Summary
Summary of formal actions taken by the Peekskill Zoning Board of Appeals at the April meeting: ZBA consented to the Planning Commission as SEQRA lead for a 614 South Street application; the board classified the 14 Crescent Court porch as a Type II action and granted a 4 ft 7 in area variance with conditions and a one-year expiration; prior meeting minutes were approved.
At its April meeting the Peekskill Zoning Board of Appeals recorded the following formal actions and voice votes.
- Consent to Planning Commission as SEQRA lead for application at 614 South Street: Motion made by the Chair; second recorded and approved by voice. The ZBA agreed to remain an involved agency and to receive notices on determinations and proceedings.
- 14 Crescent Court (porch): ZBA determined the porch action to be a Type II SEQRA action (no further environmental review required) and subsequently granted an area variance allowing a 4 ft 7 in encroachment into the front-yard setback. The variance carries the following recorded conditions: revised plans to label distances and square-footage, change sheet 1A wording from "site plan" to "plot plan," payment of outstanding fees and escrow, compliance with the city's construction and noise codes, restrictions on storing materials in the public right-of-way, and submission of as-built plans upon completion. The variance was recorded to expire one year from the date of approval.
- Minutes: The board approved minutes for 08/15/2024 and 01/16/2025 by voice vote.
The transcript does not record precise roll-call tallies; votes were recorded by voice as "Aye." For implementation, the applicant for 14 Crescent Court must submit revised plans for final sign-off and the Planning Commission will proceed as lead for coordinated SEQRA review on the 614 South Street application.
