At the May 11 monthly meeting of the Candor Town Board, Ed Evans, chairman of the Candor Town Planning Board, reported on completing the final draft of the changes to the Seasonal Use Law. He talked about the planning board changing the wording to make the law more readable, but now it is in the hands of the town board.Â
 Former town board member Matt Crowe was on hand asking a lot of questions about the Seasonal Use Law and the figures the Planning Board had come up with. Evans tried to answer some of his questions, but the town board is still reviewing, and Supervisor Bill Strosahl mentioned it will be publicizing the changes in the paper and having a public hearing before anything is passed.Â
