Greenberg board schedules Nov. 5 public hearing after bakery seeks eight indoor seats; asks for parking and egress details
Summary
A bakery seeking an incidental‑dining special permit for eight seats at 742 Central Park Ave was asked for a full‑day parking availability study (Friday and Saturday) and confirmation of egress widths; the board scheduled a public hearing for Nov. 5 and requested materials by Oct. 29.
The Town of Greenberg Planning Board set a public hearing for Nov. 5, 2025, after the owner of a small bakery applied for an incidental‑dining special permit to add eight seats (four two‑person tables) to an existing 716‑square‑foot retail bakery.
At a work session Oct. 15, the applicant presented a parking study (a single‑day February 11 weekday survey) and said operations would be takeout‑oriented with limited seating. Board members said seating changes the intensity of use and asked the applicant to perform additional parking availability analyses — a full day Friday and a full day Saturday — and to submit the results by Oct. 29 so they can be posted before the Nov. 5 public hearing. The board also asked staff and the applicant to confirm that the rear egress door dimensions meet building‑code requirements for emergency egress.
The applicant agreed to provide the requested documentation and the board said the item requires a public hearing regardless of the parking outcome. The public hearing notice and signage instructions will be provided to the applicant by staff.
Next steps: applicant will submit the requested parking analyses and an updated egress plan by Oct. 29; the board will hold a public hearing on Nov. 5 and consider written and oral comments before making a decision.
