SECTION I BOUNDARY DESCRlPfION

BOUNDARY DESCRIPTION

The Village of Croton-on-Hudson is located in Westchester County, New York (see Figure 1, Regional Setting) and borders the eastern side of the Hudson River surrounded on the north and east by the Town of Cortlandt, on the southeast by the Town of New Castle, and on the south by the Town of Ossining. The Village, which is 4.5 square miles in size, extends approximately 71,280 feet along the Hudson River shoreline, including approximately 18,500 feet along the Croton River to the Croton Bay. The western boundary of the Village extends to the middle of the Hudson River and is coincident with the boundary of Westchester County. The inland boundary of the coastal zone is the eastern boundary of the Village. The New York State Department of State (DOS) established this coastal zone boundary, which includes the entire Village, when it submitted a Statewide program for Federal approval. The LWRP considers the entire Village of Croton-on-Hudson to have a direct and significant relationship with both the Croton and Hudson Rivers (see Figure 2, Coastal Zone Boundary). In addition, the topography of the Village is such that inland areas contain primary viewsheds of the Rivers and waterfront and provide an important visual identity of the Village with the River.
