Oyster Bay zoning code could change
The Oyster Bay town board will hold a hearing Tuesday, May 17, on the creation of a new zoning classification to allow construction of multifamily residential communities.
If the new zoning is approved, its first use could be for a proposed 390-unit senior housing complex at the site of an asphalt plant in Hicksville. A hearing on that project will be held at the same meeting.
Supervisor John Venditto said, “The purpose of this new classification, PUD/R-30, is to facilitate flexibility in the planning, design and implementation of multifamily residential communities.”
The new zone would allow for a maximum of 30 units to the acre of any mix of residential multifamily housing types, including units restricted to occupancy by senior citizens and first-time homebuyers.
The new classification could only be applied to properties of at least 15 acres that are currently zoned light industrial.
The hearing will be at 7 p.m. at Town Hall North, 54 Audrey Ave., Oyster Bay. The hearing on the Hicksville project will be on changing the current zoning on West John Street from light industrial to a 55-and-over planned unit development use.
