The applicant originally requested a change of zone to C-2. At the 9/27/ 2000 meeting, a recommendation was made by the Planning Board to the Town Board to deny the zone change request from R-1 and R-8 to C- 2 but to recommend approval of the amended zone change from R-1 and R-8 to R-6 for the reasons that the R-6 is the appropriate transitional zone change for this area of Route 57 and the potential combination of lots will help mitigate the traffic problems The applicant amended the original request for change of zone to R-6.

Mr. Ventre presented a copy of the section of the Route 31 and 57 land use and circulation study final report that suggested that “South of Route 31 between the Belgium neighborhood and Moyers Corners, local business uses are proposed for the residential parcels positioned between the existing retail and offices uses and the church. These parcels should be developed compatibly with existing uses. Parcels should be consolidated to provide the proper size lot which can be developed with respect to the required arterial setbacks and minimize the number of driveway cuts needed. Access should be shared between parcels wherever possible.” Town of Clay Planning Board Regular Meeting October 25, 2000 Mr. Ventre stated that this request for zone change incorporates this suggestion. He stated that the applicant purchased this 75 foot strip and that it will be joined with the adjacent parcel. It is being used for parking at this time, due to the fact that during the busy season, people are parking on Route 31. The owner is intending to expand his business at some future time if the zone change is granted. The owner will use a combined access for the parcels with no new curb cut onto Route 31.
Onondaga County Planning Agency commented that this zone change request incorporates the Route 31 and 57 land use and circulation study and stated that this parcel should be combined with the adjacent parcel and no new driveway cut should be permitted on Route 31.

00-7-6 Amy B. Benson and Douglas M. Jarvis- Zone change Recommendation -R-1 and R-8 to C-2 8252 Oswego Road (Route 57), Northeast corner of Redwing Drive- Hearing closed 9/13/2000 and Zone Change Recommendation adjourned from 9/13/2000 meeting Donald Doerr, attorney, sent a letter dated 9/27/200 to the Commissioner of Planning and Development formally requesting that the application for zone change from R-1 and R-8 to C-2 be amended to reflect a change of zone from R-1 and R-8 to R-6.
The applicant stated, in their letter, that they felt that an R-6 zoning classification would fit in with the Town’s Master Plan, as they would be maintaining the residential characteristics of the property. The only changes proposed to the residence were an ADA compliant ramp anda parking lot. The site plan also takes into account the residential neighborhood behind the property in question. The applicant stated that they intend to use the property only as a Travel Store. Their original intent was to incorporate a Travel store and.a drop-off dry cleaning service. The dry cleaning service will not be part of the plan.
Chairman Kovac asked if there were any questions.
James Keefe asked if the house was to be renovated. There will be no changes in the building, with the exception of an ADA compliant ramp. Mr. Keefe noted that the building will be a legal non- conforming structure, if the zone change is granted. He stated that there is room to demolish the building and construct a new structure that would be conforming and meet all setbacks. Counting Planning recommended that a C-2 zone change be denied Board members gave the following comments:
Karen Guinup felt that she was not comfortable with an R-6 zoning, It creates a legal non- conforming immediately, mirrors some of the problems that exist at the other end of Route 57 and that the entire corridor needs to be assessed.
James Keefe stated that he had an objection to the re-use of the existing home. He was definitely opposed to a rezoning of C-2. and wondered about the feasibility of an R-6. Allen Kovac stated that the legal non-conforming would be immediate and that he would like to see a new structure but that economics needs to be considered.
Walt Lepkowski agreed with an R-6, he felt that this parcel is not an ideal residential structure and that an R-6 provides a nice buffer.
Town of Clay Planning Board Regular Meeting September 27, 2000 Bruce Johnson felt that an R-6 is an appropriate zone. He would like to see a new structure but that it is not an issue for this zone change request.

James Sharpe stated that he felt that an R-6 is the less intense of the two zones and also stated that the existing structure will create a legal non-conforming.
Ferdinand Lepinske also felt that the R-6 request is the less intense of the two zone change requests.
Motion was made by Bruce Johnson, seconded by James Sharpe, to recommend to the Town Board
denial of the zone change request previously requested by Amy B. Benson & Douglas M. Jarvis for property located at 8252 Oswego Road (Route 57) from R-1 and R-8 to C-2 but to recommend approval of the amended change of zone from R-1 and R-8 to R-6 for the following reasons: e That the R-6 is the appropriate transitional zone change for this area of Route 57 e The potential combination of lots will help mitigate the traffic problems e Planning Board is making a recommendation to the Town Board, if they do approve the R-6, granting of the zone change should not be a measure meant to encourage the adaptive re-use of the existing sub standard structures, and that as a policy matter, the elimination of sub standard structures and replacement with conforming structures is the goal, and that any variances in the future should be looked at very carefully...
