County Planning Weighs in on Durst Project
February 14, 2008
Robert Wills of the Dutchess County Department of Planning and Development has written a scathing critique of the Durst Development. It is worth a read as it specifically addresses many of the claims of the developer and comes to starkly different conclusions.
“In this project’s current form, using the adjective “green” is nothing more than putting the proverbial ’spats on a pig’. We are hopeful that the project sponsor, with its acknowledged urban record of implementing exemplary green strategies in their projects, will, in good conscience, redesign Carvel Property Development as a true model of sustainable development, a character-filled community within which residents will be inspired to live, and Pine Plains will be proud to welcome.“
