Architectural Review Approval- Public hearing- Public hearing
Jonathan Merheb, an engineer from JMER Engineering P.C., representing the property owner.
Mr. Merheb stated that the revised plan includes eliminating the curb cut on Pocantico Street,
adding a raised sidewalk and curb, redirecting downspouts, adding cultech detention systems in
the rear parking area to capture water runoff, adding building mounted lighting, adding a
landscape buffer between the adjacent building, and a curb planting bed on North Broadway. He
will address vehicle maneuverability concerns by eliminating (1) parking spot near the trash
enclosure while still providing (9) spaces where (8) are required. He will revise the proposed
trash enclosure from chain link to vinyl. Mr. Merheb stated the proposed fiberglass planters
would not serve as a vehicle buffer and because there are gas tanks in that location, they cannot
set anything in a footing. The only option would be to remove the seating and move the planters
up to the sidewalk.
Rachelle Gebler moved to open the public hearing.

proposed seating area.

staff to draft a resolution.

4. KWD Realty LLC, 309-315 North Broadway, Proposed 4-story self-storage facility
Site Plan &amp; Architectural Review Approval- Discussion
Karl Dibble is the property owner and developer of the project. Mr. Dibble stated that his
attorney and architect could not attend the meeting. Mr. Dibble described the changes made to
the site plan, including the proposed setbacks, grade changes, and building height. Mr. Dibble
provided examples of neighboring buildings that do not provide landscaped sidewalk buffers.
Mr. Dibble stated that shrinking the size of the building is not financially feasible due to the high
material costs. Mr. Dibble presented the renderings and described the views from different
village areas. Mr. Dibble requested that the Planning Board recommend the application to the
Zoning Board for review of the requested variances for lot coverage and height.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Dibble to describe the purpose for the curb cut going up the hill
and asked if he could streamline the access off Route 9
Mr. Dibble stated that the curb cut would be used for access during the building's construction.
After they finish, that entrance could be used by a van or by Westerly Storage to store and rent
out vans as a service of the storage facility. The self-storage use would decrease the amount of
traffic off Route 9.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Dibble for the proposed hours of operation.
Mr. Dibble stated that the self-storage facility would operate during normal business hours and
that gates would be installed at all three access points.
David Smith stated that the curb cuts are subject to the approval of the Department of
Transportation (“DOT”). He suggested that when the Planning Board is ready to schedule a
public hearing, the application should be forwarded to the New York State DOT for review.
4

(2/20/25)

�Chairperson Krakauer stated that Mr. Dibble considered moving the tower feature. Since the
proposed building is over the allowable height and coverage requirements, the Board would like
to compare a building in compliance with what a building in compliance would look like on the
site and neighboring property renderings.
Mr. Dibble described how the property slopes affect the ability to meet the compliance
requirements in some areas.
Chris Camia suggested eliminating the top floor and pushing the square footage into the
setbacks.
Mr. Dibble requested a referral to the Zoning Board of Appeals to receive feedback from the
Board and the public before making any additional changes.
Chairperson Krakauer requested that Mr. Dibble prepare renderings for comparison purposes that
incorporate their suggestions regarding the height and coverage requirements.
No action was taken.

8. 50 on Hudson Street LLC, 50 Hudson Street, Proposed three-family residence, Site Plan
Proposed three-family residence, Site Plan &amp; Architectural Review Approval
Brian Hopkins is the owner and the architect of the property. Mr. Hopkins summarized his
experience, including two completed projects on 34 and 46 Hudson Street. The application
proposes constructing a three-unit building where the top unit is a duplex. The recorded
easement with 48 Hudson Street allows both properties to have on-site parking spaces. The
proposed application will require variances for the front and side yard setbacks and building
coverage. Mr. Hopkins presented a neighboring lot coverage analysis, site photographs, and
described the views from the other houses on Hudson Street, and a rendering depicting the scale
of the proposed building maintaining the street line. He presented the site plan and landscaping
plan. He said that he would ensure all plantings are native species. The garbage and recycling
collection would be in the rear yard and include bicycle racks. The application proposes (3)
parking spaces where the residents would be required to back out of the driveway. He proposes
installing a 5-foot high fence around the property's perimeter, including an operable fence and
gate on the right side for the owner of 48 Hudson Street.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Hopkins if parking configurations could enable vehicles to turn
around. Ms. Krakauer asked Sean McCarthy if tandem parking is permitted to provide more
parking spaces.
Mr. Hopkins stated that he has investigated all vehicle maneuverability options.
Mr. McCarthy stated that the tandem parking could be permitted depending on the relationship
of the parking spaces to the unit.
Mr. Hopkins described the proposed wood building façade and fencing materials, windows,
decking, railings, and lighting. He presented the unit layout plans including the decks and
6

�interior renderings. He presented a side-by-side bulk comparison between 46 and 50 Hudson
Street. He presented a study of land use zoning and parking availability for the surrounding area.
He described the intention to use the panelized system to construct a building with high R-values
and performance. He plans to use heat pump technology for heating and cooling.
Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the Board.
David Smith requested that Mr. Hopkins submit a copy of the recorded easement agreement with
48 Hudson Street and the parking analysis.
Rachelle Gebler stated that the building's architectural style is excessively dissimilar to others on
Hudson Street and requested that the design be more in line with the street. She suggested that
Mr. Hopkins consider a gable roof design to reduce the building's visual bulk and height.
Mr. Hopkins said he addressed the height concerns by stepping back into the building.
Jay Schulz asked Mr. Hopkins if there would be storage under the stairs to the second level.
Mr. Hopkins stated that the room under the stairs would be the utility room.
Sean McCarthy stated that this is a model preliminary application for applicants and that the
quality of the proposed work is above what the Board has been seeing.
Mr. Shulz stated he is concerned about backing out of the driveway and asked if there are
examples where this occurs safely.
Mr. Hopkins stated that 46 Hudson has the same parking configuration
Sean McCarthy suggested the Board consider referring the application to the Zoning Board of
Appeals for the April meeting and allow the applicant to present updated material at the March
Planning Board meeting.
Mr. Camia asked Mr. Hopkins to compare the non-conforming conditions of the existing
structure with the self-created variances he will be requesting.
Mr. Hopkins stated that the existing structure is over the property line at the side and front yard
setbacks. Although he is seeking variances for the setbacks and coverage, the new structure
would improve these setbacks. The existing two-family residence includes one parking space,
whereas the proposed three-family residence proposes (3) parking spaces, where (6) spaces are
required by code.
The Planning Board referred the application to the Zoning Board of Appeals and adjourned it to
the March 20, 2025, Planning Board meeting to discuss architectural review concerns.

Building, Architectural Review Approval- Preliminary Presentation
Peter Chavkin stated that he is a managing partner of Sun Homes and that they have contracted
Appel Design Group Architects for the project balance.
Matthew Martinque is an architect with Appeal Design Group representing the applicant. Mr.
Martinque stated that the building is four stories tall and has four units. He summarized the floor
plans for the 20-foot wide interior units and exterior building materials, and stated that the
rooftop condensers would include screening. He presented renderings of views from the
alleyway between the two buildings and stated that there is 24 feet between the buildings. An
additional architectural feature at the north elevation is unnecessary, as the corner would be well
landscaped. Solid entry doors are proposed with unit numbers that would include downlights.
Mr. Chavkin stated that glass windows are proposed on the sides of doors in the 28-foot wide
units not included in this building.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Martinque to describe the landscaping at the north corner.

style and floor plan to the buildings at 332-338 Legend Drive and 340-350 Legend Drive. This
building includes two 28-foot-wide end units with a sidelight at the entrance door. Mr. Martinque
presented a rendering and stated that two brick colors are proposed for the building units.

interior units.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the buildings on Legend Drive include 22-foot wide end and 20-foot
wide interior units.
Chairperson Krakauer polled the Board members for their comments regarding the articulation of
the brick colors
The Board agreed to be comfortable with the exterior design and brick colors.
Peter Chavkin requested that the resolution language for the fourth-floor penthouses and end
units be the same for the three buildings and not include the language for the high-visibility end
units.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Peter Chavkin if rooftop pergolas are proposed for the two
buildings on Legend Drive or the building on Hollows Pass.
Peter Chavkin stated that rooftop pergolas are not proposed on the three buildings.

