To: North Tarrytown Planning Board Date: January 13, 1992 Subject: Hudson Canyon Construction II - North Broadway - Site Plan Approval I. Introduction The purpose of this memorandum is to provide our analysis of the revised plans for the proposed renovation of an existing structure located at 281 North Broadway, as identified on plans entitled, "281 North Broadway Renovation Hudson Canyon Construction Inc.," prepared by Francis X. Arvan, Architect, dated November 8, 1991 and last revised January 7, 1992. We previously reviewed an earlier version of this plan in our memorandum of November 19, 1991 entitled, "Hudson Canyon Construction - 281 North Broadway - Site Plan Approval." Our previous memorandum detailed a number of variances and/or approvals that might need to be granted by the North Tarrytown Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) with regards to the proposed application (i.e., variances for use, driveway width and setbacks, as well as approval of the provision of required parking on a lot other than that supporting the principal use). It is our understanding that the necessary variances and approvals have been secured from the ZBA. This office's November 19, 1991 memorandum also detailed information and/or plan revisions that were needed to address site planning issues associated with the site's parking, lighting and buffering. The remainder of this memorandum is devoted to addressing those site planning issues. II. Analysis A. Parking and Loading Requirements 1. Loading Space: The applicant has revised his plan to provide one conforming loading space, as required by § 62- �FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning /Development/Environment/Transportation that there does not exist the reasonable likelihood for potentially significant environmental impacts associated with this application. A negative declaration would also terminate the SEQR review process. Pending the submission of additional information, this concludes our comments at this time.

Portman, AICP Frederick E. Wiedle, AICP Howard I. Reynolds, PE David H. Stolman, AICP Michael A. Galante Joanne P. Meder, AICP Jim Donovan, RLA, ASLA MEMORANDUM To: North Tarrytown Planning Board Date: January 13, 1992 Subject: Phelps Memorial Hospital - Medical Office Building - Site Plan Approval , Since the submission of our November 19, 1991 memorandum of review entitled, "Phelps Memorial Hospital - Medical Office Building Site Plan Approval," the only new submission by the applicant has been a completed Full (long Form) Environmental Impact Statement (EAF). It is our understanding that the EAF, along with a notice designating the North Tarrytown Planning Board's intention to be lead agency, was distributed on December 5, 1991 to all identified involved and interested agencies. Consequently, assuming the Village has received no objections from any other involved agency, the Planning Board should officially declare itself lead agency at the January 16, 1991 Planning Board Meeting. There remains some outstanding information and/or plan revisions that must be provided by the applicant before the Planning Board will be in a position to make a determination of significance with regards to this application's compliance with the requirements of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQR). This information has been previously detailed in the November 19, 1991 memorandum of review from this office, as well as in memorandums from the office of the Village Engineering Consultant and during the Planning Board hearing process. We would recommend that the applicant provide all information previously requested so that the Planning Board can make a negative or positive declaration with regards to a determination of significance. A positive declaration would indicate that the Planning Board, acting a lead agency, believes that there exists the potential for significant environmental impacts associated with this application and that a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) should be prepared to address those areas of potentially significant environmental impacts. Conversely, a negative declaration would indicate that the Planning Board is satisfied �FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning / Development /Environment/ Transportation 14.A.(2) and § 62-14.F. of the Code of the Village of North Tarrytown (the Code). 2. Handicapped Parking Space: The applicant has revised his plan to comply with the New York State Building Code requirement that handicapped parking spaces maintain sixteen feet of width, with an eight-foot wide aisle and an eight-foot wide parking area. We would only recommend that the plan be amended to show the required handicapped parking aisle area as being that area adjacent to the structure's stairway. 3. Apartment Parking Need Generation: As previously requested, the applicant should specify the number of bedrooms in the site's two apartments so as to provide the necessary information to calculate parking need. B. Lighting A lighting plan, inclusive of calculated foot candle measurements at the property line (not to exceed one and onehalf foot candles at the property line) should be supplied. C. Buffering The applicant has amended his plan to provide for a five-foot high ceder stockade fence around the perimeter of the parking area. We would recommend that the plan be amended to designate that the finished side of the fence face the adjoining residential uses. III. Pending the submission of the information and plan amendments identified above, this concludes our comments at this time.

