    In the Matter of Wallkill Cemetery Association, Inc., Appellants, v Town of Wallkill Planning Board et al., Respondents.
    [904 NYS2d 662]
   In a hybrid proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 to review a determination of the Planning Board of the Town of Wallkill dated April 19, 2006, which granted E. Tetz and Sons, Inc., a special use permit and conditional final site plan approval regarding the construction of an asphalt plant, and action for a judgment declaring that the Planning Board of the Town of Wallkill acted illegally in granting the special use permit and conditional final site plan approval, and enjoining the Town of Wallkill Building Inspector from issuing any permits with respect to the construction of the asphalt plant, the petitioners/plaintiffs appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Orange County (Nicolai, J.), dated May 15, 2008, which denied the petition and dismissed the proceeding.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.

The petitioners/plaintiffs commenced this hybrid proceeding and action to challenge a determination of the Planning Board of the Town of Wallkill (hereinafter the Planning Board) which granted E. Tetz and Sons, Inc., a special use permit and conditional final site plan approval in connection with the construction of an asphalt plant asserting, inter alia, that the approvals were granted despite the Planning Board’s failure strictly to comply with the State Environmental Quality Review Act (ECL art 8). We dismiss the appeal as academic for the reasons stated in our decision and order on a companion appeal (see Matter of Wallkill Cemetery Assoc. v Town of Wallkill Planning Bd., 73 AD3d 1189 [2010] [decided herewith]). Fisher, J.P., Balkin, Roman and Sgroi, JJ., concur.
