Cortlandt Seeks Members For Zoning Board of Appeals

From Cortlandt Town Hall

The Town of Cortlandt government will be interviewing interested residents for the Town of Cortlandt Zoning Board of Appeals.

Members are appointed by the Town Board and assist in the administration of the Town’s Zoning ordinance by reviewing decisions of the Building Inspector and approving or denying conditional uses and variances.

The Board functions in a quasi-judicial capacity and holds public hearings for Area and Use Variances, Interpretations and Special Permit applications, makes findings of fact and conclusions of law based upon applicable state and local zoning laws, and issues written decisions setting forth their findings and conclusions.

Members are required to attend work sessions and meetings once a month, and perform site inspections as required. There is a required New York State 4 hour per year training program.

The deadline to apply is July 26.

Any interested residents should send a resume and letter of interest to Supervisor Linda D. Puglisi, Town Hall, 1 Heady St., Cortlandt Manor, NY 10567 or e-mail to claudiaa@townofcortlandt.com.
