00:00:50,88 --> 00:00:52,05

10
00:00:59,04 --> 00:01:03,32
Kelly to take just a moment if
you would to just update us on

11
00:01:03,50 --> 00:01:08,89
a couple of things coming up Bill the floor
is yours and welcome. Tony thank you

12
00:01:08,90 --> 00:01:12,60
Boruc My name is Bill Kelly. And I am

13
00:01:12,61 --> 00:01:18,87
a member of the American Legion Post.
Twelve twenty nine I live on Panorama trail

14
00:01:19,66 --> 00:01:20,12
and I've been

15
00:01:20,13 --> 00:01:26,25
a Legionnaire for twenty six years. A large
part of what the American Legion does

16
00:01:26,26 --> 00:01:28,76
is looked after veterans living and D.C.

17
00:01:28,77 --> 00:01:35,19
Still. In Penfield we have three main
cemeteries the Oakwood Cemetery on Barrett

18
00:01:35,20 --> 00:01:42,04
road which has approximately eight hundred
veterans in it St Joseph's cemetery

19
00:01:42,05 --> 00:01:49,02
on Penfield road has about thirty
veterans. And new to me is Smith

20
00:01:49,08 --> 00:01:55,90
cemetery on Gloria drive. Some
time ago the Legion placed

21
00:01:55,91 --> 00:02:01,29
a twenty five foot fly pull at
Oakwood and every year we put up

22
00:02:01,30 --> 00:02:04,96
a five by eight fly American
fly and appear Debbie

23
00:02:04,97 --> 00:02:11,73
a fly there and we honor the two Braman
brothers who are interned there one is

24
00:02:11,74 --> 00:02:18,43
interned there ones in France. That we
put up for fly on their particular grave

25
00:02:18,44 --> 00:02:25,14
sites. Since two thousand and six we've
been placing flags in St Joseph's cemetery

26
00:02:25,52 --> 00:02:31,91
and last year we were told by
Kathy the town Penfield historian

27
00:02:32,33 --> 00:02:38,96
about Simmons Smith's cemetery. And we
looked into it and Kathy had nine veteran

28
00:02:39,00 --> 00:02:45,42
name going back to civil war. For
the research funds seven more

29
00:02:45,66 --> 00:02:51,84
forgotten veterans. Diligent
took it under under their wing

30
00:02:52,65 --> 00:02:57,02
to honor these sixteen
veterans at Smith cemetery.

31
00:02:59,31 --> 00:03:03,94
Tonight I'm here to invite everyone here
and within the viewing audience of the

32
00:03:03,95 --> 00:03:06,17
television. To attend

33
00:03:06,18 --> 00:03:12,87
a dedication service for the Veterans
Memorial Garden on Memorial Day. May the

34
00:03:12,88 --> 00:03:16,72
thirtieth at three at one
thirty in the afternoon.

35
00:03:22,19 --> 00:03:27,47
Choosing Smith cemetery is located on
Gloria drive which is the connecting road

36
00:03:27,48 --> 00:03:33,16
between Penfield road red for four one to
the south and Atlantic Road to the north

37
00:03:33,64 --> 00:03:34,24
it sits on

38
00:03:34,25 --> 00:03:40,05
a hill overlooking the peaceful countryside
to the west when I first saw it I saw

39
00:03:40,06 --> 00:03:40,58
myself in

40
00:03:40,59 --> 00:03:46,58
a western movie an old western movie just
so peaceful resolve their ground there

41
00:03:47,04 --> 00:03:52,33
untouched. It was beautiful.
The cemetery started as

42
00:03:52,34 --> 00:03:58,99
a family plot by the Smith family the Smith
family moved into Penfield area in the

43
00:03:59,78 --> 00:04:00,92
eight hundred twenty S.

44
00:04:00,92 --> 00:04:07,82
. And. Mr Smith lost somebody
in his family and they buried

45
00:04:07,83 --> 00:04:13,35
him in the back yard. And one thing led
to another and then they were associated

46
00:04:13,36 --> 00:04:15,87
with the Lutheran Church because

47
00:04:15,88 --> 00:04:21,75
a lot of the people there were German and
they expanded into the move to church and

48
00:04:21,76 --> 00:04:28,66
Lutheran Church straight people in
Smith's cemetary. So that today we

49
00:04:28,67 --> 00:04:34,69
have about four hundred fifty people that
are buried in Smith's cemetery the latest

50
00:04:34,70 --> 00:04:41,52
that I know was but was buried there.
Two thousand and fifteen so it's still

51
00:04:41,53 --> 00:04:48,36
a semi active cemetery. We have
civil war veterans there up

52
00:04:48,37 --> 00:04:53,42
to and including the only ones that we
found were World War two veterans we have

53
00:04:53,43 --> 00:05:00,09
war and war one we have one woman that
was in the Army Air Corps that is

54
00:05:00,10 --> 00:05:06,74
buried there. So that's why I'm here tonight
fascinated if you would come to our.

55
00:05:08,69 --> 00:05:12,13
Dedication the weatherman
has promised me with

56
00:05:12,82 --> 00:05:19,55
a very good day. After
the dedication here the

57
00:05:19,56 --> 00:05:25,86
ceremonies at Penn field that you have
annually are asking you to have lunch

58
00:05:26,64 --> 00:05:31,15
and drive over to Smith cemetery which is
about I think three miles from here I'm

59
00:05:31,16 --> 00:05:36,58
not sure about that. In closing I would
like to thank all the people that have

60
00:05:36,59 --> 00:05:41,47
helped me the time boards have been very
helpful the pound people the workers you

61
00:05:41,51 --> 00:05:45,38
that we have working for us have been
most helpful to me in getting this

62
00:05:45,39 --> 00:05:51,95
organization done. But in particular I
would like to stand Stephen Lynch of the

63
00:05:51,96 --> 00:05:58,79
miller Brick Company in Greece they
donated at no cost to me or to the Legion

64
00:05:59,23 --> 00:06:04,66
all the pavers that we used to
put the sixteen people in on it.

65
00:06:06,16 --> 00:06:11,89
The bell guard company the makers of pavers
they gave us what we call the soldiers

66
00:06:11,90 --> 00:06:18,83
a small papers that go around
the big papers. And then

67
00:06:18,84 --> 00:06:24,42
Pearl the president of natural stone
works and I think it's around

68
00:06:24,43 --> 00:06:30,87
a quake he's up in Long Pond on long Pont
road and his property abuts the Long Pond

69
00:06:31,62 --> 00:06:34,20
but Dan he donated in

70
00:06:34,21 --> 00:06:40,14
a few you'll love it the tombstone the
stone that we have at the headstone.

71
00:06:41,29 --> 00:06:47,12
And there's an inscription on there. That
talking about the veterans then donated

72
00:06:47,13 --> 00:06:52,37
that to us he donated to slab
that's on the concrete bench there.

73
00:06:54,73 --> 00:06:59,07
And he inscribed all the papers
and then the headstones at

74
00:06:59,08 --> 00:07:05,51
a greatly reduced price. This
project in real money did not cost

75
00:07:05,91 --> 00:07:12,74
Penfield any money. A lot of people donated
their time and effort for this and

76
00:07:12,75 --> 00:07:16,54
that's about all I have I'd like that
everyone to come out are like up lots of

77

thank you for your efforts on
this and taking this on as

89
00:08:18,80 --> 00:08:24,65
a project I think this is really helping
to bring attention to those individuals

90
00:08:25,53 --> 00:08:30,51
who. Lived in and around this community and
the service that they perform for this

91
00:08:30,52 --> 00:08:36,81
country and to have them recognized
appropriately like you're doing I think is at

92
00:08:36,82 --> 00:08:40,52
bare minimum things that we should be doing
and I really appreciate and I know this

93
00:08:40,53 --> 00:08:44,96

a lot of time because we've got

111
00:10:14,90 --> 00:10:20,20
a number of members of staff and our
consultant that will highlight the everything

112
00:10:20,21 --> 00:10:26,81
that has taken place I will say that
this this project one might say started

113
00:10:27,26 --> 00:10:33,48
ten years ago or more when we put together
the two fifty quarter study from there

114
00:10:33,52 --> 00:10:38,08
we wanted to the comprehensive plan and
then within the comprehensive plan we had

115
00:10:38,09 --> 00:10:42,82
done a FIDE four areas for mixed
use and this board put together

116
00:10:43,14 --> 00:10:50,09
a committee of residents to study the whole
mixed use concept and to come back with

117
00:10:50,19 --> 00:10:56,66
recommendations so I just gave you about
ten or twelve years of history and less

118
00:10:56,67 --> 00:11:00,88
than thirty seconds but more importantly
what I want to do is I want to turn the

119
00:11:00,89 --> 00:11:06,21

of leading us up to why we started it down

133
00:12:03,24 --> 00:12:06,17
the road with mixed use
after him we do have

134
00:12:06,18 --> 00:12:12,34
a consultant Jim soaps. He was the committee's
consultant throughout the project

135
00:12:13,13 --> 00:12:15,16
helping us through the
mixed use piece and he has

136
00:12:15,17 --> 00:12:19,65
a lot of history experience with that so
he will talk about why mixed use where

137
00:12:19,66 --> 00:12:23,31
that's coming from you know what other parts
of the country are doing and you know

138
00:12:23,32 --> 00:12:28,41
what we're looking to implement with his
proposal. Second or senior template or

139
00:12:28,42 --> 00:12:33,20
will be getting up after that he walked the
board through the documents all of the

140
00:12:33,21 --> 00:12:37,00
documents are on line and we've kept that
up to date as we've gone through this

141
00:12:37,01 --> 00:12:42,31
project having the the manual up as we've
gone through drafts even as we've tried

142
00:12:42,32 --> 00:12:46,87
to be very open about the process as we've
gone along and it shouldn't be new to

143
00:12:47,28 --> 00:12:51,82
anybody that it's been interested where
this document is come from and what we're

144
00:12:52,06 --> 00:12:56,94
proposing the current documents been up
since September and then we've also had the

145
00:12:56,95 --> 00:13:01,81
ordnance on the line and tonight's
presentation there are many slides that have

146
00:13:01,82 --> 00:13:02,51
a lot of text on

147
00:13:02,52 --> 00:13:07,76
a lot of Mersenne if it's this presentation
will be put up on line after this

148
00:13:07,77 --> 00:13:12,61
meeting as well so you know don't get hung
up on whether you can read every line we

149
00:13:12,62 --> 00:13:12,86
know there's

150
00:13:12,87 --> 00:13:19,26
a lot of text and some pages some are
just there for for reference so. Also

151
00:13:19,92 --> 00:13:25,39
get into you know what's before the board.
Through this process basically there's

152
00:13:25,40 --> 00:13:28,67
a proposal from the committee to create

153
00:13:28,68 --> 00:13:34,73
a new zoning ordinance for mixed use which
if adopted in rezoning went ahead would

154
00:13:34,79 --> 00:13:38,66
amend the official zoning map and then
there's an actual manual that goes along

155
00:13:38,67 --> 00:13:42,42
with the ordinance that is referenced it
would be possibly the acceptance of mixed

156
00:13:42,43 --> 00:13:47,87
use manual once we kind of run through
all that. Get up at the end of it do

157
00:13:47,88 --> 00:13:52,66
a little bit about the next steps of you
know if you know the town board decides to

158
00:13:52,66 --> 00:13:56,13
move ahead you know one of the next steps
get into seeker and some other things

159
00:13:56,61 --> 00:14:02,45
obviously question and answer session
public comment input as well as hopefully

160
00:14:02,45 --> 00:14:06,48
some committee members put as well.
It would like to acknowledge

161
00:14:06,71 --> 00:14:12,05
a lot of people as part of this this is
been many years in the making it's been

00:14:12,06 --> 00:14:14,67

of the county D.O.T.

163
00:14:15,25 --> 00:14:16,99
Can't matter county parks department

164
00:14:17,85 --> 00:14:24,69
a neighborhood Representatives as well as
there are Committee and like to put that

165
00:14:24,70 --> 00:14:28,95
out there from the beginning we had three
steering committees and in Jim we'll get

166
00:14:28,96 --> 00:14:34,48
into that little bit more but this is the
committee's presentation this is their

167
00:14:34,49 --> 00:14:38,51
document staff is presenting it to you
tonight but this came from the committee

168
00:14:39,01 --> 00:14:43,57
this came and what they put forward staff
was there to help facilitate you know

169
00:14:44,27 --> 00:14:49,21
help move the project along but were present
in their work tonight and hopefully

170
00:14:49,77 --> 00:14:54,44
you see some of the be here and if there's
questions from that. Also like to

171
00:14:54,45 --> 00:14:58,18
recognize that your buttons easier
this evening this was made possible by

172
00:14:58,19 --> 00:15:00,43
a regional grant from G.T.C.

173
00:15:01,00 --> 00:15:05,95
To get this going they're looking at
different types of uses to deal with traffic

174
00:15:06,66 --> 00:15:12,43
to look at you know reducing urban sprawl
So this was a first of its kind for G.T.C.

175
00:15:12,44 --> 00:15:17,28
To to sponsor planning study for something
like this normally they work on road

176
00:15:17,29 --> 00:15:22,61
projects and other things more involved
with the transportation end of it. So some

177
00:15:22,62 --> 00:15:25,84
of the objectives we originally started
out with the project was identifying the

178
00:15:25,85 --> 00:15:26,66
study areas

179
00:15:27,04 --> 00:15:31,01
a comprehensive plan and again Jim will
get more into that recommended looking at

180
00:15:31,02 --> 00:15:35,54
four different areas the Four
Corners sales lending which are was

181
00:15:35,55 --> 00:15:38,87
a mix you serious today also
talked about two fifteen minutes

182
00:15:38,88 --> 00:15:42,73
a lake and we will reference minute to Lake
in the discussion this evening for that

183
00:15:42,74 --> 00:15:46,44
was a large part of our discussions
that has subsequently been sold off to

184
00:15:46,45 --> 00:15:51,17
a private individual who is asked for it
not to be rezoned at this time we preserve

185
00:15:51,18 --> 00:15:56,52
that work so it's not lost but that may
come up again in the future. We did take

186
00:15:56,53 --> 00:16:01,27
a look at all the parcels along that two
fifty corridor what might be eligible for

187
00:16:01,70 --> 00:16:07,21
more potential for rezoning we drafted the
mixed use development manual and part of

188
00:16:07,22 --> 00:16:08,76
that is for G.T.C.

189
00:16:08,77 --> 00:16:11,31
Is to provide that back to them so that's

190
00:16:11,32 --> 00:16:14,88
a deliverable at the end of this project
no matter what happens is deliverable back

191
00:16:14,89 --> 00:16:15,66
to G.T.C.

