A. Purity Ice Cream, 700 Cascadilla St., John Snyder Architects, for Bruce Lane, Owner, Public Hearing &
Consideration of Modified Site Plan Approval. The applicant is requesting changes to the site plan approved on
July 23, 2013. The modified project includes interior renovations of the existing masonry and steel‐framed
building, as well as the additional second‐story level to include 2,866 SF of new office space, elevator tower,
lobby space, restrooms, mechanicals and an outdoor terrace seating area. Site work will include: an outdoor
patio; pedestrian walkways; new sidewalk paving and pedestrian areas on Cascadilla Street; reorganization and
repaving of the parking area to include 25 spaces (17 were approved in the previous site plan); landscaping; and
a wooden guard‐rail fence along Fulton Street. The previously‐approved access road from the parking area to
Cascadilla Street has been removed, as has the Fulton/Esty Street parking lot. The Cascadilla Street parking lot is
unchanged from the approved site plan. Proposed modifications are consistent with the environmental review
(including required mitigations) that was completed for this project on June 25, 2013.
