MEMORANDUM
To:

Village of North Tarrytown Planning Board

Date:

September 15, 1993

Subject:

Phelps Professional Building, Amended
Site Plan Application

As requested, we have reviewed the submission of Vincent Del Bagno,
Director of Engineering for Phelps Memorial Hospital Center, for
the proposed Phelps Professional Building. The Phelps Memorial
Hospital Center property is located at 701 North Broadway within
the H Hospital District.
It appears that, in order to add 56
additional parking spaces, the Applicant proposes to amend the site
plan, which was approved by resolution at the April 14, 1992
meeting of the Village of North Tarrytown Planning Board and which
approval was extended through June 1994. The original approval was
for the development of a 62,000 square foot medical office building
and nearly 300 additional parking spaces.
The Applicant has submitted a cover letter and the following four
sheets of drawings:
1.

"S-l, Sheet 2, Site Plan, Phelps Professional Building, Town
of North Tarrytown, Westchester, New York," dated 4/27/93 and
last revised 5/18/93, scale 1" = 3 0 ' , prepared by Charles H.
Sells, Inc., Consulting Engineers;

2.

"S-2, Sheet 3, Site Plan, Phelps Professional Building, Town
of North Tarrytown, Westchester, New York," dated 4/26/93 and
last revised 8/17/93, scale 1" = 3 0 ' , prepared by Charles H.
Sells, Inc., Consulting Engineers;

3.

"Revised Grading Plan, West Parking Expansion, Mediplex
Medical Building Corp.," dated 8/23/93, scale 1" = 30';
"e.) North-East Parking Lot," dated 8/2 3/93, scale 1" = 3 0'.

REVIEW COMMENTS
1.

Submissions. It is not clear from the drawings submitted by
the Applicant what is being proposed in this application for
amended site plan approval. These drawings are inconsistent

both with each other and with the approved site plan.
Consequently, it is not clear what is being proposed in this
application. Also, the MRI building and its related parking
area are not shown on any of these drawings. It is not clear
whether the MRI facility is to remain or if that area will be
redeveloped to its former state as part of this proposed
application.
2.

Status of Construction.
The proposed professional office
building is currently under construction. We assume that the
construction is in accordance with the approved site plan. If
the professional office building and related facilities,
landscaping and parking are not being constructed as per the
approved site plan, in both size and location, amended site
plan approval will be required. The Applicant should provide
information confirming the size of the building under
construction. As well, any changes to landscaping and parking
from the approved site plan should be clearly noted. If the
parking areas are proposed for change, the total number of
parking spaces should be provided and explained.
We suggest the Planning Board require the Applicant to submit
three plans. The first plan should illustrate the existing
condition of the site, including the MRI building, but not
including the office building now under construction. Second,
a copy of the previously approved site plan for the office and
MRI building and associated parking and landscaping should be
submitted. Third, a site plan which clearly delineates what
is proposed for the entire site should be submitted.
The
Planning Board will need to see how the site plan has been
developed and what the Applicant is requesting for approval.
Regarding the "new parking" shown on the "Revised Grading
Plan, West Parking Expansion," the Applicant should provide
information as to the number of trees that would need to be
removed from that area for construction of the proposed
parking lot. Any tree removal should be in accordance with
Chapter 52A of the Village Code: Tree Conservation.
All parking should be laid out to provide adequate
circulation.
Also, handicapped parking should be labeled as
such on the plan.

3.

Environmental Review. Due to the property's location within
the Hudson River Shoreline Critical Environmental Area, this
action will be a Type I Action under the State Environmental
Quality Review Act (SEQRA). The Applicant will need to submit
a full Environmental Assessment Form (EAF).

was not present, seconded by Mr. Donovan.
Motion carried
unanimously.
IN THE MATTER OF CHARLES
TARRYTOWN, NEW YORK.

PATEMAN,

NORTH

BROADWAY,

NORTH

Chairman Hritz stated that the Village Board of Trustees deferred
the vote concerning the moratorium until their September 7, 1993
meeting. Also, the Board of Trustees declared itself to be the
lead agency for the moratorium. Chairman Hritz advised the
applicant that he can continue with his application although the
proposed moratorium may restrict certain actions of the Planning
Board if and when it is formally adopted. The applicant, Charles
Pateman, stated that he wished to proceed forward with his
application.
Mr. Hritz also stated that new correspondence was submitted by
Adler Consulting firm dated July 22, 1993, in response to
comments that were prepared by Michael A. Galante of Frederick P.
Clark Associates. (Copy in Official Minutes)
Mr. Pateman stated that the traffic study of Beekman Avenue,
Route 9 and Route 448 will be submitted within two weeks. Mr.
Pateman stated that at this time he would like to respond to the
Board concerning the environmental impacts.
Mr. Hritz stated that he would not be voting or commenting at
this time.

�Mr. Salman stated that in response to tonight's presentation by
Mr. Pateman that there would be vacuum's operating at the
proposed car wash at the June meeting there was discussion about
vacuuming and we were told there would not be any vacuums.
Mr. Pateman stated that there are vacuums on site for employees,
inside the building, there are none on the outside.
At this point during the meeting discussion took place regarding
the procedure to be followed concerning the Environmental
Assessment form.
The members of the Board and the applicant
agreed to review the form together and determine what portions,
if any, of the Assessment form need to be amended and what areas
of concern the applicant should address in more detail.
A
discussion of the EAF ensued.
The first question concerns impact on land which consists of
slopes, land, parking, etc. Mr. McCarthy asked if there were any
unique forms on the site. Mr. Pateman stated that other than the
retaining wall, there are no changes to the site.
The second question concerns impact on water. Mr. Windas asked
how sewage collection and spillage run-off would be handled. Mr.
Pateman stated that it would go through sanitary sewers. Mr.
Gulino stated that roof drainage is more than adequate. Also 80%
of the car wash water is recycled and 20% is used.
The third question concerns impact on air quality. Mr. Caetano
asked if the car had to be running while being washed.
Mr.
Pateman stated that the car can be turned off while going through
the car wash. Mr. Pateman stated he would have his engineers
submit a report concerning the matter if the Board decided to
request it.
Question 11 concerns the impact on aesthetic resources.
Mr.
Salman stated the proximity of a historic site in regards to the
project in question, is to determine the impact on Philipsburg
Manor. It was decided that since the car wash was not abutting
the Philipsburg Manor Restoration that there would be no impact.
Mr. Pateman submitted pictures to the Board as part of the
record, concerning the commercial and residential area. (Copy in
Official Minutes)
Mr. Salman asked if the Planning Board contacted the Department
of Transportation concerning the bus schedule.
Mr. Margotta
stated that no buses stop in that area except by the BP station.
Discussion ensued concerning the Master Plan Census Tract 116 and
whether or not another traffic study should have been done before
now.
Mr. Windas stated that the zoning in the area is for automotive
use.

I

�Mr. Pateman stated for the record that the Village Water
Department garage was sold to Lenny Rutiglan to use for auto
repair.
The impact of noise levels was discussed and Mr. Salman stated
that there was a standard to quantify noise. Mr. Pateman stated
that it would not exceed the noise level. Ms. Gandolfo stated
that the ordinance states for unreasonable noise levels. The
decibel count is in the Village ordinance.
Mr. Pateman stated that he has looked at other ordinances and his
engineer is confident that the noise is below noise levels.
Concerning public health it was mentioned that water dripping on
the street will cause freezing. With the water and oil dripping,
this would be a potential impact on public safety. This should
be put into consideration.
Mr. Windas stated that between the new tourist traffic from the
Rockefeller Archives and the car wash, traffic there may be a
tremendous increase in traffic at and around the Route 448
intersections. This concern should be studied in further detail
in the traffic studies.
Mr. Salman made a motion to to defer the vote on whether to make
a negative or positive declaration until the EAF was amended and
reviewed further.
The motion was seconded by James Donovan.
During the discussion on the motion the applicant agreed to waive
any statutory time requirements the Board may have in voting a
positive or negative declaration and wait until the EAF was
amended and re-submitted to the Board. The Board directed Clark,
Assoc, to amend the EAF to reflect the discussion during the
Planning Board meeting and re-submit the form at the next
meeting. The motion to defer the vote was carried unanimously.
Chairman Hritz abstained.
Discussion ensued concerning the Master Plan of Census Tract 116
which was completed by the firm of Raymond, Parish, Pine &amp; Weiner
in the early 1980's and the Zoning Study which was completed by
Clark, Assoc, in 1988.
The Board queried whether these two
studies suggested appropriate new uses for the area of the
application.
The Board directed Ms. Gandolfo to review the
studies and report back to the members.
Mr. Salman stated that in regard to the request by Mr. Pateman
for Mr. Hritz not to vote on this issue as a member and President
of the Sleepy Hollow Taxpayers Association, that a member of the
Board should not be asked to abstain from a vote unless he or she
had a personal or financial interest in the application.

�Chairman Hritz stated that prior to his being appointed
Board he had written a letter as President of the Sleepy
Taxpayers' Association stating that that they were opposed
car wash.
He did not want there to be any appearance

Ms. Gandolfo stated that the ethics code refers to financial
conflicts of interest and the provisions of the ethics code do
not necessarily require the Chairman to disqualify himself from
voting.
However, because the Chairman had publicly taken a
position in this matter it might be better for him to abstain
from the vote.
A motion was made and carried to continue the public hearing on
this application to the next meeting.
Mr. Donovan made a motion to have the Planning Board meeting on
September 23, 1993, seconded by Mr. McCarthy.
Being no further business Mr. Caetano made a motion to adjourn
the meeting, seconded by Mr. Donovan.
Motion carried
unanimously.

IN THE MATTER OF CHARLES M. PATEMAN, FRANK RACANELLI &amp; THOMAS
J. LUPETIN, NORTH BROADWAY AND GORDON AVENUE, NORTH TARRYTOWN,
NEW YORK.
Continuation of Public Hearing re Car Wash.
Mr. Hritz stated this meeting was a continuation of a Public
Hearing held at the last meeting.
Mr. Hritz stated that the Board of Trustees have called for
a Public Hearing for the adoption of interim zoning law (which
would be the start of the moratorium)to the area of Route 9
known as gasoline alley.
The hearing will be held on August
17th.
Mr. Blancato, Attorney for the applicants stated they
have been before the Board several times in the last several
months and would like to present experts on car washes and
traffic and Timothy Cronin, Engineer who will discuss the Site
Plan.
Mr. Timothy Cronin, Engineer stated he was qualified to
speak on sewers, disposal of water on sites and was licensed
to practice in New York since 1986. He reported on the size
of the proposed car wash, the type of structure and the entrance
and exit to the car wash, He stated he has conferred with
Clark Associates regarding their memos dated 4/15 and 3/23
regarding curb cuts.
Mr. Frank ' Hrotko, Gordon Avenue stated he lives in the
next block and was concerned with the amount of traffic the
car wash WoUlid gene/nate . He stated that the Animal Hospital
on the south side of the street had a loading zone on Gordon
Avenue and there were three parking spaces on the south side of
the Street.
He stated this would make it very difficult to cars
entering and exiting the car wash.
It would cause the cars to
back up on Gordon Avenue, creating a dangerous situation.