192
00:16:15,67 --> 00:16:20,48
Is that mixed use manual that they could
you know pass along to other communities

193
00:16:20,49 --> 00:16:27,16
for them to possibly implement something
similar pretty legislation. We created

194
00:16:27,17 --> 00:16:30,87
in an ordinance to go for
this project it would create

195
00:16:30,88 --> 00:16:36,85
a new zoning district if this proposal
moved ahead within our code so similar to

196
00:16:36,86 --> 00:16:39,44
the general business being our
other residential This would be

197
00:16:39,45 --> 00:16:45,62
a new thing that could be implemented
throughout the town and then obviously coming

198
00:16:45,63 --> 00:16:49,65
to tonight's meeting is presenting the
committee's work kind of the combination of

199
00:16:49,66 --> 00:16:56,59
all that to the town board having the
public hearing and in moving that along. So

200
00:16:57,47 --> 00:16:57,97
just kind of

201
00:16:57,98 --> 00:17:04,09
a quick review you know why did we decide
to do mixed use where did it come from

202
00:17:04,95 --> 00:17:07,26
obviously wasn't something we just you
know picked out of the year and said you

203
00:17:07,27 --> 00:17:10,43
know this would be a great
spot for it. We did have

204
00:17:10,44 --> 00:17:14,55
a two fifty quarter study and they did
start back in two thousand and eight that

205
00:17:14,56 --> 00:17:18,23
looked at this quarter all the way from
Webster down to Victor analyze the area

206
00:17:18,24 --> 00:17:22,55
looked at basically have to state highways
between route to fifty and in Atlantic

207
00:17:22,56 --> 00:17:27,39
Avenue is the intersection of two state
highways and doing planning looking ahead

208
00:17:27,83 --> 00:17:31,70
every property wouldn't tunnel Penfield
hazard and underlined zoning to it so now

209
00:17:31,71 --> 00:17:35,85
the question always comes up you know we
like it to be harmful we like to remain

210
00:17:35,86 --> 00:17:41,42
that way if it has its own into it has the
potential for development so looking at

211
00:17:41,43 --> 00:17:46,20
what is the best option for the town of
Penfield moving forward. If it's going to

212
00:17:46,21 --> 00:17:50,07
develop into something some day the whole
intent of this was to kind of get ahead

213
00:17:50,08 --> 00:17:55,33
of it do something for Smart Growth look
at controlling sprawl also providing

214
00:17:55,34 --> 00:18:00,41
things there tax positive for the
community as we look at planing

215
00:18:00,74 --> 00:18:05,22
a lot of the current layout we had generated
after the war so in the in the fifty's

216
00:18:05,54 --> 00:18:09,97
everybody moved out of the city everyone
of their half acre in the country moved

217
00:18:09,98 --> 00:18:13,57
out and we kept building roads and building
roads and spreading now we're finding

218
00:18:13,58 --> 00:18:17,44
that more and more people are not looking
for that lifestyle not looking to to live

219
00:18:17,45 --> 00:18:20,95
in that and we're they were missing out
on our seniors and are missing out on our

220
00:18:21,07 --> 00:18:25,81
young professionals they want to either
agent in the community remain here don't

221
00:18:25,82 --> 00:18:26,36
want to maintain

222
00:18:26,37 --> 00:18:31,68
a four bedroom house on an acre lot but
want to live in the community but also

223
00:18:31,69 --> 00:18:37,36
looking at health healthy living something
that's sustainable as we look at urban

224
00:18:37,37 --> 00:18:40,83
sprawl that's something that that actually
is unsustainable and will have numbers

225
00:18:40,84 --> 00:18:44,97
showing that later on as you build more
roads of half acre lots half acre lots

226
00:18:45,57 --> 00:18:46,08
that's actually

227
00:18:46,09 --> 00:18:49,91
a tax negative to the community so we're
looking at something that makes sense

228
00:18:50,41 --> 00:18:55,96
targets those areas we're looking at. And
also and we do have all the commercial

229
00:18:55,97 --> 00:19:01,98
corridor areas in the town this border
is you know has been cognizant of making

230
00:19:01,99 --> 00:19:05,47
sure we're sustainable with that but
ninety two percent of our community is all

231
00:19:05,48 --> 00:19:10,57
residential homes sooner to diversify
the tax base you look at other areas of

232
00:19:10,61 --> 00:19:15,19
whether it's commercial office space or
something else scuse me to help supplement

233
00:19:15,20 --> 00:19:21,78
that tax base so with that zero turn
over the next phase to Tim Costello.

234
00:19:24,46 --> 00:19:29,10
And for those that may not know Jim Costello
he's our development services director

235
00:19:29,71 --> 00:19:32,08
for the town of Penfield and has been

236
00:19:32,09 --> 00:19:36,93
a member of our team for thirty four years
so Mr Costello actually going on thirty

237
00:19:36,94 --> 00:19:38,20
seven you missed

238
00:19:38,21 --> 00:19:44,43
a couple. You were out there I don't my
wife tells me I don't do well so apologize

239
00:19:44,44 --> 00:19:48,06
Mr gusto I was lucky enough to have this
telephone hire me thirty seven years ago

240
00:19:48,07 --> 00:19:51,39
and I've been very thankful for that
said the so I'm just going to give you

241
00:19:51,40 --> 00:19:56,92
a brief history of what has occurred to
this point tonight is the combination is as

242
00:19:57,05 --> 00:20:00,60
Tony and Marco stated it's the culmination
of ten years of work on the part of

243
00:20:00,61 --> 00:20:05,97
three citizen committees the first one was
back in two thousand and five it started

244
00:20:06,94 --> 00:20:09,96
a small committee was created the
we were lucky enough to secure

245
00:20:09,97 --> 00:20:11,61
a grant from the G.T.C.

246
00:20:11,90 --> 00:20:15,55
So appalled that microphone right up there
Mr Costello So I had never been able to

247
00:20:15,56 --> 00:20:20,71
use the gag Tucker I've got that nailed I
thought better that's perfect great so

248
00:20:20,72 --> 00:20:22,94
we're looking up to receive
a grant from the G.T.C.

249
00:20:23,00 --> 00:20:26,56
And this the grant was really among the
three towns of running I'm sorry about

250
00:20:26,81 --> 00:20:32,10
Webster Penfield and Parrington to study
the corridor from the lake right on down

251
00:20:32,11 --> 00:20:37,09
to Route ninety six. Their intent was
to look at the existing and propose

252
00:20:37,10 --> 00:20:41,60
conditions along that corridor based on
potential growth rates that were occurring

253
00:20:41,61 --> 00:20:45,91
in the three towns they looked at existing
conditions and then interpreted what

254
00:20:45,92 --> 00:20:50,70
needed to be done to inquire to accommodate
future growth. During that study it was

255
00:20:50,71 --> 00:20:51,54
determined that

256
00:20:51,55 --> 00:20:56,76
a Penfield had more vacant land than the
other two towns combined along that

257
00:20:56,77 --> 00:21:01,44
corridor or so the town board interested
in knowing what potentially could occur

258
00:21:01,45 --> 00:21:03,11
along that corridor or for

259
00:21:03,12 --> 00:21:07,00
a higher and best use rather than just
single family detached housing along the

260
00:21:07,01 --> 00:21:10,21
entire court or. Compose

261
00:21:10,22 --> 00:21:15,91
a committee to look at land use analysis
as part of an addendum to the traffic

262
00:21:15,92 --> 00:21:17,50
study that the T.T.C.

263
00:21:17,51 --> 00:21:21,47
Was preparing So as a result of
that the committee worked for about

264
00:21:21,48 --> 00:21:22,15
a year year and

265
00:21:22,16 --> 00:21:27,82
a half to determine the better uses along
the corridor or as market stated earlier

266
00:21:27,82 --> 00:21:31,33
. You know building single
family homes is a kind of

267
00:21:31,34 --> 00:21:34,76
a tax negative situation where you've got
to take care of infrastructure you've got

268
00:21:34,77 --> 00:21:38,10
to deal with more students coming
to the school district so as

269
00:21:38,11 --> 00:21:41,55
a result we looked at alternatives the
other thing the board was concerned about

270
00:21:41,56 --> 00:21:42,24
was we don't have

271
00:21:42,25 --> 00:21:46,77
a lot of. Commercial development in the
town of the thirteen thousand parcels and

272
00:21:46,78 --> 00:21:51,19
Penfield about three hundred eighty persons
are zoned for commercial industrial use

273
00:21:51,83 --> 00:21:55,99
and because over the several years now that
development is occurred in around these

274
00:21:56,00 --> 00:21:59,55
commercial areas it's not reasonable
to expand those areas into residential

275
00:21:59,56 --> 00:22:04,34
settings where we have existing residences
and such close proximity we've had to

276
00:22:04,35 --> 00:22:05,00
wrestle with that on

277
00:22:05,01 --> 00:22:09,28
a couple of occasions over the last ten
years or so the thought was not to have any

278
00:22:09,29 --> 00:22:14,20
more big box development in new areas of
commercial development but to really look

279
00:22:14,21 --> 00:22:16,48
at residential development at

280
00:22:16,49 --> 00:22:20,76
a different scale with alternative housing
and also provide some types of mix of

281
00:22:20,77 --> 00:22:25,64
use to allow for commercial uses that are
scaled more to the area along to fifty

282
00:22:25,65 --> 00:22:26,32
and not so much on

283
00:22:26,33 --> 00:22:30,81
a regionalized basis like you would see in
other towns such as Henrietta or vector

284
00:22:30,82 --> 00:22:32,12
some of their towns are experiencing

285
00:22:32,13 --> 00:22:36,45
a lot of growth so the committee
got together for a period of about

286
00:22:36,46 --> 00:22:38,11
a year year and a half and came back with

287
00:22:38,12 --> 00:22:42,41
a recommendation for the land use analysis
that the town should consider something

288
00:22:42,42 --> 00:22:43,73
called a hamlet and it would be

289
00:22:43,74 --> 00:22:48,15
a mixed use development it would not be
single family has been has been proposed

290
00:22:48,16 --> 00:22:51,28
out there for the last
thirty years but it would be

291
00:22:51,29 --> 00:22:53,17
a mix of uses that would provide more of

292
00:22:53,18 --> 00:22:58,72
a connectivity more walking that type of
thing and not so much automobile dreaded.

293
00:23:00,08 --> 00:23:05,49
Surely after that every year or every ten
years the town town of Penfield reviews

294
00:23:05,50 --> 00:23:11,67
its use its Thank you Mary reviews its.
Comprehensive planning going into the

295
00:23:11,68 --> 00:23:17,45
comprehensive plan the corridor committee
had made some recommendations regarding

296
00:23:18,28 --> 00:23:23,66
the use of the corridor or as mixed
use. As we got to the point where the

297
00:23:23,67 --> 00:23:27,76
comprehensive plan was coming about for
review for the two thousand and ten period

298
00:23:27,76 --> 00:23:33,87
. That committee was created by the town
board that committee then when I had and

299
00:23:33,91 --> 00:23:38,44
looked at the recommendations of the court
or study and the committee that prepared

300
00:23:38,45 --> 00:23:41,95
it and agreed with the fact that it
would probably be appropriate to have

301
00:23:41,96 --> 00:23:48,11
a mixed use development not only on route
to fifty but also at the the former

302
00:23:48,98 --> 00:23:53,75
quarry down on Penfield road the Sandman
quarry they were also looking at the

303
00:23:54,20 --> 00:23:58,81
landing district on Empire Boulevard and
along with the four corners. Both of which

304
00:23:58,82 --> 00:24:02,78
are actually mixed use districts in their
own right at this time. We did move

305
00:24:02,79 --> 00:24:08,16
forward with the committee the committee
then did make recommendations that there

306
00:24:08,17 --> 00:24:13,16
should be an excuse in those areas
as an implementation feature of the

307
00:24:13,68 --> 00:24:18,01
comprehensive plan here you see I don't
expect it read any of this but it certainly

308
00:24:18,02 --> 00:24:22,12
is available to you on line these are the
recommendations that are discussed mixed

309
00:24:22,13 --> 00:24:27,18
use development and where they should be
within the town. After the committee was

310
00:24:27,22 --> 00:24:32,91
in here shows the districts as to where
they were proposed. Again to fifty being

311
00:24:32,92 --> 00:24:39,88
the the major one now as market noted
the property at. The same inquiry

312
00:24:39,89 --> 00:24:43,78
was recently purchased and the owners of
the property it indicated they were no

313
00:24:43,79 --> 00:24:46,90
longer interested in having development
on that site and would like to keep it in

314
00:24:46,91 --> 00:24:51,11
its current state their intent is to
maintain it is it is at this point time and

315
00:24:51,12 --> 00:24:51,93
not developed for

316
00:24:51,94 --> 00:24:57,30
a period of time if at all so we've gotten
to the point now where we talk about

317
00:24:57,96 --> 00:25:02,51
Again we talked about fiscal analysis
as it relates to development of

318
00:25:03,21 --> 00:25:07,22
a residential commercial and agricultural
land and obviously you can read more

319
00:25:07,23 --> 00:25:12,77
about that in the comprehensive
plan. After the comprehensive plan.

320
00:25:14,05 --> 00:25:18,78
Move forward became apparent that this would
be the area with the most interest for

321
00:25:19,32 --> 00:25:19,54
for

322
00:25:19,55 --> 00:25:24,58
a mixed use development within the tallent
surprised me three hundred sixty acres.

323
00:25:25,61 --> 00:25:29,39
We had several public hearings on the on
the comprehensive plan there seem to be

324
00:25:29,40 --> 00:25:35,51
support of the communities part for this.
The plan was eventually Here's the

325
00:25:35,52 --> 00:25:40,80
property at the Dolomite that has been
sold. Here the other two properties of the

326
00:25:40,81 --> 00:25:45,92
four corners and Empire Boulevard. And I
want to go back a second and just talk

327
00:25:45,93 --> 00:25:50,26
a little bit about the fact that that was
adopted by the town board one of the

328
00:25:50,27 --> 00:25:53,67
implementation features
was to look at creating

329
00:25:53,68 --> 00:25:57,36
a new district creating the boundaries
of a new district and creating

330
00:25:57,37 --> 00:26:00,18
a zoning ordinance to
accommodate it along with

331
00:26:00,19 --> 00:26:03,80
a manual that would give direction to those
who would like develop within it the

332
00:26:03,81 --> 00:26:05,21
town board then when I hadn't created

333
00:26:05,22 --> 00:26:09,05
a steering committee for the mixed use
development district for several people here

334
00:26:09,58 --> 00:26:16,11
in this audience tonight we thank them
all for attending and supporting it. And

335
00:26:16,12 --> 00:26:23,04
it's gotten us to the point now where. We
are at the public hearing process the Tom

336
00:26:23,05 --> 00:26:26,62
board did take into account the people
that lived around the property as you can

337
00:26:26,63 --> 00:26:31,10
see here it's not very easy to see but you
can see that they did select people for

338
00:26:31,11 --> 00:26:35,49
the committees to oversee that the
development of the district that were most

339
00:26:35,50 --> 00:26:41,36
impacted by the area. Obviously the two
fifty areas the area in orange and then the

340
00:26:41,37 --> 00:26:47,42
blue one is the the sad man lake property.
And with that I'm going to turn it over

341
00:26:47,46 --> 00:26:53,49
now to Jim sites who will give you process
on the use of mixed use in this area

342
00:26:53,69 --> 00:26:57,64
thank you. Thank you it's

343
00:26:57,65 --> 00:27:00,75
a pleasure to be here I actually think this
is the first time I've been to pin feel

344
00:27:00,76 --> 00:27:06,99
worried as it's as an snowed so appreciate
that. Just very quickly I'm with same

345
00:27:07,00 --> 00:27:12,04
kind of studios also on the
project was. And M.R.V.

346
00:27:12,05 --> 00:27:18,07
Group which will be more about when we
look at the environmental issues what is

347
00:27:18,08 --> 00:27:22,32
next you say it's one of those jokes it's
kind of like who's buried in Grant's tomb

348
00:27:22,33 --> 00:27:23,31
it's kind of

349
00:27:23,32 --> 00:27:30,19
a no brainer makes use is the idea of
variety different use is brought together

350
00:27:30,20 --> 00:27:30,82
to create

351
00:27:30,83 --> 00:27:36,00
a pedestrian scale development the idea
is you're emphasizing walkability.

352
00:27:37,50 --> 00:27:39,07
Compatible uses and there's

353
00:27:39,08 --> 00:27:44,34
a synergy of the uses so that you
come you park your car wants you do

354
00:27:44,35 --> 00:27:49,29
a variety of things there rather than
driving your car for each activity very

355
00:27:49,30 --> 00:27:53,40
quickly Penfield is not.
Very different than

356
00:27:53,41 --> 00:27:59,35
a lot of other communities it was it was
developed starting in the fifty's on an

357
00:27:59,36 --> 00:28:05,18
automobile automobile driven approach that's
when the G.I.'s came back we had G.I.

