INTRODUCTORY LOCAL LAW
FLEX-OVERLAY PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given that there has been introduced before the Town Board of the Town of Ramapo, New York, on August 25, 2021, a local law titled “Flex-Overlay Planned Unit Development,” which local law would, pursuant to the authority under state Town Law §261-c, enact regulations for the implementation of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) floating zone to provide for new residential, commercial and mixed uses with the intention that economies of scale or creative architectural or planning concepts may be utilized by the developer without departing from the spirit and intent of the Town Zoning Code. The local law would allow the Town Board to place PUD districts on property identified for potential PUD development in the proposed Comprehensive Plan Updates for the Town’s Northeast Corridor. The Town Board would have the authority to place PUD districts as an overlay zoning for larger tracts of land in the Northeast Corridor area, which tracts may consist of one or more tax parcels in common ownership and must contain a minimum of 20 acres within the Town, which tracts must have been under common ownership and contain a minimum of 20 acres on March 1, 2021. The local law would establish application requirements and a procedure for designation, review and approval of PUD development, and set forth regulations, including density regulations, development criteria and general design criteria.
Acomplete copy of the Introductory Local Law is available for inspection at the Clerk’s Office.
NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the Municipal Home Rule Law, the Town Board of the Town of Ramapo, New York, will hold a public hearing on the Introductory Local Law at the Town Hall, 237 State Route 59, Suffern, New York, on September 13, 2021, at 7:00 P.M., at which time all persons interested therein shall be heard. This public hearing will be held as part of the same public hearing on the Draft Generic Environmental Impact Statement and Comprehensive Plan Amendment for Northeast Ramapo.
The Town of Ramapo will make every effort to assure that the hearing is accessible to persons with disabilities. Anyone requiring special assistance and/or reasonable accommodations should contact the Town Clerk.
