Vote of the Board: Ayes: Wickham, Raynor, Coyle, Gordon *** Harold Reese. Sterling Forest. Mr. Reese appeared. The recommendations of the Town Engineer, Lawrence M. Tuthill, for a recharge basin among other things were reviewed. Mr. Reese said they had taken three or four test holes to about 14 feet and found Planning Board -2- June 6, 1977 there was not clay, there was loam. The southerly end is almost pure sand and gravel. He said Mr. VanTuyl seems to think that a leaching basin at each end would be sufficient. Mr. Wickham suggested that when the next test hole is done, one of the Town's inspectors should be there. It should also be shown on one of the maps. It should be done for each one of the catch basins. Mr. and Mrs. John Fellinger-Ihar. Mr. and Mrs. Ihar appeared. Mr. Scheinberg, the attorney, appeared. Mr. Ihar presented five maps and it was noticed that lot #22 does not have sufficient frontage. There was also discussion that the park and playground area was not sufficient. Mr. Wickham said lot #22 should be put into the park and playground area. Mr. Scheinberg asked if they could sell the lots along the road without the completion of the access roads. Mr. Wickham said they could sell all the lots on the road once they have a filed map. Mr. Wickham would like an update on the sand swales from the Soil and Water Conservation District. The recommendations already received were on a former map. Mr. Raynor asked about the ease- ment being paved over and Mr. Scheinberg said the Supt. of High- ways had indicated that they could grass it over. They were requested to get a letter from the Supt. of Highways about this. Mr. Tuthill suggested that a 15 foot easement for access to the recharge basin be in the back of lot #17 and make the front ease- ment only for the piping to the recharge basin and not access. Joseph Sowinski minor subdivision. Thomas Sowinski, son of Mr. Sowinski, appeared. This is a split of property from the Dalchet Corporation. Mr. Wickham said that the Planning Board had received a promise from the Dalchet Corporation that they would not dispose of any more lots without a major subdivision and it appears they have violated their promise. As far as Mr. Wickham is concerned, this Board is not prepared to approve a minor subdivision in view of this promise to the Board. Mr. Wickham said this would be taken up with the Town Attorney. Richmond Creek Farms. (Skwara farm) John R. McNulty, Esq. appeared. Mr. McNulty presented new maps and apparently there was a mis- understanding of what had been said at a previous meeting. It was mentioned that the grid pattern was not acceptable and what the Board meant to say was they wanted the intersections offset. There should be no access as much as possible from the State road. There was an extensive discussion about this layout and Mr. McNulty will resubmit. -3- June 6, 1977 Planning Board Gatz cluster. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gatz appeared. Mr. Raynor questioned the one-foot strip and Mr. Gatz said the matter is being settled by his attorney. It will be necessary to have a 100 foot setback line from the top of the bluff and a 50 foot setback from the road. They should keep about a 60 foot area. Provisions should be made for drainage. Rand subdivision. William B. Smith and Charles Rand appeared. Mr. Wickham had a question regarding the additional covenant and restriction for the Brionngloid-by-the-Sea subdivision owned by Mr. Rand. Mr. Rand added the words "north of Route 25", initialled it and signed the bottom. This was dated 5/23/77. Mr. Raynor remarked that he couldu't find anything in the restrictions regarding resubdivision of any lots. On motion made by Mr. Coyle, seconded by Mr. Gordon, it was RESOLVED to hold a public hearing on the preliminary map of the subdivision known as "Brionngloid-by-the-Sea" owned by Charles Rand and located in East Marion. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Wickham, Raynor, Coyle, Gordon. On motion made by Mr. Coyle, seconded by Mr. Gordon, it was RESOLVED to release for sale lot no. 7 as shown on the subdivision map of "Brionngloid-by-the-Sea" in East Marion, subject to receipt of covenants that lots l, 2, 3, 6 and 7 will not be further subdivided, such covenants to bind the successors in title. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Wickham, Coyle, Gordon Nay: Raynor Mr. Raynor asked to go on record as to the reason he was opposed to the above resolution. He questioned the releasing of a third of the subdivision without consultation with the Town Attorney as to the legality of the action. There was further discussion regarding requiring five per cent of the area for park and playground. Kouros. Edward Boyd, Esq. appeared. There was discussion regarding selling the piece of property with the 50 foot jog. Mr. Wickham said the Planning Board would insist that no one of these lots be further subdivided except to sell the 50 foot piece to one of the adjacent lot owners. Mr. Boyd will bring in the sketch plan. -~- June 6, 1977 Planning Board Ferend property. David J. Driscoll appeared. Mr. Driscoll presented a drawing of a cluster concept major subdivision. Mr. Raynor said there is a private right-of-way to this property and for a major subdivision there has to be a 50 foot road. The Planning Board will not approve of any major subdivision unless it has highways to town specifications. Mr. Driscoll has several options. To have five lots, he must determine if he can get the 50 feet necessary up to the property. If that avenue is closed, then a different map has to be drawn up to show a four lot minor with the garage on it and go to the Board of Appeals and say it has living quarters over it and you have a hardship. Mr. Driscoll will discuss the matter with his colleagues. Schriever change of zone application. The following letter is to be directed to the cemetery association. "We have a petition for a change of zone of property of William and Barbara Schriever presented to this board by the Town Board for our recommendations and we note that it is adjacent to the Orient Cemetery. We would appreciate having any comments from your association." Mr. Wickham would like all copies of correspondence from Mr. Schriever forwarded to the Planning Board. Bitses subdivision. Mr. Bitses is to be asked for more information on his proposed cluster concept subdivision. His meadowland must show on the map. Dikes, if any, must show on the map. Any land s~bject to flooding cannot be used in computation. Article XIII ~100-136 A (1) In computing the maximum number of lots that may be created, any lands which are subject to flooding or which are occupied by public utility easements in such a manner as to prevent their use and development shall not be considered part of the total gross area. On motion made by Mr. Gorden, seconded by Mr. Raynor, it was RESOLVED to authorize the chairman to sign the maps of the subdivision of D. T. and G. H. Smith. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Wickham, Raynor, Coyle, Gorden -5- ~une 6, 1977 Planning Board Albertson & Pfeil site plan.