13. Lighthouse Landing Communities, LLC, Edge-on-Hudson Riverfront Development,
Phase II- Waterfront Open Space- North Buffer- Amended Site Plan &amp; Wetlands
Watercourse Permit Approval- Preliminary Presentation
Peter Chavkin stated that he is from Biddle Real Estate Ventures, representing Lighthouse
Landing Communities, LLC, and is requesting amended site plan approval for the North Buffer
area of the Phase II Waterfront Open Space. Mr. Chavkin stated that they should change the
name to the North Meadow. The Board previously approved the North Buffer and the third leg of
Tappan Zee Park. A condition of the approval required them to determine if flood surveys would
allow them to raise the grade of the North Buffer. The studies determined that the flood levels at
the maximum water elevation flooding are a foot lower than the maximum the overall site could
accommodate, where no residences would be flooded. The amended plan includes raising the
bottom of the channel approximately 2 feet. No changes have been proposed for the approved
pathways and depressed areas. This area will serve as infrastructure and open space.
Chris Camia asked Mr. Chavkin to describe the emergency access area.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the emergency access area was approved as a grassed pathway with a
rubberized system underneath. The pathway will serve as a permanent pedestrian connection and
emergency vehicle service connection.

�Questions related to the vehicle weight that the path could support and whether there would be
signage indicating its emergency use.
Mr. Chavkin said he would confirm with the engineers and provide information to the Planning
Board.
There was a discussion regarding an Intermunicpal Agreement with Westchester County related
to the operations and maintenance of Kingsland Point Park, whether or not the fence and
concrete that border the park entrance from the North Buffer should be removed or remain, and
suggestions for keeping a part of the original foundation.
Mr. Chavkin requested that the Board approve preparing a draft resolution for the next meeting.
Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the Board and the consultants and polled the
Board on their approval to prepare a draft resolution.
There were no additional comments or objections from the Board.
Chairperson Krakauer directed David Smith to prepare a draft resolution for review at the March
20, 2025 meeting, including language for keeping a part of the original foundation.

Re: Cortlandt Development LLC Application for 377 North Broadway
February 20, 2025
Dear Chairperson Krakauer,
Historic Hudson Valley (“HHV”) is a not-for-profit cultural organization that owns and operates several National
Historic Landmarks, including Philipsburg Manor at 381 North Broadway in Sleepy Hollow. The Manor also serves
as a Visitor Center for visitors to Kykuit, the Rockefeller Estate, also a National Historic Landmark in Sleepy Hollow.
HHV provides significant positive economic impact for Sleepy Hollow and its businesses as it welcomes tens of
thousands of visitors each year at Philipsburg Manor through educational programs, tours of two historic sites,
and popular events.
We have reviewed the application for the property at 377 North Broadway, just across Pocantico Street from
Philipsburg Manor. We welcome this project. If it is completed with sufficient attention paid to architectural
character and site planning enhancements, we believe the final result has the potential to improve the
appearance of the existing property and be an enhancement to our neighborhood overall.
The site is currently a sea of asphalt and concrete surfaces. Landscaping along its Pocantico Street frontage, even
freestanding planters that are well maintained, would be an aesthetic improvement and provide a visual buffer
for the proposed parking area. We ask the Planning Board to require this as part of any approval granted. Our
chief concern is the provision of adequate on-site parking for the proposed uses (deli with seating/market/gas
station). We notice that there appears to be a discrepancy between the area proposed to be outdoor seating in
the color renderings submitted in comparison with the site plan, with the former depicting a much larger area
that projects all the way out from the garage bay facade to meet the stone facade of the southern portion of the
existing building. On the site plan, a much narrower area is depicted as the proposed outdoor seating area.
The size of the seating area and whether the proposed use is intended as “grab and go” or “sit and eat” has
significant implications for our property. If customers are dining in, there will be slow turnover of the limited
parking on site, creating the potential for deli customers to attempt to use the Philipsburg Manor parking lot
instead of the site’s own parking.
In addition to this discrepancy, we have not been able to identify how the off-street parking requirement from
Section 450-41.E of the Village Zoning Law is being applied to the proposed use, and what size outdoor dining
area, with what number of seats, was used as part of that calculation.

�Based on the multiple activities proposed for the site, it can also be expected that more vehicular and pedestrian
activity will be generated than in the past. What area on the site is proposed to be used for unloading deliveries to
the building and the underground gasoline storage tanks? How can the Planning Board ensure that these
deliveries will not block access to the proposed parking spaces and, in so doing, increase the possibility that
customers will not find sufficient parking on-site and begin to search for parking elsewhere, such as on the nearby
Philipsburg Manor parking lot?
Until these variables, and the applicable math to set the required number of on-site parking spaces, are made
clear in the application, we respectfully request that the Planning Board hold open this Public Hearing so that we
can react to this aspect of a clarified application.
As you know, parking is at a premium in the Village, and Philipsburg Manor needs every one of its parking lot’s
spaces available to support its own business uses. Should the Planning Board grant an approval for this project,
HHV asks that it include measures and stipulations that preclude the possibility that the Manor’s parking lot will
be used by customers of the business at 377 North Broadway.
We believe this project has the potential to improve the aesthetics of a property in direct view of Phillipsburg
Manor, and to add a desirable amenity. We ask that the Board pay careful attention to its parking requirements
and insist in any approval that the applicant take all necessary measures to mitigate any adverse parking impact
on its neighbor.
Best regards,

Waddell Stillman, President

Rob Schweitzer, Vice President, Communications &amp; Commerce

I, Jorge Berenguer, as the owner o f All Fleet Services, located at 357 N. Broadway,
Sleepy Hollow, a gas station and deli less than 200 feet from the proposed request by Cortland

2. 16 Hudson Street Realty, 16 Hudson Street, Proposed parking area, Site Plan Approval
-Public Hearing
Sam Vieira stated that he is the project architect. The project engineers didn’t complete the
stormwater prevention and site work designs. Mr. Vieira stated that a section of the retaining
wall along the property line was removed. The applicant intends to store the garbage behind the
gate and fencing, and it will be brought to the curb for village pick up or handled by a private
carting company. The applicant will maintain a 3-foot clearance around the fire hydrant. The
existing curb on the northwest side will be replaced with a standard curb and sidewalk, and a
new sidewalk will be extended to the southern border. Mr. Vieira said that the applicant is
concerned about creating a sidewalk with a utility pole, guy wire, and traffic sign on the right-ofway and at the interruption on the southern side of the right-of-way. Mr. Vieira stated that the
applicant proposes to use a steel frame screen with 6-foot-high horizontal synthetic decking
material for the fence and gate. The retaining wall is proposed to be 6 feet tall at its highest point
with a 42-inch high guardrail.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Vieira how the gate would operate.
Mr. Vieira stated that the double gate will swing inward to the rear of the site. He asked the
Board to consider eliminating the request for the additional landscaped area along the sidewalk
and curb cut, as the owner is seeking enough flat area to move customer cars.
Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the Board.

