  Application for Site Plan Approval for Site Lighting

Dear Mayor Mercurio and Members of the Planning Board:

  In connection with the above-referenced property, enclosed please find our application seeking site plan
approval to allow for updating the current existing site lights with new dark sky compliant LED fixtures. It should
be noted that no new light poles are proposed and this is an upgrade of the existing dual lights fixtures to quad LED
fixtures. It should be further noted that on December 14, 2017, the Village of East Aurora Zoning Board of Appeals
granted an area variance to allow the site to have 149,705 lumens/acre. The new LED fixtures will reduce the
amount of lumens that are on site and will provide a reduction in the lumens per acre. The site lighting will be
reduced from 149,705 Lumens/Acre to 72,383 Lumens/Acre, which brings the site closer to compliance with the
maximum allowed requirement of 60,000 Lumens/acre per §165-4 of Village code.

  In support of this application package, please find enclosed the following information:

  1) Civil Engineering Plans prepared by James A Rumsey, R.A;
  2) Village of East Aurora Application; and
  3) Short EAF.

  We look forward to working with the Village on this project. Should you have any questions or require
any additional materials, please do not hesitate to either Courtney Adamo at (716) 878-9630 or James Boglioli at
(716) 878-9626.

  Thank you,
