400+ individuals turned out in historic numbers at the March 4th Town Board meeting to protest egregious zoning amendments. Over 60 residents spoke with the vast majority raising issues about water, sewer and overdevelopment as well as legitimate legal reasons to reject zoning changes.
Thank you for taking your time to express your opinions to the Town Supervisor and the Board. This time they had no choice but to hear you. Unfortunately, these issues are not yet resolved.
Legal representation is now scheduled to meet with the town lawyer to try and mutually agree on the zoning changes. For now, the Town Board has postponed the vote on the amendments. But as a community, we must remain active and alert!
A group of individuals, many who spoke at the March 4th meeting, are in the process of organizing the community to make sure our views continue to be heard and to put pressure on the Town Board to take into account the wishes of the full time residents.
A survey has been created to gauge what issues you feel are most important.
To be successful, we need volunteers to aid in this effort. If you feel like you would like to be engaged, even in a small way, please take a moment to complete the online survey.

In addition to the high turnout and thoughtful citizen comments at the Public Hearing, the effort to fight the zoning amendments has also been made possible by engaging legal support.
