REPORT OF THE TOWN ENGINEER - LAWRENCE P . FABBRONI No report . REPORT OF THE TOWN PLANNER - PETER M . LOVI Mr . Lovi stated that he had three or four items to report on . ( 1 ) Continuing Projects : - - Lake Shore West Mr . Lovi stated that , as the Board knows , the Town Board made a determination with respect to the EAF on a part of this project at its April meeting and as part of that determination requested some eight additional pieces of information regarding the nursing home facility . Mr . Lovi stated that Kevin Lewis , the Architect , is in the process of working with the consultants , and he ( Lovi ) is working on it also , trying to put that information together . Mr . Lovi stated that the principals of the development firm are somewhat insistent on the need for having the entire project considered as to the rezoning and the R30 uses , even though there is really no detail on the doctors ' offices and the retirement apartments down the hill . Mr . Lovi stated that he had received a letter from Enrique Darer recently which was quite explicit as to what they require in the form of approvals in order to move ahead at all . Mr . Lovi stated that he will be meeting later this week with Mr . Desch , Mr . Fabbroni , and Mr . Knowlton on this matter . Mr . Lovi stated that Mr . Lewis understands the need for more information and is proceeding with the job of obtaining it . Mr . Lovi stated that he wished the record to show that both Mr . Knowlton and Mr . Lewis realize the Town ' s position and agree with it , Mr . Darer and others seem to be wanting more . Wiggins ' Chateau Mr . Lovi commented that " The Chateau " is looking a lot more like a " Chateau " every time drawings come in , " The Chateau " is now " La Tourelle " . Mr . Lovi stated that he met last week with Mr . Downing , the Architect , and his assistant , Steve Parsons . Mr . Lovi stated that , as the Board was aware , Mr . Wiggins does not have as • t Planning Board 3 May 1 , 1984 • much land as he thought he had , since he had given some to his ° daughter . Mr . Lovi stated that the proposed building does not meet the side yard requirements , having a very steep roof , and being about 52 feet high . Chairman May said he had heard rumours about three stories . Mr . Lovi commented that it appears as though it may contain three " floors " , adding that it is on a slope with the first phase having 24 units and a manager ' s office . Mr . Lovi stated that he has suggested that they come in when the working drawings are in better shape and let the Planning Board take a look at it . Mr . Lovi commented that the design is not at all bad , being somewhat reminiscent of the law school . Mr . Lovi stated that the floor plan is quite nice and it looks to be quite a nice facility , however , enough things seem to be changed that he thought the Board should look at it - - probably at the next meeting . ( 2 ) SEQR-Related Items : - Mr . Lovi stated that during this last week there have been discussions between the Town and the Dormitory Authority with respect to the SEQR Law and the Dormitory Authority ' s compliance or non - compliance with it . Mr . Lovi stated that the Dormitory Authority is selling $ 100 million in bonds for capital projects for Cornell University , several of which are in the Town of Ithaca . Mr . Lovi stated that the Dormitory Authority sent a determination , as lead agency , of non - significance to which the Town objected both as to the determination and the lead agency status . Mr . Lovi stated that the Town was the only objector , however , they could not sell the bonds until the matter was resolved and it has been resolved such that ( 1 ) with respect to the steam plant conversion from oil to coal the review will be deemed as a generic review , but when the project becomes site specific , they agreed that they would not object to the Town of Ithaca as lead agency should it choose to act as such , and ( 2 ) with respect to transportation , given the plans for additional parking in the East Ithaca area , the Town has achieved a kind of victory in that the Dormitory Authority is recognizing the Town ' s standing to review the environmental aspects of the project . ( 3 ) Six Mile Creek Study Committee matters : - Mr . Lovi , commenting that this matter is also SEQR- related , stated that the Six Mile Creek Study Committee passed its recommendations on to Common Council and they have been sent through the channels of City government in a remarkably speedy manner , there being resolutions ready for Common Council to