Notice of Acceptance of Draft Generic EIS
Westchester County - The Village of Mount Kisco Board of Trustees, as lead agency, has accepted a Draft
Generic Environmental Impact Statement on the proposed Village of Mount Kisco Comprehensive Plan and
Zoning Amendments. Pubic comment period ends October 26, 2018. The Draft GEIS is available from the
Village Manager's Office, Village Hall, 2nd Floor, 104 Main Street, Mount Kisco, NY 10594 and on line at:
www.envisionmk.org.
The Village of Mount Kisco is proposing the adoption and implementation of a Comprehensive Plan Update and
associated amendments to the Village's zoning code and map (Proposed Action). The Village last updated its
Comprehensive Plan in 2000. Since then, much has changed in terms of local and regional demographic and
economic conditions, as well as global planning objectives. The current plan update will reflect these new trends
and conditions. The plan update will also incorporate a vision for downtown, principles of sustainability, and likely
facilitate increased development over the next 10 years. The Comprehensive Plan has twelve chapters including
an Introduction; Vision; Land Use and Zoning; Population and Housing; Downtown; Economy; Environmental
Resources and Parks; Neighborhood Character, Cultural, and Historic Resources; Transportation; Infrastructure;
Future Land Use Plan; and Implementation. Chapters of the plan conclude with a set of recommendations that
have been developed through public outreach and coordination with a local committee. The Proposed Action
also includes amendments to the Village's zoning code and map which implement certain comprehensive plan
recommendations. The Proposed Action represents where the Village of Mount Kisco is today and establishes
the direction for the Village over the next 10years. By acting as a guide for future municipal decisions, the
Comprehensive Plan will strengthen the Village's influence over state agency decisions as well as increase its
ability to attract funding for projects that support the plan.
The project is located in the Village of Mount Kisco, New York.
