New Brandon shopping center discussed

The Brandon Development Review Board put off discussion of the application for a new shopping cenrter on Route 7. About 40 people came to the hearing with questions about traffic, noise and other issues. Two of them were concerned the trucks delivering to the site would produce noise above the limit of 70 decibels. As to the potential increase in truck traffic, developer William McCabe said Hannaford already sends trucks past the site to deliver to Rutland. The board will take up the matter at its next meeting on October 28th.
