They have sent a letter, but she has not responded yet. 323 - The Bank would entertain the idea of installing the no left turn sign after they are open 324 if it is found that traffic has increased substantially on Franklin. 325 - Dean would like added to the resolution that Andy would not have the ability to remove 326 large vegetation on the easement without replacing it. 327 - Paul Southard, 17 Maple Dr, expressed concern over the zoning on the property where 328 the easement is located.The lot is partially in R1, partially in B2. He stated that the use Page 9 of 23 APPROVED 329 of the easement is fitting for the B2 zone, but the easement is in the R1 zone. He 330 referred to the easement as an accessory use. 331 - We should get advice from Guy on what is considered accessory. 332 - When a property is split between 2 zones, whichever zone area is larger has 333 precedence- meaning that the allowable use for this property would follow B2 rules 334 - C.J. clarified that the 50ft on the boundary between the zones can be considered as 335 either zones to the lot owner's discretion. 336 - C.J. stated that easements are an agreement or a record, not an accessory or land use. 337 - Dean would like to see a planting schedule, including sizes, species, and quantities 338 - Some of the landscaping plans are being reworked due to pricing. 339 - Non-commercial trucks/SUV's are the tallest vehicles we expect, so any shrubs or 340 bushes need to be able to block headlights at that height. 5-6ft. 341 - Plantings need to be at 65% of their mature size at the time of planting. 342 - NYSEG has provided a list of acceptable plantings as to not interfere with their lines. 343 - The board would like to see a staggered row of trees, or a single row of hedges on 344 Franklin. 345 - Holly, boxwood,juniper are possible options 346 - A short berm could be an option to raise the shrubs up, but may not be allowed by 347 NYSEG. 348 - The environmental assessment form was read and discussed 349 o The easement question came up, possibly get advice from Guy on accessory 350 structure 351 o If the easement to Andy is a problem, what about the one to the phone company 352 and NYSEG? 353 - The following statement was requested to be read into record: 354 Hello. My name is Christa Downey. I live at 20 Franklyn Drive with my husband and elementary 355 school child and I wish for these notes to be read at the next Town Board meeting: 356 357 We have lived on Franklyn Drive since 2015 and are raising our child here. What appeared to be 358 a quiet residential street, quickly proved to be a bit of a dangerous road at times, with cars 359 avoiding the Triphammer/Peruville stop sign/stoplight and speeding down Franklyn at 40 or 360 more mph on a regular basis. We currently have a plea into the town for a speed limit sign at 25 361 or 30 mph. I fear the bank proposal will bring even more traffic to our street, making it more 362 dangerous for our daughter to play with the growing number of neighborhood children. 363 Page 10 of 23 APPROVED 364 1 would like to propose that the exit onto Franklyn Drive is set on an angle/curve preventing a 365 left hand turn and is labeled right turn only, forcing bank traffic back onto Triphammer Road. 1 366 also request that the 25 or 30 mph speed limit sign is installed before the bank opens. 367 368 1 support the growth of Lansing provided it not come at the expense of maintaining safe 369 neighborhoods for children to bike and play with each other the way a community should be, 370 without the danger of high traffic or speeding cars on residential streets. 371 372 Thank you for your consideration. 373 Best regards, 374 Christa Downey 375 - It is suggested that Christa draft a petition and present it to the Town Board with 376 support from the neighbors 377 - Larry would like the resolution to include the statement by Scott Babcock, that the bank 378 would be willing to install the sign for no left turns in the future, if necessary. 379 o Traffic study now would do no good, we want to see how the bank effects traffic. 380 o Once the bank is open, either a camera or someone physically tallying how many 381 cars turn left out of the bank would be the best option if complaints are still 382 being received. 383 o C.J. wanted the board to be aware that if there is a concern over traffic, they 384 need to pull back and do a traffic study now under SEQRA 385 o Perhaps a local traffic only sign can be installed 386 - Dean would like the following amendments added to the resolution: 387 o The bank attempted to contact the neighbor 388 o We will be provided a planting schedule 389 o Vegetation disturbed in the easement must be replaced 390 Motion to Accept the Resolution as Amended at 8:35pm 391 So moved: Larry Sharpsteen Seconded: Norman L.

