Arthur Cusano is reporting in the Register Star the Ghent and Claverack Planning boards have tentatively chosen Nov. 10 for the joint vote on a proposed expansion to the Ginsberg's Foods facility. The vote is slated to take place at the Claverack Town Court. The state Department of Transportation has now approved the application for a permanent entrance off Route 66 that would include an exit lane. Both the Claverack and Ghent zoning boards of appeals have granted the food distributor three variances for the project, including a variance to allow the proposed building to exceed the town’s maximum building height. The company’s plans call for the construction of a 65,000-square-foot freezer and 8,400-square-foot maintenance building during the first phase of the project.
