The Irvington Planning Commission is weighing changes to residential use in the town’s business zoning district as inquiries about apartments and tiny homes rise. Officials recently discussed transient lodging, noting leases under 30 days require occupancy taxes, while long-term rentals are beyond the town’s authority. Concerns were raised about “tourist home” designations being used to skirt high-density rules. Commissioners suggested limiting transient terms and allowing apartments above existing businesses.
