Planning board roundup: extensions, SEQRA declaration and permits approved
Summary
At its May 21 meeting the Greenburgh Planning Board approved a six‑month extension for PB1625, adopted a SEQR negative declaration and special‑use permit with parking reduction for a Hartsdale restaurant, approved conditions for an indoor recreation facility, approved a small hydrant/easement amendment, and issued recommendations to the ZBA on variances.
The Greenburgh Planning Board on May 21 handled multiple procedural votes and approvals across its agenda.
Key outcomes
• PB1625 (Teberbau Subdivision): The board approved a six‑month extension (retroactive to March 31, 2025) for the applicant to address town engineering comments after delays from the Town’s Bureau of Engineering.
• PB2508 (Makoto Mikado Sushi, 214 E. Hartsdale Ave): The board adopted a SEQR (SEEKER) negative declaration for an unlisted action tied to a shared‑parking reduction request, approved the special‑use permit as amended and granted a shared‑parking reduction of 18 spaces. The board conditioned approval on the applicant installing visible signage in the front window directing patrons to rear parking, compliant with the sign ordinance and subject to Hartsdale Contextual Review Committee review.
• PB2512 (GolfCave, 93 Norwood Rd): The board approved the special‑use permit with conditions that include removing/covering an exterior ticket booth (applicant agreed), upgrading exterior lighting to energy‑efficient fixtures, and posting mezzanine‑occupancy signage; the applicant agreed to a maximum mezzanine occupancy consistent with building‑code constraints.
• PB1621 (Loop Road/Regeneron): The board waived a public hearing and approved an amendment to a previously approved subdivision plat to relocate a fire hydrant and revise associated water‑easement lines on the plan.
• PB2409 (Chow Clayton): For two additional area variances tied to a Y‑termination for fire access, the board updated its earlier recommendation and voted to send a positive recommendation to the Zoning Board of Appeals based on reduced impervious cover and other planning considerations.
What this means: Most items involved routine or technical adjustments — extensions, SEQR determinations, and conditions attached to approvals — rather than major policy changes. Several approvals include follow‑up items for staff and applicants such as revised plats, sign code compliance, or stormwater confirmations.
