The Ancram Planning Board reviews and approves subdivision and site plan proposals and administers the Town Zoning and Subdivision Laws in order to maintain and encourage the orderly and efficient development of the Town. The Board ensures that all subdivided land can be used safely for building purposes and that new development is consistent with the purposes of Ancram’s local laws. In considering each subdivision or site plan the Board also protects soil, water, air, natural resources and the Town’s rural and agricultural character. The Board assures all proposals brought before it relate to the Town’s Comprehensive Master Plan and are thus in harmony with the objectives and intended development pattern of the Town as a whole. The Board meets the first Thursday of every month at 7:00 PM at the Town Hall. These meetings are open to the public.
