The property for the house includes the dirt road,which turns into a walking path and becomes part of the Westhaven Preserve.The Lufts own property adjacent to her mother's property, to the east of the walking path. Ms.Terwilliger and Mr. Olszewski are proposing to purchase the property from the Lufts and split ownership of the road, attaching half to the 620 Elm Street property and half to the proposed new parcel.They'll need variances because they want to create two flag lots, and build a house on the new property for themselves. Mr.Wilcox said this is unusual because we have a trust and an estate as the legal entities. Asked whether there was documentation to indicate the applicants have the legal right to speak for the entities involved, Ms. Balestra said we make all applicants sign an owner certification letter.The attorney for the torn has reviewed that letter and informed staff that it needs to be revised it to include the signatures of estate trustees and authorized corporations. Ms.Terwilliger said she is the sole trustee of the Elizabeth B Terwilliger trust, so she has authority to make decisions. She also signed the certification. Mr. Luft said his mother has signed papers to submit to the surrogate court declaring him as executor. His father had the property only in his name, didn't put his mom's name on the property, didn't transfer it to his trust, and passed away 12 years ago. They just found out that in order to sell the property, it has to go through probate. That shouldn't affect tonight's hearing because it's only to divide the road, which is solely owned by the Terwilligers. Once the road is divided, half of the road will be attached to the property in his father's name so it has frontage onto Elm Street. In 1984, after buying the property, his parents went to the zoning board to see if they could build on the property even though it didn't have road frontage. The zoning board said yes. Based on that, they spent $11,000 to extend the sewer line up from Westhaven Road, and that was the sewer line used subsequently to connect EcoVillage to town sewer. Later,when they went to sell the property, they were told that the ZBA didn't have the authority to make that decision.The only way his family will Planning Board Meeting 04.17.2018 Page 2 of 9 be able to sell the property, even at a loss due to the investment in the sewer line based on the town's misinformation, is to create a flag lot for road frontage. Ms. Brock asked what has been signed that will give him the authority to make decisions. Mr. Luft said his mother is signing something that will forgo her being the executor to the will.The only property left to be distributed is this real estate. He will submit documentation to the surrogate court to get testamentary letters to make him the official executor. He's been told it takes somewhere between six weeks and two months to get the letters issued. But for the decision being made tonight, the Luft property isn't involved. Ms. Brock said it does involve the property because half the road becomes attached to the Luft property. Ms.Terwilliger said that transaction won't be completed until they sign the paperwork to purchase the property. Their attorney, Randy Marcus, is drawing up a bill of sale with a contingency to the effect that they are not buying the property until permission is granted. Ms. Brock suggested making the approval contingent on submission of letters of testamentary showing Mr. Luft being the property owner. To a question from Ms. Fogarty, Mr.Wilcox said we're dividing that 50-foot-wide strip in half.The west side goes to the Luft property to the north and the east side stays with 620 Elm Street to the south.What about 624 Elm Street Extension? They have a maintenance agreement on that strip. When and if the subdivision is approved,what does that do to the ability of 624 to use the road to get to Elm Street Extension, and what part of the road can they use? Can they only use the part on the west side that abuts their property? Ms.Terwilliger said their attorney is drawing up a new, three-party agreement,but their access will remain unchanged.The agreement will not change from what it is now; they'll have use of the entire 50-foot-wide strip. Ms. Brock said the maintenance agreement says they have a deeded right-of-way. So their easement to use the 50-foot right-of-way does not come from the maintenance agreement; it comes out of the 1950 deed, and there is no filed survey map. She had to rely on things filed after that: the 1994 survey map and a 2008 survey map that both reference the 50-foot-wide right-of-way assessed to Terwilliger. Without the benefit of a map that was not filed in 1951 and without the benefit of the abstract of title, it appears 624's easement came in 1951 and it runs with the land.We can trust the 2008 map prepared by TG Miller. Mr. Luft said the road was put in in the 1950s by Homer DeGraff. It was set on a 50-foot right-of-way because that was the town's standard at the time. It was put in according to the town engineer's plan, but before the road was deeded to the torn, the torn changed the standard to a 60-foot right-of-way and did not accept the road from Mr. DeGraff.The maintenance agreement was written up when the 50-foot right-of-way was still owned by the DeGraff family; unfortunately, the roadway had been offered to his father to get attached to his property, but he didn't want the liability. Planning Board Meeting 04.17.2018 Page 3 of 9 Ms. Meier Swain asked how often flag pole lots are created. Ms. Brock responded that the ZBA will have to look at this because it's not meeting some of the requirements for a lot. She's seen situations where applicants have wanted to create flag pole lots to squeeze in more development, and people felt they were squeezing these lots into people's back yards and the ZBA said no. She can't speak to what the ZBA will decide, but this is a different situation because of its history and because it's a landlocked parcel. They'll look at all the circumstances and weigh the statutory criteria for an area variance to make a determination. PB Resolution No. 2018-011: SEQR, Preliminary and Final Subdivision Approval, Terwilliger 2- Lot Subdivision, 620 Elm Street Extension, Tax Parcel No.'s 29.4-12 and 28.4-28.7 Moved by Yvonne Fogarty; seconded by Liebe Meier Swain WHEREAS: 1.

