Planning Board approves lot‑line change to remove driveway encroachment at Dogwood Hills Road
Summary
The Town of Newburgh Planning Board unanimously approved a lot‑line change at 28 Dogwood Hills Road that Elm applicant Darren Doce said will eliminate a driveway encroachment; the Board required deeds and payment of fees to effectuate the change.
The Town of Newburgh Planning Board voted unanimously Aug. 21 to approve a lot‑line change for two parcels at 28 Dogwood Hills Road that an applicant representative said will remove a driveway encroachment.
Darren Doce, the applicant’s representative, told the board the two parcels “adjoin along the rear lot line. We're revising that line to eliminate the driveway encroachment.” Town staff confirmed the Zoning Board of Appeals had already granted variances for existing side‑yard deficiencies.
Planning Board Attorney Dominic Cordisco told the board the approval should be conditioned on submission of deeds to effectuate the lot‑line change and payment of required fees. Pat Hines of MH&E said adjoiners' notices had been sent and characterized the lot‑line change as a Type 2 SEQRA action, meaning no further SEQRA review was required for this item.
Board members moved and seconded the resolution to approve the lot‑line change; the roll call vote was unanimous in favor. Chairman John P. Ewasutyn noted the ZBA variances and thanked the applicant for addressing the issue.
The approval requires the applicant to submit recorded deeds and pay applicable fees before the change is finalized.
