MAYOR ANNOUNCEMENT--BIG V SHOP RITE:
Mayor Price announced a change in the agenda, to
first
take up the decision
of the Board of Trustees on the application of Shop Rite to
build on,the Starlight property. He stated that all,(the members of
the Board are aware of the implications and this has been reviewed
and re-reviewedr, , ,
, .r
Trustee Bogardus stated that it would be easy for Jiim as
an ex-Planning Board member to vote against Shop Rite, but he
thought it was,, tj-jpe the Village should be on a positive concern
for its senior citizens and taxes. Trustee Bogardus offered the
following resolution:,.^
Where, ns, the’6oard of trustees of the Village 3f'drotdn-oh-Hiulsovt, NVjv Vcvh
haWng held e pul.lie hearing on Saturday, July 16, 1977'£8.'consider the
application^on behalf of Big V Supermarkets, Inc. for the granting of a
special permit to conduct retail sales lat the property designated on the
village tax'mops as Section 2, Block ed, Lots' i-E and J*art of 1-G-l in accord
ance with provisions of Section 3.14.4 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Board of Trustees of the Village of
Croton-on-Hudson, New York hereby approves said application subject to the
following conditions:
SEP. 1 2 1977
4yv»6 csfj\~yy Pi.’tfuc.

New York State Department of Transportation.
2. There shall only be a single free standing sign which may be used
TUfi.
further south to the location
r
i
to identify the shopping center, and which shall en compass any further
development on the remainder of the site
The intent being that
if and when the remainder of the site is "developed there shall be
only one free standing sign for the entire 13 4 AC Parcel,
size, height, and location of such sign shall be as approved by
I
The
i
the Village of Croton Planning Board, and be in accordance with the

i
SEP. 1 2 197T Trustee Bencivenga seconded the motion and the vote was
as follows:
AYES:
NAYS:
Trustees Bogardus, Bencivenga and Hoffman,
Trustee Gabrielsen
Mayor Price stated "the primary reasons for approval were:
new tax ratable coming at a time when we need new tax ratables
badly; a long term trend that the village seems to have developed
is that of saying "no" to all comers so maybe it?s time to stop
saying no, even if we do feel that the land in question could have
been put to better use. And perhaps more than anything else,
the Mayor declared, we have our share of families who, for a
variety of reasons, are living on a tight budget or a fixed income
and a fast turnover, highly competitive store will benefit that
portion of Croton's residents, so perhaps it is time for us to
realize that we are not just a village made up of many different
kinds of people, coming from all walks of life, with substantial
reserves of talent; but perhaps it's time to realize that the
makeup of our population also cuts across all economic boundaries,
and that the. existence of Shoprite here will be a reflection of
the needs of some portion of our residents."
Mayor Price continued, stating that for those people who worked
for the denial of the permit, be assured that your arguments were
not rejected. They were considered quite carefully, and for the
most part were considered valid. The arguments for granting
the permit carried more weight with this Board. "Working with
this Board is an experience. It is truly an outstanding group;
to hear me say this surprises some of them, because in the last
two months, discussions have at times been acrimonious. On
individual issues, we are seldom in complete agreement and on
one issue, we are in total agreement, that is, that we arc doing
the best job we can to make Croton a better place to live."
There was a discussion of the conditions involved with the
developing of the property called for in the resolution.
It was regularly moved by Trustee Bogardus, seconded by
Trustee Hoffman and unanimously carried that the matter of the
Shoprite development be remanded to the Planning Board for considera
tion, particularly with respect to the Village Board's resolu
tion requiring additional rests and rulings on the part of the
Planning Board.
PUBLIC HEARING ON LOCAL LAW PROVIDING FOR CONTROL OF USE OF UNLICENSED
MOTOR VEHICLES:
Village Manager Cameron announced that the proposed local law
public hearing notice had been published in the local newspaper
on September 1, 1977 and copies of the proposed law had been
circularized to the Board members.
Trustee Hoffman summarized the local law's provisions of the
control of the use of unlicensed motor vehicles noting this does
not include "mopeds", garden tractors, and lawn mowers.
