access road is twenty (20) feet. The Fire Protection Plan includes a"part plan'in
the upper right hand corner indicating the existing brick pillars to remain in place
at the proposed emergency service access road at King Street. My field
measurement confirmed the distance between the existing pillars is only 17.65
feet. Therefore the applicant must reconfigure or remove the existing brick pillars
to provide a minimum unobstructed width of twenty (20) feet.

emergency access road showing compliance with FCNYS 503.2, 503.2.1, 503.2.3,

5. The applicant shall make provisions for perpetual maintenance of the emergency
access road, including that portion of the existing parking lot now dedicated to
such emergency access in good repair, and shall maintain the entire thoroughfare
free from leaves, branches, limbs, accumulated ice and snow& other debris at all
times. The ESTF respectfully requests that language pertaining to such perpetual
maintenance of the emergency access road& thoroughfare be included in the
Final Approval Resolution.
6. The applicant must relocate two (2) fire hydrants and install one (1) additional fire
hydrant as per the attached ESTF Fire Hydrant Re-location Plan, dated 1217115 as
initialed by me.

9. Village Code §240-22.B.(1)requires emergency access in the immediate vicinity

Therefore the applicant must reconfigure the proposed clubhouse/clubhouse
parking so as to comply with this section of code.
10. The applicant must submit a street naming/numbering plan based on the attached
recommended ESTF Road Plan, dated 12/7115 as initialed by me. International
