Chappaqua Crossing Discussion Slated For Wednesday Night | Chappaqua Real Estate

-
The New Castle Town Board will meet Wednesday, Oct. 16 at 7:45 p.m. to discuss the Chappaqua Crossing retail plan, Town Administrator Penny Paderewski confirmed.
The board will be discussing – and possibly voting on – the following:
  • The findings statement of the final draft supplemental environmental statement
  • A new retail zone in the town code, including “mapping” of where the retail will be in the proposal’s preliminary development concept plan
  • Master plan changes
Developer Summit/Greenfield’s plan for a 36,000- to 66,000-square-foot grocery store at the old Reader's Digest headquarters location has many residents up in arms over its potential impact on the town. Dozens of those residents came out to ask the board to hold off on any vote until after the Nov. 5 general election in an Oct. 8 town board work session.

However, the board insisted its voting timetable is solely dependent on its readiness to vote, and would not be impacted by looming political implications. Whether or not that date will be Oct. 16 or after Nov. 5 was unknown.

Town Attorney Clinton Smith said while it was possible the board could vote on all three items this week, it was unlikely. In fact, Summit/Greenfield is asking for the vote of the rezoning to be put on hold until it is ready to submit its preliminary development concept plan.

Top 20 real estate websites in June | Mount Kisco Real Estate

Last year, Realtor.com and Yahoo Real Estate battled it out for the top position in the monthly real estate website rankings maintained by Web metrics firm Experian Hitwise . So far this year, Zillow has been king of the hill, having bumped Yahoo Real Estate from the top spot in March. Jockeying for the spots below first place has also been fierce, with Trulia jumping two positions into second place on the Hitwise list in June. Trulia leapfrogged over third-place Realtor.com, bumping Yahoo Real Estate into third place in the process. AOL Real Estate, meanwhile, moved up two positions from May to June, but there were no new websites in the top 10. The Hitwise rankings don't tally mobile app users, an increasingly popular option among consumers conducting listing searches.
