Salon owner Lynn MacKay is expressing her frustration with the town of Quispamsis and their planning advisory committee.
Members from the community were also against it due to concerns of having a large commercial property in a neighbourhood.
She tells CHSJ News she didn't get a fair shake as her proposal had adequate parking and there are already large businesses across the street from the neighbourhood.
She also claims that her previous run-in with the town's dog by-laws had an influence on the town's final decision.
