TOWN OF MACEDON

PLANNING BOARD

October 27, 2008

PRESENT: Chairman Doug Allen, members Suzanne Airy, Brian Gagne, Mark McEwen, Tom Morrison and Kevin Rooney. Also present were Town Councilwoman Sandy Pagano, Town Engineer Scott Allen and Board Clerk Susan Bush.

Chairman Allen called the meeting to order at 7:30 p.m.

OTHER BUSINESS:

Filer’s Power Sports – 1136 Route 31 – Sign – Ted Filer was present to explain his request. Previously, an area variance was granted for a new pylon sign; however, the planned location (grass area east of driveway) could not be used due to unmapped underground utilities. Mr. Filer would like to move the sign to a location in the front lot just west of the building’s main entrance doors. There will be sufficient room on each side of the pylon for traffic to flow around it (customers coming in for service), and traffic patterns will be clearly marked. Sign dimensions are the same as approved by ZBA, only the location has changed. New location will meet setback requirements. Base of structure will be brick or stone in keeping with other recently approved pylon signs. A motion to grant approval for a sign permit was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Brian Gagne. All in favor; motion carried.

ZBA REFERRAL:

Z-08-08 – Heckman – 1821 Walworth Road – Area Variance – Sections 135 Schedule I & 135-162-B – Front & side setbacks for garage addition – Board gave a positive referral.

LOG-IN:

PB-18-08 – Home Leasing/Gananda Partnership – Hance Road – Six-lot subdivision & residential site plans – Members briefly reviewed this submission. Questions were raised about the stormwater quality pond on Lot 3 and fill (old barn) used on Lot 5.

MINUTES:

A motion to approve the 10-13-08 minutes was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Tom Morrison. All in favor; minutes approved.

ADJOURNMENT:

A motion to adjourn was made by Suzanne Airy, seconded by Mark McEwen. All in favor; meeting adjourned at 8:07 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Susan Bush
