SPR2410-01: Friedman Change of Use, Site Plan Review & Public Hearing
1708 Trumansburg Rd, Parcel Number 34.-1-9
The applicant, Josh Friedman of Friedman Properties LLC, proposes a change of use of an existing
building for a residential dwelling unit to retail store for a NYS licensed cannabis dispensary located at
the address noted above. Per the Code of the Town of Ulysses (CTU) 212-89.W, retail stores are
permitted in the B1 zone but require site plan review pursuant to the provisions listed under CTU 212-
19. The Board previously discussed the application at the December 3 meeting.
Friedman stated he had consulted with a landscape architect, to address concerns about lighting for
traffic. A cobra head yard light will be installed by NYSEG sometime within the next 2 months to light the
entryway to the property off Van Dorn Corners Rd.
