Menands board approves subdivision at 1 Broadway after zoning relief
Summary
Trustees approved creation of a new parcel at 1 Broadway after the zoning board granted a rear-setback variance; the project was described as necessary for site layout and HUD financing considerations.
Menands Village trustees on Monday approved a subdivision at 1 Broadway after the village zoning board granted relief from rear-setback requirements.
Speaker 1, who presented the proposal, told trustees the lots are constrained by depth and that the project required a variance "because we have a a lot here which only has 30 foot depth where 90 is required." He said the subdivision and related lot configuration are tied to financing steps, including HUD requirements, and that creating a separate parcel facilitates those needs.
Speaker 2 noted the zoning board had issued a letter granting the requested setback relief, and the trustees moved to approve the subdivision for parcel number 66.5-1-13.1 in the Broadway Business District. Speaker 5 formally moved approval; trustees recorded their affirmative votes.
The board directed staff to finalize and sign the subdivision documents for filing. No conditions or amendments were recorded on the motion during the meeting.
Next steps include completing the subdivision legal documents and submitting them for recording and permitting as necessary under village code.
