State Land Corp Rezone

The following rezone was approved by the Town Board on December 17, 2013.

The subject property is located along NYS Route 202/35 in the Town of Yorktown, Westchester County, New York (Figure 1, Site Location Map). The site is comprised of one tax parcel designated as Section 26.17, Block 1, Lot 1; it is approximately 100 acres in size. The Project Sponsor, State Land Corp., is seeking a rezone from R1-160 Single Family Residential to C-3 Business zone. The rezone will facilitate the development of Retail and Office space. The site is currently vacant, forested land, which is bound by a commercially zoned district to the south; the property is immediately bordered by the Sylvan Glen Preserve to the north and west (industrial further west), residential properties to the east and south, and commercial properties south along NYS Route 202/35. The final project will provide approximately 230,000 square feet of commercial space on approximately 27.5 acres, and the remaining approximate 72.5 acres will be deeded to the Town of Yorktown as open space. The approximate 72.5 acre parcel area abuts the Sylvan Glen Park Preserve to the northwest and north.