�Mr. Elmer Kenyon, New Broadway stated there was only
31 feet from exit of the car waslf and Route 9 and traffic will
be blocked up onto Gordon Avenue. It will be difficult for
the Fire Department to get their apparatus up Gordon if cars
are parked on the south side and cars are exiting from the car
wash. It will create a dangerous condition.
Mrs. Mary Vizvary, 85 New Broadway stated she has
lived on New Broadway for 35 years and in the village over 60
years and stated Gordon Avenue is a residential street and
there is a lot of congestion now and many times it is difficult
to get out of Gordon Avenue onto Route 9. She also stated that
the plans as shown do not show Katrina Avenue which is nearby
and will be effected by the traffic.
Mr. James Timmings, Sr. 119 Rice Avenue stated that
the width of Gordon Avenue is 26 feet wide, and with 8 foot cars
parked on the south side of Gordon Avenue legally there isn't
enough room for another vehicle to pass.
Mr. Robert Riscolo, Car Wash Expert from Edison, N.J.
representing Mr. Pateman stated the car wash will be a full
service car wash and will be fully automated. He stated the
vacuuming will be completed inside rhe building,- at thfe entrance,
before it is washed.

Mr. Hrotko stated the car wash will be in use seven
days a week and there will be a lot of noise which will create
a nuisance.
Discussion followed regarding the amount of water to
be used, the number of cars to be coming and going and the number
of employees, the traffic on Route 9 at the intersection of
Beekman Avenue, New Broadway and Route 448.
Mr. James Timmings, Jr., 42 Gordon Avenue stated he
lives a block away from the site and was concerned about the
N.Y.D.O.T. report which states that 14,000 cars per day come
down Route 9. It will be very difficult for cars coming out
of the car wash to make a left turn onto Route 9.
Mr. Hritz read the letter from the D.O.T. dated July 7,
1993 regarding the State Environmental Quality Review-Traffic
Impact Study completed for the project. (Copy in official minutes).
Mr. Bernard Adler, Traffic Engineer Expert representing
Mr. Pateman, stated he was an engineer for thirty years, reported
on the traffic flow going north on Route 9 to Pocantico Street
and going south on Route 9 to Lawrence Avenue. He stated he
responded to Clark Associates comment in their recent memo and Mr.Adl
said the car wash would not impede traffic, would not be a safety
factor and would not be a detriment to the neighborhood.
Mr. Gene Buonanno, Gordon Avenue stated he lives
adjacent to the property owned by Mr. Pateman and common sense
tells us that any additional traffic to the street will have a
difficult time making a left turn onto Broadway.

�-4Mr. Gene Fiorella, Gordon Avenue resident stated he has
lived on Gordon Avenue for over forty years and he is against
the car wash aa there is congestion on Gordon Avenue and the Stree
is too narrow.
He also stated that parking is allowed on only
one side of the street.
Mr. Salman stated he would like a demonstration with six
or seven cars backing up Gordon Avenue, with cars parked on
the south side of Gordon Avenue and have a fire truck try to
enter into Gordon Avenue from Route 9.
Mr. James Timmings, Sr. stated he was also a Safety Engineer,
having worked as Chairman of Transportation for G.E. for many
years and stated the car wash would create a dangerous situation
on Gordon Avenue ,
Mr. Salman stated that cars being diverted up Gordon Avenue
onto New Broadway would also create a devastating situation
as New Broadway is also too narrow and too congested.
Mr. Howard Reynolds, Traffic Engineer with Clark Associates
stated that the Village should make sure what is proposed is what
is actually what will be buildt on the site, i.e.Not propose
full service and build convenient car wash.
He stated he has
studied the area dn feels there is a lack of width, especially
if the three parking spaces are allowed on the south side of
Gordon Avenue.
This could cause difficult in/out movements at
the car wash driveway, possibly affecting traffic entering Gordon
Avenue from Broadway.

Discussion followed
in the County.

regarding

the various types of car washes

Mr. Blancato stated he felt the Board should declare itself
lead agent for the project and would like the photos, site plan
and drawings presented to the Board be made a part of the record.
There being no further comments Mr. Caetano moved, seconded
by Mr. Salman that that the public hearing be adjourned, in order
to obtain further
information.
Carried.
Mr. Windas stated he was disappointed -*.
in the tra ffic study as
it does not give information regarding &lt;
idents reported, near
misses, the intersection of Gordon Avenuv. Ul. J " J c e Avenue and the
intersection at the tope of St. Paul's Hill.
Mr. Salman requested
intersection at the tope

that a Traffic Study be made of the
of St. Paul's Hill.

After a discussion M r . Blancato stated that the applicant
would make a Traffic Study of the intersection as requested.

�-5Mr. Salman moved, seconded by Mr. Windas to declare the
Planning Board Lead Agency for t^ie Project. Carried.

Ms. Susan Portman, Clark Assoc, stated that a memo,
dated July 8th, 1993 had been sent to the Planning Board outlining
their comments regarding the car wash. (Copy in official minutes).
IN THE MATTER OP THE PHILIPSBURG MANOR, UPPER MILL PARKING, NORTH
BROADWAY, NORTH TARRYTOWN, NEW YORK-CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS MEETING.
Mr. Hritz stated that the public hearing portion of the
meeting was closed at the last meeting,
Discussion followed regarding recreation fees, drainage
problems, type of durable and dustless material to be used to
pave the parking lot.
Mr. Robert Toole representative for the applicant
stated that he had conferred with Clark Associates and reported
on the various items that had been added to the site plan
as requested by the Board and they would like to wrap up the
project. He stated that up to date copies with all changes will
be presented to the Board members.
Mr. Gulino stated that all items referred to should be
on the drawings, type of material that will be used and that all
surfaces will be dustless and constantly maintained.
Mr. Hritz stated that this is a historic site and we
are trying to restore it to the original state, therefore blacktop
will not be used.
Mr. Toole stated that the parking lot would not be used
in the winter months and would be used to park buses after they
drop off guests at the front lot.
Mr. Salman moved, seconded by Mr. Windas that the
following resolution be adopted:
(COPY IN OFFICIAL MINUTES)
Mr. Hritz declared the motion carried.
Ms. Gandolfo stated that the ordinance "requires a
recreational fee of $1,000 per parking space and there will be
one hundred parking spaces. She stated that the code was not
intended for
historic sites, but the Board could not waive
the fee. She stated she spoke to the Mayor and they would make
a determination at the next Board of Trustees meeting. The
restoration will be willing to be a part of the "Greenway Project"
in lieu of the recreational fee.
Discussion regarding the issuance of a building permit
and the Building Inspector was directed to inspect the type of
material to be used and prior to the issuance of a building permit
a "signed, sealed site plan" was to be delivered to the Board.

�-6IN THE MATTER Of EMMA SERINA, LAWRENCE AVENUE, NORTH TARRYTOWN,
NEW YORK-2-STORY BUILDING-CONTINUED DISCUSSION.
Mr. Robert Barstow, Architect for the applicants stated
he had appeared before the Board several times regarding the
proposed two story building.
He stated that the Zoning Board had postponed their
decision as they needed more information and felt that the
Planning Board would make some recommendations to the applicant.
The Zoning Board was concerned about the placement of the building
on the lot line and the planting, of shubbery. H« will revise
the site plan and present it to the Board at their next meeting.
He stated that the Serina's own five licenses and have 5 cars,
which will be parked on the property at any given time.
Mrs. Serina stated that some of the cars will be parked
at the railroad station and not always parked on the property.
Mr. Barstow stated he did not have revised drawings
for the Board but would like the Board's comments, in order to
expedite the project.
Mr. Caetano, member of the Board stated he lived on
Lawrence Avenue and owned several properties there therefore,
he would not participate in the discussion as a member of the
Board. He stated the street was a residential street and did not
feel that a commercial use should be in the area as it would tend
to devaluate the homes on Lawrence Avenue. He also felt it would
set a precedent. He stated that Mr. Ruivo had a permit for an
office and then he turned it into an apartment.
Mr. Windas stated he felt the matter was a Zoning Board
issue and the Planning Board should not make a decision until
the issue is settled by the Zoning Board.
BasM on the information provided to the Board on the full
Environmental Assesiment Mr. Windas moved, seconded by Mr. Salman
that the Planning Board be declared the lead agency for the project, and
made a Negative Declaration.

Carried.

Mr. Caetano abstained.

Mr. Hritz stated that the next meeting of the Board would be
held on August 19th, 1993.
There being no further business to come before the meeting
Mr. Salman moved, seconded by Mr. Caetano that the same be duly adjourned.
Carried.

MEMORANDUM

To:

Village of North Tarrytown Planning Board

Date:

July 8, 1993

Subject:

Sleepy Hollow Car Wash - Traffic Review

As requested, we have reviewed the Traffic Impact Study prepared by
Adler Consulting, dated June 15, 1993. The purpose of the traffic
study was to evaluate traffic impacts on area roads of the proposed
car wash. If approved, it will be located on Gordon Avenue at the
intersection of North Broadway. Based on our review, we offer the
following comments.
1.

Scope of Traffic Study - In a March 23, 1993 memorandum to the
Planning Board, it was suggested that at a minimum the
following intersections be included in the Traffic Impact
Study to be prepared by the applicant:
a.

North Broadway at Pocantico Street;

b.

North Broadway at Gordon Avenue/Lawrence Avenue; and,

c.

New Broadway at Rice Avenue.

After a preliminary analysis was completed by the Village, the
Village
recommended
that
the North
Broadway/Beekman
Avenue/Bedford Road/New Broadway/Hudson Terrace intersection
be included in the traffic analysis. At first, the Village
recommended that its traffic consultant evaluate this
intersection separately and the applicant's traffic consultant
complete a traffic study to include the intersections listed
in the memorandum. However, based on further discussions with
the Village, it was agreed that it would be more appropriate
for the applicant's traffic consultant to complete a traffic
study which included the additional intersection to avoid any
duplication and to include all information in one traffic
study.
2.

Existing Traffic Volumes - The traffic study prepared by the
applicant's consultant is based on volume surveys conducted on
Thursday, April 8, 1993 and Saturday, April 10, 1993.

Connecticut • (203) 255-3100

FAX • (914) 9676615

Long Island • (516) 364-4544

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/ Development/Environment /Transportation

However, it should be noted that schools were closed during
the entire week and on the following Monday for the
Passover/Easter holidays, therefore, traffic volumes used in
the analysis may not represent "typical" conditions on area
roadways.
For comparison, traffic volume information was requested from
the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT). The
most recent volumes available from the NYSDOT are from 1988
from hourly machine counts on North Broadway, immediately
south of Gordon Avenue. This information shows a two-way
volume on North Broadway of 1,243 vehicles during the weekday
afternoon peak hour. Traffic volumes provided in the traffic
report show that during the weekday afternoon the two-way
traffic volume on North Broadway at the same location was 969
vehicles — or 274 vehicles less. This represents a decrease
of 22 percent. Traffic volumes generally increase one or two
percent per year due to normal growth, however, slight
decreases due to the recent economic downturn are not unusual.
Gordon Avenue, which will provide site access, carries at most
50 vehicles (two-way) near the site during the weekday
afternoon peak hour.
3.

Capacity Analysis Results - Existing Conditions - Capacity
analyses were completed for one signalized and two
unsignalized intersections to evaluate base conditions. The
analysis
procedure
is different
for
signalized
and
unsignalized intersections. For a signalized intersection,
capacity is defined for each approach and is based on volume,
roadway conditions, signal timing, lane widths and type of
traffic signal control. Unsignalized intersection capacity is
calculated for critical turning movements rather than the
entire intersection.
It was found that the North Broadway/Pocantico Street
intersection operates at an overall Level of Service "B"
during each peak hour.
At the North Broadway/Gordon
Avenue/Lawrence Avenue intersection, the Lawrence Avenue
approach operates at Level of Service "E" (capacity) during
the weekday afternoon peak hour and a Level of Service "C H on
Saturday during the midday peak hour. The New Broadway/Rice
Avenue intersection operates at Level of Service "A" during
both peak hours analyzed.

4.

