Re: Garage

Dear Mr. &Mrs.Lambert:
I am writing you to in response to my review of a plan submitted to this office relative to the
building that you have constructed on your property.
I have reviewed the plans submitted with your building permit application and find that the
project will require an Area Variance from our Zoning Board of Appeals and, potentially, Site
Plan Review with our Planning Board. Specifically, the location of your garage does not meet
minimum side and rear setback requirements of the Moderate Density Residential; (MDR)
district. Further, the plans submitted do not contain an accurate floor plan for the first floor and
second floor of the structure. These plans are necessary for the furtherance of both your building
permit application and the necessary Area Variance. Additionally, our records, as well as your
submitted survey, indicate that the parcel on which the garage is located is a separate parcel from
your house parcel. In order to avoid a Use Variance, you will need to combine the parcels, by
deed, to be under the one ownership. Site Plan Review is necessary for the construction of any
freestanding structure that is within 50 feet of any slopes greater than 15%. You will need to
provide this office with a topographic map so that we can determine the severity of the slopes
surrounding your structure and make a determination regarding the need for Site Plan Review.
It is my expectation that you will address this matter immediately. Attached please find our Area
Variance and Site Plan Review applications for your convenience. Should you have any
questions or comments regarding your project please do not hesitate to contact this office.
Sincer-ly,
Craig Brown
Zoning Administrator

"HOME OF NATURAL BEAUTY . . . A GOOD PLACE TO LIVE"
SETTLED 1763 C/
May 5, 2014
To whom it may concern:
This letter is concerning the building/retaining wall that was constructed at 36 Twin Channels
Road in Queensbury. In our back yard we have a very large bank which we have maintained
since we have lived here. That area is very unstable. When it rains heavy, or with the frost
going in and out of the ground makes a lot of the dirt erode. That is why there was a retaining
wall there. When we saw that the old wall was failing that is when we put up the concrete
retaining wall. We knew in doing this that we would never have to worry about the wall failing
again. That is why wall is so close to the property line bordering Reginald Reynolds at 32 Twin
Channels Road. On that side is where a lot of dirt had moved. When we put up this wall with
the knowledge and acceptance of Mr. Reynolds this will also help protects that corner of his
property. The area behind the concrete wall is now angled so there will be no pooling of rain
water or melting snow. We can now plant grass on it which will help control any dirt from
eroding further plus it will improve the look of it. With the property lines running at the angle
that they do there was no other place to put our storage shed except to use the space between
the "L" walls that come out for the support of the retaining wall. So that is the reason the
building ended up so close to the property line on that side. We do not have a garage here so
when we built the shed we put on a garage door for convenience only. We use it for getting
bigger items out like our lawn mower & 4 wheelers. Up above the shed it just storage space for
our outdoor furniture and things that I would not want or can't get into my basement. To the
right of the shed is our woodshed. There is no door on this. Since the wing walls for the
retaining wall were already there we thought this would be a great out of the way place to
store our firewood. Like I said before the property lines run at such an angle there really wasn't
another space to put it. We wanted everything to look clean and neat so instead of tarping the
wood my husband put on the roof to keep the wood dry from the snow and rain.
With the application information that is required and this letter, I have also included a letter
stating that our neighbor Reginald Reynolds does not have a problem if a variance is granted for
the structure.
We want to thank you very much for your time and consideration in the above matter.
Sincerely,
Kenneth and Lisa Lambert

To whom it may concern:
I Reginald Reynolds residing at 32 Twin Channels Road in Queensbury do not have a problem
with the structure/building that Kenneth and Lisa Lambert residing at 36 Twin Channels Road in
Queensbury have built on the property line. I have no issues if the town of Queensbury issues a
variance for this structure. With the signing of this paper I give my full permission for the
variance of this structure. Thank you for your time.
Reginald Reynolds
