10. A Short Environmental Assessment Form signed by Zaki Albanna, dated November 5, 2007.
11. Subdivision Plan prepared by Dominic R. Pilla, Associates, P.C.,dated August 5, 2008.

 

The Board reviewed the plans.

 

Public Comment: Peter Colquitt, 257 South Boulevard, an abutting property owner, raised concerns regarding the location of the proposed dwelling. He also requested information regarding the impact of the development on drainage on his property.

 

The proposed action is classified as an “unlisted action” as defined by Section 617.2 (ak) of the New York State Environmental Quality Review Regulations (SEQRR). No agency, other than the Orangetown Planning Board will have any significant involvement in the review process, pursuant to Section 617.6 of SEQRA. On motion by Bruce Bond and seconded by Kevin Garvey and carried as follows: Bruce Bond, aye; Anthony Iurica, aye; William Young, aye;

Robert Dell, aye; John Foody, absent; Jeffrey Golda, aye and Kevin Garvey, aye the Board declared itself Lead Agency.

 

The Orangetown Planning Board, as lead agency, determined that the proposed action will not have a significant impact on the environment and a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) will not be prepared. The reasons supporting this determination are as follows:

 

It will not have a significant impact upon the environment and a DEIS will not be prepared because the proposed action does not significantly affect air quality, surface or ground water quality, noise levels, drainage or existing traffic patterns.

In addition, it will have no impact upon the aesthetics, agricultural or cultural resources of the neighborhood and no vegetation, fauna or wildlife species will be affected as a result of the proposed action.  The proposed action is consistent with the Town’s Master Plan and will not have any adverse economic or social impacts upon the Town of Orangetown.

 

 

On motion by Bruce Bond seconded by Kevin Garvey and carried as follows: Bruce Bond, aye; Anthony Iurica, aye; Robert Dell, aye; John Foody, absent;

William Young, aye; Jeffrey Golda, aye and Kevin Garvey, aye the Board made a Negative Declaration.

16. 16. Water is a limited resource in Rockland County; thus proper planning and phasing of this project are critical to supplying the current and future residents of the Towns, Villages and County with an adequate supply of water. Prior to approval of the proposed project, a letter from the public water supplier shall be issued, indicating that there will be a sufficient water supply during peak demand periods and in a drought situation.
17. There shall be no net increase in stormwater runoff from the site.

21. 21. Rockland County Department of Highways reviewed the plans and offers the

following comments:

• Based upon the information provided, the design as shown will have no

foreseeable adverse effect upon County Highways in the area.

• The applicant shall be aware of any and all existing water sources and water

courses that may exist traveling from west to east though this parcel. This

information shall be identified on the Site Plan to identify and potential drainage

problems that may be created to the proposed and existing dwelling, roadway

and parcels east of this subdivision. If applicable, it may be prudent at this time

to provide for a drainage easement while this parcel is under a single

ownership.

• A Zero Net increase of storm water runoff must be achieved to prevent any

adverse effect to the neighboring parcels and the roadway east of this

subdivision.

22. The Rockland County Department of Health offered the following comments:

1) Verification is to be obtained from the Water Supplier that adequate pressure can be provided to the proposed dwelling. The use of an individual home booster pump is not permissible. Any questions regarding this should be directed to Sam Rulli, P.E. of the Environmental Health Program.

23. Where a reservation of land for recreation purposes has been deemed by the Planning Board to be inadequate, Money in Lieu of Land for recreation purposes must be collected in accordance with Section 21-20 of the Land Development Regulations ($9,000.00 for every vacant new residential lot). In addition, for every new vacant residential lot, $80.00 will be collected for the Stream Maintenance Fund.
24. The New York/New Jersey Trail Conference reviewed the plans and found the proposed action would have no impact on the Long Path hiking trail. The Long Path shall be indicated on the Vicinity Map on the project since it is a feature of the Rockland County Official Map within the area shown.
25. The Drainage Consultant to the Planning Board recommends acceptance for drainage subject to the following conditions: The Applicant proposes to subdivide a 3.56-acre parcel in Upper Grandview into two lots. Lot 1 contains an existing dwelling that will remain.  Lot 2 is vacant and will have a new dwelling and driveway constructed on it.  Access to this parcel will be from a combined new driveway from South Boulevard that will serve both lots.  The existing driveway on Lot 1 will be removed.  A new pool and paved patio are proposed for Lot 1.  Site topography slopes down steeply from west to east toward South Boulevard. The proposed drainage plan includes an onsite storm sewer and swale collection system, a storm water storage/infiltration area and driveway trench drains and drywells. Drainage calculations have been provided.