358
00:28:05,19 --> 00:28:10,44
Bill cars were affordable subdivisions
started to be developed the problem with

359
00:28:10,45 --> 00:28:14,94
that is it's very automobile intensity of
so the more development you have the more

360
00:28:14,95 --> 00:28:18,32
cars you have the more
congestion you have. There's

361
00:28:18,33 --> 00:28:22,27
a lot of benefits of make shoes develop and
we highlighted just some I'm not going

362
00:28:22,28 --> 00:28:25,98
to read these but to highlighted some of
those and read one of the things it does

363
00:28:25,99 --> 00:28:31,38
is it provides a diversity of housing
type so rather than having kind of

364
00:28:31,39 --> 00:28:33,92
a homogeneous type of housing you have

365
00:28:33,93 --> 00:28:38,84
a lot of different housing types for different
types of users it does conserve land

366
00:28:38,85 --> 00:28:44,23
and open space include an agricultural
land natural resources it reduces

367
00:28:44,24 --> 00:28:49,39
infrastructure costs pretty significantly
so rather than developing all along to

368
00:28:49,40 --> 00:28:54,35
fifty you develop in clusters in certain
areas so that allows you to concentrate

369
00:28:54,36 --> 00:28:59,14
your infrastructure development. Like
we said earlier I just said it reduces

370
00:28:59,15 --> 00:29:04,62
dependency on the automobile it promotes
walkability and it helps to decrease

371
00:29:04,74 --> 00:29:11,29
congestion. So when we talk
about smart growth and reducing

372
00:29:11,36 --> 00:29:15,98
sprawl Does couple of things about it
Smart Growth Development is usually

373
00:29:15,99 --> 00:29:22,86
a third less infrastructure costs street
infrastructure Centuri sewer water

374
00:29:22,87 --> 00:29:29,82
lines gas lines that sort of thing.
Develop just over time Smart Growth

375
00:29:29,83 --> 00:29:36,30
basically reduces the amount of money tax
payers have to pay by ten percent and one

376
00:29:36,31 --> 00:29:37,15
of the big things is

377
00:29:37,16 --> 00:29:42,40
a Smart Growth Development generates ten
times more tax revenue per acre than

378
00:29:42,41 --> 00:29:45,88
conventional subdivision
suburban development and in

379
00:29:45,89 --> 00:29:48,98
a place like Penfield where you have such

380
00:29:48,99 --> 00:29:53,03
a high percentage of land that's
residential oriented it provides

381
00:29:53,04 --> 00:29:58,07
a great level of diversity from the tax
base so show you examples have you been to

382
00:29:58,08 --> 00:30:02,05
Cornhill. We were going to take

383
00:30:02,06 --> 00:30:07,83
a field trip to corn hills in Rochester
it's right on the river it's a combination

384
00:30:07,84 --> 00:30:12,79
a mix use it at about one hundred thirty
apartments about fifteen thousand square

385
00:30:12,80 --> 00:30:18,70
feet of office fifteen thousand square feet
of commercial right on the river so it

386
00:30:18,71 --> 00:30:24,93
does have both boat access and great
views from the from the river this is

387
00:30:24,94 --> 00:30:27,78
Bainbridge Island this isn't
Washington State so if you take

388
00:30:27,79 --> 00:30:32,55
a ferry from Seattle straight west you
get Bainbridge Island I always said they

389
00:30:32,56 --> 00:30:32,84
spent

390
00:30:32,85 --> 00:30:37,99
a lot of money to look quaint so Bainbridge
Island has this really incredible mix

391
00:30:38,00 --> 00:30:44,69
use in there downtown area it's almost all
commercial retail on the bottom levels

392
00:30:44,73 --> 00:30:50,99
and apartments are condominiums on the top
levels. That Smyrna market village in

393
00:30:51,00 --> 00:30:55,35
Georgia that's where I live I live over
on the left hand side so if you're in the

394
00:30:55,36 --> 00:30:59,91
neighborhood stop by. This is this
the market village and give you

395
00:30:59,92 --> 00:31:03,59
a broader view of it Smyrna market
village was a little different than

396
00:31:03,60 --> 00:31:07,99
a lot of mixed uses it started
with the idea we want to develop

397
00:31:08,00 --> 00:31:13,48
a downtown so it's municipal driven
so you come into an entrance there's

398
00:31:13,49 --> 00:31:14,47
a park or there's

399
00:31:14,85 --> 00:31:21,78
a. Restaurant on both sides or some
Main Street office or commercial

400
00:31:21,79 --> 00:31:27,11
down the bottom part residential up on top
and at the end of the street there's the

401
00:31:27,12 --> 00:31:32,45
city hall or on the back inside there's
commercial buildings and on the back side

402
00:31:32,46 --> 00:31:33,05
of that there is

403
00:31:33,06 --> 00:31:37,94
a library and community center so that's
really kind of the heart of Smyrna and

404
00:31:37,95 --> 00:31:43,61
that's been around since about two thousand
this is the walk it's fairly it's also

405
00:31:43,62 --> 00:31:44,92
in Georgia has

406
00:31:44,93 --> 00:31:49,84
a very different approach it's much more
urban most of the structures in the five

407
00:31:49,85 --> 00:31:54,92
stories so it's either the first floor
of the bottom two floors it's red it's

408
00:31:54,93 --> 00:32:00,71
retail or commercial the upper two
per three sometimes four levels are

409
00:32:01,06 --> 00:32:05,46
condominiums or sometimes town homes and
then behind that on the other side you

410
00:32:05,47 --> 00:32:10,33
have more town homes and then behind that
there are single family residential.

411
00:32:12,51 --> 00:32:19,29
This is market Commons this is in
Myrtle Beach South Carolina. So this is

412
00:32:19,30 --> 00:32:24,35
actually the main boulevard going through
to true market comment this was built in

413
00:32:24,36 --> 00:32:30,42
two thousand and eight it has one hundred
fifteen acres multiuse development so

414
00:32:30,43 --> 00:32:36,21
it's mostly town homes small stores
restaurants that sort of thing this is just

415
00:32:36,22 --> 00:32:40,29
another image and one of the things that
they're one of the things that we did in

416
00:32:40,30 --> 00:32:45,95
the design guidelines for misuse design
guidelines was looking at how you perceive

417
00:32:45,96 --> 00:32:47,71
scale for example this is

418
00:32:47,72 --> 00:32:51,70
a four story building but if you notice
they actually take the top two levels and

419
00:32:51,71 --> 00:32:55,19
step it back so it's part of
that is to keep the idea of

420
00:32:55,20 --> 00:33:02,08
a pedestrian scale make it more
walkable make it more comfortable. This

421
00:33:02,09 --> 00:33:06,10
is bright leaf in Durham
North Carolina there are

422
00:33:06,11 --> 00:33:10,81
a series of historic structures that were
renovated and most of these have been

423
00:33:10,82 --> 00:33:15,64
developed into restaurants commercial
space some office space there's

424
00:33:15,65 --> 00:33:16,36
a few there's

425
00:33:16,37 --> 00:33:23,29
a little bit of residential space there's
well but it and it's all built it's all

426
00:33:23,30 --> 00:33:29,00
based upon this square. This
is blue black square this is

427
00:33:29,01 --> 00:33:33,89
a West Haven Connecticut So again five
Stories one of things you'll find about

428
00:33:33,90 --> 00:33:39,74
Makes use is you don't often find them
less than three stories so three to five

429
00:33:39,75 --> 00:33:44,82
stories seems to be kind of an optimum
height for maximizing what you need to do

430
00:33:44,83 --> 00:33:44,99
from

431
00:33:45,00 --> 00:33:51,75
a fire safety standpoint versus
economics. Blue black square has

432
00:33:51,76 --> 00:33:56,27
a about one hundred loops sorry
went too far it has about

433
00:33:56,28 --> 00:34:02,58
a million square feet of internal space
that has its commercial that's all for this

434
00:34:02,87 --> 00:34:08,95
that's residential and also mixed in with
this development you do have them in the

435
00:34:08,96 --> 00:34:15,13
municipal uses the town hall the library
the city police station is there as well.

436
00:34:16,56 --> 00:34:22,49
This is Belmont Square this is also in
Georgia the Belmont Square is interesting

437
00:34:22,50 --> 00:34:25,97
because it's the upper left hand
corner what they did first it's about

438
00:34:25,98 --> 00:34:31,33
a forty eight acre development so first
thing they did in the mixed use development

439
00:34:31,34 --> 00:34:36,32
is they develop an elementary school and
the elementary schools the driving force

440
00:34:36,33 --> 00:34:42,74
for the rest of the development so the
lower left hand corner those are those are

441
00:34:42,75 --> 00:34:48,81
apartment complexes so there's about three
hundred apartments that are adjacent to

442
00:34:48,82 --> 00:34:50,10
the school and what's

443
00:34:50,27 --> 00:34:54,65
a little different from Nick's use is that
the apartments all leased out in about

444
00:34:54,66 --> 00:35:00,00
a month and they were mostly by young
families who had small children who went to

445
00:35:00,01 --> 00:35:06,19
school so the majority of the people
leasing the apartments don't own cars the

446
00:35:06,23 --> 00:35:11,00
fathers take the bus to work the mother
does everything that they need to do with

447
00:35:11,01 --> 00:35:13,10
kids within the makes you so it's all

448
00:35:13,41 --> 00:35:16,62
a walkable community the
other view so there's

449
00:35:16,63 --> 00:35:21,31
a commercial up on the upper right hand
corner there's about fifty single family

450
00:35:21,32 --> 00:35:25,43
homes what's interesting there's not any
town homes in this there's a difference

451
00:35:25,44 --> 00:35:31,68
a separation of three to five feet between
single family buildings partly because

452
00:35:31,69 --> 00:35:37,47
that makes it easier to get loans and it's
also easier to get to get fire insurance

453
00:35:38,14 --> 00:35:42,37
this is the kind of the plan view of that
and the school is kind of in the upper

454
00:35:42,88 --> 00:35:46,74
left hand side of that and that brown
area that's well the development that's

455
00:35:46,78 --> 00:35:51,78
occurring right now and to pick. Around
mixed use developments you'll find other

456
00:35:51,79 --> 00:35:56,20
developments that are current So there's
townhomes there's starting to be other

457
00:35:56,21 --> 00:36:00,56
high club high quality zero lot line homes
that are being developed around this

458
00:36:00,57 --> 00:36:06,05
area as well. And another local one
this is college town I mean even

459
00:36:06,06 --> 00:36:09,50
a college town or kids have been
a college town I guess would be

460
00:36:09,51 --> 00:36:15,88
a better question college town has a
bookstore Barnes and Noble also has

461
00:36:15,89 --> 00:36:22,12
a Hilton hotel about one hundred thirty
rooms or so also has about fifty thousand

462
00:36:22,87 --> 00:36:27,48
commercial system fifty thousand square
foot of commercial space and about one

463
00:36:27,49 --> 00:36:32,49
hundred fifty four apartments so it's that
really kind of a more urbanized kind of

464
00:36:32,50 --> 00:36:37,14
a mixture of. Mixed use and this is

465
00:36:37,22 --> 00:36:41,82
a view of what that looks like
one of the things so you can do

466
00:36:41,83 --> 00:36:46,74
a lot of different types of mix use when
we were talking earlier that one of the

467
00:36:46,75 --> 00:36:51,88
most innovative mixes we've seen is
industrial and residential makes you so it's

468
00:36:52,20 --> 00:36:53,99
you can put mix uses together in

469
00:36:54,00 --> 00:36:58,56
a lot of different ways but then they
have some things in common and these are

470
00:36:58,96 --> 00:37:01,25
a number of principles that they have

471
00:37:01,26 --> 00:37:06,59
a tendency to do they focus on connectivity
pedestrian access social interaction

472
00:37:06,97 --> 00:37:12,74
green space healthy living and you know
less dependence upon automobiles more on

473
00:37:12,75 --> 00:37:17,27
getting outside walking to meeting your
neighbors so it's that kind of synergy that

474
00:37:17,28 --> 00:37:21,43
I think we were looking for as we were
starting to develop these mixed use

475
00:37:21,44 --> 00:37:22,15
districts.

476
00:37:31,09 --> 00:37:37,86
Sector singer is part of our planning
partment and works very closely with Mark

477
00:37:37,87 --> 00:37:44,27
Valentine and has been involved with the
town now for those three years that I left

478
00:37:45,10 --> 00:37:52,06
off and on Mr Costello
plus to. Write thank

479
00:37:52,07 --> 00:37:52,13
you

480
00:37:52,14 --> 00:37:56,44
a survivor Thank you Jim Thank you everyone
for coming my part tonight will be to

481
00:37:56,45 --> 00:38:02,12
discuss. What our achievements were through
this project through the education

482
00:38:02,13 --> 00:38:04,62
process that Jim was
able to provide to us as

483
00:38:04,63 --> 00:38:08,95
a consultant and what the committee was
able to accomplish through the years of

484
00:38:08,96 --> 00:38:11,66
meetings that we endured I know it took

485
00:38:11,67 --> 00:38:16,62
a long time to get here but we're very happy
to be here now. First up on the screen

486
00:38:16,63 --> 00:38:21,98
you'll see that the committee members
agreed to the parcel be chosen for the

487
00:38:21,99 --> 00:38:26,70
proposed District Area long to fifty. Took
some time but we did go through every

488
00:38:26,71 --> 00:38:33,18
parcel to make sure that it would it would
fit in that we didn't go too far east to

489
00:38:33,19 --> 00:38:39,84
far south far north just kept our
limits within what was there. We also

490
00:38:40,43 --> 00:38:44,20
know the committee also completed the next
use manual the final draft version of it

491
00:38:44,21 --> 00:38:44,79
which we mentioned

492
00:38:44,80 --> 00:38:49,23
a couple times that document is going to
talk about then the leader slides but

493
00:38:49,24 --> 00:38:50,02
that's basically

494
00:38:50,66 --> 00:38:57,12
a development tool for developers who are
trying to propose work in Penfield. And

495
00:38:57,13 --> 00:39:00,07
that documents when presented to the board
as part of this Congress as part of this

496
00:39:00,08 --> 00:39:03,83
presentation also was we've
mentioned before we have

497
00:39:03,84 --> 00:39:08,07
a draft and excuse district zoning ordinance
which is basically the law that would

498
00:39:08,08 --> 00:39:13,12
get adopted to our zoning ordinance the
official town code. And all of that is

499
00:39:13,13 --> 00:39:18,16
there it's also to important to know that
as we said the man Salt Lake study area

500
00:39:18,17 --> 00:39:23,32
was removed from this project but it. That
work that that committee accomplished

501
00:39:24,00 --> 00:39:29,48
has been preserved for future considerations
if the owners do become instant

502
00:39:29,49 --> 00:39:33,90
development or if it is sold on to the
next property owner so we're not going to

503
00:39:33,91 --> 00:39:40,87
lose that work we have it saved. That
effort to not go to waste. Here's our

504
00:39:40,88 --> 00:39:46,47
first slide of the district that we're
proposing does include the properties

505
00:39:47,30 --> 00:39:51,36
beginning just north of
Wayland around the Y.M.C.A.

506
00:39:51,37 --> 00:39:57,83
Area and extends north to the south side
of town feel sorrow. You'll notice that

507
00:39:57,84 --> 00:40:03,63
many of the parcels are included all have
fines along to fifty we did not go much

508
00:40:03,64 --> 00:40:09,66
further back beyond that to create this
district area total of fifty four parcels

509
00:40:09,67 --> 00:40:14,71
are included in. Total acres is approximately
three hundred sixty three acres.

510
00:40:17,13 --> 00:40:20,87
And we are we are close to
obviously we're close to

511
00:40:20,94 --> 00:40:25,90
a lot of tunnel land town hall where we
are tonight and it's also limited to the

512
00:40:25,91 --> 00:40:31,90
east by what's called perch we have
conservation easements over some properties to

513
00:40:31,91 --> 00:40:34,69
the east along streets corners in Dublin
Road that have purchased development

514
00:40:34,70 --> 00:40:37,02
rights on as well so again

515
00:40:37,03 --> 00:40:41,33
a sticking to the confinements of what's
out there now the natural environment

516
00:40:41,62 --> 00:40:47,100
that's why we have the blue shape before
you. Within that zone within the mixed use

517
00:40:48,01 --> 00:40:52,42
district the committee was able to create
what's called development zones these

518
00:40:52,43 --> 00:40:55,99
development zones have been
broken up into zones A B. And C.

519
00:40:56,81 --> 00:41:03,57
They are designed to
help control dictate the

520
00:41:03,58 --> 00:41:09,92
intensity of mixed use development that
would be proposed to be built there.

521
00:41:11,07 --> 00:41:16,40
Zone A there outlined in red
circles if I can get this here a

522
00:41:16,41 --> 00:41:23,03
a and moving up to intersection
Atlantic on North and South Side the

523
00:41:23,04 --> 00:41:28,11
first zone A That I pointed out was
where the is where the East Side Y.

524
00:41:28,12 --> 00:41:33,30
Is located along with what comes in
Grossman's and across the street where we now

525
00:41:33,31 --> 00:41:33,43
have

526
00:41:33,44 --> 00:41:37,33
a traffic light obviously across from the
sidewalk I am going up to Sweet's corners

527
00:41:37,84 --> 00:41:44,84
and I again up to the North Atlantic
the Zone A is designed to host that

528
00:41:45,41 --> 00:41:52,12
heavier commercial. Mixed use development
where we see our our retail offices our

529
00:41:52,13 --> 00:41:57,05
professional offices.
Apartments similar to

530
00:41:57,09 --> 00:42:01,73
a lot of the examples that you was showing
it's important to know that and later on

531
00:42:01,74 --> 00:42:08,70
I'll get into this but each zone
also has. Restrictions. For

532
00:42:08,71 --> 00:42:12,60
the intensity with that includes
the height so it's not all we saw

533
00:42:12,61 --> 00:42:19,21
a lot of examples for five stories. A lot
of what the committee looked at was wait

534
00:42:19,68 --> 00:42:23,72
excuse me weighing those options for the
building heights because we know it's it's

535
00:42:23,73 --> 00:42:30,12
a sensitive topic there. Five MI five is
has been successful in other parts of the

536
00:42:30,13 --> 00:42:36,16
country and in parts of the town and parts
of Rochester but. Zone A was actually

537
00:42:36,17 --> 00:42:41,45
limited to four. Through the committee's
work and it was step down through zones B.

