Conditional Permit (Pending ZBAj
PZO Weber advised the Board that the Zoning Board of Appeals had, at its meeting immediately before
this one, granted the applicant a use variance to allow for a car lot and woodworking shop, with the
request that this Board act as Lead Agency under SEQRA.
Chair Wickwire read from the Cortland County Planning Board's Resolution No. 15-36 of 21 December
2015 which recommended denial of the application for a Use Variance and a Conditional Permit "based
on .there being no survey map submitted by. the .applicant to verify the distance" of the right-of-way for
US Route 11. PZO Weber explained that the requested map indicating the ROW location had been
submitted to the ZBA. The Planning Board reviewed the aerial photo and Mr. Sanford answered their
questions. He stated that the NYSDOT had no problem with what he proposed as he no longer plans on
parking in front of the building.
Member Newell asked about the proposed 14 ft. by 20 ft. woodworking shop; there was no problem with
what is being planned and its location. The shop would not be open to the public at all, but would be
used by the applicant's brother, Jon, for his woodworking business: storage of materials, working on
carpentry projects being performed offsite, etc. There is a dust collector installed on the premises.
Chair Wickwire asked the applicant to come back with a simple Site Plan indicating where vehicles will
be parked on the sight. Member Renzi agreed that the Site Plan was needed.
At the end of the discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to approve the Conditional
Permit for the proposed woodshop, as requested, with the Conditional Permit for the proposed
used car lot postponed to allow additional time to receive the requested information from the
applicant. The motion was seconded by Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:

on the drawings accompanying the application. The main building itself makes up the fourth side. The
proposed addition would "clean up the present mess." The building would be placed on the asphalt.

With no further discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to approve the Conditional

OLD BUSINESS
Leonidas Group of Virgil. LLC. Applicant/Robert Ferris. Reputed Owner - Starr Road - TM #96.10-
01-19.100 - Proposed PUD (Planned Unit Development)
Chair Wickwire recognized Attorney Mike Shafer, representing the applicant who was seeking approval
of a Residential PUD, as indicated on the revised Preliminary Site Plan received by Board members.
Attorney Shafer explained the revisions made, including reducing the number of dwelling units from 66
to 50.
Chair Wickwire asked the attorney why a Planned Unit Development? Attorney Shafer responded that if
not a PUD, every individual unit would have to meet Town setbacks, etc. Homeowners' fees would also
probably increase. Member Nick Renzi reviewed his comments regarding the project. Member
DelVecchio thought that the applicant had made good progress. Chair Wickwire commented that this
revised project should go back to Walt Kalina, PE, of Clough Harbour Associates for his review. Member
Renzi stated that Pat Reidy of County Soil & Water should also review what has been submitted.
Attorney Shafer responded that there has been an initial meeting between Mr. Reidy and the project's
engineer, Tim Buhl, but not since the revisions were made. The attorney was also concerned with
timing of the project through the required reviews. Chair Wickwire suggested the Board set a Public
Hearing for their next meeting.
A motion was then made by Member Chris Newell to set a Public Hearing on the proposed PUD
project for 29 March 2016 at 7:30 p.m. The motion was seconded by Member John DelVecchio,

Matt Vredenburah. Avvlicant/Dr. Chris Smith. Reputed Owner - 3773 Luker Road - TM #95.08-,
01-18.000 - Site Plan for Proposed Medical Office Building
(Note: A Sketch Plan Conference regarding this project was held 26 January 2016. Reference is made
to those Minutes for additional information.)
Chair Wickwire recognized Jim Owen and Matt Vredenburgh. Member Renzi commented on their "very
good drawings." He then reviewed the comments he had prepared, as follows:
1. Reference Site Plan drawina number L-200.
The location of the building behind the stormwater management area and the parking lot
detracts from the architectural beauty of the office building. The applicant should review Article
XXIII titled "Design and Development Guidelines" in the Cortlandville Town Code. There were
probably good reasons to situate the building as proposed but I suggest that the
applicant/architect look at the referenced code section and incorporate the suggested guidelines
that are applicable and appropriate within the budget of the project.
b. I believe that the ballooned items should reference L201 not L202 or drawing L-201 should be
- changed to L-202
c. There appears to be no lighting in the parking lot or walkways. What lighting will be provided
and where will it be located?
d. Snow storage areas should be designated and shown on the drawing.
e. If signage is planned please show on L-200 with details on L-201.
2. Reference Stormwater Manaaement Plan L-400
a. The Planning Board requires a letter from Cortland Soil and Water accepting the Stormwater
Management System design.
b. A maintenance plan for the stormwater management system should be submitted to Soil and
Water and the Planning Board.
In response to 1. c, the applicant will submit lighting cut sheets.

PUBLIC HEARING
Leonidas Group of Virgil. LLC. Applicant/Robert Ferris. Reputed Owner - Starr Road - TM #96.10-
01-19.100 - Proposed PUD (Planned Unit Develoomentl
The Public Hearing was opened at 7:37 p.m. by Chairperson Katherine Wickwire. The Board Secretary
read aloud the Legal Notice as published in the Cortland Standard on 17 March 2016, as follows:
PURSUANT TO ARTICLE XI, SECTION 178-57 B, OF THE CODE OF THE TOWN OF
CORTLANDVILLE:
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN thata public hearing before the Town of Cortlandville Planning
Board, Cortland County, New York, at the Raymond G. Thorpe Municipal Building, 3577
Terrace Road, in the Town of Cortlandville, New York, to be held on Tuesday, March 29, 2016
at 7:30 p.m., regarding the application of Leonidas Group of Virgil, LLC, for a Residential PUD
located on the south side of Starr Road, Cortland, New York, Tax Map #96.10-01-19.100.
Katherine S. Wickwire, Chairperson
Cortlandville Planning Board
3577 Terrace Road
Cortland, New York 13045
(Note: Proof of Publication has been placed on file for the record.)
Chair Wickwire recognized Attorney Mike Shafer, representing the applicant, who acknowledged
receipt of 15 March 2016 comments from Walter Kalina, PE, of Clough Harbour Associates, the
engineering firm who is assisting the Planning Board in their review of this major project. In response
to Mr. Kalina's comments, Attorney Shafer stated that the applicant has entirely reworked the
proposed PUD plan. He explained the revisions that were made, i.e., reduction in number of units,
and relocation of the road to accommodate better water retention. These revisions, he believed, now
bring the proposed PUD within the guidelines contained within the Town's Ordinance. Attorney Shafer
commented that if a positive recommendation for the PUD is made to the Town Board, then the major
work would start: Site Plan Review, SEQRA Review, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, etc.
Chair Wickwire then asked if there was anyone present who would like to speak regarding the
proposed Planned Unit Development; there were, as follows:
Mike Reagan - 1181 Starr Road - Lives across from subject property/ project. Road now
located in front of his porch instead of being lined up with Abdallah. Concerned about his
family's welfare, traffic and pedestrians. Concerned with cars turning left from Starr Road onto
project's road; cars swerving to miss turning vehicle may wipe out his mailbox or even himself
while getting his mail. Headlights will point at his house. Concerned about protecting his well
and the runoff.
Jill Holl - 25 Abdallah Avenue - Disappointed to see that new plan eliminates single-family
dwellings. Any development here should be only single-family homes to fit in with rest of the
neighborhood.
Lisa Foster - 3596 Parti Drive - Opposes project. Reduction of units is not significant; it's
always the same as it was. A lot of units on very small parcel of land. Opposes the PUD.
Surrounding area is all single-family homes. How would you feel if these buildings were right
next to you? Or in your back yard? It doesn't conform to the existing neighborhood that we
have there.
Chris Tier - 34 Abdallah Avenue - Agrees with Lisa Foster. Every one of these developments
are looking right in our back windows. Don't agree with it. Lived here for 54 years. Asked how
the drainage issue would be addressed as far as the Town of Cortlandville goes; this has been
Page 2 of 12
APR 2 0 2016 11
(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Public Hearing & Regular Meeting Minutes 29 March 2016
an on-going problem. Had very light winter this year, so not so much. (Chair Wickwire
advised that the Public Hearing was to consider the Board's recommendation to the Town Board
regarding the PUD, and not the project itself.) Mr. Tier continued: this property should not have
that muchstuff put on it. Would be okay with single tract. What about the Fire Department?
At this point, Chair Wickwire again attempted to explain that "right now, we are looking at whether
this qualifies for a PUD. We are making a recommendation—that's all we're doing right now—to
the Town on whether we feel a PUD should be granted. The Town will make a decision whether
they feel a PUD will be granted. Once that PUD is granted, if it is, then they have to do all the
maps, they have to do all the drainage, they have to do the SEQRA process. It will go back to our
engineers at Clough Harbour. I mean, it's a long process. And there's about two more public
hearings that will happen before _the final. plans are even—we're actually looking at the final
plans. "
Mr. Tier continued: So whole package gets put together correctly. You need to talk to Sheriff
and Undersheriff. (Chair Wickwire responds that Fire Department, Health Department, Soil &
Water, etc. are always involved.) Mr. Tier offered to tell a "short story." (Chair Wickwire
advised, vehemently, that he was not giving this Board any credit for all of the work that they do
to make sure that any and all involved agencies are contacted.)
Martv Wersi�y, (sp?) - 29 Abdallah (did not sijzn Attendance Sheet) - Feels that "you just cut us
off." First time I've heard of any agencies being contacted. Concerned about bonding; how will
place "upkeep itself' if Homeowner's Association fails? These things get approved and then go
by the wayside. Put the "silly thing down the road west of the apartment complex that's
already there. There's plenty of land there. Nobody across the street to complain." Concerned
about drainage. People have lakes in front yard in springtime. Town's engineering firm has
said it's not adequate and the rain gardens would probably fail. Concerned with maintenance.
Also concerned with traffic caused by development.
Member Renzi attempted to explain the process to the public present. There's a long way to go. Even if
Planning Board recommends to the Town Board that this project qualifies for a Planned Unit
Development, it does not mean it's a stamp of approval; it's the beginning of a long process that involves
the County Planning, Soil & Water, Health Department, Fire Department, Police Department, etc. This
project is complicated and will not take place overnight. Walmart Supercenter was a four-year project.
He went on to say that everything, including the Homeowner's Association, will be looked at in detail by
a lot of diligent people on this Board and the County boards.
Chair Wickwire, once again, after being asked by Mr. Wersig about a bond, reiterated that "if this comes
back as a project," then there will be another public hearing. People are welcome to give us their input,
they can write letters. At this meeting, all the Board is determining is what recommendation they will
make to the Town Board. She then asked Attorney Shafer to explain to Mr. Wersig about a PUD, which
he did very clearly, including regulations for Homeowners' Associations. PZO Bruce Weber then read
from the PUD Ordinance, Section 178-60 F, regarding a condition for a Performance Bond that can be
imposed by the Town Board.
The Public Hearing continued with:
Don Ferris (did not sign Attendance Sheet) - Brother of Robert Ferris, Reputed Owner - Mr.
Ferris gave background of subject property. Father bought property 54 years ago. PUDs are
encouraged to provide different types of residences and there's a need for this type of housing
in this community, especially retirees who are down -sizing. Single-family homes used to be
more in demand; not so much the case anymore. Proposed zone change to a PUD will help
developers satisfy the need for this type of a development.

