Planning board closes steep-slopes hearing at 39 Carlton Drive, asks for percolation test data
Summary
The Mount Kisco Planning Board closed the public hearing for a steep-slopes application at 39 Carlton Drive on May 12, 2026 after requesting an updated narrative to meet Village Code and percolation-test data with calculations; the board also queried a waiver for a 60-foot retaining wall.
The Mount Kisco Planning Board closed a public hearing on a steep-slopes application for 39 Carlton Drive (PB 2026-0479) on May 12, 2026 after asking the applicant for additional technical information.
Village Engineer Anthony Oliveri told the board the steep-slopes narrative must be updated to meet Village Code criteria and requested that the applicant include percolation-test data with the submission’s calculations. Applicant representative Alyssa Manfredonia of Haynes Architects discussed revisions the applicant would make to address the board’s concerns; property owners Beth and Jonathan Rothschild participated via Zoom.
Board members asked whether a waiver would be needed for a retaining wall described in the application as 60 feet. Building Inspector Peter J. Miley recommended the applicant consider a 110-30 code-compliant review outside the steep-slopes provision and suggested screening as a mitigation option.
No public comments were received either verbally or in writing during the hearing. Vice Chairman W. Robert Phillips moved to close the hearing; Michael Bonforte seconded, and the motion carried 6–0.
