Plan Board Palls As Council Stalls

Three council members oppose a section of the proposed zoning by law and no decision was reached on adoption at Monday's meeting. Planning board chairman Edwin Wilson presented the bylaw with the full board present, noting map changes including commercial designation for a highway strip, industrial status for part of Moore farm, and residential zoning for a River Drive service and storage area. Reeve Allen Dr McGilvray and Dr Hale argued against restricting residential building in industrial land, while Wilson warned against piecemeal zoning and possible future blocks to a full plan. Council referred the bylaw to the town solicitor for legality and planned board reconsideration before a future vote.
