Planning Board Openings
Danbury Residents, Care to lend a hand in managing your town’s Municipal Affairs ?
The Planning Board will have three vacant positions on this March's Town Ballot. Two three-year terms are expiring, and there are two years left on an already vacant position. Please consider standing for one of these openings.
The Commitment:The Planning Bpoard meets either one or two Tuesday evenings, per month, for ten months of the year. Our meetings are open to the public. Our work is to consider plans for new contruction or renovation taking place here in Danbury. We pass on these projects based on the current version of the Danbury Land Use and Zoning Ordinance. Copies of our present calendar and the Danbury LUZO are available on the Town Web Site or by visiting the Town Hall during Town Clerk Business Hours. Regular Meetings begin at 7:00pm and seldom last past 9:00pm.
The Benefit To You: From a seat on the Planning Board you get an insider's look at how Danbury Town Government works. You will also become acquainted with projects which are on the horizon. Not only will that let you be well informed when you see friends and neighbors, but you will also have a hand in advising developers and land owners on their best path to achieve the Permits they need to get started with their projects. Don't worry about details of our procedures for conducting this work. Those of us already on the Board all learned through OJT just as you will.
The Benefit to Your Town: The Town benefits greatly from your service! We live in a wonderful little village that might as well be a museum for how America lived when our Republic was young. We can only maintain this time-honored process if a small number of our interested neighbors put their fingerprints on municipal transactions. If this moves you to step up, put an oar in the water, and pull, please have a look at the calendar of events below:
The Calendar: Its pretty simple. January 22nd-31st, 2025: Declare Candidacy. Forms are available from the Town Clerk or via E-Mail.
March 11th, 2025 Danbury Municipal Elections
Want More Information? Great! Please contact Mark Zaccaria, Vice Chair, at zaccaria@att.net or 603-768-3637. You might want to drop in at Town Hall for the Budget Hearing on Jauary 9th, 2025. That's when the Town's next expense budget is released for public comment. If that doesn't frighten you away, try the Deliberative Town Meeting on February 6th, 2025. It is alwayss a Tug-O-War between those who feel Town expenditures on municipal responsibilties are needed, and those who think Property Taxes are already too high. That argument will be made, on both sides, for every Warrant Article making it way to the March 11th Ballot.
If you live in town and you're interested in serving on the Planning Board, you are not Too Young, Too Old, Too Inexperienced, or Too Fragile to make a positive contribution to town government. You may beToo scared. If that's the case, Get Over It. Please join us on the Danbury Planning Board.

2024 Town Voting Results
Danbury was not an original colonial grant, but was formed from part of the town of Alexandria to the north. In 1794, a group of Alexandria residents petitioned the state legislature to separate Alexandria into two towns due to the inconvenience of having a mountain divide the town, making it difficult for all the residents to gather in a single place.
The petition was granted in 1795, and the lower piece was incorporated as Danbury in that year. The name was suggested by a settler from Danbury, Connecticut. Later more land was added to Danbury from Hill and Wilmot.
In 1800 there were 165 people in Danbury, which on July 10, 1874 was transferred from Grafton County to Merrimack County. Today there are close to 1,300 people in Danbury.