Estimation of Site-Generated Traffic - The traffic analysis is
based on two levels of site traffic activity. For typical
conditions, it is estimated by the applicant that there will
be 40 vehicle trips (20 vehicle trips entering and 20 vehicle
2

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation

trips exiting) and for peak conditions 120 vehicle trips (60
vehicle trips entering and 60 vehicle trips exiting).
However, research conducted by the New England Car Wash
Association found that as many as 1,500 vehicles could be
processed — or during a 10-hour day an average of 150
vehicles could be processed per hour. For planning purposes,
the applicant's analysis could represent an "average"
condition, however, depending on conditions, demand may be
much higher.
5.

Estimation
of Distribution Patterns for Site-Generated
Traffic - It is estimated by the applicant that 40 percent of
the site traffic will arrive and depart via North Broadway to
the north and 46 percent along North Broadway to the south.
Further, it is estimated that 6 percent will use Lawrence
Avenue, 5 percent will use Pocantico Street, 2 percent will
use Gordon Avenue/Rice Street from New Broadway and the
remaining 1 percent will arrive and depart via Old Broadway.
We agree with the estimated distribution of site-generated
traffic and note that the majority of the site traffic will
arrive and depart via North Broadway to the south and pass
through
the
intersection
of
North
Broadway/Beekman
Avenue/Bedford Road/New Broadway/Hudson Terrace.
This
intersection was identified by the Village as a high-volume
intersection which needs to be studied by the applicant to
determine impact of the proposed development. However, the
applicant has not analyzed this intersection and, therefore,
no assessment of impact is available.

6.

Capacity Analyses - Future Conditions - Capacity analyses were
completed for future background and combined traffic
conditions to determine impact of the proposed development on
area roadways and intersections.
It was found for both
typical and peak conditions that this project will have only
a minor impact on overall traffic operations, except at the
North Broadway/Gordon Avenue/Lawrence Avenue intersection.
The Level of Service at this intersection on Saturday changed
from "C" to "D" implying longer traffic delays for traffic
movements out of the side streets onto North Broadway. For
the weekday afternoon peak hour, the side street approach
already operates at Level of Service "E" and reserve capacity
will decrease, creating longer traffic delays.
In the traffic report (page 17), it is noted that the change
in Level of Service from "C" to "D" at the North Broadway/
Gordon Avenue/Lawrence Avenue intersection is only a function
of the definition of Levels of Service and the fact that the
value has just transitioned to a new classification. In our
3

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation

opinion, this is not only a new classification, but a way of
identifying impact from the proposed development on traffic
conditions at any intersection.
This change in Level of
Service represents added traffic delay due to traffic from
this development. Results of the analysis show that a very
low level of reserve capacity will remain on the side street
approaches.
7.

Queuing Analysis - It is noted in the document that the car
wash conveyer belt can service between 40 and 50 vehicles per
hour. It is also noted that the belt speed can be increased
to accommodate between 80 and 100 vehicles per hour and that
this would accommodate even peak traffic conditions for site
traffic, it was determined by the applicant that because the
belt speed can be increased to accommodate any level of sitegenerated traffic, that little or no traffic will queue off
the site on Gordon Avenue.
The processing rate is, however, only part of a queuing
analysis. The second major variable is the demand rate and
the Board should understand that if the demand rate exceeds
the processing rate, queuing will result. The extent of the
queue will depend on the difference between the two rates and,
unfortunately, we have no market studies or other information
with which to complete the equation.
If site traffic can be processed at a rate commensurate with
the demand rate, any delays on Gordon Avenue would be kept to
a minimum or possibly not exist at all. However, the traffic
report does not identify the narrow pavement of Gordon Avenue,
impact of on-street parking available across the street from
the proposed access drives, and the limited distance between
the North Broadway intersection and the entrance/exit access
drives to the car wash.
The traffic analysis does show that there will be long traffic
delays on the side street approach to North Broadway on Gordon
Avenue, which will impact the operation of the car wash since
site traffic may not be able to exit onto Gordon Avenue. If
delays occur at the exit, the rate of vehicle processing will
be limited. If this is the case, site traffic could actually
spill over to the on-site storage area and possibly onto
Gordon Avenue, creating traffic delays in both directions on
Gordon Avenue.
Gordon Avenue has a curb-to-curb width of approximately 24
feet. Parking is permitted along the southerly side of the
street
— 40 feet from the North Broadway intersection.
4

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/ Development/ Environment/Transportation

Currently, there is insufficient width for two-way traffic and
parking.
8.

Accident History - The applicant obtained accident reports
from the Village Police Department and noted that there were,
on average, four accidents per year between 1988 and 1992 at.
the intersection of North Broadway/Gordon Avenue/Lawrence
Avenue. No accident pattern was identified and no mitigation,
has been suggested to improve traffic conditions. However, it
would be helpful if accident types were identified. Also,
accident history for the other intersections was not provided,
as had been requested.

9.

Summary - The traffic study presented by the applicant,
includes three intersections plus site driveways to evaluates
impact. However, the traffic study shows that 46 percent of"
its site traffic will pass through the North Broadway/Beekmarx
Avenue/Bedford Road/New Broadway/Hudson Terrace intersectiont
which was not studied. A zoning study prepared for the same*
intersection by Frederick P. Clark Associates, September 6,
1988, noted that this intersection had a poor configuration!
for efficient traffic flow and probably could not be*
significantly improved. It was recommended that the Zoning*
Board not permit types or intensities of land use which woulo\
further degrade traffic conditions at this intersection.
Also, the NYSDOT completed "A Traffic Operations and SafetyStudy" for Route 9 which included this intersection ir\
September 1989. This intersection was identified as having*
future operational problems and, therefore, improvements w e r ^
recommended.

In conclusion, we recommend that the applicant provide the Village
with additional information with regard to impacts to Gordon Avenue
adjacent to the site and consider possible mitigation at t h ^
intersection of North Broadway/Gordon Avenue/Lawrence Avenue, ir^
appropriate, to mitigate capacity deficiencies on the side street
approaches. Further, it is recommended that the applicant provide
additional information with regard to the North Broadway/Beekman*.
Avenue/Bedford Road/New Broadway/Hudson Terrace intersection. T h ^
analysis should include any recommendations proposed by the NYSDOX?
and should identify any schedule the NYSDOT may have for providing
these improvements.

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation

Based on traffic information provided to date, at a minimum,
parking should be removed on Gordon Avenue between North Broadway
and Katina Place (three spaces), a double yellow centerline should
be installed and curb radii should be increased on the Gordon
Avenue approach to North Broadway. In addition, the Village should
consider prohibiting left turns out of the site, if the project is
approved. It is our opinion that the proposed access drives will
be too close to the North Broadway intersection to allow the left
turn and traffic delays could result which may spill over onto
North Broadway.

To:

Date:

Subject:

Philipse Plaza Site Plan Application

As stated in our March 12, 1993 memorandum, this is a Type I action
under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA). After
the Full Environmental Assessment Form (EAF) is submitted by the
Applicant, the Planning Board may declare its intent to be Lead
Agency in the review of this application. The notice of intent and
a copy of the application, plan and EAF should then be circulated
to the involved and interested agencies.
Since this application will require variances from the Zoning Board
of Appeals (ZBA) , the ZBA is an involved agency. According to the
Village Attorney, the ZBA should not make a decision on the
variances until it receives the completed application, including
EAF, so that it can make an informed decision.
We would also
recommend that the ZBA defer its final decision until the SEQRA
process is completed.

Subject:

Philipsbura Manor Upper Mill Site Plan Application

Jim Donovan, of our office, has conducted an inspection of the
property and does not believe that the area of the proposed parking
contains any wetland. The site plan application does, however,
still need to be accompanied by an application to the Planning
Board for a wetland permit, due to any proposed improvements to the
path and any other areas within 100 feet of the Pocantico River, as
this area is regulated under the Village of North Tarrytown
Wetland/Watercourse Protection Law. Since the Village currently
has no official wetland application form, the Applicant should
refer to the Wetland Law, §61-10, for information on what needs to
be submitted.
As stated in our April 15, 1993 memorandum, this is a Type I action
under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA).
The
Applicant must prepare a Full Environmental Assessment Form (EAF).
The EAF should discuss the proposals of both applications. Since
there are no other involved agencies, after the EAF is submitted by
the Applicant, the Planning Board may declare itself Lead Agency in
the review of this application. The EAF, application and plan will
also need to be formally referred to the Westchester County
Planning Board for review pursuant to §239M of the General
Municipal Law.

Review of Revised Site Plan for Sleepy Hollow Car Wash

As requested, we have reviewed the following revised site plan for
the proposed Sleepy Hollow Car Wash on the former Pickwick Post
property, which is located at the intersection of North Broadway
and Gordon Avenue, in the C-l Highway Commercial District:
"Site Development Plan Prepared for Charles M. Pateman, Frank
Racanelli, Thomas J. Lupetin," dated March 2, 1993 and revised
April 22, 1993, prepared by Cronin and Associates, P.E., P.C.
REVIEW COMMENTS
1.

Parking and Loading: A handicapped parking space has been
added to the plan. All four parking spaces have been moved to
the opposite side of the proposed building.
It should be
noted that the vehicles which will utilize these spaces (in
either the current or original proposed location) will be
parking with the driver-side door next to the building, unless
these vehicles turn around on the property or enter through
the bypass exit on North Broadway.
The required loading space has been added to the plan.

2.

Circulation: We anticipate that the storage capacity of the
on-site vehicle waiting area will be included in the traffic
study.

3.

Landscaping: A grass area is shown on the plan between the
car wash building and Gordon Avenue. The semi-circle portion
of this grass area, which extends beyond the property line,
should have a curb and be constructed of sidewalk materials.
It is not clear what is to occur in the area between the
proposed building and the five-foot wide planting strip near
North Broadway. If this area is not to be used for parking or
circulation, we would recommend the Applocant examine the
feasibility of landscaping this area.

4.

Environmental Review: As stated in previous reports, this
application is a Type I action under State Environmental
Quality Review Act (SEQRA). We have completed Part 2 of the
attached Full Environmental Assessment Form (EAF). At this
time, the Planning Board may declare its intent to be Lead
Agency in the review of this application.
Since this
application will require a variance from the Zoning Board of
Appeals (ZBA), the ZBA is an involved agency.
Interested
agencies include New York State Department of Transportation
(Poughkeepsie and Valhalla), Westchester County Planning
Board, Westchester County Health Department and New York State
Department of Environmental Conservation (Albany and New
Paltz).
The Planning Board's notice of intent to be Lead
Agency will need to be circulated to the involved and
interested agencies. Attached is a draft notice of intent for
circulation.
The ZBA will have a maximum of 30 days to
respond to the notice. The Planning Board can declare itself
Lead Agency after it receives a response from the ZBA stating
that it does not object to the Planning Board being Lead
Agency or after the 30 day period has expired, whichever comes
first. Within 20 days of declaration of Lead Agency, the Lead
Agency must make a positive or negative determination of
significance.
Copies of the proposed site plan, EAF and application should
be circulated with the notice of intent. The Applicant should
provide additional copies of the site plan for circulation.
According to the Village Attorney, the ZBA should not make a
decision on the variance until it receives all of the relevant
materials (e.g. EAF, application, site plan) so that it can
make an informed decision. We would also recommend that the
ZBA defer its final decision until the SEQRA process is
completed.
It is our understanding that the Applicant is
currently preparing a traffic study.

Preliminary Review of Serina Site Plan

As requested, we have reviewed the site plan application for a
property which is 2,207 square feet in size and is located on the
western side of Lawrence Avenue, in the R-5 Residential District.
The site presently contains a one-story dilapidated garage and has
some broken paving and grass. The Applicant is proposing the
demolition of the existing garage and construction of a two-story
1,320 square foot office and apartment building.
The Applicant has submitted the following plan:
"Proposed Mixed-Use / 2 Story, Emma B. Serina, 9 Lawrence
Ave., N. Tarrytown, N.Y.," scale 1" = 10', dated April 15,
1993, prepared by Barstow Architects.
REVIEW COMMENTS
1.

