APPROVAL OF MINUTES
The minutes of the meeting of December 13, 1967 were
presented and on motion duly made and seconded, ap-
proved as submitted.
SOUNDVIEW WOODS SUBDIVISION
Mrs. Dorothea Moore of 7 Woodland Avenue, Larchmont,
an Attorney representing Investors Collateral appeared
before the Board with a second revised subdivision
map of the Soundview Woods Section 1 and 2 showing
changes in lots 2 and 3.
The revised map showed lot 2 as a buildable lot con-
taining 30,537.93 sq. ft. but the Board felt they
could not approve the proposed road as the curve
was much too sharp. Mr. Paul Lavalle, Architect,
stated that the only other possible solution would
be for them to try and negotiate an exchange of pro-
perty with Mr. Singer who is the owner of the par-
cel adjoining lot 3. Mr. Lavalle thought it might
be possible to exchange a small piece of Mr. Singer's
property for part of lot 3 which is not at present
a buildable lot, so that the curve could be straigh-
tened on the proposed road.
After further discussion the Board advised Mr. Lavalle
to contact Mr. Singer to explore the possibility
of exchanging some of his land for part of lot 3
and return at next month's meeting on February 14,
1968 with a proposal which will give a more desir-
able road alignment.
LAUREL AVENUE
Mr. Carducci, owner of the property on Laurel Avenue,
appeared before the Board and stated that Mr. Hunter
Meighan, his Attorney, had received approval from
the Town Board to construct street improvements on
a 25 foot wide street. The Planning Board had re-
ceived no communication from the Town Board in re-
gard to their acceptance of the 25 foot street and
Mr. Bloom attempted to contact Mr. Johnston, the
Town Attorney by telephone for clarification and
information on the Town Board's action but was un-
able to reach him.
The Chairman requested Mr. Carducci to step out of
the room while the Board discussed this situation.
Mr. Maggini requested the Secretary to obtain a
copy of the Town Board Resolution approving the
acceptance of the 25 foot street and mail copies
to all the Board members. When Mr. Carducci re-
turned the Chairman advised him to return at the
next Planning Board Meeting on February 14, 1968.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business to come before this
meeting it was adjourned at 9:30 p.m.
