DARIEN The overriding message out of Darien’s recent public hearing about proposed zoning bills in Hartford was that local control should be protected.
A dozen community members raised concerns Tuesday about the urbanization of the town, the destruction of historical homes and the threat to future water supply. The hearing was held as part of the Planning & Zoning Commission’s independent review of the zoning bills that some Fairfield County municipalities have criticized.
