ABOUT
THE 

PROJECT

​

The Town of Gaines is updating its zoning regulations. The Town’s current regulations were initially adopted in 1983 and have been amended several times since then.

​

A comprehensive review and update will:

  • Ensure consistency with the Town’s recently adopted Comprehensive Plan

  • Remove inconsistencies with NYS laws and other government regulations

  • Improve clarity and ease of administration.

​​

The zoning update will codify the Town’s policies regarding land development in various areas of the Town:

​

  • along State highways where commercial development may be appropriate;

  • in rural and agricultural areas of the Town; and

  • within traditional hamlets and historic districts.
