Mayor Frank Sheffield stated that the Town of Hillsborough took the position of supporting the rezoning on the basis it felt the location to be desirable for an Office/Industrial Park and the Town Board did make a commit- ment to provide water and sewer service to the site subject to the approval of the plans and specifications by the Town and the State.

Attorney Geoffrey Gledhill indicated that the statute of limitations had already run on those past decisions. VOTE: AYES, 4; NOES, 1 (Commissioner Marshall). 74 JANE, I.
