Zoning law
Posted over the summer about a proposed change to zoning laws on the Upper West Side aimed at curbing the proliferation of banks and big-box retailers.
If you’re interested in learning more or expressing your opinions on the matter, there’s a big Community Board 7 public hearing taking place tonight to discuss the proposal.