538
00:42:41,46 --> 00:42:44,98
And C. After that I'll get
to that later Zone B.

539
00:42:45,87 --> 00:42:52,47
Is most of the area that has basically
the boundary of. The district

540
00:42:53,87 --> 00:42:58,07
everything outside of a. That
is designed to be more of

541
00:42:58,08 --> 00:43:05,01
a residential mixed use so offering
variety of housing types. So we

542
00:43:05,02 --> 00:43:11,20
look at. Not your typical half acre thirty
acre property you're looking at cottage

543
00:43:11,21 --> 00:43:15,53
style homes townhomes apartments again

544
00:43:15,58 --> 00:43:21,09
a variety that would be allowed in one
project site not just our typical single

545
00:43:21,10 --> 00:43:24,75
family structure. Zone C.

546
00:43:24,76 --> 00:43:28,53
Is designed to be a
transition area and zone C.

547
00:43:29,23 --> 00:43:35,62
Is right along the top. As we approach
Penfield sorrowed the zone C.

548
00:43:35,63 --> 00:43:39,64
Is a low density residential
and it's designed to give us

549
00:43:39,65 --> 00:43:44,45
a good transition going back to our
existing zoning to the north for the are

550
00:43:44,46 --> 00:43:45,12
wanting are

551
00:43:45,13 --> 00:43:52,10
a two zoning districts that are there
now. It would help. Maintain the

552
00:43:52,14 --> 00:43:57,77
view shared that current residents have
in the area so that larger buildings are

553
00:43:57,78 --> 00:44:00,93
not approaching their front
window we see the more of

554
00:44:00,94 --> 00:44:07,90
a typical single family residential
home a single A one story

555
00:44:07,91 --> 00:44:09,43
a one family home or maybe

556
00:44:09,44 --> 00:44:13,31
a duplex home but again similar in scale
to what they're used to seeing today.

557
00:44:16,03 --> 00:44:21,14
Here's an aerial view of it. Just to give
you an idea of what's out there I wish I

558
00:44:21,15 --> 00:44:22,70
had a bigger screen to show everyone

559
00:44:23,14 --> 00:44:27,59
a little more detail but it goes back to
what Jim custom was speaking about with

560
00:44:27,63 --> 00:44:34,24
the amount of vacant land that we have
along to fifty obviously the southern

561
00:44:34,25 --> 00:44:37,32
portion of this proposed
district is built out

562
00:44:37,33 --> 00:44:43,55
a little more but as you travel north it
is still vacant is farmed but is vacant

563
00:44:43,56 --> 00:44:49,68
undeveloped land that does provide an
actual opportunity for development in that

564
00:44:49,69 --> 00:44:49,79
it's

565
00:44:49,80 --> 00:44:55,09
a blank canvas We're not trying to repurpose
what's there or try to fix an old building

566
00:44:55,76 --> 00:44:58,45
that needs a ton of rehabilitation it's

567
00:44:58,46 --> 00:45:02,59
a blank slate it allows the developer
to do it right the first time.

568
00:45:07,24 --> 00:45:13,83
We want to present the current zoning also
for everyone. Current zoning out there

569
00:45:13,84 --> 00:45:14,45
is are

570
00:45:14,46 --> 00:45:19,83
a two for the most part we have one property
to the south it's in the are one and

571
00:45:19,84 --> 00:45:21,87
at the intersection of
Atlantic and to fifty we have

572
00:45:21,88 --> 00:45:28,43
a limited business area where we have the
gas station over there. Again going back

573
00:45:28,44 --> 00:45:32,11
to what our typical build out is and plan
to what we see in our current zoning

574
00:45:32,65 --> 00:45:36,88
single family residential in all of these
areas whether it be one acre or two acre

575
00:45:37,14 --> 00:45:41,80
minimum lot sizes if we keep going
at this rate it doesn't offer us

576
00:45:41,81 --> 00:45:48,19
a great deal of sustainability. An avi in
this is kind of where it starts here on

577
00:45:48,20 --> 00:45:54,41
two fifty and that's why this project has
come to be to allow more variety in the

578
00:45:54,42 --> 00:46:01,16
area. And greater diversity there for
the future time field we know that

579
00:46:01,70 --> 00:46:07,50
the West Side to fifty is pretty much is
almost built out especially with regards

580
00:46:07,51 --> 00:46:13,47
to sewer capacities and these are things
that we have to address. Through this

581
00:46:13,48 --> 00:46:17,41
project but we have to look at what's the
future going to hold and that's why this

582
00:46:17,42 --> 00:46:19,89
area has been reviewed
through this project.

583
00:46:26,67 --> 00:46:31,57
So I started to talk about the
restrictions within each zone and we have

584
00:46:31,58 --> 00:46:36,30
a on the following slide two slides are
broken up into two so everyone can read it

585
00:46:37,24 --> 00:46:37,47
is

586
00:46:37,48 --> 00:46:43,75
a development zone summary table that's
included in the mixed use manual. This gives

587
00:46:43,76 --> 00:46:45,04
you your breakdowns

588
00:46:45,05 --> 00:46:49,96
a very good summary of what would be allowed
in each zone with regards to specific

589
00:46:49,97 --> 00:46:54,55
design criteria for site plan design we
talked about the minimum number of uses

590
00:46:54,61 --> 00:46:59,45
permitted uses building heights open space
requirements parking requirements and

591
00:46:59,46 --> 00:47:06,22
whiling units setbacks building sizes and
buffering landscape buffering. You know

592
00:47:07,52 --> 00:47:11,03
other forms of buffering that could
include Trailways or just the natural

593
00:47:11,04 --> 00:47:15,04
environment that there may be ponds for
storm or infrastructure all these options

594
00:47:15,05 --> 00:47:19,72
allow us to buffer what will
be built in the district.

595
00:47:22,30 --> 00:47:27,27
So here's the first half the table the
top part. Highlights the meant minimum

596
00:47:27,31 --> 00:47:34,07
number of uses and for Zone A We
see that we've classified large

597
00:47:34,08 --> 00:47:38,16
medium and small properties based
on their acreage we gave a range

598
00:47:38,86 --> 00:47:44,26
a small property would be something that
is less than two acres and for that the

599
00:47:44,27 --> 00:47:49,83
committee was proposing has
proposed to it to use at

600
00:47:49,84 --> 00:47:55,34
a minimum for the next use requirement as
you move into the large and medium large

601
00:47:55,35 --> 00:47:57,67
being anything over thirty
eight years you need

602
00:47:57,68 --> 00:48:03,93
a minimum of four and we the committee chose
that because we know that in order for

603
00:48:03,94 --> 00:48:08,79
it to be successful there has to be right
and off sometimes too is not enough

604
00:48:09,57 --> 00:48:15,39
sometimes for is not enough. It's up to
the developer to find those right uses

605
00:48:16,79 --> 00:48:17,97
for the Boers to take

606
00:48:17,98 --> 00:48:22,76
a look at examine and make sure that
they fit what we see in the future for

607
00:48:22,77 --> 00:48:29,47
Penfield Xombi steps down
in the number of uses

608
00:48:29,48 --> 00:48:36,33
again based on acreage but again it's
more for residential. So if we're

609
00:48:36,33 --> 00:48:36,83
looking at

610
00:48:36,83 --> 00:48:42,23
a small property again two acres or less
we'd like to see two or more housing

611
00:48:42,24 --> 00:48:49,03
varieties commercial could be allowed but
it won't be as intense as the Zone A and

612
00:48:49,04 --> 00:48:54,85
again as you move up more uses more different
housing options for people. And then

613
00:48:54,86 --> 00:48:58,40
again zone C. As a buffer area that
would transition back into the are

614
00:48:58,41 --> 00:49:03,16
a two district permitted uses is included
in the zoning or the draft is owning

615
00:49:03,17 --> 00:49:09,40
ordinance. That as we capture that later
on the presentation permitted uses applies

616
00:49:09,41 --> 00:49:15,96
to all the districts all the zones I'm
sorry. Building Heights is at the bottom of

617
00:49:15,97 --> 00:49:22,68
the screen if people can't see it. Was
limited to four storeys or fifty five feet

618
00:49:23,44 --> 00:49:27,32
Xombi was limited to three
forty five feet in Zone C.

619
00:49:27,33 --> 00:49:32,47
Was limited to two stories. So again it
goes to our step back approach to make it

620
00:49:32,48 --> 00:49:38,93
seem like there aren't skyscrapers out there
that it fits the area and it's in it's

621
00:49:38,94 --> 00:49:44,21
not overwhelming to people to our existing
neighbors or people in the surrounding

622
00:49:44,22 --> 00:49:50,61
area outside the district.
We have open space parking

623
00:49:50,62 --> 00:49:55,45
requirements set backs and landscape
offers as I mentioned before all this is

624
00:49:55,46 --> 00:49:57,50
available in this
presentation and the manual.

625
00:50:02,47 --> 00:50:06,19
The development manual This was the final
one of the final products the biggest

626
00:50:06,20 --> 00:50:11,27
product of the committee is it was the
biggest task to accomplish throughout the

627
00:50:11,28 --> 00:50:16,74
process and the several several meetings
that we had to get to this point again the

628
00:50:16,75 --> 00:50:17,33
manual is

629
00:50:17,37 --> 00:50:24,02
a result of the committee's work. In the
committee every time to talk about how

630
00:50:24,03 --> 00:50:27,83
we're going to improve the manual make
it more flexible for developers so that

631
00:50:28,33 --> 00:50:34,25
again you could support support mixed use
mixed use is about giving people options

632
00:50:34,99 --> 00:50:40,10
and through flexibility with this manual
with the ordinance we hope to accomplish

633
00:50:40,11 --> 00:50:46,55
that. The manual is designed to work in
conjunction with zoning with the zoning

634
00:50:46,56 --> 00:50:50,64
ordinances proposed for the mixed use
district they often reference each other back

635
00:50:50,65 --> 00:50:56,43
and forth but again it's there to support
it with recommendations requirements

636
00:50:56,44 --> 00:51:00,12
guidelines for the zoning
ordinance and the district.

637
00:51:05,68 --> 00:51:10,06
The purpose of the manual is intended to
be used by staff board members developers

638
00:51:10,11 --> 00:51:13,04
property owners realtors everyone we did

639
00:51:13,04 --> 00:51:19,76
a lot of work to make sure that this.
This document could. Serve everyone that

640
00:51:19,77 --> 00:51:23,84
write it so everyone can be educated by it
and so they understood at the end of it

641
00:51:24,03 --> 00:51:29,98
what makes us would be and what could be
built there. It also features planning

642
00:51:29,99 --> 00:51:35,85
design standards which is. About what the
site would require for site detail site

643
00:51:35,86 --> 00:51:40,18
planning efforts engineering
ornaments things to consider as

644
00:51:40,19 --> 00:51:43,21
a developer begins the planning phases for

645
00:51:43,22 --> 00:51:50,04
a project. And this

646
00:51:50,05 --> 00:51:53,40
document is one hundred pages so I don't
expect everyone to crack it open and read

647
00:51:53,41 --> 00:51:57,98
it right away but there are important
chapters that we feel that should be

648
00:51:57,99 --> 00:52:03,59
highlighted the first being chapter three
which does an introduction to mixed use

649
00:52:03,60 --> 00:52:08,40
development what it is very similar to what
Jim Sikes was discussing in his portion

650
00:52:08,41 --> 00:52:14,48
of the presentation chapter four explains
the undertaking in an excuse and field as

651
00:52:14,49 --> 00:52:15,28
in How would

652
00:52:15,29 --> 00:52:21,69
a developer propose. An application how
they submit an application through our

653
00:52:21,70 --> 00:52:23,61
departments to the political boards for

654
00:52:23,62 --> 00:52:29,12
a review process. And again then we have
Chapter five goes and design standards for

655
00:52:29,13 --> 00:52:34,44
site design planning elements architectural
requirements. And we have the

656
00:52:34,45 --> 00:52:38,74
consideration in chapter six for the next
use development in the two fifty area

657
00:52:38,75 --> 00:52:44,96
that gets specific to group
two fifty. Appendix B.

658
00:52:45,00 --> 00:52:47,87
Gives us examples of mixed use development
similar to some of the pictures that you

659
00:52:47,88 --> 00:52:49,37
saw earlier but it does give

660
00:52:49,38 --> 00:52:55,42
a breakdown and explanation of those
developments as as you read through them again

661
00:52:55,49 --> 00:52:57,62
a resource for developers
so that they have

662
00:52:57,96 --> 00:53:01,98
a good idea of what the committee
was in visioning Appendix D.

663
00:53:01,99 --> 00:53:08,20
Gives us application forms and checklists
and appendix is the mix use district

664
00:53:08,21 --> 00:53:11,89
zoning ordinance which will be attached
in its final product currently the manual

665
00:53:11,90 --> 00:53:16,06
does not have it in there the the zoning
ordinance is its own document that would

666
00:53:16,07 --> 00:53:19,51
be in the appendix section
at the end of this project.

667
00:53:23,54 --> 00:53:28,71
Apologize in advance for the smallest
font size on this one but permitted uses.

668
00:53:30,08 --> 00:53:34,22
Within the stews district are capturing the
zoning ordinance that we wrote that was

669
00:53:34,23 --> 00:53:39,11
wrote up we have obviously many single
family multifamily residential uses

670
00:53:39,62 --> 00:53:45,26
commercial office commercial space office
space services and accessories to those.

671
00:53:48,51 --> 00:53:55,35
Retail commercial civic uses recreational
uses horizontal mixed use which is

672
00:53:55,36 --> 00:54:02,10
more of your lower and lower level single
two storey development that tends to span

673
00:54:02,11 --> 00:54:05,14
out side to side more but they are used as

674
00:54:05,15 --> 00:54:10,05
a compliment each other vertical mixed use
gives us that first floor commercial and

675
00:54:10,06 --> 00:54:16,88
second third floor residential So
building up. Other uses would include

676
00:54:16,92 --> 00:54:23,63
art galleries studios related uses
such as those far markets. And if

677
00:54:23,64 --> 00:54:28,06
something is not included in this initial
permitted use section we have specially

678
00:54:28,07 --> 00:54:33,20
permitted uses as well all of those are
subject to the board of jurisdiction to

679
00:54:33,21 --> 00:54:39,87
review to make sure that they are
acceptable uses. Other portions of the

680
00:54:39,88 --> 00:54:45,51
zoning ordinance includes how
change of use occurs so if

681
00:54:45,52 --> 00:54:49,25
a business tends to relocate and someone
wants to come in occupy the space again

682
00:54:49,26 --> 00:54:49,43
there is

683
00:54:49,44 --> 00:54:56,14
a process for that. Parking connectivity
connectivity being for anyone whether it

684
00:54:56,15 --> 00:55:01,62
be in your car to get through the site
connectivity for walking biking all types of

685
00:55:01,63 --> 00:55:07,53
mobility public open spaces lighting
landscaping signage setbacks

686
00:55:08,41 --> 00:55:12,29
architecture hours of operation all those
including your basic zoning ordinance.

687
00:55:15,30 --> 00:55:19,36
Now this I really don't expect you to
read way too small but these are strange

688
00:55:19,38 --> 00:55:25,96
shots of the application forms that. We're
put together for developers within this

689
00:55:25,97 --> 00:55:32,13
we include the van called the ten
principles of mixed use development

690
00:55:32,89 --> 00:55:34,13
those are guiding principles that

691
00:55:34,14 --> 00:55:38,84
a developer is responsible for answering
in their application while the board while

692
00:55:38,85 --> 00:55:44,63
any board jurisdiction reviews it so it
doesn't fit does have the right uses

693
00:55:45,66 --> 00:55:50,47
Does it meet the intent of what the district
and what the committee and with the

694
00:55:50,48 --> 00:55:55,58
manual have set out to do.
Two more strange shouts one

695
00:55:55,59 --> 00:55:57,36
a lot is for site plan
requirement which is

696
00:55:57,37 --> 00:56:01,24
a basic checklist for engineers to go
through all their design site plans to make

697
00:56:01,25 --> 00:56:04,99
sure complies with the district requirements
as well as architecture on the right

698
00:56:05,36 --> 00:56:09,00
as we know architecture as we saw in
many of those screenshots samples before

699
00:56:09,01 --> 00:56:09,62
architecture is

700
00:56:09,63 --> 00:56:13,45
a very critical component to make stews
to make sure that we just don't have

701
00:56:13,46 --> 00:56:17,84
a flat wall dropped on the ground we
have stuff backs approach many different

702
00:56:17,85 --> 00:56:24,69
building service materials colors lighting
different accents on the buildings all

703
00:56:24,70 --> 00:56:28,66
those things have to be considered and
accounted for during the application process

704
00:56:28,66 --> 00:56:35,59
. So outside of

705
00:56:36,05 --> 00:56:41,56
the committee's work part of this project
also requires for any reasoning we did

706
00:56:41,57 --> 00:56:46,66
a petition for support
from the landowners we had

707
00:56:46,67 --> 00:56:51,19
a petition available starting
two years ago when we had

708
00:56:51,20 --> 00:56:53,85
a. Neighbor we had

709
00:56:53,86 --> 00:56:59,57
a property owner meeting right here in
town hall that petition has been available

710
00:56:59,58 --> 00:57:06,24
since then we recently the Earlier this
year. Once we need it we realize that some

711
00:57:06,25 --> 00:57:11,14
people were still unaware of the project
we went door to door our staff went door

712
00:57:11,15 --> 00:57:15,89
to door left flyers I have one store
explaining what the project was how to get

713
00:57:15,90 --> 00:57:19,85
more information on it and it was very
successful that's the reason why we're at

714
00:57:20,13 --> 00:57:24,51
nearly an eighty percent.
Success rate with our petition.

