    Hey Gorga:

    I was unable to call in on the zoom public hearing on the adopting of a local law to amend the Town of Lancaster Zoning Code. In fact, after reading the entire proposed code, I had not submitted any comments because unlike the last Comprehensive Plan of 2002, I did not feel the need to.

    I was wondering whether you did listen in and ask your thoughts. I did not see anything written in the media on the public hearing. I spoke to a town official who had input on the document, and he told me that he was disappointed that only one individual spoke from the public at the hearing and that individual was someone who was moving into Lancaster.

    I answered that was not a bad thing if the public reviewed the proposed zoning document and found it complete and satisfactory. The framing panel spent a long time in putting this document together and were (IMHO) far more adept and committed to the best interests of the Town & Village residents that the last panel.

    I particularly liked the new district zoning classifications and hope they end all the rezones and rezones of rezones that took place under the old plan.

    Your thoughts?
