Mr . George appeared before the Board members end presented his proposed develop-
meat plan for property he owns on the corner of Routes 34 end 34- B across from
411 Rogues Harbor . He has renovated the house on this property and hopes to use it
as a Head Start Center once he has obtained New York State approval . He said
that he has met all the requirements with the work he has done . The driveway
to the house will be black:- topped , exterior lighting will be provided and
possibly the barn in the rear of the property will be torn down even though
it is structurally sound end could be used for storage . He felt he had pro-
vided for adequate parking as per his architect ' s plans .
Mr . George said that the antique furniture store presently located across the
street from his property hoped to move into larger Quarters . He owns the
former service station on the corner and would like to remodel it for that
particular business .
The new construction would consist of e liquor store , a drug store , a convenient
store an island with , gas pumps and possibly another building to house future
prospects .
He felt that his plans would help Lansing as there was nothing like it in the
area and said it could possibly create forty jobs when completed . He described
the interior and exterior design . There would be e covered walkway by using the
roof trusses . He wanted to keep the cost low enough for tenants to come in end
stay .
L . Hirvonen questioned the possible problem of drainage due to the large area he
planned to black top for shopping parking . He assured her his plans w : uld meet
with the County Health Department rules . H . Ley noted that there was natural
drainage along the property line basically south of Mr . George ' s property . L .
H irvonen worrbd that there might be run- off into the street without provisions
for drainage . Mr . George said that it would be too expensive for him to build
the parking area up high enough to create this problem . He felt that a :grate
and pipe could carry any extra water off safely .
J . Kirby wanted to know if his parking area would have to be approved by the
State because it would be off e State highway . Mr . George told her he had
already talked with the State and was assured that there would not be any problem .
