RE:               Orangetown Jewish Center Plans: The application of Orangetown Jewish Center, owner, for the review of Sukkah Plans at a site known as “Orangetown Jewish Center  Plans”, in accordance with Article 16 of the Town Law of the State of New York and Chapter 2 of the Code of the Town of Orangetown. The site is located at 8 Independence Avenue, Orangeburg, Town of Orangetown, Rockland County, New York, and as shown on the Orangetown Tax Map as Section 74.14, Block 1, Lot 4 in the R-15 zoning district.

 

Heard by the Architecture and Community Appearance Board of Review of the Town of Orangetown at a meeting held Thursday,  June 20, 2013,  at which time the Board made the following determinations:

 

Karl Hess appeared and testified for the applicant. The Board received the following items:

1. Architectural Plans prepared, signed and sealed by Karl Hess, RA., dated

Sheet 2: Typical Sections, Elevations and Construction Detail

 

1. A Portion of a Site Plan, noting the location of the proposed construction.

 

1. Photographs of Sukkah structures.

 

FINDINGS  OF FACT:

 

1. The Board found that the Sukkah is a roofless structure, used during the week-long Jewish festival of Sukkot. It is topped with branches and decorated with an autumnal theme.

 

2. The Board found that the Sukkah would be constructed on an existing concrete sidewalk. The sidewalk would be increased on the south side to accommodate the structure.

 

3. The Board found that the structure would consist of concrete columns with wood rafters. The structure would be painted white.

 

4. The Board found that the applicant presented two construction options for the columns; Option A and Option B, as noted on the plans. Both options were acceptable to the Board, and agreed to allow the contractor select the option.

 

5. The Board found that the elevations denote the Sukkah to column 9; however the Sukkah plan shows it up to column eight. The plans shall be revised to depict the Sukkah to column eight.

RE:               Clover Leaf Inn Plans: The application of Diane and Richard Miller, owner, for review of an Outdoor Dining Area Plan at a site known as “Clover

Leaf Inn Outdoor Dining  Area Plan”,  in accordance with Article 16 of the Town Law of the State of New York and Chapter 2 of the Code of the Town of Orangetown. The site is located at 479 Western Highway, Orangeburg, Town of Orangetown, Rockland County, New York, and as shown on the Orangetown

Tax Map as Section 74.06, Block 3, Lot 4 in the R-15 zoning district.

 

Heard by the Architecture and Community Appearance Board of Review of the Town of Orangetown at a meeting held Thursday,  June 20, 2013, at which time the Board made the following determinations:

 

Richard F. Miller and Richard T. Miller appeared and testified. The Board received the following items:

1. Outdoor Dining Area Plan, noting the dimensions of proposed outdoor dining area.

 

1. Copy of property survey.

 

1. Photographs of the location of proposed dining area, benches and umbrellas.

 

FINDINGS  OF FACT:

 

1. The Board found that the applicant proposed to create an outdoor dining area on an existing asphalt area, southeast of the front restaurant entrance. The outdoor dining area would have four 24″ black round tables with 9′ red or green umbrellas. The dining area that runs along the sidewalk on Western Highway would be marked by 3 wine barrels placed approximately 10 feet apart, with ropes connecting the barrels. Five planters with flowers would be evenly spaced along the dining area that abuts the building. Two additional planters would be placed by the restaurant front entrance.

 

2. The Board found that the applicant would increase the number of barrels by placing two more along the boundary shared with the side parking lot. In addition, double roping would connect the barrels. The Board and applicant agreed to the revision and a revised plan was signed.

 

3. The Board found that the outdoor dining area would close at 9 p.rn.

 

4. The Board found that the barrels and rope would be a temporary plan since the applicant intends to place a fence around the area, sometime in the future.

 

The hearing was then opened to the Public. There being no one to be heard from the public, the Public Hearing portion of the meeting was closed.
