III January 26, 194E
Present: Worthen, Houdlette and Cromwell.
The Board met to discuss its various articles for the town
warrant.
qmall Lots
The article as sent in for inclusion in the town warrant was
deemed, after considerable discussion, to be not wholly satisfactory:
it did not meet the objections of the realtors which had prompted its
being drawn up. It apparently provided that adjoining small lots in a
single ownership could not be built upon unless these were comlined
into lots having 100-foot frontage and specified side yards. Moreover,
before this article could be passed by town meeting Article 37 as
passed by the town meeting last year would have to be rescinded in
part and there would be complications due to the fact that the attorney
general has not yet passed on Article 37. Therefore it was decided not
to have a hearing on this article and to ask for indefinite postpone-
ment when it comes up.
E.B.Worthen. Bill
' The Board approved payment of a bill from Mr.E.B.Worthen dated
February 1, covering advance by him of $5.25 for typing report and blue-
printing 12 copies on recommendations for amendment to the 'Zoning by-
law to be given the Selectmen.
Viano Pronerties,Inc.
Mr.Worthen had received a letter dated January 15, 1948, from
Mr.Viano suggesting changes in the C-1 zone to include land behind the
100-foot limit. Mr.Worthen with the approval of the Board replied by
letter to the effect that the Board appreciated his suggestions and
was planning to consider the whole matter in the current year.
