LIBERTY, NY – The Town of Liberty is inviting members of the public to attend a public hearing to learn about proposed changes to the Town of Liberty Zoning Law. The meeting is being held on Thursday, July 22, beginning at 7 p.m. in the CVI Building in Ferndale.

The proposed Zoning changes are the outcome of a 2-year review process that began in early 2008, after the Town of Liberty adopted its joint comprehensive plan with the Village of Liberty. The Zoning Committee was charged to review and propose changes to the existing Zoning provisions to bring them into line with existing and perceived future needs; and to incorporate comments and priorities that were agreed upon by residents in community planning sessions during the comprehensive plan process. A first, informal public information session on the proposed changes was held in May 2010.

This public hearing now is part of the formal adoption process of the future Zoning Law: the related documents are available on the Town of Liberty website (www.townofliberty.org) or can be viewed in person at the Town of Liberty Clerk’s office during regular business hours.
