The applicant proposes the construction of a single family dwelling on Black Point Road (4.09-1-10). The project is located on a 1.39 acre parcel in the Moderate Intensity (lake shore portion) and Resource Management (east of Black Point Road) APA Land Use Designation. The parcel was cleared and graded 8 years ago in preparation for development. A Lake George Park Commission Stormwater Permit was previously issued. The proposed project will require a variance from the APA for shoreline setback (100' required and 80' proposed). The proposed development will be located in previously disturbed area and no additional clearing is proposed. The proposed dwelling will be 2300 sf. The dwelling will connect to the Black Point Road Sewer District and have a private well for a water supply. The project will have a minor stormwater management plan consisting of infiltration galleries to manage runoff from the building and upper driveway and a grass swale is proposed along Black Point Road to manage runoff from the lower driveway. The project will require a variance from the LGPC for separation from infiltration devices to a well (100' required and 55' provided) and from infiltration devices to the lake (100' required and 34' provided). Black Point Road is proposed to be regraded towards the proposed swale. A planting plan was proposed to install a series of shrubs and junipers along the lake shore to improve the buffer.
