The Oswego Village Board is deciding the best use for the vacant lot within Gerry Centennial Plaza. Although village staff recommends declining a request to put a day care there, trustees are considering it.
According to an article in the Beacon News, the 1.2-acre lot on the east side of Douglas Road south of Route 34 would require a special use permit. It is located inside a commercial center.
The center owner, Ben Scharpf, is asking the village to allow him to build a 10,600 square foot building and playground.
The village's Committee of the Whole is scheduled to discuss the proposal at its meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
