Monday, August 18, 2008Public Hearing Set on Village Historic Commission COOPERSTOWN
The village trustees this evening scheduled a public hearing on a law to create a local Historic Preservation Commission. The hearing will be at the next village board meeting the third Monday in September. One point of debate was whether a non-resident of the village could serve on the panel if no resident could be found with sufficient historic-preservation credentials. Mayor Carol B. Waller appeared to carry the day, insisting on residency. Another point was whether the village trustees would act as an appeals body if someone disagreed with a commission recommendation. The trustees voted that any appeals go directly to an Article 78 court proceeding. Planning Board member Cindy Falk, who has headed the committee studying whether to create a commission, presented the proposal. Subscribe to Posts [Atom] |
