Planning Commission approves routine signage, parking and site changes; short-term rental permitted with 4-guest limit
Summary
At its May 13 meeting the Planning Commission approved a series of applications including signage, parking expansions, and site improvements; it approved a second-floor short-term rental permit limited to four guests and authorized EV chargers and a standby generator for a health facility project.
The City of Canandaigua Planning Commission at its May 13 meeting approved a slate of routine applications covering signage, minor parking work, façade changes and site infrastructure, concluding several consent-type items by unanimous vote.
Key approvals included: a new pole-sign face and blue accent lighting for 7 BREW (the lighting approval included the condition that accent lighting be turned off at close of business); an expansion of a nine-space lot for Gleaners Community Kitchen at St. Johns Court to add two spaces; paving of a gravel lot behind a South Main Street building owned by K & S Blue Door Holdings LLC; a sign for The Nicotra Law Firm; replacement awning and wall sign for Sweet Expressions; a hanging sign for Tavern Off Main (applicant also asked the commission to consider temporary window signage); and site changes at 183 Parrish Street to accommodate a Rochester Regional Health tenant, including EV charging stations, a standby generator and a canopy.
Commissioners approved a Special Use Permit for a second-floor short-term rental at 16 Lakeshore Drive with the condition "Occupancy shall be limited to 4 guests," moved by Commissioner Anthony DeMuzio. The short-term rental application involves an existing two-bedroom, approximately 1,500-square-foot apartment and two designated on-site parking spaces; the commission classified the action as a Type II action under SEQR.
On the 183 Parrish Street proposal, Paul Colucci of DiMarco Group said the standby generator will typically exercise once a week, will not be set to cycle in the evening or overnight, and is rated at about 71 decibels; the commission approved the application as submitted. Most of the consent items were approved by motion and carried by unanimous vote (5-0) where recorded.
What happens next: approvals are effective as recorded and any conditions (for example, lighting hours and rental occupancy) are enforceable under city approvals.