(1/16/25)

�Chris Camia suggested that the Board further discuss solutions for the sidewalks and the existing
obstructions.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the Board feels the sidewalks are a priority for pedestrian
safety.
Chris Camia moved to open the public hearing.
Moved: Camia
Seconded: Gross

Vote 5-0

Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the public.
Christopher Diaz stated that his father owns 20 Hudson Street. Mr. Diaz asked Mr. Vieira to
describe the plan for the space between the properties if the retaining wall would be an
obstruction, and how long it would take to complete the project.
Mr. Vieira stated that the applicant's property line is approximately 3 feet from the 20 Hudson
Street building. The retaining wall is proposed 12 feet from the house and will be at grade with
guardrails on top. Landscape screening is proposed as per the Board’s suggestion. The project
shouldn’t take more than a couple of months to complete.
Mr. Vieira asked the Board to confirm directions relating to the sidewalk.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the Board would like to see a curve in the sidewalk.
Mr. Vieira said the applicant agrees to build and maintain the sidewalk.
There was a discussion regarding the proposed sidewalk location.
Aniello Ricchiuti stated that he is the property owner and would appreciate the village getting
ConEdison to move the pole.
Mr. Vieira asked Chairperson Krakauer where the Board stands on the additional landscaped
areas at the parking area.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the landscaped area would create a buffer between the sidewalk
and the internal turning area.
Mr. Ricchuiti stated that adding a landscaped area would restrict the area he has to store and turn
larger vehicles.
Rachelle Gebler moved to continue the public hearing to the February 20, 2025, meeting.

3. Cortlandt Development, LLC, 377 North Broadway, Proposed deli/market, Site Plan &amp;
Architectural Review Approval- Public hearing- requested adjournment

(1/16/25)

�Chairperson Krakauer stated that the applicant requested an adjournment to the February 20,
2025 meeting.
4. KWD Realty LLC, 309-315 North Broadway, Proposed 4-story self-storage facility
Site Plan &amp; Architectural Review Approval- Presentation
Mark Constantine stated that he is an attorney representing the Applicant. Mr. Constantine stated
that revisions have been made to address some of the comments received from the Planning
Board. He requested that the process be continued and stated that the proposed storage facility
would complement the transit-oriented high-density development the Village is fostering.
Bruno Pietrosanti is the architect representing the owner, Mr. Karl Dibble. Mr. Pietrosanti stated
that although they didn’t reduce the proposed lot coverage and building mass, visual techniques
were added to reduce the visual appearance of the building by setting part of the building back 5
feet. The height of the tower element was reduced but still requires a variance. Diagrams were
submitted to show vehicle maneuverability and sight lines from the upper loading area and lower
parking area. Renderings will be completed for the next meeting to show views from the south.
Iron safety railings are proposed on the front retaining walls. The loading area will be screened
from the street by a gate, fencing, and landscaping. The interior loading area walls were set back
10 feet into the property. The sliding gate style will not intrude on the village right-of-way. Mr.
Pietrosanti said they will complete the landscape and drainage plans after the Zoning Board of
Appeals renders decisions for the requested variances. He requested that the Planning Board
refer the application to the Zoning Board of Appeals. Mr. Pietrosanti stated that the roof area was
reduced by 3,000 square feet and summarized the façade material specifications.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Pietrosanti to summarize the requested variances.
Mr. Pietrosanti stated that the variance requests for building height and lot coverage have not
changed.
Mr. Constantine stated that the applicant seeks to maintain the proposed square footage to be
economically viable. The proposed facility will have very little impact on municipal services.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the Board requested that they work to design a project that fits
more within the zoning code requirements without excessive variances for height and coverage.
The Planning Board is not reviewing the proposed use. She requested that comparisons to
adjacent buildings be submitted and diagrams showing where the building would be over the
height requirements.
Rachelle Gebler and Ken Anderson agree that the proposed massing and coverage remain a
concern.
Mr. Constantine stated that the proposed height of the facility would not cause a significant
visual impact and requested a referral to the Zoning Board of Appeals to address the concerns.
Sean McCarthy suggested that the proposed loading area could be utilized for storage facility
square footage and eliminate the need for a height variance. He suggested the applicant consider
4

(1/16/25)

�combining the loading and parking areas and eliminating one curb cut to provide one entrance
point.
Mr. Pietrosanti stated that the loading area requires 14 feet height for box truck access.
Mr. McCarthy stated that providing 14 feet of height would work well on the lower side of the
property.
Karl Dibble is the owner of the property. He stated that the loading area would be well screened
from the road. As a business strategy, he would prefer to keep the office and customer parking
separate from the loading area. Comparisons to the adjacent mechanical buildings built in the
1920s are irrelevant to his project. Mr. Dibble stated that site work is difficult on the property
and that the proposed storage facility would meet the needs of a high-density development.
Richard Gross asked why the open space from the initial proposal was replaced with the tower
element. Mr. Gross asked Mr. McCarthy for the permitted coverage percentage.
Mr. McCarthy said the applicant proposes 83.7% coverage, where 60% is permitted.
Mr. Petrosanti stated that the original proposal with the drive-through café complied with the lot
coverage. Eliminating the drive-through café resulted in the request for more square footage so
that the storage facility would be economically feasible.
Mr. Dibble requested a referral to the Zoning Board of Appeals.
Chairperson Krakauer requested that the applicant consider the Board’s comments and
suggestions regarding excessive height and coverage for the next meeting.
No action was taken.
5. Lighthouse Landing Communties, LLC, Edge-on-Hudson Riverfront Development,
Phase III –Waterfront Open Space, Site Plan &amp; Wetlands Watercourse Permit
Approval – Discussion
Chairperson Krakauer stated there is no new information to discuss.
6. One Kingsland Owner, LLC, Edge-on-Hudson Riverfront Development, 405 Legend
Drive, Block N- Amended Site Plan &amp; ARB Approval- Preliminary presentation
Peter Chavkin stated he is a Managing Member of One Kingsland Owner LLC. Mr. Chavkin
stated that sales efforts were initially expected to be made from the clubhouse building. Based
on the timing of the construction of the building versus when he expects the offering plan to be
approved at the Attorney General’s office to begin sales, he is requesting to install a temporary
trailer adjacent to the amenity complex parking lot. Mr. Chavkin presented the Block N approved
Site Plan and stated that the temporary sales trailer would be located behind the curb of the
parking lot with construction fencing surrounding a smaller temporary parking area for sales
operations expected to start in April.
5

(1/16/25)

�Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the Board and the consultants.
There were no questions from the Board.
David Smith asked if they plan on using the existing Toll Brothers trailer.
Mr. Chavkin said they plan to relocate the Toll Brothers construction trailer from the south
parcel.
Chris Camia asked Mr. Chavkin to describe how the sales trailer would be decorated.
Mr. Chavkin stated that this is the facility from which they intend to sell 90 townhomes. Plans
will be submitted to the Building Department detailing the exterior and interior renovations
needed for a sales office with landscaping.
James Natarelli asked how long the trailer would be on site.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the draft resolution stipulates a condition related to issuing Certificates
of Occupancy. He estimates that the trailer would be on site for three years.
Jay Schulz asked Mr. Chavkin to confirm that the site would conform to the approved site plan
after the trailer is removed.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the parking lot serves two purposes: parking for the amenity building
and parking for the townhouse units that do not have a driveway, as required by the Zoning Code
for a third parking space. There is a difference between what the market and the zoning code
require.
Chris Camia asked Mr. Chavkin to confirm that the sales trailer won't impede access to the
amenity building.
Mr. Chavkin stated that having the sales trailer will give residents access to the clubhouse sooner
than how it was approved in the site plan.
Mr. Natarelli asked Mr. Chavkin to confirm where the water and sewer utilities will come into
the trailer and how they will tie into the street and asked if the owners of the sales trailer and the
amenities building be separate.
Mr. Chavkin detailed the plan, including where temporary water and sewer connections are
proposed and where they will tie into the street. Mr. Chavkin stated they do not intend to create
public water and sewer mains, and will work around the ownership implications.
Chairperson Krakauer asked David Smith to read the draft resolution.
David Smith read the conditions of the draft resolution.

