Barrett Auto
437 Dix Avenue
JE 18-022
Dear Chairman Traver and Planning Board Members,
Barrett Auto wishes to formally add open storage of vehicles and equipment in the western portion of
their commercial site on Dix Ave. This area of the site had been previously used, most recently for
remediation of contaminated soils, and it is readily amenable to for upgrade to support the existing
businesses at the site.
The only improvements needed to allow vehicle and equipment storage included minor site grading and
the addition of stone for stabilization during wet periods. However, in support of the use, Barrett
proposes the addition of stormwater management for that portion of the site, new buffers to protect the
Dix Ave. corridor and the neighbors, and landscaping for site aesthetics. Lastly, we believe that truck
traffic in and out of the site will be better controlled, in part based on the addition of new site signage that
will direct trucks to exit on Queensbury Ave.
We look forward to discussing this project with the Planning Board. If there are any questions, please
call our office at 518-792-2907 or email me directly at tjarrett@jarrettengineers.com.
Sincerely,
H. Thomas Jarrett, P.E.

Re: Barrett Auto, 437 Dix Ave.
§ 179-9-080 Requirements for Site Plan Approval. The Planning Board shall not
approve a Site Plan unless it first determines that such site plan meets the following
Standards. Please prepare responses to each of the following topics:
Standards
A.The proposed project furthers or is consistent with the policies of the Town’s
Comprehensive Plan.
This site has been used commercially for many years in an area along Dix
Ave. that is zoned commercially to take advantage of the travel corridor.
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 proposed open storage area meets Town zoning requirements.
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.
In as much as this application only proposes open storage on the west end of
this existing commercial site, no impact on pedestrian activity or access is
expected.
D.The site plan must conform to Chapter 136 Sewer and Sewage Disposal,
Chapter 147 Stormwater Management Local Law, and other applicable local
laws.
This application does not involve any change to building usage and therefore
no change to sewage disposal requirements. The new storage area is being
designed to improve stormwater management on the property where little is
currently present.
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 and rate
of any increase in the burden on supporting public services and facilities
which will follow the approval of the proposed use.
The west end of this site is amenable to open storage and only minor
improvements are needed to make this use viable. Further, the use proposed
is in keeping with the existing commercial use of the site and that of the
nearby Dix Ave. corridor properties.

Stephen Traver, Chairman, and Planning Board Members January 2019
Re: Barrett Auto, 437 Dix Ave.
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.
No major changes to vehicular traffic ingress or egress, or normal
staff/customer parking, are proposed. However, the site improvements will
likely result in more controlled access. Following construction of the
improvements, and especially the landscaping buffers, truck access will be
limited to the formal site entrances, and new signage is proposed to direct
truck traffic to exit via Queensbury Ave.
G.Off-street parking and loading facilities will be 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 area either undeveloped or previously
developed without having made provision for future linking, then a future
connection must be identified and provided for in the site plan under review
for such future linking 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.
No new traffic or staff/customer parking demands will result from the
proposed use.
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 service 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 made 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.
Additional open storage of vehicles/equipment will result from this proposed
project, however, no new impact on resources is expected. To support this
application, buffers and/or vegetative plantings are proposed along the
perimeter of the site in the vicinity of the site improvements.
I.The provisions 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
Page 2 of 4

Re: Barrett Auto, 437 Dix Ave.
movement. Pedestrian connections between adjacent sites shall be provided
to encourage pedestrian use.
Not applicable to this application.
J.Stormwater drainage facilities will prevent an increase of post development
drainage flows as compared to pre-development drainage flows. Drainage of
the site shall recharge ground water 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.
Little to no stormwater management is currently present on this site due to its
long history of commercial use. However, the proposal for open storage is
supported by the inclusion of stormwater management of the proposed storage
area on the western side of the site.
Currently, most of the runoff emanating from the site flows easterly and
southeasterly toward Dix Ave. and ultimately toward Queensbury Ave. where
it enters an established stormwater collection system. The proposal
incorporated with this application is to collect runoff from the proposed
storage area and route it to a series of small treatment (filtration and detention)
ponds along the north edge of the site. From there, the runoff will slowly
drain along a drainage path similar to that currently followed. The reasons for
treatment in lieu of (preferred) retention and infiltration are:
Suspected shallow bedrock as well as groundwater, and,
The existing on-site wastewater treatment/disposal system in the
northeast corner of the site would likely be negatively impacted if a
significant quantity of stormwater were to be infiltrated just upslope.
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.
This application has been developed so that the open storage area does not
impact sewage disposal or water supply systems serving the site.
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 deceased plants.
Vegetative plantings are proposed to support this application, especially along
the south (Dix Ave.) boundary of the site. In addition, a privacy fence is
proposed along the north property line where the storage area and stormwater
management system are proposed. The fence is intended to buffer and protect
the neighbor to the north.

Stephen Traver, Chairman, and Planning Board Members January 2019
Re: Barrett Auto, 437 Dix Ave.
M.Fire lanes, emergency zones and fire hydrants will be adequate and meet the
needs and requirements of emergency service providers.
No changes affecting emergency access are proposed or anticipated.
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 proposed stormwater management system should help prevent flooding of
the site during significant storm events.
O.The site plan conforms to the design standards, landscaping standards and
performance standards in this chapter.
We believe the overall proposal meets Town standards, and more specifically,
the landscaping and buffer proposed meet the intent of the landscaping design
standards.
Barrett Auto may wish to add site lighting to the open storage area, depending
on future need, and the site plan shows several light fixtures noted as “future”.
If the Board approves the addition of future site lighting, then light fixture
specifications and light distribution calculations would be provided if/when
the lighting is actually added.
