Scotland P&Z reviews enforcement cases; town pursues $40,000 owed to zoning
Summary
At its Jan. 27 special meeting the Town of Scotland Planning & Zoning Commission was briefed on enforcement matters including an immovable tractor-trailer on Gager Hill Road, a stayed eviction for the O'Neil property and ongoing efforts through the Department of Agriculture to recover about $40,000 owed to the zoning department.
The Town of Scotland Planning & Zoning Commission received administrative and enforcement updates at its Jan. 27 special meeting, including follow-ups on nuisance and property cases and a town effort to recover funds owed to the zoning department.
I. Kisluk reported that a tractor-trailer parked on Gager Hill Road “has not been moved” and said a letter has been sent; she will perform a follow-up visit in one to two weeks. The minutes list this as the first item in the enforcement report.
The minutes also note the O'Neil property on Brooklyn Turnpike was granted a stay and the planned eviction did not occur. According to the minutes, W. O'Connor at town hall has worked with the Department of Agriculture to pursue roughly $40,000 that the minutes state is owed to the zoning department; the town’s attorney will be handling the matter going forward.
Kisluk said she has not yet received a response on the outstanding case at 489 Kemp Road and will follow up and report back to the commission. Commissioners also discussed the possibility that state commissioner training could move online; D. George asked whether that change would affect new training and Jakubowski said he would follow up with staff.
The meeting closed after routine business: the commission approved earlier minutes (recorded as made by R. Manning and J. Troeger) and R. Manning moved to adjourn at 7:35 p.m.; M. Garrison seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
What’s next: staff will perform enforcement follow-ups on Gager Hill Road and Kemp Road and the town attorney will pursue recovery of funds for zoning.
