Kurth said the business now houses a Varney Auto Parts and Hardware store. When renovations are completed, the building will house an Aubuchon Hardware store and Varney’s Insurance Services, and another small business, yet to be named.

Board members’s concerns Monday night dealing with curb cuts, landscaping and traffic circulation were resolved.

The board also approved a preliminary subdivision review for a 19-lot single-family residential subdivsion by Deer Run Estates. The subdivision will be located on Chamberlain Street, between 44 and 52 Eastern Ave.
