The Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee (CPSC) will hold its third outreach meeting Thursday, May 22, at Town Hall, 177 Hillside Avenue, to hear your comments on the draft Comprehensive Plan for the unincorporated area of the Town of Greenburgh. (The villages have their own plans.) We have varied the meeting days to foster broader participation. Your input is important.
We have responded to many of the questions/comments we received at the first two Outreach Meetings and by email sent to PlanZone@GreenburghNY.com. Responses to additional questions/comments will be provided by the CPSC in the coming weeks. I was hoping to get these responses posted on the Plan’s Web site this evening but that was not possible so to get them to you I posted them temporarily on the Town’s Website. Click here to download the PDF document. Tomorrow the Q and A document will also appear on the GreenburghComprehensivePlan.com Web site.
*** PLEASE NOTE ***
All residents of unincorporated Greenburgh should have received a postcard two weeks ago regarding tomorrow’s meeting. The meeting dates for June were incorrectly listed on the postcard. The card should have contained the following:

The Plan is a 20 year vision of future growth in the unincorporated area and addresses issues related to land use, cohesive neighborhoods, open space, recreation, transportation, healthy and sustainable buildings, affordable housing, historic preservation, Town infrastructure, economic development and corridor opportunities related to the new Tappan Zee Bridge. It is designed to maintain and enhance our residents' quality of life, promote community character and support a strong and diverse tax base.
We look forward to public input on the draft Plan, which is available on the Plan’s website (www.GreenburghComprehensivePlan.com) and also as a downloadable PDF on the homepage of the Town of Greenburgh (www.GreenburghNY.com). Each map of the Plan is also downloadable as a separate high resolution PDF with zoom-in capabilities. Hard copies are available at the Greenburgh Public Library and in Town Hall in the offices of the Town Clerk and in the Department of Community Development and Conservation.
Although the document is lengthy (comprehensive), we urge you to read it and share your opinion by attending one of the upcoming meetings or by emailing comments to PlanZone@GreenburghNY.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
Francis Sheehan, Councilman and CPSC Chair
Town of Greenburgh
