The Natural Resources Board (NRB) is an independent entity in the state government of Vermont that oversees the administration of Act 250, the state's land use and development law. Enacted in 1970, Act 250 aims to protect the environment while promoting sustainable development, preserving the state's rural character, and supporting its environmental diversity.
The NRB's website provides easy access to information about the purpose and history of Act 250, as well as the land use permit application process. Through ongoing initiatives and improvements, the NRB is working to make the entire process more transparent, straightforward, and predictable, ensuring that only projects constituting development or subdivision, as defined by the Act 250 statute, require an Act 250 permit.
