Chair Lindstrom read a letter from Gail Yongen-VanNatta:

To the board:
I am writing in regard to the requested subdivision of Maureen Kelly’s property of S/B/L 60.3-1-6.2 on Schroon Hill Road in Kerhonkson, which borders me.

While I doubt that this email will have any power to block this request, or even that anyone cares, I cannot sit by without comment.

The board should note that I have been a full time resident in the Town of Rochester for over 50 years, and a part time resident since birth. I have owned my parcel since 1986 and have been a full time resident at this location for 30 years. When I moved into my house, I believe that there was only one other full time resident on Schroon Hill Road between Schwabbie Turnpike and Via Pioli Road. It was remote and very quiet. That is what I came for.

Since then, many of the existing parcels have changed hands and houses built. My water supply has diminished over the years to the extent that I had to redrill my well 200 feet deeper and just 2 years ago had to hydrofrac to get an acceptable water supply. It has cost me thousands of dollars.

What I would like to understand is the true intent of the subdivision? Maureen has essentially been an absentee AirBnB landlord for over 5 years when she moved to Massachusetts. Will this other intended single family home become another AirBnB? Will both parcels be sold? Will I ever know a true neighbor on that border of my property?

There is no comfort in living next door to an AirBnB with no onsite owner or manager. Just because the temporary tenants may pay their bill, there is no guarantee that they won’t start a fire, or trespass on my property and get hurt.

Maureen and my family used to be friends, dare I say good friends, but I last saw her in 2017. She did contact me a few weeks ago, but I was unable to connect due to my responsibilities for my elderly parents. Perhaps I may have gotten answers to my questions.

I hope the board will realize that “progress” sometimes means leaving things as they are. More houses, more population, even if only for the weekends, puts added strain on the infrastructure and changes the character of the area. With the recent increases in real estate sales, one would think taxes would go down, but that is not the case either. I guess I need to know how this subdivision will make the Town of Rochester a better place?

Sincerely,
Gail Yongen-VanNatta
240 Schroon Hill Road
Kerhonkson

Ms. VanNatta was present at the meeting and stated she wanted to know the real intent of the property. She pointed out the property is currently being used for AirBnB purposes, people set off fireworks, there is a water issue, swampy conditions, and there have been issues with the property line in the past.

Chair Lindstrom read a second letter from Barbara Strashun:

Hello Ms. Knapp,
Our property is across the road from the existing driveway and property of Ms. Kelly.
Is possible, I pose these questions:

1– Will there be a pool installed on the new property?
2– If so, does the Town of Rochester assume the water table for this and neighboring properties will not be impacted?

Thank you,
Barbara A Strashun

* * * *
Findings of the Planning Board
1. The Planning Board received zoning referral and determination letter for a minor subdivision from the Code Enforcement Officer.
2. The applicant met with the Planning Board and presented the subdivision map for review. The Board discussed and reviewed the proposed subdivision and requested additional map details: topography, and ecological overlays (wetlands).
3. The parcel is in the R-2 zoning district. The applicant proposes a 2 lot minor subdivision of S/B/L 60.3-1-6.2 (+/- 14.78 acres) into lot one of approximately 5 acres and lot two of +/- 9.8 acres.
4. The existing plat is filed with the Ulster County Clerk.
5. The current use of the parcel is residential and woodlands. Proposed lot one has an existing single family dwelling, garage and pool with existing well and septic. Proposed lot two contains existing horse barns, and corrals with the intention to construct a single family dwelling which will need septic and well approval. Rochester R-2 zoned districts are Low Density Residential Districts, this district is intended to recognize and preserve the integrity of predominantly low density rural residential areas of the Town and to protect them from incompatible uses.
6. The rear of the parcel, the lands to be subdivided contain Ulster County Habitat Core Lands/NYS DEC Hudson Valley Core Forest Lands. As defined by the DEC [these are]: “interior forest areas surrounded by at least a 100 meter wide buffer of edge forest…avoiding further fragmentation of core forests will help conserve the integrity and value of ecologically significant forest patches” [sic]. Upon review it was determined by the Board that the Core Habitat/Core Forest Lands do not appear to be at risk of disturbance as any new dwelling is proposed to be situated at the front of the proposed lot two near the existing horse stables and paddocks/corral. The suggestion to limit disturbance in these lands shall be included in the conditions of approval.
7. The application was determined to meet the requirements of an Unlisted SEQRA action.
• A Negative Declaration was determined upon review.
8. A Public Hearing was held.
9. The Board reviewed if the proposed lot has safe and legal access.
• The Board concludes that proposed lots will have adequate >/= 50 foot frontage on the Town Highway
• Proposed access for the new lot two is via a shared driveway.
10. The Board requested a road maintenance/shared driveway agreement for the proposed subdivision. Receipt of the road maintenance/shared driveway agreement shall be a condition of approval upon review and acceptance by the Attorney for the Town.
11. The parcel is in the R-2 zoning district. Upon review, the Board concludes that the 2 proposed parcels meet or exceed the bulk standards requirements for the R-2 zoning district.
12. The Board reviewed if the proposed lots could support water and septic. Lot 1 has existing water and septic. The Planning Board will need engineer certification or UCDOH approval that the new lot 2 can support water and septic. This shall be a condition of approval

Draft findings were prepared by the Chairman and were read and discussed by the Planning Board in public meeting at the time of adoption.

The Planning Board advised Mr. Getman to double check with Code Enforcement Office regarding event/occupancy limits. If occupancy allowance decreases, parking plans will need to be eliminated.

Chair Lindstrom advised more details are needed, including an official site plan, side views of building, lighting, etc. This work should be done with an architect/licensed surveyor.

The Planning Board will schedule site visits to the property.

Ms. Christiana said the hours of the events cannot be limited. The only complaint from neighbors, thus far, have been regarding traffic on the road.

The Planning Board discussed the possibility of a report being provided following the event. This will depend on the results of the official sound study that has to be completed.
