Planning board approves site‑plan amendment for 365 Rangbrook Road with conditions
Summary
The board approved a draft resolution to amend the site plan for Quincicar LLC at 365 Rangbrook Road, reaffirming SEQR Type II classification under Town Code chapter 125; approval is subject to three standard conditions and final applicant satisfaction.
The Rhinebeck Planning Board voted to approve a site‑plan amendment for Quincicar LLC at 365 Rangbrook Road after the applicant’s architect described a reduced scope of work: window replacements, removal of a rear propane fireplace and chimney, modest additional windows not visible off‑site, installation of heat‑pump condensers under rebuilt decking, and foundation repairs carried out in existing locations.
Planner/staff read a draft approval resolution under Town Code chapter 125, finding the proposed work consistent with code and classifying the action as a Type II SEQR action for which coordinated environmental quality review is not required. The resolution authorized the board chair to sign the site plan subject to three listed conditions and directed staff to provide the applicant with next steps related to permits and building‑department submissions.
Board members asked clarifying questions about staging, traffic impacts, and potential effects on nearby scenic hillside views; the applicant and project team said excavation and foundation repairs could be staged on the property without roadway impacts. The board then moved, seconded and carried the approval by voice vote.
Next steps: the planning board secretary will provide the applicant with the approval resolution and a checklist of items for the building department. Any building permits must match the approved planning‑board plans.
The board recorded the approval on the record and the public was thanked and dismissed.
