The primary mission of the Community Development Commission is to facilitate the implementation of the 2014 Comprehensive Plan. This often involves working with the municipal boards.
In January of 2016 the Lake Placid Village Board asked the Lake Placid / North Elba Development Commission to examine the various legislations that directly impact Main Street. The goal is to ensure that the laws and regulations in place promote the vision for a vital, pedestrian friendly Main Street established by the Comprehensive Plan. The Commission organized a group of stakeholders to accomplish this task. The first meeting was held at 8 AM on Tuesday, February 9, 2016. You can track the progress of the advisory group below:
