Maybrook board authorizes local law rewrite to narrow Traditional Downtown Design District uses
Summary
The board voted 4–0 to authorize the village attorney to draft a local law removing multiple‑dwelling units, public passenger transportation stations/terminals, certain eating establishments (drive‑in/open front/curb service) and vocational schools from the Traditional Downtown Design District; the measure advances to the local law drafting stage.
At the work session portion of the meeting, Mayor Leahy reported the board conducted the first comprehensive review of the Traditional Downtown Design District (TDD) since 2017. Deputy Mayor Woznick moved, and Trustee Capozzoli seconded, a motion authorizing the village attorney to draft a local law that would remove several uses from the TDD, including multiple dwellings, public passenger transportation stations or terminals, eating establishments with drive‑in/open front/curb service, and vocational schools. The motion passed 4 ayes, 0 nays.
The authorization begins the formal drafting process; the board did not adopt a final local law at the meeting. Mayor Leahy framed the action as a regulatory update and staff were directed to have the attorney prepare the proposed local law for subsequent review, public notice, and the statutory hearing process required for adoption.
