Town's fears about wells, traffic, noise downplayed by city By Robert Preer GLOBE CORRESPONDENT A proposed $8 million facility that would process construction debris on the Brockton-Avon line has sparked a war of words between leaders in the two communities. Avon officials say the large recycling and transfer station to be located in the northern edge of Brockton within the city limits would threaten Avon's wells, inundate local streets with truck traffic, and disrupt neighborhoods with GLOBE STAFF PHOTOEVAN RICHMAN Pia Lalli leading a dance aerobics class at the Canton Club. CANTON noise and air pollution. This will cause major problems for the town of Avon," said Francis Hegarty, chairman of the Avon Board of Selectmen. "We will have a convoy of trucks coming through our town.

We have residential streets in the area, and one house that is 250 feet away. Then Brockton sends us a sarcastic letter saying this will have no effect on Avon." Brockton officials contend the project would result in the cleanup of a polluted industrial site near the Avon municipal wells. Avon's fears of traffic, noise, and other problems are overblown, according to city leaders. "This is not going to impact Avon," said Brockton Mayor John T. Yunits Jr.

"It wont affect any residential neighborhoods. I was insulted by Mr. Hegartys comments. We have always tried to work cooperatively with Avon." Reger Holdings, a West Seneca, N.Y., firm, wants to build the plant a large metal building on Wilder Street Extension to accept construction and demolition debris generated by contractors across Southeastern Massachusetts. The plant would be designed to handle 1,000 tons per day and would be the largest construction debris facility in the region.

Trucks would be able to drive into the building and unload the materials. Workers would sort the waste, some of which would be sent to recycling plants, while the rest would be shipped by train to landfills elsewhere in the country.

After an unsuccessful legal effort to close the store, which opened in 1990, the town turned to a tactic that has since become common for communities trying to keep strip clubs, adult video stores and pornography shops out it created an adult entertainment zone. East Bridgewater, Holbrook, Norwood, Stoughton, and Weymouth have nesses opening in residential neighborhoods or highly visible locations. In 1990 an adult video store chain, Video Expo, opened an outlet on Route 1 in Dedham. Three years later, two stores selling sexually explicit videos, books and magazines as well as sexual toys opened in Weymouth. A year later businessmen unveiled plans to convert a restaurant on Route 53 near Route 18 into a strip club.

Owners of Squeeze Play Sports Cafe on Route 44 in Raynham drew up plans to feature nude dancers in their establish-ADULT BUSINESS, Pag 9 an occupancy permit to sell "candles, lotions and like items," said Robert Galvin, Norwell town counsel. The property's owner, William Murphy, boarded the store up soon after it opened on Oct 25. A court hearing on the town's suit to keep the store from reopening, along with a second one filed by Murphy, was held Wednesday in Plymouth Superior Court in Brockton. A judge took the matter under advisement Norwell is hoping to restrict any future adult businesses by containing them in an adult entertainment zone. James Bou- approved zoning bylaws that effectively banish adult businesses to remote sections of towns.

In Dedham, voters approved a bylaw designating a 25-acre warehouse area near Readville as the town's adult entertainment zone. "It's way out in the middle of nowhere," said Vincent DeVirgilio, the building inspector. The issue has come to the fore recently in Norwell, where town leaders are trying to close Ozone, an adult video and toy store that opened last month. The town filed a lawsuit against store owner Richard May on the grounds that he obtained dreau, Norwell's town administrator, said the zone would be in the Accord Industrial Park, in the northwest corner of town off Route 228. He said the bylaw creating the zone would limit the size of each shop to 3,000 square feet and prohibit neon signs.

"It's a partly visible area that more appropriate for that type of business if there's going to be one in town," Boudreau said. The use of zoning laws as a tool mushroomed in the mid-1990s as towns grew nervous about the prospects of adult busi I 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 I 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 I We thought there would be three or four people xvith a portable camera.

"The MBTA, Massport and the Mass Turnpike Authority are all raising their fees." said Laliberty. "We just had a fare hike about six months ago, up to $103 from $85 for a monthly commuter rail pass.
