Planning board sets March 2 hearing for Henke site-plan amendment to install outdoor heat pumps
Summary
The board accepted the Henke application for a site-plan amendment to install two outdoor units (heat pumps/condensers) at 11 Jones Street, found documentation of no DEC jurisdiction and an engineer letter about septic placement, and scheduled the public hearing for March 2 with conditions on final easement language and Grant Lyons review.
The Planning Board accepted an application from Edwin and Mary Jo Henke for a site-plan amendment at 11 Jones Street to locate two outdoor condenser/heat-pump units and scheduled a public hearing for March 2.
An architect for the Henkes explained the preferred equipment location at the rear of the house adjacent to the addition; board members and staff discussed routing of vertical conduit, potential sightlines from the street, and whether the units would be mounted on housekeeping pads. Staff confirmed receipt of a DEC letter of no jurisdiction and an engineer’s statement confirming septic suitability for the proposed layout. The board agreed the application was complete enough to accept for further review and directed staff to circulate the plans to advisory committees (CAB, WAC, HAPAC) and confirm final easement language and Grant Lyons’ review as conditions of any approval.
The public hearing was scheduled for March 2; the board authorized administrative stamp-and-signature after the conditions are satisfied.