(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Public Hearing & Regular Meeting Minutes 29 March 2016
John DemDsev - 1212 Starr Road - After any rainfall, anyone driving by his house will drive
through water. Town, within past couple of weeks, replaced drywells in next door neighbor's
yard; they are _slow getting around in the area. Very concerned about runoff from proposed
project. Present flooding due to grading done years ago. Concerned about traffic situation.
Subject property not suited for this type of project.
Jill Holl (2nd time) - Appreciated Mr. Ferris' comments about downsizing. She downsized into
small house on Abdallah. Doesn't see need for this type of development. Very strongly opposed
to project; houses should be the same as the rest of the neighborhood.
Mike Reaizan (2nd time) - Asked if PUD would have a private road. (Chair Wickwire responded
yes.) He asked Board to protect the devaluation of his property.
At this point, Member Renzi commented that nothing has been approved on this project, and he read
from Walt Kalina's letter of 14 March 2016 which reiterated all of the things involved in the review
process. (A copy of that letter has been placed on file for the record.)
Martv Wersia (sp?) - (2nd time) - Has Town's engineering firm looked at the changes that were
made? And can you share with us what they found? (Member Renzi advised that this four-page
letter is public information and is available from the Town. Member Newell added that this project
is being "massaged.") Mr. Wersig then added, "We're not gonna feel real good about this project
as a whole. And I guess I will leave you with that." And he left.
Town Attorney John Folmer made a response to Mr. Wersig's comments by stating, "I think that what is
being missed in the discussion this evening is that all that is being done at this point in time is to make
a determination as to whether the concept of a PUD is appropriate for this particular area. The
concept, then, would be either approved or not by the Town Board after its own public hearing, and
once that concept has been approved, the whole project comes back to this Board where all of the
things that people are concerned about, and that these people here are concerned about, get looked at
with a fine-toothed comb. And if you look at the letter from Clough Harbour, in particular with regard
to stormwater, Mr. Kalina says, We've noted previously that there is some concern with the use of rain
gardens. The use of appropriate stormwater management practices should be discussed in detail with
the applicant during the Site Review,' not during the conceptual review that we're in now, but during
the Site Review. I just think that you need to understand that all we're talking about here is, is the
concept of a PUD something that looks like it would fit here if it were done aFcording to what
engineering standards would apply? That's all. I just want to be sure that we understand the limited
purpose of what we're doing at this point in time."
Lisa Foster (2nd time) - Thanked Attorney Folmer for his clarification. Thanked the Board for
what they do. Still thinks a PUD is not appropriate in this area. (Chair Wickwire responded
that this is an allowed use in this area. Board still has to go through this process. Right now, we
have to decide if this PUD should be allowed and make our recommendation to. the Town Board
who, in turn, will hold their own public hearing and make the decision. Write a letter to us and/or
the Town Board and let us know how you feel. We do our best and hire engineers to do what we
are not qualified to do.)
Timothy C. Buhl, PE, the applicant's engineer, explained the PUD process and how he designs projects
such as these.
Donna Johnson - 7 Louise Drive - Asked if project could be done without multi -family homes.
These homes will change the neighborhood. Project is not viable, according to Mr. Kryger at
last meeting, if only single-family homes are there. Neighbors need to get together and organize
so that if PUD is approved they can be ready to present their objections to this project. If this
isn't done, project will probably go through.

(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Public Hearing & Regular Meeting Minutes 29 March 2016
Chair Wickwire then recognized Al Kryger, representing the applicant, who explained why they want'to-
have a PUD. A PUD will result in more green space and be more aesthetically pleasing than strip
I' development on -each side of a road up the center.
Toni D. Williams-- 1238 Isabel Drive - This development will change the landscape of our
properties and the values, potentially. We'd like to hear assurances that your Planning Board
is going to pass on to the Town Board our major concerns. Traffic is a big concern. Where is
assurance from the Town that if it gets passed, who's going to address the road situation?
There are cars and pedestrians to be concerned about, just like on McLean Road.
Robert Ferris, Property Owner - He's been in real estate business 40 years. Owns. property
under 'contract to Leonidas - Group. - In area all the time. - Hardly ever -cars on Abdallah - or
Levydale except parked cars; have photos taken every two hours on Abdallah and Levydale:
There's no racetrack. Concept developers want to create is really needed in this community.
Proposed project totally funded by. private financing. Proposed project, will help -correct present
substandard housing in- the marketplace. Proposed project has received positive review twice
from Cortland County Planning Department/ Board. He then explained to -those present how
the process. proceeds. (Note: Mr. Ferris' written remarks have been placed- ori file for the
record.)
Jill Holl (3rd time) - If this project already conforms to the R2 District, why -are we here? (Mr.
Kryger responded that it was 'flexibility in design." PZO Weber added .that the R2 District does
not allow multi family dwellings, but with a PUD this would be allowed.)
With everyone heard who wished to be heard, the Public Hearing
was closed by Chair Wickwire
at 8:47 p.m.
REGULAR MEETING

Leonidas Group of Virgil, LLC, Applicant/Robert Ferris. Reputed Owner - Starr Road - TM #96.10-
01-19.100 - Proposed PUD (Planned Unit Development]
Member Renzi felt the application for a PUD was complete. Member John Finamore asked Mr. Kryger
what was the reason for moving the road in the proposed project, and Mr. Kryger explained that the
County thought that if the proposed road could not be lined up perfectly with the other road (Abdallah
Avenue), then the developer was better off putting more distance between them. Chair Wickwire advised
that the Board will take another look at this later.
At the close of the discussion, a motion was made by Member Renzi that, based upon Clough
Harbour Associates' letter dated 15 March 2016, page 2, the Town of Cortlandville Planning Board
recommends to the Town Board that the submittals provided do meet General Development
Regulations, Section 178-54, which qualifies as a PUD. The motion was seconded by Member
Newell, with the vote recorded as follows:

