2010-5-2 Joseph S. Janowski, Special Permit Advisory Referral-
Chairman Lepkowski opened the public hearing. Joseph Janowski presented the plan.
Mr. Janowski would like to relocate the Kinney drug store as well as add a drive thru for the pharmacy, for prescription pick up. Mr. Janowski said that WIC has been relocated in the plaza, and Metro Mattress will relocate if the Site Plan is approved.
Chairman Lepkowski asked if the plan included the whole building renovation or just the drive thru. Joe said that it shows the whole Kinney drug store at 11630 sq feet. The existing Kinney store is 11592 sq feet. There was some discussion about preventing people from driving behind the plaza.
Russ Mitchell suggested curbing to take care of that concern.
Karen Guinup asked if the 42 ft side yard set back included the columns for the drive thru. Mr. Janowski said it did not. There were some concerns with the Site Plan; David Balcer sent a letter to Mr. Chrissey, the Architect, pointing out 23 errors on the plan.
Chairman Lepkowski asked if he had received a copy of that letter, and he had. David Balcer said all but 9 of the issues had been addressed.
The Chairman said if you have the approved Site Plan for the Metro Mattress, then you should add the
approved variances to it for the new Site Plan.
Hal Henty asked if the Board recommends the Special Permit to the Town Board do we need a Site Plan. Scott Chatfield said the Site Plan is more than the drive thru. The Board could make a recommendation to the Town Board for the Special Permit, and the Town Board could send this back to the Planning Board if they so choose.
Chairman Lepkowski asked if there were any comments or questions, Mr. Dagnault Of 105 Riverine Rd, asked how Mr Janwski came to the conclusion that there would only be 4 cars per hour at the drive thru. He then asked about the snow removal.
Mr. Dagnault is concerned about the errors on the site plan. David Balcer said they are type-o’s or minor things that will be easily addressed.
Scott Chatfield said The Board can not approve anything tonight, they can only recommend to the Town Board.
Walter Lepkowski said if the Board makes a recommendation tonight, we want the the Site Plan to come back to the Planning Board.
A motion was made by Hal Henty seconded by David Hess to make a favorable Special Permit
recommendation to the Town Board using form # 60 for case # 2010-5-2 Joseph S. Janowski, 7608 Oswego Rd. with the following conditions:
