The Williston Development Review Board (DRB) consists of a seven member Board appointed by the Selectboard for staggered three-year terms. The role of the DRB is strictly to apply the Unified Development Bylaw (WDB) to proposed projects, with recommendations from the two advisory boards: Conservation Commission (WCC) and Historic and Design Advisory Commission (HDAC) as applicable. This includes site plan and subdivision review. The Board also reviews Certificates of Appropriateness and appeals of Zoning Administrator decisions.

The DRB meets on second and fourth Tuesdays at 7:00 pm.
