OPPOSITION TO CONSTRUCTION OF A UNITED AUTO SUPPLY WAREHOUSE/DISTRIBUTION CENTER

OPPOSITION TO CONSTRUCTION OF A UNITED AUTO SUPPLY WAREHOUSE/DISTRIBUTION CENTER AT HENCLE BLVD. & RTE. 48 IN THE TOWN OF LYSANDER, NEW YORK
NOTE: If prompted for donation, those funds go to the internet service which provides free petition service. FUNDS DO NOT GO TO THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDING THE PETITION.
We, the undersigned residents of the Town of Lysander, respectfully petition the Board of Directors of the Town of Lysander to reject the proposal by Ranalli ALA, LLC (United Auto Supply) to extend the water and sewer districts to support the construction a 1 million square foot warehouse/distribution center on the parcel located at the intersection of Hencle Boulevard and Route 48. The location of the facility is directly adjacent to multiple neighborhoods that would be negatively impacted by its construction and operation including, but not limited to the following concerns:
1. A facility of this size and scope will overwhelm the community at large and fundamentally change the character of the residential neighborhoods and village that it borders.
2. The facility is expected to operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 363 days a year. This will generate a relentless amount of noise that will have an adverse effect on the quality of life of the citizens of Lysander and neighboring communities. The tractor trailer traffic alone will generate substantial noise, as well as significant air pollution from the vehicles’ exhaust.
3. Tractor trailers approaching the traffic light on Rte. 690 at the intersection of Hencle Blvd., where trucks would enter and exit the facility, would routinely apply the vehicles’ compression release brake (Jake brake) to slow down, which produces a loud staccato noise that can be in excess of 100 decibels.
4. Truck traffic into and out of the site will be a source of significant traffic congestion.
5. The location of the facility relative to the intersections of Hencle Boulevard, Route 48 and Route 690 will make it difficult, if not impossible for current residents to access Route 690 by turning left onto Hencle Boulevard from Route 48S. This will inadvertently reroute local traffic through the Village of Baldwinsville and surrounding neighborhoods.
6. The facility is expected to employ 500 people, whose commute to and from the site will have a significant impact on traffic congestion, and will likely reroute commuter traffic through the village and surrounding neighborhoods.
7. The proposed site will be under construction for at least 3 years, contributing to substantial noise pollution, air pollution and traffic congestion during that time.
8. The noise, traffic, lighting and drainage/runoff from the massive facility will have an adverse impact on the flora and fauna of the adjacent Three Rivers Wildlife Management Area, as well as the many wildlife enthusiasts who enjoy and interact with the habitat and animal species that the NYS DEC has diligently sought to preserve.
9. Water pressure in the surrounding neighborhoods has been a persistent problem and would likely be further impacted by the vast water requirements of a facility of this magnitude.

The project is still moving forward despite the questions we continue to raise about the noise and traffic in our neighborhoods. I have been spending my nights reviewing the logistical plans and the developers have not offered a single compromise for our community yet. We are exhausted by this process but we are certainly not finished fighting for our homes.

Years ago a farm stand was in the same location and the Town made them remove the building and close the stand due to not being able to access the road from that property (without access). Why now are they able to build and have access on that same piece of property.
I work at Anheuser-Busch and pass through the intersection of Hencle and 690 twice a day and frequently on my days off. A large warehouse in that location would be detrimental to the local traffic patterns and make a somewhat dangerous intersection even more hazardous.
Take over one of the locations that already has vacant building on them rather then take away area where wildlife florishes. If it's the size of great northern mall rip down the mall that is mostly vacant anyway and but your building there.
It would be a travesty to have the Village of Baldwinsville, and its supporting residential communities, be overwhelmed and defined by a behemoth distribution facility that would severely impact the character of the community and the quality of life of its citizens.
My house backs right up to 690. The traffic and brakes 24/7 are going to be unbearable. Let alone regular traffic now that will go through the village. Where’s the water coming from for this building twice the size of the old PnC warehouse? As it is our water pressure sucks!
All the people bitching about air quality are the same people that bitch about having to wear masks to stay alive. Build it. Bring in jobs. This is an opportunity to stop the decaying economy Cuomo has left Northern New York.
There are way to many apartments is this area already. We need more shopping store not apartments

Absolutely not We are right down the street from this on route 48 We already have problems with water and sewage. I am very concerned about worsening the water quality as well as the noise pollution and the lights from the parking lot.