Upon review of the proposed drainage plan and calculations, the Drainage Consultant to the Planning Board found that both are in need of revisions. However, the Drainage Consultant believes that the overall drainage concept is workable and that it can be revised to achieve a zero net increase in runoff rate and therefore recommends acceptance for drainage subject to the following conditions:

 

• This Subdivision Plan is being submitted to the Planning Board concurrently with a Site Plan for Lot 1 (which is the subject of a separate review). The drainage plan for the Subdivision is dependent on drainage facilities located on Lot 1 and therefore the two drainage plans must be consistent.

 

• Runoff from Lot 2 will be discharged to drainage facilities on Lot An easement on Lot 1 on behalf of Lot 2 for drainage will be required. An agreement for repair and maintenance of the shared drainage facilities will also be required. The appropriate easement and agreement notes must be added to the plans.

 

• The drainage facilities shown on the Utility Plan (Sheet SP-02) are unclear and difficult to read. The information related to drainage must be legible and easy to distinguish from other plan information. If necessary, the drawing scale should be increased.

Continuation of Condition #25…..

 

 

• An enlarged (larger scale) detail of the storage/infiltration area must be provided and shall show all dimensions to permit construction. Grading contours must be shown on the detail. The extent of the temporary ponding area and maximum water elevation must also be shown.

 

• The Rockland County Department of Health must be contacted to determine if a Mosquito Breeding Prevention Plan is required and the Applicant shall obtain approval of such plan if required.

 

• Curbs must be provided on the low side of the driveway to direct runoff into the catch basins and ultimately into the storage/infiltration system (concrete walls may substitute for curbs). The driveway cross section must be revised accordingly to show the curbs.
• Provide profiles of the storm sewer and swale collection systems.

 

• Swales must be stabilized so that they do not erode due to high stormwater velocities. The swale detail shown on the plan does not agree with the detail in the calculations and must be revised.

 

• The total impervious area for the site is given as 7,416 SF and 33,617 SF for existing and proposed conditions. A breakdown of these areas between Lot 1 and Lot 2 must be provided.

 

• Calculations for sizing the on-site storm sewers must be provided. Minimum storm sewer pipe size shall be 12-in.

 

• Provide a plan view of the Trench Drain Lawn Inlet to scale and show the orientation of all pipes, including the pipe from CB-4.

 

• The storm drain from CB-4 must run in a straight line to the Trench Drain Lawn Inlet without bends.

 

• Calculations for sizing the drywells have been provided, however the Drainage Consultant requires that the Westchester County Method be used for sizing drywells. The calculations do not indicate the area or runoff for which the drywell has been designed.

 

• The calculations indicate an existing condition runoff volume of 3.00-in. Our check of this calculation indicates a runoff volume of 2.88-in. This difference increases the required storage/infiltration volume from 7,751CF to 9,256CF. The calculations and plans must be revised.

 

• The calculations indicate two 36-in pipes in the trench, however only one is shown on the plans. The calculation and the plans must be consistent.

 

Additional conditions may be added based on response to these conditions.

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 truck 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.

33. 33. 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.

4. The Rockland County Department of Health reviewed the plans dated September 20, 2006, revised September 29, 2008 and approved the plans for the proposed subsurface disposal system on July 16, 2008, and has no objection to the existing dwelling continuing to use of the existing system. In addition, the Rockland County Department of Health has no objection to the approval of this subdivision.
5. 5. The applicant needs to secure private sanitary sewer easements in order to “tie” into the existing sanitary main across Western Highway. These shall be acquired prior to signing the Subdivision Map. Copies of same shall be depicted on the plans and submitted to DEME and the Planning Board.
6. 6. The final subdivision map submitted shows septic systems, existing and proposed on Subdivision lot #2. DEME and Rockland County Department of Health will have to review and provide comments on the current sewage arrangement before the Planning Board grants reapproval of the subdivision.
7. Because the Perc Rate is assumed, a field Perc Test shall be administered prior to receiving final approval for site plan, to ensure adequacy of designed drainage system. The applicant’s engineer shall provide a copy of the field Perc Test to DEME and the Building Department.
8. 8. The applicant shall provide DEME with the written approvals for both the new septic system for proposed Lot #2 as well as the approval for the existing septic system for Lot #1 to remain on proposed Lot #2, form the Rockland County Health Department.
9. The Drainage Consultant to the Planning Board recommendations acceptance for drainage subject to the following conditions: The Applicant proposes to subdivide a 0.98-acre parcel on the east side of Western Highway between Klee Avenue and Blauvelt Road into two lots. The previous plan indicated an existing 1-story dwelling on Lot 1 that would remain, and an existing barn on Lot 2 that would be removed and replaced with a proposed 2-story dwelling. An existing driveway was to be modified so that both lots would share a common driveway with access from Western Highway. A drainage plan with calculations had been provided and was the basis of our May 24, 2007,

 

• Provide a calculation of the net increase in the impervious area (i.e. a table breakdown of the source and size of each impervious area under existing conditions compared to the source and size of each impervious area under developed conditions (including areas added and removed). Include this tabulation with the drywell calculations and resubmit all.

