21 The Town of Lansing Planning Board was unable to hold a formal meeting due to lack of a quorum.
•
23 Candy Cima, Informal Discussion —Guest Suites
24 Mr. Barney is concerned for his client Ms . Cima regarding the "future road" that is shown on the approved map .
25 To the best of Mr. Barney ' s knowledge there are no current plans for that road to be extended, nor does he think
26 the Town has any interest in taking it over. Ms. Cima has been paying taxes on the property since day one . It
27 would not make much sense to put a road in that location due to the sight distance. Mr. Barney questioned if
28 there is some reason why Ms . Cima should be obliged to maintain a prospective future road that the Town is not
29 paying for, that she is being taxed on for an indefinite time . Mr. Barney feels it ' s not reasonable without some
30 sort of compensation from the Town that Ms . Cima not be able to use her land .
31 Gregg Travis explained that the board has had prior discussion on this and from the memories of Larry Sharpsteen
32 and Viola Miller, (who were on the board at the time) they do remember this as a fairly strong commitment to
33 there being a future road. Mr. Travis presented the original document that was approved/signed in 1990 showing
34 the 60 ' wide right of way with two pins establishing the right of way, also , a 3 `i pin . Mr. Travis explained that
35 there was a plan to line up two potential sections of roadway (this and 60 ' right of way off of Cherry) . The board
36 has no issue with what Ms . Cima would like to do, the issue is the location . Members would like Ms . Cima to
37 explore alternatives regarding relocating the site .

39 Linda Hirovnen , Informal Discussion - Byrne Dairy
40 Ms . Hirovnen appeared before the board and spoke on behalf of Byrne Dairy. Byrne Dairy would like very much
41 to set up a 4, 000 square foot store that will predominantly sell dairy products, also, items that are not carried in
the normal convenience store . All new Byrne Dairy stores include fueling stations . The location that Byrne
Dairy is looking to purchase is owned by the town and located on Ridge Road . Ms . Hirovnen passed out
44 pamphlets to the members showing what the store would look like . Ms . Hirovnen and the Byrne Dairy
45 Representatives met with Mr.Farkas and Mr. Plan prior to her coming to the Planning Board . Their thoughts were
46 that the town felt there were enough gas stations in the B1 area and would prefer to limit that number by not

8 Mr. Ralph Sirico is interested in opening up a Taxi business in the Town of Lansing . The location he had in
9 mind would be the small mall where the Post Office is located . There is nothing listed in the Ordinance that
10 defines this type of business . It was suggested that this type of livery service should go under Special Permits as
11 well as having Site Plan Review .
12 Mr. Platt advised the Board Member that the upcoming State Planning Federation Meeting will be held in NYC
13 starting Sunday, February 16, 2003 thru Wednesday, February 19 , 2003 . Members that plan to attend are required
14 to return all the necessary paperwork to Rachel or Sharon by Monday, December 9, 2002 . Mr. Shattuck
15 encouraged all Planning Board Members, as well as other interested Town Employees to attend .

17 Mr. Shattuck —Sun Path Update
18 Mr. Shattuck explained to the board members that were present some of the prior illegal transactions that occurred
19 by the current owner . A prospective buyer, Mr. Boris Simkin and current owner, Mr. Jay O ' Rear met with Town
20 Officials (Farkas, Shattuck, John) to discuss what must be done before any subdivision will be approved . It was
21 made clear that if Mr. Simkin were to purchase the property, he must build the road to town specs over to the
22 Butler property . Also, he must put in water.
