Town of Hempstead to Hold Hearing on Crocus Lane Estates

Previously scheduled for Sept. 4, the Town of Hempstead public hearing on the Crocus Lane Estates was adjourned until Wednesday, Oct. 3.

The zoning that is being sought from the town board would change the
current single-family zoning (LRPD) to condominium/multi-family zoning
(CA) for the Crocus Lane site, the town said.

The proposed 46-unit housing development for residents 55 and over would
be located on an empty parcel of land located alongside the Long Island
Motor Parkway in Levittown, which closed in 1938.

The complex would also include 117 street parking spaces, but the
developers need a variance as the zoning code requires 133 spaces, attorney William Cohn
said at the meeting.

The Board of Appeals will hear anyone who would like to speak
about this matter on Oct. 3, 10:30 a.m. at Town Meeting Pavilion, 1 Washington St.,
Hempstead.
