NEW BUSINESS:

PB-08-14 – Geoca Homes, LLC – Tanaberry Circle – One-lot realty subdivision & residential site plan – Preliminary & final – Ed Parrone of Parrone Engineering addressed the Board regarding this application. The proposed lot (Lot 25) was originally part of Home Properties’ Pheasant Run project. Geoca now owns the property and would like to develop one lot. The Town Engineer briefly explained the history of Pheasant Run, which was developed in four (4) phases. This section was to be the last phase. Concerns about where the drainage would go (Walworth vs. Macedon) resulted in Phase 4 not being built. The utilities are already in place; there is a turn-around at the end of the road; drainage for this lot stays within the Town of Macedon. This phase has been reviewed many times in the past and received sketch approval. The proposed home will be comparable to those already built as part of Pheasant Run. A motion for negative SEQR declaration was made by Greg Whitney, seconded by Mert Bartels. All in favor (Morrison absent); motion carried. A motion to grant preliminary and final one-lot subdivision and residential site plan approval for Geoca Homes, LLC, as presented, was made by Greg Whitney, seconded by Kevin Rooney. All in favor (Morrison absent); motion carried.

PB-09-14 – Wyman (Rousseau) – 3125 Kittering Road – Bed & breakfast – Kim Wyman was present to address the Board regarding her request. She has inherited her parents’ home and would like to use it as a bed & breakfast. The home is located across the road from her Harley dealership, and she would like to use a Harley theme for the bed & breakfast. The home has three (3) bedrooms and one & one-half bathrooms (1-1/2). As part of the conversion to a bed & breakfast, she would expand the half bath to a full bath and add two (2) outside decks. An existing in-ground swimming pool has been filled in. Ms. Wyman presented the Board with a copy of the “Recommended Member Standards” of the Finger Lakes Bed and Breakfast Association. She intends to operate her B & B to those standards, which include areas such as Business Credentials, Safety Requirements, Cleanliness, etc. The Town Engineer indicated he did not see any issue with the septic system as the number of bedrooms would remain the same. The driveway area would be adequate for the intended use. Ms. Wyman would also like to place a sign in front of the home. Sign will be within Code requirements. A motion to grant negative SEQR declaration for this bed & breakfast was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Greg Whitney. All in favor (Morrison absent); motion carried. A motion was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Suzanne Airy, to grant approval for the use of 3125 Kittering Road as a bed & breakfast. All in favor (Morrison absent); motion carried.

PB-10-14 – Dailey (Greene) – 835 Victor Road – One-lot realty subdivision – Mike Greene of Greene Land Surveying was present to address the Board. This is a 4.5 acre parcel with an old residence just south of the Wayne ARC building. The residence has been demolished, and the owner would now like to subdivide the land into two parcels of 1.11 acres (containing the old house site) and 3.35 acres. James Dailey, the owner of the property, lives immediately to the south of this parcel. In the future, he would like to make a boundary adjustment (50 ft.) between his property and the 1.11 acre lot. The 3+ acre parcel will be sold and possibly subdivided at a later date. A motion for negative SEQR declaration was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Greg Whitney. All in favor (Morrison absent); motion carried. A motion was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Mark McEwen, to grant preliminary & final approval for a one-lot realty subdivision as submitted. All in favor (Morrison absent); motion carried.

OLD BUSINESS:

PB-03-14 – Auto Zone – Route 31 – One-lot realty subdivision & commercial site plan – Preliminary – Joe Ardietta of Vanguard Engineering was present on behalf of the applicant. Since the last submission, Mr. Ardietta stated they have corrected the surveys and focused on utilities, lay-outs, grading, etc. They have moved the site to the south in order to capture more storm water to the north. The current property owner would like a storm water design done for the entire property at this time, not just for the Auto Zone lot. This will be done to the extent possible; however, total design cannot be done until uses for Lots 2 & 3 are identified. Sewer alignment has been agreed upon with the adjacent property owner. Depth of the water main has been checked, and there are no issues.

Other items:

· Applications need to be made to Wayne County Highway Dept., NYS DOT, NYS DEC and

NYS Health Dept., and their input received prior to final approval by the Planning Board.

· Need to locate leach lines on the Murphy mobile home park property. Town Engineer

expressed concern about disturbance during the construction phase.

· Town Engineer would like dedication of north/south section of sewer line (8”) with a 20 ft.

easement all the way to the south property line and possibly turning to the west property

line.

· Concern was expressed about drainage from the site “sheeting” onto Wayneport Road.

A slight swale could assist drainage in that area.

· WCWSA would like 8” main onto site for all lots; Auto Zone needs 1” service. Mr. Ardietta

will work this out with WCWSA.

· Storm water management – Two (2) bio-retention areas will take most of the surface

run-off for the site. However, Mr. Ardietta noted that 20% of the storm water flow comes

from off-site properties to the south.

· Building elevations – Parapet walls should be increased to screen mechanicals (including pads

they are set upon). Add features to entrance for more interest; i.e., peak or tower. Add

features to east & west sides for more interest; i.e., faux windows, bump-outs on the walls.

Mr. Ardietta stated that materials used would be three (3) colors of split-face block. Board

members suggested several recent retail businesses to use as examples – Lyons National

Bank, CVS, Prime/NOCO, Walmart, Lowes, etc.

A motion was made by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Mark McEwen, to grant preliminary site plan approval for Auto Zone. All in favor (Morrison absent); motion carried.

MINUTES:

A motion to approve the 07-14-14 minutes was made by Mert Bartels, seconded by Suzanne Airy. All in favor (Morrison absent); minutes approved.

ADJOURNMENT:

A motion to adjourn was made by Suzanne Airy, seconded by Mark McEwen. All in favor (Morrison absent); meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Susan Bush

Clerk to the Board
