APPLICATION FOR SPECIAL PERMIT - AUTO REPAIR SHOP - 635 FIFTH AVENUE
BLOCK 132 PARCEL 643
Mrs. Josephine Acocella, the owner of the property in
question appeared before the Board. The Town Board had
referred the application to the Planning Board for reco-
mmendations . In her application, Mrs. Acocella said the
property has been for sale for three years and the pur-
pose of renting is to provide some income until the pro-
perty is sold. The property was formerly used as a
nursery under a variance and is located in a "B" Business
Zone. Mrs. Acocella further stated in her application
that no other structure will be constructed on the pro-
perty and the present two car garage will be used for
auto repairs .
The Planning Board decided they would recommend to the
Town Board that the building only be used for mechanical
repairs and all work to be performed inside the garage.
In addition, they also recommended that no new or used
cars be sold or stored on the property and no junks or
derelicts are to be parked or stored on the property.
Also, the Planning Board recommended that no additions
or alterations be allowed and that the property should
not be sold as an auto repair shop . The Board questioned
about the lease and the applicant said it was on a month
to month basis. The Board recommended that the permit
should be granted for a two year period and if the appli -
cant wanted to extend the permit they could reapply for
another two year extension.
PRELIMINARY HEARING - MARX' S PROPERTY
Mr. Van Suetendael , the Engineer for the applicants re-
ported that the computations were completed and that the
center line of the proposed roadways would be staked and
cleared for additional survey information for the construc-
tion drawings. The developers requested the Public Hear-
ing for November but the Board decided they would have
to see more completed drawings before they could set a
date for the final hearing.
Mr. Roger Sirlin, an Attorney, represented some of the
residents of Fairway Drive who object to the placement
of one of the proposed roads. Mr. Van Suetendael agreed
to meet with Mr. Anderson, an Architect, hired by the
residents of Fairway Drive.
The residents of Wagon Wheel support the plan showing
the three roads that had been presented by Mr. Anderson
at the last meeting.
