Mayor &amp; Board of Trustees
Village of North Tarrytown
North Tarrytown, New York
Re:

Anthony Iurato &amp; Strand Building on
Beekman Avenue, No. Tarrytown, N.Y.

Gentlemen:
The Planning Board of the Village of North Tarrytown
at a Special Meeting held on September 26th, 1968 at the Village
Hall at 8 P.M. upon the request of the Mayor, in reference to
a letter from law offices of Costello, Ward, TJrabasso and Shea
to the Mayor dated August 28th, 1968 to consider the request
to change the Village Zoning Ordinance to include Factory and
Manufacturing uses for the Strand Theatre Building on Beekman
Avenue to manufacture and assembly of dresses.
Upon due deliberation and discussion the Planning
Board voted and ruled unanimously that a change in Zoning should
not be made to allow a factory for the manufacture and assembly
of dresses in the C-2 General Commercial District where such
uses is not permitted as per Section 62-8B-C-2-1-2.
1. Such change would be contrary to our comprehensive
development plan which was instituted in 1964 due to the requirements of the Urban Renewal Development Contract. The comprehensive development plan took two years to formulate with the
cooperation of the New York State Department of Commerce in
studies, inspections and public hearings, and at a cost of
$24,000 of which the Village share was one-third of the cost.

2. In our comprehensive plan, provision has been
made in our "M" District "Manufacturing" where such fabrication and assembly is permitted.
3. To grant this request would be "spot zoning"
favoring one parcel or lot against the entire C-2 General
Commercial District.
4. The existing building is non-conforming and
at present occupies 95% of the plot area.
5. The existing traffic situation on Beekman Avenue
must be considered.
6. A factory has employees and there are no provisions
for off-street parking for the employees on the site.
The contention that the applicant could lease 25
parking spaces in the Van Tassel Garage is not feasible since
the Van Tassel garage was built for the use of the tenants of
the Van Tassel Apartment house. Such a transaction would not
be permanent and also would force the tenants of the Van Tassel
apartments to park in the street.
7• A factory must have an area for loading and unloading
its materials and products. No such area is available on the lot.
The contention that loading and unloading would be
done in the late night hours is not feasible since the Chevrolet
plants night shift congest Beekman Avenue from 1 A.M. to 3 A.M.
and any later loading or unloading would disturb the tenants
in that area.