(It is noted for the record that the applicant had been granted a Use Variance for a proposed auto
detailing business at the 23 February 2016 ZBA meeting. However, the applicant's representative was
not present at last month's Planning Board meeting to answer any questions, so it was postponed until
this meeting.)
Chair Wickwire acknowledged receipt of a 23 March 2016 letter to the Board from John Woodward
regarding this project. One of Mr. Woodward's concerns was the hours of operation of the proposed
business, including Saturday afternoons and Sundays. He also requested that this Board limit detailing
and washing of cars to 25 cars per week; a copy of this letter has been placed on file for the record.
Mr. Brian Malchak, owner of the business, stated that the hours are Monday thru Friday, 8 a.m. to 5
p.m., and 8 a.m. till noon on Saturdays. The business is closed Saturday afternoons and Sundays.
Sometimes on Saturday afternoons or Sundays, he will stop by the business to do bookwork or move a
car that has been dropped off for service. There is no retail business going on at those times. Mr.
Malchak's attorney, William Pomeroy, clarified that if the Conditional Permit is approved, all
washing/ detailing of vehicles will be done out of sight, inside the storage building at the rear of the
property. He also noted that Mr. Malchak has greatly improved the appearance of the subject property
which has been noted by the neighbors at the ZBA's public hearing.
Member Renzi commented that he had visited the location and it was a "very neat place." Attorney
Pomeroy commented that if all cars are detailed onsite inside the storage building, the applicant will no
longer have to drive the vehicles offsite to a car wash in the winter, thus greatly lessening the traffic on
the street.

Leach Properties. LLC. Applicant/Reputed Owner - Lorings Crossing Road - NEW TM #77.00-13-
13.000 _ Request Town Planning Board to Act as Lead Agencv Under SEQRA
Chair Wickwire recognized Town Attorney John Folmer, who explained that, at its meeting before this
Board's, "The Town ZBA agreed to hold a rehearing, if necessary, in regard to the Leach application, but
indicated they were not going to schedule any such rehearing until after the Court has made its
determination on the pending litigation. The ZBA also made a request that this Board act as Lead Agency
for any procedure that is taken with regard to that application, should that situation develop that it
becomes necessary for that to happen. At the present moment, the variance which has been granted and is
the subject of the litigation is still in effect. It has not been restrained, it has not been enjoined.
Consequently, at this point, you don't have the jurisdiction to accept the designation of Lead Agency
because under the SEQRA regulations, in order to be a Lead Agency, you must be an agency that is (1)
involved and, secondly, that you have some permitting authority. At this moment you have no such
permitting authority because your permitting authority has already been exercised in connection with the
earlier proceeding. So I would suggest that you table this request until your next meeting, which will be

May 24th; because by that time we may a determination of the litigation, and you and the Zoning Board will
know what, if anything, you need to do with regard to the Leach application."
A motion was then made by Member John Finamore that the Town of Cortlandville Planning
Board tables until its 24 May 2016 meeting the ZBA's request that the Planning Board act as Lead
Agency under SEQRA. The motion was seconded by Member Newell, with the vote recorded as
follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None
Member Newell
Member Renzi
Member Finamore
Member DelVecchio
Motion carried.
This becomes Action #29 of 2016.
Town Attorney Folmer noted that by tabling this matter, should there be no determination from the
Court by 24 May 2016, the Board would not have to take any action at that time, but would simply
bring the matter to the table when such a determination is received.
OTHER BUSINESS
Pam Jenkins - Discussion
Chair Wickwire recognized Ms. Jenkins who advised those present that she was one of the Plaintiffs in
the Article 78, Jenkins v. Leach and Cortlandville, and that they expected the Court's decision "any day
now, and we expect that all of the variances and approvals ... granted to Mr. Leach will be annulled."
Ms. Jenkins continued reading from her prepared statement, which was a timeline contained in her 26
April 2016 (2:02 PM) email to Chair Wickwire and Board Members Newell, Renzi, Finamore, and
DelVecchio. Board members acknowledged they had received and read the email, a copy of which has
been placed on file for the record. Ms. Jenkins also displayed various enlarged photographs of portions
of the subject property.
Ms. Jenkins then reiterated her point that "the Army Corps of Engineers, on 314, sent Mr. Leach an email
and in it they wrote that he was allowed to fill only, only, only this little area directly beside his transfer
station, behind the transfer station, which he could absolutely positively reach by driving through his
commercial driveway. And here you can see again it's this area down here. But what Mr. Leach did
instead of just limiting himself to that is he built this huge road 24 feet wide and several hundred feet long.
It's a raised road, raised a few feet, and it's raised on both sides of the road. There did exist a small,
grassy path right there; actually the DOT sent me this because they weren't aware of the work that he did
in the right-of-way until after I filed a complaint with them. Now there's a 24 foot wide driveway there that
was not approved by anyone in this County. It was not on the original site plan, it was not okayed by the
Army Corps of Engineers and, in addition, as of yesterday morning the DEC told me, both from Syracuse
and Cortland, that Mr. Leach did not even apply for a SPDES Permit for all of the construction he did. Mr.
Walenski (sp?) was going to forward the complaint to Mr. Reggie Parker about that road that was built
without any permits at all. So here, this is the original on the site plan Mr. Leach was going to build a road
from Lorings Crossing to the back of his transfer station. However—and there would be a storage area
here—however, this end of this thing is under water and it is being investigated for several wetlands
throughout this area. Again, the Army Corps of Engineers said no disturbing any other land `til he makes
the determination about where the Federal wetlands are. But instead of waiting for that determination,
which has not been completed yet as of yesterday morning, Mr. Leach built this road into here, logged (?)
out this whole area and brought in fill which the Army Corps of Engineers directed him not to do. Okay?
So this is what the Lorings Crossing Road looked like before he took the vegetation out. This is what it
looked like in February. It's under water and it's still under water. So Mr. Leach stood in front of the judge
and told him . . . well we need the Lorings Crossing Road because it will make it safer. However, the
Page 3 of 5

M AY 2 .4 2016
(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Regular. Meeting Minutes 26 April 2016
Lorings Crossing Road is under water and, : having truck traffic coming off of Route 13 on: this site with
limited, um, ... no SEQRA study was done, no drainage study was done, no flooding study was done, no
traffic studies were done, but the road :was built. And, I can make it even briefer. this is the last picture
that we took last week of what the swamp looks like now with an effigy of a green person there and a
hanging green something or other.. So many. of us find, actually you know we don't find this funny at all.
This shows me that Mr. Leach can demonstrate complete and utter contempt for the laws that Cortlandville
officials must follow.. And so I refer you to the Town Law Manual of the Association of Towns 2016 which
states that, well there's a reference there to the appearance of impropriety. That's not our big concerns.
Nobody else in this County is allowed to build a road without approvals, without a site plan, without fees,
without Army Corps. of Engineer approval. But it happened and that's pretty. upsetting to us. So I'll just
finish up by saying I wonder if you could ask Mr. Leach exactly how many tons of fill he added to his
property which are off limits according to the Army Corps of Engineers, and I think you all know that we
could have gotten an injunction to, order Mr. Leach to stop the work, but we decided that we didn't need to
because we knew that all of the work he was doing, he was doing at his, own risk to lose. That was his
choice. He cannot now claim that he should be allowed to continue the project just because he chose to
ignore all of the.warning signs. Thank you."
No'Action Required.

