See attachment Al Public Sign In
After the Pledge of Allegiance, Chairman Muhlbauer called the meeting to order at 7:01 pm.
Tonight on the agenda the Planning Board is addressing the following Public Hearings:
Application # 11118 for Special Exception approval for Bed & Breakfast 36 N. Central
Ave. Springville, NY SBL 335.15-7-9
Chairman Muhlbauer asked the applicant to come up and explain what it is she is asking for.
Robyn Foster came forward along with her husband Paul and explained that she has an upper 1
bedroom 850 square foot unit which accommodates 2 occupants it is fully furnished which she
rents out on Air B&B where identities of the guests are verified as to not rent out to young kids
or any unwanted guests. Most renters are looking for a quiet place to stay while attending
sporting events like Bills games and skiing. Mr. Foster said it promotes business for local
businesses as well. Chairman Muhlbauer explained that the rules state if the owner resides in the
dwelling they are allowed up to 4 rooms to rent out so he doesn’t see a problem with this and
said sees no problem with parking requirements. Member Greg Keyser asked if it had its own
access and was told it does. He also asked about what amenities are offered and was told just a

private balcony and parking. Member Greg Keyser asked CEO John Baker if there are any other
Air B&Bs in the neighborhood to which he replied the only ones he is aware of are the Oasis
Bed and Breakfast and the one that Retzlaffs had at the Depot and none on the same street.
Member Barb Lipka asked about signage and was told that there is none other than a small one
for guest parking. Chairman Muhlbauer asked CEO John Baker about any fire codes and was
told placard’s with fire escape and fire inspections will be needed.
Chairman Muhlbauer then asked CEO John Baker about SEQR and was told it was an unlisted
action with a negative declaration. Chairman Muhlbauer asked for any public comment with
none he then asked for a motion to approve the application # 11118 for special use exception.
Member Greg Keyser made thet motion, seconded by Member Barb Lipka. All in favor none
n
opposed.
The vote went as follows:
¢ Bob Muhlbauer aye
e Greg Keyser aye
e Brett Landsman aye
¢ Barb Lipka aye
Next on the agenda, a continuation of the following Public Hearing:
Application # 11161 Greg Beatty V/L Rezone R8.5 to R-M
Chairman Muhlbauer asked Mr. Beatty if he had any changes and he said he just had some
talking points he wanted to make clear. The rendering that he had at the last meeting was just to
give an idea of what the building would look like. He wanted it to show that it would not be a
box style brick and mortar like some that are already in the village.
Mr. Beatty said he grew up in the village and is married and raising his family here. He knows
that there is a need for additional housing and would like to help with that. He stated that he
could build 4 single family homes which allow 4 parking spaces which would be a total of 16
additional vehicles in the neighborhood. The apartment complex would have a total of 17.
As far as traffic jams go, he sees no issues with the other apartment buildings in town and
doesn’t think it would happen here either. He would like to use 2 lots to build on as to allow for
Page 53
Page 3
January 27,2026
Planning Board Minutes
green space on each side, The area already has existing utilities and is ideal for being walkable to
schools, for people working at the hospital as well as to downtown.
Chairman Muhlbauer mentioned that as per last months meeting people attending made it clear _
that they don’t like to see change and would rather keep the green space to watch the deer.
However, as it stands you could build 4 single family homes but are asking for a zone change to
allow for a 12 unit apartment building which neighbors and myself feel may be too big. He
mentioned perhaps two 4 unit buildings may be a better fit. He The Villages Comprehensive Plan
does note a need for rental units which are urgently needed.
At this time Chairman Muhlbauer asked for any public comment.
Kristine Kline who resides at 112 Elm St. came forward and stated that she did review the
Comprehensive Plan and learned that there is a need for additional residential living but also to
have green space. She put a list together which she would like to go over for the board to
consider:
1. Traffic 6. Scale Density
2. Parking 7. Depreciation of current property owners
3. Noise 8. Property maintenance
4. Light pollution » 9, Construction <
5. Storm water drainage 10. Public Service Demands
)
One other thing Kristine mentioned was Spot Zoning which she heard there was possibly
happening in East Aurora, it is controversial rezoning of a small parcel of land to use
classification that differs from surrounding areas zoning where it benefits a single owner.
Rachel Hughes who resides at 79 Elm St. has concerns with privacy issues.
Mike McCrory who resides at 200 Elm St. said he reviewed the Comprehensive Plan and
understands the need to create housing but feels that smaller patio type homes would be a better
fit in this neighborhood. He built his home in 2006 and had some issues with burglaries
vandalism and trespassing over the past few years which turned out to be tenants from nearby
subsidized apartment buildings. He also mentioned that he, like his neighbor Kristine, had an
appraisal done and was told his property value would depreciate if the apartment building went
up.
Chairman Muhlbauer thanked the residents for their concerns and stated that these
apartments wouldn’t be subsidized. He asked the board members for any comments they may
have. Member Brett Landsman said all were good points but feels that they would still have to
be dealt with even if the single family homes were built. He also wanted to remind everyone
Page 54
Page 4
January 27,2026
Planning Board Minutes
that the purpose of this meeting is for the rezone and not a site plan approval. Member Barb
Lipka said she has a problem with it fitting into the neighborhood aesthetically and wouldn’t
want it if she lived there. Member Greg Keyser said by rezoning this would allow for higher
density and would become permanent and feels it would not be appropriate for this
neighborhood. He is not in favor of the rezone and said the applicant does have other options.
Chairman Muhlbauer asked for a motion as to make a recommendation to the Village Board of
Trustees to deny the rezone from R8.5 to RM. Member Greg Keyser made the motion, seconded
by Member Barb Lipka. All in favor none opposed.
Next on the agenda this evening is an informational presentation by Springville Youth Inc.
regarding the property at 79 S. Buffalo St. where they have plans to build a community center.
Hillary Georgi the architect from Elev8 and Stephanie Bacon the Executive Director for SYI
were on hand with some early design plans to go over. The programs they currently have include
childcare, summer camps, evening and weekend and year around sporting programs which are
offered to residents in the town of Concord, Village of Springville and surrounding towns. They
operate out of both 63 Maple Ave. and 79 S Buffalo St. and have reached capacity. Currently
they are working with the schools to use the gyms but sometimes they have conflicts. They have
a van they use to transport the kids and feel that having everything offered in one place makes
sense.
_ The plan is to combine both locations at 79 S. Buffalo St. which would mean removing the
existing pool house, the pool would remain but also needs renovations. The new facility would
have enough space for a recreation room, cafeteria; community room, offices and a regulation
size basketball court. The new center would be built towards the back of the property as to allow
enough space for parking and pick up and drop off in the front. The total square footage would
be 16000 square feet, twice the size of the current Maple Ave. property and be available to the
community to use.
Chairman Muhibauer thanked them for the presentation and said the board looks forward to
working with them once they finalize everything and are ready to come before the Planning
Board for approval.
With nothing else to discuss, Chairman Muhlbauer asked for a motion to approve the minutes
from the December 23, 2025 meeting. Member Brett Landsman made the motion, seconded by
Member Greg Keyser. All in favor, none opposed.
Chairman Muhlbauer made a motion to adjourn meeting at 8:15 p.m. Member Barb Lipka made
the motion, seconded by Member Greg Keyser. All in favor, none opposed. Meeting adjourned.
Respectfully Submitted,
