Development Review Training Modules

The Development Review Training Modules series is meant to provide an overview of various local development review topics including rules of procedure, development review skills, associated legal issues, and special topics. The audience is local land use officials in Vermont. The series of roughly 24 modules is being developed by the Vermont Law School Land Use Clinic under an agreement with the Vermont Land Use Education and Training Collaborative.

​Each module includes the contributions of many co-authors, editors and reviewers.
