Ormsby Dental Office, Site Plan Review-Addition Parking- 1308 East Shore Drive, Parcel # 43 .- 1 -26.51 Jan Ormsby explained to the Planning Board Members that she opened her business/Health Care Clinic in 2001 at which time it was zoned for a Health Care Clinic . At that time a decision was made to allow eight (8) parking spots to be located in the northeast direction of the property. Also, an additional two (2) were added somewhat south along the driveway. Since 2001 her practice has double which has entailed hiring addition staff. Due to the increase in staffing, additional parking spaces are needed. The parking area is located on the south side of the building which is just woods . The building itself blocks view of the parking lot from the neighbor on the North. Woods are also to the South. The office has one ( 1 ) Light which is blocked by the existing building. Mrs . Ormsby indicated additional landscaping would be completed in the spring. According to Mrs. Ormsby with the square footage in the existing structure, eighteen parking spots would be required. Greg Travis inquired if there would be some way to separate the pedestrians walking from their vehicles to the clinic . According to Mrs . Ormsby, the additional parking spots would be used by the employees, however, they, do have plans for a future walkway. Thomas Ellis has concerns regarding drainage from additional parking. Mr. Ellis feels this type of business in a fragile area should not be permitted to expand. Bud Shattuck indicated this location is in a UNA. Viola Miller stated her belief was anything that drains like this, requires DEC approval . Larry Sharpsteen indicated he felt that existing uses should be able to continue/expand within reason. Mr. Sharpsteen feels this parking lot could be engineered so that drainage would not be a problem . Mrs . Ormsby was advised by Larry Sharpsteen that she indeed will need to hire an Engineer for this project as an ElF will need to be completed. An unpaved drive was suggested to allow more absorption of water. 2 Planning Board Mee. mg 12- 1 3-04 Nancy Loncto advised Ian Ormsby to work closely with The Town ' s Engineer, The Code • Enforcement Officer and her own Engineer. The Ormsby' s were instructed to return to the Planning Board with modifications and Stormwater Plans . All Saints Church, Site Plan Review — New Church, 347 Ridge Road, Parcel # 32 .-1 -46 Thomas Schickel, Architect for All Saints Church appeared before the Planning Board with Site Plan designs for a new church. The new church will be 6600 square feet with a basement under a portion of the building. The depth of the basement will be approximately equal to the fall off The overall height of the building will be 33 ' . The existing driveway off of Myers Road will be used. The driveway that leads to Route 34 will no longer be used. At some point the existing parking lot will need some expansion. A few handicap spaces will be added. The site lighting will be a cut light, but to date has not been selected. Larry Sharpsteen advised Mr. Schickel that the Planning Board would like to see a footprint of the lighted area for Final Site Plan approval. Mr. Sharpsteen further inquired if there was a possibility that the existing lighting be changed to match the new lighting. Mr. Schickel stated that there are a couple of pole lights that are currently there that will be removed. All other lights are on the building. There are 4 wall packs that may be candidates for removal . Long term plans for the existing church will be to convert to offices and additional Sunday school rooms. • Mr. Schickel indicated that there has been no discussion as far as the signage, therefore he believes it will remain the same . Greg Travis inquired if a new sewage system would be built or the current one expanded. Mr. Schickel indicated the current system is 9 years old and when the municipal septic goes through, they will hook up . Larry Sharpsteen stated the Planning Board would need to see the approval letter from the Health Department. Stormwater Drainage Plans will need to be on file and in effect prior to the construction phase. Nancy Loncto inquired about the landscaping. Mr. Schickel indicated there are existing shrubs . Due to budget constraints, no plan has been drawn. Thomas Ellis made a motion to accept this Site Plan as a Preliminary Sketch. Mr. Schickel will return with further information within the next couple of months . A Public Hearing will be required. The Planning Board will set the Public Hearing when Mr. Schickel returns with complete information. Greg Travis seconded. VOTE : ALL IN FAVOR. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.

Mrs . Coleman is a Nutritionist who in the past have had guests come to her home and spend the night for • Seminars. The Colemans ' s have found this to become more difficult and would like to 3 Planning Hoard Meeting 12 - 13-04 add four (4) additional seasonal boarding rooms in their out building that is located on • their property to accommodate people.

Next Planning Board Assignment Nancy Loncto advised the Members that the next Planning Board Assignment would be to update The Town of Lansing ' s Comprehensive Plan. Nancy Loncto felt that the amount of time it has taken the Board to complete the Ordinance and Subdivisions that it would be in the best interest of the Planning Board if they were to have someone from the outside work on it. Ms . Loncto has suggested a couple students from The Cornell Institute for Public Affairs complete this task. Members were provided with a draft proposal to review. $5 , 000 . 00 is reserved in the budget for this project. In addition, mailing costs would have to be absorbed by the Planning Board. Larry Sharpsteen stated that the Planning Board will want to filter this project with a fine tooth comb . Mr. Sharpsteen feels fixes and standards will be applied to The Town of Lansing that do not apply to this community. Nancy Loncto has a document that has changes that have not been completed to provide to the students . Larry Sharpsteen suggested that the Planning Board double check to make sure the Land Use Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan are in sink. Mr. Sharpsteen does not feel this project should cost $5 ,000 . 00. Nancy Loncto further explained that the two (2) students would need to have their Supervisor oversee this project. This would be a special project for the students to take on as an internship . This is not a project that would be in • class .
