The Town Board has officially agreed to mandate a supplemental DGEIS for the Holy Cross project. This requirement ensures that residents will have a formal opportunity to review the recent density increases before any further action occurs. Thank you for maintaining the pressure necessary to secure this outcome.

We the undersigned petition the Town Board of Rhinebeck, NY to create a supplimental DGEIS document. Because the recent addition of 200+ units of allowable density on the site known as The Holy Cross Campus (now owned by the Matovu foundation) is a substantial change to the original DGEIS document proceeding to an EIS at this point would be a mistake, and unlawful. The supplemental document should allow for public comment on these substantial changes.

The addition of these residential units represents a fundamental departure from the original proposal that cannot be ignored by the Town Board. I am currently organizing the documentation required to challenge the current process and ensure that the public has a formal opportunity to review these adjustments.

The level of engagement this request has received conveys a clear message to the Town Board regarding our community expectations. Your commitment to ensuring this development process remains lawful and transparent is truly appreciated. We are currently preparing to present this collective position to town officials.

The traffic in Rhinebeck is already a nightmare. Adding these units without a proper study is just asking for trouble.

TOTAL LACK OF TRANSPARENCY. This feels like a backroom deal.

200 units is a huge change. How can they just push this through without hearing from the people who actually live here?
