Zoning issues – Trevor Beauregard spoke for the Planning Board stating the Planning Board recommended both the zoning item adding Sports Betting to the Table of uses and the item increasing the quota of marijuana establishments in the City. Paul DeMeo appeared and complained that the meeting was illegal due to his belief that a single City Councilor can not propose a Zoning Amendment, only City Council can in his opinion.
