Redevelopment Plan Outlined for 22 Town Leaders
William H. Leys outlined public city redevelopment benefits to 22 local men at the Viking Hotel. He urged tapping a 75 percent federal subsidy for redeveloping rundown areas, noting Bristol can apply for a planning grant with no heavy taxpayer cost and repayment only if approved. The session followed town action naming a redevelopment agency and featured local officials and four of five nominated agency members.
