The Huntington Town Board is holding a public hearing Tuesday for a rezoning application for a proposed senior housing development at the former Oak Tree Dairy site in East Northport.
The public hearing will begin at 7 p.m. at Town Hall, 100 Main Street in Huntington.
The proposed development, known as The Seasons at Elwood, was originally slated to be a 444-unit age-restricted community. The developer, Engel Burman, has since scaled back the community to 360 units.

In order for the development to move forward, the “town would have to make a zone change from 1-acre residence to retirement community district,” Newsday reported. “The latter allows for 14.5 homes per acre, and Engel Burman is asking for about 9.75 per acre.”
