On Monday May 20th 6 PM, at the Helen Keller Cafetorium, P&Z will hold a hearing on the proposed zoning regulations.

We are very concerned with these regulations as they restrict how homeowners may use their properties including but not limited to restrictions on home businesses, storage of boats , trailers and other recreational vehicles. Also included are descriptions of permissible businesses in the newly created Easton Village District.
