Project: Building Renovation for Day Services
Community, Work& Independence, Inc.
37 Everts Avenue
Glens Falls, NY 12801
Project Narrative
Program Description
Community, Work& Independence, Inc. (CWI) has occupied the building at 37 Everts Avenue since
about 1983. The building houses their contract manufacturing work shop, a community integration day
program, a small health clinic and administrative offices. Due to recent policy changes, the work shop
program has been reduced in size over the past few years and will be further reduced as part of this
project. The space vacated by the work shop will be renovated to accommodate three separate
community integration day programs. These are shown on the proposed Floor Plan Al as Midtown,
Community Helpers and Pathways.
The interior area proposed to be renovated encompasses about 8,780 SF of the total building area of
37,560 SF. The renovation work requires the construction of an interior corridor and connection to a new
exit from the building. This is the proposed exit stair and ramp shown on the east elevation of the building
on sheet A2. This exit will be covered by an open canopy finished with EIFS to match the existing entry
canopy. The proposed interior spaces will be provided with new fixed windows along the south and east
elevations. The exterior walls there will be repainted.
Parking Design
The staff of CWI use private vehicles and will park such. All clients using the work shop and day
programs are transported by small CWI-operated buses. These buses will continue to use the drop-off
and entrance area on the north side of the building. The proposed program will relocate truck loading
activities from the north side loading dock to primarily use the existing loading dock on the west side
(rear) of the building. The existing loading dock on the north side of the building will no longer be used for
truck loading/parking but it will remain in place. This vacated truck loading zone will provide additional
space for bus maneuvering and standing. The number of daily bus trips for the proposed use will be the
same as the current use. The only difference/expected change from the proposed renovation project will
be the number of passengers regularly on the buses.
The building is generally considered to be a health-related facility as defined by the Town of Queensbury
Code. The following is a calculation of required parking spaces for the proposed program inclusive of the
changes incorporated into this project.
Use Floor Area Minimum Number Spaces Required
Health-related facility 22,100 SF 1 per 500 SF 53
Offices- small 6,800 SF 1 per 200 SF 23
Warehouse 3,850 SF 1 plus 1 2
Total 37,560 SF 78 Spaces
As a result of the building modifications the existing parking lot will lose 4 spaces in the area of the
proposed exit canopy, currently there are 82 marked spaces. The new total number will be 78 striped
parking spaces. This includes 8 accessible spaces (4 are required by the Building Code). It is

Gary McCoola, Architect, pllc
3 Broad Street-3rd Floor tel.518-792-0050
Glens Falls,New York 12801 mccoola_architect@msn.com
noteworthy to state there is additional space available in the existing parking lot/area for up 20 additional
cars that is unmarked or unstriped.
Site Lighting
The site is currently illuminated by building-mounted fixtures. These fixtures provide illumination of the
parking and sidewalk areas surrounding the building. It is proposed for the existing lighting, which has
been sufficient for facility operations, to remain. The only proposed lighting changes are relative to the
new exit canopy on the east elevation, which will include lights recessed in the ceiling over the ramp and
stair for code required illumination of those egress features.
Site Utilities
The existing building is connected to the Town/City of Glens Falls sanitary sewer system/district. There is
a grinder and pump station at the west side of the parking lot that pumps waste to the municipal sewer
system adjacent to the bike way. The new plumbing fixtures in the building will be connected to the
existing sanitary system below the floor slab within the building footprint. Note that the septic field shown
on the Survey and site drawings at the rear(west side) of the property has been abandoned in place and
is no longer active/used.
The building is served by a water main from Everts Avenue and it reportedly enters the building
somewhere along the southeast side. This will remain with no changes proposed.
The building is served by a gas line from Everts Avenue and it also enters the building somewhere along
the southeast side. This will remain with no changes proposed.
There will be no other changes to site utilities in the proposed work.
Storm Water
The new east exit canopy will collect roof runoff and discharge the storm water by a scupper on its south
end. This storm water will be conveyed to a subsurface gravel detention basin constructed flush with the
existing grade. Refer to the Storm Water Management Report included in the application documents for
additional information. There are no other modifications proposed to the site other than a slight reduction
in pavement and the addition of a small landscape area near the proposed addition.

Attn: Laura Moore, Town Planner
RE: 37 Everts Ave—Site Plan for CWI Exit/Ramp Addition
This summary is provided in support of the above project and provides additional information pertaining
to the project regarding the site plan review standards.
A. Site Plan Review Standards
A. The proposed project furthers or is consistent with the policies of the Town's Comprehensive
Plan.
The project is in the commercial light industrial district and is consistent with the
policies of the Town's Comprehensive Plan.
B. The proposed project complies with all other requirements of this chapter, including the site
plan review standards as set forth in Paragraph F of this section, the dimensional, bulk, and
density regulations of the zoning district in which it is proposed to be located (Article 3 and
Table 1), the applicable requirements of all other articles that apply.
The project complies with the zoning for the parcel and Town's policies regarding the
requirements listed above.
C. The site plan encourages pedestrian activity internally and, if practicable, to and from the
site with pedestrian paths or sidewalks connected to adjacent areas.
Because the project is a private commercial business surrounded by other private
properties, accessed via easement, and considering Everts Ave does not have sidewalks,
it is not practicable to provide any additional opportunity for pedestrian connectivity.
However it is noteworthy to state that an "un-official" path exists between the property
and the Warren County Bikeway.
