NEW BUSINESS:

PB-06-11 – Marcucci – 2775 Canandaigua Road – One-lot subdivision & residential site plan – Log-in & sketch – Suzanne Airy was recused due to a conflict of interest. Engineer David Matthews of Shelley Associates was present on behalf of the applicant. The Marcuccis own 17+ acres with their single-family residence, block garage and three old barns/sheds. They would like to subdivide the property into two (2) lots and build a new home on Lot 1 (16 acres). Lot 2 (1.1 acres) will have the existing house and block garage. The two existing barns (Lot 1) and shed (Lot 2) will be demolished. Perc rates, driveway sight distance, driveway rise (8%), street trees and demolition of the barns were discussed. The Town Engineer requested a location map if the barn rubble was to be buried on-site. A motion to grant sketch plan approval was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Mark McEwen. All were in favor (Airy recused); motion carried.

PB-07-11 – Waste Management (High Acres) – 1965 Wayneport Road - Site plan approval – Transfer station & shooting range – Log-in & sketch – Luann Meyer and John Brusa from Barton & Liquidice were present on behalf of the applicant. Waste Management would like to build a 14,000 sq. ft. (120’ x 120’) transfer center for recyclables collected in Wayne County. The building would be a fabric covered, steel building with a concrete floor, similar in appearance to a salt shed. Recyclable materials collected from their customers will be dropped off and consolidated before being transported to a facility in Liverpool. Approximately 5 to 7 recycling trucks will be dropping materials each day, and once a week an 18-wheel tractor trailer will take the consolidated materials out. The facility will be located approximately 975 ft. off Wayneport Road and will not be visible from the road. Drop-off trucks may use the Wayneport Road entrance; however, the tractor trailers will use the Perinton Parkway entrance. The transfer facility will be for collection trucks only; the residential recycling drop off will remain on Perinton Parkway. In addition to the transfer facility, Waste Management is proposing a shooting range with appropriate berms constructed. Range use will be restricted to the Macedon and Fairport Police Departments.

Board members discussed sight distance at the Wayneport Road entrance, widening the entrance, paving the entrance for several feet to eliminate gravel being brought onto Wayneport Road, and the possibility of using the Perinton Parkway entrance exclusively. Applicant will clarify these issues before coming back to the Board. A motion was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Mert Bartels, to grant sketch plan approval with conditions that traffic patterns and sight distances be clarified. All in favor; motion carried.
