Neville, Town Clerk From: Donald J. Wilcenski, Chairman Members of the Planning Board Date: March 28, 2019 Re: Change of Zone Request of RQA Properties, LLC Thank you for this second opportunity to review and comment on this proposed Change of Zone from Residential-40 to General Business for the property referenced above. After consideration of the surrounding zoning, and the current and potential future uses of the subject property, the Planning Board recommends that the Town Board deny this request for the following reasons: 1. The current business on the site does not require a zone change to continue operating. It is a legal pre-existing non-conforming use, which is permitted by Town Code to continue indefinitely. 2. Both the subject parcel and all surrounding parcels are also zoned Residential-40, which generally allows only residential uses. 3. The requested zone change is to the General Business Zoning District which permits some of the most intense commercial uses (e.g. gas stations, restaurants, large retail stores). 4. The property is located on the corner of a busy residential street. 5. The purpose of creating pre-existing non-conformities when enacting sweeping zoning changes, as was done in 1989, is to eventually cause a shift in uses over time towards conforming ones. While this hasn't happened in this case, continuing the existing zoning prevents a future use that is even less in harmony with the neighborhood. We have attached a zoning map of the area surrounding the subject parcel for your reference. cc: Scott Russell, Town Supervisor Members of the Town Board William Duffy, Town Attorney suffoc ELIZABETH A.
