WHEREAS, the project is fully described in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS),
H

Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), Findings Statement, in all materials and in
submissions in support thereof, and the application materials referenced above; and

WHEREAS, the B oard has reviewed the application for Special Permit Approval in accordance with
Section 62-22.3 (VII. 1-6) of the Zoning Code of the Village of Sleepy Hollow; and

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that pursuant to Section 62-22.3 (VII1-6) of the Zoning
Code, the Board determines that the project, as defined above and modified by the conditions
enumerated in this Special Permit, meets the following conditions and standards:

The CCRC use shall be of such character, intensity, size and location that in general it will be in
harmony with the orderly development of the neighborhood in which the property is situated and
will not be detrimental to the orderly development of adjacent districts (Section 62-22.3, VII1).

The proposed Kendal on Hudson CCRC is to be developed in the H-Hospital District and
in basic height, bulk and square, footage is generally compatible with the existing Phelps
Hospital building. The proposed Project is separated from the adjacent Sleepy Hollow
Manor neighborhood by a 7± acre buffer area. The buffer area will remain as a vegetated
buffer and be augmented as a result of the proposed project The majority of the traffic
associated with the project will enter and exit the site via Route 117 and US Route 9. The
resulting site related traffic will not significantly impact the local roadway network. The
project is located 100 feet away from and down gradient from the James House, a
Page 3 of 11

�£l&lt;e

I
structure of local historical significance located on the Phelps Hospital property within
the H-Hospital district. The building heights have been modified through the course of
the environmental review so that they are now a maximum of five stories. A landscaping
component, including a decorative border element, which may include a wall and or
balustrade, will be provided between the James House and the CCRC building program
which will help soften the appearance of the proposed facility from the James House.
The project will be visible from the neighboring Rockwood Hall portion of the
Rockefeller State Park Preserve but landscaped berms that Kendal on Hudson has
committed to construct and maintain, will mitigate potential visual impacts. A portion of
an existing carriage trail on the Rockwood Hall property will be relocated and replaced as

H

a result of the proposed project. The Applicant will provide $300,000 to assist in off-site

^

sanitary sewer improvements. Said improvements mitigate potential impacts to the
existing system, and, in some instances, will improve its capacity over preconstruction •
conditions. Connection by Kendal to the municipal water system will also allow for a
connection of the Sleepy Hollow Manor neighborhood to the south of the Kendal
development to the northern loop of the Village's water system, alleviating an existing
low pressure condition in that neighborhood.. Studies prepared as part of the EIS indicate
that said connection will improve water circulation and water pressure in that portion of
the Village. As such the proposed use will be in harmony with the appropriate and orderly
development of the H-Hospital District in which it is located.

Traffic involved in or conducted in connection with the CCRC, the size of the site in relation to
it, and the location of the site with respect to the type, arrangement and capacity of streets giving
access to it, are such that it will be in harmony with the appropriate and orderly development of

H

the neighborhood in which it is located (62-22.3 VII - 2)

H

•

CCRC facilities are typically low generators of vehicular activity given the general age of
the resident population, the provision of on site activities and services and the availability
of vans to transport residents. Employee shift changes and deliveries will be scheduled as
practicable to occur outside the peak highway hours. As presented in the EIS, the project
would generate 68 vehicles (43 entering, 25 exiting) on the weekday AM peak hour and
77 vehicles (31 entering, 46 exiting) in the weekday PM peak hour. Based on the
Page 4 of 11

�o?*

I
analysis in the EIS, the project would have a minimal effect on the eight intersections
analyzed.
Access to the project is provided via Rockwood Road, a two-lane local road that extends
from NYS Route 117 and provides connection to US Route 9. As mitigation identified
during the EIS process, the Applicant is required to construct a turning lane on Route 9 at
the westbound Route 117 entrance ramp. A landscaped parking area for Rockwood Hall is
planned to be provided by the New York State Parks Department. Visitors to Rockwood
Hall, the Mount Pleasant Executive Center and the James House will all benefit as a result

I

of the improvements. The Applicant has indicated during the course of the environmental
review that they would restrict, through the use of signage at appropriate locations, Kendal
residents, employees and visitors from utilizing the hospital roadways for ingress and egress.

