Solar Arrays

RESOLUTION PB 15-10
RESOLUTION DETERMINING ENVIRONMENTAL SIGNIFICANCE OF PROPOSED TOMPKINS COUNTY TRUST COMPANY ATM SITE PLAN
WHEREAS, an application was made by S.E.E. Associates (Andy Sciarabba, Agent) for site plan approval for the proposed construction of a drive-up ATM Machine and parking area improvements
located at 3109 North Triphammer Road, Town of Lansing, New York, Tax Parcel #37.1-3-1.22, consisting of approximately 1.75 acres in the B2 Commercial Zone as located upon and within
an existing commercially developed site, and the proposal is to add a free standing drive–up ATM Bank Machine, illuminated signage, 700± sf of additional asphalt pavement, and relocated
parking stalls to accommodate changed traffic flows; and
WHEREAS, as less than one acre is disturbed by this application, the owner will be required to complete a Basic SWPPP for the immediately affected area and have the same approved by
the Highway Department before building permits are issued; and
WHEREAS, a § 239 referral was duly made to County Planning, which noted no official comments on the site plan or the environmental review thereof; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Lansing Planning Board, in performing its reviewing agency functions in conducting an environmental review in accordance with Article 8 of the New York State Environmental
Conservation Law (SEQRA): (i) pursued its thorough review of the project and the Applicant’s completed SEAF, as well as a review of all other documents prepared and submitted with respect
to this proposed action; and (ii) thoroughly analyzed the potential relevant areas of environmental concern of the project to determine if the proposed action may have any moderate or
significant adverse impacts on the environment, including the criteria identified in 6 NYCRR Section 617.7(c); and (iii) reviewed the SEAF on the record; and
WHEREAS, each identified potential environmental impact was analyzed and duly considered by the Planning Board in relation to the question of whether any potential environmental impacts
were so probable of occurring or so significant as to require a positive declaration, and after weighing the above and all other potential impacts arising from or in connection with
this project, and after also considering: (i) the probability of each potential impact occurring; (ii) the duration of each potential impact; (iii) the irreversibility of each potential
impact, including permanently lost resources of value; (iv) whether each potential impact can or will be controlled or mitigated by permitting or other processes; (v) the regional consequence
of the potential impacts; (vi) the potential for each impact to be or become inconsistent with the Town’s master plan or Comprehensive Plan and local needs and goals; and (vii) whether
any known objections to the Project relate to any of the identified potential impacts, the Planning Board found that these factors did not cause any potential impact to be or be likely
to become a moderate or significant impact such that a negative declaration will be issued.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS:
1.After consideration of the potential environmental impacts, including those reviewed in accord with 6 NYCRR § 617.7(c), the Planning Board finds that the proposed action of approving
the site plan for the S.E.E. Associates proposed construction of a drive-up ATM Machine and parking area improvements located at 3109 North Triphammer Road, Town of Lansing, will have
no moderate or significant negative environmental consequences or impacts.
2.This declaration is made in accord with SEQRA and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, and accordingly, the Planning Board of the Town of Lansing, based upon: (i) its thorough review
of the SEAF, and any and all other documents prepared and submitted with respect to this proposed action and its environmental review; (ii) its thorough review of the potential relevant
areas of environmental concern to determine if the proposed action may have any moderate or significant adverse impact on the environment, including, but not limited to, the criteria
identified in 6 NYCRR § 617.7(c); and (iii) its completion of the SEAF, including the findings noted therein (if any, and which findings are incorporated herein as if set forth at length),
hereby makes a negative determination of environmental significance (“Negative Declaration”) in accordance with SEQRA for the above referenced proposed actions, and determines that an
Environmental Impact Statement is therefore not required.
3.A Responsible Officer of the Planning Board of the Town of Lansing is hereby authorized and directed to complete and sign, as required, the determination of significance, confirming
the foregoing Negative Declaration, which fully completed and signed SEAF and determination of significance shall be incorporated by reference in these Resolutions.

Site Plan & SEQR Review, Applicant: Michael Withers, Can and Bottle Redemption Center, 3100 N. Triphammer Road, Tax Parcel # 37.1-2-23.1
Michael Withers, Applicant and Leasing Agent, David Huckle appeared before the Board for Site Plan Review. Mr. Withers, has a lease to utilize the existing barn at this site and is
requesting site plan approval for the expansion of the existing parking lot at 3110 N. Triphammer Road, Tax Parcel #37.1-2-23.1, B2 Commercial Zone. This is currently a vacant structure
that will be used primarily as an individual person drop off and interior storage of deposit bottles and cans. The site consists of 9.7 +/- acres site and two existing driveway accesses
onto the site. The proposed parking expansion will be located to the north of the existing driveway entrance. The site will utilize the existing driveway curb cut from N. Triphammer
Road. There will be very little site disturbance so very little impact is anticipated for storm water issues. The total disturbed area is approximately 0.03+/- acres. There will be
non-illuminated signage located near N. Triphammer Road and also a sign mounted on the building. The existing stone boulders will be moved to allow for the expansion of 6 parking spaces
(1 HC). Periodic tractor trailers will be on the site to pick up the beverage bottles and cans and the site can accommodate this truck circulation with the existing loop around the existing
buildings.
Thomas Ellis inquired if the owner planned on repairing the front of the building. Mr. Withers indicated lumber has been purchased to make repairs on the building.
Lynn Day, Zoning Officer states he has told the owner and the leasee they must make the building weather tight.
David Huckle, Leasing Agent from Pyramid Brokerage states the owner is well aware of the various modifications that must be made to the property.
Mr. Withers currently plans to be open for business during the daylight hours, 5-6 days per week.
According to Mr. Withers, all storage will be kept indoors. A dumpster will be located between the two buildings that are owned by Mr. Rendano and shared with both buildings.
Landscaping will be minimal. Flowers will be planted under the sign.

Proposed changes to the Communications Tower Local Law
The Board briefly discussed the proposed changes. It was the Chairman’s call to not proceed any further until Legal Counsel is present for discussion.
Consideration for Waiver on Special Permit Conditions
Mike Long, A.I.C.P. brought to the Board’s attention that Ibe Jonah has approached John Young with respect to renting his Soccer Field (behind the Rink) for a Tournament in September.
This would be an adult Tournament, ages ranging from 30 yrs. to 50 yrs. Mr. Long states previously, the Planning Board recommended to the Town Board that they place an age limit on
the Special Permit. Mr. Long states he believes that could create legal issues for the Town, as you can’t discriminate due to a person’s age.
Lynn Day, Zoning Officer states he has spoken with the Manager, Russ at the Rink and they have no problem with people using their parking lot over the Labor Day weekend for this event.
A brief discussion occurred with respect to the original condition that was placed on the Site Plan approval with regards to limiting the age of the players. It was Mr. Young’s request
for that condition and the Planning Board went along with it.
Thomas Ellis stated at the time of the proposal, recreational fields were not allowed in that district. However, now they are by Special Use Permits.
Richard Prybyl made a motion to recommend to the Town Board that they grant a Special Use Permit for one year with the condition that all parking be located in the Rink Parking lot and
not on Waterwagon Road or NY Rt. 34. Larry Sharpsteen seconded the motion and it was carried by the following roll call vote:

Ag Plan
Thomas Ellis inquired what the Ag Plan offers to the Town if it gets approved. Mr. Ellis feels the Town has spent a tremendous amount of time and energy on this.