715
00:57:27,61 --> 00:57:32,19
Thirty four of the properties have signed
of the fifty four and more importantly

716
00:57:32,95 --> 00:57:36,07
eighty percent of all the toll acreage
is accounted for through the petition

717
00:57:36,08 --> 00:57:36,72
process.

718
00:57:44,60 --> 00:57:50,45
So where do we stand now this through this
project it's come back we've presented

719
00:57:50,46 --> 00:57:56,36
this to the board we've handed off the
documents that the committee has generated

720
00:57:56,95 --> 00:57:57,59
and as

721
00:57:57,60 --> 00:58:04,03
a legal description noted for this meeting
the town more will be reviewing the

722
00:58:04,04 --> 00:58:07,34
consideration for amending the official
zoning Orenstein creating an excuse

723
00:58:07,35 --> 00:58:12,57
district to amend the official zoning map
and to accept the mixed use development

724
00:58:12,58 --> 00:58:19,29
manual. And thing next
steps will be covered by

725
00:58:19,30 --> 00:58:19,60
Mark.

726
00:58:26,27 --> 00:58:28,91
Thank you SEC So obviously we're having

727
00:58:28,92 --> 00:58:33,69
a public hearing tonight we're open here
from committee members or residents those

728
00:58:33,70 --> 00:58:38,50
living in the district around the district
so as we move forward obviously this is

729
00:58:38,51 --> 00:58:43,15
a big secret impact so we already
are working with the M.R. B.

730
00:58:43,16 --> 00:58:48,01
Group to prepare they've already submitted
a long form forward working to develop

731
00:58:48,06 --> 00:58:52,55
a generic environmental impact statement
so we have done traffic studies in the

732
00:58:52,56 --> 00:58:53,88
past we have

733
00:58:53,89 --> 00:58:58,60
a two fifty quarter study we'll look to
update those traffic studies we look at

734
00:58:58,76 --> 00:59:03,65
sewer capacity in the area storm water
is handled under New York State D.C.

735
00:59:03,66 --> 00:59:09,43
And in fees to regulations but we'll look
at what other impacts it will have to the

736
00:59:09,44 --> 00:59:11,94
area so we'll have to
go through it you know

737
00:59:11,95 --> 00:59:17,38
a scoping session get the public's input
one of those opportunities tonight and we

738
00:59:17,42 --> 00:59:18,05
did originally have

739
00:59:18,06 --> 00:59:24,72
a public information meeting. Obviously
the board take your comments this evening

740
00:59:25,04 --> 00:59:30,47
we'll continue to take comments through
emails letters whatever other avenue that

741
00:59:30,48 --> 00:59:34,31
you want to submit to the board and I
believe the board. I would expect the board

742
00:59:34,32 --> 00:59:37,72
would leave the hearing open this evening
for further comments to be submitted from

743
00:59:37,73 --> 00:59:44,51
that so. With that. We've kind of

744
00:59:44,76 --> 00:59:48,55
wrapped the presentation we have this
evening I don't know initially if the board

745
00:59:48,56 --> 00:59:55,07
has questions. And we've done some informal
discussions there were actually work

746
00:59:55,08 --> 00:59:59,09
session discussions with the board previously
this is not the first time the board

747
00:59:59,10 --> 01:00:05,72
is hearing of it. But I say that. We've
worked through the work sessions with the

748
01:00:05,73 --> 01:00:11,51
board shared what the committee came up
with and again this was staffs hopefully

749
01:00:12,25 --> 01:00:18,15
presentation of what the committee's work
was but this is the committee's work in

750
01:00:18,34 --> 01:00:23,99
hopefully we shared it with you appropriately
this evening. OK thank you very much

751
01:00:24,18 --> 01:00:30,84
Mr Valentine so the next steps as. It
indicated the board is set an opportunity to

752
01:00:30,85 --> 01:00:36,60
have some discussions about this
plan at our work sessions and so

753
01:00:36,61 --> 01:00:42,60
a purpose of the public hearing tonight is
to hear from any and all of you whether

754
01:00:42,82 --> 01:00:49,24
you have support of or or you don't have
support of concerns questions issues

755
01:00:49,79 --> 01:00:56,19
anything along those lines and so I'm going
to open it up for discussion at this

756
01:00:56,20 --> 01:01:01,45
time our travel and Town Clerk if you
signed in so before everybody rushes of the

757
01:01:01,46 --> 01:01:06,43
sign of table if you signed in we will take
you first if you did not sign and then

758
01:01:06,44 --> 01:01:11,88
we will get to you in the order that we
that you raise your hands everyone will

759
01:01:11,89 --> 01:01:18,88
have an opportunity to speak at least once
and then if once we've exhausted that if

760
01:01:18,92 --> 01:01:20,50
others would like to speak for

761
01:01:20,51 --> 01:01:25,40
a second or third time I will have an
opportunity to do that so I'm going to ask

762
01:01:25,41 --> 01:01:30,33
our clerk to please read the first person
that signed in and then from there we

763
01:01:30,34 --> 01:01:36,05
will go on to those that have an interest
in speaking OK I have just one person

764
01:01:36,06 --> 01:01:42,16
signed up Julian That's
Mark. Mark how are you.

765
01:01:43,27 --> 01:01:47,17
Thank you to realize that my handing it
to you then was making me first to speak.

766
01:01:48,24 --> 01:01:50,85
First I want to say I do
definitely applaud the concept of

767
01:01:50,86 --> 01:01:51,94
a mixed use I think that's

768
01:01:51,95 --> 01:01:57,85
a great way to go it's something I fully
fully support I do though have some

769
01:01:57,86 --> 01:02:02,93
concerns as I'm standing here certainly
my concern first concern is about the

770
01:02:02,97 --> 01:02:08,01
location I'm in this and evidently will
lead to further development pressure is

771
01:02:08,05 --> 01:02:12,65
even your your consultant alluded to on
the adjacent areas and of course the east

772
01:02:12,66 --> 01:02:14,25
side of Penfield does have

773
01:02:14,26 --> 01:02:19,12
a certain character that I'm afraid will
the decline of that character will be

774
01:02:19,13 --> 01:02:25,50
hastened by this this activity and.
Obviously this activity will also result in

775
01:02:25,51 --> 01:02:32,06
some currently. A culturally current
agricultural land being used one thing I would

776
01:02:32,07 --> 01:02:37,70
like to suggest since the I'm afraid
that the train may have already left the

777
01:02:37,71 --> 01:02:42,72
station on this project is that perhaps
it be considered to implement this in

778
01:02:42,76 --> 01:02:48,83
phases as you had the project now I think
is around three hundred sixty acres and

779
01:02:48,84 --> 01:02:54,20
as I look at that it may take decades for
that to completely fill out and the goals

780
01:02:54,21 --> 01:02:58,70
of the mixed use area really will not be
realized in the short term or even the

781
01:02:58,71 --> 01:03:05,18
first decade or so you cannot imagine
somebody walking from the. A mixed use

782
01:03:05,19 --> 01:03:11,37
activity north of. Two eighty
six down to an area down by the

783
01:03:11,38 --> 01:03:12,24
Y.M.C.A.

784
01:03:12,25 --> 01:03:16,84
Anytime soon and it's quite likely that
what will happen is you'll have spots here

785
01:03:16,85 --> 01:03:21,65
and there that emerge as the land becomes
open for development so rather I would

786
01:03:21,69 --> 01:03:24,28
propose that the board consider

787
01:03:24,48 --> 01:03:29,29
a phased area as I looked at the map
it seems like the lower A and B.

788
01:03:29,30 --> 01:03:32,71
Sections south of two
eighty six would be perhaps

789
01:03:32,72 --> 01:03:36,63
a phase one type of thing and then
as that area fills up in maybe

790
01:03:36,64 --> 01:03:43,46
a decade from now or whatever depending
upon economic and other activities then the

791
01:03:43,50 --> 01:03:48,79
remaining areas could perhaps be opened up
and the other thing I wanted to make the

792
01:03:48,80 --> 01:03:53,04
comment I wanted to make a rather
specific one. But as someone who lives

793
01:03:53,05 --> 01:03:59,06
a country block away from this activity I
am concerned about the lighting and so on

794
01:03:59,28 --> 01:04:03,72
and I notice in the document
here that the lighting will be.

795
01:04:07,28 --> 01:04:11,54
OK so as not to cause glare and so on and
so comply with the mixed use development

796
01:04:11,55 --> 01:04:17,08
manual which Zack and so on to refer to
Unfortunately neither I nor Google was

797
01:04:17,09 --> 01:04:20,75
successful in locating the mixed use
development manual on your website does

798
01:04:20,76 --> 01:04:25,67
afternoon but that may be reflection on
Google myself I'm not sure but any case I

799
01:04:25,68 --> 01:04:30,96
would like to ask that as you consider
lighting especially where you're so close to

800
01:04:30,97 --> 01:04:36,72
a rural areas that the lighting be as
dark sky stringent compliant as possible

801
01:04:37,04 --> 01:04:43,98
thank you thank you Mark.
OK who would like to

802
01:04:43,99 --> 01:04:49,65
address the board on this
matter. So staffed at such

803
01:04:49,66 --> 01:04:56,61
a great job so. First Kevin
Gallagher second OK So

804
01:04:56,83 --> 01:05:02,98
please come up. I know you guys are
good but I think he had every point

805
01:05:03,74 --> 01:05:07,01
names under seal and so I was on the
mixed use Committee says want to get

806
01:05:07,02 --> 01:05:11,78
a little more of my perspective of what I
went through and how how we really saw

807
01:05:11,79 --> 01:05:16,44
this process I think one of the great
things that we really got out of this was

808
01:05:16,45 --> 01:05:21,15
that we got a real understanding of what
really takes to develop something as

809
01:05:21,16 --> 01:05:26,19
a committee we I think we're pretty focused
on our areas in our neighborhoods and

810
01:05:26,20 --> 01:05:29,92
really saying this is what we want to
see this is what we don't want to see

811
01:05:30,12 --> 01:05:31,00
realizing that this is

812
01:05:31,01 --> 01:05:35,26
a process that's going to take ten fifteen
years but we have to start now because

813
01:05:35,27 --> 01:05:39,03
if you don't start now then you know those
blocks are restart put in place as land

814
01:05:39,04 --> 01:05:42,34
gets developed around there it
was great is that it really was

815
01:05:42,35 --> 01:05:47,41
a resident centered you know project I
remember several times being told at the

816
01:05:47,42 --> 01:05:51,13
meetings you know this is your project you
know the town is not going to dictate

817
01:05:51,14 --> 01:05:55,61
what happens here and it really came across
that way and I think the residents that

818
01:05:55,62 --> 01:06:00,48
run this committee really really took that
to heart because every concern we had

819
01:06:00,49 --> 01:06:04,35
was really addressed for one example we
actually got far enough through the process

820
01:06:04,36 --> 01:06:06,92
where. There was a
developer that brought in

821
01:06:07,12 --> 01:06:12,24
a actual proposal and the board actually
got to see or actually the resident

822
01:06:12,25 --> 01:06:15,84
committee got to see it and we got to hear
about it and then we turned around and

823
01:06:16,11 --> 01:06:19,13
we really got to reflect on that saying
you know this isn't quite what we want to

824
01:06:19,14 --> 01:06:23,42
see but how do we relate this document so
then the developers realize this is what

825
01:06:23,43 --> 01:06:25,07
we want to see and it was really

826
01:06:25,11 --> 01:06:29,89
a lot of the tool that documents say these
are the actual specifics that maybe

827
01:06:29,90 --> 01:06:33,57
a developer didn't quite see our vision and
we really wanted to outline the in that

828
01:06:33,58 --> 01:06:34,63
manual and I think it really made

829
01:06:34,64 --> 01:06:38,18
a big difference that this manual when you
go through the criterion there's pages

830
01:06:38,19 --> 01:06:41,65
of criteria saying you know this is how
many stories this is if it's this close to

831
01:06:41,66 --> 01:06:45,55
a row this is how far back it has to be and
it really got pretty detailed when you

832
01:06:45,56 --> 01:06:49,56
look at it and it helped us shape
how we're going to scribe that to

833
01:06:49,60 --> 01:06:53,32
a developer or anyone looking at the land
saying what do we want to do here and you

834
01:06:53,33 --> 01:06:56,41
know I felt really comfortable
leaving that saying that this was

835
01:06:56,42 --> 01:07:01,34
a document that the group really decided
upon and you know as residents of our

836
01:07:01,35 --> 01:07:04,81
community this is what we want to see this
is what we didn't want to see and it was

837
01:07:04,82 --> 01:07:09,45
really I felt good about it and you know
that by just staying up here and say that

838
01:07:09,46 --> 01:07:14,37
that was something that I think everyone
in the committee really after of you know

839
01:07:14,38 --> 01:07:18,07
I think this was two years three years
this committee has been going to it's been

840
01:07:18,08 --> 01:07:21,29
a long process and initially
we started in this and I think

841
01:07:21,30 --> 01:07:25,03
a lot of us didn't really understand what
it takes to develop zoning allow us to

842
01:07:25,04 --> 01:07:28,18
understand the zoning didn't understand
the terminologies and it took

843
01:07:28,19 --> 01:07:32,63
a couple months and then with Jim's you
know actual consulting coming in and

844
01:07:32,64 --> 01:07:36,06
explaining what happens when you say this
or when you refer to something as this it

845
01:07:36,07 --> 01:07:38,70
really helped us understand
that and I think that was

846
01:07:38,71 --> 01:07:44,41
a really good process and see if any other
notes that I want to say. Not really I

847
01:07:44,42 --> 01:07:46,81
mean I just I want to say
that that was really

848
01:07:47,01 --> 01:07:51,06
a resident driven project and I feel
really comfortable if anyone ever has

849
01:07:51,07 --> 01:07:55,32
questions feel free look me up I can give
you my contact information if you bring

850
01:07:55,33 --> 01:07:57,66
questions I can feel free
to answer anything kind of

851
01:07:57,67 --> 01:08:01,86
a sometimes in layman's terms even when
you hear his presentations I don't really

852
01:08:01,87 --> 01:08:05,73
understand what uses mean or those kind of
things but I'd be happy translating for

853
01:08:05,74 --> 01:08:11,37
anybody thank you and I will draw your
attention that certainly if you go to

854
01:08:11,72 --> 01:08:17,68
Penfield dot org You can wind your way
through that Mark if you grab that wink

855
01:08:18,19 --> 01:08:21,44
right there to the mountain
mix use district you'll hit

856
01:08:21,78 --> 01:08:27,24
a home run when you click on that So Mark
would make that to Louise your if you

857
01:08:27,25 --> 01:08:27,73
want to go in

858
01:08:27,74 --> 01:08:40,68
a little bit more detail
so Mr Gallagher. Kevin

859
01:08:40,69 --> 01:08:43,82
Gallagher nine hundred seventy three
Dublin Road and I wish there was

860
01:08:43,83 --> 01:08:49,67
a big map that I could point to and so the
only ones are available or there I had

861
01:08:49,68 --> 01:08:55,43
some prepared statements but I'm going to
start with those but I have some comments

862
01:08:55,44 --> 01:09:01,92
based on the presentation here. First
of all I believe the mixed use

863
01:09:01,93 --> 01:09:07,66
manual should be in place before any
considerations for the zones be be

864
01:09:08,58 --> 01:09:15,41
voted on that we're not even sure exactly
what the the rules will be because

865
01:09:15,42 --> 01:09:20,25
they're not in place yet mean the mixed
use or not so yes the manual makes use

866
01:09:20,26 --> 01:09:26,22
ordinance OK yes we have the manual but
it it has to look into the mix use or not

867
01:09:26,23 --> 01:09:31,55
it's there would that would codify
the manual rort the ordinance.

