Real Estate: Trustees Consider Extending Gravel Surface Moratorium Plus Sales

GravelDrivewayExampleThe Scarsdale Board of Trustees will hold a hearing on extending a moratorium to treat gravel as an impervious surface for another four months to give the Board of Trustees time to review the Planning Board recommendations on the matter. The moratorium would prevent the Building Department from approving applications that use gravel surfaces to meet lot requirements. In other words, if the plans call for gravel surfaces, the gravel should be treated as impervious and be counted in the lot coverage calculation.

This moratorium has been in place since February, 10, 2015 and would be extended for another four months to allow the Board to study proposed changes to the Village Code. The hearing on the extension will be held at the meeting of the Village Board on June 23rd.

 Speaking against the extension, Jeremy Gans of 45 Harvest Drive in Scarsdale said that this law goes beyond its intent which is to limit the bulk of homes in Scarsdale. He said, "it prevents people from adding a pool or other features not visible from the street." He contends that the law "reduces the value of homes that could be improved," and "denies property owners the right to improve their homes."
