APPROVAL OF MINUTES

Mr. Tedesco stated, “Before approving the minutes of the May 26 Planning Board meeting, I suggest to the Board a modification regarding the approval for an amendment to the site plan proposed by Unification Church at the last Planning Board meeting.  In its application the applicant referred to needed repairs to a slate sidewalk.  Our Village Landscape Consultant informed the Board that it is not a slate sidewalk but a New York State bluestone sidewalk.  Such sidewalks are required to be maintained in the South End Historic District.  Lyndhurst was required to completely restore their bluestone sidewalk ten years ago, and the Unification Church was notified of this requirement then and at the time of their last site plan approval.”  Mr. Tedesco stated he would, therefore, move to amend Site Plan Condition No. 12.

Mr. Tedesco moved, seconded by Mr. Aukland, and unanimously carried, that the Planning Board amends Site Plan Condition No. 12 in the minutes of May 26, 2009, to read:  The bluestone sidewalk needs to be repaired.  The sidewalk is to be repaired using New York State cleft bluestone.

Mr. Tedesco moved, seconded by Mr. Aukland, and unanimously carried, that the Planning Board approves the minutes of May 26, 2009, as submitted and amended tonight.

CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING – HOLY SPIRIT ASSOCIATION FOR THE UNIFICATION OF WORLD CHRISTIANITY – JARDIM ESTATES EAST – BROWNING LANE – SUBDIVISION

Chairman Friedlander read the following letter dated June 11, 2009, from Norman Sheer, attorney for the applicant:

“Application of HSA-UWC – Jardim Estates East
In consideration of the discussions concerning the draft EIS in the above application held at your June 11, 2009, work session, my client extends the time for determination of completion to your July meeting to be held July 27, 2009.”

Chairman Friedlander stated, “We basically wanted to keep the DEIS determination of completeness open until we were sure all the items raised at our work session were completed.  That is supposed to happen in this timeframe.”

No one appeared to address the Board on this matter.  All agreed to adjourn the hearing until the Board’s July 27th meeting.

CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING – LAKE STREET CONSTRUCTION – LAKE AVENUE - SUBDIVISION

Chairman Friedlander stated this application is being adjourned this evening.  He stated the Board had a site visit on June 11th and a number of neighbors were present.  The
