New Castle Supervisor, Planning Director Should Resign Over Rezoning Fiasco

We are part of The Trust Project

The massive Ivy Pool-Sabrina Charney Hull 997-unit redevelopment plan in Chappaqua is now opposed by almost 900 signatories on the Chazin petition. The Chappaqua Board of Education opposes this ill-conceived plan that would dramatically change the character of the town, endanger public safety due to the inability of the fire department to service five-story buildings and cause massive chaos during the multiyear construction process. No cost analysis was performed and an increase in taxes is unlimited.

The Pool-Hull plan is misnamed. It should be called “The Robert Moses Cross Bronx Expressway Part II Construction Project.” Both Ms. Pool and Ms. Hull should resign immediately since they have lost all credibility and their leadership ability is seriously compromised.

Chappaqua residents are finally waking up and their vision of the hamlet’s future is vastly different from that of Pool and Hull and their small group of supporters.