D. The site plan must conform to Chapter 136, Sewage and Sewage Disposal, Chapter 147,
Stormwater Management, and other applicable local laws.
The site plan conforms to the Town's ordinances and in particular the stormwater
management regulations regarding the small building addition.
E. The proposed use shall be in harmony with the general purpose or intent of this chapter,
specifically taking into account the location, character and size of the proposed use and the
description and purpose of the district in which such use is proposed, the nature and intensity of
the activities to be involved in or conducted in connection with the proposed use and the nature
206 Glen Street•Suite 56•Glens Falls, NY• 12801 •P: 518-792-9264
001M www.visionengineeringlic.com
and rate of any increase in the burden on supporting public services and facilities which will
follow the approval of the proposed use.
Considering the project is within a designatedcommercial and industrial zone, and
considering the planned project is limited to the small building addition simply to
address code requirements pertaining to egress, the proposed project is in harmony with
the general purpose andintent of the CLl district.
F. The establishment, maintenance and operation of the proposed use will not create public
hazards from traffic, traffic congestion or the parking of vehicles and/or equipment or be
otherwise detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in
the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the Town. Traffic access and circulation, road
intersections, road and driveway widths, and traffic controls will be adequate.
The resulting changes from the project will produce some additional traffic and bus
activity, however the facility is supported by an adequate parking lot connected to a
substantial public transportation network of local collector roads and arterial highways.
Safe access to the facility is provided from a road entrance off Everts Ave and sufficient
off-street parking and loading areas exist on site.
G. Off-street parking and loading facilities will appropriately located and arranged and sufficient
to meet traffic anticipated to be generated by the new use. The establishment of vehicle links
between parking areas of adjacent properties are provided where feasible. This furthers the
Town's goal of reducing curb cuts and reducing congestion. A twenty-foot-wide connection is
required. If adjacent properties are either undeveloped or previously developed without having
made provision for future linkage, then a future connection must be identified and provided for in
the site plan under review for such future linkage when the time arises. The Planning Board may
require proof that the applicant has made contact with adjacent property owners for purposes of
coordinating linkages with adjacent properties.
A parking schematic has been provided showing how the code required parking and
loading is satisfactorily achieved on site and that adequate space is available for the
existing site layout to meet facility needs and the Town's standards. Being an
commercial/industrial zone with nearby residential areas, it is not desirable to plan
additional connections to adjacent commercial/industrial properties as this would
unnecessarily require/promote more development, removal of natural habitat and
vegetation, and would require expansion of impervious surfaces.
H. The project shall not have an undue adverse impact upon the natural, scenic, aesthetic,
ecological, wildlife, historic, recreational or open space resources of the Town or the Adirondack
Park or upon the adequate provision of supporting facilities and services made necessary by the
project, taking into account the commercial, industrial, residential, recreational or other benefits
that might be derived from the project. In making the determination hereunder, the Planning
Board shall consider those factors pertinent to the project contained in the development
considerations set forth herein under § 179-9-080 of this chapter, and in so doing, the Planning
Board shall make a net overall evaluation of the project in relation to the development objectives
and general guidelines set forth in § 179-9-080 of this article.
Due to the small size and nature of the project it does not have an undue adverse impact
upon any cultural, natural, scenic, aesthetic, ecological, wildlife, historic, recreational or
open space resources within the Town.
2
1. The provision for and arrangement of pedestrian traffic access and circulation, walkway
structures, control of intersections with vehicular traffic and overall pedestrian convenience shall
be safe and adequate for pedestrian movement. Pedestrian connections between adjacent sites
shall be provided to encourage pedestrian use.
Adequate pedestrian and vehicle access and maneuvering is provided on site for
employees and patrons/users of the facility.
J. Stormwater drainage facilities will prevent an increase of post-development drainage flows
as compared to predevelopment drainage flows. Drainage of the site shall recharge
groundwater to the extent practical. Surface waters flowing off-site shall not degrade any
streams or adversely affect drainage on adjacent properties or public roads. Facilities shall be in
conformance with the drainage standards of Chapter 147 of the Town Code and the Town of
Queensbury Subdivision Regulations
where applicable.
The proposed stormwater management plan as included in the project development
plans meet the requirements listed above to mitigate runoff from the proposed small
building addition.
K. The water supply and sewage disposal facilities will be adequate and will meet all applicable
and current requirements set forth by Department of Health regulations and Chapter 136 of the
Town Code.
The existing water and sewage facilities for the property meet the requirements listed
above and historically have been adequate to service the facility needs.
L. The adequacy, type and arrangement of trees, shrubs and other suitable plantings,
landscaping and screening shall effectively provide a visual and/or noise buffer between the
applicants and adjoining lands, including the maximum retention of existing vegetation and
maintenance, including replacement of dead or diseased plants.
The project proposes and includes landscaping near the planned exit/ramp addition. The
existing site consists of a substantial perimeter natural buffer along adjoining parcels
which will remain.
M. Fire lanes, emergency zones and fire hydrants will be adequate and meet the needs and
requirements of emergency service providers.
Fire%mergency access to the site will remain unchanged.
N. The design of structures, roadways and landscaping in areas susceptible to ponding,
flooding and/or erosion will minimize or avoid such impacts to the maximum extent practicable.
The planned addition and corresponding site changes comply with the requirements
listed above.
®. The site plan conforms to the design standards, landscaping standards and performance
standards of this chapter.
The planned addition and corresponding site changes comply with the requirements
listed above.
