I am not in favor of either proposal.
We already have 17 empty stores and offices in the Village.
Please just repair the Freightway garage.
We don't need more stores and housing.
Less if More.
Thank you.

I oppose this and believe it will not bring enough benefits to the community vs. the tax burden rental units will incur on homeowners paying for the schooling of renters.

Please don’t do anything unless it can reduce our property tax. Thank you.

I am against this project. The proposed project is detrimental to Scarsdale residents and schools because of the additional tax burden it will create, the strain it will cause on our schools and ultimately the negative effect it will have on our quality of life in Scarsdale. I need to be able to vote on this issue because it affects my life.

The mayor and the trustees need to perform a comprehensive analysis of the impact on Village resources resulting from a large residential/retail development. The analysis must focus on increases in the number of students who will enroll in the school system, in traffic, and in essential services from police and fire, to name a few. Merely focusing on short term increases in property taxes is insufficient and misleading, because it doesn’t consider all the costs to the Village.
Additionally, since the Village currently has numerous retail vacancies, the public have an adequate explanation why we need more retail.
Until these and potentially other issues are fully vetted and disclosed to the public, the Village should not consider any specific redevelopment plans.

Edgewood family not in support of more traffic and congestion in the village. Fix the parking lot and add more spaces while at it. The least the trustees and mayor can do is allow the resident’s voices to be heard. They aren’t listening if they have gotten this far.

I think that this plan will hurt the local businesses on Garth Road and prove to be a very costly and unnecessary project.

Fully agree with the petition that the impact to our schools must be properly assessed.

The lack of planning for the future of Scarsdale is a terrible problem left to fester by the Village government.

Please do not build this.
We are very against it.
The effects are only negative for the entire community.
Thank you

There’s absolutely no harm in slowing things down. Why rush this? Involve the community, the residents and the merchants. Back to square one.
