Calling all residents of Manorhaven! They are voting TONIGHT regarding 30 Sagamore Hill Drive. Go to the meeting!! 6:30pm @ Town Hall - 33 Manorhaven Blvd.
We have told them over and over again that WE DO NOT WANT THIS!! Residents have shown up! You've voiced your concerns. You've demanded that they HALT this senseless overdevelopment of the village. 30 Sagamore Hll Dr is just the tip if the iceberg! More high density projects are already lined up. This is NOT in our best interest. WHO WILL BENEFIT? WHO WILL PROFIT?? NOT US!!
The developer will tell you they are building within the zoning constrictions - NOT TRUE!
Read the minutes from the February BZA meeting. Note the variances requested. Note there's no public comment. That's because the public wasn't informed. This was supposed to pass without opposition.
