On today’s show, we head over to the village of Memramcook, where a proposal to rezone a property along route 925 to make way for another gravel pit has residents distressed, and coming out in big numbers to air their objections at last night’s village council meeting. CHMA talks with two of the many residents who got up to speak at the public hearing, which lasted nearly four hours.

Plus in briefs, Pulitzer prize winning journalist David Shribman will be at Convocation Hall tonight to talk and answer questions about the upcoming US election. And the Dorchester Moving Forward Cooperative is hosting a free UNB legal clinic next Friday, October 25.
