He added that there is a no build zone on Lot No 2 and it is indicated by the area dotted on the plat. Mr. MacLachlan asked what that meant. Mr. Miller said it had nothing to do with the proposed subdivision but it was recorded in deed.

Mr. Miller asked the public if there were any questions. There being none he closed the public hearing. Mr. Miller asked the board if there were any questions. There being none Mr. Perron made a motion to accept the proposed subdivision as presented. Mr. Harrington seconded the motion and the motion carried unanimously.

Draft Zoning Amendment

At the August workshop a draft amendment for formula businesses in the Village to be placed on the warrant was discussed. At the end of the meeting it was decided that Mr. Harrington would draft a zoning amendment from what was discussed and present it at the September regular meeting. The board approved of Mr. Harrington’s draft and it will be presented to Todd Horner and Carol Ogilvie for their input about the verbiage at the board’s joint meeting later this month. The draft will be presented to the public when there is public hearing.

The commercial zone in the village is described in the zoning ordinances Article VI, Section E-6.

More work has to be done on specifically identifying the buildings in the village commercial district.
