They voted 10 to 1 in favor of it. • Property on Route 71 east of Route 47 Public Hearing — petitioner is seeking to rezone an old farm house from residential to B1. Residents in the area submitted a petition objecting to the rezone due to the concern that their street (Valley View Drive) might be effected negatively by traffic.
