Staff included $150,000 in the zoning revisions line while noting a grant application to New York State was submitted last week; revenue will be shown only if the grant is awarded.

Town staff told the board that smart‑growth zoning revisions are reflected as a $150,000 expense in the 2027 planning budget and that the town submitted a grant application to New York State by the deadline last week.

Josh Artuso said the zoning revision is the main increase in planning for the year and staff are hopeful the state grant will cover much of the expense; he cautioned the budget shows the cost until the town knows whether the award will be made.
