SENIOR HOUSING OVERLAY DISTRICT
BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Poughkeepsie as follows:
1. Article IV of Chapter 210 of the Town of Poughkeepsie Zoning Code entitled "Residence District
Regulations" is hereby amended as follows:
~21O-20
Senior Housing Overlay District (SHOD)
A) District Purpose. This overlay district is to encourage the provision of housing opportunities
for elderly residents who do not require nursing or alternate care housing. Such housing
may include Senior Housing - Age Restricted, Senior Housing -Assisted Living Facility or, a
combination of both, and would be located in appropriate business and commercially zoned
areas that would benefit from mixed use development. As determined by the Town Board
the inclusion of subsidized and unsubsidized age restricted multi-family residential
development would be compatible with and complimentary to office and business uses which
may be developed from a single parcel of land or from land accumulated for contemporaneous
development of residential and non-residential uses (collectively the "Parent Parcel"). A
Senior Housing Overlay District designation may be permitted, at the sole discretion of the
Town Board as a Zoning Map amendment subject to such additional terms and conditions as
the Town Board may require, for parcels at locations within the; i) Highway Business (BH)
District or; ii) the Office Research (OR) District; or iii) both the Office Research (OR)
District and the Neighborhood Highway Business (BNH) District which meet the General
Requirements and Design Criteria set forth herein.
B) General Reauirements. An application for a Senior Housing Overlay District designation
shall be subject to the following general requirements:
1) Location. A Senior Housing Overlay District designation shall only be permitted as an
overlay district for property located within the Highway Business (B- H) District, or the
Office Research (OR) District, or within both the Office Research and Neighborhood
Highway Business (BNH) districts.
2) Minimum land area. The minimum land area of the Parent Parcel shall be as follows:
a) In the Highway Business District no less than ten (10) contiguous acres of land.
b) In the Office Research District and Combined OR-BNH districts no less than two (2)
contiguous acres of land.
1
I;
3) Minimum lot frontage. The minimum lot frontage of the Parent Parcel shall be as
follows:
a) In the Highway Business District no less than three hundred fifty (350) feet of
continuous frontage on a New York State Highway.
b) In the Office Research District and Combined OR-BNH districts no less than three
hundred (300) feet of continuous frontage on a New York State Highway.
4) Access. The site shall have direct access in-fee to a New York State Highway. Said
access shall be capable of being used, or improved for use, as the primary ingress and
egress to the proposed senior residence development.
5) Services. The site shall, in the opinion of the Town Board, be conveniently located with
respect to retail, medical and public transportation services.
6) Utilities. The site must be served by town central sewage disposal and water supply
facilities of sufficient capacity to service the proposed development. Unless determined
to be infeasible by the Planning Board, all utilities, including electric and
communications lines shall be installed underground.
C) Site Plan Approval. The development of any Senior Housing Overlay District project (herein
"SHOD Project") is subject to site plan and/or subdivision approval by the Planning Board
after Town Board approval of the Senior Housing Overlay District.
D) Desie-n Criteria. The following Design Criteria shall apply to any SHDO Project.
1) Area and bulk requirements for any lot subdivided as part of a SHOD project. In the
event of such subdivision as is set forth herein, the dimensional, area, and setbacks
requirements of this Chapter shall not be applicable as between the individual
subdivided SHOD parcels, but shall be maintained as to perimeter setbacks applicable to
the Parent Parcel at the boundary with adjacent parcels of land that are not part of the
SHOD project being built within the Parent Parcel. The overall mixed use project in a
Senior Housing Overlay District, disregarding the individual lot lines created by the
subdivision, shall otherwise comply with the dimensional, area, setbacks and parking
requirements of this Chapter provided that no part of any building shall be closer than
15 feet to any other building or property line within such subdivided Parent Parcel.

2) Maximum lot coverage and impervious surface for any development on any lot shall be as
follow:
a) For projects in the Highway Business District, the Office Research District, and the
Combined OR-BNH districts:
(i) Maximum lot coverage shall be 25%.
