December 22, 2025 Jeffery Schieber Code Enforcement Officer 1250 Union Road – Room 210 West Seneca, New York 14224 RE: 2544 Clinton Street – Home Leasing Development Special Use Permit Amendment Mr. Schieber: On behalf of Home Leasing, I am pleased to submit the attached package seeking an Amendment to the Special Use Permit for the previously approved development at 2544 Clinton Street. The project is located on Tax parcel #124.00-2-5, which is a 11.7-acre parcel bounded by Clinton Street to the south, Cayuga Creek to the north and west, and a vacant property to the east. The modification to the site plan was driven by our commitment to improving the overall functionality and livability of the community. In response to comments from the Planning Board, Town Board, and various financing partners, we have developed a plan that better meets these objectives. By consolidating the layout into a single building set back further from the street, we can best meet accessibility standards, preserve mature vegetation, increase open space, improve shelter-in-place accommodations, improve parking and bus accessibility, improve playground safety, reduced electrical demand, and provide a better overall design for residents. Home Leasing previously received approval (1/27/2025) from the Town Board to rezone the parcel to R 50 and issuance of a Special Use Permit - allowing for multiple-family dwellings. Home Leasing is seeking to amend the existing Special Use Permit based on a revised conceptual site layout. We are first seeking a positive recommendation from the Planning Board before presenting it in front of the Town Board. The amended site layout includes ±75 units split between a proposed singular 3-story building - in the rear of the property - and a repurposing of the existing mansion – to include residential units. The previously approved layout included six townhouse buildings and reuse of the mansion. As with the original version of the project, the site will include the code required 150 parking spaces, site access will utilize the existing site entrance (to be widened), sidewalks, playground, landscaping and stormwater management facilities. Additional improvements to the existing mansion will include amenities for residents, modification (interior and exterior) to make the first floor ADA accessible. Also included as parts of this package are the following: revised conceptual plan, updated FEAF and appendices including reports/studies/supplemental information. After amendment of the Special Use Permit, Home Leasing intends to submit a fully engineered package to the Planning Board for Site Plan Approval. The revised site layout, with a singular apartment building - instead of six scattered townhouse buildings - will result in a variety of benefits for the project as a whole: Page 6 of 110