Site Plan Contents: The site plan should have a north arrow,
and should show sidewalks, curb cuts and opposite side of the
street and an area map showing all streets and property within
1,000 feet of the Applicant's property at a scale of 1" =
400'.
If a dumpster will be placed on the property its
location should be shown on the plan.

2.

Parking and Circulation: We assume that half of the proposed
building (or 660 square feet) is to be used for office and
half for one residential apartment. Two parking spaces are
required for the office use and one for the apartment. As
shown on the plan, all four of the spaces would require the
vehicles to back out onto Lawrence Avenue, which we do not
support. Spaces number 1 and 2 are undersized and should be
redesigned to 9 * by 20' as required in the Code of the Village
of North Tarrytown. The Applicant should indicate how the
area labelled "driveway" will be used.
According to the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) , one of
the spaces shown on the plan should be designed and designated

as a handicapped space with an accessible route to the
building. Section 4.1.1(5a) of ADA states the following:
"In new construction, a person or entity is not required
to meet fully the requirements of these guidelines where
that person or entity can demonstrate that it is
structurally impracticable to do so. Full compliance
will be considered structurally impracticable only in
those rare circumstances when the unique characteristics
of terrain prevent the incorporation of accessibility
features. If full compliance with the requirements of
these guidelines is structurally impracticable, a person
or entity shall comply with the requirements to the
extent it is not structurally impracticable."
The Applicant should either provide the handicapped space or,
if the Applicant believes it is impracticable, demonstrate why
it is impracticable.
Section 62-14.B(2) of the Code states, "In R Districts. The
required off-street parking space for more than two (2)
vehicles may not be located in a required front yard." The
proposed location of the parking area within the required
front yard area will require an area variance from the Village
Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA).
Section 62-22.A states that, for commercial uses, "Entrance
and exit driveways shall be not less than fifteen (15) feet
nor more than twenty-five (25) feet in width, measured along
the street line." The entrance to the parking area is shown
along the entire frontage of the property, which measures over
43 feet. Consequently, a variance from this standard will
also be required. Section 62-22.B. states, "Entrance and exit
driveways shall be located not less than fifteen (15) feet
from a side lot line, measured along the street line." The
entrance driveway does not conform to this requirement either.
In addition, §62-14.C "No access drive or driveway in any RDistrict shall be used to provide access to uses other than
those permitted in such R-Districts." The plan must either be
redesigned or multiple variances obtained in order to comply
with these requirements.
A loading space is required for an office use but one is not
shown. A variance waiving this requirement will need to be
requested when the Applicant applies for the other variances.

Buffer:

Section 62-14.D of the Code states,

"Off-street parking areas for three (3) or more vehicles
... shall be effectively screened by a fence or hedge as
provided in §62-9.C. The screening shall be on the side
or sides which adjoin or face premises situated in any RDistrict ..."
Section 62-9.C requires a five-foot wide buffer area to be
provided in addition to any side or rear yard. The buffer is
to include a fence and landscaping. The Applicant would need
an area variance for the width of the buffer area. A hedge
should be provided along the side yards to screen the parking
area.
4.

Zoning Compliance: According to the Building Inspector, the
site plan should comply with the bulk standards identified in
the Schedule of Regulations for the use "Other" in the R-5
District, but when and if a use variance is approved, the ZBA
will need to determine which bulk standards should be used.
The plan conforms with the requirements for maximum lot
coverage, minimum lot width and one of the minimum side yard
setbacks. The required minimum lot size is 4,000 square feet
and the existing lot is only 2,207 square feet. The minimum
front, rear and one of the side yard setbacks shown on the
plan are smaller than the size required by the Village Code,
which would also require the granting of additional multiple
variances in order to proceed.
The site plan could be redesigned in order to reduce the
intensity of the nonconforming features. A few alternatives
may be:
•Rotate the location of the proposed building 90 degrees
and center the building on the property behind the
parking area. This may lessen the nonconformity of the
side and rear yards and would permit the parking spaces
to conform to the required size. Moving the building
location could also prevent any interference of the
proposed two-story building with the trees on the
adjacent property to the south.
•Redesign the parking area so that the spaces are all the
required size and will not force drivers to back out onto
the street. Spaces 1 and 2 could be rotated 90 degrees,
the area where spaces 3 and 4 are shown could be used as
the driveway area and spaces 3 and 4 could be moved to
the area labelled "driveway." This could also alleviate
the nonconforming oversized curb cut along the entire
3

Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation

frontage of the property by reducing the size of the
driveway entrance.
•The building could be built to three stories, with
parking
at
grade
level
under
the
building.
Alternatively, the building could be designed to overhang
a portion of the parking area.
The proposed office use is not a permitted use in the R-5
District. Moreover, §62-12.B of the Code states:
"In any R-District, only a single-family detached
dwelling may be erected on a nonconforming lot, provided
that the front, side and rear yards of any such lot shall
comply with the normal requirements for the district
within which the lot is located."
A use variance from the ZBA would be needed for the office
use.
Environmental Review; The Applicant has submitted a short
Environmental Assessment Form (EAF). According to Part 617.12
of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA), this is
a Type I action because the property is located within the
Hudson River Shoreline Critical Environmental Area (CEA) . The
Applicant is required to submit a full (long form) EAF for a
Type I action. After review of the full EAF, the Planning
Board may declare its intent to be Lead Agency in the review
of this action. A notice of intent to be Lead Agency should
then be circulated to the involved (i.e. ZBA) and interested
(e.g. New York State Department of Environmental Conservation)
agencies. After 30 days or receipt of the responses from the
other agencies, whichever comes first, the Planning Board may
declare itself Lead Agency, as long as no other involved
agency objects, and make a determination of significance. The
Lead Agency's preparation of a negative declaration or a
findings statement (following a positive declaration and the
preparation of an environmental impact statement) would
complete the SEQRA review process. We recommend that the ZBA
defer its final decision until the SEQRA process is completed.

FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM
'urpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project
*br action may be significant The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasureable. It is also understood that those who determine
significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technically expert in environmental
analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting
the question of significance.
The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination
process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action.
Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts:
Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project
data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3.
Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides
guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentiallylarge impact The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced.
Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the
impact is actually important

�Part 2-PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE
Responsibility of Lead Agency
Ceneral Information (Read Carefully)
• In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by the question: Have my responses and determinations been
reasonable? The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst
• Identifying that an impact will be potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant.
Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in column 2 simply
asks that it be looked at further.
• The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of
magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State and
for most situations. But, for any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate
for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3.
• The impacts of each project, on each site, in each locality, will vary. Therefore, the examples are illustrative and
have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question.
• The number of examples per question does not indicate the importance of each question.
• In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumlative effects.
Instructions (Read carefully)
a. Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact
b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers.
c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column 1 or 2) to indicate the potential size of the
impact If impact threshold equals or exceeds any example provided, check column 2. if impact will occur but threshold
is lower than example, check column 1.
d. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3.
e. If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by changes) in the project to a small to moderate
impact, also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible. This
must be explained in Part 3.

IN THE MATTER OF THE VILLAGE OF NORTH TARRYTOWN. 103 FARRINGTON
AVENUE. NORTH TARRYTOWN. NEW YORK
A public hearing was held to hear and consider the application
of the Village of North Tarrytown which is seeking a wetlands
permit to install riprap along the edges of an unnamed creek
flowing across the property located at 103 Farrington Avenue.
Mr. Galgano stated that the Planning Board is the lead agency.
Mr. Fitzpatrick who resides at 142 Farrington Avenue stated that
his property abuts the rear of 103 Farrington Avenue.
Mr.
Fitzpatrick asked if Frederick P. Clark did a survey of the whole
brook or did they stop at the Sohn property?
Mr. Galgano stated he has not seen anything in their report about
where they stopped. Mr. Fitzpatrick stated that the main problem
with the brook is where it enters the pipe. He has no objection
to the Sohns shoring up their land, but the lower half of the
brook towards 142 Farrington is the major problem. If Mr. Sohn
shores up the side of the brook and lets the water run free there
is going to be more of a problem. Mr. Fitzpatrick feels that the
Village should address the whole brook. The brook runs through a
lot of area. They dump into an 18 to 24 inch pipe which goes
into a catch basin or a man hole which is on his property line
and into a 36 inch pipe.
When it rains or thunderstorms, that
brook runs into a lake. He feels before anything is done the
Village should look into the problem a little further.
Mr. Salman stated that the engineer who looked at the situation
was not in attendance.
Mr. Gulino stated that CAMCE was not
asked to look at the situation, James Hahn had looked at the
brook.

�A representative from the Philipse Manor Improvement Association
asked if the Board would consider the affect on the entire
community before it approves a motion, because this problem
affects a number of neighbors in the area.
Mr. Salmon stated the Board should go into this with a little
more detail since there is some concern with the neighbors. Mr.
Salman also has a letter of June 9, 1992 and there is no
description as to the depth of the study. Mr. Fitzpatrick said
that there have been different engineers over the past 10 years
but there is nothing in writing.
Mr. Windas stated that they could ask the Board of Trustees'
permission to do a comprehensive study. Mr. Gulino stated that
he would need authorization from the Village in order to do a
study. Mr. Salman was concerned if the study had already been
completed and if the study from 1992 is sufficient. It was the
intent of the Board to have everything completed by the next
meeting.
Mr. Donovan made a motion to continue the public hearing at the
next meeting which will be July 22, 1993 seconded by Mr. Ayers.
Motion carried unanimously.
IN THE MATTER OF THE PHILIPSEBURG MANOR, UPPER MILL PARKING.
NORTH BROADWAY. NORTH TARRYTOWN. NEW YORK
Ms. Mary Vizvary who resides at 85 New Broadway stated that her
mother has been a resident of Pleasant Street for 50 years. Ms.
Vizvary has seen the plans ant it shows the entrance and the exit
at the beginning of Continental Street which is a one-way street
going west. She asked if there will be an overflow of traffic
because it is narrow at the top of Continental St.
A representative of Historic Hudson Valley stated that the flow
would come out of Howard Street. The trees will still exist.
Ms. Vizvary asked if they would think about the location of the
entrance and the exit because there aren't enough parking spaces
on Continental Street now.
Mr. Salman stated that at last meeting it was mentioned that the
lot would be locked at night for security purposes.
The
representative said it will be locked and because it is a
seasonal lot, it would only be opened when the main lot is full.
This will not be an event lot where everyone will leave right
after; it is a rotational lot to bus people around. The tour
would have 15 people per tour.
Ms. Fannie Stone asked if the buses will be going through
Continental Street because the road is not that wide.
The
representative from the Historic Hudson Valley stated that the
buses will be used in the visitors lot. These will be shuttle
buses.

