Corcoran Zoning Appeal Ends as Village Moves Toward New Law
The Corcoran suit against the Village of Bennington ends with a final decree in favor of the village. Judge Dale W. Brooks dissolves the May injunction and rules the case premature, permitting Corcoran to sue again after the new ordinance is enacted. The zoning panel resumes work, hearings explain changes, and a 1964 village vote will decide adoption.
