The board’s finding supports the ordinances but does not itself enact them. The board also continued the public hearing on proposed improvements at the Knickerbocker Country Club, including relocated tennis courts, new padel and pickleball courts, and drainage work. The applicant’s engineer said the plan would remove about 50% of the drainage area contributing to Palmer Avenue backyards, while removing 96 trees and adding mitigation plantings.