�Mr. John Cappello asked if commercial buses would also be in the
new area?
It was stated no, they allow only
four to five
shuttle buses in the front. Larger buses will be closer to the
visitors lot. The property will not be over booked. They will
only allow as much as they can handle.
Mr. Slaman stated that in the final agreement it should read that
vehicles larger than passenger size vans will not be allowed in
the visitors lot.
A motion was made by Mr. Ayers to close the public hearing
seconded by Mr. Salman. Motion carried unanimously.
DISCUSSION
Mr. Windas stated that the proposals that were included in
Frederick P. Clarks study such as the two way drive, signage and
landscaping should be incorporated in the final site plan. Mr.
Robert Toole agreed to make the changes and put them into final
form.
A motion was made by Mr. Windas that the project will not result
in any large impact and, therefore, will not have a significant
impact on the environment. A negative declaration will be
prepared. The motion was seconded by Mr. Donovan and carried
unanimously.
A motion was made by Mr. Salman to approve the preliminary site
plan subject to conditions that will be on the final site plan,
seconded by Mr. Ayers. Motion carried unanimously.
IN THE MATTER OF EMMA SERINA. LAWRENCE AVENUE. NORTH TARRYTOWN.
NEW YORK
Mr. Barstow stated that he was in attendance to submit the
environmental review form requested by the Planning Board. He
received a copy of Frederick P. Clarks review.
The applicant does not need approval from the Department of
Health, according to Susan Portman.
Mr. Salman stated that he was concerned about the combination of
residential and business uses. He was also concerned about
residential nature of the neighborhood or encroachment of
commercial establishments within the area. He feels it should
stay residential.
Mr. Galgano feels that this would be a better option than what is
there now.

�Mr. Serina stated that at one time this property was used by a
roofing company. This property has always been commercial.
Ms. Portman stated that the applicant needed to proceed with the
environmental review process before the Planning Board.
They have not been to the Zoning Board. Variances are required
because it is a mixed use. Mr. Margotta stated that they did not
have time to go to the Zoning Board. At the same time they could
go to the Zoning Board, but they would not get their final
decision until the SEQRA process is completed.
Mr. Windas' recommendation is to send the applicant to the Zoning
Board before the Planning Board reviews the site plan
application.
A motion was made by Mr. Salman to continue the public hearing
until the next meeting which will be held on July 22, 1993,
seconded by Mr. Donovan. Motion carried unanimously.
IN THE MATTER OF CHARLES M. PATEMAN. FRANK RACANELLI AND THOMAS
J. LUPETIN, NORTH BROADWAY AND GORDON AVENUE. NORTH TARRYTOWN,
NEW YORK
The attorney for the applicants, Mr. Richard Blancato,
distributed copies of a traffic impact study completed by the
applicants traffic engineer. He stated that the engineer would
be present at the next meeting to answer any questions regarding
the study.
It was asked whether the study which was being
submitted included the area of the intersection of Route 448,
Route 9 and Beekman Avenue. The Planning Board had requested
that the study include this intersection during the meeting in
May. Mr. Blancato stated that his traffic engineer advised the
applicants not to go ahead with that part of the study because he
felt it was irrelevant. The Board members had a different view
and were concerned that the window of opportunity to include this
area in the study had been lost because the schools are recessed
for the summer. The Board agreed to look at the traffic study
submitted by the applicant ant to hear the comments of Frederick
P. Clark Assoc, before making ga final determination as to
whether the study should include the above-mentioned
intersection.
After a short discussion, a motion was made by Mr. Salman to
declare the intent of the Planning Board to declare itself lead
agency, seconded by Ms. Tsangaris. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Blancato stated to the Board that the Zoning Board had given
the interpretation that a car wash is not a gasoline station and
therefore, a permitted use. Discussion ensued as to whether any
variances were required for the site and the question was
referred to the Building Inspector.

�Chairman Galgano opened the public hearing for comments.
Mr. James Timmings, Rice Avenue, stated that there would be a
hardship on emergency equipment if a car wash were built at the
site. Also, on New Broadway, the traffic light only allows two
to three cars to pass during one sequence.
A car wash will
create more traffic congestion. The people who live in Webber
Park have always s felt pressure from the automotive uses in that
area. The safety of the many children who live in the area needs
to be taken into consideration.
Mr. George Hritz, President of the Sleepy Hollow Taxpayers
Association, appreciates the Board's careful attention to this
matter. He referred them to a letter dated May 8, 1993 sent by
the Association which urged the Planning Board to oppose a car
wash at the site for traffic and environmental reasons.
In response to a question, Mr. Pateman stated that there will be
no vacuum cleaners on the site.
A representative of the Philipse Manor Improvement Association,
stated that it is a contradiction for the Village to allow a car
wash in that are when the emphasis has been on the historic value
of the are. He stated that a car wash would not enhance the
historic value of the area and objected to the name of Sleepy
Hollow Car Wash for the project as he felt it compromised the
historic nature of the name.
He also questioned whether the
water from the car wash would be drained into municipal sewer's
and to the Yonkers plant to be recycled. Mr. Galgano stated that
these questions would be answered by the applicant throughout the
site plan review.
Mr. Frank Hrotko, Gordon Avenue, stated that everyday the Buick
dealership test drives their cars through Webber Park.
He
suggested that ta car counter be placed at the location to see
how much traffic there actually is.
A representative from Historic Hudson Valley expressed concern as
to where the water from the car wash will drain. The pond at the
he Manor has more wildlife now and he is concerned about the
environmental impact. Also, in the past few years, they have had
problems with oil leaking into the pond from the service stations
along Route 9.
Ms. Vizvary stated that the Board should take into consideration
that the autodealer loads and unloads vehicles during day hours
near the location.

�Mr. Eugene Buonanno, state that the condition of the lot is a
disgrace. The lot is filled with litter and cars. The traffic
would be unbearable if a car wash were built. Broadway could
not tolerate the traffic, and therefore, the traffic would be
backed up on to Gordon Avenue. It would crate a hazardous and
unsafe condition.
He recommended that the Board be careful
before any approvals are given.
Ms. Millie Pellechi, Webber Avenue, stated that there is a lot of
congestion on Route and this would cause more havoc in the area.
The Board should take this into consideration.
Mr. Fiorella, Gordon Avenue stated that in the past few years
there have been more children in the area and this should be
taken into consideration.
Mr. Donovan questioned whether having a car wash was the best use
for the site.
Mr. Blancato stated that he hoped to answer the residents'
questions at the next meeting.
Mr. Timmings stated that Katrina Avenue should be included in the
traffic study.
Ms. Tsangaris made a motion to continue the public hearing at
the next meeting, seconded by Mr. Salman.
Motion passed
unanimously.
Mr. Donovan questioned the idea
considering the upgrade in the area.

York.
Present: James Galgano, Chairman
Steve Salman
Roman Windas
James Donovan
Edward McCarthy

Absent:

Ellen Tsangaris

Also Present:

James Margotta, Building Inspector
Robert Spencer, Village Attorney

Chairman Galgano called the meeting to order at 8 P.M.
1.

Preliminary Hearing - Philipse Plaza. North Broadway-Store.

The Architect for the project described the proposed building
to be built on the site, stating it would be a mixed use building
with commercial space on the first floor and office space on the
upper level. The artchitect stated he would be appearing before
the Zoning Board and would request a change in zoning.
Frederick Clark Associates, Inc. presented a Preliminary
Review of Philipse Plaza.
Discussion followed regarding the status of Uncle Jerry's
Deli and the retaining walls at the rear of the property.
Mr.Windas stated that Antonio's Cabinetry had been granted
approval as a separate building with a separate parking area. Any
future construction on an adjoining parcel must stand on its own.
He stated that Antonio's must have its own parking area and the new
building should have its own.
*
Discussion followed. The Board asked to review the plot plan
that had been submitted and approved for Antonio's Cabinetry. ,
The architect stated that all the buildings would have
sufficient parking even if the two buildings were owned by
different owners.
1

�Mr.Spencer noted that the property is located in the C-l
zone.
The C-l zone includes the following as permitted principal uses:
stores and shops for retail business and personal or business
services, and planned commercial development group. Offices are
not permitted in the C-l zone. Hence, the applicant needs to
obtain a zone change or obtain a use variance. Mr.Spencer further
noted that the drawings for the proposed project did indicate that
there would not be sufficient parking on the portion of the
premises used for Antonio's Cabinetry unless the lots were merged
and the entire property was considered a planned commercial
development group. The drawings appeared to provide for sufficient
parking for a planned commercial development group. The applicant
needs to decide if the project is to be considered a planned
commercial development group.
Mr. Donovan moved, seconded by Mr. Windas to refer the matter
to the Zoning Board for a use variance. Carried unanimously.
2. C M . Pateman. North Broadway-Informal Discussion on former
Pickwick Post Property and construction of Car Wash.
Mr. Pateman presented plans for a car wash on the portion of
the former Pickwick Post Restaurant property on North Broadway.
The former Pickwick Post property also includes residential lots on
Gordon Avenue.
The lots on North Broadway are zoned C-l
commercial; the lots on Gordon Avenue are zoned R-4 for one and
two family houses. Mr. Spencer stated the applicant did not have
to split the residential lots from the commercial lots. There is
a question whether a subdivision will be required for the
undersized residential lots to build three houses on those lots.
The permitted principal uses in the C-l zone include the
following:
gasoline service station and stores and shops for
retail business and personal or business services. A gasoline
service station includes a car wash as a permitted ancillary use.
Mr. Spencer stated that in his opinion the proposed car wash could
be considered a gas station under the Zoning Code, but that it
could not be considered a store or shop for retail business or
personal or business services. Section 62-19 of the Zoning Code
requires a 300 foot separation between a gasoline service station
and any public or private school, public library, museum, civic
center, hospital, church, public park or playground, fire station
or another gasoline service station. There are several gasoline
service stations within 300 feet of the proposed car wash. Hence,
the applicant must obtain an area variance.
Mr. Pateman stated that the residential portion of the
property would be a separate application. He stated that the car
wash would occupy 20% of the lot whereas the zoning allows 60%
coverage.
2

�Dr. Salman stated his concern about the traffic flow on
Gordon Avenue which is a narrow street and the intersection of
Broadway and Gordon Avenue.
Mr. Pateman stated that a complete traffic analysis would be
presented at the next meeting.
Mr. Donovan stated he would like to see some other type of
construction on the property, like a restaurant.
Discussion followed regarding a change of zoning to allow
other types of construction.
Mr. Pateman stated that 80% of the water used will be
recycled. He also stated that no area variances will be required.
There will be no machines located outside the building.
Mr. Windas moved, seconded by Mr. McCarthy, to set a
Preliminary Hearing on April 15th. Carried unanimously.
MINUTES:
Dr. Salman moved, seconded by Mr. Donovan, to approve the
Minutes of the meeting held on February 18th, 1993 as submitted.
Carried unanimously.
Discussion followed regarding fees to be paid by Mr.
Rodriguez in the amount of $5,000. before Site Plan Review.
Mr. Margotta was directed to notify Mr. Rodriguez to deposit the
funds with The Village .
Dr. Salman stated that the Board should petition the Board
of Trustees to change the Zoning on Route 9 and Gordon Avenue from
C-2 and C-l Business.
Mr. Margotta was instructed to send a memo to the Zoning
Board to inform them of the Board's feeling about the Petitioner's
Application for a car wash.
The Planning Board would like the Board of Trustees to
upgrade the area with a change in zoning as they feel the area is
becoming "gasoline alley".
Mr. Spencer reported that he had reviewed the escrow account
of Bedford Park and reported a $2,000. balance.
After discussion, memo is to be sent to the Village Treasurer
to give the Board a monthly accounting of all escrow accounts that
pertain to the Planning Board.

�There being no further business to come before the Board,
Mr. Donovan moved, seconded by Dr. Salman, that the same be duly
adjourned. Carried unanimously.
Respectfully submitted.

