Town board approves amended site plan for 2051 Baseline Road with landscaping, color and RPC conditions
Summary
The Grand Island Town Board reaffirmed a SEQR negative declaration and approved amended site plans for North Baseline Properties LLC at 2051 Baseline Road with conditions including Baseline Road landscaping, earth‑tone building colors and an RPC requirement; some members questioned whether adding restrooms required a new site plan.
The Grand Island Town Board voted to reaffirm a State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) negative declaration and approved amended site plans for North Baseline Properties LLC at 2051 Baseline Road, subject to planning-board conditions.
Board members adopted conditions that require Baseline Road landscaping improvements, earth‑tone building colors and installation of an RPC on the premises, and approved the amended plan by roll call. The planning-board recommendation and the reaffirmed SEQR finding were both accepted.
During discussion, a member questioned whether the proposed addition of bathrooms constituted a change of use that would require resubmission; the transcript shows disagreement among members and department staff over procedural timing for RPC clearance and whether the project should have returned to the planning board, but the board ultimately approved the plan with the listed conditions.
No appeals, legal findings or building-permit releases were recorded at the meeting; the board discussed whether the RPC should be required before issuance of a building permit or before occupancy and directed staff to follow standard permit procedures and planning-board conditions.
