Board approves allowing alternates to serve on both Planning Board and ZBA after public hearing with no comments
Summary
After reading a public‑hearing notice, the Town Board opened and closed a hearing on proposed local law number 2 of 2024 with no public comment, then moved and approved a resolution authorizing alternates to serve on both the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals.
Chair read the public‑hearing notice for proposed local law number 2 of 2024, which would allow alternates to serve on both the Planning Board and the Zoning Board of Appeals. The notice identified the Hague Community Center as the hearing location and invited interested persons to speak.
The board opened the public hearing and, with no in‑person or online speakers recorded, moved to close it. Jack Bass moved to authorize alternates to serve on both boards and Chris Richards seconded; the motion passed on a voice vote. The board then proceeded with routine business.
Why this matters: enabling alternates to serve on both panels can increase flexibility for staffing hearings and ensuring quorum, and it changes how the planning and appeals functions are staffed in the town.
