Comprehensive Plan
7.26.17 Draft Updated Zoning Ordinance
Comprehensive Plan (PDF) (Current Adopted Plan)
The following document is a draft version of the revisions to the Comprehensive Plan that was adopted by the Town and Village of Skaneateles in 2015. The Town board would like to thank the volunteers of the special board that devoted their time, effort, and energy to creating the original plan. We would also like to thank the community members and organizations that contributed their time and offered valuable feedback. A comprehensive plan is a very difficult document to create and we appreciate all those who were part of the process. This is a draft. Most of the changes recommended are either to clarify points that were unclear in the plan and/or to resolve the concerns of the litigants. Despite all of the redlining, The basic purpose and concept remain relatively unchanged from the adopted 2015 plan. The Town board welcomes your thoughts and comments.
