Respectfully submitted, Irene Amato Acting Clerk �*Y > f tft'" Robert and Julia Anello 114 Merlin Avenue Sleepy Hollow, New York 10591 Architectural Review Board Sleepy Hollow, New York (0? April 22,1997 Re: Fence, Devries Avenue Dear Board Members; We are happy that the ARB is reviewing this backyard fence and disappointed that we cannot attend the meeting this evening. We do not mind a fence in general but this particular one has two problems: 1. It is ugly. It looks like a fort. 2. Although it is very tall, it cannot contain the American Pit Bull Dog who belongs to one of the three unrelated tenants who rent the house. This dog is able to jump over this fence at will, and has on many occasions come to my back door despite the fence. Since this large fence is not tall enough to contain the dog, his owner currently ties up the dog when he is left outside. This can be done with or without a fence. We would be glad to work with the current owners on a more attractive fence design. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

At the first meeting there was concern and dtscvis«iicn whether to restore the brick. Mr. Turnquist stated that the owner wants to stucco the building. Mr. Margotta stated that he will not issue building permits on a piecemeal basis for this project and reminded Mr. Turnquist that he was to have provided a full set of drawings for the repairs. Mr. Turnquist stated that this was to be done in phases, the first being exploratory work and a floor and loadbearing wall were replaced. Mr. Margotta stated that was for safety purposes. The second was for structural repairs; the third was for new stairs as a means of egress; and the last phase for apartments. Mr. Margotta again stated that he wanted a full set of drawings for the whole building. Mr. Falasca stated that he wanted to see not just face drawings, but full drawings for the front and side of the building. �Mr. Tumquist requested that he be able to come back next month with drawings for the front, side and facade of the building, as part of the facade improvement program. Mr. Nazemetz reminded Mr. Tumquist that July 13 was the deadline for turning in drawings to the Board. Mr. Falasca moved, seconded by Mr. McCarthy, to continue the matter until next month. Carried. 4. 107 Devries Avenue - Continued. Mr. Fitzgerald represented the owners of 107 Devries Avenue. Mr. Fitzgerald stated that there is a five foot fence around the back of 107 Devries Avenue. He stated that he had observed upwards of 70 fences in Philipse Manor, of various types, including stockade fences, and had several photos he wished to have made as part of the application. He stated that since the fence had already been erected and since it was in keeping with the fences in Philipse Manor, it should be approved. Mr. Falasca moved, seconded by Mr. McCarthy, to open the meeting for public comments. Carried. Mr. Frank Bateman, a neighbor, stated that he was aesthetically opposed to the fence. He stated that there is a question of a survey; that the fence was jagged; not aesthetic. He stated that there were several pickets that were broken. He also stated that a dog is chained to a tree on the property line, and believed that the owners had shown a lack of respect by putting up this fence without going through the correct process. Ms. Joanne Becker, a neighbor, stated that she had followed all the regulations, had applied for zoning variances, gone before the tree commission and followed the public process. She stated that the contractor-owner of this property just did as he pleased without trying to build a consensus with the neighborhood and put up.an.ugly, fence, without following the public process. Mr. Bateman stated that neither the issue of variances or the tree ivtnoval permit had been addressed. Mr. Fitzgerald stated that there were no irregularities in the fence. He stated that there were some repairs to be made. Mr. Fitzgerald acknowledged that there had been no prior approval and that the owners did not do what was proper, but the issue, as he saw it, was whether the fence as it stands was 'approvable'. Mr. Fitzgerald also stated that there was no building permit, but pointed to the photos stating that the fence was in no way detrimental. As to the survey, he stated the property was surveyed upon purchase of the property by the corporation. Mr. Nazemetz moved, seconded by Mr. McCarthy, to close the meeting to public �comments. Carried. Ms. Fin#stated that the craftsmanship was careless, it was terrible, and it was designed poorly. The application did not go through the process - it was a done deal. She