Springport Planning Board requests Town Board timeline for Staehr Mining rezoning
Summary
The Planning Board moved for the Town Board to provide its notification timeline after the Town Board rezoned the Staehr Mining site from agricultural to industrial; the request was described as necessary "so that we be fair, firm, honest, and consistent for any future requests."
The Springport Planning Board on Aug. 20 moved that the Town Board provide the Planning Board with a timeline of the Town Board's notification process surrounding the recent rezoning of the Staehr Mining property from Agricultural to Industrial. The motion was made by Secretary Karen T. Luziani and seconded by Lance Winter; the minutes record that Karen will email Dave Schenck to request the timeline. The minutes do not include a vote tally for this motion.
Board members discussed the Town Board's rezoning decision during the meeting, and Luziani framed the timeline request as a transparency measure: "so that we be fair, firm, honest, and consistent for any future requests." The Planning Board also said it will attend the Town Board meeting on Sept. 8 to better understand the rezoning decision, and it scheduled its own next meeting for Sept. 17 at 7 p.m.
