Case No. PB 22-01 Ries Subdivision, Beaver Hill Road (P.O. Elmsford, N.Y.) – Final Subdivision
A work session to discuss the decision of a Final Subdivision application involving the proposed resubdivision of 9 existing tax lots (7.190-68-3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 & 11). Tax lot 7.190-68-3, an undeveloped, approximately 57-foot wide by 550-foot-long parcel of land situated to the rear of the developed lots known as 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 48 & 50 Beaver Hill Road, which had been foreclosed by the Town in the 1950s. In 2018, the property was auctioned off by the Town to a private party, who later submitted preliminary applications with the intent to develop said parcel. A preliminary injunction was issued by the State Supreme Court in 2019 prohibiting the new owner and Town from taking further action in pursuit of a Building Permit. A settlement was later reached whereby neighbors to the property, and the Town, purchased the property back and, in return, the neighbors agreed to seek Subdivision approval from the Town to resubdivide the vacant parcel and add land area to their current, developed properties. It is noted that the undeveloped parcel presently contains many encroachments from said Beaver Hill Road properties. The Applicants seek to resubdivide the subject lots in order to provide additional land area to each of the Beaver Hill Road properties, thus reducing the overall size of the undeveloped parcel. The properties, in total, consist of approximately 79,994 sq. ft. (1.84 acres) and are situated on the south side of Beaver Hill Road between Eastward Place and Catskill Place. The properties are located in the R-5 One-Family Residence District and are designated on the tax map of the Town of Greenburgh as Parcel ID: 7.190-68-3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 & 11.