7. Marathon Development Group LTD, 100 College Avenue, Proposed 105-unit
mixed-use development, Subdivision, Special Permit, and Site Plan ApprovalPreliminary presentation
Brian Sinsabaugh stated that he is an attorney with Zarin &amp; Steinmetz on behalf of the applicant,
Marathon Development Group LTD. Mr. Sinsabaugh stated the property is also known as
College Arms, is adjacent to the Reverend Sykes Park, and is 2.36 acres in the R-6 zoning
district. There is an existing 10-story building with 164 affordable housing units and an on-grade
parking lot with 154 parking spaces. The application proposes constructing a 6-story building
over the existing parking area with 200 parking spaces, ground-level retail and 4 stories of
affordable housing with 105 units. A subdivision is proposed to divide the property into two
parcels and a lot line adjustment that would give the Reverend Sykes Park additional space. The
applicant also requests a Zoning map amendment petition relating to the Stategic Property
Redevelopment Area Floating Zone and Special Permit approval which will define new
requirements for off-street parking, front yard setback, and increased building coverage. Mr.
Sinsabaugh requested that the SEQRA review process be initiated with the Planning Board as the
Lead Agency so a notice of intent may be circulated. As requested by the Village Planner, an
updated Environmental Assessment Form and a signed Coastal Assessment Form were emailed.
A comprehensive response to the Village Planners’s review memo will be submitted before the
next meeting.
Mark Soja stated that Marathon Development Group is an affordable housing developer in
Westchester County. Mr. Soja stated that in the 16 years they have owned 100 College Avenue,
there has been little turnover, no vacancies, and a waiting list for units. The Floating Zone would
allow them to add 105 residential apartments, including 65 one-bedroom units, 32 two-bedroom
units, and 8 three-bedroom units, that would remain affordable for at least 30 years.
Edmund Vogel is the project architect from Warshauer Mellusi Warshauer Architects, P.C. Mr.
Vogel stated that the proposed six-story building includes four stories of residential above two
stories of the parking structure. Mr. Vogel described the building's architectural features and
façade designs. Mr. Vogel stated that an elevated plaza on the second story is proposed to
provide green space and amenities for the tenants. Mr. Vogel presented views from the public
streets into the site and stated that the existing parking lot is underutilized. Mr. Vogel presented
unit floor plans and provided the square footage for one, two, and three-bedroom units.
Brian Riley stated that he is the civil engineer from Catizone Engineering, P.C. Mr. Riley
described the site's existing conditions. The lot with the existing building is 47,000 square feet,
7

�and the proposed development lot 2 is 57,000 square feet. He described the existing and
proposed easement areas and stated that 11,000 square feet, or 20% of the development lot two,
is proposed to be given to the park. The existing driveway, two-way entrance, and curb cut on
Valley Street are proposed to remain. A second curb cut is proposed on Valley Street to access
the lower-level parking. An exit-only driveway is proposed on Cortlandt Street. Mr. Riley
described where utility connections are proposed and stated that the existing drainage culvert
would need to be re-routed around the southeast corner of the proposed building. The current
parking lot drains into the culvert and terminates at the Hudson River. The stormwater
management plan includes providing water quality treatment units. Mr. Riley described that the
landscape plan focuses on the third-floor amenity deck space and includes the small area along
Valley Street frontage. The easement area south of the building was left as a grass area. He will
ensure that the landscape plan includes native plantings.
Mr. Sinsabaugh stated that the applicant is seeking subdivision and site plan approval from the
Planning Board and Board of Trustees to approve the proposed zoning map amendment and
Strategic Property Redevelopment Floating Zone and Special Permit. The Local Development
Corporation is involved in having a leaseholder or ownership stake within the property as part of
the SPR. All submissions will be shared between the boards involved.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the Board requires a complete application before circulating a
Notice of Intent.
Mr. Sinsabaugh stated that he received a memo stating the application was complete.
Sean McCarthy said he would review the application and determine if it is complete before the
next meeting.
Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the Board.
Richard Gross asked Mr. Sinsabaugh what was planned for the existing vehicle parking during
the development construction and how they intended to handle the flooding in the parking garage
on Valley Street.
Mr. Sinsabaugh stated that a parking plan detailing the timing of the construction and where
existing tenants' vehicles will be relocated will be submitted.
Mr. Riley stated that the proposed development and expanded easement area will reduce the
impervious surface. Although the area is in a 100-year storm flood zone, FEMA does not provide
a base flood elevation map, so mitigation is unclear. The lower level of parking is above the
grade of Valley Street.
Peter Catizone is the engineer from Catizone Engineering, P.C. Mr. Catizone stated that the
lower parking level is in a flood zone and is designed to accept flood waters in and out. Reducing
impervious surfaces, improving stormwater, and installing a green roof will decrease runoff.
Chris Camia stated that there are issues with parking availability on Cortlandt and Valley Street.
He requested that the applicant prepare a parking analysis that details the proposed retail square

�footage, calculations for the required number of parking spaces under the existing Zoning Code,
and the expectations for the reduction in the required parking re-zoning request. The application
proposes 200 parking spaces between the two buildings, where approximately 430 parking
spaces would be required under the existing zoning code and approximately 322 spaces at 75%
of that value per the floating zone. Mr. Camia asked if the proposed grass area easement would
affect the park infrastructure.
Mr. Riley stated that the proposed relocation of the drainage culvert would require removing the
park restrooms and the swing set. The swingset can be replaced in the same location, but
replacing the restrooms requires further discussion.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the bathrooms should be replaced. She requested that the
applicant provide an analysis of how it was determined that the existing parking lot is
underutilized. She asked if parking spaces were designated for each unit.
Mr. Sinsabaugh stated that based on current ownership and experience with the existing building,
they determined that the parking is not always utilized and that affordable housing units tend not
to have multiple vehicles per unit. They will provide a detailed parking study. The plans include
.75 parking spaces per unit, where the zoning code requires one space per dwelling unit and a
half space per bedroom.
Mr. Camia asked if residents are charged additional fees per parking space and if public parking
spaces are required for the proposed retail space.
Sean McCarthy stated that there are public parking requirements for retail spaces.
Mr. Sinsabaugh stated that residential parking spaces will not be charged an additional fee. The
application proposes approximately 2,500 square feet of retail, requiring up to 13 public parking
spaces.
Rachelle Gebler requested plans be made to relocate the restrooms instead of eliminating them
and suggested they provide temporary services during construction. She asked how the parking
space would be configured and how traffic in the surrounding intersections would be impacted
by the new building.
Chairperson Krakauer suggested that the applicant consider alternative options for the building
design and easement area regarding setbacks and views from the park and the train station. She
also suggested that they consider relocating the bathrooms to an area of the building that is
accessible from the outside.
Richard Gross asked Mr. Catizone how they plan on handling flood waters where the elevation is
close to sea level.
Mr. Catizone stated that they expect the lower level to accept flood waters, recede, and flow out
by gravity. They do not want to fill it or eliminate flood storage volume. They have completed
other developments designed to flood parking lots. FEMA regulations require that habitable
spaces be provided 2 feet above the flood zone.

(1/16/25)

�Mr. Gross suggested that the Village Engineer and Building Inspector review the plans
There was discussion regarding an existing “Pilot,” the payment in lieu of taxes agreement with
the Local Development Corp, and how a portion of the park is located in Tarrytown.
James Natarelli, Mr. Riley, and Mr. Castizone discussed the proposed stormwater practices and
how they comply with the New York State DEC stormwater retention requirements and the
Board’s policy, which requires that all runoff volume be retained on the property in a 100-year
storm event. Mr. Natarelli suggested that the applicant consider additional stormwater mitigation
practices.
There was a discussion regarding where the portion of the Reverend Skyes Park is located in the
Village of Tarrytown.
David Smith described how the notice of intent would establish the Planning Board as the lead
agency to initiate the SEQR review process and coordinate with the involved agencies, which
have the authority to review and make decisions on the proposed development.
No action was taken.
8. Lighthouse Landing Communities, LLC, 2 Lighthouse Landing, Proposed pergolas,
Special Permit- Discussion
Rachelle Gebler asked if the Board of Trustees directed the Planning Board to provide
suggestions for the proposal.
Josh Subin stated that the Board of Trustees requests input from the Planning Board and a
referral back to them.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Peter Chavkin to summarize the request.
Peter Chavkin stated that requests were received for shade structures on the four Daymark
Building units with large rooftop terraces. Pergolas are considered part of the building structure
and must comply with the building height requirements. The Village Board can grant a height
variance in exchange for an incentive. They proposed to set aside 15 parking spaces in the south
parcel parking lot for the residents along Hudson Street to park in the evening hours until the
parcel is developed.
Ms. Gebler asked Mr. Subin if the Board of Trustees is leaning towards allowing the pergolas
and requesting feedback from the Planning Board.
Mr. Subin stated that the Board of Trustees is interested in approving the agreement and is
asking for the Planning Board’s input regarding the architectural review of the pergolas and
whether they conform to the Board’s requirements.

