March 31st Public Workshop Materials


The New Scotland Hamlet Zoning Study Advisory Committee would like to thank those that were able to make it to the public workshop on Thursday, March 31st at Voorheesville High School.  This was the second and final public workshop for the planning study.  We understand that many residents have family, civic, and other obligations or mobility limitations, which prevented them from attending the meeting.  It is important that Town residents, landowners, and stakeholders all have the opportunity to review the proposed draft zoning language and concepts, comment, and provide feedback.  For this reason, we have made all the public workshop documents available here.  

If this is the first you've heard of the New Scotland Hamlet Zoning Study I encourage you to visit the About the study page on this website. This outlines the history and impetus for this study, as well as where the funding is coming from, and who is involved.  There is also a Previous Studies page that lists all previous planning and zoning initiatives for the Town as well as other related planning projects for the Capital Region.  

The presentation explains the previous Hamlet Master Plan and ongoing planning efforts in the New Scotland hamlet area.  You can view the presentation from yesterday's meeting below:
