[RP TownTalk] 7-Eleven: Planning Board overturns Town Council recommendation

[Dwight Holmes]

Alan-
Many thanks to you and everyone on the Council for all of your blood, sweat
& tears expended on this. Very sorry to hear of the planning board's
decision and especially sorry to hear of the broader consequences of that
decision you refer to.
