By DAVID CARKHUFF/THE LACONIA DAILY SUNGILMANTON — At the Historic District Commission on Tuesday, the operators of the Corner Slice convenience store and gas station received assurance that the town is reviewing its sign ordinances, after a flap concerning a standalone "open" banner at the historic district business. The Planning Board, the Historic District Board and the Zoning Board are reviewing all sign ordinances, confirmed Roy Buttrick, member of the Gilmanton Planning Board. A 15-foot flag with the word "open" on it was taken down at the Corner Slice, a business that has faced a host of regulatory hurdles before it opened last summer. Annette Andreozzi, land use administrator for Gilmanton, said the Corner Slice "was trying to do something that didn't fit into the rules," prompting the commission review. A smaller flag continues to protrude from the side of the store, located near the corner of Route 140 and Route 107.
