2.0 PUBLIC HEARINGS
2.1 Public Hearing — Proposed Local Law No.: of 2023 to Amend Chapter 179
`Zoning' of Town Code to Amend Zoning Map to Change Zoning District Designation of Tax
Map Parcel No.: 302.5-1-49
PUBLICATION DATE: JANUARY 12, 2023
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Reviewed the proposed Zoning Change for the Silo to expand their
parking lot.
JON LAPPER-Jon Lapper with Tom Center from Hutchins Engineering. Fred and Frank Troelstra
the applicants are behind us. John did a good job of explaining why we are here. The Silo was
built at the time that the Northway went in at exit 19 and obviously a lot has changed as the main
entrance to the Town now. It is a popular restaurant. It has inadequate parking. The house in the
back was owned by their Dad who passed away last year. So now, it gives them the opportunity
to demolish it if we get the Zone change and put in 29 parking spaces which should make a big
difference. Tom has provided stormwater management as well as permeable pavement in the print
for the new lot. We've provided a line of landscaping between this property and the property
behind it and we have spoken to the owner of the property behind it and offered to put additional
plantings on his property if he is interested. We will talk about that at the Planning Board. The
Regular Town Board Meeting, 01-23-2023, MTG#3 49
Planning Board did SEQRA and granted a Neg Dec and also unanimously recommended the
Rezoning so with that we think it's kind of important for the Town just because at that bottleneck
it's important to have adequate parking and we're all there and it's hard to find a spot. That's
really it, and we can answer any detailed questions about the Engineering or anything else.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Okay, for the purpose of the record just introduce yourself.
TOM CENTER-Tom Center with Hutchins Engineering. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Alright, I also wanted to point out that the Planning Board viewed this
favorable. I believe the Planning Board did the SEQRA.
COUNSEL MARK SCHACHNER-That's correct.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Counsel, and I believe that the SEQRA was that there would be no
large.
COUNSEL SCHACHNER-No potentially significant adverse environmental impacts therefore,
no Environmental Impact Statement required. Therefore, issued SEQRA Negative Declaration.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Okay, thank you. So, that's the Planning Board. It did go to the
Warren County Planning Department and it was approved by their Planning Department as
proposed. There is a public hearing on this tonight so are there any Town Board questions before
I open the public hearing? To the Engineer or the Attorney, two agents? Okay, hearing none I
will open up the public hearing. Are there any members of the public here today that wish to speak
to this proposed amending of the Zoning Code? Again it's the lot just north of the Silo which
currently has a house and a piece of property owned by the Silo that be Zoned Commercial
Intensive for the purposes of expanding the parking lot. Alright,no one present any attendees have
not raised their hand to indicate an interest in speaking to this application. Alright, seeing no
interest from the public in the proposed amendment change I'll close the public hearing.

2.2 Public Hearing—Proposed Local Law No.: of 2023 to Amend Chapter 179"Zoning"
of Town Code to Regulate Specific Cannabis Businesses and Amend Use Requirements Related
to Agriculture
PUBLICATION DATE: JANUARY 12,2023
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Reviewed the proposed Local Law.
COUNCILMAN FREER-Explained there are differences between what the State regulation allows
and what the Town of Queensbury would like in our Town.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-The State suggests 200 feet between uses, more to accommodate an
urban situation then our suburban and rural situation.
OPENED PUBLIC HEARING
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-I will begin with a letter of correspondence that we received
January 171h from Michael and James Valenti:
We are writing as property owners and taxpayers to ask that the changes to the Town's
proposed Local Law amending the Zoning Code to regulate cannabis businesses in the
Town that we make changes to that. The Town Board's Resolution setting this public
hearing states that one of the purposes of the Local Law is to `foster a healthy, diverse
and economically viable cannabis industry that contributes to the local economy'.
However, the proposed Local Law is so strict that if it passes as proposed it will prevent
a diverse and economically viable cannabis industry from being established in the Town.
The proposed Law should be amended to remove the restrictions that prevent cannabis
businesses, particularly retail cannabis businesses, from being established near other
businesses.
