SKETCH PLAN REVIEWS:
ARLINE LEDERMAN
& EDWARD FRIEDMAN SUP# 21-0582:
Sketch Plan Review of a Special Use
Permit application to convert existing screened in porch to
an all season bedroom in the R5 and
Scenic Overlay Zoning District located at 128 Newcut Road in
Bearsville SBL# 15.4-5-5 Rep: Richard
Miller
Present: Arline
Lederman, Edward Friedman, Richard Miller and Scott Hughes
Notes: Mr. Cross read
the case summary and asked Mr. Miller to tell the PB what they are proposing to
do. Mr. Miller states that this is a
35.7 acre site with an existing single family home. They are proposing to replace the screened in
porch with a bedroom on the first floor, with a small deck connecting to the
other existing deck. Mr. Cross asked
about the size of the plans. Mr. Miller
states that it is a 360 sq ft addition but in the existing footprint. Mr. Cross asks the PB is it already existing
because of the screened porch being existing.
Mr. Miller continues describing the plans for the conversion: non reflective glazing on the back, the slop
is uphill, it won’t reflect in the valley and the lighting will be dark skies
compliant. Mr. Cross asks if the PB has
any questions. Mr. Lipkind asks if they
are doing work on the roof. Mr. Miller
states yes, replacing all of the addition.
Mr. Lipkind asks the materials they plan to use for the roof. Mr. Miller states that it is a dark asphaltic
shingle and describes the pitch they are going to create. The color scheme is in the master plan. Mr. Lipkind says Ok, thank you. Mr. Cross asks if the PB has any other
questions. Mr. Cross states that the
conversion has to comply with scenic overlay regulations in the town code. He believes we can go without further review
because they are just adding a minimal amount to the existing footprint. They get the building permit and it has to
comply with the scenic overlay guidelines.
He asks the PB if they think that will suffice for that case. Ms. Kerman states yes.
Mr. Lipkind suggests to stop further review due to it being
in the existing space and repurposing the existing space. The PB goes back and forth about the roof and
glazing requirements and agree to waive further review. Mr. Cross asks Mr. Lipkind to make a motion.
Stuart Lipkind: Make
motion to waive further review for case SUP# 21-0582 Arline Lederman and Edward
Friedman to grant approval with a special use permit / resolution with
conditions to comply within the requirements for the scenic overlay in all
aspects for this conversion of the porch into a bedroom.

