FINDINGS OF FACT:
- The Board found that the project consisted of an expansion to an existing warehouse building with associated off-street parking, loading, sidewalk and stormwater management improvements. The addition would align with the back portion of the existing structure. All new parking on the south side of the building are aligned towards the building to cut down on the glare from the car lights.
- The Board found that the plans were modified according to the Planning Board conditions; a Rain Garden would be designed instead of the proposed stormwater noted on the site plan, and the driveway would be closed to create an interior connection to the existing driveway entrance.
- The Board found that the 100 foot vegetative buffer on the eastern property line is approximately 20 feet higher in elevation than the building.
- The Board found that the building addition materials would be Concrete Masonry Unit Wall, or equal, metal siding and a metal roof. The color scheme of the addition would be tan and brown; the metal siding would be Light Stone, or equal; the color of the trim would be Burnish Slate, or equal, and the roof would be galvanized silver, or equal; consistent with the existing structure.
- The Board found that the seed mix in the Rain Garden would be a specific mix required by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).
- The Board found that the outside lighting would be a minimal amount of mounted light fixtures on the building, all down lit. The lights would be on a timer.
- The Board found that there had previously been an incident on the site and DEC monitoring remains; large fans creating noise.
- The Board found that the applicant considered the creation of additional noise in its design of the site; placing signs on site against trucks backing up, alleviating the existing fork lift noise by bringing that function inside the new structure and maintaining the existing vegetative buffer.
- The Board found that the applicant would re-appear as “Other Business” after the Town of Orangetown Zoning Board provides its final determination.
