Re: Application for Site Plan Approval and Special Use Permit
Tranquil Hudson Cannabis Inc. — 794 Dutchess Turnpike
Tax Map Parcel: 6262-04-561004
Dear Members of the Town Board, Planning Board, and Planning Department Staff:
On behalf of Tranquil Hudson Cannabis Inc. ("THC" or the "Applicant"), we respectfully submit
this application for Site Plan Approval and Special Use Permit for a cannabis retail dispensary at
794 Dutchess Turnpike (Tax Map Parcel 6262-04-561004), located in the B-H (Highway
Business) zoning district. A pre-application meeting was held with the Planning Department on
June 8, 2026.
THC holds an Adult-Use Retail Dispensary License issued by the New York State Office of
Cannabis Management (License No. OCM-RETL-26-000506, effective May 20, 2026)
authorizing in-person retail sales with delivery at this location. The property is owned by North
Plank Development Co. L.L.C., which has authorized this application.
Project Description. The proposed project involves the interior fit-out of the western portion
of an existing commercial building (approximately 3,100 square feet) for use as a cannabis
retail dispensary, together with exterior facade improvements. The eastern portion of the
building will operate as an insurance office. The project scope includes interior renovations to
create a sales floor, point-of-sale area, vault, office, break room, mantrap, and related support
spaces; exterior cladding in wood slat, brick, and stone finishes; replacement exterior lighting;
and new signage (a wall-mounted facade sign and a freestanding monument sign).
No new construction or expansion of the building footprint is proposed. No site grading,
excavation, or increase in impervious surface coverage is proposed. The existing parking lot
(19 spaces, exceeding the 16 required) will be configured as proposed. The building's existing
HVAC system will be reutilized with interior ductwork modifications to serve the new layout.
Cannabis retail sales are a special use in the B-H district pursuant to §210-35 C.(4), subject
to the requirements of §210-61 and the issuance of a Special Use Permit. Substantive narrative

Pre-Existing Nonconformities. The site has pre-existing nonconforming dimensional
conditions with respect to the B-H district bulk requirements, including lot area (0.47 acres vs. 2
acres required), lot width (108.2 feet vs. 200 feet), minimum side yard (0.9 feet vs. 40 feet), and
minimum rear yard (38.7 feet vs. 40 feet). These nonconformities are attributable to the lot's
historical configuration and are not created or exacerbated by the proposed use. No
expansion of the building footprint or modification to the lot boundaries is proposed.
Security. THC will operate a fully integrated security system in compliance with OCM
regulations, including 360-degree interior and exterior video surveillance, access control on all
interior and exterior doors, and a monitored alarm system with motion detectors, glass-break
sensors, and panic buttons. A Knox Box is proposed on the rear of the building for fire
department access.

History
Per the 2011 Reconnaissance-Level Historic Resource Survey Update, the house
presently situated at 11 Vassar Road was constructed in 1850 for Benjamin Everett.' Having
purchased the land from Le Grand Dodge in 1846, I am unsure as to the exact reason the house
was originally constructed.? I suspect that the house was not constructed for habitation. In
1850, Benjamin Everett is listed as having lived just south of his new property, indicating he
was already well-situated prior to this new construction. I suspect its initial purpose was as an
inn or similar such business, but I cannot provide sufficient information to support this claim.
Regardless, the property was sold by Everett to James A. Seward on April 24, 1859.4
The property was sold again by Seward to John Roach in 1862, who sold it to Adrian M.
Cornell five years later. Cornell then sold the house back to Roach in 1868.6 There are two
areas of note in regard to these sales. First, is that Adrian Cornell also did not live on the
property, further indicating its primary use as a business rather than residential.?
Second, is the involvement of John Roach. John Roach owned several properties in the
Poughkeepsie area throughout his life, but his primary business was naval construction. He was
contracted by the presidential administration of Chester A. Arthur to construct the first four
steel warships for the U.S. navy in the 1880s, an endeavor which bankrupted his company and
apparently contributed to his death soon thereafter.
After his death the property found its way into the hands of William H. Howell, who
leased the property to Raymond J. Gibson and William E. Gibson. After remodeling the
original house, the Gibson brothers would open the property on August 17, 1937 as the

