Acting chair Krys Cail called the meeting to order at 7 : 45 p .m. Kristin Sosnicki
from Tompkins County Planning presented the Planning Board an outline of suggestions
to incorporate into the zoning revision to meet the goals of the comprehensive plan.
Kristin said that revision of a zoning ordinance would generally between $2000 and
$6000 depending on the amount of work required of County Planning and the amount of
work Board members would do . Kristin also suggested that a year to do the revision was
a reasonable timeframe and described the services County Planning could provide
including research, technical assistance, and map-making.
The Board briefly discussed public involvement, Town Board involvement, and
seeking input from the village . Kristin said the Board could do public information or the
county could do it. Doug suggested that the Town Board would amend the current zoning
to include a new map and definitions for Cl , C2 , and C3 if the Planning Board could
define those areas . Doug suggested development in the Town would be held up until
rezoning was completed .
Kristin agreed to provide a scope of services and timeline including cost estimate
to the Town for consideration. Kristin also suggested information sessions from the
Department of State or NY Planning Federation. The Board discussed a few zoning
techniques including PUD , special permits, and SEQR. Krys pointed out that a few of the
items on Kristin' s list were already completed. Alex gave board members copies of
preliminary site plans for the Shur Save and Veronica' s Gardens . The board agreed to
review for discussion at the next meeting . The board set the next meeting for Wednesday,
April 28 at 7 : 30 p .m .
