There seems to be much confusion regarding the wording of Article 13 on the Town Meeting Warrant for the town of New Haven. Here is some clarification.
The land in question, parcel no. 0787, belongs to Steve and Marcia Dupoise, and is located on the southwest corner of Belden Falls Road and Route 7. The land is currently zoned as Rural Agricultural. A NO vote rejects the zoning change for Parcel no. 0787 and results in the parcel remaining in the Rural Agricultural zone. A YES vote supports the zoning change for Parcel no. 0787 and results in that parcel being zoned Highway Commercial.
If you would like to see this agricultural land remain as it is, vote NO. If you would like to see this land become commercially developed, vote YES.