vote on tomorrow - - May 2nd , Mr . Lovi stated that these involve actions which would be in the Town and would have some impact on the Town in general , certainly on abutting landowners . Mr . Lovi stated that the Town Supervisor wrote to the Mayor pointing out that the Town should be the lead agency . Mr . Lovi commented that the City is no different from any other landowner in the Town and it is something that the Town should look at . Mr . Lovi stated that major policy changes are involved here and the Town may be looking at this matter in the future if , in fact , it comes in . Mr . Lovi stated ' 1 Planning Board 4 May 1 , 1984 that right now the entire watershed area is off limits with the exception of the Circle Greenway ; however , one of the proposals is that the area below the 60 - foot dam should become open to the public . Mr . Lovi described a scenario going something like this - - people park on , say , Penny Lane , in Commonland , and walk down to the watershed ; then while walking back up to their car , they trip over something and break an ankle , at that point there are potentially serious questions of liability which should be answered before the policy change is made . Mr . Mazza inquired as to the zone designation now in place by the Town for the watershed area . The Secretary noted that the area is zoned Residence District R- 30 , Mr . Mazza asked if a park were permitted ; the Secretary read from Article V , Section 18 , of the Zoning Ordinance [ Permitted Uses ] , paragraph 5 : " Publicly owned park or playground including accessory buildings and improvements . " Discussion followed with respect to opinions on the possibility of such an area being a park or not a park . Discussion followed with respect to who is , or is not , lead agency , and where , or whether , SEQR is triggered or not triggered . Chairman May thanked Mr . Lovi for his report . REPORT OF THE SECRETARY - NANCY M . FULLER Mrs . Fuller stated that she had already distributed all the material . she had to the Board members just prior to the opening of the meeting . REPORT OF THE BUILDING INSPECTOR - LEWIS D . CARTEE Mr . Cartee reported that 27 permits were issued in the month of April 1984 for a total of $ 988 , 130 . 00 in improvements , as compared to 14 permits for a total of $ 256 , 126 . 00 in improvements in the month of April 1983 . Mr . Cartee pointed out that 14 of the 15 single - family homes for which permits were issued were for Commonland Community . Mr . Cartee commented that almost a million dollars worth of construction in April is really rather impressive . SIGN REVIEW BOARD Chairman May asked that Mr . Cartee present an application for change in signage at the former location of " Bud ' s Red & White " on Mitchell Street . Mr . Cartee appeared before the Board and stated that , as the Board was probably aware , Mr . McFall has retired , however , the legal non - conforming aspect of his store remains intact since it has been less than one year since he closed up " Bud ' s " . Mr . Cartee stated that a young lady has rented the store and will be conducting a knitting business there . Mr . Cartee distributed a drawing of theproposed sign , reading : " knitting machines . . . etc . " , and also several colored photographs of the former " Bud ' s " store . Mr . Cartee stated that the proposed sign is 13h sq . ft . in size , commenting that Bud ' ssign was a legal non - conforming sign of 30 sq . ft . Mr . Cartee commented that the Planning Board 5 May 1 , 1984 gasoline pumps have been removed at Bud ' s . Mr . Cartee stated that the Sign Law permits a 4 sq . ft . sign in this zone , however , he would have to agree with the young lady that a sign of that size could not be seen as one drove by . Mr . Cartee stated that there will probably be less traffic with this new business than there has been with " Bud ' s " . Mr . Cartee stated that the whole building is being redone and is very nice , adding that Mr . McFall ( Bud ) is a very nice gentleman and very easy to work with . Mr . Cartee stated that he did not know of any other use this building could be for , pointing out that there is ample off - street parking . MOTION by Mrs . Carolyn Grigorov , seconded by Mr . James Baker : RESOLVED , that the Town of Ithaca Planning Board , in its capacity as Sign Review Board , recommend and hereby does recommend to the Zoning Board of Appeals approval of a 132 sq . ft . sign , reading " knitting machines . . . etc . " , to be located on the front facade of the former " Bud ' s Red & White " , 