Senator Herbert Ogden proposed the idea as a school finance fix. A bill would let towns opt in with all revenue directed to schools, though non resident treatment remains unresolved.

Vermont bill would let selectmen adopt zoning without referendum
The Vermont House sent a bill to the Agriculture Committee after a brief clash over empowering selectmen in small towns to enact zoning rules without a public vote. The measure aims to fix perceived bias against towns under 2,500, backed by the Vermont League of Cities and Towns, but critics fear reduced public input and greater central control. A similar proposal died in the prior session.
