Re: Best Western Ai rport Inn Si te Pl an
The Dutchess County Department of Planning has received a copy of the site
plan application for the Best Western Airport Inn. After review and analysiss
this Department makes the following comments on the proposed site plan:
This application proposes an additional building with motel units for the
property located on the west side of Route 376. A restaurant and motel are
existing land uses on this site.
Consideration should;'be given to a planted area between the roadway and the
parking lot. Low evergreen shrubs could shield the view of the parking lot
from the roadway. This type of screening would reduce the glare of vehicle
headlights from vehicles in the parking area to the roadway. Such landscaped
screening would also emphasize the channelization of designated entrance/exit
points and improve the overall quality of the development.
An important consideration in this proposal is the proximity of the Dutchess
County Ai rport. I have forwarded a copy of the site plan to the Dutchess
County Department of Aviation for their comments. if anys on airport-related
impacts.
The Dutchess County Department of Planning does not presume to base its
decision on the legalities or illegalities of the facts or procedures
enumerated in subject zoning action.
