CARMELITE SISTERS: 600 Woods Road, Tax map ID#179-1-69 – Bill Clark, representing the Carmelite Sisters and Erin Moore, PE of Clark Engineering made the presentation to the board for Site Plan for a proposed building for a chapel and visitors center for the Carmelite Sisters. The site is off the existing access road with a new driveway off this road. There will be less than one acre utilized for storm water improvements. They will install a septic with a pump system. The site visit by Columbia County Health Department was favorable. The application was received and fees paid.
RANDY BLOOM: 78 Langridge Road, Tax map ID#201-1-26.111 – Randy Bloom and Mark Graminski, surveyor came before the board with a revised application and EAF for subdivision showing three lots, increased from two lots. Our attorney advised Mr. Graminski that because Langridge Road subdivides the parcel noted as Parcel #1 on the original application, this becomes a three-lot subdivision. The existing parcel of 144.50 acres will be divided as follows:
Lot #1 – 49.43 acres with existing barn converted to a studio, residence with accessory apartment and a mobile home and existing utilities.
Lot #2 – 84.86 acres for a single-family residence with a new driveway.
Lot #3 – 10.16 acres for a single-family residence with a new driveway.
Driveway permits were received for the two new lots.
Agricultural Data statements will be sent to Helen Unson and Nicholas and Nancy Russo and a notice to the Town of Red Hook of this action will also be sent.
