The Planning Board opened what its acting chair called "a long, long process" on Carmel Riverside LLC's 49-unit apartment proposal at 425 S. Riverside Ave., with Chairman Rob Luntz recused, 31 issues flagged by the village's planning consultant, and the applicant agreeing to complete the application before variance requests go to the Zoning Board of Appeals. The board also plans to flag the chicken-coop setback in its comments back to the trustees on the proposed animal-keeping law.
