Town board readies ADU public hearing; staff recommends leaving record open
Summary
Town staff reminded the board of an accessory dwelling unit public hearing scheduled for the next night, reported outreach to civic associations (transcribed as "Greenberg Civic Associations") and recommended not closing the hearing to allow more public feedback and produce an FAQ later.
Town staff told the board an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) public hearing was scheduled for the next night and urged the board to keep the hearing open to gather more public input.
The presenter said outreach had included an e-blast to residents and a separate distribution to civic association leaders, and that they had met with the group transcribed as the "Greenberg Civic Associations" to answer questions. The presenter said, “My recommendation is gonna be not to close that hearing. I think we're gonna get a lot of good feedback,” and proposed organizing comments and creating an FAQ after the hearing to address common questions.
Board members asked whether Fulton Park Civic Association had been included; the presenter confirmed they were on the distribution list. One member suggested waiting until Miss Francis (a member involved in land use) returns before voting on any legislation related to ADUs.
Staff and members said they expected both supportive and critical comments and that they would schedule a second hearing if needed.