Mr. Yaman asked the Board if it was possible to get approval of the Site Plan at this meeting, and Chair
Wickwire advised that the _application and attachments had to go to the Cortland County Planning
Department first for their approval/ recommendations. Once it comes back from the County, the process
will be facilitated. The Town Board would be holding their public hearing on the Aquifer Protection
District Special Permit at their July meeting. Chair Wickwire stated that they could ask the Town Board
to set the public hearing for the first meeting in July to help expedite the project. PZO Bruce Weber
suggested that the engineer compose a letter to the Town Board requesting that they set their public
hearing as soon as possible.
With no further comments, a motion was made by Member Newell to sent the Site Plan for the
proposed new eye care facility to the Cortland County Planning Department for their review. The

879 Route 13, LLC, Applicant/Reputed Owner - 3011 NYS Route 13 (former Ponderosa) - TM
#95.16-02-72.000 - Site Plan Review - Proposed Moe's Southwest Grill
PZO Weber advised, for informational purposes, that the rendering as submitted requires a variance, as
the illuminated sign itself and the tower extends above the wall of the building.
Chair Wickwire recognized Chris Calabro, representing the applicant who was seeking Site Plan approval
to change the fagade of the subject building (former Ponderosa) to reflect Moe's Southwest Grill, as
shown on the rendering submitted with the application. Member Renzi asked if what was submitted
was the only "rendition" used by Moe's; Mr. Calabro responded that the rendering was all that they had
provided to him. Member Renzi stated that he, personally, did not like it, preferring something a "little
more subdued, in keeping with this most important part of Cortlandville." Chair Wickwire commented
that both McDonald's and Applebee's had "toned down" their appearance to more closely reflect the
desired aesthetics for the Town, making them less "garish."
Member Newell stated it would be nice to see more fagade choices. Mr. Calabro said that he would
discuss this with Moe's to see what they could do. Member Renzi advised Mr. Calabro to read the
Design Guidelines contained in the Code to "obtain the flavor of what we're trying to do." PZO Weber
noted that the Town ZBA would be holding a public hearing for the variance on 31 May 2016; maybe
this Board would like to see what the ZBA's decision is before proceeding with the Site Plan Review; it
would also give the applicant time to ascertain if other fagades are available from Moe's. The Board did
like the stone shown in the rendering.
With no further discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to postpone Site Plan Review for
the proposed Moe's Southwest Grill until 28 June 2016 to allow the applicant time to provide
requested information. The motion was seconded by Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as
follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None
Member Newell
Member Renzi
Member Finamore
Member DelVecchio
Motion carried.
This becomes Action #33 of 2016.

i Suit-Kote Coruoration. Aunlicant/Reuuted Owner - 3715 US Route 11 (Polkville) -TM #s 97.02-01-
10.000 & 11.000 - Conditional Permit for Prouosed Construction Staging Area
Chair Wickwire recognized Ryan DuBois, representing the applicant who was seeking a Conditional
Permit for an already existing construction staging area on the property as shown on the Site Plan
accompanying the application. Chair Wickwire asked how this staging area got built without a permit?
Mr. DuBois stated that it was the applicant's error. A portion of this site is in the flood plain.
Chair Wickwire asked if the applicant had a letter from the NYSDOT regarding the driveway; they did
not, but they have filed the paperwork for same. The DOT, Mr. DuBois stated, did not think one was
necessary because they were already "operating off the current entrance on Route 11." PZO Weber
advised that a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan is also required. Mr. DuBois responded that he
had spoken to the DEC and they had a SWPPP for the site, as well as an individual SPDES for their tank
and quarry down there; they would operate off those current permits but, at the DEC's request, they will
get a "construction SWPP." He is pursuing this.
Chair Wickwire asked Mr. DuBois to show the Board what has been done on the site. He responded
that they have leveled out the ground with a dozer a couple of weeks ago and indicated the location on
the plan. An entrance was cut through the berm to connect with Route 11, and a gate has also been
installed. The driveway was once used for access to a house which has since been removed, so there's
not a new entrance off Route 11; they just had to cut through an existing berm. There is no building
associated with this project. PZO Weber stated it was his understanding with NYSDOT is "when there's
a change to the intensity of use of a curb cut then that would then required an approval from them. There
was the berm that was there, and a portion of the berm was taken down so that the driveway now
accesses Route 11; it didn't previously."
Mr. DuBois also stated that they have not decided yet on where to store what; it's only a temporary
storage area. They are talking about a few vehicles, cones, and road signage to be used in conjunction
with their construction contract on Interstate 81. PZO Weber added that a Development Permit is
needed for fill in the flood plain, they will need to have a discussion with Pat Reidy of County Soil &
Water regarding the Stormwater Plan which falls under the Town's Stormwater Regulations, which also
need to be satisfied.
Chair Wickwire recognized Richard Race who wished to speak to the Board on this matter. Mr. Race,
who said he lived directly across from the subject driveway, presented photos taken 30 April 2016, along
with aerial photos obtained from Google® of the site. It was his opinion that this driveway will become
the main entrance for the quarry operation. There would be 200 to 300 trucks per day, he stated. He
was told this by Harvey Anderson, a Suit-Kote employee. Mr. Race objects to this driveway being used
as the main entrance. Mr. DuBois stated he was here for the proposed staging area and that he could
not attest to future plans down the road. Mr. Race continued that he did not want to stop them from
doing what they are doing, but the subject area is not the place to have it. He would like to see the
entrance moved farther up where there are four lanes in the highway.
Member Newell asked Mr. DuBois if the proposed staging area will be shut down after the 81 project is
complete, and Mr. DuBois responded he did not know that; it was a two-year project. If trucks cannot
access the staging area as requested, then they will have to travel through the quarry. Chair Wickwire
asked how many trucks per day would operate there, and he answered five trucks, but he was not sure
how many trips will be made by each truck. He did not think it would be excessive.
Chair Wickwire commented that the main entrance is already there so if utilized they would not be
disturbing the residents living across the street from the driveway entrance. Mr. Race stated the
neighbors would not object if they were a little farther up "across from the truck stop." Chair Wickwire
asked Mr. DuBois if Suit-Kote could "tie in up here, across from the truck stop, right to this area,
straight through?" He replied that he didn't want to say we can't, but he didn't make the decision.
Chair Wickwire asked Mr. DuBois to go back and talk to the owners to see if they could come in across
from the truck stop and help the neighbors out. If the applicant had not already gone ahead without
Page 4 of 6
z9
JUN - 9 2016
(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Regular Meeting Minutes 24 May 2016
coming before the Planning Board, then money might not have been spent as the Board might have
come up with this arrangement/ solution ahead of time.
Member Renzi added that, when they do come back before. this Board, bring a Site Plan that shows more
detail on roadways, storage areas, and all that. And, added Chair Wickwire, the applicant 'should talk
to the NYSDOT also.
At the conclusion of this lengthy discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to postpone the
application for a Conditional Permit for a proposed Construction Staging Area until the 28 June
2016 meeting of this Board to allow the applicant time to provide the requested information. The
motion was seconded by Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:

Roval Nissan/Subaru Dealershiu - .NYS Route 13 - Next to Emu_ ire Tractor - Sketch Plan
Conference,
Chair Wickwire recognized Joe Reagan,, Dealership Owner, Architect Tom Schickel, and Engineer Chuck
Feiszli who presented a Sketch Plan for a new proposed 10.52± A. Nissan/ Subaru dealership on NYS
Route 13, relocating their existing Route 281 facility. Mr. Regan stated that this site would be about
three times larger than what they now, have on NYS Route 281 in the Town. Architect Schickel handed
out "Option 1 Elevations and Floor Plan." . With this new site, there would no longer be offloading from
- the road.
The proposed building will have a glass front. All service, work will be done onsite. Member Renzi asked
what was the disposition of the existing facility, and Mr. Reagan stated that it will be sold. Member
Renzi commented to Engineer Feiszli that the same comments he made regarding the Sirgany
application would also apply to this project. Landscaping plan, lighting plan, etc. will need to be
provided. The applicant will be returning to this Board -with a Site Plan.
No Action Required.
OTHER DISCUSSION
• Bestwav - Luker Road - Chair Wickwire commented that she had been informed that
nothing had been done to restore this site next to Petrella's Body Shop as requested by the
Planning Board. A timeline for completion of what was required was presented to Board
Members at their 27 October 2015 meeting. PZO Weber stated that he had been by the
site "the other day" and had seen no action.
• August Planning Board Meeting - PZO Weber advised he, will be gone from 8/21 until 8/30
(Board's normal meeting date), so proposed that the August meeting be held on the first
Tuesday in September, the 6th. If there was to be a meeting in August, it would have to be
a week before. The Town Board would meet on September Th if there were referrals to that
Board.
• Property at McLean Road & Fairview - Member Newell advised to contact Desiree Campbell
in Town Code Office regarding condition of specific property.

• Staain2 Areas for Construction Proiects - Member Finamore commented that Economy
Paving never came before this Board to get permission for construction storage areas along
Route 281. PZO Bruce Weber, responded that this was not the same as Suit-Kote who
owns the property they are using for that; Economy Paving is different. Some of the land
being utilized is part of the highway project itself.

At 8:35 p.m., a motion to adjourn the meeting was made by Member Newell, seconded by Member Renzi,
with all members present voting in the affirmative.

