ri Recording minutes : Deb Austic
The meeting began at 7 : 40 p . m . Alex reported that there was no regular Planning
Board business to attend to . The group moved to review of the map and consideration of
the area adjacent to the village as discussed at the previous meeting . The group proceeded
to identify areas more sensitive to development where views should be preserved. These
areas were shaded on the base map .
The group discussed how rapidly residential space could be filled up and potential
ways to protect the town while working on the new ordinance . Dave suggested something
similar to the moratorium which allowed the rezoning of the business district on Route 96
near Perry City Road . The group considered the possibility of a temporary residential
zoning restriction that would require a 5 acre lot, 500 foot frontage, permanent
foundation, and permanent garage or accessory building of at least 600 square feet .
The group discussed the reasons supporting such action, including protection of
the quantity and quality of water, protect open space while working on the ordinance,
consistent with the comprehensive plan, protect road frontage and safety of fewer
driveways, and concern for the longevity and quality of housing stock within the town.
Doug agreed to contact Bruce about the possibility of enacting such a
requirement. The group identified the area surrounding Jacksonville as the priority for the
next meeting, including Halseyville Rd, to Mekeel Rd, to Colegrove Rd. to Willow Creek
to Gorge Rd. The next meeting was set for Wednesday , March 22 . The meeting ended at
9 : 40 p.m .