ASLA MEMORANDUM To: North Tarrytown Planning Board Date: January 13, 1992 Subject: Proposed Antonio Cabinetry Shop - North Broadway I. Introduction Subsequent to the submission of our December 30, 1991 memorandum of review entitled "Antonio Cabinetry - North Broadway," the applicant revised his plans to address some of the concerns we raised. The revised plans include the following: "Proposed Antonio Cabinetry," prepared by Contadino Architects, dated December 19, 1991 and last revised January 2, 1992. "Antonio Cabinetry," prepared by Contadino Architects, dated January 2, 1992. We will not endeavor to fully repeat here all of our comments from the December 30, 1991 memorandum. However, we will now briefly review any previously identified areas of concern that have not been adequately addressed in the applicant's revised plans. II. Analysis A. Required Variances As further detailed in our memorandum of December 30, 1991, a number of variances will be required in order for this application to move forward. Specifically, a use variance for the proposed manufacturing/wholesale uses will be required, as will be bulk variances for deficient front and rear yard setbacks. The applicant also submitted a letter of December 24, 1991 detailing the nature of the proposed showroom use and �FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning / Development/ Environment / Transportation limiting, to five, the number employees that will be allowed to work at this site. Consequently, our concerns regarding the site's numerical parking demand have now been met. (However, as detailed below, we remain concerned about the tight parking layout and deficient parking space sizes.) Also, the note on the plan stating, "Total parking provided excluding shared parking," should either be further explained or eliminated. It is not clear what, if any, uses are sharing what parking or how this affects the site's ability to meet its numerical parking demand. B. Performance Standards As previously detailed, this use is regulated under the Special Permit standards of the Code of the Village of North Tarrytown, as articulated in § 62-16. This section identifies specific potential impacts (e.g. atmospheric pollution, odors, liquid and solid waste, noise, vibration and electrical interference) that must be examined and mitigated to the maximum extent practicable in order for the special permit to be granted. Apparently in response to our last memorandum, the applicant added some brief notes to the plan indicating their belief that no impacts identified in § 62-16 would extend beyond the site's property lines. Notwithstanding these site plan notes, we remain concerned that this use may result in neighboring properties being affected by several of the impacts identified as areas of concern in § 62-16. For example, it seems reasonable to expect that a furniture shop would use paints and varnishes as well as power tools. Consequently, information on the types of ventilation that will be employed on the site should be supplied so that the Planning Board can make a determination as to the potential impacts, if any, to adjoining neighbors that may be involved in the venting of fumes and odors or in the noise of ventilation equipment itself. Also, if the structure does not have air conditioning within the work areas, it seems reasonable to expect that windows and doors would be left open during the warmer months. This could be expected to result in the release of noise, odors and fumes to adjoining residential and commercial properties. Furthermore, the disposal methods that will be employed for paints, varnishes and other potentially hazardous materials should be supplied. C. Transitional Use Because the use is proposed for a lot that abuts residential properties within a residential district, the applicant is 2 �FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation required to provide for buffering as detailed in § 62-9.C. While we agree with the applicant that a fence would serve no buff ering v purpose on this property and that the natural vegetation on the property should remain, we feel that the permanent protection of this existing vegetated buffer area should be ensured through the addition of a site plan note identifying all. existing vegetated areas as, "Vegetative buffer areas -to be permanently maintained in their natural state. '•• D. ParkinaL Layout As detailed in our December 3Q, 1991 memorandum, and as further noted in the January 7, 1991 (sic, probably 1992) letter of review from the Westchester County Planning Board, the site's parking layout is tight and some parking spaces are deficient.. We urge that the parking layout be improved, as the existing layout constitutes a potentially hazardous situation. E- Lot .Lines At the Planning Board meeting of December 19, 1991, several member of-tfo£i Board requested that specific information on the lot's exact -^boundaries be provided. Although the applicant has provided information on existing tax lot lines that are internal -teethe identified site, it remains unclear whether the identified- site constitutes a previously subdivided lot or whether the site is composed of parts of existing lots. This information must be supplied. Ill. Conclusion Pending the submission of the information identified above, this concludes our comments at this time.