MEMORANDUM
To:

Village of North Tarrytown Planning Board

Date:

March 12, 1993

Subject:

Preliminary Review of Philipse Plaza

Introduction
As requested, we have reviewed the application for the proposed
Zoning Map amendment and site plan approval for a property of
approximately 42,800 square feet located along the east side of
North Broadway, opposite Philipsburg Manor and at the intersection
of North Broadway and Pocantico Street, in the C-l Highway
Commercial District.
portions of the site are steep and the property currently contains
two buildings.
One building houses Antonio Cabinetry (a
manufacturing use) and the other contains Uncle Jerry's Italian
Deli (a delicatessen use). Antonio Cabinetry was the subject of a
site plan application which was approved February 20, 1992, and
received use and area variances.
Proposal
The applicant proposes to redevelop a currently unappealing and
underutilized property with a more attractive two-story building.
The applicant requests a zoning change for the subject property
from C-l Highway Commercial to C-2 General Commercial in order to
build a retail and office building (containing 4,400 square feet of
retail and 6,000 square feet of office space), demolish the
existing deli building (which the applicant requested to remain
standing and in operation until the new building is complete) and
continue the manufacturing use of the Antonio Cabinetry building.
When complete, the buildings on this property will comprise a
"planned commercial development group" as defined in the Village
Code because of the single ownership of the two buildings and the
"certain facilities in common, such as yards, open space, ... and
parking areas."

�Application
The applicant has submitted the following plans:
1.

Sheet 1, "Site Plan:
Philipse Plaza, Village of North
Tarrytown, New York," dated February 22, 1993, prepared by
Contadino Architects;

2.

Sheet 2, "Ground Floor Plan and Second Floor Plan: Philipse
Plaza, Village of North Tarrytown, New York," dated February
22, 1993, prepared by Contadino Architects; and

3.

Sheet
3,
"Elevations,
Philipse
Plaza,
Village
of
North Tarrytown, New York," dated February 22, 1993, prepared
by Contadino Architects.

Analysis and Recommendations
1.

Zoning Map Amendment: The procedure that is required in order
to amend the Zoning Map is contained within Section 62-53 of
the Village Code. During its review of an application for
rezoning, the Board of Trustees is required to refer the
application to the Planning Board for a review and
recommendation.
The rezoning and site plan reviews can
coincide if the Village so desires, although the rezoning
resolution would have to precede the site plan resolution.
Rezoning one relatively small property at the request of that
property's owner to a zoning designation which is different
than the surrounding zoning may be considered "spot zoning."
Therefore, the Village may wish to consider rezoning a larger
portion of the C-l District; for example, that portion of the
C-l District opposite Philipsburg Manor, which might include
this property and other properties in this section of the C-l
District which are located on the east side of North Broadway
between the Pocantico River to the north and the intersection
with Pocantico Street to the southwest. The exact area to be
recommended for rezoning would require further study.
Although the Village's master plans recommend the continuation
of automotive-related highway commercial development for this
area, given the current economic climate and the value of
Philipsburg Manor to the Village's image, such a rezoning
might be expected to encourage attractive redevelopment of
this area, which serves as the northern "gateway" to the
Village's central business district.
If, on the other hand, the Village determines that a rezoning
is not appropriate, the applicant may try to obtain a use
variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals for the proposed
2

�office use and any delicatessen, restaurant or other types of
uses not permitted in the C-l District (general retail use is
permitted in the C-l District).
Zoning Standards; The building lot coverage maximum is the
same in the C-l and C-2 Districts for planned commercial
development groups. A planned commercial development group is
permitted a maximum of 35 percent building lot coverage. The
proposal complies with this standard. This project should be
considered a planned development group since it fits the
definition and since only one principal building would
otherwise be permitted on what is considered a single parcel
for zoning purposes.
Obviously, the zoning standards as applied to this property
will change if it is rezoned. If the zoning for the site is
changed to C-2, the maximum permitted building height will be
45 feet (instead of 35 feet) and front yard setbacks will no
longer be required for any commercial use. Also, there will
be no minimum lot width or minimum lot size requirement for
any commercial use.
The principal uses permitted in the C-2 District which are not
permitted in the C-l include banks, offices, restaurants,
delicatessens, printing and publishing plants, taverns and
bars, as well as those uses which are permitted in the R-5
Residence District.
Antonio Cabinetry;
The site plan approval for Antonio
Cabinetry was for the conversion of an existing 8,800 square
foot building. The applicant received the necessary area and
use variances to operate a light manufacturing use in the C-l
District. In its January 7, 1992 review of the variances, the
Westchester County Planning Board recommended;
"The Village should consider the practicality of the
proposed parking layout. The current plan appears to
have limited turnaround and aisle areas. The plan should
be reviewed to ensure that cars will not be required to
back out onto the State highway."
Recognizing the limitations of the parking design, in a
February 20, 1992 memorandum to the Village of North Tarrytown
Planning Board, our firm recommended that:
"any approvals that may be forthcoming with regard to the
cabinetry shop application [should] be conditioned upon
a requirement that the cabinet shop's parking area be reexamined whenever an application is made for the
3

�redevelopment of the remainder of the property. In this
way, at some point in the future, it may be possible to
improve upon the tight parking and circulation area shown
on this plan."
Parking; Thirteen of the parking spaces on the plan (the
compact car parking spaces) are nonconforming in terms of
size. The Zoning Code requires parking spaces to have a width
of 9 feet and a length of 20 feet. Any variation from the
Code standard to provide for compact car parking would require
an area variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals. Further,
signage should be provided which reserves these spaces for
compact cars.
Fifty parking spaces are required for this development and 50
are shown on the plan. The plan shows three of the 50 spaces
as designed for handicap parking. Only two parking spaces
need be designed for handicap use of the first 50 spaces
required. The extra handicap space could be replaced with a
standard parking space.
One of the two handicap loading
aisles may be removed and the two handicap spaces could share
the remaining aisle.
Circulation: The aisles in the parking area are only 20 feet
wide, which is tight for good maneuvering and circulation.
The location of the two loading spaces make it difficult, if
not impossible, for an SU-30 truck to maneuver into and out of
them.
The sight distance for the entrance and exit driveways should
meet New York State Department of Transportation standards.
Due to sight distance and other conditions, a left turn into
the southern entrance of the site may be unsafe.
Street intersections and curb cuts on both sides of Broadway
in the vicinity of the property should be shown on the plan in
order to evaluate traffic safety issues such as circulation
and conformance with the following Zoning Code standard in
Section 62-22.C:
"Entrance and exit driveways shall be located not less
than twenty-five
(25) feet from the corner of
intersection streets, measured along the street lines."
Buffers: To the east of the property is an R-4 Residence
District.
Section 62-9C(2) of the Code states that the
required 5-foot buffer strip between non-residential uses and
residential districts, "shall be in addition to any side or
rear yard measurements" (emphasis added). The plan includes
4

�the buffer within the 20 foot rear yard. To correct this, the
applicant should revise the plan to include the required
buffer or the applicant may try to obtain an area variance
from the Zoning Board of Appeals.
Landscaping:
The two proposed Sugar Maple trees shown on
North Broadway should be changed to a type of tree better
suited to survive well in urban conditions. Red and Norway
Maples are able to withstand factors such as road salting and
air pollution better than the Sugar Maple. Because of the
location of the overhead wire, it may actually be preferable
to use a smaller tree in those two locations, such as
Flowering Pear, Hawthorne, Red Bud or Amelanchier.
In
addition, the islands in which these trees will be planted
should be curbed in order to protect the trees.
To further enhance the area, the Planning Board may want to
request the addition of a tree on each side of the northerly
access drive. Although they would be in the right-of-way,
after careful review of sight distance considerations, the
trees would most likely be found acceptable by the Department
of Transportation. Another suggestion is to add a small tree
on the island which shows a light fixture toward the south of
the property, unless the tree will interfere with that
fixture.
The applicant may want to verify the availability of a Yellow
Wood in the size specified. If there is a problem, the plan
is more easily changed now than after approvals.
The Planning Board may want to consider pedestrian circulation
in this area and discuss the need for sidewalks.
Environmental Review: According to Part 617.12 of the State
Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA), the site plan and
zoning change for the subject property constitute a Type I
action.
The reasons for this determination are that the
action is located "substantially contiguous to" Philipsburg
Manor (which is listed on the National Register of Historic
Places and is also a National Historic Landmark) and the
Hudson River Shoreline Critical Environmental Area.
The
applicant has submitted a short Environmental Assessment Form.
According to SEQRA, the applicant must submit a full
Environmental Assessment Form for a Type I action.
A Type I action is required to undergo a "coordinated review"
by the Involved Agencies.
Either the Village Board of
Trustees (as the approving authority for a zone change), the
Planning Board (as the approving authority for the site plan),
5

�or the Zoning Board of Appeals (as the approving authority of
any variances) may be the Lead Agency. It is most likely that
the Board of Trustees or the Planning Board would become the
Lead Agency.
The application may require approvals from
County, State and other agencies which, although also eligible
to become the Lead Agency, usually do not declare their intent
to do so.
The applicant should list the other required
approvals on the full Environmental Assessment Form.
Referral; According to the Westchester County Administrative
Code Section 451, public hearing notices must be sent to the
Westchester County Planning Board regarding actions including
review of zoning amendments:
"when such hearing is in connection with (1) the proposed
... amendment of a zoning ordinance or the proposed
issuance of a special permit or use permit changing the
use classification of property located within such
municipality ... ••
Additionally, the New York State General Municipal Law,
Article 12-A requires the referral to the County Planning
Board of actions including review of site plans and variances
within 500 feet of any state highway (North Broadway is a
state highway).
Further Information;
To assist in its review of this
application, we recommend that the Planning Board request the
following information from the applicant:
•Survey of existing property, including topography (at
two or five foot intervals), existing retaining walls and
other structures.
•Proposed grading plan and description of erosion control
measures.
•Information to describe how the Deli will function
throughout construction (e.g., circulation and parking).
•Location of neighboring structures (and uses).
•Tax parcel lines for the subject property.

IN THE MATTER OF LAWRENCE GELLERMAN, 170 HUNTER AVENUE, NORTH

Mr. Hughes stated that there was a public hearing in October. Dr.
Gellerman is in poor health. It is very likely that at this time

conforming. The lot on which the existing residence is located
(Lot B) required side lot variances (6.2 feet exist and 10 feet is
required) . There will be conforming side lot setbacks between the
existing residence and any new residence.
Mr. Windas made a motion to close the public hearing, seconded by
Dr. Salman. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Windas made a motion that the subdivision will be a Type II

Dr. Salman made a motion to approve the subdivision, subject to the
written comments made by the Planner, seconded by Mr. Ayers.

�IN THE MATTER OP BEDFORD PARK ASSOCIATES, NORTH TARRYTOWM, MEW
YORK.
This is an update of the status of the project.
Mr. Margotta stated that Jim Galgano signed the plat. Mr. Pateman
has complied with everything. Mr. Pateman has put in the cul-desac and Joseph Gulino has made inspections.
Mr. Spencer stated that he was concerned whether driveway permits
had been issued for Webber Avenue. The permittee for the Bedford
Road driveways is Racwel Development. Mr. Margotta stated that the
developer has received curb cut approvals oh both "Bedford Road and
Webber Avenue.
Mr. Spencer stated that a deed of the property from North Tarrytown
Associates to Bedford Park Associates has been filed.
A question was raised concerning future fees.
Does the
responsibility of inspection fees fall on the buyer of vacant land
or is the developer still responsible? Mr. Spencer stated that he
would contact the developer and request payment of estimated
inspection fees of $500.00 per lot before any lot is conveyed to a
buyer. Discussion ensued.
The subdivision plat is filed. Notes are made on the plat of
vacant land to reference the resolutions approved and adopted by
the Planning Board. Mr. Margotta stated that a copy of the plat
will be given to whomever applies for a building permit.

