Answer: No answer was recorded at the meeting. Question: (Resident) Is there any guarantee that this center cannot become a 24-hour facility? Answer: (Applicant) That type of "change of use", from a day shelter, would require a Planning and Zoning Board decision. The Industrial District does not allow a 24-hour facility.
