MR. TRAVER-Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Town of Queensbury
Planning Board meeting for Tuesday, February 26t", 2019. This is our second meeting for
February and our fourth meeting for 2019. Please observe the illuminated exit signs. In
the event of an emergency, that's your evacuation route. If you have an electronic device
or a cell phone, please either turn it off or turn off the ringer for us so we're able to enjoy
our meeting in relative peace. We have but one item on the agenda this evening and then
we're going to be going into committee work. I'd also like to announce, too, that we have an
upcoming workshop that will be providing some training to us on low impact development, and
that will be a workshop training session from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. on April 16" here at the
Activities Center on environmental impacts and low impact development, and that will be
presented by Chris Navitsky, the Lake George Water Keeper and some other support staff.
So please make a note of that. We have but one item on our regular agenda this evening,
Laura, and that is the Stewart's Shop Corporation, Site Plan 7-2019. Correct?

CHRIS POTTER, REPRESENTING APPLICANT, PRESENT
MRS. MOORE-Yes. So this applicant met with the Zoning Board of Appeals last week and
was asked to review items on the setback request for the property line and permeability on
the site, and so they tabled the application to their first meeting in April which means the
Board will need to open the public hearing and table the application to the second Planning
Board meeting. The representative is here if you still have any additional questions of him.

report we'll be tabling this application this evening, pending some additional input to the ZBA.
Does anyone have any questions? There is an applicant representative here. Does anyone
have any questions prior to entertaining the tabling motion? Okay. I guess we're ready
for the motion.
MRS. MOORE-I'm sorry. You have to open your public hearing.
MR. TRAVER-So we'll open the public hearing and ask, is there anyone in the audience that
wanted to comment on this application this evening? Bearing in mind that it will be tabled
and maybe subject to some changes. Okay. So we'll close the hearing for tonight but we
will leave it open and we'll be reviewing it on the 23"d when we anticipate this application will
be before us again.
