ALBION — A property on East Avenue is the latest focus of the village’s Zoning Board of Appeals, which has initiated the process for a potential area variance.
During a brief meeting on Monday, Aug. 11, the board took the first formal steps toward reviewing an application for 327 East Avenue (Tax Map #73.11-1-50.1).
While the specifics of the requested variance were not detailed in the meeting minutes, the board took two unanimous actions to advance the process.
First, the board voted to have Town of Albion CEO Dan Strong send the Area Variance Application to the Orleans County Planning Board for review. This referral is a standard step in local government, ensuring that proposed projects align with broader county planning goals.
The board also scheduled a public hearing for Tuesday, Sept. 9, 2025, at 4:00pm. This hearing will allow residents to ask questions and voice support or concerns regarding the property at 327 East Avenue.
Board members Jeanette Riley, Tony Wynn, and Trellis Pore were present, alongside Craig Tuohey. Bruce Dugan was absent. Village CEO Chris Kinter and Town of Albion CEO Dan Strong were also in attendance.
In other business, the board formally approved the minutes from their previous meeting held on Nov. 14, 2024.
The meeting adjourned at 4:05 p.m.