 

• The effective depth of the drywell, 4-ft, has been used in the drywell calculations and is shown on the detail. The actual depth of the drywell is larger than the effective depth and must also be shown on the detail and on the plan view (e.g. 5-ft deep, 6-ft deep, etc).

Continuation of Condition #9…

 

• Provide an excerpt from the Rockland County Soil Map indicating the type of soil on the site. Revise the CN value for the appropriate soil if needed.  Use the good condition CN value to be conservative.  Resize the Drywell as necessary.  Include soil map with the drywell calculations and resubmit all.

 

In September 2007, the Drainage Consultant received a submittal that did not address those conditions of acceptance.  On January 9, 2008, the Drainage Consultant sent the applicant an email advising, that as of that date, they had not heard from the Applicant regarding those conditions.  In its email, the Drainage Consultant recommended that the Applicant submit a complete revised submittal package for the next review.

 

Upon review of the current submittal, the Drainage Consultant found that the Applicant has revised its proposed plan so that the existing barn on Lot 2 will remain and be converted to a single family residence. The existing driveway will be modified so that both lots will share a common driveway with access from Western Highway. A detail for a 6-ft diameter drywell has been included but its location has not been shown on the plan and revised sizing calculations have not been provided.

 

Accordingly, the Drainage Consultant recommends that the Applicant should be directed to submit a drainage plan, supported by calculations and a grading plan, to demonstrate that there will be a zero net increase in runoff rate from the developed site under a 24-hr, 100-yr Type III storm.  If percolation tests on the site are performed, this information can be used to define seepage pit percolation during the storm; otherwise, a default value of 30-min per in. may be used.  The plan and calculation should be signed and sealed by a N.Y. State P.E.  I can be contacted by the Applicant’s Engineer to discuss the calculation method.

 

10. 10. Notes shall be added to the plat indicating that, when public sanitary sewer connection becomes available, that the homeowners will connect and that any public sewer mains requiring extensions within a right of way or an easement shall be reviewed and approved by the Rockland County Department of Health prior to constriction.

11. 11. It is our understanding that the barn will be converted to a residence and this is expressed in notes on the plat drawings. However, the letter from Harvey Goldberg of HDR, dated February 27, 2008 and included in the packet from the Town, indicates that “an existing barn that will be removed” contradicts the site plan. This must be clarified or corrected.
12. 12. Water is a scarce resource in Rockland County; thus proper planning and phasing of this project are critical to supplying the current and future residents of the Towns, Villages and County with an adequate supply of water. A letter from the public water supplier, stamped and sealed by a NYS licensed professional engineer, shall be issued to the municipality for this project, certifying that there will be a sufficient water supply during peak demand periods and in a drought situation.
13. 13. If any public water supply improvements are required, engineering plans and specification for these improvements shall be reviewed by the Rockland County Department of Health, prior to construction. In order to complete an application for approval of plans for public water supply improvements, the water supplier must supply an engineer’s report pursuant to the “Recommended Standards for Water Works, 2003 Edition,” that certifies their ability to serve the proposed project while meeting the criteria contained within the Recommended Standards for Water Works. These standards are adopted in their entirety in 10 NYCRR, Subpart 5-1, the New York State regulations governing public water systems. Both the application and supporting engineer’s report must be signed and stamped by a NYS licensed professional engineer and shall be accompanied by a completed NYS Department of Health Form 348, which must be signed by the public water supplier.
14. 14. Prior to any grading or construction on the site, a soil and erosion control plan shall be developed that meets the New York State Guidelines for Urban Erosion and Sediment Control.
15. 15. There shall be no net increase in storm water runoff from the site.
16. 16. All subdivision maps must be signed by the Chairman of the Rockland County Drainage Agency (RCDA) before the Rockland County Clerk will accept for filing. The final approved subdivision map must be submitted to the RCDA for review.