Mr. W. Fanelli stated he took exception to one part of the law
which applies to using a vehicle on one's own property. He felt
this was too limiting for another law. Trustee Hoffman stated this
does not prohibit anyone from operating a vehicle on his own
property. It onlyhas a restriction as to the noise or annoyance to
neighbors.
Exhibit B

CORRESPONDENCE (continued)
—Letter frcm Barbara Goldberg, President of Croton Council On The Arts, Inc.
asking if the Croton Council On the Arts might become involved in early planning
discussions of the River Club project in the event the developers are successful
with their plans to build.
Mayor Bogardus - this letter should be kept with the River Club file and if the
project gets started, consider it at that time.
Trustee Pohlmann - A copy of this should also be sent to the Planning Board at the
appropriate time.
Trustee Fiorito - This would have been another area where we could have looked for
funds for the coimunity center, outside of this building.
Letter from Paul Feiner, Westchester County Board of Legislators
Advising that he has proposed that the county adopt legislation which would give
municipal officials six months advance rvotice of bus route cutbacks, prior to
eliminating or cutting the route. He also has proposed that the county create
a 17 member transportation marketing advisory council that would be responsible
for monitoring county efforts to prenote bus routes and suggesting ways to
advertise the benefits of mass transit to potential riders. He asked our support
on this proposal .
Trustee Pohlmann - suggested a memo be sent to Bob Hazard advising him that we would
tJ) be concerned if there is any cut back in services and asking that he keep us
apprised of any changes.
Trustee Giglio - an inquiry should be made as to whether or not there is an advisory
board that does have control, or can act as a sounding board for the people in the
Village to contact.
Trustee Fiorito - we could have looked for a little help when we lost the service
to the Croton North Station, and we did try to get the county to come in with an
additional loop around the Village. If we had an advisory council it would have
been helpful to us.
Letter fron John J. Gochman, representing Big V Supermarkets
requesting a reinstatement of the special permit issued to the Big V in May, 1977,
and asking that it be extended to include the proposed additions which are set
forth in the amended site plan submitted to the planning board.

requirements of the zoning law, together with a check for $50.00.
Mayor Bogardus - Mr. Gochman should be notified as to what is required.

Special Permit Use- Amendment for Site Development Plan
(Croton-on-Hudson Village Code § Chapter 230, Article X.
Special Permit Uses)
Re:
ShopRite Supermarkets Inc.
460 South Riverside Avenue
Section 79.17, Block 2, Lot 2
Dear Members of the Board:
On behalf of the applicant ShopRite Supermarkets, Inc. (“ShopRite”) we submit
this application for a re-issuance and modification of a Special Permit Use in order to
permit the continued operation of a Retail Store (supermarket) including the addition of
approximately 20,844 sf. of new gross floor area at the above referenced location.
ShopRite currently operates a supermarket at the location, within a C-2 (General
Commercial) zone, pursuant to a Special Permit Use which was originally issued in 1977
and amended in 1985.
History of the Special Permit Use on the Premises
A Special Permit Use to operate a supermarket at the site was originally granted
by Resolution of the Village Board on September 22,1977, which Permit expired on May
24,1980. See, 1977 Special Permit Use approval, attached. The expired Special Permit
Use was reinstated and expanded by Resolution of the Village Board dated May 20,1985,
which Permit, by its own terms, ran for a period of five (5) years, expiring on May 20,
1990. See, 1985 Special Permit Use approval, attached. Since the expiration of the
Special Permit Use on May 20,1990, the ShopRite space has received five (5) Certificates
of Occupancy for additional work performed on the ShopRite space on the premises,
none of which Certificates of Occupancy identified the need for the reinstatement or
Shamberg Marvell Hollis Andreycak 6 Laidlaw, P.C.
November 20, 2014
modification of the Special Permit Use. See, post-1990 Certificates of Occupancy1,
attached.
Proposed Expansion
As shown on the accompanying plans, ShopRite is proposing to renovate the
existing retail space and to expand and add approximately 20,844 sf. of additional floor
area to the existing supermarket retail area. The proposed expansion will consist of an
additional 5,992 sf. to be constructed along the rear of the building, an additional 9,967
sf. to be constructed along the left hand side of the building, an additional 3,421 sf.
mezzanine area along the front, left hand side of the building and the construction of a
1,464 sf. vestibule along the front, right hand side of the building. The existing retail
space will be upgraded and updated with new decor and the relocation and expansion of
some departments, the alteration and widening of the aisles and the addition of new
department and aisle signage. The cumulative effect of this expansion and renovation
will be a beautiful, fresh and natural environment for our customers in the existing
supermarket space.
