Oblong Land Conservancy questions legality of Rasco Stipulation Agreement: “application should be denied….”

May 17, 2010

Sibyll Gilbert read a letter from the Oblong Land Conservancy to the Plannng Board at the May 17, 2010 meeting:

“The Conservancy further requests that the Planning Board refrain from relying on the December 1, 2009 stipulation in making any decision on this application as the stipulation was unlawfully entered into by the Dover Town Board with the applicant. The application should be denied as the proposed use is a solid waste management facility under Section 145-50 of the Dover Code and is not a continuation of a lawful preexisting, nonconforming use. THE TOWN BOARD CANNOT USURP THE AUTHORITY OF THE PLANNING BOARD, ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS OR THE BUILDING INSPECTOR UNDER THE GUISE OF A COMPROMISE OF A CLAIM PURSUANT TO THE NEW YORK STATE TOWN LAW”
