Re: SCPB Referral Review #24-10MOU - Special Use Permit - 56 Marion Ave.
A proposal to convert an existing 3rd floor exercise room to a studio apartment in the existing muti-use
building consisting of commercial space and 56 apartment units. The addition of the proposed
apartment unit creates the need to amend the approved 2017 special use permit in order to increase
the number of residential units. Existing parking will comply with the City's code and no increase to the
building footprint nor the site are proposed.
Location: Marion Ave. & Excelsior Ave. (NYS Rt 50 & US Rt 9)
Tax Map #: 166.30-2-13

Permit application has been reviewed by staff and with the necessary concurrence of two Board
