Kovacs Denied for Showroom Expansion by ZBA in Manchester

Andrew L. Kovacs lost a Manchester Zoning Board of Adjustment appeal to extend the former Knight's T.V. building on Routes 11 and 30 into a 30 by 40 foot furniture showroom. The board ruled the plan expanded a nonconforming use and required a variance, not an extension, and denied the permit by a 5 to 3 vote. Kovacs may appeal to Superior Court or present the matter to the planning commission as the town revises its plan. The piece also covers local 4-H club activities and upcoming officer elections and events for Citizens, Woodchuckers, and Nimble Thimbles clubs.

Vermont AID funds boost WIC program in state

Vermont will receive a 4.6 million dollar grant from the U S Department of Agriculture to run the women, infants and children program through June 30, 1975.

In Montpelier, the Vermont Transportation Advisory Board postponed ruling on incorporating the highway department seven year plan, delaying decisions until after the November 5 election amid priorities for existing roads and federally funded projects.