stated that a neighborhood gives and takes, and everything is considered in the process. This fence and the way it was done is completely unacceptable. Ms. Piomelli stated that the issue was not just the Code as interpreted by the consumer, and that is why there is an arbitration process. She stated that there is also an aesthetic concern which could not be addressed by the Code Book. Her opinion of the fence is that the construction is deplorable, there was no design involved, no attempt was made to make this fence gracious in any way, and that she could not approve this as it was done. Mr. McCarthy made suggestions to make this approvable by having the applicant do the following: correct the jagged top so that it meets the bottom properly; fix the pickets; where the fence meets the tree to step the fence back so that it stays on the client's property, and stain the fence gray or brown. Mr. Fitzgerald stated that lowering the fence to the lowest point on the property and scribing the fence to follow the property would mean a two foot drop or more, since the lowest point of the property is in the front, which would make this a three foot fence in the back. Making this a very low fence in the back and the way this fence was put up in sections, and the ground slopes in the front to the back. The fence has already weathered and is starting to look gray. Mr. Fitzgerald said he* could not recommend moving the fence back around the tree as it may cause the client title problems in the future. Mr. Nazemetz read into the record a letter from Robert and Julie Anello, which letter is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Mr. Nazemetz made a motion? to approve »s submitted and built. .There wereJio seconds, Mr. Barstow stated that he believed that if the application had been properly submitted on drawings that the Board would not have been opposed to a stockade fence. The issue is not that this is a stockade fence, but there is an issue of workmanship. This fence could have been built better. It is a little haphazard. It could have been done better around the tree. The good side of the fence does nice the neighbors and they did not have to do that. Ms. Fin^stated that the Fremont fence, a white fence, was too high and had to be brought down and they put some shrubbery in front of it to disguise the "whiteness". The wrong thing was done and changes were made to make it better. Ms. Piomelli asked why couldn't the owner hire a professional to see what could be done to make this better. �MJ. rin^made a motion to deny the application, seconded by Mj$ NazemcLz. Carried. Mr. Margotta will send a 30-day notice to 107 Devries Corporation. MINUTES Mr. Nazemetz moved to approve the minutes of the meeting held on May 27,1998, by those members present. Ms. Aloia seconded. Motion carried. Mr. Nazemetz moved to approve the minutes of the field meeting held on June 2,1998. Ms. Aloi^Jseconded. Motion carried.

Graca. 139-143 New Broadway Maria Graca presented her application for approval to build a unilock retaining wall about 8 ft. high, 40 ft. long and 30 ft. return and a 42 in. high galvanized high chain link fence. Mr. McCarthy asks Ms. Graca to present the certified mailings. The applicant did not have certified mailings with her. Chairman McCarthy indicates that the Board has the plans from Ms. Graca's engineer which shows where the wall is proposed and Mr. McCarthy asks if the plans have been approved by the Village Engineer. Ms. Graca responds that she has been to the Planning Board. The Architectural Board has concerns about the aesthetics of the wall and how high it will be and asks about the color of the wall. Ms. Graca indicates the wall will be beige and presents the board pictures of the wall. Mr. Falasca moved to open the meeting for public comments, seconded by Mr. Barstow. Motion carried. At this time a resident who's property abuts Ms. Graca's property asks several questions regarding drainage considerations and the slope of property. �July 28, 1999 2 The adjacent property owner does not feel an 8 ft. high wall will suffice and understands a fence will be built on top of the wall but has concerns about the drainage. She asks about the statute of limitations on building this retaining wall and feels the project is taking too long. Ms. Graca states she was advised to build a retaining wall which will provide better accessibility to the building and emphasizes there is adequate drainage. Chairman McCarthy asks Ms. Graca that after she gets approval from the Architectural Review Board and applies for a building permit how soon after will she be prepared