problem of the Whittier Farm subdivision. Chairman Trombly and Atty. Salisbury had
several telephone conferences and Atty. Salisbury will await further word from the
Planning Board.

anyone on his land. Mr. Nicetta could go on the property but he won't. The matter
will be tabled for the present.

and discussed each one.

2. Garon & LaRosa - " "" " " " "
3. George H. Fart- " "" " " " "
~. David Rennin - by a vote of 3-1, no comment. The minority vote of Mr. Chepulis
is that he feels the area requires re-zoning since this is a
business operation.
5- Henry Hyder, Jr. - Tennis Club: The Planning Board is unanimously opposed at this
time because it is presently engaged in the formulation of a
Master Plan, a great part of which will he concerned with
future development on Route 114. This also seems to be a profit
making business rather than a private tennis club as required
by the Zoning By-Law.
