NEW ZONING COMMISSION INFORMATION 8/10/25
The Greenport Town Board has established a Zoning Commission to develop a Zoning Ordinance for our community. The Commission holds public meetings at Town Hall on the second Tuesday of each month at 6:00 PM. Our goal is to protect Greenport’s neighborhoods from incompatible development. A basic land use plan could, for example, prevent a new institutional facility from being built next to private homes, or stop a large resort hotel development on Mt. Merino. We do not want to constrain current or new design, style, or decoration in any way.
We will prepare a preliminary report, which will be presented in public hearing(s) for community input. Based on that feedback, we will revise the draft and submit a final report to the Town Board. Before any zoning plan is adopted as a Zoning Ordinance, the Board will provide public notice and hold a formal hearing.
Dog License Fees
Attention Dog Owners:
The Town of Greenport is committed to providing essential dog control services to residents of the Town, including dog licensing enforcement of dog-related ordinances and animal shelter operations; and the current dog license fees are insufficient to adequately fund these services.
Effective June 2, 2025 the fees to license a dog will be $15.00 for a spayed or neutered dog and $25.00 for un-spayed and un-neutered dogs.