10

(1/16/25)

�Chairperson Krakauer requested that Mr. Chavkin confirm that the proposed pergolas conform
with the Board’s definition and restrictions on coverage and openness.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the proposed pergolas would be open on four sides with non-operable
louvers, with no intentions for additional screening. They would be approximately 10 feet high
by 12 feet long, 20 to 24 feet wide, and will cover less than 50 percent of the rooftop terrace
area.
Ms. Gebler recommended that the Board of Trustees treat this as a one-off approval for pergolas
that haven't already been designed and approved with the buildings. She suggested that the Board
of Trustees look at the number of parking spots being offered on Hudson Street and make sure
they are adequate. Since the pergolas are permanent structures, she suggested that the Board of
Trustees make the parking spots available in perpetuity.
There was a discussion on the visibility of the proposed pergolas.
David Smith stated that a portion of the parking on the south parcel is designated for the
Bridgeview Tavern under the agreement. David Smith asked Mr. Chavkin if parking spaces
would be marked with signed as Village Permit Parking.
Mr. Chavkin said there is a license agreement with the Bridgeview Tavern for customers to park
on the south parcel during the day. He requested that the Village Board issue permits or hang
tags to residents, and they would ensure that there is no overnight towing enforcement for that
area of their property.
Chairperson Krakauer requested that David Smith prepare the Planning Board’s
recommendations to the Board of Trustees.
9. Approval of minutes, November 21, 2024, December 19, 2024 meetings

2. KWD Realty, LLC, 309-315 North Broadway, Proposed mixed-use building,
Site Plan &amp; Architectural Review Approval -Presentation
Mark Constantine stated that he is an attorney representing the Applicant. Mr. Constantine stated
that the proposed 100,000-square-foot self-storage facility in the C-1 zoning district would
supplement and complement the ongoing high-density residential development in the Village.
Mr. Constantine stated that the applicant had made changes to address concerns from the
Planning Board. Mr. Constantine stated that the current proposal requires variances. Although
the variance approvals are in the hands of the Zoning Board of Appeals, the applicant would like
to proceed with the understanding that the Planning Board is in favor of the use, concept, and
approach, and to the extent that the law tasks him in satisfying the requirements for the required
variances. He requested to proceed to the Zoning Board to make the presentation. The applicant
wants to satisfy the Planning Board regarding the benefit, viability, and overall enhancement the
self-storage facility would provide to the Village without impacting municipal services.
Benjamin Nielsen stated it is not the Board's purview to evaluate a permitted Zoning Code use of
the property or the economic viability of the proposed project. The Board evaluates how the
requested variances would impact the project's planning and architectural review components
related to site plan development, stormwater, and traffic. The variances required for lot coverage
and building height affect the architectural look of the building. The Board evaluates if the
proposed building for excessive dissimilarity to adjacent properties.
Mr. Constantine stated that the size of the building would have a significant impact on economic
viability.

(12/19/24)

�Bruno Pietrosanti is the architect representing the owner, Mr. Karl Dibble. He stated that the
comments received from the Village Architect related to vehicle maneuverability, loading area,
and landscaping will be adjusted during the site plan and engineering review. Changes were
made to improve the view of the building along the streetscape, including a tower element and
brick and precast façade materials. The proposed building mass is similar to the three and fourstory structures along Beekman Avenue and would not be noticeable from the street level due to
the property elevations. Mr. Pietrosanti requested that the Board refer the current application and
concept plan to the Zoning Board of Appeals.
There was a discussion regarding the areas of the building that require a height variance.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that no changes were made to the proposed height and massing.
Outstanding items related to vehicular maneuverability, loading dock, stormwater, landscaping,
signage, and curb cuts still need to be submitted.
Mr. Pietrosanti described the design and intentions for the loading spaces.
Mr. Nielsen said the original application proposed a mixed-use building that didn't request
additional lot coverage.
Mr. Pietrosanti said that eliminating the drive-thru café reduced the required parking calculations
but created a need for more self-storage space to offset the desired income.
Mr. Constantine stated that although including the food element would reduce the building FAR,
the applicant would need more space for queuing vehicles, which may create a traffic burden.
Adding the design elements and features results in higher building costs that will not contribute
to a return on investment for a service where people look for a safe, efficient, and economical
way to store goods. The proposed square footage is required to cover the development and
construction costs. The applicant needs to determine the building height and coverage approvals
to return to the Planning Board and address the outstanding items accordingly.
Joshua Subin stated there is a recommendation process from the Planning Board, but the
applicant may insist on going before the Zoning Board without it. The application would still
need to return to the Planning Board to review the architectural review component. Sleepy
Hollow is unique in that if the plans are determined before you go to the Zoning Board of
Appeals, the applicant will not have to worry about it coming back to the Planning Board.
Mr. Constantine stated that the Planning Board has stated that the Zoning Board grants requested
variances, yet the Board’s two main concerns relate to the proposed building height and massing.
Mr. Constantine requested a referral to the Zoning Board, as it is the law that while the items are
being discussed with the Planning Board, the decision to grant the variances is up to the Zoning
Board. The Zoning Board of Appeals may have valuable input. Regardless of the Zoning Board's
decision, they will return to the Planning Board to discuss the outstanding concerns. He asked if
the process requires the application to be at a point where the Planning Board says they would
approve the project and then go to the Zoning Board.
3

(12/19/24)

�Mr. Subin stated that the Planning Board focuses on excessive dissimilarity because it has an
ARB component that overlaps with what the Zoning Board would consider.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the Board commonly requests items for other project reviews,
including how proposed lot coverage compares with neighboring residences and commercial
facilities, streetscape views, and renderings from all sides of the structure to provide a
perspective on how the building would fit in the neighborhood's character. Ms. Krakauer
suggested that the applicant consider reducing the building height and massing to better fit in the
neighborhood.
Mr. Nielsen requested that the applicant provide the heights of the adjacent buildings, including
the Open Door building. He suggested considering architectural choices to reduce the scale of
the building's massing.
No action was taken.
3. Lighthouse Landing Communities, LLC, Edge-on-Hudson Riverfront Development,
Phase III-Waterfront Open Space- Site Plan &amp; Wetlands Watercourse Permit
Approval- Discussion, requested adjournment
The Board received a request to adjourn the application to the next scheduled Work Session.
4. 16 Hudson Street Realty, 16 Hudson Street, Proposed parking area, Site Plan
Approval – Preliminary Presentation
Sam Vieira stated that he is the Project Architect representing the owner, Aniello Ricchiuti. It
was determined that Mr. Ricchiuti owns a small piece of land that the previous owner purchased
from the Village of Sleepy Hollow, which was never included in the property survey. A Stop
Work Order was issued for work started to extend the parking areas without the required permit
approvals. Mr. Vieira presented the site plan, stated that they propose constructing a retaining
wall, and paved parking area to store customer's cars waiting for service. Although the plan
delineates three parking spaces, they should not be reviewed for required space size and
maneuverability. Landscaping screening is proposed to screen the parking area from the
neighboring house, along Hudson Street, and along the property line bordering the Village of
Tarrytown. The height of the retaining wall is proposed to be 5 feet at the highest point. He will
submit the requested railing details and ensure proper clearance at the existing fire hydrant. Mr.
Vieira requested the Board’s approval to use a 6-foot high commercial chain link fence and gate
with opaque barrier inserts to handle the repetitive business uses. Mr. Vieira asked the Board to
reconsider the request to extend the sidewalk to the curb cut due to the obstacles of the existing
utility pole, stabilizing wires, and street signage. Although the owner has retained Hudson
Engineering to provide the stormwater management calculations, he asked the Board if they
require the full engineered drawings to take action or if it could be a condition of the approval.
Chairperson Krakauer asked James Natarelli what he requires to review stormwater retention.
James Natarelli stated that the architect is asking if the Board is comfortable with the engineer
designing the stormwater calculations based on the plan presented.
4

