<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif">A Friday question for my municipal peeps…for petitioned zoning amendments, who is responsible for paying for the legal advertisements for the statutory public hearing? The petitioner
(s)? The property owner? The municipality? Here is Hudson this cost is borne by my Department’s Ad budget; and, as you all know, the cost for legal ads adds up quick. Lately, we are getting a lot of petitioned articles (many we don’t even support), and this
cost is wiping out my budget.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