to build the wall. Ms. Graca intents to build the wall as soon as possible, citing that the building permit expires after one year. Mr. McCarthy advises the neighboring property owner to inform the building department if this becomes a dangerous hazard to her property and her neighbors. There was some discussion about the soil that has not been removed. Mario DeFelice, Board of Trustees informs the Board a note, "to stop all work" was left at the site of applicant's property. Ms. Graca indicates to Mr. McCarthy that she has a contractor for this project. There is some discussion on the height of the wall. Mr. McCarthy indicates that according to the drawings the wall will be higher than 8 ft. The topograhy map shows an 80.6 elevation at the southern most point and at the top of wall will be 89.5. There was still concern from the public regarding drainage and the time span for this project. Mr. McCarthy also indicates concern with the danger of an unsafe site. There was some discussion on the discrepancy with the height of the wall between 7 ft. maximum and 8.6 ft. The public expressed their approval of an 8 ft. wall. Attorney Lammers indicates the Architectural Review Board determines �July 28, 1 999 3 the aesthetics of the property and suggests any decision made by the Architectural Board would be subject to a decision by the Mayor and Board of Trustees. The drainage concerns will be addressed with the Village Engineer. The applicant indicates that at this time she does not have a building permit which is a concern to the public. After comment from the public regarding the absence of the certified mailings by the applicant, Attorney Lammers indicates any decision by the Architectural Review Board will rest on the submission of the proper certified mailings by the applicant. If proper mailings were not sent, the Board will not authorize the Building Inspector to issue a building permit There being no further public comments, Mr. Falasca moves to close the meeting to public comments, seconded by Mrs. Fiina. Motion carried. Motion by Mr. Falasca to adjourn until Ms. Graca returns with certified mailings, seconded by Ms. Fina. Motion carried. 2. Julio Zhingri. 290 N.

Motion seconded by Ms. Fina. Motion carried. 4. Anthony & Kimberly Zuzzolo. 6 Fremont Road. Sleepy Hollow Manor (continued) Application for the construction of a new module house. Mr. McCarthy reports that the application is a continuation of last month's meeting. The applicant had to return with some details on the porch, windows, and garage doors. Mr. Zuzzolo indicates that the house will be white and the shutters black. The windows will be trimmed with 4 in. trim board on the bottom and sides, 6 in. on top with solid crown molding. Mr. Zuzzolo will return the ends of the crown. Garage doors will be changed to the side of house with two windows in front. The front windows will be revised with a picture window without shutters.

Mr. Zuzzolo indicates to Mr. McCarthy that these are all the revisions. Mr. Falasca motions to open meeting for public comments, seconded by Ms. Fina. Motion carried. �July 28, 1999 5 There being no public comments, Mr. Falasca moves to close meeting to public comments, seconded by Ms. Fina. Motion carried. Ms. Fina makes a recommendation that the second story window should have some sort of decoration. Mr. Zuzzolo responds that he did not like the appearance of a vent and has contemplated different sizes and shapes. To the homeowners personal opinion it did not fit. Mr. Zuzzolo did not like the prefabricated sunburst but possibily would make one from the siding. Many of these sunbursts are smooth grain but with wood siding will stand out. The grain on the siding and the grain on the prefabricated sunburst is a noticeable difference. The picture window will be one piece and arched. Mr. Falasca wants a scale of the windows. Mr. McCarthy motions to approve the resubmission of 6 Fremont Road including a revised entrance portico subject to a revised front portico window. Seconded by Mr. Falasca. Motion carried. 5 Shippy Realty (Miguel Jiminez). 