(ii) Maximum impervious surface coverage shall be 75%.
3) Maximum residential density.
a) For projects in the Highway Business District:
(i) Ten (10) dwelling units per acre computed on the area of the parcel proposed
for the residential units of the SHOD project.
b) For projects in the Office Research District and Combined OR-BNH districts:
(i) Ten (10) dwelling units per acre. As an incentive for development of
commercial non-retail space this density shall be increased as follows:
1. For each 10,000 gross square feet of non-residential non-retail building
area two and one-half (2.5) additional dwelling units per acre computed
on the total Parent Parcel.
1. For projects that incorporate parking within no less than 70% of the ground (i.e. 1.t) floor area of any building the height
limitation may be increased by 15 feet or 1 story.
3
2. The total dwelling units per acre for any development project, including
the base dwelling units and any incentive dwelling units, shall not exceed
22 dwelling units per acre computed on the total Parent Parcel.
3. Where the Town Board approves an increase in the residential density in
accordance with this section the Board shall require the filing of a
covenant or such other document as may be required by the Director of
Municipal Development and approved by the Town Attorney to ensure
that the non-residential non-retail building portion of the development is
not later converted to a residential or a retail use, provided however that
such restriction may be modified by subsequent approval of the Town
Board upon application or request for such modification, or as may
otherwise be changed by zoning law amendment or other local law
adopted by the Town Board of the Town of Poughkeepsie..
4) Parking. Minimum parking shall be provided at a ratio of 0.75 spaces per dwelling unit.
Parking for any non-residential portion of any development shall be established by the
Planning Board pursuant to ~210-92 of the Town Code. For the purpose of enhancing
design flexibility, including the enhancement of the visual appearance of a mixed use
project in a Senior Housing Overlay District, and for the purpose of reducing the amount
of lot area devoted to surface parking, the creation of structured parking in parking
garages is encouraged, and parking on any part of the Parent Parcel may be used to meet
the parking requirements for any other components of a mixed use project.
5) Landscaping and landscaped buffer Area. Not less than 25% of the total gross lot area
shall be landscaped in accordance with ~210-80. As part of the required landscaping a
landscaped buffer area of not less than thirty (30) feet in depth shall be provided along
the front yard, side yard, and rear yard of any lot, and not less than five (5%) percent of
the interior (i.e. non-perimeter) area of any parking lot shall be landscaped. Roads,
pathways, and sidewalks providing access through a buffer are permitted. The minimum
landscaped area required in this paragraph may be satisfied by the creation of such
minimum landscaped area on the adjoining right-of.way of a public highway owned and
maintained by the New York State Department of Transportation. All setbacks shall be
computed for the Parent Parcel.
4
6) Sidewalks. Sidewalks shall be 6 feet wide and provide circulation between principal
structures and accessory uses and adjacent properties as deemed appropriate by the
Planning Board.
7) Lighting. Lighting shall be in accordance with ~21O-81 and the standards for residential
district lighting in ~210-81(E).
8) Signage. Signs shall be in accordance with ~210-125.
9) Architectural Consistency. All principal buildings shall be architecturally designed to be
consistent with the Town of Poughkeepsie guidelines to the maximum extent possible.
Compliance with all architectural standards shall be subject to Planning Board review
and approval in accordance with ~210-152(A)(10).
E) Procedure. The review and approval of an application for a Senior Housing Overlay District
designation shall be as follows:
F) Town Board Review. An application for a Senior Housing Overlay District designation shall
be submitted to the Town Board. Upon receipt of an application, the Town Board shall notify
the applicant of the place, date, and time of the meeting at which the application is to be
considered, and shall refer the application to the Planning Board for review and
recommendation. The applicant or the applicant's representatives shall be present at
meetings of the Town Board at which the application is to be considered.
G) Planning Board review. Within sixty-two (62) days of receipt of the application from the
Town Board the Planning Board shall make a recommendation to the Town Board as to
whether, in the opinion of the Planning Board, the application supports a Senior Housing
Overlay District designation. The applicant or the applicant's representatives shall be
present at the meetings of the Planning Board at which the application is to be considered.