The proposal involves subdividing off a 0.57 +/-acre strip of land from 620 Elm Street Extension (Tax Parcel No. 29.-4-12)which will be consolidated with the adjacent vacant property (Tax Parcel No. 28.4-28.7) to provide access to Elm Street Extension. Tax Parcel No. 28.4-28.7 is currently a landlocked parcel. Elizabeth B.Terwilliger Trust and Estate of Julian D. Luft, Owners; Susan B.Terwilliger &Michael F. Olszewski, Applicants Mr.Wilcox opened the public hearing at 7:33 p.m. Barbara Warland, Westhaven Road, lives directly below the land. She's glad to hear that the plans are to keep the wonderful preserve,which is home to many birds.They've lived there since 1985 and known that that was a landlocked parcel, and that there was the possibility of development there some day. She's only concerned that drainage be done properly because they live downhill. Mr.Wilcox closed the public hearing at 7:36. He said what's before the board is only a subdivision. If and when they apply for a building permit, engineering will be responsible for making sure the drainage is done properly. He is generally not in favor of flag lots. He voted against one on South Hill because they wanted to create a new lot.This is different in that it will get rid of a landlocked parcel. Its purpose is not to create a lot,but to solve a problem.

Vote Ayes: Wilcox, Collins, Haefeli, Beach, Fogarty, Meier Swain, Bosak AGENDA ITEM SEQR Determination: Babcock/Finger Lakes Land Trust 2-Lot Subdivision, 230 Culver Road Ms. Balestra, representing the Torn of Ithaca, explained that the Finger Lakes Land Trust purchased the land and negotiated with the town to take approximately half the property. The town would acquire the 38 acres for future preservation.The Land Trust would retain the remaining 36 acres; their plan is to possibly sell the property to someone to build a single home with the condition that it then have a permanent conservation easement. It's a very desirable piece of land in that it connects to the Coy Glen Unique Natural Area and many of our preserves. Mr. Bosak asked why we're doing SEQR.The torn board has already designated themselves as lead agency, done the environmental review, and declared a neg dec. Planning Board Meeting 04.17.2018 Page 6 of 9 Ms. Brock responded that for an uncoordinated review, each agency that has an action does their own review. If the planning board finds there's environmental significance, it doesn't affect the town board's action, but it affects the planning board's action. Ms. Balestra added that it's the same SEQR; the SEQR that was prepared encompasses all of the actions of all the various boards required to take action. PB Resolution No. 2018-013: SEQR, Preliminary and Final Subdivision Approval, Babcock/FLLT 2-Lot Subdivision, 230 Culver Road, Tax Parcel No. 31.4-14.2 Moved by John Beach; seconded by Fred Wilcox WHEREAS: 1.

The proposal involves subdividing the 73.63 +/-acre parcel into a 35.64 +/-acre parcel(Parcel I) to be sold with a conservation easement in place to limit future development to one home and a Planning Board Meeting 04.17.2018 Page 7 of 9 37.99 +/-acre parcel(Parcel II) to be sold to the Town of Ithaca as a preserve. Finger Lakes Land Trust, Owner; Town of Ithaca, Applicant Mr.Wilcox opened the public hearing at 8 p.m. Mike Davenport, 214 Culver Road, said he's lived in the area his whole life. He was talking to Andrew Zepp, director of the Land Trust, about the 35 acres they intend to sell with the option of building a single dwelling. Mr. Zepp said they are reconsidering selling that property because of the views. Five or six acres of that property run right next to Mr. Davenport's house; that could provide a buffer between his property and a potential future house. It's a flat field that doesn't have any views, and he would consider buying it with the stipulation that it be forever wild. He'd like to plant fruit trees and do some farming,but not build any structures. Mr.Wilcox said that would be between Mr. Davenport and the Finger Lakes Land Trust; if the planning board approves the subdivision, nothing would preclude that from happening. Mr. Davenport said his neighbor also doesn't want any building on that particular plot. This would just give him a buffer between his land and any home built on the land should the Land Trust choose to allow development. Ms. Brock said Mr. Zepp isn't necessarily proposing a house, just that if there is development, that would be the maximum allowed. Elizabeth Salon said she owns property right across the road. She attended the meeting to hear what the plans are since she shares her neighbor's concerns.There's no public water or sewer, so if a house is built, it will require water and sewer and this could affect existing wells and springs. Mr.Wilcox said what's in front of the board is a subdivision of land, not a permit to build a house. The town engineer is responsible, when granting a building permit, to make sure those issues are dealt with correctly. Ms. Brock suggested that Mr. Davenport talk to Mr. Zepp and explore creative solutions, such as asking for right of first refusal on that piece of land if they do decide to offer it for sale. Mr.Wilcox closed the public hearing at 8:12 p.m. Ms. Brock pointed out for the record that the existing house at 250 Culver Road and the spring that services the house are on different parcels.While it's disconcerting that someone's spring is not on their property, it's already existing, and this subdivision doesn't change that in any way.
