Unanimously carried. ALAN AND GAIL WEITLICH, 2780 WEST MAIN STREET First on the agenda was the proposal from Alan and Gail Weitlich to return the station to the original plan – with gas and DEC approved tanks, reduced amount of pumps, snack shop and repair shop at 2780 W. Main Street. Mr. and Mrs. Weitlich, owners of the property and Mr. Jim Galloway from American Petroleum (who took the tanks out and will be reinstalling them) were present. Mr. Weitlich stated he would be putting the tanks back in the same location as they were before. Mr. Galloway stated there would be less tanks in the ground, less dispensers, less hoses – they are not putting the diesel back on the side the way it was. It will be more convenient for the public to get in and out. There are no changes to the physical conditions of the lot. The existing canopy will remain. There will be a new fire suppression system installed to meet the regulations. New lighting will be installed which will be all recessed/flat. Mr. Morris reminded Mr. Galloway that he will need photometric and cut sheets for the proposed lighting. It was stated that double walled fiberglass tanks will be installed. New regulations require a totally contained system. Mr. Morris recommended that the applicant contact Village Engineer Paggi to make sure what they are submitting is what Mr. Paggi needs to review. It was stated that the applicant has provided a spill incident report to the Planning Board with the date that the spill case with the DEC was closed. Mr. Morris asked applicant to supply a complete copy of the spill report for the files. Applicant stated that 6 months ago he gave up the snack shop portion of the business because the demand was no longer there. But now that they are putting gas back in they would also like to operate the snack shop again. Mr. Morris stated applicant would have to put the area on the site plan where the snack shop would be located and how it would be laid out. Mr. Morris asked Mr. Murphy to confirm that the snack shop was auxiliary to the gas station. Mr. Murphy, after reviewing the definition of gasoline service station felt that it was ok to have The snack shop. Mr. Morris summarized what the applicants would need for their next Planning Board appearance: (1) A Planning Board application which clearly states what they are doing, (2) complete site plan submission as per the Village Code and (3) short form EAF.
