Chairman
North Tarrytown Planning Board

North Tarrytown, New York 10591
RE:

PROPOSED TAPPAN MOTORS SERVICE CENTER

Dear Mr. Galgano:
As you are aware, there .is presently pending before the North
Tarrytown Planning Board a proposed site plan for construction of
Tappan Motors' Automotive Service Center. The location of this
facility is the former Pickwick Post Restaurant on North Broadway.

#

This site was acquired and planned for development in an effort
to relieve the volume of traffic and overcrowding of cars at our
present service center at the intersection of North Broadway and New
Broadway.
It is hoped that this new facility will eliminate offstreet
parking and satisfy some of the complaints of the surrounding
residential neighborhood.
Furthermore, the new facility is essential for Tappan Motors to
remain competitive, efficient and among the finest automotive dealerships in the State.
It is believed that this new facility will add significantly to L *
the community, not only in terms of additional revenues, but improved *
aesthetics. It will also provide us with the opportunity to improve
our existing service area into a more sightly gateway to our commercial
community.
The Board has expressed certain concerns with our presant site
plan.
It is our intention, and always has been our intent, Q:o work
cooperatively with government and our neighbors to reach a compromise
that would be satisfactory to all those invloved.

Center

Therefore, we would propose

the

following:

a)

to erect a sound barrier of the kind and quality utilized
by the New York State Department of Transportation along
its major highways, to screen the surrounding neighborhood
from noise and view;

b)

to submit a landscape plan satisfactory to the Planning
Board for the greening of that residential boundary;

c)

to reserve those parking places abutting our
neighbors for management/employee parking;

d)

at no time will any automobiles without license plates or
automobile wrecks be parked or stored in the parking area; and

e)

the service center will be closed evenings a f t e r 6:00 p.m.
and all weekends, plus major holidays.
Peak hours will be
from 8:00 - 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 - 5:30 in the afternoons.

residential

It is our intention that this new facility w i l l , in fact, allow
us to reduce our present employee staff and therefore reduce congestion
in the neighborhood.
Furthermore, the new facility does not represent
an expansion, but is, in fact, a consolidation of what now exists.
We are presently permitted the use of the property as a restauran
We do not believe that that permitted
ted use with its later hours and the *
noise and litter that accompanies it is preferable to o u r proposed usefll
We would pursue that only if left no alternative.
Thank you for considering our proposal.. If you n e e d further
details, do not hesitate to contact us at your earliest convenience
