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.

Town of Clay Planning Board Regular Meeting September 13, 2000 Presently, the travel store is located at 8017 Oswego Road. The applicant wishes to keep the existing driveway curb cut on Route 57. The applicant will add additional screening in the rear of the property by planting additional trees.

The applicant is requesting the change of zone to permit the construction of a Hess gas station and convenience store, with the C-5 request for the purpose of the construction of a shopping or retail area. Paul Curtin explained that with the current zoning of R-4, 60 apartment units could be constructed. He stated that he does not believe that R-4 zoning is appropriate for the area. He stated that under the current R-4 zoning this land has not been developed. The parcels surrounding the area have been rezoned and the applicant is very sensitive to the residential in the area and will propose a large setback to shield them from the proposed commercial development. Dennis Kennelly, Engineer, stated that the site has been surveyed, there are no engineering issues that cannot be mitigated and that the existing systems can service this site. The applicant is proposing a 3,500 square foot building with 17 parking spaces in the front. There will be 8 islands for gas service. There will be one access from Bear Road and one from Buckley Road. He stated that there would be no increase in traffic in the area due to the proposed Hess facility.

Commissioner Tessier stated the following: e That the residential parcel to the south is R-1 e That the Onondaga County Planning Agency recommends that the C-5 portion of the zone change request be DISAPPROVED for the following reason: e Rezoning the 7.1-acre site is not necessary for the development of the gas station and if this property is to be rezoned to another zoning district, the Town should consider a district more compatible with surrounding residential land use. No matter what zoning district is eventually selected for this property, proper buffering and protection of residential areas and protection of the functioning of the two county highways should be prime consideration. e The R-4 to C-4 zone change proposed for the 1.8 acre corner site will have no significant adverse inter-community impact or county-wide implications and may consequently be acted upon solely by the referring board. e That the Town Board has established the status of lead agency e That a DEIS will be required for the zone change Chairman Kovac asked for those in favor of the project and for those against the project. The following residents asked to comment. Ed Roesch asked what effect this station would have on the Hess Station that is currently located on Route 57. He listed the surrounding Hess Stations and their proximity to the proposed station. Louis Colangelo, requested the applicant submit a set of drawings, a copy of the minutes from the Town Board meeting and a copy of the OCPB recommendation. He asked if the C-5 portion of the zone change is not approved what would happen. e Rezoning the 7.1-acre site is not necessary for the development of the gas station and if this property is to be rezoned to another zoning district, the Town should consider a district more compatible with surrounding residential land use.

James Keefe gave the following recommendation for parcels that are currently zoned A-1 in this area Starting with the parcel closest to John Glenn | Should be zoned R-6, or if combined with the Boulevard adjacent R-6 parcel, they could both be changed to C-1 and utilize a right of way to Laurel Lane across the rear of the C-2 parcel to the North.

The property Between the proposed credit union | Should be rezoned C-1 or R-6, and combined and the R-6 with the adjacent parcel.

Signs: Buckley Park Apartments, (Morgan Gardens) Commissioner Tessier advised the board that the applicant is requesting 3 signs. One free standing sign at the entrance to the apartments that will be 4 x8 feet. The other two signs are wall signs, which are 4 x 8 feet. The planning board discussed the fact that the applicant may need a variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals, as this parcel is located in a residential district and that the wall signs may be offensive to the area. The zoning code allows for only one sign in a residential district as stated on page 30.106 of the zoning regulations for the Town of Clay. Motion was made by Bruce Johnson, seconded by James Sharpe, to approve the one free standing sign for Buckley Road Apartments. Approval of the 4 x 8 foot flat wall signs could be visibly offensive to the area. If the wall signs are approved by the ZBA for the building, they should be individual letters, which would be more aesthetically pleasing. There was no permit number for this sign application. Motion Passed. Old Navy(Great Northern Mall) The applicant is requesting two wall signs, one for the front of the mall and one for the back of the mall for their store.

Motion was made by Karen Guinup, seconded by James Sharpe, to approve the signs as submitted in permit # 32639 Old Navy (Great Northern Mall) based on the fact that the size of the store is approaching anchor size and that individual stores not having a separate entrance would not be appropriate for the same type of signs.

There should also be a pedestrian connection between this site and future development to the north.