903 Mitchell Street . There being no further discussion , the Chair called for a vote . Aye - May , Langhans , Klein , Schultz , Stanton , Baker , Grigorov , Mazza . Nay - None . • The MOTION was declared to be carried unanimously . Mr . Cartee thanked the Board for their time and attention to this matter . REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOARD REPRESENTATIVE TO THE COUNTY PLANNING BOARD - CAROLYN GRIGOROV . Mrs . Grigorov reported on the April 11 , 1984 meeting of the CPB , stating that there is a very interesting , very nice , built - up , three - dimensional physical model showing the Route 13 alternatives B - 1 and B - 2 [ A and B ] and is on display at the County Planning Department offices at 128 East Buffalo Street , Mrs . Grigorov reported that the so - called " improvements " to Route 79 ( Slaterville Road ) as proposed by NYSDOT are causing great distress to the landowners . Chairman May stated that he was well aware of this distressful situation since he is one of those landowners and stands to lose several sugar maple trees over one hundred years old . Chairman May stated that there is to be a meeting at the Bethel Grove Community Center on May 24th , with several interested parties in attendance , such as Assemblyman MacNeil and the new regional director [ Region 3 ] for NYSDOT , Richard Simberg . Chairman May stated that the State is claiming that the road right of way is 66 feet wide ( 4 rods ) . The Board members expressed their concern for the residents , commenting that the proposal seems to have been expanded from drainage and ditch improvements to a much larger project . Chairman May commented that Planning Board 6 May 1 , 1984 the State has indicated that , since no Federal Funds are involved , no SEQR review is necessary . Chairman May stated that he has written , personally , challenging that . Mrs . Grigorov stated that the main discussion item at this meeting was the matter of Wetlands , noting the definition of what constitutes a " wetland " -- " . . . lands and waters which contain aquatic or semi - aquatic vegetation such as wetland trees ; shrubs , emergent vegetation ; rooted , floating - leaved vegetation ; free - floating vegetation , wet meadow vegetation , bog mat ; and submergent vegetation , and have an area of at least 12 . 4 acres ( approximately 5 hectares ) or , if smaller , have unusual local importance as determined by the Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Conservation . " [ From the State Freshwater Wetlands Law . ] Mrs . Grigorov commented that it is more of an education law than a tough law regulating use of land , adding that certain plant life has to be there . Mrs . Grigorov noted that there are certain activities which could be carried on in regulated wetland without requiring a permit , however , most require a State permit with compelling reasons having to be shown for development . Chairman May thanked Mrs . Grigorov for her report . ADJOURNED PUBLIC HEARING ( FROM APRIL 17 , 1984 ) : CONSIDERATION OF PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION APPROVAL FOR A 4 - LOT SUBDIVISION ON RIDGECREST ROAD , BACKLOT OF 108 RIDGECREST ROAD INCLUDING , A . PORTION OF TOWN OF ITHACA TAX PARCEL NO . 6 - 45 - 1 - 2 . 2 ( 16 . 74 ACRES ) , PARCEL NO . 6 - 45 - 1 - 5 , AND PARCEL NO . 6 - 45 - 1 - 3 . GRACE CASCIOLI , OWNER ; ROBERT A . BOEHLECKE , JR . , ARCHITECT . Chairman May declared the Adjourned Public Hearing in the above - noted matter duly opened at 8 : 20 p . m . and asked Mr . Boehlecke if he had anything to add to what was discussed at the April 17th meeting . Mr . Boehlecke stated that he had no new information . Mr . Lovi noted that each of the Board members had received , with his / her Agenda , a copy of a group of purchase offers which indicate that both Mrs . Cascioli and Mr . Franciamone had made offers to purchase the triangular parcel , some 4 acres , which fronts on East King Road , Mr . Lovi stated that it was his understanding the Mr . Franciamone is still trying to contact Mr . Paul Erdman , the reputed owner . Mr . Lovi pointed out that , really through no one ' s fault , there is very little possibility for use of the back acreage along Ridgecrest Road because of the strip development years ago . Mr . Lovi commented that with the proposal of the owner to tear down or relocate the house at 104 Ridgecrest Road ( Parcel No . 