Pursuant to the authority of Section 8-4a of
the Connecticut General Statutes, the Zoning Commission and the Planning
Commission shall be consolidated into one Commission to be known as
the "Wilton Planning and Zoning Commission."
Said Wilton Planning and Zoning Commission shall
have all the powers and duties of both a Planning Commission and a
Zoning Commission as provided in the General Statutes and shall supersede
the existing Planning Commission and the existing Zoning Commission.
Said Commission shall be comprised of nine elected
members, not counting nonvoting members, who shall be electors of
the Town of Wilton holding no salaried municipal office and whose
term of office, method of election and method of filling vacancies
shall be fixed by ordinance.
The First Selectman shall also be a member of
said Commission, but without voting privileges.
Until the nine members of said Commission are
elected as provided by ordinance, the membership of the Wilton Planning
and Zoning Commission shall be filled by appointments to be made by
the Board of Selectmen, which appointments, insofar as possible, shall
be made from the membership of the existing Commissions.
The consolidation of the Zoning Commission and
the Planning Commission into the one Commission shall be effective
as of June 1, 1962.
All regulations promulgated by either the existing
Planning Commission or the existing Zoning Commission prior to June
1, 1962, shall continue in full force and effect, except to the extent
that they are inconsistent with the consolidated Commission, until
modified, repealed or superseded in accordance with law.
