Residents in Melville had another chance to speak up over a plan to create a downtown area today.
As News 12 has reported, hundreds came out to a meeting last week to learn more about the makeover.
The proposal includes two parts. One is to accept the plan for the creation of the Melville Town Centre Overlay Zone. The second allows for mixed use development of residential and commercial space.
The zone would run along Maxess Road, Melville Park Road, Baylis Road and Corporate Center Drive.
Some say the town plans lack detail, but others see the future payoffs of it.
The meeting was held at Huntington Town Hall.