The sign is larger than what is allowed 720 within town law. Also question regarding compliance of the pedestal that the sign would 721 be placed on. 722 - The following statement was asked to be read into record: 723 Hello Lansing Town Board and Planning Board, 724 725 1 am writing to follow up on this Monday's planning board meeting and the proposed Dollar 726 General in North Lansing. Based on comments from town attorney Guy Krogh, it sounds like 727 nearby residents can complain about noise/light/traffic/aesthetics etc all we want, and the 728 planning board can require that Dollar General take steps to mitigate some of those concerns, 729 but ultimately it is still an allowed use of the land according to the zoning, so cannot outright 730 prevent them from building the store. I realize a moratorium was discussed as somewhat of a 731 nuclear option, but I would strongly encourage the town to consider one for two reasons: Page 20 of 23 APPROVED 732 Agricultural land should be for agricultural use. It makes no sense to have land zoned 733 "agricultural" if it turns out that "oh, this can actually be used for pretty much anything." The 734 town's comprehensive plan does not envision North Lansing as a commercial or retail area. 735 What happens if Dollar General effectively manages to ram this proposal through and the town 736 updates the zoning laws less than a year from now?Then we are stuck with a store that really 737 shouldn't have slipped through before the changes. If we are in a time of flux, we should ensure 738 that any new buildings match the future vision for the town. 739 Dollar General's business plan is to relentlessly expand into small towns in order to 740 compete with Walmart. These stores can create "food deserts" as they drive smaller local 741 grocery stores like Lansing Market out of business, creating zones where it is difficult for 742 residents to access fresh produce. It's so bad that some cities have started banning new dollar 743 stores from opening too close to existing ones. We should consider this risk to Lansing residents 744 if Lansing Market goes out of business. Genoa and Locke residents are already served by a 745 Dollar General 10 minutes away in Moravia. We don't need another one halfway between 746 Moravia and Lansing. I would rather be a town with one dollar general and one local grocery 747 store than two dollar generals and zero local grocery stores. This would force most Lansing 748 residents to make the trip all the way down to Tops/Target/BJs if they want fresh produce. 749 Thank you for your time, and I hope you will consider whatever urgent action is needed to 750 prevent Dollar General from further saturating the region with their stores. Please put this 751 email "on the record" as far as the planning board is concerned. 752 Ben Finio 753 74 Sharpsteen Rd 754 755 RESOLUTION PB 20-20 756 757 STATE ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY REVIEW RESOLUTION - DECLARATION 758 OF LEAD AGENCY, DOLLAR GENERAL RETAIL STORE, SITE PLAN REVIEW 759 AND MINOR SUBDIVISION, AUBURN RD, TAX PARCEL NO. 5.4-32 760 761 WHEREAS, 6 NYCRR § 617 of the State Environmental Quality Review Act ("SEQRA") 762 requires that a Lead Agency be established for conducting environmental review of 763 projects in accordance with state environmental law and the Lead Agency shall be that 764 local agency which has primary responsibility for approving and funding or carrying out 765 the action; and 766 767 WHEREAS, an application was made by Steve Vukas, Bohler Engineering MA, LLC on 768 behalf of Franklin Land Associates, LLC, Owners, for construction of a 9,100 sq. ft. retail Page 21 of 23 APPROVED 769 store with parking and other site improvements and subdivision of the existing 5.729- 770 acre parcel, Lansing, New York, TPN 5.4-32, located in the Rural Agricultural (RA) 771 Zoning District; and 772 773 WHEREAS,this is a proposed action reviewed under Town of Lansing Code § 270-7 Site 774 Plan Review and § 235-6 Minor Subdivision, for which the respective completed 775 applications were received August 28, 2020; and 776 777 WHEREAS,The Planning Board of the Town of Lansing is believed best suited to 778 review the impacts of this proposed Site Plan and Minor Subdivision as (i) the Planning 779 Board is the only body with jurisdiction to issue the final Site Plan and Minor 780 Subdivision approvals, (ii) the Planning Board is best situate to understand and 781 evaluate the potential unique impacts of such Major Subdivision upon the Town based 782 upon the developmental patterns, topography, and unique natural and non-natural 783 features of the Town of Lansing, including known streams,wetlands, UNAs, 784 agricultural resources of value, and archeosensitive sites within or near the Site Plan 785 and Minor Subdivision area, (iii) the Planning Board has the broadest governmental 786 powers for investigating the potential or actual impacts of the Site Plan and Minor 787 Subdivision and implementing conditions or mitigating controls, and accordingly (iv) 788 the Planning Board has the greatest capacity for providing the most thorough 789 environmental assessment of the proposed Site Plan and Minor Subdivision; and 790 791 WHEREAS, this proposed action is an Unlisted Action for the purposes of a State 792 Environmental Quality Review Act ("SEQRA") review; 793 794 NOW,THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS: 795 796 That the Town of Lansing Planning Board does hereby declare itself Lead Agency for the 797 environmental review for the action of Site Plan and Minor Subdivision review for Town 798 of Lansing Tax Parcel Number 5.-1-32 for Steve Vukas, Bohler Engineering MA, LLC, 799 Applicant, on behalf of Franklin Land Associates, LLC, Owners. 800 801 Dated: October 26, 2020 802 803 Motioned by: Norman Lin Davidson 804 Seconded by: Deborah Trumbull 805 VOTE AS FOLLOWS: 806 Sandra Dennis Conlon-Aye Page 22 of 23 APPROVED 807 Norman Lin Davidson-Aye 808 Al Fiorille-Aye 809 Larry Sharpsteen-Aye 810 Dean Shea-Aye 811 Deborah Trumbull-Aye 812 Jerry Caward-Aye 813 814 Discussion Items: 815 816 Planning Report: 817 - Request for proposals for the Short-Term Rentals should be coming in 818 - Parks, Recreation, and Trails Master Plan kickoff meeting is on 10/27/2020 819 - Evaluation committee on 10/28 should be making a recommendation on the firm they 820 would like to select for the Highway Renovation Project for the first portion. 821 - Meeting with Al, Larry, and Dean, along with county planner Darby Kiley, and Terry 822 Carroll from Cornell Cooperative Extension.
