“We would like some of the
benefits which you provide to
your other customers.”
—Mayor Dean Morehouse
Nan Thomasson said that “I thought in 1986 that the area should have been mixed use. I'm ready to propose a motion to rezone . . . the nice thing about mixed use is the checks and balances, the special use permit requirements. There’s lots of protection, and that makes me comfortable with mixed use.”
Mayor Morehouse said that, because he owns property on the block, he intended to abstain on the vote.
With no further discussion, the Council approved the rezoning of the four lots, an amendment to the town’s comprehensive plan to reflect the rezoning and a change in the town zoning map to show the change. Mrs. Thomasson, Mrs. Willis, Peter Skowronski and Brad Fisher voted in favor; Mr. Morehouse abstained.
Utility hearing draws heat
The Council and Planning Commission also held a second public hearing to consider an amendment to the zoning ordinance to allow the placement of public utilities underground “by right” — that is, without a permit.

would not be feasible to'
put existing lines
underground. Any costs to the
company would be passed on
to its customers.”
