October 19, 2022 Mr. Craig Brown Zoning Administrator and Code Compliance Officer Town of Queensbury 742 Bay Road Queensbury, New York 12804 Delivered via email only: CraigB@aueensbury.net Re: Hogan Residence Town of Queensbury, Warren County, New York Labella Project # 2220706.41 Queensbury Ref #SP50-2022 Dear Mr. Brown: Labella Associates (La Bella) has received a submission package from your office for the above referenced project. The Applicant is proposingto build a single story pavilion within the demolition area of the previous camp. Submitted information includes the following: • Town of Queensbury Application, prepared by the Applicant, dated June 14, 2022 • Stormwater Plan, prepared by Raymond A. Koch P.L.S., dated June 14, 2022 • Elevations, prepared by Timberpeg, dated, November 25, 2021 Your office has requested that we conduct a review of the design of the stormwater system as it relates to compliance to local, state, or relevant codes and regulations. Based upon our review, LaBella offers the following comments for the Town's consideration: Stormwater Management and Erosion and Sediment Control 1. Accordingto the site plan review application, the proposed site improvements will disturb less than one (1) acre and thus the project is not required to obtain coverage under the NYSDEC SPDES General Permit for Stormwater Discharges from Construction Activity (GP-0-20-001). However, this project falls within the Lake George watershed and therefore is typically subject to the stormwater management requirements set forth in Section 147-11 of the Town Code for projects within the Lake George Park. Comments related to the stormwater management and erosion and sediment control features proposed for the site are offered below: 2. At this time it is unclear if the project is exempt under town code section 147-11.D or if the project will be a "major" or "minor" project under town code section 147-11.E.
