Attention Laura Moore and whomever else it
may concern, I am requesting an extension on

Staff Comments
• Location -The project is located on one parcel with 3 addresses for each building at 7, 9, 13 Nutley Lane.
The parcel 0.53 acres.
• Arrangement- The site has three buildings on the property with parking and access toward the east property
line near Route 9L
• Site Design- The applicant proposes stormwater management and shoreline plantings as part of the project.
• Building - 7 Nutley Lane is considered a new bunk house, one story with new floor area at 330 sq ft and a
184 sq ft deck. 9 Nutley Lane already constructed 440 sq ft open deck with a704 sq ft footprint and 1,408
sq ft floor area.
• Grading and drainage plan, Sediment and erosion control -The plans show a rip rap area and shallow
depressions to be installed near the shoreline. The site has areas that are 15% or greater.
• Landscape plan -The plans show additional shoreline plantings to be installed and the existing plantings are
to remain. Below are the guidelines from the shoreline buffer code section
o Shoreline Buffer - Section 179-8-040
-Minimum width 35 ft (Lake George)
-For every 700 sgft of shoreline buffer area -one large tree minimum 3 inches in diameter
-For every 350 sq ft of ground cover -7 - 24 in native shrubs; 14 herbaceous plants
Project site
-78 ft of shoreline per RPS
-Shoreline buffer 78 ft X 35 ft width is 2730 sq ft
-Shoreline buffer area -2730 /700 = 3.9 round up to 4-four large trees at 3 inch diameter
-Ground cover-2730/350 = 7.8 round up to 8 (X7) =56 native shrubs and 8 (X14) herbaceous
plants=112
o Shoreline Cutting restrictions- Section 179-6-050
- Shoreline lots are allowed water access and beaches where 30% of the shoreline or maximum of 75
ft whichever is less
- 78 ft Shoreline X 30%= 23.4 feet of the shoreline buffer cut to allow a view, access and to reduce
runoff (such as angled across the lot).
- Cross reference 179-8-040 ground cover of shrubs and herbaceous plantings are still applicable
within the 30%/75 ft cut area.
• Site lighting plan -The applicant has indicated site lighting to be residential and down cast.
• Site details -The previous survey for the site did note three buildings however not as described in the current
proposal.
• Utility details -The three units are on one septic system and have water drawn from the lake.
• Elevations -The elevations are provided for all three buildings
• Floor plans -The floor plans for all three buildings are provided. The 7 Nutley Lane building is to remove
the kitchen, reduce the building size and reduced the deck size - the building would then be used as a bunk
room with no kitchen facilities.
• Waivers -Planning staff has reviewed the applicants request for waivers that include items, h. signage, n
traffic, q. soil logs, r. construction/demolition disposal s. snow removal.
The waivers requested -Staff finds it reasonable to request a waiver as these items are typically
associated with commercial projects. The applicant has provided information for g. site lighting, j.
stormwater, k. topography,1. landscaping, o. commercial alterations/ construction details, p floor plans
Pursuant to Section 179-9-050 the Planning Board may grant waivers on its own initiative or at the
written request of an applicant. The Board is to review the waivers and to determine if they are to be
granted.
Nature of Variance
Section 179-3-040 dimensional -Revised - 7 Nutley Lane would be reduced with no kitchen, building size
reduced, deck size reduced to meet setbacks. 7 Nutley Lane would be 19 ft in height and would require a height
variance for being greater than 16 ft for an accessory structure. 9 Nutley Lane building work would be 4 ft to
the north property line where a 20 ft setback is required; and 12 ft to the south property line where a 20 ft
setback is required. Expansion of non -conforming for 7 and 9 Nutley Lane. Permeability existing is 67.78% and
improved to 69.60% proposed where 75% is required- noting no relief is required as the site is improving the
permeability on site.

Code Excerpt for review purposes:
179-3-040 Establishment of Districts -Rural Residential
The Rural Residential (RR) Districts are intended to preserve and enhance the natural open space and rural
character of the Town by limiting development to low densities. Low densities are warranted in this area of the
Town due to natural features (such as steep slopes, wetlands, and limiting soils) as well as marginal access to
populated areas. This area of the Town is described in the "Neighborhoods" section of the Comprehensive Plan,
adopted on August 6, 2007. In addition, and perhaps most importantly, this is the land area of the Town that is
extremely important to the preservation of its rural character. As such, the district is intended to promote open
spaces and rural design.
179-4-010 Residential Development Design Requirements
Rural design. New residential subdivisions, construction and/or development that occurs in the LC, PR and RR
Zoning Districts shall comply with the following rural design requirements:
(1) Subdivisions.
(a) Existing stone walls, established hedgerows and/or mature tree lines shall be preserved and utilized for
establishment of lot lines and considered in the lot layout for design of subdivisions.
(b) Flag lots shall be allowed in order to provide more flexibility in design, provided the following standards are
met:
[1] A maximum of one flag lot for every three frontage lots.
[2] A minimum of 60 feet of road frontage shall be required for the flag lot and, if applicable, an easement shall
be provided to allow for future connections off of the flag lot or its road frontage.
[3] All buildings on the flag lot shall be set back at least 125 feet from the closest rear property line of the
abutting parcel(s).
[4] Private roads are allowed in order to minimize public road frontage development and to increase flexibility
of design. The road frontage along a private road that is approved by the Planning Board and is constructed in
accordance with Town specifications may be used to satisfy the minimum road frontage requirements set forth
in Article 3 above.
(2) Nonsubdivision development.
(a) Buildings shall be located in such a manner as to avoid placement in the middle of open fields. Building
locations shall be encouraged to be placed at the edges of fields or in cleared areas next to fields wherever
practicable.
(b) Buildings shall be located where existing vegetation and/or topography provides a natural buffer and
screening from roads and neighboring properties.
(c) Clearing of vegetation and trees along roads shall be minimized so long as adequate site distances for
driveways are maintained. The use of curves in driveways shall be utilized to screen buildings so long as right-
angle intersections with roads are maintained for the last 50 feet of the driveway.
(d) Buildings shall also be sited so that existing vegetation and topography can be used as a background or
integrated into the building site location.
Chapter 94 Freshwater Wetlands
The subdivision plan identifies wetland areas on the property. The site work within 100 ft of the wetland will
require a wetland permit as part of the subdivision.
Summary
Chapter 183 Article 4 provides an outline of the review procedures for sketch plan —
The Planning Board shall study the sketch plan in conjunction with the maps and information as may be
appropriate to determine if the proposed subdivision includes areas where there are severe limitations to
development. The Planning Board shall make advisory recommendations which shall be applicable to the
proposed subdivision.