(12/19/24)

�Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the Board.
Benjamin Nielsen asked Mr. Natarelli if the applicant should complete a percolation test.
Mr. Natarelli stated that previous applications on Hudson Street have illustrated that infiltration
would not be an issue and that he does not see an issue with getting the engineer involved now.
Ken Anderson asked if a sidewalk extension would affect the impervious surface calculations.
Mr. Vieira stated that the sidewalk extension won't impact impervious surfaces because it is on
Village property.
Mr. Natarelli stated that sidewalks are pitched toward the street, and runoff is not collected.
Mr. Nielsen stated that the landscaping should include Westchester County native species,
suggested including larger trees on the southern strip, and asked Mr. Vieria if the retaining wall
elevations have been studied for sidewalk compatibility. There should be more appealing options
than a chain-link fence.
Mr. McCarthy stated that the material used for an enclosure on Dell Street has proved to hold up
well.
Mr. Veira stated that the retaining wall is well within the property lines, and the return is being
eliminated. All landscaping is proposed on the 16 Hudson Street property. The entrance is
located at the southern property line, and larger trees would be an obstruction. Residential
fencing material may not hold up to commercial use. Mr. Veira stated that they would review the
options for using synthetic decking materials for the fence and gate.
The Board agreed that the concept plan was acceptable and that the engineer should prepare the
civil drawings.

5. Cortlandt Development LLC, 377 North Broadway, Proposed deli/market, Site
Plan &amp; Architectural Review Approval- Preliminary Presentation

5

(12/19/24)

�Jonathan Merheb stated that he is an engineer from JMER Engineering P.C. representing the
property owner. The lot is located on the corner of Pocantico Street and North Broadway,
containing a Sunoco gas station and a mechanic shop. The application proposes to convert the
building into a deli market/ convenience store. The existing gas station will remain operational
with no proposed changes. The application proposes to reorganize and delineate the parking
spaces, include a handicap parking space on the Pocantico Street side and relocate and enclose
the dumpster area to the rear of the building. Other improvements include raising the sidewalk
area in front of the garage bays and replacing the gravel transition to asphalt. Mr. Merheb
presented the site plans and renderings. The owner plans to maintain and restore the buildings’
brick and stone façades, replace the garage bays with glass doors and storefront windows, and
install a 3-foot-in-diameter sign on the roof over the middle bay. Although the interior layout is
not finalized, a kitchen, seating area, and shelving displays are proposed.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Merheb to describe the proposed rear parking lot lighting and if
there would be vehicular maneuverability issues with the spot proposed directly behind the
building.
Mr. Merheb stated that since they are proposing ten parking spaces, where eight are required,
they could remove a parking space if it poses a maneuverability issue. He will complete a
lighting plan based on requirements for building-mounted fixtures. They want to avoid
excavation for bringing conduits to poles.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the Board is concerned about the downspouts discharging
where pedestrians would be walking.
Mr. Merheb stated that he is discussing the need for adding dry wells in the rear of the building
with James Natarelli.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Merheb to describe if a landscaping plan is proposed.
Mr. Merheb stated that there is no room to add landscaping.
Chairperson Krakauer suggested using movable flowerpots to screen the seating area in front of
the building, eliminating a curb cut on Pocantico Street, and adding low shrubbery along the
front of the sidewalk.
David Smith said he would provide Mr. Merheb with the native planting suggestions.
Benjamin Nielsen suggested a decorative screen wall instead of bollards if there is no room for a
planter. He asked if moving back the parking spaces along the northeast corner would allow
room to create a landscape strip along the property line of the adjacent house. This would also
assist in reducing the impervious surface and stormwater challenges.
Mr. Natarelli agreed that since the main stormwater concern is the downspout discharging for
pedestrian safety, he agrees that pulling the parking spaces back would increase the buffer
between the rear parking spots and the property line.
6

(12/19/24)

�Mr. Nielsen asked Mr. Merheb to consider alternative fence options for the garage enclosure
instead of chain link fencing and asked how the garbage truck would enter the site.
Mr. Merheb stated that the garbage enclosure and fencing would not be visible.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the garbage truck would not enter the site and suggested Mr.
Merheb consult with the owner regarding the approach for bringing garbage to the curb.
Mr. Merheb stated that he would reconsider the size of the dumpster and discuss the enclosure
options with the owner.
Sean McCarthy asked Mr. Merheb to describe where the kitchen exhaust is proposed.
Mr. Merheb stated that the kitchen exhaust location has not been finalized.
Mr. Nielsen suggested adding a bike rack on site.

Medical Office Building

Exhibit #1

Hi SeanI am writing about the medical office.
The building height is actually taller at 57'-6 which is a 15' variance and the east facade should match the other
facades with brick as it faces the whole village. Circulation doesn't look totally figured out and it's going to be
a mess trying to get into and out of the parking area. They can easily have an entry/exit onto the road from the
parking garage. There are also many parking spaces that are shown at 8'-6" in the parking lot. Why is the
parking garage in the back? Is it municipal parking? Will the lot be open to anyone and will it cost money to
park? These questions should be answered before any variance is granted.

Re: Zoning Board of Appeals Public Hearing December 18, 2024
Dear Mr. Church,
We are writing to oppose the granting of height variances for the proposed medical office building and
parking garage across the street from our Lofts condo residence at 100 Legend Drive in Sleepy Hollow.
We understand a request has been made to increase the maximum building height from 42 to 52 feet, to
accommodate a 5-level parking garage and office building structure. We feel strongly that height
variances, especially for a parking garage, should not be allowed.
We have lived in Sleepy Hollow since 2016, and spent the past 8 years watching the Edge on Hudson
property develop from a cement wasteland to a vibrant residential community with a growing number of
activities for residents and families. We looked forward to moving into this neighborhood and purchased
a Loft unit in late 2023. We expected to buy into a suburban-like residential community with amenities
such as a grocery store, restaurants, and offices, but we were not expecting it to include a 5-level parking
garage that may not have aesthetics comparable to the rest of our community.
As new proposals come forward for plan variances, the focus seems to be moving away from home
ownership and residential appeal.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Joseph and Mary Louise Grotzinger

Sean McCarthy
Opposition to Height Variance for Medical Office Building Parking Garage - Zoning
Board Public Hearing on December 18th/19th 2024

Dear Mr. McCarthy,
I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed variance to increase the height of the parking garage for the
medical office building from 3 levels (42 feet) to 5 levels (58 feet including the mechanical penthouse).
This increase would have a significant negative impact on Loft 2 residents, particularly those with southeast-facing units,
as it would obstruct views of the Beekman streetscape and reduce the overall aesthetic harmony of our low-profile
residential area. The proposed height would make the parking garage nearly as tall as Northlight or the DeCicco tower,
which seems incompatible with the surrounding structures and detrimental to our community.
While I understand the need for a parking structure, I strongly believe that a 3-level garage is a more appropriate
solution, preserving the character of the area and minimizing the adverse effects on residents.
I urge you and the Zoning Board to carefully consider the impact of this variance and to deny the request for a 5-level
garage.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Christopher Peuler
Resident, Loft 2 unit 204

Sean McCarthy
Opposition to Medical Building’s Proposal

Dear Mr. McCarthy,
I am writing to formally express my opposition to the proposed variance to increase the height of the parking
garage for the medical office building from 3 levels (42 feet) to 5 levels (58 feet, including the mechanical
penthouse).

