Zoning code changes -Malcom To: Supervisor Rilchiard Thurston and the Town, of Wappinger Town IBoaird Date-- IMaiy 3, 2022 Subject- Proposedbode Amendments to Section 240.23"Exterlor Lighting" oftheZoning L,aw Based on concerns raised at the Town Board meetings during review of the Iproposedl arnendments, to the "Exteri'Ior Lighfing" section of the Zoning Laiw regarding pole Iheiight ireguiireiments, we are Ipiroviiding thH mernorandurn, to give the Board additionM finformation regarding the reasoning behind the prop�osec amendments. The, proposed amendments to, the lightfing regulations are necessary to Ikeep the Ila w current with the use o LED lighting- The amendments to SeCtion 240-23F of the Town's Zoning Law would irequ.uiire a rnaximurn polls height of 15 feet- u rrently,the Zoning Law does not(have a required pole height. In the past,iit was,considerec better to provide higher p('fles, to, cover amore area, wiith, few lights. The use of Ih,igher poles imay res,ullt in fem lights at the site-, however, the amount of glare and Iliight `s,piHage" t(.,) other properties, is greater. As poles gel higher, the Iliight gets further dilspers,ed on the site but also tends to cause excessive glare, which is onl) increased iitlh ILEIB Highting. Ultimately, it may iresu,ullt iin fewer light 1p(.fles, but iit results iin more light Ipolllutiion. The colllor temperature of the ILED light and type of fixt�ure also, contribute to, this, glare Tissue au7dl would b,E regulated under the prop(.6ed arnendments- The proposed pole heights, color temperature, and type of fixturE requirements have been deelloped in relation to, each other t(.,) reduce Iliight p(.'fllution froi-n pr(.')posed s]tE lighting. The, amendments wound also irequire, a photometric lighting plan, that would analyze the proposec lighting specific; to the site and provide the iinformation necessary to make sure that the site its, not over cm under Iiia. The amendments also contain a, provision that would allow the IPlaininiing Board to waive any ofthe requirements, including pole height restrictions, If Tit the Planning Boardl determines that Ibetteir site design (.)i safety can, be achileved wiith, lighting that does snot comply wiith, the requirements- This would alto the Board to consider a higher pole height for a, sine, iif needed, without requiring the Applicant to, seek a, vainance- We have also reviewed the requirements,of surrounding municipalities to give the Board more iinforimation or how other rnunici'Ipalitles are regulating pole heights.

Items for Special Consideration/New Business 1. Lightstar Rezone Petition The Lightstar people came to discuss the use of Solar Panels off Myers Corners Road just east of Laerdahl. The properties would need to be rezoned or make it an allowable use. The zoning is different among the surrounding parcels. Councilman Beale supports the application along with Supervisor Thurston who cited similar uses in Japan. Councilman Beale suggested recommending it to the planning board. If it were rezoned to Office park, then it would require the least amount of SEQRA review. Sam said there is no expectation to replace the panels. Councilman Casella asked where else is this done. Sam said that they have done solar farms but this a new venture with regard to doing with agriculture. Councilman Casella asked about the destruction of the view shed along Myers Corners road. Sam said they would work hand in hand with the architect. Ian spoke to answer where there Carver, Massachusetts with Hay, he cited two locations for grazing with cattle. He said they are looking to do this with butternut squash and berries. In addition, they have a fenced in panels with grazing surrounding it at Grafton, Massachusetts. The goal is to joint venture with farmers to keep them profitable. Councilman Phillips also expressed his support with a recommendation to the planning board. Attorney Horan suggested a$5,000 escrow. He suggested establishing lead agency to the Town Board. The Town Clerk will circulate a form created by the Town Planner, Malcolm. The applicant will make a presentation to Planning Board for their comment. 2.

