MARION A bylaw change which would restrict the density of housing allowed to be constructed in town was shot down at the May 10 Town Meeting.
The change, which did not receive a necessary two-thirds majority of voters at the meeting, would have cut the allowable number of housing units in land zoned for high-density housing from 12 units per acre to six.
Voters passed every other question at the meeting, including one to spend $2.7 million more on the wastewater lagoon lining project and another to change the name of the Board of Selectmen to a gender-inclusive moniker, Select Board.
