Projects, Studies and Proposals

Active Studies & Proposals:

	Special St. George District Rezoning: The Department of City Planning, working with a broad spectrum of community stakeholders, neighborhood residents and local elected officials has developed a comprehensive planning and rezoning strategy to foster the long-term future growth of St. George, the transit hub and civic center of Staten Island.
	Staten Island West Shore - Land Use & Transportation Study: This study will identify ways to coordinate transportation and land use while supporting existing businesses, preserving open space & natural features, and improving access to waterfront & recreation.

Projects:

New York's New Parkland - Fresh Kills lifescape:
Field Operations, a New York based urban design and landscape architecture firm contracted by City Planning, begins work on a conceptual design and public outreach on the Fresh Kills End Use Master Plan.

Recently Adopted Rezonings*:

Westerleigh Rezoning Adopted: 4/16/08:
The proposed rezoning seeks to preserve the established low-density character of portions of the Westerleigh area and ensure that future residential development will reinforce the existing patterns of one-family detached homes in those areas.

* Most recently approved proposals are described as originally proposed by the Department of City Planning. Any modifications of the proposals by the City Planning Commission or the City Council are summarized under Public Review, where viewers may link to the CPC report and, in some instances, to the final enacted zoning text.
