ResolutionThe following Resolution was introduced by
COUNCILMAN JENSEN, who moved its adoption:
WHEREAS, the Town of Wappinger had referred to the
Dutchess County Planning Board a proposed Ordinance
Amending Section 412.02 of the Town Joning Ordinance,
and
WHEREAS, the Dutchess County Planning Board, on
January 17, 1973, reported to the Town of ;Wappinger that
it recommended against the adoption of said Ordinance, and
WHEREAS, the Town Board published notice of a Public
Hearing on said amendment and conducted said Public Hearing
on January 23, 1973,
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that said Ordinance
as proposed, be adopted for the following reasons:
1. The density bonus was proposed and enacted prior
to the establishment of any Town sewer or water districts.
2. The lands in the Town should be established as
a certain density without regard to establishment of water
or sewer system. If a parcel is zoned R-40 or RD -40, it
should be used at that density. If it is to be used at
a lower density, it should be a matter of a zoning amendment
by the Town Board after a full and complete public hearing.
3. The adoption of this amendment is in effect a
moratorium in that the entire Zoning Ordinance of the Town
of Wappinger is now subject to a review by Frederick P.
Clark Associates and many amendments will be proposed,
some of which will be rejected and some adopted.