As a resident of Loft Building 2, which faces both Decicco’s parking lot and the proposed medical building,
we have significant concerns regarding the impact this change may have on our home and community. While
we understand the need for additional parking spaces, we believe the height increase will negatively affect both
the aesthetics of our views and the overall visual character of the surrounding area.

Furthermore, we are particularly concerned about our privacy, as our bedroom is located on the 4th floor of our
building. The proposed height increase could result in a direct line of sight into our living space, compromising
our sense of privacy.

We respectfully request that you consider these concerns as you evaluate the proposed variance. Thank you for
your time and attention to this important matter.
Sincerely,
Xin Dai

Janet Giris is a partner with the law firm DelBello Donnellan Weingarten Wise &amp; Wiederkehr,
LLP, and is presenting on behalf of the Applicant. Ms. Giris acknowledged that although the
Board opened the public hearing, it will be adjourned and re-noticed for next month. At the June
meeting, the Planning Board expressed concerns regarding the proposed parking spaces and
architecture of the medical office building and parking structure. A new architect modified the
architectural design of the medical office building and added a new parking structure with 52
parking spaces. This would provide 238 parking spaces in the structure and 426 parking spaces
on the site. Ms. Giris stated that although the height of the parking structure requires a variance,
it would not be higher than the building’s bulkhead and the DeCiccos Supermarket. Ms. Giris
stated that the Zoning Board of Appeals requested additional information, which will be
provided for the December meeting.
Chairperson Krakauer solicited comments from the public.

�Ted Lai stated that he is the owner of 102 Legend Drive. He appreciates the applicant moving of
the loading zone to the back of the building and that a variance request for parking is a
compromise.
Chairperson Krakauer adjourned the public hearing to the December 19, 2024 meeting.
4. One Kingsland Owner, LLC, 308-318 Legend Drive, Proposed (6) unit townhome
building, Amended Site Plan &amp; Architectural Review Approval - Presentation
Peter Chavkin stated that he is the Managing Partner of Sun Homes. Mr. Chavkin stated changes
have been made to address the comments from the Planning Board and the Building Department.
Changes include the removal of the planters and trees between the roof terraces on the proposed
application and the previously approved buildings. Owners will have options for individual
planter boxes. Unit designation numbers have been reduced from 8 inches to 4 inches in height.
The precast concrete lintel material was thickened above and below the windows and on top of
the door to match the brick at 3 ½ inches, and window boxes were added. Details were added to
the plans to detail the locations of the gas meters, electric meters, and vapor mitigation system
ports. Utility meters will be screened with perennial plantings to satisfy requests from the
Building Department. Signage was added for the Fire Department as required. The rooftop
mechanical equipment will be fully enclosed. He described the construction and proposed
materials for the Washington Wall separating the front yards from the sidewalk. He said the wall
would not exceed 24 inches or include horizontal seams. He presented the brick façade material
samples to show how colors would delineate the units.
Chris Camia asked if the same brick colors are proposed for all 90 townhome units and if
underground utility lines will run from the front of the building to connect the meters on the
sides of the building.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the brick colors are for this building and may differ for the buildings
facing the park. The utility lines are proposed to run around the building, not underground.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Chavkin if the design for the rooftop shade structures had been
finalized.
Mr. Chakin stated that they are not currently proposing rooftop shade structures. They do not
intend to install rooftop pergolas but may develop an idea for some retractable awnings in a
future application.
Richard Gross stated that the Fire Department Sprinkler connection signage should be indicated
correctly.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the location for the signage will be confirmed with the Building
Department during the Building Permit drawings review
David Smith asked Mr. Chavkin to confirm the roof coverage on the end units.

(11/21/24)

�Mr. Chavkin stated that they show approximately 72% coverage and the Board was previously
comfortable with a condition to allow them to increase from the required 50% coverage on the
low visibility end units.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that she is comfortable with the coverage condition and polled the
Board for their comments.
The Board members were amenable to the additional coverage condition on the end units.
Mr. Camia suggested backlighting the unit numbers for visibility.
Mr. Chavkin stated that they intend to have the unit numbers lighted.
Chairperson Krakauer requested that David Smith read the draft resolution
David Smith read the conditions of the draft resolution.
Rachelle Gebler asked if the condition regarding pergolas should be removed since it is not part
of the proposed plan.
There was a discussion regarding the applicability of some of the previously approved resolution
conditions. The Planning Board agreed that approval was based on the current site plan drawings
and agreed to keep conditions as limitation restrictions.
Richard Gross moved to approve the amended draft resolution.

5. KWD Realty, LLC, 309-315 North Broadway, Proposed mixed-use building,
Site Plan &amp; Architectural Review Approval -Presentation
Bruno Pietrosanti stated that he is the project architect representing the owner, Mr. Karl Dibble.
Changes to the application include removing the drive-through restaurant, shifting the building
within 10 feet of the property line along North Broadway, and adding planter base retaining
walls along the property line. The building structure was redesigned to step in and out to reduce
the view impacts from the street, and the parking area is proposed to be covered. An architectural
tower element and a combination of brick and precast façade materials were added. The current
plan would require variances for a front yard setback of 10 feet where 20 feet is required, a
5-foot rear yard setback variance where 20 feet is required, limited height variance for the rear
yard, and lot coverage for covering the parking area. Mr. Pietrosanti presented view renderings

(11/21/24)

�of the proposed building and stated that architectural details are open for improvements. He
plans to address the Village Engineers' stormwater comments upon approval of the concept plan.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the proposed building height and massing are viewed as
excessive and asked Mr. Pietrosanti if they could design a structure that is as of right and in
conformance with the Code and permitted uses.
Mr. Pietrosanti stated that the applicant desired 100,000 square feet to be successful, where they
would expect 60% occupancy and adequate rentable space availability. Providing the requested
architectural details and covered parking area would increase construction costs. Approval of the
requested variances would allow the applicant to address the Board’s concerns.
Chairperson Krakauer stated that the Planning Board has the authority to recommend the
application to the Zoning Board of Appeals and requested that the applicant consider a design for
that meets the allowable requirements for the intended use.
Karl Dibble, the property owner, stated that several changes have been made to the proposed
structure's aesthetics to address the Board’s request to bring the building forward and to close the
parking entranceways. Spaces are proposed with garage doors for car storage. Several variances
for bulk and height have been approved for residential structures at the Riverfront Development,
where he seeks to build a commercial building.
Joshua Subin stated that the Zoning Board of Appeals reviews applications for variance
approvals. The Planning Board can provide a positive or negative recommendation regarding the
proposed site plan. The Planning Board is expressing concerns that the site plan is too massive.
Comparisons to other Village properties, reasons why the applicant feels variances are
warranted, and what the market would tolerate for what is needed for a return on investment for
the structure should be presented to the Zoning Board of Appeals. The Zoning Board of Appeals
has the purview to make an independent determination.
Mr. Dibble provided a history of his experience obtaining Planning Board approvals for this
property and expressed how the village has discontinued utilizing his commercial and retail
services with prejudice. Without a positive referral from the Planning Board, the Zoning Board
may not approve the variance requests. The self-storage facility examples provided in David
Smith’s review were from Somers and a rural area in Pawling, New York. Examples should have
been provided to show self-storage facility designs from neighboring river towns in Westchester
County. Height variances are required to provide the step-back design for a building when the
property is situated on a hill. The current property use is approved as a general contracting yard,
recycling facility, mixed-use with residential, and a material supply yard. A self-storage facility
use would have the least impact on the school system, traffic, and the environment. If the
approved recycling business were fully operational, a line of dump trucks would be waiting on
North Broadway to get on site. A self-storage facility would greatly benefit the Village because
the residential riverfront development provides very little storage and parking capabilities for
extra vehicles.

