CONWAY — The Conway Planning Board recently voted that a service dog kennel proposed for the former Town & Country snowmobile rental and sales site in East Conway did not represent a significant change of use and therefore did not require full site-plan review by the board.
Shawn Bergeron of Bergeron Technical Services of Conway appeared before the planning board on Sept. 23 on behalf of property owner Sally Marr and buyer Robin Crocker of East Conway.
