Upon my review I find that your proposal will require Area Variance review and Special Use Permit review prior to the commencement of the project. Specifically, an Area Variance is required as the proposed dock does not meet the minimum side setback requirement of the Waterfront Residential; (WIC) district. Special Use Permit revim is needed for the establishment of a Class A Marina. I understand that you may be preparing the necessary application materials already, as such; this letter serves as the necessary denial letter in the processing of your Area Variance application. Should you have any questions or comments regarding your application, please do not hesitate to contact this office. incerel , Craig Brown Zoning Administrator Blsh Cc.

The deeded grant is that of a shared use with the lakefront property owners,the lakefront year round tenants residing on the property who already currently utilize this dock and easement area,as well as, the guests and invitees ofthose residing onthe lakefront property. VVeapprove ofthe submission of the application with the proposed plan; however a Class A Marina and the associated uses are not part, ofthe deeded grant. Our multi-year effort to restore this over 100-year-old landmark is ongoing.Our goal is to restore this property in a clean, quiet manor that is harmo nizing with the waterfront residential,critical environmental area. In 2014 we installed a septic system that is above standard and for a lakefront property;we have tried to reduce storm water runoff by adding gutters, removing some non-permeable areas and adding more green space and plantings. VVehave worked with the neighboring property to the west and removed diseased and dying trees that damaged a house roof after a terrible storm, allowing smaller trees to flourish, We have protected the green space buffer between the adjacent 7 multi-dwelling property to t1le west and the 4 multi-dwelling property that consist of trees and shrubs. as well as, a cedar tree that provides a year round buffer. We have added skylights minimizing electricity for lighting and have replaced old furnaces with new efficient models bringing the property up to today's standards and lowering emissions. Our tenants to the property,as well as, the adjacent 7 multi-dwelling property to the west and the single family property to the east are quiet, neat and clean ,and we believe this peaceful manner has helped contributed to new families of wildlife In the vicinity like eagles, osprey, herons and loons. It is our intent into the future to continue to be good stewards to the lakefront property, Sincerely, &kll Lisa David Roster Sue Hemingwe� From: Craig Brown Sent: Wednesday, February 15, 2017 10:48 ANI To: Sue Hemingway, Sunny Sweet Subject: FW: Letter to Town Attachments: Letter to Town 021517.pdf From: Lisa [ma ilto:Ihartung(cbroad runner.com� Sento Wednesday, February 15, 2017 10:21 AM To: Craig Brown; Laura Moore Subject: Letter to Town Please find attached the response and approval letter.

Access to the lakefront is limited to the use of a 4' wide pedestrian pathway, a 10' grassy area along the shoreline from the western boundary line and 10' in depth in a northerly direction along the western boundary line to be used as a beach area for swimming and sunbathing and a seasonal use of a 4' by 40' dock located at the terminus of the 4' access pathway. The dock is a permitted residential use in the Waterfront District for use of those residing and or living on the property and for use by a non-resident, not residing and/or living on the waterfront property. This was once the site of the Casino, a commercial business open to the public as a restaurant/bar with a beach for swimming, boating and recreating. In 1982 after the commercial business was closed it was transformed into apartments for residential use.The four, multi-dwelling, now 169 shoreline feet lakefront property and the 2 current docks existing today are in compliance with town regulations. Harmony with Comprehensive Plan Increase public access to other recreational areas. The project provides access to Glen Lake to four non-waterfront owners. Amend all local storm water management regulations to address the impacts of both post-development run-off volumes and types. The project will not create any newly developed areas, only the new use granted to the non-waterfront properties, and therefore will not create any new sources of runoff.The pedestrian pathway will continue to be a grassy surface and the buffer of existing trees and shrubs to the adjacent 7 multi- dwelling property to the west will remain so as to mitigate any stormwater that could develop as half of the easement is located in the flood zone. Conduct research to re-evaluate the environmental health of Glen and Sunnyside Lakes. Determine a fiscally prudent course of action to correct any problems. The project does not change existing conditions and does not include any provision for wastewater. The existing setbacks for the dock remain unchanged and the natural buffer between the beach access and the adjacent property owner will remain as the existing condition. Compatibility The project provides for an access to the lakefront, beach and dock located at the terminus of the 4' pedestrian pathway, and is therefore compatible with the adjacent and nearby properties which are also residential with docks and beach areas.The west dock location has been set by prior existence 10'from the western property line as depicted in pictures from 1990 on file in the Town of Queensbury Tax Assessor's office and from the Doster's granting an easement as set forth in the Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order to four non-waterfront properties located in close proximity to the lakefront property.The Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order states the west dock to be placed in the same location (as it always has been) and as depicted on the Doster's survey map prepared by David J. Bolster dated 7/29/11 and sealed 3/5/13. A grassy area 10' along the shoreline from the western boundary line of the Doster's property; also containing a buffer to the adjacent property to the west, by 10' in depth in a northerly direction along the western property line to be used as a beach area for swimming and sunbathing to the four non-waterfront property Special Use Permit: 94 Ash Drive Glen Lake Access Easement owners, guests and invitees, as well as, the continued use by the Doster's,their tenants, guests and invitees other than the new use by the non-waterfront properties.This location complies with the same uses on the 7 multi-dwelling adjacent property to the west and is separated by a vegetative buffer. Access, Circulation and Parking Parking is prohibited as part of the Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order. It is entirely designed for pedestrian access only via the four foot path to the dock and beach area. Infrastructure and Services Maintenance to be completed by the non-waterfront property owners.There are no infrastructure or services related to this project except the removable dock which will continue to be owned by the property owner. Environment and Natural Features Environmental impacts are limited to the incidental use and enjoyment of the lakefront through swimming and boating.These activities currently exist and will continue. NYSDEC reports there are no sensitive habitats or endangered species identified in this area.There may be wetland plants in the area that are yet to be identified. Long-term Effects The project represents a newly granted land use to the non-waterfront properties. Minus the additional use, these same uses will now continue into the future.The project will therefore not have any long- term effects. Class A Marina Requirements This provision is not applicable.The Class A Marina and associated uses were either removed or terms were added prohibiting uses in the Final Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order when the use of a beach was granted. 1. Restrooms, including toilet facilities, for the use by customers,which shall be available at all times from May 1 to October 31 of each year. Sewerage disposal is prohibited. Use of a restroom would fall under this term so restrooms are not provided. The project is the establishment of a non-commercial use being granted to 4 non- waterfront properties. It represents the residential, non-commercial recreation use of the Doster property by the addition of the four nearby non-waterfront properties being deeded an easement that the Doster's granted for access to Glen Lake to the non-waterfront property owners, guests and invitees as listed in the October 13, 2016 Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order. 2. One on-site parking space or adequate off-site parking for each vessel berthed. Where the Class A marina offers rides, instruction or water-based recreation for a fee, adequate parking must be provided for customers of the Class A marina. Parking is prohibited as part of the Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order. It is entirely designed for pedestrian access only via the four foot path to the dock and beach area. Special Use Permit: 94 Ash Drive Glen Lake Access Easement 3. An adequate storage area for trailers or the storage of trailers shall be prohibited.

