Dear Town of Danby Residents,
I hope you are all enjoying the spring weather!
Tonight there will not be a Planning Group meeting – the Planning Group meetings have been put on hold while the Conservation Working Group, Hamlet Working Group, and Ag Working Group all proceed at full speed to update the zoning and end the subdivision moratorium as quickly as possible.
The Hamlet Working Group last met April 23rd a video of that meeting is available here: https://youtu.be/IJdh4u8Bn4M
At the meeting we discussed a proposal for zoning in 2 Hamlet Zones that would make it much easier to invest in the Hamlet. That proposal is available here: https://towndanby.digitaltowpath.org:10768/content/Generic/View/13:field=documents;/content/Documents/File/1262.docx
Hamlet Working Group meetings will continue on the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month at 7pm and can be found on the Town’s Calendar www.townofdanbyny.org/calendar
The Conservation Working Group meets this Friday at 7 via Zoom.
The Conservation Working Group meeting will discuss a proposal from Joel Gagnon for reorienting the approach to the Low Density Residential Zone – which you can find here: https://towndanby.digitaltowpath.org:10768/content/Generic/View/12:field=documents;/content/Documents/File/1264.docx
We will also discuss a first full draft of a map based on the zones discussed in previous meetings – breaking the Low Density Residential Zone into 4 new zones. That map now covers the whole town and is available here: https://towndanby.digitaltowpath.org:10768/content/Generic/View/12:field=documents;/content/Documents/File/1263.pdf
Conservation Working Group meetings will continue on the 1st and 3rd Friday of the month at 7pm and can be found on the Town’s Calendar www.townofdanbyny.org/calendar
The Ag Working Group will have their first meeting this Saturday at 11am in person @ Dotson Park, near the pavilion.
All working group meetings are open discussions with anyone in the Town able to fully participate and guide the Zoning Update and the future development of the Town, please come and participate if you are available.
