The Bethel Planning and Zoning Commission has placed a one year moratorium on allowing any new crematorium applications to come before the panel. The application by Shawn McLoughlin of Monocrete up for a public hearing last night will be up for a continued hearing on May 26th. The Commission voted 4 to 3 last night to overturn their decision last summer to allow a crematorium as a special permitted use for Clarke Business Park. The Bethel Economic Development Commission opposed the proposal citing possible declines in property value and environmental concerns.
