CONWAY — The owners of North Conway Grand Hotel are asking a Superior Court judge to reverse the Conway Planning Board's decision to approve a Market Basket supermarket proposed near the hotel due to concerns about traffic and parking.
The planning board unanimously gave conditional site-plan approval on Nov. 8 to the owners of Settlers Green for a 69,845-square-foot Market Basket store between Barnes Road and Common Court.