Section 240-23 shall be amended to read as follows: o C 0 § 240-23 Exterior lighting. y A. Intent and purpose. The intent and purpose of this section is to provide standards for outdoor lighting in order to maintain and protect the scenic and aesthetic character of ti the Town; to encourage conservation of energy while providing safety, utility and security; to minimize glare; to avoid impacts on and to protect the privacy of nearby residences; to reduce atmospheric light pollution; to ensure that development fits into its surroundings rather than being superimposed upon the existing environment; and N to enhance the Town's nighttime ambience and character. The following standards shall apply to all of the zoning districts in the Town. U B. All exterior lighting. All exterior lighting in connection with all buildings, signs or other uses shall be directed away from adjoining streets and properties, and shall have such shielding as will prevent unreasonable or objectionable glare observable from a such streets or properties. All fixtures shall be downlit, full cut-off, and dark-sky compliant as identified and updated by the International Dark-sky Association. J 7E U 0 C. ATM lighting. Unless accessory to a bank, all ATM banking machines shall be installed indoors so that the New York State ATM Safety Act design requirements 0 shall not be applicable. The Planning Board remains responsible for ensuring that a outdoor ATM banking machines accessory to a bank do not cause glare or other T_ unwanted light spillage affecting residential areas and uses. o N D. Hours of lighting. Hours of lighting may be limited by the Planning Board in acting on CO W any site development plan. All nonessential lighting shall be turned off after business hours, leaving only the necessary lighting for site security, which shall be reduced to E the minimum level necessary. "Nonessential lighting" applies to display, aesthetic, parking and sign lighting. Motion-sensor security lighting may be used to promote safety and reduce the amount of night lighting in the Town, as determined by the N Planning Board. It4 E. Intensity of lighting. No use shall produce glare so as to cause illumination beyond � the property on which it is located in excess of 0.0 footcandles or lumens at the C property line. Parking lots shall have an average lighting level at or below one E footcandle. High-security areas shall have lighting levels of no more than five footcandles, and two to five footcandles is the suitable range. Footcandle levels U greater that 5.0 are considered excessive and shall be avoided. N F. Pole heights. In all districts, the maximum pole height for any exterior light fixture 0 shall not exceed 15 feet as measured from the ground U Q 3 Packet Pg.33 6.3.a C M G. Lighting plan specifications. A photometric lighting plan shall be provided for all - proposed lighting or for the retro-fitting of existing light fixtures with Light Emitting o Diode (LED)fixtures. The photometric plan shall provide specifications for all lighting y proposed. The color temperature of all LED lighting shall be 3,000 Kelvin (K) or less. The lighting specifications shall also include Backlight, Uplight and Glare (BUG) ratings for all proposed fixtures. ti N H. Adjustment of lighting levels. The Planning Board may require that dimmers be installed on a site's lighting, in which case the Zoning Administrator shall have ongoing jurisdiction over the site's lighting and the authority to require that the N property's owner or operator lessen the illumination of the site if the Zoning Q Administrator finds that the site is not in compliance with its approved site plan and/or is otherwise inconsistent with the intent, purposes or other standards of this section. L, I. Gas stations. The standards contained in this section shall apply to all uses in the 4) Town, including gas stations. In approving a lighting plan for a gas station, the a Planning Board shall take into account the context of the gas station and its relationship to all residential development which has a view of the gas station in order J to reasonably minimize adverse visual impact of the gas station on said residential o development. The Planning Board shall also consider the context of the surrounding Q land uses and the anticipated future surrounding land uses when determining the 0 appropriate lighting level of the gas station. Island canopy ceiling fixtures shall be a recessed into the canopy ceiling so that the bottom of the fixture is flush with the T- ceiling. Any illuminated part of the canopy other than the underside lighting shall be N CD considered to be part of the total amount of permitted site signage. N CO W W J. Prohibitions.

