This seven-person, Selectmen-appointed board meets as needed to hear petitions for special
permits or variances from the terms of the Zoning Bylaw. The board also hears
petitions from those unable to obtain either a permit or enforcement action from the
Building Inspector, as well as appeals of actions taken by the Building Inspector.Lincoln
adopted its first zoning bylaw in 1929. Most of Lincoln is classified for
single-family residential use (R-1). In 1929, the minimum residential lot size was
10,000 square feet. In 1936, this changed to 40,000 sf and, in 1955, it was changed
again to the current "two acre" or 80,000 sf minimum. Copies of the Zoning
Bylaw and the Zoning Map may be obtained from the Town Offices.