196 Cortlandt St. (continued) Mr. Jiminez, at a previous meeting, presented an application to renovate building by removing existing clapboard (vinyl) siding and stucco walls with new shutters, lights and awnings, (drawing prepared by Turuquist Architects, 95 Beekman Ave., Sleepy Hollow). Mr. Jiminez states that at the previous meeting the Board is concerned about what is under the siding and the windows. (At this point Mr. Jiminez shows the Board some photos of the building) The applicant's intention is to take the siding off and stucco the building and add shutters. The colors would be light green stucco with dark green on the corners of the building. Ms. Fina has concern about the contrast of the green stucco of the building and the trim and asks about the surrounding buildings. Mr. Jiminez says that several surrrounding buildings are stucco. Mr. McCarthy asks Mr. Jiminez if he investigated what was the building's original siding. The Board feels the building was originally shingle and did not want another stucco building. Mr. McCarthy wants the character of the building restored as part of the waterfront redevelopment. Mr. Jiminez states that in the past the building has never been repaired. July 28, 1999 6 �Mr. Falasca asks about the two different fire escapes and Mr. McCarthy did not want the cornice to be covered up like the Castle Restaurant. Mr. McCarthy referred, in part, to the Revitalized Plan; "When rehabiliting commerical buildings the integity of the original design should be respected and whenever possible the original materials should be used". Ms. Fina asks Mr. Jiminez what is the differential between stucco and clapboard in which Mr. Jiminez indicates a 75% increase. The applicant would take off the old stucco and add new stucco on the building. Architect Ron Turuquist indicates that this building could not be built today because of the type of construction. The applicant is ready to go with the energy efficient insulation and the stucco. Mr. Jiminez adds that the building has renovated hallways, fire proof sheet rock and has the sprinkler system set up. Ms. Fina moves to open the meeting for public comments, seconded by Mr. Falasca. Motion carried. Mr. McCarthy asks what color would be used for the building. Ms. Fina comments that the color is important and does not want every building in town to look the same. The architect indicates there isn't much that can be done with the building besides stucco or aluminum/vinyl siding. Mr. Jiminez can not afford cedar shakes. Ms. Fina again expresses her concern with the color green and at this point Mr. Jiminez says another color would be agreeable to him. Mr. Falasca moves to close the meeting to public comments, seconded by Ms. Fina. Motion carried. Mr. Falasca asks about the present condition of the stucco. Mr. Jiminez indicates that the stucco is too heavy, cracked and very dirty. The Board feels in several years the replaced stucco will crack and get dirty because of the building's busy location. Mr. Falasca feels that because the applicant will use synthetic stucco it will not withstand the abuse. Mr. Jiminez states the base is a mix of glue and cement which will make it more durable. The windows will not be replaced this year, only painted. Mr. Barstow asks Mr. Jiminez what he will do with the detail on the top of the building. Mr. Jiminez responds that he will paint it. The Board has some discussion on the original material underneath the aluminum siding and requests that it be researched. Mr. Barstow likes the original photo but �July 28, 1999 7 because of code concerns does not think it is practical. He agrees with the stucco but not the color green and has concern regarding the details on the top of the building. Mr. Falasca will not vote for a green building. Ms. Fina will favor a stucco building but not the color green. She prefers colonial colors in keeping with the historical theme of the town. The Board is told by the architect that Mr. Jiminez must finish the stucco work and negotiate the awnings and spend the money for the awnings by September 14th. Mr. Falasco feels the building should be white with a blue, maroon or green trim. Ms. Fina feels white will be hard to keep clean. Mr. Barstow indicates that half of the lineation of the sketch is not spelled out. The Board asks several questions about signage on the awnings. At the previous meeting the Board requested Mr. Jiminez to return with photos showing the condition of the material underneath the aluminum. Mr. McCarthy feels the aluminum siding should be removed to investigate the material underneath. Replacing the structure with colonial vinyl siding or original cedar siding will cost less or as much as stucco. Using these materials will restore the village back to its historical character. At this point a lengthy discussion incurred between the applicant and the Board regarding the multi colors used in the village and the hispanic heritage now living in Sleepy Hollow. Ms. Fina makes a motion to approve this application with the following notations, seconded by Mr. Falasca. Motion carried. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
