“We’re expanding our distribution center,” Ruby said. The board on Tuesday reviewed the plan, which indicated the longtime furniture, appliance and floor covering business wants to build a 16,000-square-foot steel-frame building to warehouse some of its furniture. Kucel Contractor of Gloversville has been tapped to do the projectĪ site plan for the $700,000 Ruby & Quiri project has already been submitted to the city.

Smith told the applicants that final action may be taken after the hearing. The board also set a public hearing on the project for 4 p.m. Smith also told company owner Rick Ruby and engineer Charles Ackerbauer that the project will have to be referred to the Fulton County Planning Board for review at its July meeting because of its proximity to a state highway. Smith noted a short environmental form was already submitted by the applicant. The board on Tuesday at City Hall declared itself lead agency for the required state Environmental Quality Review for the project. There will be a breezeway connector from the new building to Ruby & Quiri’s existing warehouse structure, the plan indicates. The building would be used for warehouse racking. The new building will be 120-foot by 140-foot by 30-foot tall.

The new warehouse will be constructed to the south of Ruby & Quiri’s main building. Ruby & Quiri, located on Route 30A, is looking to construct a 16,000-square-foot metal-frame building to warehouse furniture.