868
01:09:35,01 --> 01:09:37,43
That will be helpful but
it may not be big enough.

869
01:09:44,01 --> 01:09:50,10
Because the information provided we
found out that this wasn't driven by

870
01:09:50,73 --> 01:09:56,39
property owners in the area this was
driven by the town asking property donors

871
01:09:56,40 --> 01:10:03,16
within the area do you want to participate
in this mixed use plan so I took the

872
01:10:03,17 --> 01:10:10,10
time to look at the the.
Final tax records for

873
01:10:10,24 --> 01:10:15,38
two thousand and fifteen to look at who
own property and resided within the area

874
01:10:15,71 --> 01:10:18,13
and who didn't and it may just be

875
01:10:18,14 --> 01:10:23,31
a coincidence but the number thirty four
was brought up and mentioned thirty four

876
01:10:23,78 --> 01:10:29,60
property owners were in agreement to this
area and is it turns out thirty four of

877
01:10:29,61 --> 01:10:34,91
the properties are own. By people who
are not residents so that concerns me.

878
01:10:39,96 --> 01:10:44,40
Well I have I haven't read the entire manual
I've scanned it there is potential for

879
01:10:44,41 --> 01:10:49,59
a complex compact Hamlet setting that would
be beneficial to residents within and

880
01:10:49,60 --> 01:10:54,07
around the area there are some problems
though the possibility of light and dust

881
01:10:54,08 --> 01:10:59,89
rule is not all bad but it does open the
door to some non-compatible activities I

882
01:10:59,90 --> 01:11:04,21
believe there needs to be some restrictions
especially related to health and safety

883
01:11:04,47 --> 01:11:11,14
such as chemical use and Noyce the plan
still seems to be road centered every

884
01:11:11,15 --> 01:11:16,62
example that they've shown looked like an
intersection now we have an intersection

885
01:11:16,63 --> 01:11:21,73
there is Route two fifty and two eighty
six but the idea of pedestrian friendly

886
01:11:22,16 --> 01:11:29,08
isn't Southern around high traffic
high speed roads. There don't seem

887
01:11:29,09 --> 01:11:35,70
to be any examples of good. Good
mixed used areas within our

888
01:11:35,71 --> 01:11:42,38
region the idea of the
college town is an urban

889
01:11:42,39 --> 01:11:44,95
example rather than
something that would fit

890
01:11:44,99 --> 01:11:51,35
a residential area. I can envision
or I can envision and accept

891
01:11:51,48 --> 01:11:56,28
a well planned community setting as setting
based on pedestrian traffic where you

892
01:11:56,29 --> 01:12:02,99
can live work walk and relax it could
include places for gardens green spaces for

893
01:12:03,00 --> 01:12:09,22
private and public use there
are examples of. Templates for

894
01:12:09,23 --> 01:12:15,40
consideration and this may sound strange
at first but an aircraft carrier which has

895
01:12:15,41 --> 01:12:16,69
a specific purpose

896
01:12:16,85 --> 01:12:22,31
a workplace there are living spaces there
are support active these such as food

897
01:12:22,60 --> 01:12:29,40
health care recreation except. Another
example could be an island. Islands

898
01:12:29,44 --> 01:12:35,14
normally have an end organic evolution of
their living and working spaces. A few

899
01:12:35,15 --> 01:12:40,04
people they are living there they need
things they have community support food

900
01:12:40,10 --> 01:12:46,16
shelter health care maybe tourism but
mostly they are self-sufficient there are

901
01:12:46,17 --> 01:12:51,01
examples of nice Hamlets in Europe and
Asia where there are complimentary and

902
01:12:51,02 --> 01:12:55,74
mutually supporting buildings and shared
spaces which make close knit communities

903
01:12:56,72 --> 01:13:01,93
as Spain colonized the Americas they
had rules for towns and city plans and

904
01:13:01,94 --> 01:13:08,83
construction however I would prefer plants
such as by Frederick Law Olmsted which

905
01:13:08,84 --> 01:13:15,83
are vital living communities built
within natural setting. The problem here

906
01:13:16,17 --> 01:13:17,78
is I believe there needs to be

907
01:13:17,79 --> 01:13:24,47
a master plan in place before any building
is constructed the idea of multiple

908
01:13:24,48 --> 01:13:28,56
developers working separately on
different properties does not lead to an

909
01:13:28,57 --> 01:13:33,97
acceptable outcome I believe the result
result would be a hodgepodge and

910
01:13:33,98 --> 01:13:40,23
a blight. And the other thing is the home
ownership. There was discussion about

911
01:13:40,27 --> 01:13:47,10
providing. Housing that
was fordable to less

912
01:13:47,26 --> 01:13:53,67
fluent individuals but the idea
of renting and apartments seems

913
01:13:53,69 --> 01:13:58,67
contrary to that goal we want people to
be able to live here afford to live here

914
01:13:58,67 --> 01:14:04,08
but we also want them to have ownership
in our property in our community.

915
01:14:06,45 --> 01:14:11,31
Now I'm still concerned in protecting open
space specifically around Dublin's and

916
01:14:11,31 --> 01:14:18,24
Suites corner roads so that includes
the view sheds. In the projected area.

917
01:14:20,91 --> 01:14:27,80
This is the protected area open space the
view sheds are mentioned in the contract

918
01:14:28,29 --> 01:14:33,58
the view sheds are mentioned in the
comprehensive plan and the open space plan

919
01:14:34,06 --> 01:14:40,90
however the view from those open spaces
includes most of the southern area

920
01:14:41,94 --> 01:14:48,72
which includes fields here. Some small
forest area here and hedge lines

921
01:14:48,88 --> 01:14:55,81
over that the hilltop here so all this
proposed development will be within the

922
01:14:55,82 --> 01:15:02,59
view. We want chosen area and
what they've said is four storey

923
01:15:02,60 --> 01:15:09,53
buildings which does not seem we just
built in this area. In fact it seems

924
01:15:09,54 --> 01:15:16,27
to be that is the area with the highest.
Number of stories for their development

925
01:15:17,10 --> 01:15:23,12
now this seems in the exact
opposite of what the

926
01:15:23,91 --> 01:15:30,57
comprehensive plan and the open space
plan mentioned prior to this development

927
01:15:30,58 --> 01:15:37,41
study so it seems as though this
development idea is in complete

928
01:15:37,42 --> 01:15:43,99
contrast to our Open Space Vision.
Now as I mentioned before.

929
01:15:45,55 --> 01:15:45,90
They have

930
01:15:45,91 --> 01:15:52,81
a majority of the land orders which
have signed on to this proposal but.

931
01:15:54,14 --> 01:15:59,04
As it turns out seventy five percent of the
property is owned by people who are out

932
01:15:59,05 --> 01:16:05,88
of town. The point is is this area going
to be considered in favor of the interests

933
01:16:05,89 --> 01:16:11,54
of non residents or is it going to be
considered for the best interests of

934
01:16:11,55 --> 01:16:17,98
residents. Now the other thing is the
properties already have set zoning the

935
01:16:17,99 --> 01:16:22,78
properties owners know that when they they
bought the property and there should be

936
01:16:22,90 --> 01:16:29,81
no it's expectation that the property owners
especially from out of town can expect

937
01:16:29,81 --> 01:16:33,81
. Increase in value because
it changes over to

938
01:16:34,08 --> 01:16:40,94
a commercial use. The other issue I

939
01:16:40,95 --> 01:16:46,52
mentioned before is the the intersection
of Route two fifty into eighty six it cuts

940
01:16:47,02 --> 01:16:52,57
the entire area twice so it's
four areas how do you have

941
01:16:52,58 --> 01:16:55,82
a pedestrian friendly area
when you have to cross such

942
01:16:55,83 --> 01:17:01,93
a busy road and I see no provisions no
ideas about connecting those areas whether

943
01:17:01,94 --> 01:17:06,76
it's slowing the traffic down
putting in pedestrian bit bridges.

944
01:17:08,68 --> 01:17:14,57
Boulevards anything like that and all those
things because those are state routes

945
01:17:15,01 --> 01:17:21,02
they would have to approve those things
so their intention may be fast transit

946
01:17:21,23 --> 01:17:26,89
travel transportation which may be in
conflict of our pedestrian friendly ideas.

947
01:17:29,11 --> 01:17:35,94
So I was going to say that I
was tentatively. Disapproval

948
01:17:36,44 --> 01:17:42,91
with ideas about how it could be improved
to make where I would approve it but.

949
01:17:43,77 --> 01:17:50,19
This idea seems so off base so
contrary to the character of

950
01:17:50,20 --> 01:17:53,54
Penfield that I am
absolutely opposed to it.

951
01:17:57,02 --> 01:18:03,76
It it appears as though some people have
looked at the proposal and not seen the

952
01:18:03,77 --> 01:18:09,46
character of the town of Penfield and
maybe I see things differently I see the

953
01:18:09,47 --> 01:18:15,57
views from Dublin hill I can see the
tree lines I've I've been able to

954
01:18:16,19 --> 01:18:23,18
tell what can be seen from each will
cation but four stories would block the

955
01:18:23,19 --> 01:18:30,04
view for. Right now the view is
eight miles away to the city

956
01:18:30,05 --> 01:18:36,58
Rochester and we would lose that view. One
other consideration I have friends that

957
01:18:36,59 --> 01:18:43,25
are on California they we've lived any
fairly dense suburban community but their

958
01:18:43,26 --> 01:18:49,49
houses are in the valleys and when you
walk to the hilltops you can't see any.

959
01:18:50,65 --> 01:18:55,31
Other houses all you see are tree
lined hill tops and they have

960
01:18:55,35 --> 01:19:00,10
a vibrant community there they have
their mixed use centers but they don't

961
01:19:00,11 --> 01:19:05,79
sacrifice the natural beauty the the
positive qualities of the community for that

962
01:19:06,32 --> 01:19:12,93
so I don't believe that the project proposed
under the current conditions within

963
01:19:12,94 --> 01:19:19,67
their zones fits our community so I am
opposed to it OK thank you thank you.

964
01:19:26,60 --> 01:19:32,95
OK others that would like to speak. Yes.

965
01:19:45,21 --> 01:19:46,91
Good evening my name is
Kevin Fitzpatrick I have

966
01:19:46,92 --> 01:19:50,56
a pen field resident but I also work
at the Eastside community Y.M.C.A.

967
01:19:50,56 --> 01:19:55,89
. Two fifty I'm also part of the it was
part of the steering committee and I think

968
01:19:55,90 --> 01:20:00,41
some of the issues that the gentleman I was
Mark just brought up were addressed in

969
01:20:00,42 --> 01:20:04,89
that committee so if you look if you really
look into the manual and look deep it

970
01:20:04,90 --> 01:20:09,70
talks about walkability it talks about
getting traffic off of to fifty off of

971
01:20:09,71 --> 01:20:14,44
a clan and how do you really create that
synergy in those communities so when you

972
01:20:14,45 --> 01:20:18,22
talk about how much recreational space
they need how much open space I think it's

973
01:20:18,23 --> 01:20:24,12
all in their use have to delve really deep
so I think in the process. I think it

974
01:20:24,13 --> 01:20:28,11
was three years actually that we went through
this so all different things came up

975
01:20:28,15 --> 01:20:32,69
as we talked about the heights what should
go together how do we compliment it we

976
01:20:32,70 --> 01:20:34,26
also talked about is can it be

977
01:20:34,27 --> 01:20:40,97
a hodgepodge but again when the team from
the staff and Jim came and said if we

978
01:20:40,98 --> 01:20:46,31
put this things together everything should
line up so when you look at what exact

979
01:20:46,32 --> 01:20:50,87
talked about all of the different requirements
they do line up together it is going

980
01:20:50,88 --> 01:20:51,02
to be

981
01:20:51,03 --> 01:20:54,61
a challenge to put that together so the
planning board and the zoning board will

982
01:20:54,62 --> 01:20:56,60
have to look at that but there is

983
01:20:56,61 --> 01:21:01,38
a road map to put that together in that in
that plan that that took three years to

984
01:21:01,39 --> 01:21:05,63
sort of put together I think the other
thing that I would say is you look back at

985
01:21:05,73 --> 01:21:11,87
where Penn field was ten years ago and where
it is now experience with the Y.M.C.A.

986
01:21:11,88 --> 01:21:14,41
There really wasn't a plan
so this sort of gives

987
01:21:14,42 --> 01:21:17,35
a direction as to how
does this area which is

988
01:21:17,36 --> 01:21:21,86
a growth area really be developed in there
and I think when you put that three

989
01:21:21,87 --> 01:21:23,79
areas together a B. And C.

990
01:21:23,99 --> 01:21:24,52
It creates

991
01:21:24,53 --> 01:21:29,93
a real cohesive area into fifty we've
worked on the stoplight to slow the traffic

992
01:21:29,94 --> 01:21:35,38
down how to get traffic in foot traffic
one place to another I think the town is

993
01:21:35,39 --> 01:21:35,65
making

994
01:21:35,66 --> 01:21:39,99
a lot of progress as they put that together
and again from experience when we talk

995
01:21:40,00 --> 01:21:45,46
about travel when we've done some projects
at the Y. . The Planning Board A.J.

996
01:21:45,47 --> 01:21:48,73
And his group has made sure that there is
connected building they have asked for an

997
01:21:48,74 --> 01:21:54,16
easement so things can be put together in
the future might not be next year or the

998
01:21:54,17 --> 01:21:58,68
year after but ten years from now there are
plans to put all of that together so as

999
01:21:58,69 --> 01:21:59,84
a committee member and as

1000
01:21:59,85 --> 01:22:03,50
a resident Penfield I would I would
support this plan thank you thank you.

1001
01:22:07,33 --> 01:22:07,71
Yes sir.

1002
01:22:19,81 --> 01:22:24,80
I live at thirty three thirty Atlantic
Avenue and my property the north end of my

1003
01:22:24,81 --> 01:22:28,71
property will abut up to
one of the section B.

1004
01:22:28,83 --> 01:22:34,95
Which is the. Northeast corner of the
intersection of Atlantic in two fifty

1005
01:22:35,74 --> 01:22:42,33
My concern is one thing I do kind of like
the concept of the idea and where I am it

1006
01:22:42,34 --> 01:22:47,64
looks like the level of the building is
going to be three stories high I do have

1007
01:22:47,65 --> 01:22:52,24
tree lines in my backyard so I should not
be able to see the buildings but I'm

1008
01:22:52,25 --> 01:22:56,82
concerned the rear side of the
buildings if you've got offices in

1009
01:22:57,49 --> 01:23:02,82
a semi commercial area there's going to be
trucks in there deliveries and so forth

1010
01:23:03,44 --> 01:23:07,33
you know is this going to be night time
delivery is going to be noise and is

1011
01:23:07,34 --> 01:23:11,69
a lighting going to be you know low level
lighting where it's going to be something

1012
01:23:11,70 --> 01:23:18,60
like Wakeman's. I don't know forty
forty foot tall tower type things that

1013
01:23:18,61 --> 01:23:24,93
would you know impact my live ability
there another concern I have also is what

1014
01:23:24,94 --> 01:23:30,53
would it do to my property value since I
would not have walkability to this this

1015
01:23:30,54 --> 01:23:34,77
area you know I'd have to you know
there's no sidewalks on Atlantic Avenue.

1016
01:23:35,83 --> 01:23:40,40
Theoretically have to walk down Atlantic
Avenue and then walk north onto fifty to

1017
01:23:40,41 --> 01:23:45,86
get to this proposed area. So you know
what would it do the property values for

1018
01:23:45,87 --> 01:23:52,46
adjacent properties that aren't you
know accessible to these areas and

1019
01:23:52,75 --> 01:23:59,67
those are some concerns thank you
thank you for coming in. Others.

1020
01:24:04,05 --> 01:24:10,22
Yes if you please come forward and we
just have someone sign up to speak OK So

1021
01:24:10,70 --> 01:24:13,39
after this gentleman
then you will be next.

