Steve Walczek and James Hotaling, Town Supervisor
were present to discuss the sub-division/ re-subdivision.
The properties owned by Mr. Walczyk consist of three
existing tax parcels.
The two proposed future parcels, one 3.65 acres,
which will be retained by Walczyk, and one 14.46-acre parcel which will be sold
to the Town by Mr. Walczyk.
One thing the Town Engineer Piascik proposed on the
maps was for Tax Map ID 82.12-01-05 should be indicated to be abandoned and
combined it with Tax Map ID # 82.12-1-4.
Chairman Ostrowski further explained that this is
new to our board and further researched New York State Code about abandoning
subdivisions and found that there is a law on the books about, abandoning
subdivisions and it’s been in place for at least five years. The law basically indicates
a developer can decide “I'm not going to do anything with the subdivision, I
want to abandon the parcels and it reverts back to its original partial.
Chairman Ostrowski stated “as long as the county accepts it, I'm okay with it.”
Chairman Ostrowski would like to send a recommendation to the Village to proceed
with the subdivision and to schedule a Public Hearing at the 5.12.2021 Village
meeting.
Member
Lipiska motioned to send recommendation to the Village to proceed with the
subdivision and to schedule a Public Hearing at the 5.12.2021 Village meeting. Member