OLD BUSINESS
Leonidas Group of Virgil. LLC. Applicant/ Robert Ferris. Reputed Owner - Starr Road - TM #96.1&-
01-19.100 - Proposed PUD (Planned Unit Develovmentj
Town Board Member John Proud spoke to the Planning Board regarding this proposed PUD. He stated
that at the last Town Board meeting on the 15th, a resolution was made and passed unanimously to
.refer this zoning change request back to this Board in deference to Judge Cerio's recent decision which
indicated a report was needed from this Board. Councilman Proud stated that he was not sure that
what the Town Board received from this Board would have met the Judge's "standard" for a report. All
of the information is there, but it needs to be "packaged" so that when the Town Board receives it they
can say "yes, this is a complete report that we got from the Planning Board, and we can take the action
that's required by the Town Board." He concluded his remarks by thanking this Board for the work that
they do.
Town Attorney John Folmer advised the Planning Board that there should be a separate document
which could considered to be a report, as opposed to the mere reference to something in this Board's
Minutes. He then suggested that this Board consider their Minutes of the 29 March 2016 meeting, page
2 of the Clough Harbour letter of 15 March 2016, and the full Clough Harbour Associates report which
Page 1 of 9
JUL 2 5 2016
(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Regular Meeting Minutes 28 June 2016
was submitted 15 March 2016 in letter form, as this Board's report and forward it to the Town Board as
such—separate and distinct from the Minutes themselves.
A motion was then made by Member Newell that the Town of Cortlandville Planning Board
incorporates the Minutes of its 29 March 2016 meeting, page 2 of Clough Harbour Associates'
letter of 15 March 2016, and Clough Harbour Associates' full report of 15 March 2016 as its report
to the Town Board, separate and distinct from the Minutes themselves. The motion was seconded
by Member Nick Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None
Member Newell
Member Renzi
Member Finamore
Member DelVecchio
Motion carried.
This becomes Action #36 of 2016.
Chair Wickwire acknowledged receipt of a 23 June 2016 memo from Jill Holl, 25 Abdallah Avenue,
regarding an article in the Cortland Standard stating that the Town Board had planned to approve the
PUD designation; she urged reconsideration and asked everyone involved to not approve this zoning
change. A copy of the memo has been placed on file for the record. Town Attorney Folmer added that
"this matter has been closed." PZO Weber will provide copies of this letter to the Town Board.
Brian Sirganv. Applicant/Dante Armideo, Reputed Owner - 992 Tompkins Street - Part of TM
#96.13-01-02.100 - Site Plan, Subdivision & Aquifer Protection District Special Permit for
Proposed New Office for Sireanv Eve Care
Chair Wickwire acknowledged receipt of an 18 June 2016 letter to this Board from Brian Sirgany,
Applicant, which provided the statistics /justification for their request for 30 parking spots.
Accompanying the letter were two drawings: a landscaping plan, and the proposed sign details.
Chair- Wickwire stated she saw no problem with the requested 30 parking spaces. Member Renzi went,
through his comments, as follows:
"The following submittals are required:
1. Approved Stormwater Management system plan designed in accordance with
current New York State regulations.
2. A detailed maintenance plan for the stormwater management system being
proposed.
3. As requested at the May 24 meeting, provide a detailed landscaping plan with plant
names and quantities.
4. Details for proposed ground sign.
5. As requested at the May 24 meeting, provide a simple narrative as to how you have
addressed the Design and Development Guidelines of the Cortlandville Code Article
XXIII."
Member Renzi commented that most of the drawings they had received could not be read, even with a
magnifying glass. The Board was advised that the applicant will be seeking variances for the proposed
signage.

Member Renzi said he did not believe this Board should grant Conditional Permits contingent upon
submittals, etc.
1 t Chair Wickwire reviewed aloud the recommendations received from Cortland County Planning. The
applicant supplied their justification for 30f parking spaces. Eric Barden spoke regarding the
Landscaping Plan; Member Newell commented that the plan was very difficult to read. Chair Wickwire
asked if the building would look like what was shown in the drawings; Mr. Barden responded it would.
Engineer Feiszli stated the Stormwater Management Plan should be done next week. It was noted by
Attorney Folmer that the Town Board would not act on the Aquifer Protection District Special Permit
unless they have the Stormwater Management Plan. Member Renzi also said he would like to see Pat
Reidy's letter of approval.
PZO Weber reminded Planning Board members that in any approval that is granted, should be
contingent upon a Negative Declaration under SEQRA by the Town Board.
With no further discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to approve the Subdivision of
Land, as requested, contingent upon a Negative Declaration under SEQRA by the Town Board.

Suit-Kote Corporation. Applicant/ Reputed Owner - 3715 US Route 11 (Polkville) -TM #s 97.02-01-
10.000 & 11.000 - Conditional Permit for Proposed Construction Staging Area
(Reference is made to the May Minutes of this Board when the applicant's representative appeared to
explain the proposed construction staging area. At that meeting, Chair Wickwire asked Suit-Kote's
representative to talk to the owners to see if the entrance/exit could be across from the truck stop to
ease the neighbor's concerns. Member Renzi also asked that they also bring a Site Plan that shows
more detail on roadways, storage areas, etc. And, added Chair Wickwire, the applicant should talk to
the NYSDOT also.)
Chair Wickwire recognized Ryan DuBois, representing the applicant who was seeking a Conditional
Permit for an already existing construction staging area on the property as shown on the Site Plan
accompanying the application. Mr. DuBois submitted a revised Site Plan showing relocation of the
proposed driveway and other requested details. He stated that they relocated the driveway across from
Harter Drive because they felt it was the best option. Putting it closer to the gas station, he felt, was not
as good because of the reduction in lanes at that point on Route 11.
Chair Wickwire commented that where they now proposed the driveway doesn't help the people who live
across from there; the whole idea for moving it where the Board suggested was to keep the traffic away
from the homes. The best option, she reiterated, was to move it across from the gas station. It is a
simple thing to put it across from the gas station as discussed at last month's meeting, she stated.
"You've moved it about three feet."
PZO Weber, in response to Mr. DuBois' question, stated that this driveway is a part of the whole project.
Suit-Kote "has created a new driveway from the standpoint of your use of the property..." Mr. DuBois
countered that the driveway apron was existing. PZO Weber responded that "it was not used by Suit-
Kote as a construction entrance and exit. While the driveway was there, it was for a residence. It was
not for Suit-Kote, so the use of the driveway and the use of the property is changing, and that's what
kicks in the requirement for the Conditional Permit."
Mr. DuBois asked if Economy Paving obtained Conditional Permits for their equipment staging areas on
Route 281. Chair Wickwire responded that those are temporary staging areas on privately held property
they are renting. PZO Weber added that, once the subject staging area is established, "this appears to
be how this property will be utilized for an extended period of time, and not only while 81 is going on."
Chair Wickwire commented that nothing seems to have changed since the May meeting; only thing that
was done was to move the proposed driveway a short distance. "All this does is postpone what we could
have settled tonight if you had just come with it, like we asked, across from the gas station, and then
you could have had this nicely done out here. We only meet once a month. What you've done here is
just move it about two feet down; it's still across from people's homes. They don't like it. We asked you
at the last meeting to be a good neighbor and move it down. And I thought you were bringing a new
map, moving it down away from the people's homes there. Not moving it across from Harter Road. I
- don't think that Suit-Kote drivers are going to have a problem merging in traffic."

(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Regular Meeting Minutes 28 June 2016
Mr. DuBois stated that this was a temporary staging area for the Interstate 81 project; it was not
permanent. Chair Wickwire responded that if it was temporary, and only for the 81 job, why couldn't
they put it across from the gas station? Mr. DuBois said that he could go back to see if he could modify
the map.
Chair Wickwire stated this is supposed to be a temporary staging area that could turn into something
permanent; it's not such a big deal.
Mr. DuBois then advised the Board that he had talked with the NYSDEC and he will be filing for a
"Construction SWPPP." The berm will be replaced and the gate moved.
At the conclusion of this lengthy discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to postpone the
application for a Conditional Permit for a proposed Construction Staging Area until the 26 July
2016 meeting of this Board to allow the applicant time to submit a final plan. The motion was
seconded by Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None

This becomes Action #40 of 2016.
Roval Nissan Subaru, Applicant/654 Rt. 13, LLC, Reputed Owner - 654 NYS Route 13 -
Conditional Permit & Aquifer Protection District Special Permit for Proposed Dealership
Chair Wickwire recognized Architect Tom Schickel and Engineer Chuck Feiszli who had submitted an
Application for a new proposed 10.52± A. Nissan/Subaru dealership on NYS Route 13, relocating their
existing Route 281 facility. A Sketch Plan Conference was held at the May meeting of this Board;
reference is made to those Minutes for additional information.
Engineer Feiszli advised that the parking spaces shown on the plan were not 10 by 20 as they are not
parking spots for the public, but are parking spots (9 by 18) for the display of cars for sale. He also
stated the Stormwater Plan would be completed before the next meeting; test holes for perc rate still
have to be done.
Member Renzi commented that height of free-standing sign should be limited to eight feet in accordance
with the Town's guidelines. PZO Weber added that the building -mounted sign appears to extend above
the building.
At the close of this brief discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to forward the
applications to the Cortland County Planning Department for their review. The motion was
seconded by Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None

