Dailey withdraws asphalt plant application in Manchester
About 30 residents crowded the Manchester Town Office for a Zoning Board hearing as Dailey Construction announced the withdrawal of its Manchester asphalt plant proposal. The Shaftsbury operation had been praised by the Vermont Agency of Environmental Conservation, but strong local opposition, including a 470-name petition, prompted the withdrawal. The firm may refile if another company seeks the Route 7 site and road work progresses.
