The Town proposes to amend  the zoning code to change the "block" of Oregon Road between Depot and Cox from Light Industrial to an Industrial Zone.

 Although our community has already told our elected officials this is the WRONG place for a Battery Energy Storage System, the proposed code would allow this and more: we could see a tanning salon, more storage units or a car wash, to name a few options permitted by the proposed zoning code.

The Town and County have already spent millions of our tax dollars to preserve large swaths of land on Oregon Road.  It makes no sense to then allow this zoning change. Instead, any land in this sector that is currently open space should be re-zoned AGRICULTURAL. 

LET'S SAVE WHAT'S LEFT.

Please sign and show our Town Board that taxpayers prefer farmland over car washes on Oregon Road.

UPDATE: THE TOWN IS HAS ABANDONED THE IDEA OF RE-NAMING THE ZONE BUT THAT IS NOT MATERIAL. THE THREAT OF OVER-DEVELOPMENT REMAINS THE SAME, THUS THE IMPORTANCE OF RE-ZONING.
