Chairman Donald Lamay reviewed Jeff Johnsons Special Use Permit and the new site plan.

 

In reviewing the site plan Chairman Donald Lamay mentioned that he didn’t see the proposed barn that Jeff was going to build.  Jeff did however put where the 100,000 gal. tank will be and the proposed dike.

 

Chairman Donald Lamay went over the stipulations:  1. Applicant must reapply to the Planning Board if his business should grow beyond scope of this special use permit.  2. Applicant must comply with all zoning regulation sections pertaining to agricultural product distribution centers.  3. Detailed site plan will be part of this special use permit application and any changes must be brought to the planning board for review and possible actions and or changes to this application if needed.  4. When proposed 100,000 gallon tank is constructed a berm as agreed will be installed at time of construction to aid in containment in the event of tank failure.

 

Chairman Donald Lamay asked the Board Members if they were good with the new site plan and the stipulations.  The Planning Board Members all agreed with the new site plan and the stipulations.

 

Next Chairman Donald Lamay discussed empty spots on the planning board and Alt. Board Members.  Chairman Donald Lamay looked up the definition of alternate Board Members.  The definition mentions nothing about the alternate being able to vote when there is not enough members at a meeting.  There are other questions that the Planning Board has.

 

A suggestion was made to put together a proposal with all the questions the Planning Board has and submit it to the Town Board.

 

Next Chairman Donald Lamay let the Planning Board know that on May 23rd there was a noise complaint at Kevin Brubackers property on Roosevelt Hwy.  Kevin has a machine that runs coolers and compressors.  The complainant went to Kevin to discuss the noise.  Promises were made but nothing was done.  The complainant called Dan Wolfe and then Don Lamay.

 

Chairman Donald Lamay and Dan Wolfe went to Kevin and discussed the issue with him.  Kevin did agree that the machine was too loud.  Kevin did put an exhaust on it – which it did help and rubber bumpers. 

 

Kevin is taking action to quiet it down.  He plans on building something around it.

 

Other Business – Chairman Donald Lamay made a motion to adjourn July and August meetings unless something needs the boards’ attention.
