Zoning Board of Appeals Meeting Tuesday November 23, 2021 at 7:30 PM (Monroe Town Hall 1465 Orange Turnpike)

Please click here to view the Agenda.

The Town of Monroe Zoning Board of Appeals is pleased to announce the return of in-person Zoning Board of Appeals Meetings at Town Hall, 1465 Orange Turnpike, Monroe, New York.

Given the current times, please note the following procedures that must be adhered to should you choose to attend a meeting:

Following Governor Cuomo’s adoption of the CDC guidelines lifting the mask mandate for vaccinated individuals, masks will no longer be required at town meetings for individuals who are fully vaccinated (*you are considered fully vaccinated 14 days after your 2nd dose of the vaccine).  Individuals who are immunocompromised or are unvaccinated should continue to wear masks and socially distance.


- Please be advised that all employees, board members and visitors will continue to partake in a temperature screening upon arrival to all town buildings until further notice.   
 

- All meeting attendees must enter the upper level main entrance where a contactless temperature check will be conducted. To assist in contact tracing efforts, meeting attendees will be asked to provide their name and contact information. All temperatures under 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit will be recorded as a pass on a log-sheet. When a body temperature above 100.4 is detected, the actual temperature reading will be recorded and traced, and it will be noted as “fail” on the log-sheet. Any individual with an elevated body temperature of 100.4 will be asked to return home immediately and contact their physician.

-
Lastly, please continue to be respectful of others by remaining at home should you feel ill or exhibit any symptoms of COVID-19. 

We are excited to share the newly renovated meeting room with our residents. We appreciate your cooperation in adhering to our safety guidelines and thank you for your ongoing patience and support!
