During its November regular meeting, the Frankford Town Council voted 5-0 to accept the Town Planning and Zoning Commission and town manager’s recommendation to ease the requirements for both (i) minimum lot size (from 6,000 to 5,000 sq. ft.) and (ii) minimum lot width (from 60′ to 45′) in the residential planned community (RPC) district.