- ` Gerald & Favanne Bell, Applicants/Reputed Owners - Blue Creek Road - TM #76.00-07-06.100 -
Subdivision of Land
Chair Wickwire recognized Brian Buttner, RA, representing the owners who wish to subdivide their land
as shown on the map accompanying the application, said 300 ft. by 350 ft. parcel (indicated as Lot S2)
to be sold to Joseph Reagan, as described in Architect Buttner's narrative. The lot meets all
requirements, he advised. The proposed house footprint shown on the map was drawn in in order for
Mr. Reagan's engineer, Timothy C. Buhl, PE, to do an initial stormwater study for that parcel. There is
an established right-of-way there which will remain in place for access to another parcel.
PZO Weber advised there are requirements under the stormwater maintenance that does allow for a
property owner to maintain their own system. That stormwater plan will need to be approved, as does
the maintenance plan. There is also a requirement that there be an easement given to the Town should
they need to take action to maintain it. These things need to be taken care of.
Chair Wickwire stated that she was confused regarding the request. The entire farm is not being
developed; he's taking another lot and selling it off. PZO Weber responded that it has been done
"piecemeal" and the exemption for the Stormwater Plan allows for up to five lots. The proposed lot would
be the sixth lot and, once that limit has been exceeded, it now must be considered that a subdivision is
being created. Continual development of an area needs to provide some type of plan for stormwater
maintenance.
At the conclusion of a lengthy discussion, a motion was made by Member DelVecchio to approve the
Subdivision of Land as requested, contingent upon the applicant, if any construction, adhering to
the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan regulations. The motion was seconded by Member
Newell, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None

Wickwire, dated 16 June 2016, from Mrs. Stiles' attorney, Natalie B. Miner, explained that the leach
field for John Stiles presently encroaches on Mrs. Stiles' property. In order to correct this situation, the
applicant is prepared to convey her interest in approximately one-third of an acre as shown on the map.
With no further discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to approve the Lot Line
Adjustment as requested. The motion was seconded by Member Finamore, with the vote recorded
as follows:

mostly takeout and there are 20 parking spaces available, as shown on the map accompanying the
application.
Traffic flow was also discussed, along with hours of operation.

OTHER BUSINESS
Leach Properties, LLC, Applicant
Chair Wickwire recognized Town Attorney John Folmer who advised the Board that there was a
"housekeeping matter" that needed to be taken care of as a result of the Court's determination that the
approvals granted to Gregory Leach on his applications, starting with the variance, needed to be
rescinded. Therefore, he advised that it would be a good idea to rescind this Board's approval so it's
clear on the record that the matter has been closed and terminated and a reapplication could not be
made for the same permit.
With no further discussion, a motion was made by Member Renzi that the Town of Cortlandville
Planning Board rescinds Action #75 of 27 October 2015 which approved a Conditional Permit for
Leach Properties, LLC, Applicant, TM Parcel Nos. 77.00-04-11.111 & 11.112. The motion was

to Petrella's Body Shop as requested by the Planning Board, other than planting some trees. About a
week or so ago, someone was dumping stuff there again. It is supposed to be restored to the "natural
state it was in." PZO Weber stated he would contact them and request that they put the property back
to its original state—give them 30 days. A motion was then made by Member Renzi to give Bestway

David McMasters, Applicant/David & Jennifer McMasters. Reputed Owners - 4216 McClov Road -
TM #85.00-05-05.211 - Special Permit for Proposed Pond
Chair Wickwire recognized the applicant and his attorney Patrick Snyder. Attorney Snyder stated that
the applicant was in the process of obtaining a NYSDEC Mining Permit to construct a pond on his
property as indicated on the Mining Plan accompanying the application; the Permit is expected within a
few days. The excavated materials (approximately three truckloads per day) would be removed in
accordance with the DEC's Mining Permit. Attorney Snyder submitted a 21 June 2016 letter to PZO
Weber, a copy of which has been placed on file for the record, which transmitted the application for a
Special Permit and explained the jurisdiction of this Planning Board. He also noted that the SEQRA
requirements have been completed by the Lead Agency, the NYSDEC; a Negative Resolution resulted.
In response to Member Renzi's question regarding the Town's Code in dealing with mining, PZO Weber
explained that the technical details in the Town's Ordinance are overridden by the State. This Board
considers: the hours of operation, etc. Attorney Snyder stated that there would be no mining on the
weekends.
Chair Wickwire commented that she thought, originally, the applicant was going to build a recreational
pond for his family. Mr. McMasters stated that this is what the pond is for, but since he's taking the
excavated material offsite, he needed the permits. Member John DelVecchio commented on Judge
Campbell's ruling regarding this matter, and he would like to see what the State Law says. At the
conclusion of the discussion, it was acknowledged that a Public Hearing must be held. In addition, PZO
Weber stated there are some things that State Law is going to override and he read them aloud.
Regarding restoration, he did not know if the Town can still require a bond; that's a legal question the
Town Attorney could answer.
At the conclusion of the discussion, a motion was made by Member Chris Newell to set a Public
Hearing for 13 September 2016 at 7:30 p.m. regarding the Special Permit for the proposed pond.
The motion was seconded by Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None
Member Newell
Member Renzi
Member Finamore
Member DelVecchio
Motion carried.
This becomes Action #50 of 2016.
Leach Properties, LLC, Applicant/ Reputed Owner - Loring Crossing Road - TM #s 77.00-04-11.111
& 112 - Request from ZBA to Act as Lead Agencv Under SEORA - Proposed Access Drives
PZO Weber explained to those present that the Town's Zoning Board of Appeals, at their meeting prior to
this one, requested that this Board act as Lead Agency under SEQRA for this application. They also
indicated that the application should be forwarded to County Planning for their review.
In response to Member Renzi's confusion regarding this application, PZO Weber explained that the Court
found that the use variance was granted by the Town ZBA without the SEQRA being done. In
Page 2 of 4
03
AUG 1 6 2016 11bt
(T) Cortlandville Planning Board Regular Meeting Minutes 26 July 2016
order to follow the Court's ruling, he explained, the ZBA is asking the Planning Board (also an involved
agency) to be the Lead Agency for the SEQRA determination. The ZBA will not act until such time as
that determination is made.
Town Attorney John Folmer explained that, as he understood it, this is a new application and is
somewhat different than what was before the ZBA previously. If the Town Planning Board agrees to be
Lead Agency under SEQRA, the application returns to the ZBA after the SEQRA review is complete. PZO
Weber then added: "The original application does not exist as it was thrown out by the Court."
Member John DelVecchio then voiced his concerns. An appeal was filed by Mr. Leach's attorney and,
technically, it's still in litigation. He would like to wait until the judge makes his decision; the Notice of
Appeal has been filed. Town Attorney Folmer agreed that "the old litigation is still pending." He then
explains the options the Court has. The ZBA needs to know the outcome of this litigation before they
can act.
Town Attorney Folmer advised the Board, "It would not be inappropriate for you to table this until such
time as you've heard what Judge Cerio did. Secondly, between now and the next ZBA meeting, we can
decide whether or not they can deal with the non -environmental issues that are appending in the new
application and, lastly, if they can do that and they make a determination that does not let this go
forward, that's the end of it; you won't have to worry about being a SEQRA agency for anybody. In the
final analysis, the last thing I would say is, with all due respect to Mr. Lewis, I think that his attempt to
tell you what your time frame is and should be is improper and not appropriate."
At the conclusion of this extremely lengthy discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell that
the request for the Planning Board to act as Lead Agency under SEQRA regarding the proposed
access drives is tabled until the 13 September 2016 meeting of this Board to (1) see what the
Town's ZBA will do relative to non -environmental issues, and (2) if Judge Cerio has rendered his
decision.. The motion was seconded by Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None

This becomes Action #51 of 2016.
John Machuea/HEP Sales, Applicant/HS Associates, LLC. Reputed Owner - 797 NYS Route 13 -

Chair Wickwire recognized the applicant who is seeking a Conditional Permit to construct a 64 ft. by 144
ft. storage building, with ends, at the location shown on the drawing accompanying the application. A
customer will be able to drive through the building to pick up lumber, he stated. Mr. Machuga stated
that HEP is "losing product" because of the way it is currently stored. End caps, he stated, will match
the existing main building, and so will the paint color. The existing trees will also remain, and the
parking lot will be gravel.
With no further discussion, a motion was made by Member Renzi to approve the Conditional Permit
for the proposed 64 ft. by 144 ft. storage building, as requested. The motion was seconded by
Member Newell, with the vote recorded as follows:

matter.)
Chair Wickwire recognized Attorney John A. DelVecchio, representing the applicant who was seeking a

indicated on the annotated map accompanying the application. The Trust owns both Parcels A and B,
and is under contract to sell Parcel B. Parcel B provides access to the driveway from Valley View Drive.

contract have agreed to adjust the line as shown.

