About.

The Town of Ossining is developing a comprehensive plan as a framework for a more sustainable Ossining. The Plan will provide a blueprint for future growth and preservation of the Town.

Over the next several months, the Town will be developing a new Comprehensive Plan, with input from local residents, workers, and business owners through public workshops to identify goals and strategies for a sustainable future.

What is a Comprehensive Plan?

Sustainable Ossining is a plan for the future. The Town of Ossining’s Comprehensive Plan is a sustainable framework establishing policies for the area’s long-range planning and development. This Comprehensive Plan will create a blueprint for a more environmental, equitable, and economically sound Town of Ossining.

Over the next several months, the Town will be collecting input from local residents, workers, and business owners through public workshops to identify goals and strategies for a sustainable future. The Plan will incorporate this input into the final guide for the area’s principles, initiatives, and policies for planning.

Steering Committee

A Steering Committee was assembled by the Town of Ossining to advise on the development of its Comprehensive Plan and provide feedback on materials as they are prepared. Working alongside and representing key stakeholders, this diverse group of community members was tasked with overseeing the Plan and guiding its framework, and serves an important role in encouraging public engagement throughout the planning process.

Steering Committee Members: Caroline Curvan, Dana Levenberg, David Schofield, Donna Sharrett, Gareth Hougham, Gayle Marchica, Jackie Shaw, Jason Mencher, Marisa Caruso, Matthew Weiss, Robert Lowenthal

In collaboration with WXY Studio, PACE University Land Use Law Center, and George M. Janes & Associates, the Town of Ossining has adopted a new Comprehensive Plan. A comprehensive plan is a roadmap that gathers information and input to showcase a community’s history, where it stands today, and what it intends to move towards in the future. Themes, or overarching values, inform the development of planning goals, objectives, and strategies that will guide the community for years to come.