Re:

Bedford Park Development

Dear Bob:
I am in receipt of your letter dated January 26, 1993
regarding items which appear to be open regarding the Bedford Park
Development and respond as follows:
•

1. Enclosed please find copies of the permits issued by
the N.Y.S. Dept of Transportation for the driveways on Bedford Road
and the County of Westchester Department of Public Works for the
driveways on Webber Avenue. The permits cannot be transferred to
Bedford Park Associates as they must be issued to the contractor
who will be doing the actual construction work.
Racwel
Construction Inc. will be doing the actual construction work in
this case.
Racwel Construction Inc. is also owned by Frank
Racanelli, President of Bedford Park Associates, Inc.
2.
Enclosed please find a letter stating that the
applicant has made the offers contained in conditions 10 through 13
of the Final Resolution and will abide by those offers.
3.
With regard to paragraph 3 of your letter, we
currently have an escrow amount of $5,000.00 on deposit with the
Village designated for inspection fees. All inspections required
by the site plan and subdivision approval have been completed and
we believe that any further inspections would be within the
jurisdiction of the Building Inspector and would therefore be
covered by the Building Permit fee.

•

'**""ir n

�I have also asked Fichard Blancato to give you a call and
have advised him that we will withdraw the notice of claim filed
against the Village.
If you have any questions, please give us a call.

IN THE MATTER OF PHELPS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL 701 NORTH BROADWAY,
NORTH TARRYTOWN, NEW YORK
Chairman Hritz called the meeting to order and stated that this
meeting was requested by Phelps Memorial to discuss changes on
the site plan and other issues. Mr. Hritz also stated that the
Planning Board is intended to be the lead agency. Ms. Portman
stated that the circulation has been made and there have been no
responses at the present time, but thirty days have not passed.
Mr. Davidow, Senior Vice Present of Phelps Memorial stated that
the four outstanding issues have been done. A meeting was held
to walk through the site and found that some concerns had
developed with all the changes. Mr. Davidow contacted Mr. John
Slaker, ASLA, of Design Landscaping who is familiar with the
needs of this project. (Copy of Mr. Slakers recommendation in
official minutes) This recommendation included a 3 foot berm
topped by 5' -6' Norway Spruce and/or White Pine. This would be
used to protect the area with visual contact.
Mrs. Martha Bick, a resident of Sleepy Hollow Manor stated that
the distance between the trees were too close. The trees would
end up dying. She believes that the plan is not good. Where the
parking lot is located, the headlights shine into her windows.
Mr. Richard Weiss also a resident of Sleepy Hollow Manor stated
that the parking lot is an extra addition as a result of the new
construction.
Mr. Todd Jack of Phelps Memorial Hospital stated that the office
building if* on an 8-5PM schedule. He will try to rectify every
problem concerning the new construction.

�Mr. Weiss stated that as for the location of fence, it would be
fine if it was moved somewhere else as long as the residents dot
not suffer from the headlights at 5:00 PM. Sleepy Hollow Manor
would be impacted.
Mr. Salman stated that this lot should be closed a certain
portion of the day and a tall fence should be put in at the south
side of the exit so that the lights would not shine into Sleepy
Hollow Manor.
Mr. Bick stated
could be put up
disease -through
cheaper and more

that she would prefer trees and that a fence
while they grow in.
Mr. Salman stated that
Evergreen trees is popular, a fence may be
secure.

Mr. Donovan stated that White Pines grow faster and berm is
higher than the headlights.
Dr. Salman also suggested box wood hedges. Mr. Weiss stated that
the foliage has to be maintained.
Dr. Salman asked who would
determine if a tree is dead.
Open spots would need to be
replaced.
A fence is more practicle and it would be less
maintenance.
Mr. Caetano suggested a double slide wood fence.
this fence is used on the Taconic parkway.

An example of

Mr. Windas stated that the residents side needs to be resolved.
The site plan should show berm, proposed trees and ideas
concerning the fence so that a compromise is made.
Mr. Todd Jack explained that area A, (the parking on the west
side) betm and tress in the area may be sufficient.
Area C
cannot be rectified do to a grading problem. A fence may or may
not solve the problem.
Area B is the compost site for the
leaves. This would have to be looked into.
Mr. Hritz stated that area A is acceptable. Areas D and C need
to be looked at. The plan is relatively indifferent.
Mr. Gulino stated that a parking analysis was performed and it is
more than adequate. The sewage plan will be submitted to the
Board at the next meeting. Mr. Gulino is awaiting a response
from I.B.M.
Ms. Portman reviewed her comment with the Board and stated that
the dimension issue on the drawing will be addressed and the
handicap issue has been done. (Review comments in official
minutes).

�The Board decided to meet with Mr. Davidow and Mr. Jack on
Sunday, November 7, 1993 at 9:00 AM to walk through the site
before any final decisions are made.
Being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM
*W&gt;urpose:

The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project
or action may be significant The question of whether an action ma\ be significant is not always easy to answer Frequently, there are aspects of a proiect that are subjective or unmeasureable It is also understood that those who determine
significance ma\ have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technicall\ expert in environmental
analysis In addition. man\ who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting
the question of significance
The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination
process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of information t o fit a project or action.

Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts.
Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site By identifying basic project
data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3.
Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides
guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentiallylarge impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced.
Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the
impact is actually important

DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE-Type 1 and Unlisted Actions
Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project:

r£L

Part 1

^

Part 2

DPart 3

Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting
information, and considering both the magitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the
ead agency that.
D

A

The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not
have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared.

G

B. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant
effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required,
therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.*

D

C The project may result in one or-more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact
on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared.
* A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions

Reiponsibilit) ol lead Agenc&gt;
'General Information (Read Carefull\)
• In completing the form the reviewer should be guided b\ the question Have m&gt; responses and determinations been .'
reasonable? The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst
f
Identifying that an impact will be potential large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant.
An\ large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance Identifying an impact in column 2 simplv,
asks that it be looked at further

•

f

• The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer b\ showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of
magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2 The examples are generalK applicable throughout the State and
for most situations But, for any specific project or site other examples and or lower thresholds may be appropriate
for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3
•.The impacts of each project, on each site, in each locality, will vary Therefore, the examples are illustrative and
have been offered as guidance They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question
• The number of examples per question does not indicate the importance of each question
• In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumlative effects
Instructions (Read carefully)
a Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be an&gt; impact

r

b Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers
c If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column 1 or 2) to indicate the potential size of the
impact If impact threshold equals or exceeds an&gt; example provided, check column 2 If impact will occur but threshold
is lower than example, check column 1

f
!

d If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3
e If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by change!*) in the project to a small to moderate
impact, also check the Yes box in column 3 A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible This
must be explained in Part 3

IMPACT ON LAND

SEQR

FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM
rpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project
or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasureable. It is also understood that those who determine
significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technically expert in environmental
analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting
the question of significance.
The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination
process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action.
Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts:

[
I

Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic projtct
data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3.

[

Part 2: 'Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides
guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentiallylarge impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced.
Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the
impact is actually important.

Part 2

DPart 3

^ B U p o n review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting
^^information, and considering both the magitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the
lead agency that:
09

A. The project will not result in any large and important impacts) and, therefore, is one which will not
have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared.

D

B. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant
effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required,
therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.*

•

C. The project may result in oneor-more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact
on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared.
* A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions

Part 2-PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE

t

|

Responsibility of Lead Agency
General Information (Read Carefully)
-• In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by t. " question: Have my responses and determinations been .
&gt;*?sonable? The reviewer is not expected to be an expert envi ^nmental analyst.
£
&lt;0£ntifying that an impact will be potentially large (column z) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant.
I
Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in column 2 .simply |
asks that it be looked at further.
• The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of
magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State and
for most situations. But, for any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate
for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3.
•.The impacts of each project, on each site, in each locality, will vary. Therefore, the examples are illustrative and
have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question.
• The number of examples per question does not indicate the importance of each question.

•

• In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumlative effects.
Instructions (Read carefully)
a. Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact.

I

b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers.

I

-

c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column 1 or 2) to indicate the potential size of the
impact. If impact threshold equals or exceeds any example provided, check column 2. If impact will occur but threshold I
is lower than example, check column 1.
|
d. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3.
e. If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by changes) in the project to a small to moderate
impact, also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible. This
must be explained in Part 3.

If Any Action in Part 2 Is Identified as a Potential Large Impact or
If You Cannot Determine the Magnitude of Impact, Proceed to Part 3

Part 3-EVALUATION OF THE IMPORTANCE OF IMPACTS
Responsibility of Lead Agency
Part 3 must be prepared if one or more impact(s) is considered to be potentially large, even if the impact(s) may be
mitigated.
Instructions
" "
Discuss the following for each impact identified in Column 2 of Part 2:
1. Briefly describe the impact.
2. Describe (if applicable) how the impact could be mitigated or reduced to a small to moderate impact by project change(s).
3. Based on the information available, decide if it is reasonable to conclude that this impact is important.
To answer the question of importance, consider:
• The probability of the impact occurring
• The duration of the impact
• Its irreversibility, including permanently lost resources of value
• Whether the impact can or will be controlled
• The regional consequence of the impact
•
• Its potential divergence from local needs and goals
• Whether known objections to the project relate to this impact.

REVIEW COMMENTS
1.

Amended Site Plan - The Applicant proposes to have 98
fewer parking spaces on the site than were proposed in
the approved site plan.
The proposed medical office
building has been reduced in size and height as noted
above. The building has also been moved approximately 10
feet to the west. The existing MRI building and its
improvements have been added to the site plan. Some of
the parking spaces previously proposed near the speech
center have been removed and spaces have been added to
the northeast parking lot. A new parking lot has been
proposed approximately 50 feet to the northwest of the
proposed building and approximately 100 feet to the
southwest of the James House, which will have one point
of access and 62 parking spaces. The parking spaces
previously proposed to the northeast of the medical
office building (near the connector to the Hospital) have
been removed. The 10 existing parallel parking spaces
opposite the main entrance to the Hospital appear to have
been removed. The parking in front of the Hospital has
been changed to angle parking as opposed to the 90-degree
parking which was previously approved. The emergency
room drop-off area has been enlarged, made more square in
shape, redesigned to eliminate the planted island and
seven parking spaces have been added. A large tree to
the south of the James House will apparently be preserved
through the construction of a retaining wall. This will
result in the loss of at least six of the previously
approved parking spaces.
The location of the proposed west parking lot will cause
the removal of some of the vegetation which may currently
assist in blocking the view of the Hospital facility from
the Hudson River. However, combined with the reduction
in height of the building, this minimal removal of
vegetation should not significantly impact any views of
the property from the Hudson River shoreline. Also, the
proposed parking area is at least 500 feet from the
nearest residence. The newly proposed west parking lot
will be more convenient to the medical office building
than was the previously proposed parking located near the
speech center.
Many of the parking islands throughout the site have been
changed in shape from what was previously approved. Some
of the proposed shapes appear to be more similar to the
shape of the existing islands rather than what was
approved. For example, the island at the main entrance

2

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation

to the Hospital has been reduced in size and the island
at the emergency room drop-off area has been removed.
The shapes approved in the previous application were
superior to the existing islands as they better aided
traffic circulation.
These islands should be made
consistent with those previously approved, where
possible.
A review of the amended site plan shows that many of the
parking aisles measure less than 22 feet wide. In some
cases the aisles actually measure 18 feet and in one
instance, at the entrance to the James House, a few
parking spaces would only have an aisle which measures
approximately 12 feet in width. Parking aisles less than
22 feet wide will create problems for motorists entering
and exiting individual parking spaces. Therefore, the
plan should be modified to reflect a standard 22-foot
wide aisle with a perpendicular parking space that
measures 9 x 20 feet.
The site plan has been amended to reduce the number of
parking spaces in the speech center parking area. It is
our recommendation that "dead end" parking aisles not be
built and that circulation be provided between aisles to
eliminate vehicles backing up or turning around within
aisles. Also, in the speech center area and the parking
lot opposite the north-south roadway, the parking islands
have been relocated and are now offset. Although this
may be more aesthetically pleasing, it is our opinion
that the aisles should be aligned to improve traffic flow
between parking areas.
By the speech center, where curb parking has been
provided, the parking spaces measure 9 x 18 feet and
should be 9 x 22 feet. An 18-foot parking space will be
too tight and motorists will tend to take up "two parking
spaces for one vehicle.
The proposed new west parking lot is a long dead end lot
which, in our opinion, should be avoided. The Applicant
should study the feasibility of connecting this parking
lot back into an existing parking area to create better
circulation.
The revised amended site plan should include adequate
information to show where each proposed directional sign
will be placed and a detailed description of each sign
should be provided. For example, the type and size of
sign as well as its height should be provided for review.

