RE: Referral from Village Board for LWRP Consistency Review regarding Local Law
Introductory 21 of 2023 to amend Chapter 230, Zoning
DATE: November 17th, 2023
On November 8th, 2023, the Waterfront Advisory Committee (WAC) reviewed for consistency with the
Village’s Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) a referral from the Village Board listed above.
Based on the Committee’s review of the 44 LWRP policies, the Waterfront Advisory Committee made a
recommendation of consistency with the LWRP. The vote was all in favor.
The WAC reviewed the Coastal Assessment Form and no changers were noted.
The WAC reviewed the Short Environmental Assessment Form and one WAC member thought that under
the Brief Description of Proposed Action: The proposed action is a local law to amend and update the
section of the Zoning chapter of the code of the Village of Croton on Hudson to revise the regulations for
accessory apartments and permit accessory cottages, the word revise should be changed to expand.
The committee reviewed the 44 LWRP policies and determined that the following policies were relevant:
POLICY 1A: Existing planning and zoning documents should be reviewed and amended where
necessary to ensure development within the community is consistent with adopted goals and
policies.
POLICY 5: Encourage the location of development in areas where public services and facilities
essential to such development are adequate, except when such development hs special functional
requirements or other characteristics which necessitate its location in other coastal areas.
POLICY 5A: When feasible, development within the Village should be directed within the current
service area of existing water and sewer facilities or in close proxmity to areas where distribution
lines currently exist.
It is for the reasons contained in this memorandum that the WAC issues its recommendation of
consistency.
