North Castle Planning Board: approvals, referrals and procedural items at May 11 meeting
Summary
At its May 11 meeting the board approved site-plan and field-change items (26 Carolyn Place; 263 Bedford/Banksville Road), sent a positive referral for a membership club at Sir John's Plaza, and directed applicants on ARB review and public hearings for several other properties.
Beyond the two public hearings, the North Castle Planning Board handled a series of routine and procedural matters on May 11.
26 Carolyn Place: The board reviewed updated plans and, after the town engineer confirmed removal of previously problematic fill, voted to approve the site plan and a tree-removal permit.
Sir John's Plaza membership club (cigar bar): The board reviewed a town‑board referral for a special-use permit for a membership club at Sir John's Plaza. Applicant representative James Montalione described the submission but had no landscaping details to provide; the planning board issued a positive referral to the town board without further comment.
263 Bedford/Banksville Road: A new landscape architect described modest field changes to an approved master plan (pool relocation, patio and driveway tweaks, reduced wall extents and added planting). The board agreed most adjustments could be handled as a field-change amendment but required the applicant to return to the planning board for any pergola or fence changes; the board adopted the amended field-change resolution.
6 Sterling Road and 6 Massaro Court: For 6 Sterling Road the board asked the applicant to check with the building inspector on whether the proposed living space in a garage complies with code and to bring ARB input before public hearing. For 6 Massaro Court the town flagged a rear-grade/exposed-foundation detail; the applicant said they will regrade the rear corner and return to ARB before a public hearing.
Summit Club and Bedford Greenwich Animal Hospital: The animal hospital deferred tonight; the board granted an extension for the Summit Club application while background water/sewer easement and infrastructure discussions continue.
