Attention! Essex Property Owners A private developer has submitted a petition to the Essex Planning and Zoning Commission which will amend the Essex Zoning Regulations to allow multi-family development on selected parcels within the Rural Residential Zone which currently restricts de- velopment to single family homes on two acre lots. If adopted, this amendment would significantly alter the character of the Rural Residential Zone and likely have a negative effect on property values of homes near those selected parcels. The Essex Planning and Zoning Commission will be holding a public hearing on this amendment petition on Tuesday, September 5th at the Essex Town Hall at 7:00 PM. On August 1st, more than 100 Essex residents voiced their unanimous disapproval at the previous public hearing. If you agree that this proposed amendment is not in the best interest of the residents of Essex, please attend: Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting on September 5th at 7 PM, let your voice be heard. This PUBLIC NOTICE was run twice the Valley Courier Jul 20th & Jul 27th.
