Rezoning Snag Delays Lawson Store Plan in City Council
City Council sent back the Lawson Store rezoning request to the Planning and Zoning Commission after Service Director Morley Price labeled it spot zoning. Norbert J. Barman seeks to rezone a lot at League Cline and Washington Streets from residential to neighborhood business to build the store. Commission had recommended approval on Nov. 14. The action follows the city’s recent acquisition near Marshall Street and a Washington Street closure to ease a hazardous intersection near League Street School. Price argues the move would undo recent traffic improvements and calls it spot zoning. Other business included a 18 cent gas-rate cut, a Route 20 resurfacing cost share, and notices for upcoming civic meetings and elections.