OTHER MATTERS
Bestwav - Luker Road - PZO Weber advised he had heard nothing. As requested by this Board, he gave
them thirty days to return their property at 3832 Luker Road to its original condition.
Proposed Composting by City of Cortland - Chair Wickwire said she understood the City is proposing
some type of composting on 19t A. near the water tanks. She stated it was an "obnoxious" thing and
the Town wasn't even told or asked about it. Attorney Folmer commented that the City was applying for
a grant and that the Town Board should express their opinion. This will be taken up at a Town Board
meeting next week. They will take a real good look at what's being proposed.
Checklist for Applicants - Member Renzi talked about providing Conditional Permit applicants with the
checklist that had been prepared some time ago. PZO Weber stated he gives them out when meeting
with applicants. Discussed letter to give those with Conditional Permits.
Trailer Park - Member John Finamore asked about the trailer park; PZO Weber responded this was a
Code Enforcement concern.

Board Member DelVecchio questioned Section 178-16 E 1, which referred to the operation of the quarry
with regard to excavation in such matter to avoid dust and noise and special treatment, etc., as required
by the Planning Board. Attorney Snyder responded that this was superseded by the NYS Mining Law.
Town Attorney John Folmer commented, "If you look at the Permit Item #14, it is a requirement in the
Permit regarding dust..." Also, Item #15 covers this concern. Attorney Folmer stated that when he and
PZO Weber reviewed the Permit, and "compared it with the requirements of 116, it was our conclusion
that we could deal with traffic as it affects the operating hours which are fixed by the Permit as 8 to 5
during the week and 8 to noon during the other... But beyond that, you are coming very close to
regulating the industry, which you are not permitted to do." Attorney Snyder commented that the
Permit says that no visible dust can leave .the property, so this is taken care of.
Chair Wickwire said that what the Board was trying to avoid was trucks filled with excavated material
coming down past people's homes With dirt flying, etc. Member DelVecchio stated he did not
understand why or how the State Law supersedes our Code.
PZO Weber clarified that the Town does not have an application for a Special Permit, so a Conditional
Permit Application was completed.
At the completion of a length discussion, a motion was made by Member Newell to approve a Special
Permit for the proposed pond, as requested. The motion was seconded by Member John
Finamore, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: Member DelVecchio

- Proposed Repair/Maintenance Shop Building
Chair Wickwire recognized Andrew Porter and Attorney Mike Shafer, representing the applicant who was
seeking a Conditional Permit and an Aquifer Protection District Special Permit for this project. Attorney
Shafer stated that this project had been approved in 2012 and the Permit was granted and extended.
However, Bestway never completed the construction of this facility. They now plan to do so according to
Mr. Porter. Attorney Shafer explained that the only issue was access to the public utilities; there are
several ways this can be done, but the actual access has not been determined yet.
Member Renzi commented that the drawing left a lot to be desired. Attorney Shafer commented that
there was a better drawing prepared by Brent Cross, but he did not have time to "re-pull that, but I
certainly can do that." PZO Weber advised that the Board could rely on the previous information that
they had both from the County and from previous submittals. Member Renzi suggested that the
applicant make a complete package, answering all of the Board's questions and his comments. Chair
Wickwire agreed that the Board would like to see what is being proposed.

17.000 & 18.000 - Conditional Permit & Aauifer Protection District Special Permit Proposed New
Building/Concrete Dike
(Reference is made to the 9/13 & 9/2716 Minutes of this Board for additional information.)
Chair Wickwire recognized Terry Horst representing the applicant who was seeking a Conditional Permit
and an Aquifer Protection District Special Permit to construct a 3,880± SF building, demolish an existing
building and replacing it with gravel, and renovate the current concrete dike at the tank pad, all as
shown on the materials accompanying the application. Ms. Horst advised that photos had been mailed
in showing the type of siding to be used for the building, as requested at the 27 September 2016 meeting
of this Board.
Chair Wickwire asked Ms. Horst if she had received a copy of the Cortland County Planning
Department/ Board's reports; she had not. Chair Wickwire asked PZO Bruce Weber why the applicant
does not get these reports, and he responded that he has asked the County to do so, but it hasn't
happened yet. Ms. Horst was provided with copies.
The Board reviewed the County Planning Board's Resolution No. 16-32, dated 10/19/16, with the
applicant's representatives. Regarding Item #1, they were okay with this recommendation regarding
dike capacity. Item #2: they have completed this request for a Petroleum Bulk Storage Permit. Item #3:
They will increase the width of the driveway as recommended. Item #4: They will provide a Spill
Response and Prevention Plan, as requested, with a copy to PZO Weber. Item #5: Less than one acre
will be disturbed, so the SWPPP is not required. Item #6: Regarding existing monitoring wells, the
applicant will comply with this recommendation. Item #7: Applicant will obtain approval of public
water and sewer, as recommended. Item #8: Additional info on snow storage has been done. Item #8:
Lighting/ landscaping information has been provided, as recommended.
At the conclusion of their discussion, a motion was made by Member Nick Renzi to approve the Site
Plan and Conditional Permit for the new building and concrete dike, as requested, contingent
upon compliance with Items 1 thru 10 of the Cortland County Planning Board's Resolution No. 16-
32 of 19 October 2016. The motion was seconded by Member Chris Newell, with the vote

NEW BUSINESS
Arthur Bell. Jr.. Auulicant/Reputed Owner - 1062 Blue Creek Road - TM #74.00-07-04.000 -
Provosed Subdivision
Chair Wickwire recognized Brian Buttner, RA, representing the applicant who was seeking approval to
re -subdivide Lot #1062 of the Bell Residential Complex, as shown on the drawing accompanying the
application. The lot would be divided into two lots of 2.276± and 1.365± acres, as indicated, in order to
accommodate a duplex residence and a single residence. Access would be by a legal easement, he
stated.
PZO Weber, in response to Mr. Buttner's calling the lots "flag lots," commented that he would not
classify them as such. Town Attorney John Folmer voiced his concerns with an easement for the lots,
which would be compounded when a third lot is added—"I think there's a problem here." PZO Weber
stated, "If you were to make this a public road on the lots that you have, you would be creating non-
conforming lots for the properties that are ,there under- the existing zoning." The proposed easement(s),
possible intent to make it into a Town road, utilities, etc., were discussed. Chair Wickwire concluded,
after the discussion, that any decision the Board makes could be contingent upon getting an easement
which is acceptable to this Board.
Mr. Buttner then added that he wanted to make it clear that, in discussions with PZO Weber, "the first
two lots did not involve stormwater retention; they were just lots that existed." Now there is a
stormwater retention area that is included in any future design.
At the conclusion of this lengthy discussion, a motion was made by Member DelVecchio to approve
the Subdivision of land, as requested, contingent upon easement language operating as a covenant
running with the land be included in deeds of conveyance, and the property owner complying with
the Town of Cortlandville's Stormwater Regulations. The motion was seconded by Member
Newell, with the vote recorded as follows:
Ayes: Chair Wickwire Nays: None
Member Newell
Member Renzi
Member Finamore
Member DelVecchio
Motion carried.
This becomes Action #70 of 2016.