We previously provided ;n comments on this proposed law in a letter dated December 7, 2021.The law has since been revised, especially Q regarding electric vehicle charging stations. _ U COMMENTS = We find the revised EV charging station section to be confusingly worded. If we understand correctly, E applicants who wish to install charging stations will be required to add an additional 10%to their off-street Q parking requirement.They would be required to install conduit at the time of parking lot construction, banking J the additional spaces if they intend to actually install the stations later (which would preclude them from using that space for anything else). If we are correct in our interpretation this provision would serve to discourage o charging stations by substantially increasing the applicant's parking burden.The provision also seems to J 0. indicate that the applicant would be required to lay conduit under the Iandbanked area, even though that area 0 would presumably remain undeveloped. Finally, as we noted in our last letter, the signage requirement should Q specify that signage is only required once charging stations are actually installed. We recognize and appreciate that members of the Board have concerns about governmental overreach with N EV charging station-related requirements. We support local laws that require or encourage laying the N groundwork for future installation of these stations, particularly in multifamily housing developments, for two W basic reasons: W 0 - Avoiding disruption down the line. Charging stations are not a priority for many developers right now, o It- who don't see a lot of immediate demand. In 10 years,though, demand is likely to be much higher, N N and it may become necessary to add them.That can be an expensive and disruptive process when the N parking lot is already there, since it may involve trenching, resurfacing, etc. We believe it is in the best interests of our residents that local governments, who generally take a longer view than developers, head off those future headaches by encouraging conduit to be laid during parking lot construction. We are not insistent that the actual stations be installed right away(stations are relatively expensive to install, but conduit is not). We simply believe that it is good planning to lay the groundwork now for Q future installation. - Equal access. As EVs become more popular, it will be straightforward for single-family homeowners to install chargers in their garages. Not so for residents in condos or apartments. Given that residents in multifamily housing are generally lower income than single family homeowners,this could result in a 85 Civic Center Plaza,Suite 107,Poughkeepsie,New York 12601•(845)486-3600•Fax(845)486-3610 www.dutchessny.gov Packet Pg 41 6.3.c future in which wealthier people drive EVs and lower-income people still rely on gasoline, even as EVs become more affordable than gas cars, because they cannot charge at home. We believe there is a strong case for municipalities to ensure that future residents have the opportunity to own a cleaner, cheaper car regardless of their housing type.That's why our primary focus is on charging stations in multifamily residential projects. RECOMMENDATION J 0 The Department recommends that the board condition approval of the law on removal of the 10% increase in o the required parking minimum for developers that wish to install charging stations. At a minimum, we y recommend that the Planning Board be given the authority to waive this requirement, especially for > multifamily developments,where parking spots can be assigned and a tenant with an EV can be assigned a spot with a charger. r� N To encourage the inclusion of conduit for charging stations in appropriate projects and to clarify requirements for developers that do decide to include them,we suggest that the Town replace the proposed language with two short additions to the code: �t N - A section encouraging developers, especially of multifamily housing, to consider including conduit during parking lot construction (perhaps under §240-86 P, Underground Utilities). Q - A section describing requirements for signage, bollards, and other technical requirements for the clear tj and safe operation of stations. _ m Voting and reporting requirements: If the Board acts contrary to our recommendation,the law requires that it Q do so by a majority plus one of the full membership of the Board and that it notify us of the reasons for its decision.

E Q Exterior Lighting section: J 1. Dark Sky compliance U 0 We suggest that the Board emend §240-23 B to include language requiring that lighting fixtures be dark-sky J compliant, ex.: o Q All exterior lighting.All exterior lighting in connection with all buildings, signs or other uses shall be directed away from adjoining streets and properties, and shall have such shielding as will prevent 00 N unreasonable or objectionable glare observable from such streets or properties.All fixtures should be o downlit,full cut-off, and dark-sky compliant. Cn W W 2. Defining terms 0 We suggest that the terms "highway" and "local road" in §240-23 1 should be defined, or the language M altered, as these terms could be general or refer to ownership, functional class, etc. N W N Electric Vehicle Charging Stations section: m Charging stations are more important for certain kinds of uses, and we encourage the Board to build appropriate flexibility into the code that allows for that distinction. Regular day-to-day EV charging (as opposed to the high- ;a speed charging needed for long trips) is more like charging a cell phone than it is like getting gas.The places we Q charge our phones (generally the places we spend the longest stretches of time) are where car chargers are the most important. Charging stations are likely to be a necessity at multifamily housing complexes in the future, but 85 Civic Center Plaza,Suite 107,Poughkeepsie,New York 12601•(845)486-3600•Fax(845)486-3610 www.dutchessny.gov Packet Pg.43 remain a convenience at retail outlets, for example. 