Gibson's Colonial Inn, a staple of the area for the next few decades.? The inn would be sold to
William P. Nejame on July 14, 1959, who maintained the inn until his retirement in 1977.'011
After his retirement, Gibson's Colonial Inn would close, becoming several different
restaurants over the course of the late 1970's and 1980's. First it became the Country Bread
Board, which became Agron's Restaurant in October 1981.'2 Agron's was run by a couple:
Meani & Bukurjie Dika, who also acquired the property from either Howell or an interim
owner.' By 1986 the property was sold by the couple to J. Crotone Properties Inc., who leased
it to SCO-Pet Inc. as La Trattoria from 1986 to 1989.14 It was then leased to John R. Davis,
Timothy D. Murphy, and Merrick Egan, who reopened the property as the Hobnobbin' Pub in
1989.'5
The pub would close in 2016, whereupon the property was purchased by Geraldon Realty
Inc. under Bob Dooley, who reopened the property as The Gibson, in honor of the Gibson's
Colonial Inn. 1617 After a few years, he then rebranded the establishment as the Poughkeepsie
Steakhouse, which is how the property remains to this day.

Town of Poughkeepsie - Green Fleet Policy
The Town of Poughkeepsie recognizes that its municipal vehicle fleet significantly impacts
operating costs, local air quality, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Transportation is a
leading source of emissions; this source accounted for nearly 40% of municipal emissions based
on the Local Government Operations GHG emissions inventory and a similar percentage of
community emissions in the Community GHG emissions inventory. Our town seeks to lead by
example in sustainability while ensuring efficient delivery of public services.
The Town commits to:
1. Lowering operating costs through efficient fleet management.
2. Using transparent, data-driven decision-making in fleet procurement and
operations.
3. Reducing fuel consumption and GHG emissions.
4. Expanding the use of zero-emission and low-emission vehicles where feasible
based on the above considerations.
Fleet Inventory
Baseline & Tracking
• The Legislative Aide, in coordination with the Senior Mechanic, Comptroller's Office,
Highway Superintendent, Water Superintendent, and Sewer Superintendent shall
maintain a comprehensive fleet inventory of all municipal vehicles and equipment.
• Updates: The inventory shall be updated annually and published annually as part of the
town's capital budgeting process.
• Data Collected per Vehicle:
• Year, make, model, VIN
• Drivetrain type, weight class, and EPA classification
• Fuel or power source
• Miles per gallon (or kWh/mile for EVs)
• Annual miles driven and usage rate
• Fuel/power consumption and cost per mile
• Department and function
Emission Reduction Goals
The objective is to reduce emissions from approximately 1,120 MTCO2e to approximately 652
MTCO2e in 2030. To reduce gas-fueled vehicle emissions by 30%. To reduce diesel-fueled
vehicle emissions by 10%. To replace 75% of gas-powered maintenance equipment with
electric-powered maintenance equipment. All new purchases of maintenance equipment shall be
electric unless otherwise waived by the relevant Department Head and Town Supervisor.
• Short-Term Goal: Reduce total municipal fleet GHG emissions by 30% by 2030
compared to the 1990 levels.
• Long-Term Goal: Transition to a 100% zero-emission light-duty fleet by 2050, with
medium- and heavy-duty transitions as technology and funding allow.
Procurement Policy
General Rules
• The Town shall purchase, lease, or otherwise acquire the most energy-efficient and
cost-effective vehicles that meet operational needs.
• Vehicles shall be right-sized — the smallest, most efficient vehicle that can effectively
perform the intended function.
Electric Vehicle Priority
• Light-Duty Vehicles: All new purchases must be EV or Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) unless
a waiver is granted by the Town Board due to:
1. Lack of available models that meet functional needs, or
2. Excessive cost that cannot be offset through grants or incentives.
• Medium & Heavy-Duty Vehicles: EV or low-emission alternatives shall be prioritized
where cost and operational performance are comparable.
Minimum Efficiency Standards
• Passenger Cars: ≥18 MPG (gas/diesel) or ≥55 MPGe (electric/hybrid).
• Light-Duty Trucks / Small Vans: ≥15 MIG (gas/diesel) or ≥50 MPGe (electric/hybrid)
Medium-Duty Vehicles (Class 3-5): ≥15 MPG (gas/diesel) or ≥40 MPGe
(electric/hybrid)
• Heavy-Duty Vehicles (Class 6-8): 26 MPG (gas/diesel)
• Minimum standard for the entire fleet: ≥16 MPG (gas/diesel) or ≥55 MPGe
(electric/hybrid).
Exemptions for emergency, specialty, and heavy-duty vehicles shall be documented and
approved.
• The town shall meet the minimum efficiency standard five years from the fleet policy's
adoption.
Fleet Rightsizing & Replacement
• Rightsizing Review: Vehicles driven less than 5,000 miles/year or consuming under
200 gallons of fuel/year shall be evaluated for removal or reassignment.
• Replacement Priority Order:
1. Zero-emission vehicles (EV)
2. Alternative-fuel vehicles (e.g., CNG, hydrogen, biodiesel)
3. Hybrid vehicles
4. Conventional high-efficiency gasoline vehicles
5. Conventional diesel (last resort)
• Lifecycle Costing: Replacement decisions will consider total cost of ownership,
including purchase price, fuel, maintenance, and residual value.

