Kingston Rejects Growth Zoning Change
Plan to create Transit Orientated Development District (TOD) and refocus growth was rejected by voters at a special town meeting in Kingston, MA.
Special town meeting voters rejected a proposal to create a TOD near a commuter rail station. The proposal was hailed by proponants as a tool to manage growth and denounced by opponants as something that would increase traffic conjestion and strain the water and school systems.
