Planning board converts FedEx parking expansion to final approval with DEC permit condition
Summary
SunCap representatives asked the board to upgrade a previously granted preliminary approval for a FedEx parking expansion to final; the board approved the change with the condition that the applicant obtain the DEC permit and recorded two abstentions from members who missed the prior meeting.
SunCap Property Group representatives asked the Orangetown Planning Board to convert a previously issued preliminary approval for a FedEx parking expansion (phases 2A/2B) to final approval. The board approved the modification but added a condition that the applicant obtain any required DEC permits before work may proceed.
Seth Mandelbaum, representing SunCap and the FedEx applicant, told the board the preliminary approvals dated from earlier hearings and that the company was asking to avoid repeating the final-review process. The board noted the same conditions granted on June 10, 2026 would remain in place and explicitly added a DEC-permit requirement.
The motion to modify the preliminary approval to final passed; the board recorded two abstentions from members Mr. Warren and Mr. Miller because they were not present at the earlier hearing where preliminary approval was discussed. The chair announced the tally and the conditions that accompany the approval.
Next steps: The applicant must obtain the DEC permit and comply with all previously imposed conditions before final project activity proceeds.
