Overview: The Hainesport Land Use Board meeting focused heavily on a proposal for a new residential development, which requires a D1 variance to allow construction of single-family homes in a Professional Office (PO) zoned district.

Despite the applicant’s efforts to justify the change in zoning use, long-standing residents such as George Colner voiced strong opposition, citing potential risks for families with children.