1022
01:24:17,89 --> 01:24:24,48
Getting me. From my sixty four
point zero. Right now so I

1023
01:24:24,49 --> 01:24:25,98
support the project I think there's

1024
01:24:25,99 --> 01:24:31,18
a lot of works got into it and it's moving
your attraction and. You've got to think

1025
01:24:31,19 --> 01:24:35,07
forward a little bit because you know
change is a commie and it lays down

1026
01:24:35,08 --> 01:24:41,36
a reasonable foot foundation for the future
and oh my neighbor Dan Heath I don't

1027
01:24:41,37 --> 01:24:45,49
think he's here tonight for some health
reasons but I know he supports it as well

1028
01:24:45,66 --> 01:24:52,47
at the Penn field service center. So it's
kind of prevent him from be here but just

1029
01:24:52,48 --> 01:24:58,16
looking up from. This program's generally
geared towards the vacant land rule

1030
01:24:58,17 --> 01:25:00,98
properties if you're

1031
01:25:01,20 --> 01:25:05,71
a business in the area am or you're
resident in the area but I guess maybe

1032
01:25:05,72 --> 01:25:06,22
a little more from

1033
01:25:06,23 --> 01:25:10,82
a business standpoint. You know at the
dentist office there if I want to enhance

1034
01:25:10,83 --> 01:25:15,79
the property which I want to
do you know if I need to add

1035
01:25:15,80 --> 01:25:20,49
a small addition for Apatow Henri I want
to you know improve the entrance I don't

1036
01:25:20,50 --> 01:25:25,14
think the quoting directly relates to
these type of changes for an existing

1037
01:25:25,15 --> 01:25:30,58
structure I would say so maybe some means
of just recognizing that fact and that

1038
01:25:30,59 --> 01:25:34,83
there will be some variance to the
code for existing properties that are

1039
01:25:34,84 --> 01:25:39,78
a relatively small property you never pay
less than half an acre point four acres

1040
01:25:39,79 --> 01:25:44,81
some around in there. And then. You know
I want to improve it blend in with the

1041
01:25:44,91 --> 01:25:50,34
with the area statically and physically
make the building more attractive as one of

1042
01:25:50,35 --> 01:25:55,43
the community but it may not fit perfectly
into the standards that are available

1043
01:25:55,44 --> 01:25:57,50
for the same thing for
Dan you know if he wants

1044
01:25:57,51 --> 01:26:00,89
a beta his grudge or he wants to expand

1045
01:26:00,90 --> 01:26:04,79
a service center Well is it really going
to fit into the form of what we're doing

1046
01:26:04,80 --> 01:26:09,13
for larger projects we're talking about
multiple acres surprise some some form of

1047
01:26:09,14 --> 01:26:14,61
accommodation and acknowledgement of these
variations on the theme. That's all

1048
01:26:15,49 --> 01:26:21,99
right thank you could you spell your last
name please W G U T H Thank you thank.

1049
01:26:27,47 --> 01:26:32,82
Welcome thank you good evening my name is
Kerry Ivers I reside in fifteen pensioner

1050
01:26:32,83 --> 01:26:38,52
circle can feel York I actually live in
an area of town that is thirty years ago

1051
01:26:38,53 --> 01:26:42,42
was becoming a new and
mixed use version of

1052
01:26:42,43 --> 01:26:48,73
a suburban development will pond with
apartments and townhouses and the commercial

1053
01:26:48,74 --> 01:26:54,76
quarter very close by very compact development
and I love where I am and I think

1054
01:26:54,77 --> 01:26:59,46
that the mixed use assuming that's being
proposed is phenomenal and it shows

1055
01:27:00,42 --> 01:27:07,18
a progressive look to the future it's
fiscally. Responsible in terms of

1056
01:27:07,46 --> 01:27:12,00
concentrating investment in infrastructure
and the maintenance in long term mean

1057
01:27:12,01 --> 01:27:17,80
and so it goes with that I think it helps.
Control or at least minimize the impact

1058
01:27:17,81 --> 01:27:23,73
of sprawl and I think more importantly
it's addressing and market need now in the

1059
01:27:23,74 --> 01:27:30,60
future. For all types of living
arrangements and styles and people want to

1060
01:27:30,65 --> 01:27:35,68
be in places that are walkable
and you can do and be in

1061
01:27:35,69 --> 01:27:37,15
a lot of different places an issue in

1062
01:27:37,16 --> 01:27:41,73
a very compact setting and I think we
see that in our villages that are very

1063
01:27:41,74 --> 01:27:46,43
successful. And we see that in redevelopment
and other towns that are trying to

1064
01:27:46,65 --> 01:27:52,24
create this retroactively. You know and
it's harder to do after the fact so I think

1065
01:27:52,25 --> 01:27:57,13
the fact that we are looking forward and
trying to create this environment now and

1066
01:27:57,14 --> 01:28:03,84
then the future is going to really continue
to set Penfield ahead as an example

1067
01:28:03,85 --> 01:28:10,52
of great development and for thinking so I
support the proposal and hope the board

1068
01:28:10,80 --> 01:28:17,03
does the same Thank you thank
you. Other first time speakers.

1069
01:28:21,39 --> 01:28:28,38
Yes sir please. Thank you my name is
David Dixon and I live in Fairport

1070
01:28:28,53 --> 01:28:34,95
my father and mother in law were Howard
and Marty Frank. And I have two quick

1071
01:28:35,17 --> 01:28:39,26
questions primarily one
has to do with taxes.

1072
01:28:41,83 --> 01:28:48,34
Making these changes are you then automatically
creating. An increased tax burden

1073
01:28:48,35 --> 01:28:55,35
for all the property owners within
these proposed zones. So the

1074
01:28:55,39 --> 01:29:01,23
tax issue which relates to an assessment
issue you know is something that's very

1075
01:29:01,61 --> 01:29:06,85
individual to each parcel if you think
about it vacant land versus single family

1076
01:29:06,86 --> 01:29:09,12
versus a business so if there's

1077
01:29:09,13 --> 01:29:14,62
a single family so what I would what I would
say so I'm going to answer is this is

1078
01:29:14,63 --> 01:29:21,19
that I I'm not an assessor and nor do I
try to play one during the day either.

1079
01:29:22,44 --> 01:29:29,38
I would encourage and I've had this
conversation with our assessment. With our

1080
01:29:29,39 --> 01:29:31,89
assessor in the assessment
Department you know if there is

1081
01:29:31,90 --> 01:29:37,89
a specific piece of property. She will
be and her staff will be happy get to

1082
01:29:37,90 --> 01:29:44,43
specifically speak to your property because
again just the dynamics of vacant land

1083
01:29:44,44 --> 01:29:49,98
versus structures commercial residential
You know I just want to make sure that I'm

1084
01:29:49,99 --> 01:29:54,45
not saying that this is or isn't going
to happen and find out that I'm running

1085
01:29:54,46 --> 01:30:01,01
counter to state law. That's the specific
question is with regard to all the

1086
01:30:01,02 --> 01:30:07,21
properties within the zones. Is it
the intent of the board to have

1087
01:30:07,22 --> 01:30:13,99
a reassessment of each and every property
regardless of its current use we take

1088
01:30:14,00 --> 01:30:19,05
a look at all of our properties on an annual
basis and ways that I understand what

1089
01:30:19,06 --> 01:30:23,50
you're saying it's not an answer well
then you're not going to be happy with my

1090
01:30:23,51 --> 01:30:27,05
answer tonight because what I'm going
to say is if you would like to speak to

1091
01:30:27,21 --> 01:30:32,17
a particular piece of property. What I
meant encourage you to do is to have

1092
01:30:32,18 --> 01:30:37,34
a conversation with our assessor in our
sensors office OK then the second part of

1093
01:30:37,35 --> 01:30:43,73
that sure is has the assessor has there
been. Any tax consideration at all in all

1094
01:30:43,74 --> 01:30:50,71
of the ten years that this project has been
underway I think it's safe to say that

1095
01:30:50,92 --> 01:30:57,91
whatever it is currently zoned and what
it has been assessed as as I said the

1096
01:30:57,92 --> 01:31:03,42
assessor's office will review properties
on an annual basis and sections of town on

1097
01:31:03,43 --> 01:31:09,44
an annual basis. Has that been changed up
or down or properties there operate out

1098
01:31:09,64 --> 01:31:13,97
like I can't answer that question tonight
so you you you don't know whether it's

1099
01:31:13,98 --> 01:31:19,62
even been discussed Well I know that
the assessor's office looks at all the

1100
01:31:19,63 --> 01:31:25,22
properties but I can't sit here and tell
you your property was their property was

1101
01:31:25,23 --> 01:31:27,26
not I can tell you that it's reviewed on

1102
01:31:27,27 --> 01:31:33,89
a annual basis I'm not talking about my
property I'm talking about. Everybody's

1103
01:31:33,90 --> 01:31:38,57
property and again again what I want to say
is that the assessor reviews all of the

1104
01:31:38,58 --> 01:31:44,80
properties on any annual basis is the
assessor aware of abs absolutely OK

1105
01:31:45,36 --> 01:31:51,62
Second question is. The examples
that the consultant has provided

1106
01:31:52,70 --> 01:31:57,23
in a lot of those examples
there's been a what I say

1107
01:31:57,30 --> 01:32:01,75
a community commitment I.E.

1108
01:32:01,82 --> 01:32:08,08
Libraries town halls schools
whatever I don't see any town

1109
01:32:08,51 --> 01:32:14,64
commitment in any of this there's no
library proposal here there's no school

1110
01:32:14,65 --> 01:32:21,19
proposed There's nothing that's
here. And typically in multi

1111
01:32:21,20 --> 01:32:27,53
use special zone requirements
there is a community

1112
01:32:27,92 --> 01:32:27,92
a

1113
01:32:27,93 --> 01:32:35,32
a governmental commitment to saying we
are going to be part of the development

1114
01:32:35,89 --> 01:32:40,37
I don't see any of that here at all you're
looking for somebody else to do the work

1115
01:32:40,38 --> 01:32:47,17
for you you're not committed to
anything here it is it is at this

1116
01:32:47,18 --> 01:32:53,34
point the town does not have any commitments
to move any facility in there at this

1117
01:32:53,35 --> 01:32:57,61
time that is correct OK Thank you that's
what I wanted to know thanks David thank

1118
01:32:57,62 --> 01:32:59,85
you yes sir Bob.

1119
01:33:08,96 --> 01:33:12,91
My name is Bob wing I live at thirty three
zero nine Allana Kevin two and Howard

1120
01:33:12,92 --> 01:33:17,92
barber my in-laws as well. In answer to
your comment about calling the assessor's

1121
01:33:17,93 --> 01:33:22,01
office I called them today I talked to
the assessor and she claims she has no

1122
01:33:22,02 --> 01:33:26,88
knowledge about any of these any of this
that's going on and that she couldn't give

1123
01:33:26,89 --> 01:33:32,31
me any assistance when I asked her about
specific properties aioe. We know about

1124
01:33:32,77 --> 01:33:39,00
you about your specific property so yes
OK so I'll take exception to that only

1125
01:33:39,01 --> 01:33:45,71
because I know that she is aware of the
study group because it's been going on she

1126
01:33:45,72 --> 01:33:50,18
resides in this building if

1127
01:33:50,19 --> 01:33:56,32
a call you and I and the assessor will sit
down all right that fact I will do them

1128
01:33:56,33 --> 01:34:01,48
yes that's the that's the best I can offer
that's of us I can offer but I'll also

1129
01:34:01,49 --> 01:34:05,90
say that that anyone whether it's myself
or anyone in the audience that owns

1130
01:34:05,91 --> 01:34:10,96
property in the town if you have any
questions about the assessment or your

1131
01:34:10,97 --> 01:34:15,72
property or or what have you that
office is there and available for that

1132
01:34:15,73 --> 01:34:18,59
information all right
so if you would give me

1133
01:34:18,60 --> 01:34:24,21
a call. Up an appointment for the three
of us to sit down one just one other

1134
01:34:24,22 --> 01:34:28,40
general absolutely it's interesting that
the specialist shows up and he says that

1135
01:34:28,41 --> 01:34:32,05
this is the first time he's ever been here
when there wasn't snow and then he shows

1136
01:34:32,06 --> 01:34:37,90
a bunch of examples of. Projects south
of the Mason Dixon line where they have

1137
01:34:37,91 --> 01:34:43,64
a significantly different climate than we
have here and in talks about walkability

1138
01:34:43,65 --> 01:34:48,63
and in Rochester come and compares it
to they have their it seems you know

1139
01:34:48,64 --> 01:34:53,61
a little bit you know apples and
oranges got it right thanks Bob.

1140
01:34:56,77 --> 01:35:03,34
Other. Other questions other
comments first time speakers.

1141
01:35:05,08 --> 01:35:10,31
Second time speakers. Second
time speakers Mr Gallagher.

1142
01:35:20,62 --> 01:35:21,67
I'd just like to add

1143
01:35:21,68 --> 01:35:26,78
a little bit of information to the properties
at the corner of suites corner and

1144
01:35:26,79 --> 01:35:33,50
two fifty. They are right
here. They were previously

1145
01:35:33,51 --> 01:35:40,05
considered for open space properties and
they are still listed in two thousand and

1146
01:35:40,06 --> 01:35:43,14
six open space plan and there is

1147
01:35:43,15 --> 01:35:49,12
a stipulation that they should be protected
with regards to the view scapes and

1148
01:35:49,32 --> 01:35:54,88
they went from being considered for
open space to now being considered for.

1149
01:35:55,100 --> 01:36:02,75
Mixed development. And the other thing
is that I see a lot of people here in

1150
01:36:02,92 --> 01:36:07,40
a lot of people speaking and I want to make
sure that if you have concerns you need

1151
01:36:07,41 --> 01:36:12,61
to bring them up whether it's for or against
and I'm not the one to speak for you

1152
01:36:12,62 --> 01:36:18,19
but maybe someone needs to speak for you
so if there are residents concerned you

1153
01:36:18,20 --> 01:36:25,13
should probably get together
thank you thank you. First

1154
01:36:25,14 --> 01:36:31,35
or second time speakers. OK

1155
01:36:32,16 --> 01:36:33,80
I'll talk about yes sir please.

1156
01:36:39,48 --> 01:36:44,16
But. My name is time glam
eleven Mallory lane.

1157
01:36:46,72 --> 01:36:53,31
And there I served on the committee
there are some concerns I have.

1158
01:36:54,65 --> 01:37:01,20
And yet conceptually I think the idea is
wonderful. The concerns I have are twofold

1159
01:37:01,35 --> 01:37:07,64
One is when we talk about taking
care of projects like this whose

1160
01:37:07,65 --> 01:37:12,93
responsibility is it going to
be the developers or the town.

1161
01:37:14,25 --> 01:37:16,11
Because I agree it's

1162
01:37:16,12 --> 01:37:20,34
a matter of fact one of the things I
asked for was renderings when they were

1163
01:37:20,35 --> 01:37:26,08
brought back if they could not have time
trees and. Cheap stuff isn't applied here

1164
01:37:26,57 --> 01:37:31,03
so it was going to take care of the walk
area who's going to take care of the cost

1165
01:37:31,04 --> 01:37:37,93
of that. Too in the way of
concern is traffic. We can

1166
01:37:37,94 --> 01:37:44,65
have all of the wonderful walking with
in the mix use district but these people

1167
01:37:44,66 --> 01:37:50,25
have to go to work and how are they going
to get there most of them by automobile.

1168
01:37:52,87 --> 01:37:59,11
The last thing is when.
Will developers be allowed

1169
01:37:59,52 --> 01:38:05,12
to submit plans to the town
board or is this a period of

1170
01:38:05,13 --> 01:38:10,57
a moratorium until you decide on what you're
going to do with mixed use and that's

1171
01:38:10,61 --> 01:38:10,96
by way of

1172
01:38:10,97 --> 01:38:14,36
a question as you notice anything else have
absolute because I thought the idea of

1173
01:38:14,37 --> 01:38:20,75
all of this was to increase tax load
to the town of Penfield. And I guess

1174
01:38:21,54 --> 01:38:27,34
I would just suggest that we not sit on
this forever because developers are only

1175
01:38:27,35 --> 01:38:32,96
interested in developing for a certain
period of time and Other than that it was

1176
01:38:32,97 --> 01:38:37,38
a pleasure it really was you've got great
people working for the town conceptually

1177
01:38:37,39 --> 01:38:42,70
I think it can work but boy we've got to
watch for the tails thank you thank you

1178
01:38:42,71 --> 01:38:45,14
Tom. Yes ma'am.

1179
01:38:51,47 --> 01:38:58,07
My name is Heidi shear I reside in one four
eight zero Penn field center and I just

1180
01:38:58,59 --> 01:39:04,59
I'm excited about the idea of what's going
to be happening. And I I don't know if I

1181
01:39:04,60 --> 01:39:07,97
agree with some of the examples that were
shown I don't know if they're really

1182
01:39:07,98 --> 01:39:11,34
a play ball but I do think that I share

1183
01:39:11,35 --> 01:39:17,87
a lot of the concerns that some of the
residents also. Voiced before the noise.

