The following is from the Village of Ossining.

We are proud to announce that the has been selected to receive a Planning Achievement Award from the Westchester Municipal Planning Federation for it’s Architectural Design Guidelines.   The Award will be presented to the Village at the Federation’s annual awards dinner scheduled to be held on Thursday, June 7. 

The Village of Ossining Architectural Design Guidelines is a comprehensive document containing architectural design recommendations and best practices for commercial and residential structures within the Village. The Guidelines are the product of collaboration between Stephen Tilly Architects, Inc of Dobbs Ferry and the Village Planning Board, Zoning Board of Appeals, and Historic Preservation Commission, along with Village Planning Department staff. The Guidelines focus on the Village's Sparta and Downtown historic districts, the residential neighborhoods surrounding these two districts, and the commercial corridors located on Routes 9 and Route 133.

If your property is not located within these areas, you will still find the recommendations to be useful in planning your project.