17. The Rockland County Department of Highway has reviewed the plans and information and offers the following comments:

• The Highway Department concurs with the concept of utilizing a common shared driveway to service the two lots. This will reduce the number of curb cuts along County Roadway. Should the applicant perform any changes to the width of the existing driveway access off Western Highway, an additional review and approval will be required from the Highway Department.
• The split rail fence along Western Highway shall be relocated to be contained within the property line. For the notes showing the split rail fence along Western Highway to be relocated, please add “to be contained within the property line”.
• A copy of the latest drainage calculations prepared for this project shall be provided to the County Highway for additional review.
• Sight distance calculations to the north and south of the driveway access shall be demonstrated on the site plan.
• A Rockland County Highway Department Work Permit will be required for development of Lot #2 and must be secured prior to the start of any constructing or excavation on site. The applicant shall be aware that under the Drainage Section of the Rockland County Highway Department Standard Specifications, revised by the County Highway Department in November 2005, a Drainage Maintenance Fee of $500.00 per legal tax lot will be imposed on each subdivision and/or site plan.
• Separate additional Road Opening Permits will be required from the Rockland County Highway Department for the Sewer and Utility Connections required within the paved area of Western Highway.

18. 18. Based upon Rockland County Drainage Agency (RCDA) evaluation of available mapping and information submitted, it has been determined that the proposed activity is in close proximity to the Sparkill Creek floodplain. The RCDA is unable to make a jurisdictional determination concerning the proposed project based upon the information submitted. In that regard, the applicant shall submit it proposed stormwater management plan, drainage plan and drainage calculations and any and all environmental impact statements, environmental assessment forms or environmental studies regarding the proposed site development to RCDA for further review.
19. 19. Prior to signing the Subdivision Map, the applicant shall provide Money in Lieu of Recreational Land, in accordance with Section 21-20 of the Land Development Regulations of the Town of Orangetown; $9,000.00 for every new residential lot created. The applicant shall also provide money to be placed into the Stream Maintenance Fund, at the amount of $80.00 for every new residential lot created.

20. The Town of Orangetown Fire Prevention Bureau recommends that the driveway be constructed to allow access for fire apparatus in all weather. This shall include features of both width and weight. The driveway should support the weight of heavy apparatus. Some apparatus exceeds 45,000 pounds. Also, the construction should include drainage pipes install under the driveway. Secondly, the Fire Prevention Bureau recommends that the entrance to the driveway should not be impeded by planting or columns, which would affect the turning radius of fire apparatus entering the driveway.
21. 21. Driveway shall be stabilized to support emergency response equipment (75,000 lbs) as per the 2003 building code. Also, there shall be no parking fire zone lane along the entire length of the long driveway.

22. 22. A note shall be placed on the plan in regards to an agreement to maintain the required signage by the homeowner for the long driveway.
23. 23. The applicant’s eastern proposed lot borders Town of Orangetown property which is a Rail-Trail. This section of the Rail-Trail will be further developed in the future. The applicant shall re-label the map to reflect this and consider additional screening at the rear of lots #2 and #3.
24. 24. The applicant shall comply with all pertinent items in the Guide to the Preparation of Subdivision Plats prior to signing the final plans.
25. 25. All reviews and approvals from various governmental agencies must be obtained prior to stamping of the Subdivision Plan.
26. 26. TREE PROTECTION: The following note shall be placed on the subdivision 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.

Continuation of Condition #26….

 

 

• One (1) foot radius from truck 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.

27. 27. All landscaping shown on the subdivision 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.
28. 28. Prior to the commencement of any site work, including the removal of trees, the applicant shall install the soil erosion and sedimentation control as required by the Planning Board. Prior to the authorization to proceed with any phase of the site work, the Town of Orangetown Department of Environmental Management and Engineering (DEME) shall inspect the installation of all required soil erosion and sedimentation control measures.  The applicant shall contact DEME at least 48 hours in advance for an inspection.
29. 29. The contractor’s trailer, if any is proposed, shall be located as approved by the Planning Board.

30. 30. If the applicant, during the course of construction, encounters such conditions as flood areas, underground water, soft or silty areas, improper drainage, or any other unusual circumstances or conditions that were not foreseen in the original planning, such conditions shall be reported immediately to DEME. The applicant shall submit their recommendations as to the special treatment to be given such areas to secure adequate, permanent and satisfactory construction. DEME shall investigate the condition(s), and shall either approve the applicant’s recommendations to correct the condition(s), or  order a modification thereof.  In the event of the applicant’s disagreement with the decision of DEME, or in the event of a significant change resulting to the subdivision plan or site plan or any change that involves a wetland regulated area, the matter shall be decided by the agency with jurisdiction in that area (i.e. Wetlands – U.S. Army Corps of Engineers).
31. 31. Permanent vegetation cover of disturbed areas shall be established on the site within thirty (30) days of the completion of construction.
32. 32. Prior (at least 14 days) to the placing of any road sub-base, the applicant shall provide the Town of Orangetown Superintendent of Highways and DEME with a plan and profile of the graded road to be paved in order that these departments may review the drawings conformance to the approved construction plans and the Town Street Specifications
