The Granby Planning and Zoning Commission will meet tonight to consider the application for the use of a property at 59 Meadow Brook Rd. for the non-profit organization Bandit's Place.   The public hearing for this application was closed on Jan. 25.  The meeting begins at 7 p.m. at the Town Hall Meeting Room.
