Re: June Meeting Agenda
Dear Ms . Loncto ,
I 've reviewed the following project that is on the PlanningBbard Agenda for
g the June 12th meeting and
offer the following comments :
N . Triphammer Multi-Use Subdivision — Sketch Plan
• The road configuration of ST-1 (5/29/06) has the potential of introducing three new intersections
on N . Triphammer in a relatively short distance should the road extension through the
Michaleen's parcel (37 . 1 -6-3. 361 ) be constructed . it is still recommended that this extension be
pursued now and then convert " Road B" back to a private driveway with no connection to N .
Triphammer Road .
• The origin of parcel 37. 1 -6-3 .361 should be researched and made known to the Planning Board .
• • As suggested in my previous review letters , the Tompkins County Highway Department will need
to be involved in all aspects of the intersection planning and should be consulted early in this
design process . Written comments should be received prior to the preparation of preliminary
subdivision documents.
• The Tompkins County Health Department should complete their soils investigation with the
developer and provide the Town a copy of the site suitability report before lot configurations are
finalized .
• Based on the site topography a stormwater management practice may be necessary for the
southern 1 /3rdof the property ( Lots 9- 16). The other; two "retention areas" shown are adjacent to
or including existing water courses. Permanent water quality practices for the new development
should be segregated from the upstream watershed conveyances.
• To reiterate , the development is within the Town's proposed Sewer Benefit District and would be
a property to initially receive sewer service once the district is established . If the schedule of this
project requires installation of on-site septic systems then we' ll want to negotiate easements for
future sanitary sewer main routes on and through this parcel .
Feel free to contact me with any questions . Thank you .
Sincerely,
4 t�
