Potsdam village board to consider zoning change for new Taco Bell tonight

Posted

POTSDAM -- The regular village Board of Trustees meeting at 7 p.m. tonight will be preceded at 6:45 for a public hearing on a zoning change for a new Taco Bell.

Developer Steve Pinkerton, an Ogdensburg native, said the restaurant will go on the Scott Ford property on Market Street and the site of a house on Sisson Street.

To do that the zoning will have to be changed from R-2 residential to B-1 business, according to Planning Board Chair Jim Corbett.

Our story announcing the Taco Bell development can be seen here.

The last item on the agenda for the regular village board meeting is adoption of a change to the local law reflecting the zoning change.

Also on the agenda is a resolution declaring free parking downtown from Nov. 12 to Dec. 31, the Christmas shopping season.

And trustees will vote on spending up to $25,000 on the canopy over the library side entrance at the Municipal Building. The library is applying for a grant to pay for that, according to the agenda, and if the grant is approved whatever money is received will go to reimbursement into the reserve fund.
