A) That the Club shall install and construct a noise barrier to a height of twenty (20) feet above the pool deck elevation . . . .

And thereupon, since there was no further discussion or question, on a motion by Councilman Cook and seconded by Councilman Brush, the following resolution was offered; WHEREAS, Winged Foot Golf Club heretofore applied to this Board for a Special Permit pursuant to Sections 410, 432.and 449 of the Zoning Ordinance of the Town of Mamaroneck to construct a swimming pool on the golf course owned by Winged Foot Golf Club and known as Block 347 - Parcel 1 on the Tax Assessment Map of the Town of Mamaroneck; and WHEREAS, the Board referred the matter of the appli- cation to the Planning Board for a report pursuant to Section 432 of the Zoning Ordinance by resolution duly adopted on January 17th, 1962; and WHEREAS, the Planning Board, after considering this application and holding hearings, following which the ap- plicant modified the plans previously submitted and filed with the Planning Board a plan for the construction of the pool and appurtenances described as "Scheme B", made and submitted its report to this Board; and WHEREAS, a public hearing was held by this Board on April 16th, 1962, following publication of due notice as provided in Section 432 of the Zoning Ordinance and the Town Law, at which all persons who appeared were af- -5- forded an opportunity to be heard, and at which counsel for certain persons objecting to the granting of this ap- plication was heard and submitted a memorandum in writing, and counsel for the applicant, together with his architect and contractor, were heard, and the hear- ing declared closed and decision reserved; and WHEREAS, this Board has considered the matter and retained Stannard M. Potter, President of United Acou- stic Consultants, Inc, , to investigate and report on the problem of noise control as relating to the granting of this application; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board finds as follows: That a permit should be granted to Winged Foot Golf Club subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter stated for the following reasons: That the location and size of the pool and its appurte- nances including the sound barrier required, are in harmony with the appropriate and orderly development of the district in which the pool is proposed to be located; That the proposed location of the pool, the nature and height of the buildings, walls, sound barrier, and fences, and the nature and extent of the landscaping, all as hereinafter required, will not hinder or dis- courage the appropriate development and use of adja- cent land and buildings; That the operation of the pool with the required sound barrier, together with the other restrictions and con- ditions regarding its use, will not be more objec- tionable to nearby property owners by reason of noise, fumes, flashing of lights, vibration or other aspects than would be the operation of other club activities on the grounds of the club, or the operation of family swimming pools legally existing on adjacent residen- tial property; That the streets giving access to the club are in har- mony with the appropriate and orderly development of the district; That the existing parking areas are of adequate size for the proposed swimming pool and are suitably i located; And that the facts in support of the above reasons are as follows: a) The club now constitutes a conforming use in ac- cordance with Section 449 of the Zoning Ordinance sub- ject to the extension of such use by the construction of the proposed swimming pool upon the granting of a 6- special permit pursuant to Section 432, b) The proposed swimming pool is an appropriate and reasonable use of property of the golf club, c) The residential area surrounding the proposed pool is substantially developed and there are family swimming pools located in this area which comply with existing or- dinances of the Town, — d) The club has two access streets, one from Fenimore Road and the other from Old White Plains Road, e) Two parking areas are already provided on club grounds, one of which is adjacent to the proposed pool and is to,be paved, and such areas are adequate in view of the fact that the use of the pool will be limited to the club mem- bership and therefore will not generate any substantial ad- ditional amount of traffic using the entrances and exits of the club property, which entrances and exits now ade- quately serve the membership and will continue to serve the membership using the pool as well as the other club facilities, f) The acoustic barrier as hereinafter required will re- duce the noise attending the normal operation of the pro- posed pool to a level below that to which abutting property owners could reasonably object, and would screen the view of the pool area from abutting property without becoming architecturally objectionable and without being visually out of harmony with the neighborhood, and be it FURTHER RESOLVED, that a permit is hereby granted to the Winged Foot Golf Club pursuant to Section 432 of the Zoning Ordinance of the Town of Mamaroneck to construct and maintain a swimming pool with the appurtenances and buildings as shown on the plans filed with the application and supplemented and modified by "Scheme B" as sub- mitted to the Planning Board on March 5th, 1962, and fur- ther supplemented and modified by the following conditions subject to which this permit is granted.
