The Town of Wilton Planning Board shall serve as the Town's authority in administering this district, including granting any waiver(s) from this article of the Zoning Chapter by a majority vote of the Planning Board.

This green buffer shall be a no-cut, nondisturbance area of at least 100 feet from the right-of-way line. Underground utility work is exempt from the requirements of this article of the Zoning Chapter, provided that the disturbed area is restored to as close to its original condition as is practical. The Planning Board may, at its discretion, require additional plantings, screening or berming within this area.