APD Engineering & Architecture. PLLC, Avvlicant/Aldi. Inc.. Revuted Owner - 908 NYS Route 13
- TM #95.16-02-45.000 - Sketch Plan Conference - Provosed New Retail Store
Chair Wickwire recognized Chris Kambar, representing the applicant, who displayed an aerial photo and
a preliminary Site Rendering of a proposed retail store (Aldi's) at this location. The proposed grocery
store would be next to the existing store on this parcel, which eventually would be leased to another
retail business, he advised. This way, the existing store could operate while the new store is under
construction.
Parking spaces were discussed. The spaces shown were smaller (10 ft. by 18 ft.) than. required:(10 ft. by
20 ft.) in order to achieve the number of spaces they would like, in addition to adding more green space
which is still short by 1.8%. Chair Wickwire advised "we make everybody have ten by twenty." Member
Renzi asked if any studies have been done, and Mr. Kambar replied "it wouldn't work." Member Renzi
commented that the 10 ft. by 20 ft. parking spaces, and the green space, "are sacred." He suggested to
Mr. Kambar that they revise the plan to show 10 ft. by 20 ft. parking spaces, and eliminate some to
conform to the green space requirement. If this is really a hardship, Member Renzi commented, then
they could go before the ZBA and plead their case. They should also check on impervious parking. PZO
Weber added that the applicant needed to take a look at the definition of lot coverage.
Signage was discussed; may use existing sign pole along Route 13.
Chair Wickwire stated they would try to "work it out." However, the Board had given them their
concerns, the two major ones being the size of parking spaces and green space. Member Renzi stated
he would like to hear from Pat Reidy of County Soil & Water regarding the green space.
No Action Taken.
ADJOURNMENT.
At 8:35 p.m., a motion to adjourn the meeting was made by Member Newell, seconded by Member
Finamore, with all members present voting in the affirmative.

APD Engineering & Architecture, PLLC. Applicant/Aldi. Inc., Reouted Owner - 908 NYS Route 13
- TM #95.16-02-45.000 - Site Plan Review & Aquifer Protection .District Special Permit for
Proposed New Retail Store
(Reference is made to the 25 October 2016 Planning Board Minutes. for preliminary information.)
Chair Wickwire recognized Chris Kambar, representing the applicant, who had submitted new drawings
as indicated in their 21 November 2016 transmittal letter, a copy of which has been placed on file for the
record. The drawings were revised to indicate 10 ft: by 20 ft.- parking spaces, as had been requested by
the Board. This resulted in a partial .takedown of Ahe existing Aldi's building. The' scheduling of the
construction still needs to be determined, so there,will be a "transition period."
The revised drawings show added trees and landscaping along the front. In response to Chair
Wickwire's question,. Mr. Kambar stated the entrances off Route 13 will remain the same, but will be
considered "right in, right out." A rendering of the, new building was shown to the Board; it was similar
brick as the existing store on the site. Pylon sign,. he stated, will remain the same, but a variance will be
needed for the building -mounted signs.
Member 'Renzi noted. that on the existing site it .was indicated .8.9 parking spaces per 1,000 SF of
building; the proposed is down to 3.5 spaces per 1,000 SF. What is proposed is in line with other retail
stores.

Mr. Kryger responded that they did not want to go through all the expense without knowing whether or
not they could obtain the PUD zoning from the Town. Chair Wickwire agreed that the application
should go to Clough -Harbour for their input and, in order to recommend a zoning change, the Board has
to determine if they feel it should do so. Member Renzi added that there were a lot of things that would
impact the Board's recommendation to the Town, and they needed to look at all the things that would
impact that -recommendation, as he stated earlier.
Engineer Buhl stated that a lot of the information could be gleaned from their completed EAF, and he
would be willing to answer any additional requests as part of the SEQRA review. He suggested "giving it
to Clough -Harbour and let them take a look at it."
At the conclusion of a lengthy discussion, a motion was made by Member Renzi to send the PUD
application to Clough -Harbour Associates for their review. The motion was seconded by Member
Finamore, with the vote recorded as follows:

Chair Wickwire recognized Rocco Paone, representing the Rick D'Amico, who purchased this property
from its original owner. The applicant is seeking a Conditional Permit to renovate the present four-
bedroom units into two-bedroom suites, installing a fire separation between the units. He showed the
Board what was being planned. The only a couple of the suites are planned to be ready for the next
semester to see how viable they will be.
PZO Weber added that they are planning ori dividing the existing dwelling units, and there's nothing to
preclude them from renting to families, etc.; it will not be restricted to just student housing. They will
add two dwelling units to the present 92, for a total of 94; this requires a Conditional Permit.
Mr. Perone advised the Board that parking requirements will actually go down.
At the conclusion of the discussion, a motion was made by Member DelVecchio to approve the
Conditional Permit - for the proposed renovations, as requested. The motion was seconded by
Member Renzi, with the vote recorded as follows:

In response to Member Renzi's question, Mr. Kambar stated that they are working with Pat Reidy
regarding the SWPPP, as they will be disturbing more than one acre, but minimally. They will have to
obtain a SPDES Permit, etc. There are ponds in the back that will accommodate the runoff; he
explained a "plunge pool" to the Board. There will be a long-term maintenance plan they will put
together and file with the County.
At the conclusion of the discussion, a motion was made by Member Renzi to send the applications
for Site Plan Approval and an Aquifer Protection District Special Permit for the proposed new
retail food store to the Cortland County Planning Department for their review. The motion was

Osborne Residential PUD, Applicant /Richard Osborne, Reputed Owner - So. Side of Starr Road -
TM #96.00-06-1.110 - PUD Application
Chair Wickwire recognized Tim Buhl, PE, representing the applicant who was seeking approval to have a
PUD on this 61± -acre parcel, as indicated in the packet everyone received, a copy of which has been
placed on file for the record. The property is located on the south side of Starr Road, next to the
existing mobile home park. The engineer described the topography of the site. They are proposing two
phases, one portion (62 units) of the subject parcel that could be served by public water and sewer very
easily; the second phase, at a higher elevation, would require booster stations. Actual density would be
much less than what is allowed in the R-2 zone, and they plan on having a mix of multi -family and
duplexes on the property which is why the PUD designation is requested.
Engineer Buhl explained the road(s) that were planned. There would be a homeowner's association.
PZO Bruce Weber asked the representatives if when they looked at the density, did they look at the area
that was zoned Agricultural, and then look at the area zoned R-2? Mr. Buhl responded that there would
be nothing done in the Ag zone.
In response to Chair Wickwire's questions, Mr. Buhl advised that this PUD was being done by Dick
Osborne who, after learning of another PUD on the same road, thought this might be a good way to go
with his property. Chair Wickwire was concerned because this now meant "two projects on Starr Road
all going up at the same time" which would mean extra traffic on that road.
Al Kryger then informed everyone he was the consultant who helped people put projects together and
develop it.
Engineer Buhl stated there would be rain gardens on this project which would be maintained by the
homeowner's association. There would be no runoff as everything would be infiltrated. Chair Wickwire
acknowledged the reps were before the Board to present their request for a PUD, and Mr. Buhl stated
they were in hopes that the Board would pass the application on to the County for their review. Member
Renzi responded that this was a complicated project and, in his opinion, it had to be looked at seriously
in terms of density, traffic, stormwater management, infrastructure, how it fits in with overall planning,
etc. At this point, he stated, it's not ready to go to County Planning for their review. This Board has a
lot of work it should do and, again in his opinion, they should obtain the services of Clough -Harbour to
look at the entire project, including how it relates to the previous PUD (Robert Ferris). The drawings
submitted are what Member Renzi called "boiler plate," and not sufficient to forward to the County; "the
important stuff is not here yet."

APD Eneineerina & Architecture. PLLC. Avvlicant/Aldi. Inc.. Reputed Owner - 908 NYS Route 13
- TM #95.16-02-45.000 - Site Plan Review & Aquifer Protection District Special Permit for
Proposed New Retail Store
(Reference is made to the 25 October and 29 November 2016 Planning Board Minutes for additional
information.)
As Todd Markevicz, PE of APD Engineering was delayed, the Planning Board started their discussion
regarding this application in advance of his arrival. Chair Wickwire noted that the County Planning
Board recommended removal of the western driveway exit to the site; she did not see a big problem with
that entrance as it has been there a long time. She also asked if a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
was required, and PZO Weber said that it was not as long as the applicant was not increasing the
impervious surface. PZO Weber stated that he had not heard from Pat Reidy of County Soil & Water.
At this time, Engineer Markevicz arrived, and Chair Wickwire asked him about the existing western
driveway mentioned in the County's Resolution. He stated he had seen the County's report, but they do
not want to change the driveways; it's only a right in/right out driveway. PZO Weber commented that
the Board needs input from the NYSDOT; once they sign off there's no problem.
The Board then asked the engineer if he had discussed the stormwater with Pat Reidy, and he replied
that he had, and Mr. Reidy was in favor of what they were planning on doing: not touching the basin,
just add modifications to it, as well as pretreatment near the loading docks. Mr. Reidy had no other
concerns. They have submitted a report to Mr. Reidy. Regarding lighting, Mr. Markevicz stated there
was a small revision which he pointed out to them. Revised photometrics were provided. There will be a
1.7 foot-candle light at the edge of the existing parking lot.
Engineer Markevicz commented that there is an existing utility pole and guy wire on the property; the
guy wire will now be in the proposed pavement, so they are working on a solution to that. The green
space will remain the same.