1184
01:39:19,16 --> 01:39:25,23
Certainly the traffic the lighting I'm very
concerned that there would be more than

1185
01:39:25,24 --> 01:39:26,69
one developer at

1186
01:39:26,70 --> 01:39:33,22
a time trying to deal with everything and
I really like Mark would has his idea of

1187
01:39:33,59 --> 01:39:37,11
doing it in phases so that
there's not a piece here

1188
01:39:37,12 --> 01:39:43,55
a piece there. It would be wonderful for
Penfield but I really would like to see

1189
01:39:43,56 --> 01:39:45,90
something done well as opposed to

1190
01:39:45,91 --> 01:39:49,65
a lot of bits and pieces
but I wish you luck it's

1191
01:39:49,66 --> 01:39:55,70
a big job and I hope that the right decisions
are made for the best of everybody

1192
01:39:55,93 --> 01:40:02,04
big concern that there weren't as many
residents involved that actually own homes I

1193
01:40:02,05 --> 01:40:08,90
really worry about. The authenticity of
where I live we have over five acres

1194
01:40:09,26 --> 01:40:15,10
and I like that about Penfield I don't
want to be you know one quarter acre lots

1195
01:40:15,11 --> 01:40:21,10
that's what I chose and that's what many
people here have chosen so. Thank you

1196
01:40:21,65 --> 01:40:24,59
thank you I thank you. Sir.

1197
01:40:33,47 --> 01:40:37,64
Good evening. My name is A.J.

1198
01:40:37,65 --> 01:40:41,72
Had ski I live it fourteen
so over five strife and just

1199
01:40:41,73 --> 01:40:45,20
a couple of comments. I think

1200
01:40:45,21 --> 01:40:52,05
a great job done by the staff.
And this I also served as

1201
01:40:52,19 --> 01:40:58,77
a liaison to the. To the mix use committee
from the planning board so I set in and

1202
01:40:59,30 --> 01:41:05,38
several of the meetings and saw the the
work that was being done one of the things

1203
01:41:05,40 --> 01:41:11,14
as I look around the room.
I turned fifty this year.

1204
01:41:12,23 --> 01:41:19,08
And I think I significantly bring down the
median age in the room and one of the

1205
01:41:19,09 --> 01:41:20,30
things that I think we as

1206
01:41:20,31 --> 01:41:26,77
a town need to consider is. Do we want

1207
01:41:27,13 --> 01:41:32,58
young people. To stay here or
do we want them to move away.

1208
01:41:34,46 --> 01:41:40,100
And. All of the trends that I
read about in see are that

1209
01:41:41,51 --> 01:41:47,42
younger people are moving more toward
cities more toward communities like this

1210
01:41:48,26 --> 01:41:54,01
and. I know that we can't please all
people all the time we can never do that.

1211
01:41:57,39 --> 01:42:02,14
But I think that. This type of project is

1212
01:42:02,15 --> 01:42:08,60
a very forward thinking project
is it perfect probably not.

1213
01:42:11,73 --> 01:42:18,64
But. Whoever I certainly can't
lay claim to. Conceiving

1214
01:42:18,78 --> 01:42:24,81
the idea of it for Penfield but whoever
did I think was pretty forward thinking

1215
01:42:25,60 --> 01:42:30,47
and. Frankly

1216
01:42:30,48 --> 01:42:35,79
a combination of young people and old
people as people get older my father in law

1217
01:42:35,80 --> 01:42:37,99
lives over an arbor ridge and it's

1218
01:42:38,00 --> 01:42:44,43
a very tight knit community
and I know that. I think that

1219
01:42:44,47 --> 01:42:48,07
a place in that community
like a little cafe or

1220
01:42:48,08 --> 01:42:52,19
a little convenience store
would probably be great and as

1221
01:42:52,20 --> 01:42:58,64
a town would probably never would have
allowed it. In Weiner. So I think we have to

1222
01:42:58,68 --> 01:43:04,94
just start thinking. About things in new
and different ways and think outside the

1223
01:43:04,95 --> 01:43:05,21
box

1224
01:43:05,22 --> 01:43:14,58
a little bit. Those are my comments
thank you thanks making. Other

1225
01:43:14,59 --> 01:43:20,46
comments. So folks are
rather thinking I'll talk

1226
01:43:20,47 --> 01:43:25,33
a little bit about next steps and then we'll
give it one more opportunity for folks

1227
01:43:25,34 --> 01:43:31,51
to speak before we close the hearing so the
next steps from this meeting tonight is

1228
01:43:31,52 --> 01:43:35,64
that the board will typically on

1229
01:43:35,65 --> 01:43:38,83
a hearing like this that involves

1230
01:43:38,84 --> 01:43:44,65
a pretty significant to update or change
will tend to hold the hearing open for

1231
01:43:44,66 --> 01:43:50,44
a couple of weeks to give folks an opportunity
that may not have been able to be

1232
01:43:50,45 --> 01:43:54,41
here to cement some comments and those
that are here that if they have some

1233
01:43:54,42 --> 01:43:59,92
thoughts after they leave here have the
opportunity to feed information and so we

1234
01:43:59,96 --> 01:44:01,42
tend to leave that open for

1235
01:44:01,43 --> 01:44:04,67
a couple of weeks and then the
board will then next have

1236
01:44:04,71 --> 01:44:11,45
a conversation about this said an
upcoming. Work session and the board

1237
01:44:11,62 --> 01:44:11,99
twice

1238
01:44:12,00 --> 01:44:17,27
a month has work sessions it's on the second
on the fourth Wednesday we hold it in

1239
01:44:17,28 --> 01:44:21,73
the back of the room it's open to the
public and we publish our genders every

1240
01:44:21,74 --> 01:44:27,64
Friday early afternoon so that you will
see that I think we also have an ability

1241
01:44:28,13 --> 01:44:28,33
with

1242
01:44:28,34 --> 01:44:34,46
a number of people here that we probably
have an e-mail distribution list so we can

1243
01:44:34,50 --> 01:44:35,98
probably by

1244
01:44:35,99 --> 01:44:40,98
a combination of either getting some e-mails
out updating our website having it on

1245
01:44:40,99 --> 01:44:45,00
the agenda but my guess is
again will leave this open for

1246
01:44:45,01 --> 01:44:50,70
a couple of weeks and then next discuss
it by the very earliest the end of the

1247
01:44:50,71 --> 01:44:56,94
month or early in June so those will be the
next. And I would just stay stay tuned

1248
01:44:57,07 --> 01:45:03,35
for that. I'll give one more
opportunity for questions

1249
01:45:03,59 --> 01:45:07,99
comments raising some concerns
anything along those items.

1250
01:45:11,07 --> 01:45:11,86
Yes sir Bill.

1251
01:45:22,07 --> 01:45:26,75
I am Bill Wickham own two parcels
actually one right next to the Y.M.C.A.

1252
01:45:26,76 --> 01:45:31,23
Work in farms and then one on suites
corners road that's being considered to be

1253
01:45:31,24 --> 01:45:32,99
included as one of the B.

1254
01:45:33,36 --> 01:45:38,03
Zones and I just talk about two things
very quickly and one is change and one is

1255
01:45:38,04 --> 01:45:44,86
taxes and those things are always going
to change always happens in Texas always

1256
01:45:44,87 --> 01:45:48,99
have been and the one thing that I know
there's been talk about open space I

1257
01:45:49,00 --> 01:45:55,89
actually own some of the preserve
space so that that's always AG But

1258
01:45:56,21 --> 01:46:00,41
the thing about open space
is it costs money there was

1259
01:46:00,42 --> 01:46:05,21
a whole lot of money spent to preserve those
development rights before I owned it I

1260
01:46:05,89 --> 01:46:11,00
didn't collect that but it actually provided
an opportunity for my wife and I to

1261
01:46:11,01 --> 01:46:16,87
own some real estate and keep it in agriculture
you know wouldn't it. If it had not

1262
01:46:16,88 --> 01:46:20,84
been if the development rights hadn't been
purchased that wouldn't work for us but

1263
01:46:20,85 --> 01:46:26,38
now from the flip side of it it also does
very little in the big scheme of things

1264
01:46:26,39 --> 01:46:32,72
to contribute to the tax base of the of
the town and I think that's it and that's

1265
01:46:32,73 --> 01:46:39,21
an encouraging thing about the mixed use
concept that it is tax positive in terms

1266
01:46:39,22 --> 01:46:44,15
of you know I think Zakhar Mark showed
showed the slide earlier you know

1267
01:46:44,16 --> 01:46:46,28
residential development is it is

1268
01:46:46,29 --> 01:46:52,31
a draw on you know what it takes more service
then it then it provides in tax base

1269
01:46:52,32 --> 01:46:55,07
whereas whereas this is the
opposite so I think that's

1270
01:46:55,08 --> 01:47:00,83
a good thing change changed always it happens
all the time it can be uncomfortable

1271
01:47:00,84 --> 01:47:06,14
I know that I have neighbors that wanted
there to be Vineyard on that property

1272
01:47:06,15 --> 01:47:11,11
forever but the reality is you know even
farming even agriculture changes in. You

1273
01:47:11,12 --> 01:47:15,21
know the grapes that were growing there
were not economically viable but that

1274
01:47:15,22 --> 01:47:21,67
doesn't mean that you know property has
value and there is going to be change. It's

1275
01:47:21,68 --> 01:47:28,11
going to happen continue to happen I like
the idea that the town was out in front

1276
01:47:28,12 --> 01:47:32,75
of this actually. Looking for

1277
01:47:32,76 --> 01:47:37,68
a grand plant and it would be great if the
whole three hundred eighty five acres

1278
01:47:37,69 --> 01:47:41,88
was owned by one property owner then it
would make sense in terms of phases and

1279
01:47:41,89 --> 01:47:47,59
whatnot but the reality is you know Deb and
I don't have any plans for for exit in

1280
01:47:47,60 --> 01:47:52,23
the business we're in right now and so I
don't think it's realistic to expect that

1281
01:47:52,24 --> 01:47:52,66
there's going to be

1282
01:47:52,67 --> 01:47:57,21
a developer that can command and unify
all those property owners on a on

1283
01:47:57,22 --> 01:48:01,95
a single vision and then make it work like
like Walt Disney did in central Florida

1284
01:48:01,96 --> 01:48:06,42
so I think the reality of the the situation
is that it will have to be at least

1285
01:48:06,43 --> 01:48:06,79
somewhat of

1286
01:48:06,80 --> 01:48:10,57
a piecemeal development I think there are
some opportunities were some things he

1287
01:48:10,58 --> 01:48:15,67
had gone in and I think it will catch and
and as as there are successes they will

1288
01:48:15,68 --> 01:48:19,42
continue to grow and and hopefully
unify thank you thank you both.

01:52:00,62 --> 01:52:06,52
a runner at Anfield dot org That's all I
have this evening thank you very much I

1339
01:52:06,53 --> 01:52:08,23
have one announcement I think I have

1340
01:52:08,24 --> 01:52:14,50
a couple but I apologize I
left my sheet on my my desk

1341
01:52:15,26 --> 01:52:22,16
but the one that is I think most important
at this point is that I'm happy to

1342
01:52:22,17 --> 01:52:26,82
report and the town board was made aware
of this earlier this week but I'm happy to

1343
01:52:26,83 --> 01:52:33,47
report that the town of Penfield was
really rated by Moody's Investors.

1344
01:52:34,67 --> 01:52:36,70
We had a and

1345
01:52:36,74 --> 01:52:42,37
a double A two rating we
have been moved up to an

1346
01:52:42,41 --> 01:52:43,38
a double

1347
01:52:43,42 --> 01:52:50,09
a one rating. There are only eight
percent of the cities towns

1348
01:52:50,10 --> 01:52:56,45
villages in New York State that have that
radiate and I'm happy to report that

1349
01:52:56,54 --> 01:52:56,73
through

1350
01:52:56,74 --> 01:53:02,87
a lot of hard work fire department heads
our finance department our board that we

1351
01:53:02,88 --> 01:53:09,84
were able to move to that there is
only one higher rating that is AAA.

1352
01:53:10,89 --> 01:53:17,59
That is. Currently held by law. Less than
five percent of the towns villages and

1353
01:53:17,60 --> 01:53:21,60
cities in New York state
but it certainly is

1354
01:53:21,61 --> 01:53:28,46
a goal that we will continue to look at
and to benchmark for us what that means

1355
01:53:28,47 --> 01:53:33,61
for our residences is that any bonding
that we currently have we have an

1356
01:53:33,62 --> 01:53:37,70
opportunity to reduce that
interest rate in fact

1357
01:53:37,71 --> 01:53:43,17
a war in the process of doing that right
now and we will find out next week how

1358
01:53:43,18 --> 01:53:48,28
much we will be able to save on and on an
annual basis as well as the life of those

1359
01:53:48,29 --> 01:53:55,21
bonds right now the initial projection.
Is about twenty thousand dollars on an

1360
01:53:55,22 --> 01:53:58,35
annual basis and more than a quarter of

1361
01:53:58,36 --> 01:54:03,25
a million over the life of the
bonds and again that probably is

1362
01:54:03,26 --> 01:54:10,12
a low estimate we're looking for the
final sale but again it was you know an

1363
01:54:10,13 --> 01:54:17,06
outstanding news that came from Moody's and
again I want to recognize staff finance

02:14:03,62 --> 02:14:07,81

02:14:41,14 --> 02:14:41,96

a roll call vote for you. That's
where I found more for eyes.

1624
02:15:15,61 --> 02:15:20,66
All right that brings us to the next part
of the resolution all business is there

1625
02:15:20,67 --> 02:15:24,74
any old business to come before the board
to see just real quickly Mr Supervisor if

1626
02:15:24,75 --> 02:15:27,33
I can at the beginning
of this meeting we had

1627
02:15:27,34 --> 02:15:32,83
a mixed use the route to fifty mixed use
development public hearing in we had

1628
02:15:32,84 --> 02:15:36,71
a couple speakers talking I just wanted
to play now if I can because I think it's

1629
02:15:36,72 --> 02:15:42,88
a critical point that the committee itself
the mixed use to fifty committee were

1630
02:15:42,92 --> 02:15:47,46
residents and property owners of the town
of Penfield it was not the. Own board

1631
02:15:47,82 --> 02:15:51,99
that was on that committee I was the
liaison to that committee they made the

1632
02:15:52,00 --> 02:15:57,86
recommendation. In the manual that we have
in front of us today that is publicly

1633
02:15:57,87 --> 02:16:03,00
available and when you look on page
eighty six of that mean you will it under

1634
02:16:03,01 --> 02:16:08,22
acknowledgements it points out the members
of the route to fifty mixed use steering

1635
02:16:08,23 --> 02:16:13,36
committee thirteen residents and property
owners and the critical part that I think

1636
02:16:13,37 --> 02:16:18,08
one speaker may have confused some of the
some of the members here in the in the

1637
02:16:18,09 --> 02:16:22,88
audience are those watching this is that
the mixed use the mixed use steering

1638
02:16:22,89 --> 02:16:27,72
committee the route to fifty steering
committee also comprised of residents that

1639
02:16:27,73 --> 02:16:32,92
live in surrounding neighborhoods not
just property owners of the impacted

1640
02:16:32,93 --> 02:16:37,77
properties in this document and I'm looking
at the document right now and you can

1641
02:16:37,78 --> 02:16:38,41
see where there's

1642
02:16:38,42 --> 02:16:43,29
a route to fifty residents there's
East Penfield Homeowner's Association

1643
02:16:43,30 --> 02:16:48,16
representative there's the whale in Rhode
Shire court two representatives so two

1644
02:16:48,17 --> 02:16:52,84
individuals country club East representative
there's another country club East

1645
02:16:52,85 --> 02:16:57,43
neighborhood representative there's
a run Renwick run representative

1646
02:16:57,78 --> 02:17:00,68
a Tomlinson drive representative and

1647
02:17:00,69 --> 02:17:03,70
a Mallory Ling representative
and so I think that's just

1648
02:17:03,71 --> 02:17:08,85
a critical part moving forward that it
wasn't just property owners that were

1649
02:17:08,86 --> 02:17:13,98
a part of putting this document that
we have before us together it was also

1650
02:17:13,99 --> 02:17:18,76
residents in surrounding neighborhoods
that were part of the decision making

1651
02:17:18,77 --> 02:17:21,97
process and putting this
document forward as

1652
02:17:21,98 --> 02:17:27,49
