5 issues in development with medium priority
North Lindenhurst two-lot subdivision on Heathcote Road
A 120' x 140' parcel would be split into two 60-foot-wide lots, keeping and altering the existing house and adding a new two-story home.
Proposed four-tenant retail strip center in Lindenhurst
Mikot Property LLC was scheduled to appear at a public hearing for a proposed 2,964-square-foot retail strip center with four tenant spaces on Merrick Road in Lindenhurst. The project could add new neighborhood retail options and change traffic patterns along the corridor.
Hotel planned for former theater overflow lot
Blumenfeld Development Group wants covenants lifted so the unused overflow parking lot across Route 110 can be decoupled from the Regal UA theater site, which cut nearly half its seats in 2015. Decision was reserved.
Proposed Automated Car Wash on Route 110
A proposed fully automated car wash on Route 110 in North Amityville hit a snag: decades-old covenants from an unbuilt medical office plan still cloud the property. The board will lift those and impose new, modern conditions if it approves.
Single-tenant renovation of 1000 New Horizons Blvd
A vacant 235,000-square-foot aerospace building in North Amityville will be renovated for one large tenant doing light manufacturing and distribution, instead of the four-tenant split approved in April. The scaled-back plan disturbs far less land and needs smaller variances, and the applicant wants a decision fast to hit a January building-permit target.
