Farmingdale trustees review multiple development permits, enforcement actions and zoning updates
Summary
Board updated on several development projects — Blue and Gold’s planned 12‑unit building at 1 Conklin, The Carlyle financing, Sterling Green site work, and commercial permits for 7‑11/Sunoco — and noted enforcement activity including a fire‑marshal shutdown of 37 Potter Street and an unpermitted tent at 317 Main St.
During the Nov. 28 work session the Board of Trustees received a round‑up of ongoing building projects, permits and code enforcement actions across the village.
Blue and Gold Development is expected to bring final plans for a 12‑unit building at 1 Conklin Street; the project remains pending New York State Department of Transportation sign‑off. The Carlyle (formerly Robbie Lee) has closed its financing and structural steel has been ordered, according to the minutes. The Zoning Board of Appeals approved plans for a 7‑11 and Sunoco; the Board approved a Special Use Permit and is awaiting construction drawings before issuing a building permit.
At Sterling Green, a building permit has been issued, demolition is complete and site work is underway under Peter Florey/D&F Development. One application for a single home on the south side of the Black Course development has been submitted and will go to the Planning Board.
The Building Department reported enforcement actions: 37 Potter Street was shut down by the Nassau County Fire Marshal for failing to file plans for a sprinkler system and an illegal occupant on the second floor will be removed. A tent installed at 317 Main Street without a permit was noted and will be addressed. The Board also asked the Building Superintendent to investigate certain Office‑Residence properties for R/O zoning compliance and requested a zoning‑map update.
Other development notes in the minutes include Daler Pizza at 331 Main Street in full construction mode, the proposal for a fine arts center advancing to the second round of New York State funding, and concerns about trash being set out on Main Street instead of behind buildings.
The minutes do not list application timelines, final construction schedules, or dates for future hearings beyond references to Planning Board activity and required county/state approvals.
