ORDINANCE 96-15
CLOSING UNDEVELOPED SECTION OF PROSPECT STREET FROM
LOT 9B WEST TO VALLEY STREET (File No. 9-96)
WHEREAS, after studying the Town's system of streets and alleys to determine which streets and alleys

WHEREAS, the Town held a public hearing on June 4, 1996 on said proposal after advertisement in