manufacturer-recommended service intervals.
• Driver Training: Staff operating municipal vehicles shall receive training on
fuel-efficient driving practices.
Funding & Incentives
• The Town will seek grants to offset the cost of EVs, charging infrastructure, and
alternative-fuel technology.
Reporting & Transparency

year, including:
• Current fleet inventory
• Fuel consumption and costs
• Emissions data
• Progress toward goals

service line item. A brief description of each requested change and/or project related additional
scope item is included with each line item request below.
1. Archeological Study - Phase 1A Literature Review and Sensitivity Assessment:
The Phase 1A Literature Review and Sensitivity Assessment is required because the project

construction. The study will evaluate prior disturbance, historic land use, archaeological
resources, and map-documented structures. We propose utilizing Hudson Cultural Services to
prepare the Phase 1A Literature Review and Sensitivity Assessment who is well suited due to
Hudson Valley experience, qualified archaeologists, CRIS submission capability, WBE
certification, and proven record completing hundreds of New York cultural resource surveys

Re: Poughkeepsie PD Project
Phase 1A Literature Review and Sensitivity Assessment
1 Overocker Road
Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, New York
Dear Ms. Prabhakaran,
Thank you for the opportunity to prepare a proposal for the Phase 1A Literature Review and Sensitivity
Assessment for the proposed Poughkeepsie PD Project located on the northern side of Overocker Road in the
town of Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, New York. The Area of Potential Effect for this Project is considered
to be t1.4 acres of undisturbed land that will be impacted by the proposed project. The Phase 1A survey consistsof
the background research for property.
PHASE 1A LITERATURE SEARCH AND SENSITIVITY ASSESSMENT
The Phase 1A Literature Search and Sensitivity Assessment will assess the overall sensitivity of the site based on
environmental factors and whether portions of the site have been disturbed, assess the level of that disturbance
and determine whether Precontact or historic sites have been identified in the vicinity of the project area. The
Phase 1A will include a site visit to photograph the existing conditions which will include any existing structures
within the project area. Research will be undertaken to determine former land use, and a review of the
archaeological site files housed at New York State's Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation will
be completed. Cartographic materials available at the Library of Congress or the New York State Archives will
be reviewed to determine if any historic structures (Map Documented Structures) were located within the
property boundaries.
The final Phase 1A report will include the scope of the proposed undertaking (if known), a discussion of the
environmental conditions on the property, a Precontact sensitivity assessment and an assessment of any historic
properties with photo-documentation of the existing conditions. The Phase 1A will also evaluate any impacts to
any adjacent National Register Propert(ies).
PHASE 1A COSTS AND INVOICING
The total cost for the Phase 1A Literature Review and Sensitivity Assessment for the Poughkeepsie PD Project
is $1975.00. A breakdown of costs for the Phase 1A is included as the final page of this document. If you wish us
to proceed with the work, please sign the authorization and return it to our office.
[email protected]
Page |2
An invoice will be presented along with a draft copy of the report. The final invoice will be presented upon
submission of the draft version of the report to you. At that time, we will work with you to address any comments
or changes you may have to the final document prior to its submission to the reviewing agency.
HCS will work with the project sponsor to submit the report to OPRHP through their Cultural Resource
Information System (CRIS). NYS OPRHP is currently recommending that all reports for Cultural Resource
Surveys be submitted into their GIS based system (CRIS) by the consultant who completed the survey. All
involved agencies for the project must be identified in the project submission in CRIS. The cost of this
submission is included in this proposal.
WORK SCHEDULE AND PROJECT TIMING
A work schedule will be coordinated upon receipt of authorization to proceed. The reports can generally be
completed within three (3) to four (4) weeks of authorization, dependent on the timing of the site visit. In the
event of a critical deadline, our office will take any needed steps to accelerate report production.
Currently the work associated with the Phase 1A can be scheduled for July of 2026. The timing will be
determined upon receipt of authorization to proceed
EXPIRATION
The Proposal shall remain an offer which can be accepted by the Client up until 6 months from the date listed
on the first page (the "Expiration Date"), after which this offer will require review by HCS prior to authorization
and acceptance.
ADDITIONAL EXPENSES
Should Hudson Cultural Services be required to represent the client at planning board meetings, the New York
State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP), or other project related consultations,
hours will be billed separately at $155.00 per hour for meeting and travel time.

