Describe your application as proposed. Looking for an area variance for parking, due to no off street parking on property 2. Explain why you believe that your variance request will not create an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or be a detriment to nearby properties if it is granted. Property was previously used as a Café, and previous variations did not create any undesirable change to the neighborhood nor would our proposed variations 3. Can the benefit you seek by virtue of this variance application be achieved by revising your proposal? If not, explain why there are no other alternatives. No, because there is no off street parking available on the property at all. 4. Explain why you believe the proposed variance is not substantial. I don't believe this a substantial variance because it has been granted to the same address for previous tenant as well as many locations on the same block 5. Explain why you believe the proposed variance will not have an adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood. Proposed variance was granted at the same address for former tenant and did not have any physical or environmental conditions 6. Explain why you believe the difficulty that requires the variance was not “self-created.” Its a pre-existing condition of the property, that it has no off street parking. STAFF REPORT - PLZBA20200061 Applicant: Adam Wilke Zone: B-2 Project description: PLZBA20200061 – 561-565 Congress St. (101.80-2-44) – Special Use Permit & Area Variance – B-2 Zone Adam Wilke proposes converting existing commercial spaces into three apartments.

Additional units require an area variance for a parking deficiency (1 space required per unit) Staff Notes:  Applicant has been to the ZBA within the last two years with a similar proposal, which was approved  Site is short distance RPI and nearby other student housing sites  NYSDOT removed on-street parking on Rt 2/Congress St during redesign years ago  Steep grade creates engineering technicalities for creating off-street parking on site  Type II SEQR, no vote required Per § § 285-55F(1)(b), an area variance is required Per § 285-58C(7) a special use permit is required for a residence on the first floor AREA VARIANCE I move to approve/deny the Area Variance based on the following findings of fact: 1.

Describe your application as proposed. Revert Ground Floor Store Fronts into Residential Units, Construct Eight (8) Car Parking Lot and Landscape Courtyard w/ Patio. 2. Explain why you believe that your project will not create substantial injury to the value of the surrounding property values. By reverting the existing store fronts into dwellings units, they will be a benefit to the surrounding neighborhood. The long term vacancy of the store units casts a negative connotation on the neighborhood that the buildings are derelict and uncared for. Once façade of the store fronts are reconstructed to match the upper portion of the building, the occupied dwelling units will then be seen as a functional component of the neighborhood. 3. Explain why you believe that your project meets the landscaping and screening criteria established for Special Use Permits, if applicable. The sidewalks were reconstructed in 2006 and are still in excellent condition. The façade of the existing store fronts will be reconstructed to match the upper portion of the building. There are no locations to provide landscaping. 4. Explain why you believe that your project will not impair the public health, safety, convenience, aesthetics, or environmental quality of the surrounding neighborhood. Occupied dwelling units and a façade that matches the upper portion of the building contribute to a functional neighborhood. Troy ZBA – Online Special Use Permit Application Applicant Information Applicant Type  Owner Applicant Name Adam Wilke Applicant Address 205 Krumkill Rd.

Describe your application as proposed. I would like to convert the store to a 1 bedroom home/apartment. 2. Explain why you believe that your variance request will not create an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or be a detriment to nearby properties if it is granted. It is a residential neighborhood and I believe the house/apartment will be better suited to the area than a store. Furthermore, with the luxury condominium and apartments going up in the area I believe more affordable rental housing will be appreciated by the residents. 3. Can the benefit you seek by virtue of this variance application be achieved by revising your proposal? If not, explain why there are no other alternatives. The location of the store is not ideal, on the next block over there are several empty store fronts. Due to this, I do not believe a store would do well in that location. 4. Explain why you believe the proposed variance is not substantial. We will convert the space into a one bedroom apartment for 1-2 people. I believe this will better serve the neighborhood than a closed, unsuccessful, empty, vacant store. Vacant buildings substract from the neighborhood, the store sat empty for over 5 years. 5. Explain why you believe the proposed variance will not have an adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood. I will invest a substantial amount of money to make the property better and more appealing. One less empty vacant building is always a plus. 6. Explain why you believe the difficulty that requires the variance was not “self-created.” The store sat empty for a long time as it was not well suited to that location and the small dimensions of the property. As a one bedroom apartment with reasonable rent, it will be rented in a heartbeat. STAFF REPORT - PLZBA20200071 Applicant: Collar City Cold Pressed Zone: INST Project description: PLZBA20200071 135 2nd St (101.61-9-10) – Use and Area Variances – INST Zone Collar City Cold Pressed seeks a use variance to create a retail space in an INST zone and an area variance for a parking deficiency (0 spaces proposed, 6 required) Staff Notes:  Has been a commercial space for years, most recently a florist and studio  Commercial space neighbors this site to the north (massage therapist)  Corner lot is on edge of INST zone, intended for Russel Sage (while not owned by the college), use would be allowed across the street on Division and kiddy-corner on 2nd St  Parking usage of this site unlikely to have significant impact on neighborhood Per § 285-66B a use variance is required Per § 285-91 an area variance is required USE VARIANCE I move to approve/deny the Use Variance based on the following findings of fact: 1.
