The State of Vermont Natural Resources Board is an independent entity overseeing the administration of Act 250, Vermont's land use and development law, enacted in 1970 to protect the environment in balance with sustainable development. Their goal is to preserve Vermont's rural character, natural environment, and environmental diversity, fostering distinctive communities with a strong sense of place.
The NRB's website provides information on the purpose and history of Act 250, as well as the land use permit application process. Through initiatives like process improvement events and collaboration with the Agency of Natural Resources, they aim to make the Act 250 application process more clear, straightforward, and predictable for all stakeholders.
