The document provides a narrative summary and Phase I Environmental Site Assessment for the West Haverstraw Commons project. The project involves a zone change, subdivision, and site plan to redevelop four parcels into two, with Lot 1 designated for multi-family townhouses and Lot 2 for commercial use. The plan aims to address the need for additional quality housing in the Village of West Haverstraw, particularly family-suitable housing, and allow for the eventual expansion of an existing business. It incorporates a market analysis supporting the proposed unit mix and details environmental considerations for the site.

The public hearing was held to solicit public input on the content of the scoping document prepared by Grassy Point Bend LLC and 2020 Industrial LLC, concerning the proposed development of a new wholesale storage and warehousing facility. Key discussion topics included the potential environmental impact, traffic concerns, noise levels, property values, and the suitability of the location given its proximity to residential areas and its history as a construction and demolition landfill.
