Over 60 people filled the Lansing Town Hall Wednesday for a public hearing on the latest draft of the Town's comprehensive plan revision. More than three years in the making a 99 page (not counting appendixes) draft was available on the
Town Web site, with hard copies in Town and Village of Lansing offices and the Lansing Community Library. Seven people voiced opinions on the document Wednesday, siting concerns about representation of existing elderly residents, zoning and land use, town-citizen communication, growth and town-wide representation.
"Primarily it's a guideline," explained Lansing Planning Consultant Michael Long. "It gives you the basis for making future decisions for other processes. the things that most likely follow a comprehensive plan is an update to your land use ordinance for your zoning rules and regulations."
