Re: `Al Treeworks' Site Plan
Corinth Road
JE 13-053
Dear Chairman Hunsinger and Board Members,
Attached is an application for site plan review pertaining to"Al Treeworks"property on Corinth
Road"just east of Minnesota Avenue. Al proposes to construct a new pre-engineered building
for overnight storage of their equipment and trucks. The rear of the building would be used to
stage firewood and wood chips for sale, but no wood processing other than cutting logs to length
would be done on the site. Additional overnight vehicle storage would be provided on the west
side of the building.
The site has been carefully designed to provide good access and internal traffic circulation, while
still protecting the residential uses to the east. Trucks would enter the site from Corinth Road via
the existing driveway, pass along the east side of the proposed building, and unload logs or wood
chips before entering the building or parking along the west side of the building. The wooded
area to the east of the driveway would be preserved as buffer, and a wood fence erected along the
east property line to protect the residential neighbors and provide site security for Al.
No new water supply or wastewater management is needed for the storage building. Stormwater
management in accordance with Town standards has been provided via pretreatment stone
trenches that will collect and convey runoff to a shallow infiltration area.
Please feel free to call our office at 792-2907, or email me at tjarrett@jarrettengineers.com. We
look forward to discussing this project with the Planning Board.
Sincerely,
JARRETT Engineers, PLLC

Town of Queensbury Planning Office- 742 Bay Road • Queensbury, NY 12804• 518-761-8220 7
§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."
The proposed project fulfills the required standards in the following ways:
Standards
A. The proposed project furthers or is consistent with the policies of the Town's
Comprehensive Plan.
Proposal: The project entails the location of a commercial business in a
commercial/light industrial zone along Corinth Road, an area targeted for
business growth in the Town.
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.
Proposal: All standards will be met with the exception that a waiver of the
buffer requirements is herewith requested. The required buffer between
residential uses and commercial/light industrial uses is a 50' wide vegetated
strip. Al's proposal is to provide a 20' wide vegetated strip supplemented by
a 10' high wood fence along the boundary separating the residential area. The
existing property contains woodland in the area where the 20' buffer would be
located, and any `holes' in the buffer would be filled with saplings
transplanted at the time of site development. The wood fence is proposed to
further reduce the potential for impacts to the residents along Minnesota Ave,
and to provide a security barrier for Al.
An existing driveway entering the site is to be used and extended for use by
Al. That driveway is routed along the eastern side of the property, and
saplings removed from the site development area will be transplanted to the
eastern edge of the driveway to soften the effects of traffic entering the site.
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.
Proposal: Pedestrian activity on this site is not to be encouraged.
D. The site plan must conform to Chapter 136 Sewer and Sewage Disposal,
Chapter 147 Stormwater Management Local Lay, and other applicable local
laws.
Proposal: Existing rest room facilities on the roe are to be
g property rry used during
the infrequent times that employees are working on this site.
Stormwater management in accordance with Queensbury standards has been
provided.
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.
Proposal: The proposed site use is consistent with the intent of the
Queensbury Comprehensive Plan and Zoning ordinance. The site design is
also protective of neighboring residential uses, albeit those uses are pre-
existing but non-conforming in the CLI zone.
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.
Proposal: The site design takes into account the need for internal truck
movement, and parking, and no truck parking is proposed either on or
adjacent to a public road. Truck traffic exiting onto Corinth Road is not
expected to create nuisance conditions, as the traffic is infrequent (essentially
morning and night), and this section of Corinth Road is suitable for
commercial driveways.
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.
Proposal: Off-street parking, and loading, have been accommodated in the
site design. Future connection to adjoining properties is possible, as needed,
but connection to the properties to the east (residential) will not be practical
and likely not warranted.
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.
Proposal: In as much as the Town has designated this area for commercial
and industrial development, no undue impacts to any natural or cultural
resources are expected.
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
movement. Pedestrian connections between adjacent sites shall e provided to
encourage pedestrian use.
Proposal: Not applicable; see above.
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.
Proposal: Stormwater management in accordance with Queensbury standards
has been provided with the site design, and the plan incorporates infiltration of
excess runoff from the developed area of the site up to the 50 year storm
event.
h. 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.
Proposal: Water supply is not required for the proposed storage building, and
existing rest rooms on the property will be used as necessary for the limited
periods that employees are on 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.
Proposal: Buffering to protect the residential uses to the east is described
above. Essentially,Al proposes to use existing vegetation, supplemented by a
10' high wood fence to minimize the chances for impacts to the residents
along Minnesota Avenue.
M. Fire lanes, emergency zones and fire hydrants will be adequate and meet the
needs and requirements of emergency service providers.
Proposal: Emergency access will be available throughout the site.
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.
Proposal: This area of Corinth Road is not subject to externally caused
flooding, and the design of the site will preclude flooding of structures.
0. The site plan conforms to the design standards, landscaping standards and
performance standards in this chapter.
Proposal: With the exception of the buffer separating the uses to the east
(residential), all other design standards have been met.
