Comments on: Planning board takes up FEIS tonight http://clarionnewsblog.wordpress.com/2008/04/07/planning-board-takes-up-feis-tonight/ News and views from Livingston County New York Thu, 19 Jun 2008 14:22:25 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Jean Lindsay http://clarionnewsblog.wordpress.com/2008/04/07/planning-board-takes-up-feis-tonight/#comment-1032 Jean Lindsay Tue, 08 Apr 2008 15:08:50 +0000 http://clarionnewsblog.wordpress.com/?p=112#comment-1032 At last night's Planning Board meeting, one board member was concerned that a lack of a curb cut on 20A for access to Lowes would delay rescue operations in case of emergencies. All of 20A delays everything but the bottom line is there are emergency corridors parallel to traffic on 20A and should be on Volunteer Road. Then, too we could request a heliport on top of Lowes tastefully obscured by the point on their roof structure. Finally, re orientation of the Lowes building, it is very satisfying to exit Wegman's Plaza and to be able to look over WalMart to see the Valley in the distance. That is a big victory for human love of the landscape and a comfort to all who are here for the Valley. I hope the Board will remember the import of preserving any/all views of our Valley in the Lowes and make it requisite in the review of all future applications.
