White Plains Officials Give Thumbs Up to FASNY Findings Statement

Take two!

The White Plains Common Council approved the findings statement for the French American School of New York's proposal for a campus on the old Ridgeway Country Club.

Councilwoman Milagros Lecuona was the lone dissenting vote.

A vote was initially scheduled to take place on Dec. 10, but the matter was tabled to today after officials said there were last minute issues that needed to be worked out.

The findings statement is the last step in the state environmental process for the project. FASNY wants to build a campus with an 83-acre open space conservancy on the former country club, located off Ridgeway and North Street in White Plains.

FASNY must now gain site plan approval and the Common Council must now make a final decision on granting a special permit for the project.