3. Reduce threshold for housing We suggest that the Board require charging stations at smaller multifamily housing complexes as well, basing it either on parking lot size or number of units. In a local example, the Town of New Paltz requires installation of stations for any project proposing three or more units (see §14Q-52aB(2)(n)). _ J r- 4. Allow the Planning Board to include charging spots in the required parking minimum where appropriate o We suggest including a provision allowing the Planning Board to waive the requirement that designated o charging station spots must be supplemental to the code-required minimum, permitting the Board to •0 consider them part of the minimum when they deem it appropriate. We also suggest that this waiver be specifically considered for existing and new multifamily housing complexes,where the applicant can show to the Board's satisfaction that the waiver will not have a negative impact (ex: parking spaces are assigned to ti tenants and a tenant with an EV is assigned a spot with a charger). We note that this suggestion differs from 04 the waiver power described in §240-96 F, in which the waived parking must be set aside for possible future development. 0 et N 5. Signage only needed when stations are actually installed m We suggest emending the final sentence of the section to read: "Spaces with installed charging stations shall Q be clearly identified with appropriate signage." v a� RECOMMENDATION =a The Department recommends that the Board rely upon its own study of the facts in the case with due m consideration of the above comments.

It o resulted in a 3-inch flood throughout our downstairs living space which includes our bathroom and our E garage. additionally, our entire property including our lawn, our garden, and our driveway became victim to v 0 the water's destruction.Camo Pollution, the Police Department and the Fire [department were called = immediately after noticing the major problem and needed an hour and a half to completely shut off the ° Q water valves in the neighborhood. 8y that time, the flood had already done its damage. With the help of Q neighbors, including Wappingers Councilman Al Casella, hours were spent cleaning, removing the o unwanted water and in attempting to dry out our house. State Farm, our insurance company, was also N called and they recommended us to use Servpro on Monday, April 2 to fully clean out the damaged items N and to prevent the spread of mold. The Servpro team needed to immediately demolish and take away all of w our finished flooring and remove our radiators. They also needed to cut out the lower two feet of all of our first floor walls. On Tuesday, April 27t"`, they came back to finish the demolition and to install 30 industrial ` fans that were supposed to be in our house until Saturday. However, by the end of the day on Tuesday, the N main water pipe broke again within feet of the previously repaired pipe of days earlier and the nightmare was relived. We had to clean up all of the water once again and ServPro needed to return to address the E same flooding issues both inside and outside of the house. Clean up and construction has pushed our L family into living upstairs for nearly 3 months and our day to day lives have been immeasurably disrupted. a� We received $15,134.18 from our insurance company for the indoor reparations but after subtracting our deductible which was $2,781.00, we received a total of$12,353.18 to reestablish our downstairs. 0 Cour entrusted contractor completed' the job to our satisfaction with a total cost of$19,780. � m As of today, we have paid our contractor $16,500, which included the $12,353.18 that was received from �° State Farm. The remaining balance came from out of our own pocket. Subtracting the $12,353.18 from our Contractor's bill has left a difference of$7,426.82. E 2 L E V Q Packet Pg.60 6.5,a In addition to the interior damages,we also need to get our driveway replaced as it is now distorted and has become a safety hazard. State farm has given us $6,250 to have a company begin the job and they will N give us another$6,250 after the work has been fully completed. However, the two estimates that we were given came to a total of$14,000 to complete the job, so we ask for this $1,500 difference as well. Q E Our contractor and his crew did terrific work getting our house repaired by the damage caused by v the o separate floodings.As we were not responsible for this destructive setback,we believe that we p should not have to pay any money out of pocket. The 2 flood incidents wracked havoc to our family's day a to day functioning, and we look forward to putting the last 3 stressful months behind us. Many hours were needed to get our contents back in the house and to get back to a feeling of normalcy. The disruption, Co simply put, has led to a trying, stressful 3 months for our family. C Q We request a net total of$8,927.82 from the Town of Wappingers and Camo pollution to cover the full cost � of restoring our downstairs living room, bathroom and the driveway. o L Q We have included all the paperwork from our insurance company and contractor.
