Summary

The board agreed to form a working group (two board members and two residents) to draft comments on the Site Plan Review law, then send notes to a consultant and town attorney, targeting three to four meetings from June through August for revision work.

Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson asked the board to set dates and coordinate with the Planning Board to revise the Site Plan Review law. He proposed forming a working group of two board members and two residents, compiling that group's notes, sending them to a consultant, then having the town attorney review before returning the draft to the board. The proposed timeline runs June through August with three to four meetings.

Board members discussed the sequencing of work and whether to shift to monthly meetings to accommodate the schedule; Teresa Cheetham‑Palen recommended the sequence Work Group → Town Board → Consultant → Town Attorney → Town Board. The board did not adopt a formal ordinance at the meeting but agreed to the multi‑step approach and tentative schedule for stakeholder engagement.
