What this form is
Use this packet to request Planning Board review of a proposed exchange or transfer of land between adjoining properties. It includes the application, materials checklist, optional agent authorization, request to waive a public hearing, and related procedures. The town asks for complete applications two weeks before a regularly scheduled monthly meeting; submit the required PDF materials and nine paper sets to the Planning Board Secretary.
Who needs it
Applicants seeking an Esopus lot line adjustment should submit the application; an owner must also authorize an agent who represents them during the Planning Board review.
Why it needs a notary
The agent authorization includes an acknowledgment block, where each property owner signing the authorization appears before a notary; the application and hearing-waiver signatures have no notary block.
