2. Lighthouse Landing Communities, LLC, Edge-on-Hudson Riverfront Development, 199
Beekman Avenue, Phase III preliminary subdivision and roads and infrastructure site
plan- Discussion
Andrew Tung is an associate of Divney Tung Schwalbe LLP representing the applicant. Mr.
Tung stated that since their presentation in June they have met with Village Staff and the Village
Board of Trustees to resolve three proposed changes to the original Riverfront Development
Concept Plan (the "RDCP") as they relate to the Phase III roads and infrastructure site plan. Mr.
Tung presented a summary of the development areas included in the application. Mr. Tung
stated that the Board of Trustees has approved the proposed elimination of the roadway median
at Palisades Boulevard and the proposed change to the length and design of the center island in
front of the hotel to be consistent with RDCP. Mr. Tung stated that the design for the connection
road that will divide design Blocks O and P is not part of this current application because utility
connections have not been established and the site design plans have not been developed.
Chairperson Hsu solicited comments from the Board.
Thomas Andruss asked if any of the original street island median designs are proposed to remain.
Andrew Tung stated that there were three roadway medians proposed in the original RDCP.
Two of the medians were eliminated in Phase I and Phase II and the last one is proposed to be
removed as part of Phase III. The medians were eliminated in order to comply with the
requirements of the New York State Fire Code for fire truck access.
Chairperson Hsu stated that Peter Chavkin presented parking and traffic studies to the Board of
Trustees for approval of the median elimination in the proposed Phase III application.
Eliminations of the medians in Phase I and Phase II were previously approved by an earlier
Planning Board.
Kersten Harries asked if the streets right-of-way space is reduced by the eliminations of the
medians.
Andrew Tung stated that the streets right-of-way has been reduced by 6 feet but the open space
planting area of the eliminated medians has been moved to the outside and increases the
pedestrian way.
Kersten Harries asked if the building to building fa9ade distance is the same.
Andrew Tung stated that the building facades are now set back further from the right-of-way.
Kersten Harries asked if the allowable square footage for the construction of the buildings will
increase.

�Andrew Tung stated that the building to building distance will remain the same.
David Smith stated that one of the design considerations presented to the Village Board by the
applicant was that the shift of median open space will now become a part of the open
landscaping space associated with the building blocks and the maintenance of the spaces will
become the responsibility of block owners instead of the village.
Chairperson Hsu stated that removing the trees from the median in this block opens up a better
river views and makes it consistent with the prior two phases.
David Smith asked when the Village can expect to see designs for the open space lot.
Andrew Tung stated that the Open Space Committee has been working with Nelson Byrd Woltz,
Landscape Architects on the open space designs. Peter Chavkin is planning to arrange a work
session including representatives from the Planning Board, the Village Board, and the Open
Space Committee, to present the proposed design of the open space.
Andrew Tung stated that the designs for the space outside of the initial hotel plaza, the remainder
of Central Park, and the future waterfront space will not be presented without the consideration
of both sides of the streets.
David Smith asked if there are any preliminary hotel design plans to show how the condensing of
the plaza area adjacent to the hotel relates to traffic circulation access.
Andrew Tung stated that preliminary designs plan for the hotel entrance at the center of the
island and that the garage entry would be off of Palisades Blvd., so that traffic driving into the
garage would not go through the main hotel parking lot or drop-off entrance.
Chairperson Hsu asked for the estimated time of completion of the Phase III roads and
infrastructure so that residents can access the rivers' edge.
Craig Tomkins is the Construction Manager for Lighthouse Landing Communities, LLC. Mr.
Tompkins stated that they hope to complete the Phase III roads and infrastructure starting this
June through June of 2021. Mr. Tomkins stated that funding has been received from New York
State to coordinate construction of the riverfront over the same period of time, pending design
approvals.
Andrew Tung requested that the Board schedule a public hearing for the February 20, 2020
meeting. Mr. Tung stated that they received a comment memo from Woodard &amp; Curran in July
of 2019 and that they are preparing a supplemental response that will be submitted to the Board
the first week in February.
Motion was made to schedule a public hearing for the February 20, 2020 meeting.
Moved: Harries
Seconded: Andruss
