Summary

Members discussed a proposed local law that would allow a step-down in zoning based on specified criteria but did not take formal action; the law must be submitted to New York State after a board vote and may take up to 30 days to be filed.

A proposed local law that would add a "step-down" provision to Airmont's zoning code was discussed during the meeting but was not formally voted on.

A staff member said the local law, which the board of trustees first discussed at a prior meeting, would permit using the zoning code to step down a zoning designation under certain criteria. The staff member said the law has been posted on the village website and that the trustees had not yet voted on it; she anticipated the trustees might vote at the April or May meeting but did not set a date. She said that after the trustees vote, the law must be submitted to New York State and that the state has up to 30 days to file it; staff will notify the board when the law becomes effective.

Board members did not take a formal vote on the proposed law during the session. No ordinance number, specific code sections, or vote timetable was provided in the transcript.