Failure of the Planning Board to provide a recommendation within the specified time shall
be deemed a recommendation to approve the application.
H) SEQRA review. No application for a Senior Housing Overlay District designation shall be
complete until a lead agency is established, and a Negative Declaration has been issued or a
Draft Environmental Impact Statement as been accepted as complete by the lead agency as
satisfactory with respect to scope, content and adequacy.
5
1) Town Board action. Within sixty-two (62) days of receipt of a complete application, the Town
Board shall hold a public hearing on the application for a Senior Housing Overlay District
designation. Notice of the public hearing shall be published in the official newspaper at least
ten (10) days prior to the date set for the public hearing. A public hearing on the application
shall also be coordinated with any public hearing on a Draft Environmental Impact
Statement. The Town Board may provide that the hearing be further advertised in such
manner as it deems most appropriate for full public consideration of the application,
including the prominent placement of one or more signs on the premises that is the subject of
the application notifying interested persons that an application for a Senior Housing Overlay
District designation is under consideration by the Board. All notices shall include the name
of the application, the location of the site requested for designation, and the date, place, time
and subject of the public hearing at which the application will be reviewed. Such notice shall
not be required for adjourned dates. Within sixty-two (62) days of the close of the public
hearing the Town Board shall act to approve or disapprove the request for a Senior Housing
Overlay District designation. The time within which the Board must render its decision may
be extended for such additional time as the Board may deem reasonable or necessary to
render a decision. The failure of the Board to take action within 62 days of the close of the
public hearing, or within such additional time period as may be agreed to or established by
the Board shall not result, and shall not be construed to result, in a default approval of the
application. The Board may, if it feels necessary to fully protect the public health, safety and
welfare of the community, attach to the designation any reasonable conditions or
requirements for the applicant to meet. The decision of the Board shall be filed in the office of
the Town Clerk within five (5) business days of the date such decision is rendered and a copy
thereof shall be mailed to the applicant.
J) Site plan approval. Site Plan review and approval by the Planning Board as provided in
Article XIII of this Chapter shall be required prior to commencement of any site work or the
issuance of a building permit. Changes to a previously approved site plan shall also require
site plan approval.
K) Subdivision approval. If the development proposal involves the subdivision of land as defined
in this Chapter and Chapter 177, the subdivision approval pursuant to Chapter 177 shall be
required prior to commencement of any site work or the issuance of a building permit.
Changes to a previously approved subdivision plat shall also require re-subdivision approval.
A mixed use project in a Senior Housing Overlay District may be subdivided into two or more
parcels, provided that a reciprocal easement agreement approved by the Planning Board as
6
part of the site plan approval process is executed and recorded reqUIrmg that such
subdivided parcels, for so long as the mixed use project in a Senior Housing Overlay District
exists, function as one integrated parcel for ingress and egress, parking, internal circulation,
water service, drainage, sanitary sewage disposal, and storm sewers.
L) Conformity with district designation required. The Planning Board shall not approve any
site plan and/or subdivision that is not in substantial conformance with the Senior Housing
Overlay District designation granted by the Town Board or with any conditions impose upon
such designation.
M) Time Limits. If construction work on the proposed Senior Housing development is not
commenced within the later of three (3) years from the date of the Town Board approval of
the Senior Housing Overlay District or within three (3) years from the date of Planning
Board site plan and/or subdivision approvals, and completed within three (3) years of the
date of such commencement, then the SHOD designation shall be null and void and all rights
and approvals and permits therein shall terminate unless the Town Board, for good cause,
authorizes an extension of the overlay district approval. For purposes of this section the
commencement of construction shall be measured from the date a Building Permit is issued
by the Town of Poughkeepsie. Additionally, and for purposes of this section, the completion
of construction shall be the date on which a Certificate of Occupancy is issued by the Town of
Poughkeepsie.
