Nancy Loncto called the Planning Board Meeting to order lat 7 : 15 PM .
Chairman - Bud Shattuck, Deputy Town Supervisor
Mr. Shattuck explained to all that it had been a couple of years since the two boards had a joint
meeting and felt the time had come to share Town Board ideas/concerns with the Planning Board.
Items both Boards have in common for Discussion :
1 . Comprehensive Plan
2 . Zoning specifically changes for density
• 3 . Empire Zones/heights
4 . Sewer
1
5 . Water Districts/Water Regulations
6 . Overall Growth to include the RA
Increase Density
South end of Town needs to be reviewed for rezoning as there is a lot of open land that will be
available once the Sewer goes through.
"Circuit Rider"
Mr. Shattuck went on to explain that the Town has spoken with the County Planning Department in
regards to bringing in a "Circuit Rider" to help The Code Enforcement Office and the Planning
Board with processing time for major projects . A maximum of $ 3 , 000 . 00 will be spent on this
individual .
Lin Davidson stated he has dealt with documents from "Circuit Riders" and basically all they do is
change the words , and name. Advised the Boards to be careful .
Viola Miller has strong concerns with the County Planning Department interacting with the Town .
It was discussed that a joint interview would be held for the up- coming Circuit Rider position as
both boards would have a joint scope of work.
Sewer
Mr. Shattuck advised all the 1st of many Public In-Put Meetings will take place next Wednesday at
•
7 : 00 PM for all that are in the Sewer District .
Mr. Shattuck further explained to the Planning Members that the Town has been advised by the
County that the State is requiring the Municipalities to work cooperatively with their neighbors and
come into alignment with each other in order to receive funding. In addition the Lansing Sewer
Community has approached numerous businesses in the Community for donations .
Town Center Concept
B ud Shattuck explained that the Board should start thinking about how they want the Town Center
to fit in with the existing structures in the B1 District.
Lake Front District
Lakefront houses with Septic Systems soon will be required by the State to be pumped out. Once
this happens there will be more Lakefront requests coming before the Planning Board . The Town
B oard will support the Planning Board with any Zoning changes they make in that district.
D avid Herrick, P.E .- Sewer Overview
Mr. Herrick gave a brief overview of the proposed Sewer District.
The following Map was presented .

Mr. Herrick proceeded to explain that the red area is ultimately tel the area that could receive sewer
service over a 20 year plan period. The green area will be the area that will initially be provided
access to a sewer main with the initial project. Mr. Herrick further stated they are looking to pick up
•
density in areas where it provides an economical benefit to '. do so .
Housing
J
Connie Wilcox, Town Council person is on The Tompkins County Better Housing Committee. Mrs .
Wilcox further stated a lot of surveys have been preformed; and people are willing to move to
Lansing if they offer "affordable housing". Currently affordable houses are in the $ 140,000 range.
Empire Zones G
The areas are as follows : Off the end of the Fly Zone at the Airport, The Warren Road Business Park
and the Business Park behind the Town Hall . Nancy Loncto requested that the Town Board,
specifically the Liaison provide the Planning Board Members with a copy of the Empire Zone Map
and overlays . I
Iu
SEAR Procedure Process
Nancy Loncto has met with Stephen Farkas and Guy Krogh with regards to the SEQR Process
failing. Mrs . Loncto feels this process must be cleaned up immediately. In addition to timing issues ,
Mr. Krogh was unsure whether the involved agencies werennotified for 239 N reviews, and in a
timely manner. Dead line dates must be met for the SEQR and EAF process . Public Hearings are
mandated for a positive SEQR, however, they are not required for EAF . As a practical matter having
a Public Hearing on an EAF is the best way to prove that maximum Public In-put has been taken.
Final approval of the Preliminary Plat is the point at which SEQR must apply. The Preliminary Plat
• triggers all of the major reviews . The Final Plat is more of a technical issue. Mr. Krogh went on to
explain that the Planning Board can have the SEQR & the Preliminary Plat approval Public
,
•
•J
•
Hearing(s ) on the same date, however, they can not holdall 3 to include the Final approval . Mr.
Krogh went on to explain how the Planning Board should be dealing with Paper Roads . Paper roads
should be dedicated on the Subdivision Nat and memorialized by an easement, with formal
dedication of the property to occur when the road is built.. When preparing a Notice of Public
Hearing, the timing issues can be very critical . SEQR has time lines that are unrelated to the Town
Law . SEQR requires 14 days Public Notice Law . Mr. Krogh further instructed the Code
Enforcement Office not to accept the EAF until all information has been satisfied by the Planning
Board . The Final EAF must be submitted within 20 days of the SEQR Public Hearing. It was
suggested that a Checklist be provided to the Developer of additional items that will need to be
submitted prior to the Final EAF acceptance, and provide a date for e Developer' s deadline.