The Zoning District where cannabis businesses will be allowed is the Commercial
Intensive District, in which there are already a variety of uses in close proximity to each
other. The Town should not overly restrict the location of new cannabis businesses
within the Commercial Intensive District because according to the Zoning Code this is
the area of the Town where Intense Commercial Development is encouraged. This
commercial area of the Town should remain available for new commercial development,
including new cannabis businesses.
The Local Law, as proposed, would prohibit cannabis businesses from being located
within 1,000 feet of certain other businesses. The list of other businesses that would
prevent a cannabis business from being established includes an amusement center,
defined by the Zoning Code as an entertainment facility, and a campground, defined by
the Zoning Code as a Commercial Recreational Facility for transient occupation. While
some of the other uses on the restricted list, such as Addiction Treatment Providers and
School make sense in order to prevent conflicting issues from being too close to each
other, the amusement center and campground businesses uses should not be on the
restricted list because they are not conflicting uses in a commercial setting.
Amusement centers and campgrounds that may be located in or near the Commercial
Intensive Zoning District are already allowed to be adjacent to other retail businesses
such as liquor and wine stores, as well as places where alcohol is consumed, such as
restaurants, nightclubs and taverns. Even places where alcohol is sold or consumed,
such as a microbrewery, nightclub or tavern, they are allowed to be adjacent to school or
day-care center in the Commercial Intensive Zoning District. There is simply no rational
justification for excluding a legal cannabis business, retail or on-site consumption, from
Regular Town Board Meeting, 01-23-2023, MTG#3 53
the Commercial Intensive Zoning District simply because a commercial amusement
center or campground business may be located within 1,000 feet of the new cannabis
business. Amusement center and campground should be deleted from the proposed list
of uses that would prohibit a cannabis business from being located within 1,000 feet of
those uses. In many instances, those two types of uses are only seasonal, operating for a
few months each summer. The presence of these seasonal businesses should not prevent
the establishment of year-round businesses in the Commercial Intensive Zoning District
where cannabis businesses will be allowed. The Town Board should not adopt a Local
Law that sets up some commercial businesses to win and others to not even make it off
the ground.
Thank you for your consideration of these changes that would help you to reach the
Town's goal of promoting "a healthy, diverse and economically viable cannabis
industry that contributes to the local economy" in Queensbury.
Sincerely, Michael and James Valenti
Alright, so with that said is there anybody present who wish to speak to the proposed Law before
us tonight? Okay,please introduce yourself for the sake of the record and feel free to speak your
mind.
ATTORNEY CLAUDIA BRAYMER-Thank you very much Supervisor Strough. I appreciate that.
I am Claudia Braymer Attorney with Braymer Law. I don't have any SEQRA issues for you tonight
like unlike some of my other topics I usually bring to you. The cannabis is an emerging area of Law
so I've done a little bit of research and I've also talked to a colleague down in a different part of the
State who works on this a little bit more. The reason I am here tonight is that I am representing the
folks who sent in the letter. They want to make sure that their concerns were addressed in public and
they were not able to attend tonight so they asked me to come. They did have two really good practical
points in their letter requesting the removal of the amusement center and campground from the list of
I am going to call them prohibited businesses. That is not exactly right you read it perfectly well
Supervisor Strough. I think you got across the point that there is two points there I really want to
emphasize. The Commercial Intensive Zoning District is the Zoning District in your Town where
you allow the most intense usage and a variety of different commercial uses to be adjacent to each
other. And like they mentioned in the letter that even includes schools and campgrounds being right
next to other uses that we may not think are, we may not want to participate in those. Or we may
have our own personal feelings about it but the fact is,remains that in the Commercial Intensive Zone
you can have those uses like a school right next to a liquor store, or a tavern or a night club. So I
think those are really good points to make from a practical policy stand point that you should not be
prohibiting a cannabis use just because it might be within a 1,000 feet of an amusement center or a
campground which are both kind of seasonal entertainment facilities in our area where this would be
a full-time legal business. And again, we might not particularly like the use or want to be interested
in engaging in that use but the State has already said that this an allowed legal use for adults and the
