Control of the Environment and Zoning in Bennington
The Bennington Planning Commission and selectmen moved to control local development focusing on mobilehomes as residences under strict rules. An advisory vote on May 6 favored environmental control, leading to interim zoning and a permanent zoning plan with a public hearing set for February 17, 1970. The Planning Commission, led by Eugene C. Burt and colleagues, earned wide praise for their work.
