Public outreach and community involvement prior to review of applications pursuant to the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) were important components in the development of the rezoning proposal. The Department of City Planning has conducted numerous outreach meetings with Community Board 7, Community Board 12, elected officials, and affected property and business owners. Public outreach will continue through the environmental review and ULURP process.
On February 4, 2011, the New York City Department of City Planning, on behalf of the City Planning Commission as lead agency, issued a Notice of Completion of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for Webster Avenue Rezoning.
The Webster Avenue/Bedford Park/Norwood rezoning proposal began the formal review on September 27, 2010 with the Department of City Planning’s Certification of the Uniform Land Use Review (ULURP) application (C 110085 ZMX and text amendment N 110086 ZRX). The rezoning proposal was approved by the City Planning Commission on February 16th 2011.