: OWN OF POUGHKEEPSIE
TOWN CLERK
Date: 8/18/2026
Dear Town Clerk's Office, Members of the Town Board, and Superintendent Mir. Simon,
We are writing to formally request an immediate traffic-safety evaluation of the intersection
located in the Town of Poughkeepsie in the intersection of Marple Rd., Seitz Terr., and Ray
Blvd., including consideration of installing an additional stop sign and/or other appropriate
traffic-control measures.
My family and I have lived at our home for approximately eight months, and during that
relatively short period, we have already witnessed multiple accidents and dangerous incidents
at this intersection. The frequency and severity of these incidents have become extremely
concerning to us, to the point that we are afraid to spend time in the front of our home or in our
garage because of the possibility that a vehicle could lose control and enter our property.
Since moving here, we have personally witnessed two reported accidents, including the
accident that occurred today. We have also witnessed several additional incidents during the
winter months that were not formally reported, when vehicles lost control or slid down the hill
because of snowy and icy road conditions. Additionally, our neighbors, many of whom have
lived in the area for years, have told us that this intersection has been the site of numerous
accidents throughout the years. This has made it clear to us that this is not an isolated or
recent problem, but an ongoing safety issue that has affected the neighborhood for a
considerable amount of time.
On July 17th, a young girl riding an e-bike was struck by a vehicle at this intersection, leaving
the young girl shaking and screaming in the middle of the intersection waiting for the ambulance
to arrive. The vehicle was reportedly traveling at a high rate of speed, and the absence of a stop
sign creates an environment in which drivers can proceed through the intersection without being
required to stop. This incident was extremely alarming and demonstrated the very real danger
this intersection presents.
On August 23th, there was another accident involving two vehicles, with one of the
vehicles ultimately crashing into the tree in front of my neighbor's home. Seeing another
accident occur directly at this intersection, with both vehicles leaving the roadway and striking a
residential property, has significantly increased our fear that a similar incident could happen to
our own home.
Our home is one of the corner homes directly situated at this intersection. Unlike my
neighbor's property, there is no tree or other substantial barrier in front of our home. If a vehicle
were to lose control in the same manner, there would be little to prevent it from traveling directly
into our house. As a parent of a young baby, this is an especially frightening concern. We should
not have to feel unsafe simply being in the front of our own home or in our garage because of
the possibility of a vehicle crashing into our property.
The situation becomes even more dangerous during the winter months. Because there is no
stop sign requiring vehicles to slow down or stop, drivers often travel down the hill at high
speeds. When snow and ice are present, vehicles can lose traction and slide down the hill. We
have personally witnessed several such incidents since moving here. The combination of the
steep hill, winter conditions, speeding vehicles, and the absence of a stop sign creates an
extremely hazardous situation for residents, pedestrians, cyclists, and other motorists.
At this point, these concerns are not hypothetical. Multiple accidents and dangerous
incidents have occurred during the eight months that we have lived here, and our
neighbors have confirmed that this intersection has experienced numerous accidents
over the years. The fact that an accident occurred today, resulting in a vehicle striking a tree on
my neighbor's property and the other one driving into the neighbor's driveway, is particularly
concerning because it demonstrates how easily a vehicle can leave the roadway and reach a
residential property.
We are genuinely afraid that, without intervention, the next vehicle could enter our home,
particularly because our property is directly at the corner and does not have a tree or other
barrier between the roadway and our house. More importantly, we are concerned that someone
could suffer a much more serious injury or even lose their life before appropriate safety
measures are implemented
I respectfully request that the appropriate department urgently evaluate this intersection and
determine whether an additional stop sign, speed-control measure, traffic-calming device, or
other safety improvement is warranted. Given the documented and witnessed history of
accidents, as well as the concerns expressed by long-term residents, I strongly believe that
preventative action should be taken before a more serious tragedy occurs.
This request is being made out of genuine concern for the safety of our family and the entire
neighborhood. We should be able to feel safe in our own home, garage, and community without
fearing that a speeding or out-of-control vehicle could come through the intersection and strike
our property.
Thank you for taking this matter seriously and for your attention to this urgent safety concern. I
respectfully request that this intersection be reviewed and that we be informed of any steps that
can be taken to improve safety for everyone in the area.
Respectfully,
David and Karla Calle