This site is carry-in, carry-out for any garbage generated at the site. 7. Facilities for the disposal of sanitary wastes from vessels with on-board sanitary equipment including: on-site pumpout facilities, or proven access to pumpout facilities, for use by vessels which use the services of the Class A marina; and facilities for the disposal of waste from portable marine toilets, or proven access to such facilities,for use by vessels which use the services of the Class A marina. There are no pumpout facilities on Glen Lake. In addition, the Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order provides that there will be no portable sewerage device or sewerage disposal permitted within the Easement Area. 8. A boat cleaning area that is designed, operated and maintained in such a manner to prevent contamination of the waters of the Park shall be provided, or boat cleaning shall be prohibited. The property is not located in the "Park". The Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order prohibits any boat washing activities at this site. 9.

Compliance with Zoning Ordinance: 94 Ash Drive Glen Lake Access Easement Requesting relief from SECTION: 179 Attachment 1 Schedule of Setbacks Need relief from the requirements listed below which cannot be met by the project as proposed: X Setback Buffer Zone Lot Width Other 1. Whether an undesirable change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby property will be created by the granting of this area variance? No undesirable change will occur because this dock has been in this location for many years. The dock is entirely consistent with the residential waterfront neighborhood. 2. Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by some method,feasible for the applicant to pursue,other than an area variance? The west dock location has been set by prior existence 10'from the western property line as depicted in pictures from 1990 on file in the Town of Queensbury Tax Assessor's office and from the Doster's granting an easement as set forth in the Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order to four non-waterfront properties located in close proximity to the lakefront property.The Stipulation, Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order states the west dock to be placed in the same location (as it always has been) and as depicted on the Doster's survey map prepared by David J. Bolster dated 7/29/11 and sealed 3/5/13. 3. Whether the requested area variance is substantial? The request is not substantial since the dock has historically been in this location.A grassy area 10' along the shoreline from the western boundary line of the Doster's property contains a buffer to the adjacent property to the west, by 10' in depth in a northerly direction along the western property line to be used as a beach area for swimming and sunbathing to the four non- waterfront property owners,guests and invitees, as well as,the continued use by the Doster's, their tenants,guests and invitees minus the new use of 4 non-waterfront properties being added,this location complies with the same uses on the adjacent 7-multi dwelling property to the west and is separated by a vegetative buffer. 4. Whether the proposed variance will have an adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood or district? The dock is consistent with the waterfront area and has been there for many years.The pathway is already an open grassy area and will allow for safe and reliable access to the lakefront while providing protection to the property owners and their tenants. Environmental impacts are limited to the incidental use and enjoyment of the lakefront through swimming and boating.These activities currently exist and will continue. NYSDEC reports there are no sensitive Compliance with Zoning Ordinance: 94 Ash Drive Glen Lake Access Easement habitats or endangered species identified in this area.Any wetland plants located near the beach area will be inspected for sensitivity. 5. Whether the alleged difficulty was self-created? The waterfront access and dock placement is not self-created. It provides deeded lakefront access for four nearby lots and will carry out the directives of Stipulation,Settlement, Easement and Maintenance Agreement Order(Case#2012-57449). !7• Submittal of a stamped and signed SURVEY MAP depicting existing and proposed conditions shall include the items as noted below.
