of permitted uses for each area.
The planning board discussed and revised the nomenclatures for each areas so
as to make them more descriptive.
The planning board discussed the avisability of requesting an additional legal
consultant a person with wide experience in zoning problems -- to assist Mrs.
Amdur in reviewing the ordinance. It was agreed to leave the decision to Mrs.
Amdur as to whether she wished to call in additional legal consultant to help her.
Mr. Ogden stated that he understood that the court threw out the zoning

such brief encounter, and it was agreed that all planning board members would take
home the report, read it and become very familiar with it, and would reconvene
for a work session in one week (April 25). Mr. Ogden suggested that Mr. Niederkorn
be requested to attend; Mr. Curtiss agreed to contact him to arrange this.
Chairman Curtiss expressed the hope that the Planning Board °s public hearing
on the zoning ordinance could be scheduled for tray, thus making it possible that
the Town Board's hearing could be arranged for June. If necessary, the Planning
Board determ -Ined to meet every week until the ordinance could be ready for a May
public hearing.
