Updates for 2023:
The Caroline Democratic Committee supports the continuing open and democratic process of developing a Caroline Town Zoning Law because such a law is uniquely able to establish future land use in Caroline that is consistent with the Town’s Comprehensive Plan. The Caroline Democratic Committee expresses its gratitude for the outstanding service of the current members of the Zoning Commission and Town Board and recognizes their high level of professionalism, patience, and care in carrying out their work. The Draft Zoning Law which is was prepared by the Zoning Commission is now being considered by the Town Board. It is a long document designed to withstand legal challenges and it is not easy for lay persons or busy people to read it all. However, the Zoning Commission included a shorter summary of the Draft Law in their final report to the Town Board. This summary is available here. All residents and especially voters in Caroline are encouraged to read this shorter document carefully so that they can ask intelligent and informed questions before they vote.
