Join Us For An Informal Discussion of The Southold Town Zoning Update

When

June 29, 2025    
3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Where

Poquatuck Hall
1160 Village Lane, Orient, NY, 11957

Event Type

Share your thoughts and bring your questions on the proposed zoning code and learn more about how you can provide feedback to the Town.

Discussion Topics include:

  • Big House Code: Does the big house code work as is? Are changes needed?
  • Historic District: Would you like to see an Orient Historic District Overlay zone?
  • Corridor Business District: The Candyman site is slated to become “Corridor Business.” Future uses exclude retail and restaurants. Should it be Hamlet Mixed Use instead which would include retail and restaurants?
  • Scenic Byways: How should Routes 25 and 48 be protected?
  • Multiple Dwellings: Do you agree that residential zones should allow multiple dwellings (e.g., apartment buildings)?
  • Accessory Dwellings: Do you agree that it should be easier to develop an accessory dwelling unit?

Sea-Level Rise/Coastal Resilience as well as Aquifer Protection and Water Quality were not addressed in this zoning update.  What are your thoughts on this?
