The owners of Page’s Country Store in Dunbarton have once again delayed their meeting with the zoning board of adjustment for approval to install gas pumps on the property.
The owners of Page’s Country Store in Dunbarton have once again delayed their meeting with the zoning board of adjustment for approval to install gas pumps on the property.
According to owner David Barkie, who also canceled a meeting in November, he is still working out site plan details and a storm water pollution containment and control plan.
The new tentative date to meet with zoners is Monday, Jan. 8, said Barkie, who hopes to have everything in order by then.
Opponents to placing gas pumps at the store have been outspoken against gas service in the past, but Barkie hasn’t heard much dissention lately.
“I know people are meeting, but it seems to have quieted down for the most part,” said Barkie. “I’m sure that will change though.”
While opponents have formed a petition against the gas pumps, Barkie said his counterpetition has more than 1,000 signatures of local residents who want to see gas service offered at Page’s Country Store.
