Village planning board approves site plan for flex-storage redevelopment at 17 Albany Avenue
Summary
A village planning board approved a site plan for a flex-storage redevelopment at 17 Albany Avenue, issuing a negative declaration and making final approval contingent on sign-off from Del Romano and Clough Harbor; discussion covered access controls, security, and fire-protection questions.
A village planning board approved a site plan for a flex-storage redevelopment at 17 Albany Avenue after hearing a presentation from the applicant and his engineer. Chair (speaker 1) asked for a motion “to issue a negative declaration for secret purposes and to approve this site plan contingent upon Del Romano and Clough Harbor's final sign off,” and the board recorded the approval following a motion on the floor.
Dominic, a civil engineer with Rico Associates, presented the plan and described the redevelopment footprint and utilities, saying, “we're proposing the storage units in this,” and that the project would increase green space by about 11 percent while disturbing roughly 0.92 acres of a 1.5-acre development area. The applicant, Tommy, described the units as “flex storage,” intended for annual commercial leases and not for vehicle storage. Board members pressed for details on access, emergency response, and technical review sign-offs; staff noted a few outstanding technical comments and that the lease will prohibit outdoor storage.