6 - 45 - 1 - 3 ) , that area appears to be the only spot for a road given the difficulty of obtaining land for access on to East King Road . Mr . Lovi stated that , speaking off the top of his head , he would toss out for discussion the thought of condemning a spot for such an access in an appropriate place , something akin to • obtaining a sewer easement from an uncooperative landowner . Planning Board 7 May 1 , 1984 • Chairman May stated that Mr . Lovi had raised a very valid point , however , his only concern is whether these purchase offers which the owner has submitted to the Board for its consideration have validity , the question is , were these valid offers . Mrs . Langhans stated that she thought the offers were really quite low for over 4 acres of land . Mrs . Langhans stated that the ad hoc committee went up to the site and only Mr . Stanton and Mr . Franciamone were there . Mr . Lovi apologized for being unable to make it , explaining that he become involved with discussions about the Dormitory Authority SEQR matter until well after 4 : 30 p . m . that afternoon [ April 23rd ] . Mr . Stanton stated that Mr . Franciamone stayed in his truck and he and Mrs . Langhans walked the entire area , including the " gravel roadway " down into the back acreage , in the rain . Mr . Stanton stated that one thing that was quite impressive was that the land is relatively flat . Mr . Stanton stated that he , too , did not think that the documents submitted represent a really good faith effort to obtain this four - acre parcel . Mr . Stanton stated that the front yard of the first house , 108 Ridgecrest Road , is essentially a parking lot . Mr . Stanton commented that Mr . Franciamone was pretty clear , with respect to the empty house on the newly purchased parcel , 104 Ridgecrest Road , that the intent is to move that house back . Mr . Stanton stated that it seemed to him that a road through that lot which has been purchased and which is very close to the corner of Ridgecrest and East King Roads would be , still , a better alternative than what we have already denied which is a road right alongside those two buildings , 108 and 1082 Ridgecrest Road , and which is just gravel going back to the back land . Mrs . Langhans pointed out that if the back acreage were developed the proposed road would be very close to East King Road . Mr . Stanton commented that the intersection at Community Corners is no better , nor would it be as bad as that in East Ithaca in the area of Judd Falls Road . Mr . Mazza commented that just because there are a lot worse road problems does not mean that the Board wants to create another one . Mr . Stanton pointed out that the owner appears to be prepared to move or remove the house near the corner and stated that he was not as opposed at this time as he was earlier . Mr . Mazza stated that he still feels the same , adding that , in his opinion , they have not made a good faith effort to purchase the land . Chairman May asked if there were anyone present who wished to speak to the matter of the Cascioli subdivision proposal . No one spoke . Chairman May asked Mr . Boehlecke where he thought the owner stood now . Mr . Boehlecke stated that he was asked to report to the owner what action the Board took this evening and to answer any questions he was able to answer . Mr . Boehlecke stated that he did not know where the owner stands at this moment . Mr . Lovi stated that he thought a further adjournment of this hearing to be appropriate , with the Board asking for another good faith effort which could be shown to the Board not necessarily just for the purchase of the whole triangular piece but perhaps for a right of Planning Board 8 May 1 , 1984 • way . Chairman May stated that he would go along with one more adjournment with the understanding that the owner make a good faith offer specifically for the purchase of the 4 . 35 acre parcel , and , an alternative offer to purchase a right of way through that parcel , together with two appraisals of either the entire piece of 4 . 35 acres or a 60 - foot right of way as an access road into the property off East King Road . Mr . Mazza commented to Mr . Boehlecke that it should be clear that , by the submission of such documentation , approval should not to be assumed . MOTION by Mr . Edward Mazza , seconded by Mrs . Virginia Langhans : RESOLVED , by the Planning Board of the Town of Ithaca , that the Adjourned Public Hearing in the matter of the Cascioli subdivision request be and hereby is further adjourned until June 5 , 1984 , at 7 : 45 p . m . There being no further discussion , the Chair called for a vote . Aye - May , Langhans , Klein , Schultz , Stanton , Baker , Grigorov , Mazza . Nay - None . The MOTION was declared to be carried unanimously . • Chairman May declared the Public Hearing y �duly adjourned at 8 : 49 p . m . PUBLIC HEARING : CONSIDERATION OF PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION APPROVAL FOR A 2 - LOT SUBDIVISION AT 621 ELM STREET EXTENSION , TOWN OF ITHACA TAX PARCEL NO . 