BROOKFIELD - Town Board Votes to Change MINOR SUBDIVISION Ordinance

Full house Monday night --with 18-20 attending -- including Planning Board Members Jerry Cheseboro and Gail Abrams. The Town Board unanimously approved (Head absent) a resolution, recommended by Councilman George Cowen and further amended based on public input. Essentially, the requirement for a MINOR (less than 4 parcel) SUBDIVISION will no longer require a professional survey. The MAJOR subdivision requirements will remain in place, requiring a survey; but the PLANNING BOARD will have the ability to waive the survey requirement depending on the circumstances/hardships.
