Bennington ZBA approves furniture and gift shop plan
The Bennington Zoning Board of Adjustment approved a furniture store gift shop at 60 West Road on property owned by Dr. Peter H. Schaad but rejected a restaurant component. The vet plans a connecting building between barns to cost about 25,000 to 335,000, with parking and architectural style to suit the rural entrance to Bennington. The board restricted food service, required restrooms connected to public water and sewer, a 40 square foot sign, and adequate parking, while Schaad may return later with firmer eatery plans.