(11/21/24)

�Mr. Subin stated it is his role to establish a good record and to avoid liability for the Village.
There has been no animosity from the Planning Board or Mr. Smith. He requested that David
Smith have the opportunity to address the comments directed at him.
David Smith stated that he agrees with Mr. Dibble concerning his comments about the
comparison with a self-storage facility in Pawling. His comments were intended to show that a
storage facility doesn’t have to look like a storage facility. Huge is a term of art. The proposed
building in its context is what the Board has to determine
Rachelle Gebler stated that the Planning Board has concerns regarding the height variance of 52
½ feet, where 35 feet is permitted, and the lot coverage of 83.7%, where 60% is permitted.
Mr. Pietrosanti stated that the building's mass has been reduced. Bringing the building forward to
the street line adds to the coverage impact with the covered parking. He asked the Board to
consider the similarity of the Open Door facility in relation to its massing and parking structure.
Sean McCarthy stated that the Board's intention was to suggest shielding the parking area from
the street view. Enclosing the area isn’t necessary.
Mr. Pietrosanti stated that they could revert to the 24-foot front setback and install landscape
screening along the 10-foot setback line to eliminate the issue of covering the parking area.
Mr. McCarthy asked Mr. Pietrosanti how increasing the setback would help with the coverage
and desire to obtain 100,000 square feet of space.
Mr. Pietrosanti said they could add square footage below grade.
Mr. McCarthy suggested that aligning the building setback with the adjacent street-line
structures would provide a more attainable variance than height or coverage.
The Planning Board suggested the applicant consider making improvements to step down the
building massing, relocate loading bays and the refuse area, and be conscious of impacts to the
residences along Lawrence Avenue.
Richard Gross asked Mr. Pietrosanti why the applicant removed the café use.
Mr. Pietrosanti stated that they determined that the café would cause further traffic impact
Mr. Camia stated that the Board suggested that the applicant evaluate the traffic impact of a
drive-through café and did not instruct the applicant to remove it.
James Natarelli requested that applicant considering stormwater management now so to be sure
that the proposed site plan could provide 100% retainage of the 100 year storm on the site based
on the new construction.

Peter Chavkin stated that he is representing Lighthouse Landing Communities, LLC and has
nothing new to present. Woodard &amp; Curran and WSP have communicated regarding questions
related to the North Buffer / North Meadow section. He attended a Board of Trustees work
session, which some Planning Board members attended. He requested to be included in the
upcoming Work Session to discuss the proposed uses of the Boat House.
A work session was held with the Board of Trustees to discuss proposed uses of the Boat House.
Mr. Chavkin said he would resubmit the operating cost study prepared for the proposed ice
skating rink options.
Chairperson Krakauer asked Mr. Chavkin if wall alternatives have been designed.
Mr. Chavkin stated that the Art Colonnade is an important park design feature. He is willing to
consider alternating its length or removing it at the Board's request. The design and material
finishes could be discussed at the upcoming work session.

Resolution #: 02/31/2025
RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE
OF SLEEPY HOLLOW IN GENERAL SUPPORT OF AND
DIRECTION TO THE TO THE SLEEPY HOLLOW LOCAL
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (THE “SHLDC”) IN
CONNECTION WITH THE EAST PARCEL REDEVELOPMENT
PROJECT (PHASE III)
WHEREAS, the Village of Sleepy Hollow, New York (the “Village”) is undertaking the
comprehensive redevelopment and adaptive reuse of the East Parcel as a municipal public
facilities and recreation complex (the “East Parcel Project”), such proposed East Parcel Project to
include buildings and infrastructure to serve the Department of Public Works of the Village of
Sleepy Hollow (the “DPW”), a bus garage and repair facility for the Union Free School District
of the Tarrytowns, public recreation and community facilities to include multi-use fields and
related improvements, and parking improvements for the Village, public and not-for-profit usage,
and related utilities and infrastructure that may include a vehicle and/or pedestrian bridge to
serve the East Parcel; and
WHEREAS, the Sleepy Hollow Local Development Corporation (the “SHLDC”) owns a
certain parcel of real estate commonly referred to as the “East Parcel” comprising approximately
28 acres identified by TMID No. 115.11-1-2, and is currently engaged in Phase II development
contemplated under the East Parcel Project; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Resolution # 12/09/2020, the SHLDC previously issued
Sleepy Hollow Local Development Corporation Tax-Exempt Revenue Bonds (Village of Sleepy
Hollow East Parcel Redevelopment Project – Phase II), Series 2020 (the “2020 Bonds”) not to
exceed aggregate principal amount of $35,000,000; and
WHEREAS, in connection with the issuance of the 2020 Bonds, the SHLDC and the
Village entered into an Amended and Restated Lease Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2020
(the “2020 Lease Agreement”), pursuant to which the SHLDC leases the Facility to the Village in
return for rent payments by the Village, subject to annual appropriation, in an amount sufficient
to pay, among other things, the principal and interest on the 2020 Bonds; and
WHEREAS, Phase II of the East Parcel Project is expected to be completed (or will be
near completion) by the summer of 2025; and
WHEREAS, in order to continue with Phase III of the East Parcel Project, additional
project funding and other undertakings will be required; and
WHEREAS, upon completion of the Phase III of the East Parcel Project, the existing
DPW facility will be redundant and, therefore, the property will be available for sale or
redevelopment; and
1

�NOW, THEREORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Trustees of the Village of
Sleepy Hollow believes it is important to provide general support and direction to the SHLDC in
connection with the East Parcel Project as follows:
i.

Prior to approval of transfer and redevelopment of the existing DPW to the SHLDC,
the Village will follow the public hearing and approval process under N-PCL 1411(d),
and will complete SEQRA review process;

ii.

Once the 1411(d) process has been completed but before the SHLDC undertakes full
marketing efforts, has identified and selected a developer, and executed an
appropriate land disposition agreement (LDA), the Village will consider approval of
an exclusive option to the SHLDC for the existing DPW property in order to allow
the SHLDC and the selected developer to pursue all zoning, planning and SEQRA
review steps for redevelopment during LDA contingency period;

iii.

Once contingencies are met, approvals secured and developer financing confirmed,
actual title transfer could occur; and

iv.

Formal approval by the Village of another SHLDC bond issuance to finance
construction of the new DPW would, by necessity, have to follow several steps by the
Village and SHLDC, including:
a.

Update design and value engineering of the new DPW facility;

b.
Update construction cost estimates for consideration by the Board
of Trustees and SHLDC;
c.
Review updated design and confirm whether existing site plan and
SEQRA review are sufficiently broad in order to proceed, or whether any redesign
would require re-opening Site Plan and/or SEQRA for the East Parcel;
d.
Engage a financial advisor and/or placement agent to assist with
financial modeling and placement of bonds to refinance existing debt and new
debt to be issued (which in turn would inform the Village regarding bond
amortizations and long term lease payment requirements);
e.
Once project is redesigned, permitted and general financing needs
understood, SHLDC would begin the bond issuance;
f.
As part of the bond issuance process, and once final principal
amounts and project scopes are completed, SHLDC would require approval by the
Board of Trustees to amend the existing lease agreement and formally approve the
final terms of bond issuance;
g.
On a parallel track with marketing, underwriting and issuing of the
bonds, SHLDC would need to procure a new design-build with Guaranteed
Maximum Price (GMP) construction contract for the new DPW, and work with
the Village to confirm what elements, if any, would be directly undertaken by the
Village as tenant, the amount of this contract (with contingency amounts) being
directly tied to the financing;

2

�h.
Once new bonds are issued and GMP executed, the construction
process would begin with an identifiable completion schedule that will inform the
Village and SHLDC as to when DPW operations can move and how that process
will dovetail with the developer LDA for sale of the existing DPW site.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Mayor and Village Administrator of the
Village are hereby authorized and directed to sign any documents and take any additional steps
necessary to effectuate the foregoing, subject to review by the Village attorney.
