4:00 - 5:30 PM -Floodplain Regulation for Local Review Boards
The essence of good planning is to develop areas most suitable to the environment and existing infrastructure, avoiding sensitive areas such as steep slopes, wetlands, and floodplains. With increased storm intensity and years of building in flood prone areas, natural floodplains have been disrupted, resulting in severe damage to flood prone areas. This course is an overview of regulating development around flood plains, with a discussion of the National Flood Insurance Program, and trends in resiliency planning.
Presenter: NYS Department of State

5:45 - 7:15 PM -Duties of Planning Board & Zoning Board Secretaries
The responsibilities of secretaries of local planning boards and zoning boards of appeals range from accepting applications, to maintaining and archiving records—and everything in between, including issuing notices and transmitting communications on behalf of their boards. The more effective the board secretary at these tasks, the more efficient local development review and approval will be. In addition, the more complete the record, the better prepared the local government will be to address challenges to decisions. This course explores the essential duties of secretaries to planning boards and zoning boards of appeals, as well as best practices.
Presenter: NYS Department of State
7:15 - 8:15 PM -Short Term Rentals
Short-term rentals have been around for years, but the availability of online booking sites and the growth of local management companies has had dramatic effects on neighborhoods big and small across the state (and around the world). A number of cities, towns, and villages in New York have come up with a variety of means to permit or restrict short-term rentals consistent with the character of the respective communities. This session looks at the problems short-term rentals posed for several of those municipalities and summarizes the regulations with which they responded to the challenge.
