Regular Meeting Planning Board January 24, 2024

45 parking spaces, six loading docks, and exterior improvements on a 16.7-acre parcel in an Industrial (I-1) zoning district at 4583 Buckley Road. The site contains an existing warehouse on the eastern side of the property, a parking lot at the center of the lot and exterior storage at the rear, wooded and lawn areas cover the western and northern sides. The plan also shows a possible Phase II pavement expansion.

Chairman Mitchell had the following comments to the applicant on the presentation of this site plan: i

¥Y Drawings need to be in better order

¥ Buckley Road name needs to be visibly shown on the drawings

¥ Project area needs to be better defined i v Existing building needs dimensions shown :

Y Are there two different parcels or one?

Y Directions are incorrect on drawings

¥ Sub division needs to be provided before any further discussion :

Chairman Mitchell asked the applicant if this is for the whole parcel or a sub division. Ms. Samoray said on the layout plan there is a line indicating sub dividing the parcel and construct a warehouse facility on the western side of the lot with a 34 space parking lot between the building and road. The outdoor storage will be expanded for a proposed Phase I expansion.

Chairman Mitchell referred to the second set of plans which shows the location of the new building and had the following comments and corrections to be made:

¥ This set of plans actually is showing floor plan (toilets on them which should be considered in the floor plans)

Y Need total height of building

vY West elevation is actually the South elevation (where the front door is located)

Y South is West elevation (no door)

Y East elevation is actually North elevation

¥Y North elevation is actually East elevation

vY Elevation sheets should not be mingled with other sheets

Mr. Palumbo spoke on the landscaping plan and there should be low plantings of shrubs on the top of the berm along with the grass shown on the plan.

Ms. Borton referred to the resolution of the OCPB to be sure sign offs are obtained for easements belonging to NMPC, buckeye pipeline and petroleum gas line which crosses the rear of the site. Documentation is also needed as the site may contain Indiana Bat or its habitat. This area may have trees removed as part of the proposed project.

Ms. Borton asked about storage. Mr. Tormey, Buckley Warehouse, stated there is no tenant yet.

Mr. Territo, Commissioner of Planning, said zoning is vague because there is no product for storage at this time.

Ms. Guinup questioned six parking spaces. Driveway is 28 ft wide which reduces to 24 ft. This is a turning radius for trucks. Also, side yard setback is 25 ft per town code. Applicant is proposing 48 ft. Need to have this shown on plans.
