October 22, 2012

PRESENT: Members Suzanne Airy, Mert Bartels, Mark McEwen, Tom Morrison, Kevin Rooney & Greg Whitney. Also present were Town Councilman David McEwen, Town Engineer Scott Allen and Board Clerk Susan Bush. Absent was Chairman Doug Allen.

Vice Chairman Bartels called the meeting to order at 7:35 p.m.

NEW BUSINESS:

Reynolds (McEvoy-Curtain) – 2309 Macedon Center Road – Town Board referral – Expansion of non-conforming use (addition to existing motor vehicle repair shop) – Applicant Ron Reynolds was present to explain this request. He would like to add a 40 ft. x 40 ft. addition to the rear of his existing shop. This would allow additional space for him to service/inspect trucks which cannot be accommodated in his present building. The roofline of the addition will be approximately 2 ft. higher than that of the present building. Garage doors will be located on the north side (rear) of the addition. Board members gave a positive referral for this proposal.

LOG-INS:

PB-13-12 – Kunzer – Canandaigua Road – Single-family residential site plan

PB-15-12 – Mancuso (Green) – Macedon Center Road – Single-family residential site plan

ZBA REFERRAL:

Z-12-12 – Haak – 1437 Wilson Road – Area Variance – Section 135 Schedule I – Side setback for accessory structure – The applicant would like to build a detached garage next to his home and is requesting a 1 ft. side setback (variance of 14 ft.). Board members gave a negative referral for this request. They felt: (1) 1 ft. would be too close to the property line; 5 ft. would be a minimum setback. (2) If garage were attached to home, applicant could request a variance for a 7 ft. setback. (3) A letter of support from the adjoining property owner should be provided.

A motion to approve the 09-24-12 minutes was made by Suzanne Airy, seconded by Kevin Rooney. All in favor; minutes approved.

Minutes of the 08-27-12 meeting could not be approved due to lack of correct quorum.

ADJOURNMENT:

Respectfully submitted,

Susan Bush

Clerk to the Board
