3706, 3712 & 3720 State Route 31. (Adjourned from 3 previous meetings)
James Trasher of Clough Harbor Associates was present for the applicant. Mr. Trasher explained the plan. This plan will have a collision center, car wash, car dealership, and
-.,one parcel with no.tenant yet. He met with'O CW A and will include hydrant on the
amended site plan.
Al Kovac asked what the large parking area in the front along Rt 31 was for. Jim said that it was for displaying the cars; Al stated that in the past this type of display was a hazard. He is concerned that passers by will pull off onto the shoulder of Rt. 31 to look at the vehicles. Mr. Trasher assured Mr. Kovac that there is plenty of parking on the Site. Therefore that will not be an issue.
..Michelle Borton needs to see_more_labeling on the Site Plan. —
Karen Guinup asked Jim why they flipped car wash site with the dealership. The future building will have to be included in the Site Plan.
Hal Henty said that switching the car wash and the dealership doesn’t look like you will gain anything.
Karen questioned the dumpster; Mr. Trasher said there will be only 1 dumpster enclosure with 2 dumpsters and 1 recycle receptacle; to be used by all 3 buildings.
Russ asked about the dark lines on the plan, Mr. Trasher explained they represent the grading plan.
Karen said the parking spaces and the drive isles need to be 20 ft.
Jim Palumbo said the Plan is very difficult to decipher.
Michelle said it looks like there are 2 lateral sewers, that is very unusual. Will they be shared? James said no they would each have their own.
Ron DeTota said the applicant does not have to construct a lateral and cap it. That would be a big expense to the applicant. He also said that he is not sure if they can have a pond in a perimeter strip. Mr. Trasher said the State DOT wants a strip of land reserved for the
future.
The Rt. in Rt. out has to be drastic. So it is very clear.
Mr. Palumbo asked that the Plans be cleaned up.
Brian Hall asked where the car carriers would enter the site, Mr. Thasher sad they will enter on the last entrance. That would give the trucks plenty of room to turn and move around the Site.
Ron added that the engineers do have comments and will get with Mr. Trasher.
