Old Business #1 Benderson Development, vacant land, southeast corner of Southwestern Blvd. & Orchard Park Rd., request for a Building Permit, Positive Declaration , schedule scoping session.

 

1) THE FOLLOWING RESOLUTION WAS OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN JEMIOLO, WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN MILLS, TO WIT:

 

WHEREAS, the Attorney for Benderson Development has requested that the Town Board table the request of Benderson Development for a Building Permit to construct a ± 158,244 sq. ft. retail plaza,

 

NOW, THEREFORE, be it

 

RESOLVED, that the Town Board does hereby authorize that this petition be tabled.

 

Councilman Buyer stated he is opposed to tabling this item tonight, especially after it was tabled three weeks ago at the request of the developer and now he is requesting to table it again. The issue here revolves around making a positive or negative declaration, as it relates to the State Environmental Quality Review Act, or if an Environmental Impact Statement needs to be done or not. He feels it is in the best interest of the petitioner to proceed at this time, as all the materials received, plus the document received today. All this information could constitute the body of the Environmental Impact Study. Councilman Buyer said a project of this size, or any project of this size, should be taken through the entire environmental project. He stated that by tabling the decision tonight, it might possibly delay the process to the point that it will be difficult to declare a positive declaration, which this project should have. Also, in asking the Town Board to table the decision tonight, the petitioner himself is delaying the project and process. Much of this work, the Environmental Impact Statement, the scoping session and the review of the material, could be done concurrently.

 

Councilman Mills stated that the Town Board members and some of the Planning Board members met with the petitioner and his attorney Ralph Lorigo last week. They spent three hours discussing issues the Planning Board and the Town Board had with this project. The petitioner was given many different items to be addressed and attorney Ralph Lorigo brought them back to the Town Board today for review.

 

Although Councilman Mills stated he does agree with Councilman Buyer on some issues, but he also feels the considerable information returned to the Town Board this evening does deserve an extensive look at. He also stated since the petitioner’s attorney requested that this item be tabled until the next meeting he has no problem with reviewing the information and waiting.

 

Councilwoman Ackerman said that the Town Attorney and Town Engineer were present at the meeting with the petitioner as well. When she compiled the items of concern to be addressed by the petitioner, Councilwoman Ackerman asked for the input from everyone present. The response to the Town Board’s concerns was returned tonight from the petitioner is quite extensive, and it will require time to review.  This document is in essence, a response to a Part 3 of the Environmental Process. She stated not until the document submitted tonight is reviewed, they will not know if they have the material to do a positive declaration. She added that at the request of the attorney of the developer, the Town Board is going to review the document as quickly as possible and if there are still outstanding issues, and if things in this document are not to their satisfaction, (the Planning Board and Conservation Board will also get copies of this document) and, if they feel the need for a Positive Declaration, that is the appropriate time to do it.

 

Councilman Jemiolo said he made the motion to table this item at the request of the petitioner’s attorney and for the opportunity to review the document that was delivered tonight. If he were a member of the Planning Board, he would have recommended a Positive Declaration too. But, since the time that the Planning Board issued their recommendation, so much information has come to the Town Board, it needs to be reviewed and studied before an informed opinion can be made.

 

Supervisor Cudney stated she will table this issue at the request of the petitioner. But, she also stated she has felt, from day one, that this project should have a positive declaration.

 

                                                                                                Supervisor Cudney                    Aye

                                                                                                Councilman Mills                       Aye

                                                                                                Councilman Buyer                     Nay

                                                                                                Councilwoman Ackerman          Aye

                                                                                                Councilman Jemiolo                   Aye

 

The resolution was duly adopted.
