The Waterfront Advisory Committee issued unanimous recommendations of consistency with the village's Local Waterfront Revitalization Program on April 6 for two sign-related proposals: revisions to Croton's sign code and a state project that included replacing eight curve-warning signs in the village.
This article is written solely from the meeting's official minutes; croton.news had no reporter present.
The village-code referral concerned Local Law Introductory No. 7 of 2026, which proposed amendments to Chapter 179, Property Maintenance, and Chapter 230, Zoning, governing posted signs. Village Engineer Vincent Salanitro explained that the Board of Trustees wanted to make the code clearer and easier to administer. Salanitro described new definitions and new size requirements for signs in commercial districts.
The committee reviewed the proposal's Coastal Assessment Form and noted no changes. Leo Wiegman moved to accept the form, Stuart Greenbaum seconded, and the motion carried 5-0.
Members also reviewed the Short Environmental Assessment Form and determined that no changes were necessary. Wiegman moved to accept that form, Steve Krisky seconded, and the vote was again 5-0.
After reviewing the 44 LWRP policies, the committee found none applicable to the proposed sign-code changes and recommended consistency. Greenbaum made the motion, Wiegman seconded, and it carried 5-0.
The second referral concerned the New York State Department of Transportation's effort to make curve-warning signage uniform across the state. Salanitro described a project involving relocation or replacement of existing horizontal curve-warning signs and installation of new signs. Eight signs in Croton were to be replaced, and the project was federally funded, according to Salanitro's summary in the minutes.
The committee reviewed the LWRP policies for that referral, identified applicable policies and found nothing inconsistent with the program. Greenbaum moved to recommend consistency, Krisky seconded, and the motion carried 5-0.
Members also approved the minutes of the February 24 WAC meeting. Wiegman moved approval and Krisky seconded. That vote was 3-0, with Chairperson Len Simon and Greenbaum abstaining because they had been absent from the February meeting.
Simon called the April 6 meeting to order at 4 p.m., and it adjourned at 4:23 p.m. The April minutes were subsequently approved at the committee's July 8 meeting.
