Robert Dentico & Peggy Richter, 2930 West Walworth Road (Forsay Lot #2), had concerns regarding dust from a gravel driveway and hours of operation.

Becky Cotter, 2890 West Walworth Road (Forsay Lot #1), inquired about lighting around the barn. Ms. Spinosa indicated this would probably be dust-to-dawn lamps.

PB-13-03 – Dickinson/Pecora – 1376 Canandaigua Road – Realty subdivision – Preliminary & final – Bob Seeley, Schwartz Surveying, explained this is a simple subdivision of .22 acres from the Pecora property onto the Dickinson property. Mr. Dickinson has maintained this area for several years and wishes to add it to his present parcel. Motion made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Mert Bartels, to grant negative declaration on SEQR. All in favor; motion carried. Motion made by Tom Ferreri, seconded by Kevin Rooney, to approve this realty subdivision. All in favor; motion carried.

PB-20-02 – Spinosa – West Walworth Road (Forsay Lot #4) – Ms. Spinosa explained this is a 48 acre parcel with a 40 ft. right-of-way access onto West Walworth Road. They would like to divide this into two parcels of approximately 10 and 38 acres, each with a 20 ft. right-of-way access. Forsay Lot #3 shares access with a 20 ft. right-of-way, for a total of 60 ft. on road front. Questions then arose from the Board regarding one driveway for all three lots vs. the two driveways being proposed by the Spinosas (one for Lot #3 and one for the divided Lot #4). Other areas of concern were the hours of operation, amount of traffic going in and out, number of stalls/animals, handicap parking, maximum number of people on the premises, parking during events/shows, hours of operation, width of driveway, dust control, shared driveway with Lot 3, access by emergency vehicles, delineation of utilities on plan, size of water service/hydrant for adequate fire protection, adequate electric service to meet demand for Lots 3 & divided Lot 4, and buffering along adjoining residential lots. Plan needs to be revised to show placement of utilities, type/size of water service, culvert pipe for ditch mid-way along driveway, additional buffering/extension of tree line and lighting plan for the barn. Applicant will return at the 8/25/03 meeting with revisions.
