Victor Miles and Scott McDonough are representing this application on behalf of the applicant. Victor Miles presented a chronology of events for the application. He stated that back in 2010, the applicant contacted local real estate agents for possible properties to use for the staging area. He stated that there were not many options available in the area. In Sept 2010, the applicant met with the Village Trustees to investigate using the Village parking lot. In October 2010, the applicant met with the Planning Board to get approval to use the parking lot for the staging area. The Planning Board suggested using the GM property or the UAW property. He stated that GM said that they would not permit the applicant to use the space and the UAW never responded. Victor Miles stated that the Planning Board requested that different port-a-johns be utilized so they are not offensive to local residents. In December 2010, the Planning Board was presented a new port-a-john design as well as a new location to use 30 Andrews Lane as a staging area. Scott McDonough provided a list of the properties that were contacted. He stated that local realtors provided 3 properties in the area that could be used for staging. He stated that they are very far away from the site and should not be considered for staging. Jennifer Lobato-Church asked if there are any variances needed for using 60 Elm Street. Victor Miles responded that a right-of-passage will be needed to bring trucks into the area. Linda Moiron asked about 30 Andrews Lane. Sean McCarthy responded that the Village will enter into a licensing agreement with the applicant for the use of the parking lot. Jennifer Lobato-Church asked about the staging area. �Victor Miles explained the purpose of the staging area and how is will be used. Jennifer Lobato-Church stated that the remediation will need to take place regardless of the location of the staging area. Victor Miles responded yes. He briefly summarized the entire remediation process starting with soil sampling and the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) work plan process. Jennifer Lobato-Church asked who will be ensuring compliance with the work plan. Victor Miles responded the NYS DEC and the NYS Department of Health (DOH). Michael Wernick asked if the property in Elmsford is feasible. Scott McDonough responded that if the staging area is that far away, an additional staging area will be needed in the immediate site area. The Chair stated that the area residents need to be considered. He stated that this staging area will be there for a considerable time. Victor Miles responded that there will be twice as much traffic if the staging is located outside of the area. He stated that there will be 1-2 trucks on a daily basis with no weekend activity. He stated that the neighborhood is being remediated and there is no way to eliminate the activity. The Chair stated that the applicant needs to present a complete record so that the Board can make a decision. Linda Moiron stated that 2 staging areas would extend the amount of time that is needed to complete the remediation. The Chair asked for more information to further explain why the alternate locations are not viable. M. Gorete Crowe is a resident in the area. She stated that the residents want the remediation to be done quickly. She asked about the duration of the remediation project. Jennifer Lobato-Church responded that the Board needs to consider what they can control (traffic, noise, etc). Victor Miles responded that the applicant must comply with the Village Ordinances regarding traffic and noise. Sean McCarthy stated that the Board can place additional conditions on the variance. Michael Wernick asked about the hours of operation. Victor Miles responded normal business hours. The Chair stated that the Board is trying to make the record as solid as possible. He stated that the work plan should be reviewed by the Board. Victor Miles gave a timeline regarding the approval process and the start of work. He stated that the work plan cannot be released before DEC approves the work plan. He stated that releasing �the work plan before the DEC approval would violate the court order. He stated that the work plan cannot be submitted to the DEC until the staging area is known. Michael Wernick asked if there was a timeframe on the approval. Sean McCarthy responded 1-year. The Chair stated that all of the information is still not being presented to the Board. Victor Miles asked if the variance could be granted with conditions. Sean McCarthy responded yes. Sean McCarthy spoke about the ZBAs approval and the Planning Board review. There was an open discussion on conditions and concerns that can be placed on the approval as well as ensuring that these conditions are included in the DEC approved work plan. Sean McCarthy stated that the applicant should also be allowed to meet with the Planning Board so that the Planning Board can schedule the public hearing. The Chair opened the public hearing. Patricia Daley of 20 Andrews Lane stated that this needs to be remediated ASAP. Since there were no further public comments, the Chair adjourned the public hearing. Linda Moiron stated that the closer the staging area is to the site, the better the benefit to the Village. Jennifer Lobato-Church agreed. She stated that the Board should approve the variance tonight so the application can continue. The Chair stated that the use of the property is not fully known. Linda Moiron stated that the Board's concerns can be noted in the variance. Sean McCarthy reviewed the conditions that can be placed on a temporary use variance. There was an open discussion on conditions for the variance. The Chair made a motion to grant a temporary use variance for the fence subject to Planning Board approval, DEC approval and DOH approval. Linda Moiron seconded. It was unanimous (6-0). 3) Minutes for June 2010 and January 2011 - �The minutes for the June 2010 and February 2011 meetings will be reviewed at the next meeting.
