Haul road environmental review on hold, for now

Apr 25, 2017 6:45 am

Rosa Acheson is reporting in the Register-Star the A. Colarusso & Son haul road proposal has been removed from the agenda for the Greenport Planning Board meeting on Tue., Apr. 25. Planning board members said Monday due to the large volume of letters and comments received the board needs more time before the matter can move forward. “We’ve received a pile of letters and we have to get the stenographer’s typeout from last week’s meeting — the board has to go over everything before starting the environmental review,” Greenport Planning Board Co-Chairman Robert MacGiffert said. The planning board held a special meeting April 18, providing the public a chance to speak up about the project. Hudson officials and residents who spoke expressed concern about ways an improved haul road would impact tourism, waterfront revitalization, real estate and redevelopment, in addition to environmental concerns. MacGiffert said it is unknown when the proposal will be discussed next. Read the full story in the Register-Star.
