Pittsfield Moves Toward Zoning Change for US 12 Site
Pittsfield Township board gave first reading approval to reclassify 156 acre site at US 12 and State Rd from agricultural to general commercial and limited industrial. Ted Benson proposes 83 acres as limited industrial and 71 acres as general commercial, with 14 commercial and 9 industrial lots and potential tenants and businesses named. The plan faces a second vote at October 17 after required notices, with county planning reviews and opposition citing premature development and sewer concerns.