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation

Between the Environmental Assessment Form (EAF) and the
proposed amended campus site plan, it is difficult to
understand the number of parking spaces to be added.
Question B.f on the EAF states that there are 688
existing spaces and 178 will be added for a total of 876
spaces.
That actually adds up to 866 spaces.
The
amended site plan states that 188 spaces are proposed to
be added for a total of 876. Our count of the parking
added up to 886 spaces as opposed to either 876 or 866
spaces (not including the three-service vehicle parking
spaces). Similarly, we counted 806 spaces as opposed to
the 796 spaces stated on the plan under "total hospital
parking."
Although the parking summary on the amended site plan
states that there are 35 spaces at the child care center,
it appears that there is only enough space for 21 or 22
spaces.
On the plan, the reference to "City" should be changed to
"Village."
2.

Lighting and Landscaping - The Applicant
should
distinguish between the existing and proposed trees and
shrubs and mark any proposed plantings on the plan. The
Applicant should provide information regarding the
number, type and size of the plantings. We suggest that
plantings be added to the islands and recommend that the
Applicant locates any such plantings carefully so as not
to block sight distances. In addition, the Applicant
should provide diversity in planting.
Lighting should be coordinated with the existing and
proposed planting.
The light from the existing pole
light which is being relocated to the parking area to the
north will be blocked by the tree next to it." Also, the
new pole shown below the word "center" in speech center
should be relocated closer to the proposed parking area.

3.

Environmental Assessment Form - We have a few comments
concerning the EAF (see enclosed). Question A. 19 was
revised, since the property is located within the Hudson
River shoreline critical environmental area. Question
B.l.g., regarding maximum number of vehicle trips per
hour, was not answered by the Applicant. However, since
the proposed site plan calls for a reduction in the size
of the building and the previously approved plan received
a negative declaration, it is not likely that a
significant traffic impact will result. Question B.f was

discussed above. Question C.7, regarding adjacent land
uses, was revised to add "park" and to add the R-l and R2A residential zoning districts. Under Section E, we
assume that the date is October 10, 1993, not 1991.
4.

Environmental Review - The application is a Type I action
under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) .
We recommend that the Planning Board declare its intent
to be the Lead Agency and circulate a notice of its
intent to the recommended circulation list provided
below. Following the 30-day circulation period, assuming
no involved agency objects, the Planning Board may
declare itself the Lead Agency in the review of this
matter. Based upon our review of the EAF, there do not
appear to be any significant environmental impacts that
should result from this proposal. Unless new information
surfaces during the circulation period which indicates
otherwise, we would recommend that, after the Planning
Board becomes the Lead Agency, the Board makes a Negative
Declaration determination of non-significance of the
potential impacts.

III. Conclusion
The most important issues at this time appear to be parking and
traffic circulation. It is recommended that the Applicant modify
the amended site plan to incorporate the comments noted above. The
plan should show wider travel lanes and parking areas and
sufficient information with regard to directional sign location and
type. The plans should incorporate, where appropriate, STOP signs
and any other directional signs. These signs must conform to the
New York State Department of Transportation Manual of Uniform
Traffic Control Devices.

SEQF

FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM
Purpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a projec
or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer Frequent
ly. there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasureable It is also understood that those who determine
significance may Have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technical expert in environmenta
analysis In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting
the question of significance.
The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination
process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action
Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts:
Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site By identifying basic project
data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3.
Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides
guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentiall\large impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced.
Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the
impact is actually important.

DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE-Type 1 and Unlisted Actions
Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project:

Part 1

JQ

Part 2

OPart 3

Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting
information, and considering both the magitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the
lead agency that:
D

A The project will not result in any large and important impacKs) and, therefore, is one which will not
have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared.

O

B. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant
effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required,
therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.*

•

C. The project may result in one or-more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact
on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared.
* A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions

General Information (Read Carefully)
• In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by the question Have my responses and determinations beer
reasonable? The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst
• Identifying that an impact will be potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant.
Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in column 2 simpK
asks that it be looked at further.
• The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold o:
magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State arte
for most situations. But, for any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate
for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3.
•.The impacts of each project on each site, in each locality, will vary. Therefore, the examples are illustrative anc
have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question
• The number of examples per question does not indicate the importance of each question.
• In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumlative effects.
Instructions (Read carefully)
a. Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact.
b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers.
c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column 1 or 2) to indicate the potential size of the
impact. If impact threshold equals or exceeds any example provided, check column 2. If impact will occur but threshold
is lower than example, check column 1.
d. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3
e. If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by changes) in the project to a small to moderate
impact, also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible. This
must be explained in Part 3.

3 feet.
Construction of paved parking area for 1,000 or more vehicles.
Construction on land where bedrock is exposed or generally within
3 feet of existing ground surface.
Construction that will continue for more than 1 year or involve more
than one phase or stage.

Subject:

Ruivo Site Plan and Subdivision Review

As requested, we have reviewed the application of Mr. and Mrs.
Arlindo Ruivo for site plan and subdivision approval for a proposed
two-lot subdivision of a 14,000 square foot parcel, with the tax
designation Section 16, Block 12, Lot 2, located on North
Washington Street at the northwest corner of Depeyster Street in
the R-5 Residence District.
The Applicant has submitted the
following subdivision and site plan prepared by Samuel F. Vieira,
R.A. :
"Proposed Sub-division For: Mr. and Mrs. Arlindo Ruivo, 39
Depeyster St., N. Tarrytown, NY," dated 9/7/93.
REVIEW COMMENTS
1.

Proposed Subdivision: The Applicant proposes to subdivide the
property into two lots, one to be approximately 5,800 square
feet and the other to be 8,100 square feet in size. The
property contains a three-story, three-family residence which
will remain on the larger lot.
The plan generally satisfies the requirements of a preliminary
subdivision plat, although certain information, such as the
names of adjoining property owners, is not provided. Also,
the area map is not to scale.

2.

Proposed Site Plan:
On the smaller lot, the Applicant
proposes the construction of a two and a half story, threefamily residence with three outdoor parking spaces and three
garage spaces. The Applicant also proposes to provide six
parking spaces on the larger lot for the existing residence.

3.

Zoning:
The Applicant received an area variance from the
Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) for the rear yard of the larger
lot. The plan generally complies with the Zoning Code of the

North

Tarrytown,

except

in

this

4.

Parking:
As shown on the plan, the size and number of
proposed parking spaces are consistent with the Zoning Code.
At the Planning Board meeting in September, the Applicant
questioned whether the Planning Board would want the Applicant
to provide the six proposed parking spaces on the larger lot.
The Applicant stated that the spaces are being added to serve
the needs of the residents of the property. Through the use
of landscaping, the parking area could be sufficiently
screened from the neighboring properties. Although on-street
parking is allowed in the area surrounding the site, there are
some restrictions as to permitted days and times. Still, in
order to reduce the amount of pavement and retain some of the
green space on the property, if the Board agrees with the
reduction of the number of spaces, it may request that certain
spaces be "landbanked" and shown on the plan with dashed lines
and designated as "future parking."
If at any time the
property owner or the Planning Board found that these spaces
were needed to serve the residents of the property, the spaces
would be paved in accordance with the approved layout. If the
spaces are landbanked, we recommend landbanking not more than
three of the spaces on the larger lot (specifically, PI, P2
and P3 - unless one of the other spaces contains the existing
tree). If the spaces are not landbanked, we recommend the
driveway be widened to not more than 20 feet.

5.

Buffers and Landscaping: The plan shows a solid hedge along
a portion of Washington Street to buffer the proposed on-site
parking. It is not clear whether this is an existing hedge or
a new hedge. It should be noted that a fence is not shown
within the buffer area.
It is the Planning Board's
prerogative to require a fence if the Board determines that a
fence is necessary for screening the parking area. Depending
on the type of hedge and its location, the Planning Board may
find that a hedge is sufficient for screening purposes. If
any of the parking is landbanked, it may be possible to save
the existing tree which is located on the Washington Street
side of the larger lot, near proposed spaces 3 and 4. The
landscaped area in the southeastern corner of the larger lot
should not contain plantings which may affect sight distance
from the street. A sight triangle measuring approximately 18
feet north and 18 feet west from that corner should be
maintained.
Regarding the fence that is shown along the rear lot line of
the smaller lot, the fence should be located on the inner side
of a five-foot wide buffer area, as required in Section 622

�FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC.
Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation

14D(2). This buffer area is not shown on the plan and should
be added.
The location of the existing trees near the
proposed parking area on the smaller lot should be shown on
the plan so it is clear whether the trees are on the property
and are to be removed or whether action can be taken to
safeguard and preserve these trees.
The Applicant should provide information concerning the type,
size and number of plantings to be added on the site.
Also, lighting for both parking areas should be provided in
accordance with Section 62-14D(5) and the Applicant should
affirm that the lighting will not cause a glare onto
neighboring properties.
6.

Environmental Review:
The Applicant submitted a full
Environmental Assessment Form (see attached).
We have
corrected a few of the items in Part 1, including questions
A.19, B.l(g), B.l(h), B.23, C.l and C.9.
The Planning Board should declare itself the Lead Agency in
the review of this Type I action.
As no significant
environmental impacts have been identified, we recommend that
the Board make a Negative Declaration.

State Environmental Quality Review

SEQR

FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM
Purpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a. project
or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy t o answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are subjective or unmeasureable. It is also understood that those who determine
significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technically expert in environmental
analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting
the question of significance.
The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination
process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action.
Full EAF Components: The i u l l EAF is comprised of three parts:
Part 1 : Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic projt ct
data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3.
Part 2: 'focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides
guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentiallylarge impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced.
Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the
impact is actually important.

A. The project will not result in any large and important impacts) and, therefore, is one which w i l l not
have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared.

D

B. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant
effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required,
therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.*

C. The project may result in one or-more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact
on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared.

�Part 2—PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE
Responsibility of Lead Agency
General Information (Read Carefully)
•• in completing the form the reviewer should be guided by ti r question: Have my responses and determinations been^
t&gt;?sonable? The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst.
£

»

ro^ntifying that an impact will be potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant,
Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in column 2 .simply
asks that it be looked at further.
• The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of
magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State and
for most situations. But, for any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate
for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3.
•„The impacts of each project, on each site, in each locality, will vary. Therefore, the examples are illustrative and
have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question.
• The number of examples per question does not indicate the importance of each question.
• In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumlative effects.

Instructions (Read carefully)
a. Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact.
T
b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers.
I
c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column 1 or 2) to indicate the potential size of the
impact. If impact threshold equals or exceeds any example provided, check column 2, If impact will occur but threshold
is lower than example, check column 1.
d. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3.
e. If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by changes) in the project to a small to moderate
impact, also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible. This
must be explained in Part 3.
