He explained there would be a preliminary hearing on Mr. Rodrigues' request for a sub-division of his property at 56 Clinton Street. He would like to sub-divide lot 6A from lots 7 and 7A, and build a four family apartment house on lots 7 and 7A. Parking would be provided for twelve spaces. The building permit was denied on the premises that lots 6A, 7 and 7A are considered one building lot. The sub-division would cause lot 6A to become non-conforming, as more than 307o of the land would then be covered, and not allowed in a C-2 zone. Mr. Hughes, representing Mr. Rodrigues, said two parking spaces per family are required, but that three spaces per family will be made available. He noted that the building now on lot 6A has four families living in it. Mr. Margotta noted that the rear lot behind 7A and 7 is considered part of lot 7. Mr. Hughes said he would return if a variance is granted to Mr. Rodrigues. A motion to refer the Rodrigues Enterprise situation to the Zoning Board was made by Mr. O'Leary, seconded by Mr. Dool, and was unanimously passed. Chairman Galgano brought up a matter formerly discussed, that of Greene County. The question of how much enforcement power the Planning Board has was raised. Mr. O'Leary asked for a review. Mr. Margotta explained that Greene County's new property was given a variance by the Zoning Board with the understanding that off-street parking would be supplied for the loading and unloading of trucks. The factory would be at their "old" store. It was decided by the Zoning Board that retail sales in their new store was alright, but the request for manufacturing in the old store was denied. Mr. Dool noted that a 9/18/86 request for a sub-division would not require any zoning changes. Minutes from May 9, 1986 Zoning Board meeting allowed the variance with the understanding that all loading and unloading by Greene County would be off the street, and done in the parking area on the side. Mr. O'Leary asked if a certificate of occupancy had been granted, �-2to which Mr. Margotta said no such certificate has been issued. Mr. O'Leary said he would like to know how Greene County plans to provide off-street parking. This should be cleared up before any decision on a sub-division is made, he noted. Mr. Margotta asked the attorney, Mr. Arkin, how this could affect the Planning Board's decision. Mr, Arkin said the Planning Board has the power to grant the sub-division even if the variances are not being adhered to. Mr. O'Leary said he wants the applicant to answer how this issue can be met, what solution or steps can be taken to meet proper parking. Chairman Galgano asked Mr. Arkin to please write Greene County a letter that would cover these questions, and to ask for a reply. Mr. Dool asked the Board members to meet next Thursday, January 21, at 8:00 P.M. for further discussion of this matter. The topic of the James House at Phelps Memorial Hospital was raised for discussion by Chairman Galgano. The issue raised by Mr. Dool was whether use of the James House would be bad for competition with the hospital itself. Mr. Rey said he. felt no harm would come of it. Chairman Galgano noted a Permitted Accessory Use list to which the James House could be added. The Planning Board will send the Board of Trustees a recommendation of inclusion of the James House to the list of Permitted Accessory Uses. A motion was made by Mr. Rey for the temporary use of existing buildings and facilities at Phelps Hospital for fund raising activities, including leasing of space for catered affairs, art shows and other similar activities. The motion was seconded by Mr. O'Leary, and was unanimously carried. Mr. O'Leary requested that the Planning Board ask Phelps for the results of a survey as to what would be the most likely uses of the James House. Chairman Galgano adjourned the meeting at 8:55 P.M.