Renovations to existing retail space
As stated above, creation of an additional 20,844 sf. of additional floor area
allows for the renovation and expansion of the existing supermarket, in the following
ways:
Produce Department
We are planning to expand the Produce Department to provide the widest possible
variety of healthy and affordable fruits and vegetables in addition to widening the
department aisle. This will enhance the shopping experience by providing more space
for customers to browse and take their time in making selections.
Deli Department
With more consumers turning to the grocery store for convenient meals and the fresh
values, our Deli Department will be increasing our “meal solution segment”, to include a
fresh Hot Foods Line.
Fish Department
The new Fish Department will be offering a vast array of fresh and frozen selection of
Seafood, including an increased variety of marinades, sauces, seasonings, herbs and
other ingredients that complete a meal with seafood as the centerpiece.
1 Certificate of Occupancy dated July 23, 2003 (for interior alterations);
Certificate of Occupancy dated October 21, 2004 (for interior alterations, partition, ceiling & replacement
of existing door);
Certificate of Occupancy dated January 29, 2007 (to replace 2 existing propone UST’s);
Certificate of Occupancy dated April 12, 2012 (for interior renovations ShopRite Supermarket);
Certificate of Occupancy dated April 12, 2012 (to modify existing storefront entrance doors and Vestibule
at the ShopRite store).

November 20, 2014
Bakery Department
ShopRite will be improving the variety of offerings in our Bakery Department and selling
an expanded line of fresh delicious baked goods while providing the same ShopRite
value.
Meat Department
The Meat Department is being expanded to provide more variety packaging and
selection. This will include a larger section of frozen meats.
Grocery
The perishable departments are proposed to be expanded which allows for our grocery
aisles to offer additional product and variety including more economical bulk packaging.
General Requirements- Village of Croton-on-Hudson Code. Article X
of Chapter aao
The procedure regulating the re-issuance and modification of a Special Permit is
set forth in the Village Code (§ 230-55 et se£.) and requires an applicant to initially
identify and document six (6) items (A through F):
A. A description of the proposed use, with reference to the
appropriate use and regulations of this chapter, including any
supplementary regulations applying thereto.
The Applicant proposes to continue and expand its existing use as a retail store
(supermarket) as it has operated at the premises since 1977. As per Village Code
§ 230-i7(A)(i) any use permitted in a Commercial C-i District, is permitted
within a C-2 district (as set forth in § 230-16A), except that for any properties not
within the Harmon/South Riverside area of the Gateway Overlay District, a
“retail store” is permitted only by special permit of the Village Board of Trustees.
As set forth above, the expansion of the ground floor area of the supermarket is
for the purpose of improving the store layout and customer access to the
merchandise being offered for sale and to improve the customer experience while
shopping at ShopRite.
The Applicant is also subject to and in compliance with those supplementary
regulations set forth at § 230-43 which sets forth the method of measuring the
height of nonresidential buildings and § 230-44 which governs the use of Signs
on commercial property.
The proposed expansion will not implicate §230-43 because the height of the
building will remain in conformance with the maximum height permitted
(maximum permitted, two (2) stories; one (1) story proposed).
The Applicant is proposing to add new signage on the front, left-hand side of the
building over the proposed mezzanine area. This proposed signage will be a
ShopRite logo, consistent with the logo located over the vestibule/entrance-way
on the front, right-hand side of the building.
Shamberg Marwell Hollis Andreycak 6 Laidlaw, RC.
November 20, 2014
B. A cost-benefit analysis or similar study to review the estimated
municipal costs, services and prospective revenues which would
be generated by the proposed use.