6 - 29 - 8 . 5 . 1 , 5 . 2 ACRES . KIRK C . SAPA , OWNER , Chairman May declared the Public Hearing in the above - noted matter duly opened at 8 : 50 p . m . Mr . Kirk Sapa appeared before the Board and stated that he wished to divide his parcel of 5 . 2 acres into two lots , one of approximately 3 . 2 acres upon which his home is located , and one of approximately 2 acres of vacant land upon which he will be building in the future . The Board members discussed Mr . Sapa ' s plot plan with Mr . Sapa , inquiring about the small box shown on the proposed parcel which contains Mr . Sapa ' s home . Mr . Sapa stated that that is shown because it is to be his garage . Mr . Stanton wondered if access to the newly - created , smaller , lot would , or could , be from Coy Glen Road where there is 100 feet of frontage . Mr . Sapa stated that that could be done , although the terrain is difficult . Mr . Sapa explained that many years ago , some 25 years ago , this land was • supposed to be a subdivision and the 472 feet of frontage on Elm Street Extension was supposed to be a road , but it was never 4 . Planning Board 9 May 1 , 1984 developed , however , it is fairly flat . The Board members agreed that Mr . Sapa ' s parcel does have a very peculiar shape . Chairman May inquired of Mr . Lovi if it would not be better to let the Zoning Board of Appeals look at the EAF . Mr . Lovi stated that he did not think so , adding that he had suggested going from the Planning Board to the Zoning Board feeling that the matter is more of a subdivision than a variance . Mr . Lovi stated that the Planning Board really has had more time and experience looking at subdivisions . Mr . Mazza stated that he felt that the purpose of the 'Zoning Ordinance would not be served by requiring the 100 - foot frontage for these two particular proposed lots given the strange configuration of the original 5 . 2 acre parcel . Mr . Mazza asked Mr . Sapa if the Board were to approve this subdivision with the stipulation that no further subdivision be permitted , would that be acceptable . Mr . Sapa stated that it was acceptable . Chairman May asked if there were anyone present who wished to speak to the matter of the Sapa Subdivision . No one spoke , the only persons present at this point being the members of the media . Turning to review of the EAF ( Short Form ) as signed and submitted by Kirk C . Sapa , under date of April 18 , 1984 , Chairman May noted that all questions had been answered " no " , and Mr . Lovi had reviewed the EAF , under date of April 26 , 1984 , making the following recommendation : " This minor subdivision will not present • any significant environmental impacts . The subdivider ' s plan will only provide 50 feet of road frontage for lot 29 - 8 - 5 . 1 and ' new ' lot 29 - 8 - ' ? 1 ; however , there will be in excess of 2 acres for the smaller , and 3 . 2 acres for the larger lot . The driveway for the existing house presently uses the 50 ' frontage to the west of the parcel . A similar driveway would access the proposed house on the second lot . A variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals will be necessary in order to permit the subdivision of a lot with substandard frontage . II recommend a negative declaration of environmental significance as follows : . . . " MOTION by Mr . Edward Mazza , seconded by Mr . Bernard Stanton * RESOLVED , that the Town of Ithaca Planning Board , acting as lead agency in the environmental review of the proposed 2 - lot subdivision development at 621 Elm Street Extension , Town of Ithaca Tax Parcel No . 6 - 29 - 8 - 5 . 1 , 5 . 2 acres , approve and hereby does approve the Environmental Assessment Short Form as completed , and FURTHER RESOLVED , that , pursuant to Town of Ithaca Local Law No . 3 - 1980 , this action is classified as Unlisted , and FURTHER RESOLVED , that the Town of Ithaca Planning Board has determined from the Environmental Assessment Short Form and all pertinent information that the above -mentioned action will not significantly impact the environment and , therefore , will not require further environmental review . • Planning Board 10 May 1 , 1984 ' There being no further discussion , the Chair called for a vote .
