Andrew Tung presented stating the Town Board approved the referral of the Special Permit amending the BMUB district to allow for the addition of the extra floor increasing the proposed building height by 12 feet. Mr. Tung stated the proposed building would remain essentially the same except for the addition of a middle floor, increasing the number of units to 139; 32 one bedroom units and 107 two bedroom units for a net increase of 4 apartments. The Board noted it serves as an advisory board for a special permit in BMUB district and stated the Town Law requires it to treat this matter like a Site Plan. The Board then referred the matter to the Fire Department, BAR, Traffic Committee, WCPD and CMZC. Mr. Tung also discussed the Parking Deck stating that it currently has 77 spaces and the proposed deck would have 63 spaces on the lower level and 55 on the upper level. The two parking levels would be separate from each other as the site is too small for any other configuration. There would be a ramp to the upper deck, and a separate entry at the other end of the parking lot to the lower deck. Pedestrians would have access from both sides of the parking areas. The design of the parking lot will mirror the buildings in the neighborhood. Stephen Altieri stated that the intersection of Myrtle and North Chatsworth will get a new set of traffic signals as well as a median to slow down and control the flow of traffic. The median will be 6 feet wide with a 6 inch curb and filled with grass and trees. Lisa Young 14 North Chatsworth questioned the placement of the driveway from the upper level stating that the existing one is problematic. John Irving questioned about utilizing the small grassy area near the corner to increase the number of parking spaces, but Mr. Tung stated it would not increase the number of parking spaces and the green space is important. The Board discussed whether or not the matter required a public hearing of the Planning Board Pole Board Member Vote Marilyn S. Reader, Chair No C. Alan Mason No John A. Ortiz No Marc H.
