SPECIAL TOWN MEETINGS ON ZONING
During 1946 there were three Special Town Meetings held on Zoning. As a copy of the Warrant for each is on record with the Town Clerk, it is deemed necessary to print in this report only those articles in each war- rant upon which action was taken in each meeting. Reprinting of the entire Warrant for each meeting would take many pages in the Report at an unnecessary added expense.
