Queensbury,NY 12804
Dear Planning Board Members:
My name is Charles J. Kane, III aka North Country Development,owner of 973 Route 9,
Queensbury,New York. I am currently renting my small building to Rocky Auto Sales, as a
small used car dealership.
The proprietors names are, Chris Chadraui and Christina Loglio DBA/Rocky Auto Sales. They
have informed me that the Department of Motor Vehicle will not grant a New York State Used
Car Dealer License for this facility;unless a small divider be installed in the parking lot,
separating from my other building at this same location.
This divider is very small, and removable. The size is 2 ft. high and 20.8 ft. in length,
comprising of three (3)poles and a yellow chain. There is a ten(10)foot opening to cross
through the parking lot. This divider will most likely be temporary until the Spring of 2021
when tenant plans to take over other building; then there will be no need for this separation.
Attached please find the plan and photos showing same. I would appreciate your consideration
for this divider, as it has been difficult to rent this parcel since we completed refurbishing this
site. Thank you for your consideration.
