Thursday Is Deadline For Southeast's Route 22 Development Survey

SOUTHEAST, NY — Town officials are starting on a process of updating Southeast's master plan for the Route 22 corridor, and the public has a chance to weigh in now.

The issue is development along Route 22 from the end of I-684 to the Patterson town line.

Planning Board members have asked the public to participate in a survey. It includes a number of questions, such as what kinds of uses should be encouraged or discouraged. Elder and day care, restaurants and recreation, multi-family and mixed-use are just a few of the categories. Survey-takers are also asked about traffic and improvements they'd like to see.

The Planning Board survey seeking residents', businesses' and other interested parties' input will close on Thursday.

There will be other opportunities to have your say: town officials promised at least two public hearings will be held during the process.
