Residents Remain Unhappy with Cortlandt MOD Projects--EXAMINER NEWS

Residents who live in the neighborhood near New York Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital on Route 202 in Cortlandt had their chance last week to speak out on different alternatives for two projects in the proposed Medical Oriented District (MOD).

A sparse crowd turned out at Linda Puglisi Town Hall Nov. 29 at a special Town Board meeting with representatives for Evergreen Manor and Gyrodyne in attendance.

Evergreen Manor, headed by local developer Val Santucci, took the brunt of the criticism from residents who maintained it was too dense and did not comply with the spirit of the MOD, a new zoning district that the Town Board is considering establishing.

One concept unveiled for three parcels totaling 28 acres for Evergreen Manor was 114 assisted living units, 90 townhouses (75 two-bedroom, 15 three-bedroom), 100 rental apartments (70 two-bedroom, 30 one-bedroom) and 7,000 square feet of retail. Birchwood Lane resident Miriam Weinberger contended town officials were using the assisted living portion of Evergreen’s project “as an excuse” to allow the MOD.
