  1. TREE PROTECTION: The following note shall be placed on the Site Plan:

The Tree Protection and Preservation Guidelines adopted pursuant to Section 21-24 of the Land Development Regulations of the Town of Orangetown will be implemented in order to protect and preserve both individual specimen trees and buffer area with many trees. Steps that will be taken to reserve and protect existing trees to remain are as follows:

 

  1. No construction equipment shall be parked under the tree canopy.
  2. There will be no excavation or stockpiling of earth underneath the trees.
  3. Trees designated to be preserved shall be marked conspicuously on all sides at a 5 to 10 foot height.
  1. The Tree Protection Zone for trees designated to be preserved will be established by one of the following methods:

– One (1) foot radius from trunk per inch DBH

– Drip line of the Tree Canopy.

The method chosen should be based on providing the maximum protection zone possible. A barrier of snow fence or equal is to be placed and maintained one yard beyond the established tree protection zone. If it is agreed that the tree protection zone of a selected tree must be violated, one of the following methods must be employed to mitigate the impact:

– Light to Heavy Impacts – Minimum of eight inches of wood chips   installed in the area to be protected. Chips shall be removed upon completion of work.

– Light Impacts Only – Installation of ¾ inch of plywood or boards, or equal over the area to be protected.

The builder or its agent may not change grade within the tree protection zone of a preserved tree unless such grade change has received final approval from the Planning Board. If the grade level is to be changed more than six (6) inches, trees designated to be preserved shall be welled and/or preserved in a raised bed, with the tree well a radius of three (3) feet larger than the tree canopy.

 

  1. All landscaping shown on the Site Plans shall be maintained in a vigorous growing condition throughout the duration of the use of this site. Any plants not so maintained shall be replaced with new plants at the beginning of the next immediately following growing season.

Override

The Board made a motion to override Conditions #2 and #5 of the April 19, 2018 letter from Rockland County Department of Planning, signed by

Douglas Schuetz, Acting Commissioner of Planning, for the following reasons:

 

#2. If required by the Rockland County Stream Control Act, the subdivision plan must be reviewed and signed by the Chairman of the Rockland County Drainage Agency before the County Clerk can accept the plan to be filed.

 

The Board held that the proposed subdivision in a division of space inside an existing structure and is not filed with Rockland County Clerk’s Office.

 

A motion to override the condition was made and moved by Bruce Bond and seconded by Michael Mandel and carried as follows: Thomas Warren, Chairman, aye; William Young, Vice Chairman, absent; Bruce Bond, aye; Michael Mandel aye; Blythe Yost, aye; Stephen Sweeney, aye; Robert Dell, aye and Kevin Garvey, aye,

 

 

#5. An access way for Clausland Mountain Park exists along the southern boundary of the parcel.  Also, along the boundary of the site is parking that is used for truck trailer storage. A berm or evergreen landscaping must be planted along the southern boundary to shield the outside storage of trucks form the county park land.

 

The Board held that Berm is not necessary given the length of the access way to Clausland Mountain Park.  In addition, the Board held that the creation of the berm would create a disturbance to the site and the impact of the berm to the park would be de-minimis.

 

A motion to override the condition was made and moved by Thomas Warren and seconded by Blythe Yost and carried as follows: Thomas Warren, Chairman, aye; William Young, Vice Chairman, absent; Bruce Bond, aye; Michael Mandel aye; Blythe Yost, aye; Stephen Sweeney, aye; Robert Dell, aye and, Kevin Garvey, aye.

 

 

The foregoing Resolution was made and moved by Kevin Garvey seconded by Bruce Bond and carried as follows: Thomas Warren, Chairman, aye; William Young, Vice Chairman, absent; Bruce Bond, aye; Blythe Yost, aye; Robert Dell, nay; Stephen Sweeney, aye; Kevin Garvey, aye and Michael Mandel, aye.

 

The Clerk to the Board is hereby authorized, directed and empowered to sign this DECISION and file a certified copy in the Office of the Town Clerk and the Office of the Planning Board.

Override

The Board made a motion to override Conditions #2 and #5 of the April 19, 2018 letter from Rockland County Department of Planning, signed by

Douglas Schuetz, Acting Commissioner of Planning, for the following reasons:

 

#2. If required by the Rockland County Stream Control Act, the subdivision plan must be reviewed and signed by the Chairman of the Rockland County Drainage Agency before the County Clerk can accept the plan to be filed.

 

The Board held that the proposed subdivision in a division of space inside an existing structure and is not filed with Rockland County Clerk’s Office.

 

A motion to override the condition was made and moved by Bruce Bond and seconded by Michael Mandel and carried as follows: Thomas Warren, Chairman, aye; William Young, Vice Chairman, absent; Bruce Bond, aye; Michael Mandel aye; Blythe Yost, aye; Stephen Sweeney, aye; Robert Dell, aye and Kevin Garvey, aye,

 

#5. An access way for Clausland Mountain Park exists along the southern boundary of the parcel.  Also, along the boundary of the site is parking that is used for truck trailer storage.
