Report of Planning Board


The Wilbraham Planning Board presents its annual report for the year 1934.


Attention has been devoted during the past year to the study of what has been accomplished by the boards of other towns working with the various civic organizations within the town towards a common goal.


In the opinion of the board the beautifying of our westerly approaches to the town need special emphasis due to the ex- tensive improvements made and contemplated by Springfield along our western boundary, and an attempt has been made to bring property owners together towards this end.


Hearings were held twice at the Town Office on petitions for amendments to the zoning ordinance.


Respectfully submitted,


IRA W. BELCHER, Chairman, RAYMOND H. BEACH, STACY B. BETZLER, LLOYD M. HOOVER, Secretary.
