has received Wayne County Planning Board approval with conditions. Mr. Bringley noted the
landscaping plan has been revised with beds near the intersection, low beds
around the structure and trees farther out on the property. A sprinkler system will be installed to
provide irrigation for beds and lawn. All
landscaping will have regular maintenance.
Site rises from west to east;
pavement grades are not more than 4%; pavement will be curbed. There is adequate room for snow removal and

Canandaigua Road
entrance has been eliminated, and all access will now be through the parking
area of Macedon Commons Plaza. Landscaping, sprinkler system and curbed
pavement will be similar to other ESL site.
Proposed signs will face Route 31 and Canandaigua Road. Grade is approximately the same as Route 31
but lower than Canandaigua Road. Site drainage is proposed as a sheet drain to
the plazas system. Tom Morrison noted the nearest catch basin is in the
middle of the plaza parking lot and suggested installing dry wells to collect

NEW BUSINESS:
PB-07-09 Javorowsky 1207 Victor Road Dog kennel Board
member Mark McEwen recused himself from all discussion and voting on this
piece of business. John & Stacy Javorowsky would like to open a dog kennel at their
residence (10.148 acres), constructing 10 kennels inside an existing barn and
adding an outside exercise area of 25 ft. x 25 ft. Facility would be used for breeding/raising
their own animals as well as outside boarders.
The ZBA has granted a variance for side and front setbacks. The applicants have also contacted the
neighbor across the road, who does not have a problem
with their proposal. Board members
discussed the noise which could be generated by the dogs. Mr. Javorowsky
stated there are hedge rows and brush along the side property lines, and the
closest neighbors house is approximately 235-240 ft. away from the barn. All dogs would be housed inside at
night. Board members requested an
acknowledgement and/or statement from the closest neighbor (Hallings,
1215 Victor Road)
regarding the project. A motion was made
by Kevin Rooney, seconded by Mert Bartels, to grant approval for this dog kennel
with the condition that the neighbor at 1215 Victor Road acknowledge agreement
with the project. All in favor (McEwen recused); motion carried.
PB-12-09 Napora County Line Road
Two-lot realty subdivision & residential site plans Log-in & sketch
Engineer Steven Carini spoke on behalf of the
applicant. Mr. Napora
and his brother would like to split an existing 4-acre parcel into two 2-acre
lots with a residence proposed on each lot and sharing a common driveway (cross-access
easements). Perc
tests and deep holes have been done; high ground water will require partially
raised septic systems. A pond is
proposed at the rear of the property with the dirt removed from the pond to be
used for fill around the two houses. Rear
tree line would be left as-is. Board
discussed the shared driveway and pond discharge. It was suggested the driveway
be widened to 20 ft. or at the least widening the first 50 ft. A motion to grant sketch plan approval for a
two-lot realty subdivision and residential site plans was made by Tom Morrison, seconded by Mert
Bartels. All in favor;
motion carried.
PB-15-09 Clark Route 350
Realty re-subdivision & residential site plan (duplex) Log-in &
sketch Engineer Tim Voellinger spoke on behalf of
the applicant. This request is for
re-subdivision of two lots, establishing a third lot between two existing
houses. The new lot would have a
residence served by an existing private sewer lateral. The applicant is looking into extension of the
utility easement through an adjoining property (Slepecki)
and would like to donate the easement to the Town. Mr. Voellinger
stated these parcels are within the sewer district. Sight distances for a new driveway on Lot 1 were discussed.
These distances are to be indicated on the final submission, and NYS DOT
driveway permit will be required. A
motion to grant sketch plan approval was made by Mert
Bartels, seconded by Kevin Rooney. All in favor; motion carried.
PB-14-09 Sapp Route 350 Two-lot realty subdivision
& residential site plans Log-in & sketch This request is for the
subdivision of two (2) one-acre lots from an 11-acre parcel. The remaining 9+ acres will be merged with a
contiguous parcel on the north also owned by the applicant. A 20 ft. easement is being reserved if needed
for future access. Driveway sight
distances were discussed along with concerns about adequate room to push back
snow in the winter.
Board member Kevin Rooney stepped out of the meeting at this
time.
A motion to grant sketch plan
approval subject to review of the driveways and sight distances was made by Tom Morrison, seconded by Mert
Bartels. All in favor;