Graydon
Yearick
Present: Graydon
Yearick
Notes: Mr. Cross asks
Mr. Yearick to tell the PB what they are planning to do. Mr. Yearick replies this is a 800 sq ft and
new garage, 3 bedroom, barn. Ms. Gray
reminds the PB that this is site visit Mr. Wenk did. Mr. Wenk states that it is pretty straight
forward. There is nice thick screening
at the base and overlook. It will have
electricity but no plumbing. He confirms
that with Mr. Yearick. Mr. Yearick
replies yes. There are four or five
trees that are coming down but they are dead as dirt. Mr. Cross asks the PB if they have any
questions. Mr. Lipkind states that they
can move this application along and proceed.
Ms. Gray states she will be in touch to schedule the public hearing.
16 DIXON AVENUE,
LLC SPR# 21-0381: Sketch Plan Review of a Site Plan Review application for a
modification to existing site plan to expand parking in the
LI Zoning District located at 16 Dixon
Avenue in Woodstock SBL# 26.60-4-6 Rep: Michael Lockwood
16 YERRY HILL ROAD,
LLC SPR# 21-0378A: Sketch Plan Review of a Site Plan Review application for
modifications to existing site plan to build an addition,
expand parking and improve drainage &
lighting in the LI Zoning District located at 16 Yerry Hill
Road in Woodstock SBL# 26.60-3-4
Rep: Michael Lockwood
Present: Ian Vinci and
Michael Lockwood
Notes: Mr. Cross asks
the applicant / rep to tell us what they are proposing. Mr. Vinci introduces himself as the president
of IPA and Peter Razzaq Vinci is part owner, also. We are at 234 Tinker Street, 16 Dixon Ave and
16 Yerry Hill, the old Simulaids building.
We started with six people and now have seventy-five people. We are growing very fast and are
expanding. We moved most of the manufacturing
into Dixon and are moving more into 16 Yerry.
We are light manufacturing with no chemicals, etc. There are lots of administrative jobs. The two properties are across from each
other. We want to bring Dixon’s parking
up to code and make it look better.
Michael did a good job with the site plan. For Yerry, it is a bigger plan. We had a demo permit last year. There were little dilapidated collapsing
sheds and we demoed them. We want to
build up for the warehousing for storage.
We are running out of space. We
brought two different plans today. There
is a field next to Yerry with about twenty trees or less, we would like to put
up apartment buildings in there. Ms.
Kerman shared her screen to show the parcel and discuss locations. Mr. Vinci continues that they would like to
have affordable income housing, $1250 – 1500, etc., six to ten units. This is a twofold plan. There is no place for anyone to live and it
is the town’s problem and it can be self-fulfilling. We want to have more apartments for people to
live. Everything is attached to it. We need to expand so we’re not choking, and
apartments to give people an affordable place to live for the town, in the
future. We aren’t here for the
apartments now, just want to give you an idea of where we are going. He asks Mr. Lockwood to pick up from
there. Mr. Lockwood asks the PB if they
have any questions. Mr. Cross states
there are two issues, within the existing plans, the parking regulations in the
Light Industrial Zone are different then in normal parking regulations. Also, lighting in the parking area needs to
be sufficient and dark skies compliant.
The apartments will be separate through the building department. He asks if the PB has any questions. Mr. Lipkind asks if we have the existing
parking. Mr. Lockwood replies that yes
you do, you have the existing site plan.
Mr. Cross replies we got the plans.
Mr. Lockwood and Ms. Gray discuss emailing a current site plan of the
parking. Mr. Cross states that we need
to do a quick site visit to take a look for the parking space and
additions. Mr. Lockwood further explains
that they are keeping the entrances, making it better by enclosing Yerry Hill
and directing people in and out better out of the site. The curb cut is wider than proposed. Mr. Cross states we’ll do a site visit. Mr. Lipkind states he has questions: what is the surface of the ground in the
parking area and drainage questions. Mr.
Lockwood states there are existing drainwells and check to see if they are
viable and we are putting in additional drywells. We will do perk tests to make sure they are
properly drained to collect storm water.
Mr. Cross states that the PB in the past has required skimmers at a site
near you. We would like you to have
skimmers in the dry well because you are over our town’s aquifers. The drywells aren’t introducing oils and
runoff. Any more questions from the
PB? Ms. Kerman replies no. Mr. Lipkind asks what their product line
is. Mr. Vinci states tools and equipment
repair after market for cars, fleets, military, etc. Anything that has a motor; Snap On and
Granger we work with. We make trailer
testers that scans and hand tools for vehicle maintenance. We have about 200 first time products, new
and innovative products. This is our 25th
year. We have 75 employees. Mr. Lipkind asks what the IPA stands
for. Mr. Vinci answers Innovative
Products of America. Mr. Cross asks if
we have two volunteers to be site reps.
We need to see the sign to entrance and changes that are going to be
made to the site. Mr. Wenk and Mr. Lipkind volunteer to be site reps. Mr. Lockwood states that he will send Ms.
Gray the existing parking plan. Mr.
Cross states that he is glad to see them doing so well. Mr. Lipkind asks Mr. Lockwood to mark the additions
on the site plan. Ms. Kerman states that
she appreciates the plans for apartments.
Mr. Vinci and Ms. Kerman continue their conversation about the size of
the parcels and the five acres between the properties. Mr. Cross states that we are happy to see
Simulaids building is getting a new life.

Mr.
Cross thanks Ms. Gray for this. Ms.
Kerman offers to show the map where it stands of these short term rentals. Mr. Cross thanked her. Ms. Kerman displays the map and shows the
concentration in the hamlet areas, also.
Ms. Gray said once we get through the 150 or more of these, she’ll work
on differentiating the owner occupied and non-owner occupied and add in the
building department cases that the PB didn’t see.

Discussion re: Criteria and Scope of
Proposed CEA (Critically Environmental Areas #2)
Ms.
Gray tells Mr. Cross the floor is his.
Mr. Cross says this will be a quick discussion of CEAs. The NRI and Hudsonia on the same maps. The idea is to look at them by overlaying the
layers we have. I suggest we invite the
NRI group to join in our next meeting and figure out how to put it
together. Ms. Gray states that she will
invite Ms. Blelock and Ms. Haeckel for the next meeting, if they are available. Mr. Cross states that Ms. Haeckel is doing a
presentation soon and hopefully we will all join in that. Ms. Gray states that she will get the meeting
information to the PB.
