Case No. PB 20-02 Bharathi, 170 Worthington Road, (P.O. White Plains, N.Y.) – Wetland/Watercourse Permit and Tree Removal Permit (Town Forestry Officer approval)
A work session to discuss the decision of a wetland/watercourse permit application involving the proposed construction of a single-family residence on an approved lot, with related improvements. It is noted that this property was part of a subdivision and wetland/watercourse permit issued by the Planning Board (PB 05-04) on August 5, 2010. The originally approved subdivision, while involving disturbances to the on-site wetland, watercourse and adjacent buffer, and required mitigation which was carried out by the former owner, cited the new house outside of the 100-foot regulated buffer area. The wetland, watercourse and wetland/watercourse buffer area on the applicant’s property consist of approximately 32,868 sq. ft., and the applicant is proposing approximately 10,386 sq. ft. of disturbance within the regulated buffer area. No direct disturbance to the wetland or watercourse is proposed. The applicant proposes approximately 1,207 cubic yards of excavation, and 0 cubic yards of imported fill. The applicant proposes a series of drywells, both in front of and to the rear of the proposed residence, to handle stormwater runoff from new impervious surfaces. One (1) regulated tree is proposed for removal in connection with the project. The applicant has provided a landscaping plan which calls for the planting of trees and shrubs, as replacement. The subject property consists of approximately 48,591 sq. ft., and is situated on the westerly side of Worthington Road, opposite the intersection of Country Club Drive and Worthington Road. The property is situated in the R-20 One-Family Residence District, and is designated on the tax map of the Town as Parcel ID: 7.450-261-2.2.
