No decision was made by the town plan commission pending further investigation of and action on this bill.
 The hearing was one of the most gratifying held in a number of years, as approximately 40 people were present and all took great interest in the proceedings, expressing their opinions. There was divergence of opinion as to where the lines should be established. but this was expected and the great interest in the matter made the hearing a suc- cess.
