F -i 1 PLANNING BOARD METING Wednesday, Feb. 23, 1955 Presents Ad&=, Grindle, Hathaway, Irwin, Jaquith - Snow, Stevens. Meeting opened at 7:45 o'clock. Sea The Seabury hearing was discussed. It was the eoncensus of opinion that too.much land was being asked to be rezoned since it is the use of the land which would be okayed, not any particular plan of development. It was thought that such a large area should not be opened up for building apartment houses since present plans are not binding on either party. Mr. Stevens was asked if the requirement for sewer could be pied, and he stated that he did not believe so since the law specifically states that connection with a sani- tary sewer be required in an apartment zone. Mr. Seabury was warned of this fact when he first indicated interest in developing the Bashian property. It was the decision of the Board, therefore, that it would not recommend this amendment to the Town Meeting as it would be unwise to approve scmething which would not comply with the zoning by-law.