It is respectfully submitted that the expansion of the ground floor area of the
retail space will not create any significant new burdens on municipal costs,
services and prospected revenues. As set forth above, the formal re-issuance of
the expired Special Permit will merely confirm the status quo, which the
operation of a retail supermarket within an already existing and operational
shopping center tract. Moreover, to the degree that the proposed expansion
which will add approximately 20,844 sf. of gross floor area, the purpose of the
expansion is to improve the customer service and the range and quality of items
offered to customers, which is not expected to add municipal costs, burden
services or to directly generate significant prospective revenues for the Village.
C. Evidence that the proposed use is consistent with the goals of the
Village’s Master Plan.
The Village’s “Master Plan” is currently embodied in the Village of Croton-On-
Hudson 2003 Comprehensive Plan adopted on January 21, 2003 (“2003
Comprehensive Plan”).
The 2003 Comprehensive Plan identifies the ShopRite supermarket as part of the
existing “ShopRite Shopping Center” within what the Comprehensive Plan
describes as the Riverside/Harmon Shopping Area. See, 2003 Comprehensive
Plan, pp. 66-67. The continued operation of the ShopRite retail store
(supermarket) use is consistent with the goals of the 2003 Comprehensive Plan,
which states that “the location of the Harmon/South Riverside shopping area
enhances its retail potential: it is accessible to pedestrians from the surrounding
neighborhoods and is a gateway to Croton from the Croton-Harmon Railroad
Station via Croton Point Avenue.”
The proposed application for the re-issuance and amendment of a Special Permit
Use in order to continue the operation of a retail store (supermarket) at the 460
South Riverside Avenue location is furthermore consistent with the 2003
Comprehensive Plan’s recommendations that “no new rezonings occur that
would permit commercial development outside of those areas currently zoned for
commercial development” and that if “rezoning to commercial done in the future,
the scale and massing of the existing structures should be maintained.” See,
Comprehensive Plan, pp. 82.
D. A traffic and circulation study projecting the effects of the
proposed use of the existing and probably future traffic and access
in the vicinity of the proposed use.
The proposed application for a re-issuance and amendment of a Special Permit
Use in order to continue to operate a retail store (supermarket) in the ShopRite
Shopping Center on South Riverside Avenue is not expected to have any
Shamberg Marwell Holxis Andreycak & Laidlaw, P.C.
November 20,2014
significant effects on future traffic access in the vicinity of the supermarket or
within the existing Shopping Center. The proposed additions are primarily
located in the rear of the building, toward the portion of the property line which
borders on Route 9 and on the left hand side of the building which borders on a
vacant lot. These proposed additions will not have any negative effects on
vehicular access to the site, nor will they have any negative effects on the
circulation of traffic within the site. The internal renovations will primarily serve
to improve the customer experience by upgrading the internal decor, relocating
and expanding some departments, altering and widening the aisles and adding
new department and aisle signage. The construction of a new mezzanine and
vestibule in the front portion of the store will improve pedestrian customer access
to the store.
Moreover, following the proposed addition of the approximately 20,844 sf, the
Applicant will continue to be in conformance with the parking requirements set
forth at §230-51 of the Village Code. See, Parking Calculations on Site Plan C1.0.
E. Copies of environmental assessments or permit applications and
supporting materials which maybe required to meet New York
State or federal regulations.
Attached are a Short Form EAF and Coastal Assessment Form providing all of the
required information regarding the Application’s expected impacts.
F. A stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) consistent with
the requirements of Chapter 196, Article I, Stormwater
Management and Erosion and Sediment Control, shall be required
for any special permit approval that qualifies as or authorizes a
land development activity as defined in Chapter 196, Article I.
The Applicant’s proposal to construct an additional 20,844 sf. of gross floor area
constitutes a “land development activity” as defined in Chapter 196, Article I.
The attached letter from the Lauro Group addresses the issue of the SWPPP,
which cannot be fully prepared at this stage of the project. Nevertheless, the
Applicant acknowledges that a full SWPPP which addresses all of the relevant
areas of inquiry, must be approved prior to final approval of the Special Permit
Use and Site Plan.
Based upon the submitted proposed Site Plan and related drawings and
documents and based upon the reasons set forth above, it is respectfully requested that
the applicant, ShopRite, be re-issued a Special Permit Use and also be granted
permission to amend that Special Permit Use and its Site Plan to add 20,844 sf. of
additional floor area in order to allow for the renovation and expansion of the existing
supermarket retail space.