Town has already made the decision that you are not going to opt out of the ability for people to have
cannabis businesses. Of course, you have made the decision to allow them only in the Commercial
Intensive Zoning District and this is where I get to the two legal points I want to bring to you tonight
that I've talked to my colleague about. The Town has the authority to completely zone out cannabis
but you have chosen not to do that and you do have the authority to set the Zoning Districts where
this is going to be allowed, however, otherwise Town regulation is largely preempted by the new
State Cannabis Law. So, in legal terms we, the State has occupied the field. They have taken away
your jurisdiction on a lot of these elements. Yes, you still can regulate time,place and manner but if
you look in the proposed regulations and in the Cannabis Law itself the State Law, it talks about the
restrictions on the distances between uses. So, as was mentioned there is in the proposed rule a
distance of 200 only 200 feet for houses of worship and then it would be a little bit bigger 500 feet
for schools and otherwise there is no prohibition of restriction on distances between other types of
uses. They do have in the proposed rules the community facilities, which are, defined a little bit
differently than what you guys have in your proposal. So I would suggest that if you were going to
take a little bit more time to look at this,that you revamp that list and make it match what the State is
Regular Town Board Meeting, 01-23-2023, MTG#3 54
using for their the different lists, the different uses that they have under community facilities which
includes things like daycares and public parks and things like that. It's sort of close to what you have
but it doesn't mirror it exactly and it says in those proposed rules from the State that you cannot
impose a restriction at least this is how I am reading it of a distance that is greater than 500 feet
between the cannabis use and one of those community facilities. So, again our bottom line request is
that you remove the amusement centers and campgrounds from your list if you leave it the way it is
or change it to community facilities and reduce it that down to 200 feet or at most 500 feet. So, I
know that may require you to take a little bit more time but I do think it is important that you get this
right and do it once and hope that gets through the State without too many hurdles. I did double check
the comment period for the State proposed regulations is until February 13t'. So I think if you make
a few changes and looked at this again at a future meeting you still have time to put in comments from
the Town Board. Thank you for your consideration.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Thank you. Anybody else from the public? Yes, sir. Yes, come on
down. State your name for the record please.
NICK CHIARAVALLE-Yes, my name is Nick Chiaravalle, resident of Queensbury. I just wanted
to say that I am very happy for the opportunity and excellence that the Town Committee and Board
Meeting is putting together doing these rules and regulations. I just wanted to say that I look forward
to the opportunities the cannabis businesses is going to be coming forward to Queensbury and the
opportunities of the new jobs that will be creating for Queensbury. I just wanted to say thank you.
Thank you for listening and taking the time and your efforts putting together this agreement and stuff
you are doing for today.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Okay,thank you.
MR. CHIARAVALLE-Thanks.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Anybody else present? Anybody online? All right, so as Ms. Braymer
said New York State is proposing some changes. They are taking public input on those proposed
changes and will do so until mid-February. Yes, we are allowed to restrict time, place and manner
and we don't believe that what the State is proposing will hold up. As a matter of fact,we would like
to have some input to the State as to what they are proposing may not be fully agreeable to your more
rural communities. And that if they wish to make it more agreeable to the more rural communities
than they should change something that definitely looks urban in its structure and appearance. So,
and to put things in perspective,the Valentis used to own the Agway or what used to be Agway. They
still own the building on the site. There's been one proposal to locate cannabis sales perhaps use I'm
not sure maybe both if you get both licenses. It is two separate licenses. There was some concern by
some members of the Town Board who may or may not speak up tonight that its proximity to the
Lake George Campsites where families and little kids are located and its proximity to what used to
be Skateland,the Fun Spot with the go carts and the kids and the families and everything. The other
thing that I want to point out is that anything we do adopt and this is Law you can go to the Zoning
Board and request a variance from the Law. So, if we say a 1,000 feet and you're 600 feet and you
have a good argument, the Zoning Board may give you a variance. So you have different options.
