Council posts zoning amendments for public review, approves lot splits and accepts trustee resignation
Summary
Council posted General Business District and microbusiness zoning amendments for 30‑day review, approved two lot‑split applications for a property owner, and accepted a trustee resignation, directing staff to post the vacancy.
The New Haven Village Council took several planning and personnel actions at its July meeting: it posted proposed zoning amendments for the General Business District and a related microbusiness standard for 30‑day public review, approved two lot‑split applications, and accepted a resignation from a trustee.
Planning staff and trustees said the General Business District language required cleanup following recent rezoning and a proposed library project; council moved to post the amendments for public review and return next month for action. The microbusiness amendment, which would define and set standards for small retail/service uses in downtown and general business districts and remove small‑scale manufacturing from those zones, was likewise posted for review.
Applicant Joe Lombardo appeared to present two lot‑split applications that planning staff and engineering recommended for approval; council approved each parcel split by motion and support. Trustees emphasized these were routine approvals following the planning commission’s recommendations.
On personnel, the council received and accepted a resignation from Miss Hashem, who moved out of the village. The council moved to receive and file the resignation letter and to post the open board seat and relevant application materials for applicants to apply before the next deadline.
The council scheduled follow‑up on zoning amendments and said staff will publish amendment drafts so residents can review proposed changes during the 30‑day comment period.
