Brad Lawson, Operations Manage= r, explained to the Board that:

they have been gra= nted a Special Use Permit from the Town of Ellicott Zoning Board of Appeals= on 8/31/09

they want to const= ruct two additional homes in the park area

the homes will be = like the others that have been constructed=

the location of the homes are shown on the site plan map

they have petition= ed the Town of Ellicott for a right-of-way for an entrance off

Kimberly Lombard, neighbor, had questions concerning the driveway. Mr. Lawson told her the driveway w= ill come out the right-of-way if they get the easement from the Town. They have an alternative for the driveway if the easement is not granted

<= /span>

these homes will be for the elderly that can live by themselves

the original storm water management plan included an apartment complex - not having the apartment house and adding just the two homes will decrease the imperv= ious area discharging into the storm water ponds – a letter dated Aug= ust 17, 2009 was received by the Town of Ellicott from Paul Potter, PE<= /b> stating it will decrease - the NYS DEC does not require them the re-fi= le when the final project reduces the impervious area, therefore reducing= approximately 1440 SF – the siding would be charged to fit into the woodsy set= ting

they may have to remove a couple of trees but they do not want to cut any trees that th= ey don’t have to

utilities will be underground – the water will come off Gifford – the waterl= ine has been extended

Atto= rney Wright told the Board that this is a modification – they can go throu= gh the complete checklist or just the points they feel they need – they = have a letter concerning the storm water detention.

The Board decided to review the site plan checklist:

they have a stamped site plan by Paul Potter, PE

all the existing buildings are shown

the water runoff f= rom the building will be piped directly into the pond – no water wil= l go out unto Gifford

the Town has a let= ter from Paul Potter, PE attesting to the storm water management plan=

the house plans ha= ve been submitted

driveways will be blacktopped

no sidewalks =

no outside storage=

there are already fences in the park area

there is a new fire hydrant – the Town of Ellicott, Jamestown BPU and Tanglewood partnered to eliminate two dead ends on Gifford and loop them together and add another hydrant

no signs

the lighting will = be the same as on the other houses – two lights in the garage and a= decorative light right by the driveway

the houses will ha= ve a Gifford Ave address

planting schedule = will be similar to the other homes – Mr. Lawson showed the Board a pl= an

estimated construc= tion schedule – within one year

they need a permit from Chautauqua County South and Center Sewer District – a permit from the Jamestown BPU for the water and electric – the Special = Use Permit that has been granted by the Zoning Board and the easement from= the Town of Ellicott for the driveways – if they do not get the ease= ment from the Town they will use other two lots on Gifford

The County Planning Board referral that was joining made on behalf of both the Zoning and Planning Boards was received and their response was that this project = is of local concern

The Board reviewed the SEQR form noting:

Attorney Wright st= ated this proposed action does not exceed any Type I threshold in 6 NYCRR, = Part 617.4 and will not receive coordinated review

this property is z= oned residential

they are adding ho= mes with the same footprint as the others they have built

this proposed proj= ect will not have an impact on the environmental characteristics that cause the establishment of a critical environmental area
this proposed proj= ect will not result in any significant adverse environmental impacts<= /o:p>