All right, so seeing again any member of the public wish to speak to this here? Attending through
Zoom? All right, let me close the public hearing.
CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Town Board discussions? Then will do SEQRA.
TOWN COUNSEL SCHACHNER-Sure, if we get there.
Regular Town Board Meeting, 01-23-2023, MTG#3 55
COUNCILMAN MCNULTY-John,to Ms.Braymer's comment,comments are due by February 13t'.
That is our next day so we would not have the chance to meet to vote again on this until February
13t'. Our original intent was to do this, to have our regulation so we could submit it to the State and
say this is what we want and think is a good idea. I understand the points she made and I read the
letter also but I think going forward is what we want. It's what the Town of Queensbury would like
to see going forward and we'd like to get that in front of the State so they have that as part of the
comments that they are reviewing.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Okay.
COUNCILMAN FERONE-I think in a previous Workshop I was the one who was vocal about in
particular the individual that came talking about the former Agway property there. I mean that is a
corridor where again you just said it the Great Escape, Martha's all of these different venues the mini
putt putt golfs and all of that. It is very family oriented. I just didn't see a cannabis business in the
middle of all of that being the right place for that. So, now again I think that the Valenti's had some
very well thought out ideas. They made me second-guess the issue of you know 1,000 feet whether
that is maybe too much even though we are a suburban area not an urban area. But I think we've had
enough conversation. I think we all felt comfortable where we were and in a good spot to submit
what we have put together. So I am fine if we want to move forward with what we have.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Okay and we do have a map which shows the commercial zones and
what is this Stu, the areas in the dark red all the areas where cannabis sales and use will be allowed?
Even with the 1,000 foot setback?
SENIOR PLANNER BAKER-I don't have the map in front of me but the map does show.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Yes, it is red and on the map it says cannabis sales and use locations. So
all the areas in dark red are areas that would be allowed, quite a few areas.
SENIOR PLANNER BAKER-Yes, in total that's about 192 parcels.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-So, it's not overly restrictive and if there's a good rational foundation for
doing so we will alter and amend the Law as we progress forward. Okay.
COUNCILMAN FREER-John, I guess my thoughts are we're already taking on the 500 feet to a
1,000 feet on some of the more important I guess and public kind of things. So you know they make
a good case about at least for us to consider aligning closer to the State and that's what we did by
going from 1,500 to a 1,000. My concern is if we have a list that includes more than a handful or
more than two handfuls of zones that may weaken our position to work on the things that I think we
are all more agreeable to schools, houses of worship and that kind of thing. So, as we move forward
if we do this, this evening and adopt this Law I think we're, we're we need to go in with our eyes
open that we're going to I'll say weaken our arguments to the State and to get them to shift a little bit
more toward. They are not going to buy everything that we say as my experience with bureaucracy
but you know in good faith if we show that we've taken the input from the community which I didn't
see any other input from any public source other than the two inputs that we have today. I'm just
worried that we're going to show up and not get a fair say because we sort of tried to oversell this.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Any last thoughts?
COUNCILMAN METIVIER-I just wanted to mention when the folks came in front of us to talk
about the Agway building at first I thought it was a terrific idea because I worry about that building
that you are not going to see too many businesses come along that want something like that. So I was
excited but when I mentioned what's the name going to be and they threw cannabis in the name which
surprised me. It was a deal breaker for me because up until that point you can pretty much obscure
Regular Town Board Meeting, 01-23-2023, MTG#3 56
any business you want but unless you have cannabis and big lights in front of you as you're driving
to the Fun Spot or the Great Escape and you are going to have kids driving by and of course the next
conversation going to be what's cannabis? That was where Ms. Braymer, I was totally like taken
back by that and they were adamant about it so I was kind of like well that really is a deal breaker for
me. Up until that point I thought it was a great use but you know and that's what we've been dealing
with all along. What are the implications of this going to be and this particular case they came right
out and said it's going to be cannabis. I just think that is going to be an issue. I just think that is
setting the wrong precedence and I am not saying that you can't advertise and you can't have your
own name but in that particular area and that particular building if they had just said anything else I
would have been much more apt to be in favor of it. That was totally a deal breaker.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Okay, anything else?