The proposed project, with mitigation as proposed, will not adversely impact traffic andis
consistent and in harmony with the appropriate and orderly development of the neighborhood
in which it is located.

The location, nature and height of building, walls and fences, and the nature and extent of the
landscaping and screening on the site, as existing or proposed, are such that the use will not hinder
or discourage the appropriate development and use of adjacent land and buildings ( 62-22.3 VII 3).

I

•

The Kendal on Hudson building program is situated west of and down gradient from the
James House, a locally historically significant structure. The Kendal on Hudson buildings
are designed to reflect the important design aspects of the Italianate style, similar to that
exhibited by the James House. Materials traditionally used in Westchester (e.g. stone and
stucco) varied combinations of rooflines and window openings and horizontal and vertical
delineations within the building facades are incorporated to create an integrated design for
the CCRC.

Page 5 of 11

I
Walls and fences are limited to retaining walls along the eastern and western sections of the
Kendal loop road and garden walls and fences within the landscaped court yards and
grounds. The retaining walls will be architecturally treated and screened from off site view
by existing vegetation and proposed landscaping.

A comprehensive landscape plan has been proposed which includes the planting of at least
370 deciduous and evergreen trees. The proposed plantings address aesthetic, screening,
reforestation and slope stabilization measures. Ornamental trees, shrubs and ground covers
will be provided around the Kendal on Hudson buildings.

A portion of an existing carriage trail on the neighboring Rockwood Hall portion of the
Rockefeller State Park Preserve will be relocated. An extensive landscape component,

I

including topographic berms, is provided on the site plan drawings as part of this special
permit application. The use of berms and landscaping limit potential impacts to this portion
of the park system. Based on the extent of the landscaping and use of topographic berms,
the project will not hinder or discourage the appropriate development and use of adjacent
land and buildings.

Operations in connection with a CCRC use will not be more objectionable to nearby properties by
reason of noise, fumes, vibrations, lighting or flashing of lights, than wouldbe the operations ofany
permitted use not requiring a special permit. (62-22.3 VII-4).

would have that may involve sirens or flashing lights
Parking areas will be of adequate size for the CCRC use, properly located and suitably screened
from any adjoining residential uses, and the entrance and exit drives shall be laid out so as to
achieve maximum safety (62-22.3 VII -5).

•

The proposed project includes parking for 393 vehicles adequate for residents, staff and
visitor needs. In an effort to minimize visual impact and conserve open space, resident
parking is provided in below building spaces; staff parking is provided in the lower level of
a proposed parking deck in proximity to the Phelps Memorial Hospital; and visitor parking
is provided in discrete groupings in the vicinity of each building- Existing and proposed
landscaping along the southern loop road and southern property boundary will screen the
parking areas from the residential neighborhood to the south.

Site access is provided by a two-way entrance drive starting at the end of Rockwood Road.
The proposed roadway has been designed to meet Village and Town standards although it
will be a private roadway maintained by Kendal. An "emergency only" access is provided
in the vicinity of proposed parking deck in the southern portion of the site. Additionally, the
proposed project parking areas are properly sized, located and screened and the access drives
are designed to achieve maximum safety.

Tlie CCRC use shall be so located on the lot involved that it shall not impair the use and enjoyment
of adjacent residential properties (62-22.3 VII - 6).
The proposed CCRC buildings are located in the northwest comer of the Phelps Memorial
Hospital campus, set back in excess of 400 feet from the nearest residential building to the
-south—Separating-the^roposed-&lt;^R€Hrom-*heHre^^
vegetated buffer which will be augmented with additional plantings.

The utility connections have been designed to avoid connecting to the Sleepy Hollow Manor
system in Birch Close and disturbing that street or adjoining residences. The proposed
pedestrian system will not connect to the Birch Close or Terrace Close rights of way, but
instead will make two connections to the Rockwood Hall trails."
