Glendell Town Board Rejects Proposal to Allow Electronic Message Centers in Town Center
The Town Board conducted a public hearing and debated Local Law 4-2026, which proposes amending zoning codes to allow electronic message centers (EMCs) in the Town Center District. The proposal sparked significant discussion among board members and community members. Opponents cited concerns about preserving the town's character, light pollution, traffic distraction, and potential for future unregulated proliferation. Proponents argued that EMCs are a modern, cost-effective tool for businesses to communicate, attract customers, promote events, and even display emergency notifications, and that the proposed regulations strike a balance between modern needs and community character. The board ultimately voted against adopting the local law.