COUNCILMAN METIVIER-No,not really. I just understand.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-All right, Town Counsel Mark Schachner would you please guide us
through the SEQRA process.
TOWN COUNSEL SCHACHNER-All right,so we are looking at Part two of the Full Environmental
Assessment Form. Part one already having been previously completed although it needs to be dated,
Stu or Supervisor, I'm just reminding you that Part one needs to be dated. Just before we go through
again this happens semi-frequently especially with zoning amendments you may find boy it doesn't
really seem like the questions really apply to this type of activity or action which is the amendment
to the Zoning Law but the more concert,one could argue that it's not even defined as an action subject
to SEQRA review but the most appropriate approach we believe is treat it as an action subject to
SEQRA review go through the Environmental Assessment Form which if you are ready we can do
right now? You already have Part one. You've already reviewed Part one and again remember that
in Part two of the what's called the Full or Long Environmental Assessment Form there are threshold
questions eighteen of them. If the answer to any of the eighteen threshold questions is no you don't
need to look to the sub questions under any of those items. If the answer is affirmative to any of the
threshold questions then we look to the sub questions underneath them.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Can we make the point to the public that no doesn't mean no impact? It
means small impact may occur.
TOWN COUNSEL SCHACHNER-Well no, means no impact but if you believe that is small impact
is a possibility but nothing larger than a small impact. Then one of the in my opinion weakness' of
the SEQRA form is the answer is in the same column. So whether you feel if something doesn't have
an impact at all then the answer is no this is in the sub questions we would be checking the first
column which is no or small impact. If you feel that this would only come up when we get to the sub
questions but if you feel that one of the sub questions causes a small impact you check the very same
box as if you feel that it has no impact. Many people, myself included,find that not very user friendly
and not very commonsense or logical. Neither I nor my colleagues or anybody else in this room are
the authors of the SEQRA forms. But the threshold question is really more of a black,white,yes,no.
Will there be an impact in whatever the threshold question is. If the answer is affirmative, then we
go through the sub questions and get to the no or small or moderate to large. If the answer to the
threshold question is no impact at all, we don't get to the sub questions. I don't know if any of that
makes sense. That's pretty much the best I can do and I do this all the time. It's just not a very,we've
done it here many times but it's not a very user friendly document in my opinion and many other
people's opinions.
SUPERVISOR STROUGH-Thank you. Okay, let's begin.

7.0 TOWN BOARD DISCUSSIONS
COUNCILMAN MCNULTY-(WARD IV)
• Referred to the status of 27 Indiana Avenue and noted that the Judge's new Citation is
working which if the owners go to the house they could go to jail for 30 days. Still need
to go forward with the discussion on the demolition. My thanks for the Town Board
supporting the demolition and the neighbors' support that as well.
COUNCILMAN FERONE-(WARD III)
• Announced that the Town will be scheduling public comment on a project, adaptive traffic
control for Quaker and Aviation Road.
COUNCILMAN FREER-(WARD II)
• Referred to the University Games recently held at Lake Placid and Gore. It was a positive
for the North Country and I volunteered at Gore.
• Enjoyed attending the West Glens Falls EMS Banquet.
• Spoke regarding an article in the Post Star about Short Term Rentals driving up the price
of housing.
• Congratulations to Jackie White on becoming a City Judge.
COUNCILMAN METIVIER-(WARD I)
• Spoke regarding the trail at Rush Pond that he and his wife enjoyed. Rush Pond is a gem
and it's being widely used. Sometimes the trails have to be closed, conditions force them
to close the trails and that information is found on Facebook. My concern is this needs to
be placed somewhere else as well, some people do not get on Facebook. Please pick up
after your dog if you are on the trails.

doing a great job with the trail. There is going to be a section of Feeder Canal that will be
