CONWAY — At their meeting last Thursday, the Conway Planning Board unanimously OK'd amendments to the town's parking standards. The changes allow applicants to use alternative parking demand standards, including those published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers and Urban Land Institute, to determine the minimum parking spaces for proposed developments.
In other business, the board accepted the resignation of planning board member Bill Barbin.
