Dear 1vlr. Cintula:

518-761-8201
I am writing to you in response to my review of your plaits depicting the proposed construction of
a building addition and associated site ,improvements at the property referenced above and to
document my conversations with. you and your agent; ~'om lVace, regarding the same. ---
Upon review of the plans submitted to this office, I find that both an Area Variance and Site Plan
Review will be necessary in order for you to :construct the addition and site improvement that you
desire. Specifically,. a variance is needed as the proposed placement of your-addition which does
not meet the minimum setbaelc requiremet~ of the Commercial Light Industrial (CLi] district or
the setback and parking requirements of the Bay Road Travel Corridor Overlay (TCO) district.
.Site Plan Review is necessary. for the changes to and addition of uses to the property as no Site
Plan Review has been performed on this property within the last 7 years. Further, please note that
parcel consolidation (5 parcels) will be necessary, as discussed
I understand that your agent is preparing the necessary application(s). Please note our
established submittal deadlines when compiling your application materials.
Should you have any. questions regarding the above comments, please do not hesitate to contact
this office.
Sincerely,
To f bury

Re: Kubricky Construction Corporation
238 Bay Road Site -Area Variance
Dear Chairman Jackoski and Zoning Board Members:
June 1 ~, 2011
Project # 47511
Attached is an area variance application for the proposed change of use for their former office on
Bay Road. The office portion of the building will have two tenants; a radio station and a
personal fitness trainer. For at least the immediate future the shop portion of the building will
continue with its current use. However, future plans are to convert that area to office and/or light
industrial use.
The area variance is for a sideline setback and is necessary in order to construct a handicap
entrance.
This submission includes (15 copies each):
• This letter
• Site Plan Application including deed to property
• Project Narrative including waiver requests
• Short form EAF
• Zoning administrators denial letter
• Drawings SP-1
• Building elevation
Please let me know if there are any questions or additional information required for your review
of this project.
Sincerely,

RE: Building Addition
238 Bay Road
T'ax illap Parcel No: 302.12-131
Dear Ivir. Cintula:
I am writing to you in response to my review of your plans depicting the proposed construction of
a building addition and associated site improvements at the property referenced above and to
document my conuersations with. you and your agent; Tom Nate, regarding the same.
Upon review of the plans submitted to this office, I find that both an Area Variance and Site Plan
Review wi11 be necessary in order for you to construct the addition and site improvement that you
desire. Specifically, a variance is needed as the proposed placement of your addition which does
not meet the minimum setback requirements of the Commercial Light Industrial (CLI) district or
the setback and parking requirements of the Bay Road Travel Corridor Overlay (TCO) district.
Site Plan Review is necessary for the changes to and addition of uses to the property as no Site
Plan Review has been performed on this property within the last 7 years. Further, please note that
parcel consolidation (5 parcels) will be necessary, as discussed
I understand that your agent is preparing the necessary. application(s). Please note our
established submittal deadlines when compiling your application materials.
Should you have any. questions regarding the above comments, please do not hesitate to contact
this office.
Sincerely,
To f nsbury

PROJECT NARRATIVE
KUBRICKY CONSTRUCTION CORPORATION
BAY ROAD SITE -CHANGE OF USE
The Kubricky Construction Company, which is owned by D. A. Collins, recently moved their
corporate offices and most or their equipment maintenance and storage from their site at 238 Bay
Road in Queensbury. They are now proposing to lease the office portion of their building to two
new tenants; a radio station and a personal fitness trainer. They will continue to maintain
occupancy of the shop area for some of their equipment maintenance. However, future plans are
to convert the two shop areas into office and/or light industrial use. The currently proposed
addition of the two new tenants constitutes a change of use and requires site plan review.
The site is comprised of four separate tax parcels totaling 2.83 acres. As part of this project it is
proposed to consolidate these into one tax parcel.
The only exterior improvements proposed are the addition of a new entrance along the north side
of the building and the stripping of parking spaces on the existing pavement at the rear of the
building. The new entrance will. serve both new tenants and will include a handicap accessible
ramp. The landing for the handicap ramp constitutes a building addition and, since this north side
of the building does not meet current zoning setbacks, will require a zoning area variance. The
attached photograph of the north side of the building shows an elevation view of the proposed HC
entrance.
The existing building mounted sign for Kubricky Construction will be removed and replaced with
two building mounted signs: one for the radio station (WCKM-FM, WCQL-FM, WWSC-AM)
and one for the personal fitness trainer. No free-standing signs are proposed. All new signs will
be code compliant.
Because no new site improvements are being proposed the following waivers are requested:
Stormwater -the site is essentially flat with some areas slightly pitched to the north. There is an
existing drywell at the rear of the building which handles water from the area to the rear of the
shop. The site was observed during a relatively heavy rainfall and, although some runoff was
noted leaving the north side of the site, this drains into an existing low area on the powerline
right-of--way and does not appear to cause any problems. The proposed change of use will not in
any way change the existing site drainage conditions. Therefore a waiver is requested from the
stormwater requirements.
Grading - No sitework is proposed; thus no grading is required
Li htin -the only new lighting proposed will be under the HC entrance canopy, which because
of its location and low wattage could not possibly affect residential properties to the south or
west.
Landscaping -existing shrubbery in the front of the building will be cleaned up and any damaged
plants replaced. No new landscaping is proposed.
Buffer - A waiver is requested from the requirement of a type C buffer along the southern
property line.
The proposed change of use for the office portion of the existing Kubricky Construction building
will be more compatible with the adjacent residential properties and will hopefully lead to
conversion of the shop portions of the building to similar uses.