Town of Clay Regular Meeting Planning Board January 26, 2000 Page 2 of 6 C&S engineers letter was addressed. The applicant has no problem mitigating any of the concerns. James Keefe, questioned whether the day care fits into the C-5 zoning regulations or the C-1 zoning regulations. He quoted C-5 zoning regulations from §3048-C. He stated that C-5 has very stringent setback requirements that the applicant may not be able to meet. The question arose as to whether the day care was more comparable to C-1 zoning. Another alternative would be applying for a zone change from Willowstream PUD to Children’s Discovery Zone PUD. It was also suggested that perhaps the applicant could apply to the zoning board of appeals for an interpretation. The Planning Board reviewed the landscaping plans with the applicant. The fire department was pleased with the construction of the building and that there will be an alarm system and sprinkler system for the building. The applicant needs to review their request and decide if the proposed use is a day care center or a nursery school. Zoning needs to be considered, along with setback requirements. A special permit will need to be obtained from the Town Board. James Keefe stated that according to §3035 of the zoning book, the structure cannot cover more than 20% of the site. The applicant needs to review this section of the code. James Keefe, questioned whether the day care fits into the C-5 zoning regulations or the C-1 zoning regulations.

Peter White, Senior Housing, representing Christopher Community, briefed the board on the proposed plan for Parcel C. Christopher Community is a non-profit organization that intends to build 54 apartments on parcel C. Parcel C is approximately 4.81 acres. The first phase of the plan is to build one apartment building with 30 units for low to moderate income seniors. Income limitations would be between $10,000 and $16,000 and the applicants would need to be 55 years of age or older. The apartments would be one-bedroom apartments. Christopher Community would like to see the second building that will be constructed on the site for low-income seniors. That building would have 24 one-bedroom apartments. The construction of the second building will need a variance. The second building is not in the immediate plans for construction. Parking spaces for the 30 units would be one per apartment. The applicant feels that this is sufficient for the type of tenants this building will accommodate. This will require a variance to the Town requirement of two parking spaces per apartment. Matthew Broderick, Architect, described the apartment building as a 30 unit, two story building. The first floor will have common spaces, the second floor will house the apartments. The building will have a wood frame with wood trusses. A pitched roof will be used on the building. There will be a full alarm system and a full sprinkler system.

Town of Clay Regular Meeting Planning Board January 12, 2000 Page 3 of 5 Ron DeTota, C & S engineers, discussed his letter to the applicant. He stated that the wetlands should be delineated on the map, utilities should be shown, culvert sizes should be shown and building setbacks should be shown. Some of the lots are in the floodway and some of them are within the 100 year flood plain. Any structures that are placed within the flood plain should have no opening below , and a minimum finished floor elevation of 370 feet , USGS datum. It appears that Lot #5 is totally in the floodway and is not a developable lot. Part of Lot # 4 appears to be in the flood way. Lot # 1, #2 and # 3 appear to be developable at this time. Chairman Kovac suggested that the applicant select the lots that are able to be developed at this time and resubmit the application. The applicant needs to show elevations on the map to delineate the flood plains. He needs to truly define the lines of the floodway and the flood plain.

Her concern was the difficulty that any customer would face in attempting to exit this location and attempt a left turn onto Route 57. Her feeling was that, if pressed in a public forum, she would have to acknowledge that a left turn out of this location would be difficult at best. He also stated in his letter that in his discussion with the representatives of the County Highway Department, they indicated that because of the change of use, and that is from a real estate office to a bank, they would require the bank to file an application for a new curb cut permit even if the bank made no modification to the existing driveway. They stated that even if the Town of Clay overrode the negative vote of the OCPB, the County Highway Department would not issue the permit for the curb cut. Onondaga County Planning’s recommendation, dated October 5, 1999, was for disapproval. The ingress and egress for that site for a bank would not be approved by County DOT. The applicant stated that the Bank was working on a shared access with Friendly’s. Mr. Lamb stated that they would like to come back with a new proposal. The bank’s goal would be to maintain the setting, Motion was made by Walter Lepkowski, seconded by James Keefe, to disapprove the application Page 4 of 5 Mr. McAuliffe discussed the traffic problems with traffic consultant, Cindy McCormick of the Sear- Brown Group.
