Chester: Council To Discuss "Health Centre" Zoning Change

Chester council will host a pair of public hearings Wednesday to deal with two separate issues. The first public hearing surrounds the construction of a proposed radio telecommunications tower for the Western Shore Fire Department. The tower would be located on the department's property in Western Shore. The second meeting is to deal with a rezoning request for the proposed "Our Health Centre" project in Shoreham Village. The current zoning bylaws do not permit such a facility in that area of Chester. Organizers are in the midst of a major fundraising drive to raise $6 million for the project which would be home to six new doctors offices. The meetings will be held consecutively beginning at 7 O'clock at the municipal office in Chester.
