Terry, Town Clerk FROM: Bennett Orlowski, Jr. , Chairman TV'/6 Members of the Planning Board RE: Petition for Change of Zone of Southold Villas for change from "A-C" to "AHD" on property located north of SR 25, approximately 1108' east of Ackerly Pond Lane, Southold. SCTM # 1000-070-01-06. Date: March 27, 1990 The Planning Board wishes to go on record as opposing this change of zone application. The following is the Planning Board's resolution of March 26, 1990. WHEREAS the Town Board is holding a public hearing on the change of zone petition of Southold Villas, Inc. , to change the zone of 18.021 acres from Agricultural-Conservation to Affordable Housing District, BE IT RESOLVED That the Planning Board feels that this affordable housing project should not be approved at this time. The reasons for this recommendation are as follows: 1. There are serious problems inherent in the affordable housing legislation as represented by the Affordable Housing District section of the Zoning Code, and the current legislation grants a developer considerable economic incentive to provide affordable housing, but also puts the Town at the risk of losing these lots to the real estate market seven years after they are created. As a result, the Town will be forced to continually downzone properties to half-acre density throughout the Town in order to meet the affordable housing need. The Planning Board feels that once desireable, affordable housing is created, it should be permanent. This Board is concerned, also, by the precedent that has been set by the DBM Affordable Housing Project, otherwise known as Highpoint Meadows. At present, the Town has no enforceable guarantee that the affordable housing will be built on the affordable lots in this subdivision. It is quite possible that some of the buyers of these lots will sell them on the open market after holding the land for seven years. 2. The Board is concerned about concentrating too much affordable housing in one hamlet. At present, thirty nine lots are proposed to be created in Greenport, and twenty eight lots have been created in Southold. It is felt that affordable housing should be made available throughout the entire Town. However, the Town has not made any determinations as to how many and what type of affordable housing units are needed; nor how many units should be located within each hamlet. A clear policy statement of goals and objectives should be drafted to guide the Town Board and the Planning Board in its efforts to provide affordable housing for Town residents. 414'7s�171;(r� PLANNING BOARD MEMBERS '. ::§ SCOTT L.

The Board feels that the change of zone, if approved, should be subject to conditions that would require the housing to remain affordable for a minimum of 30 years from its construction, if not longer. The Planning Board also feels that the price is to be covenanted as stated in the applicant's proposal. These conditions should be filed as covenants and restrictions on the land.

P.O. BOX 292 CALVERTON. NEW YOP~K 11933 (516) 727-0433 PART I: AFFORDABLE SINGLE-FAMILY HOMEOWNERSHIP PLAN New Century Corporation plans a comprehensive affordable homeownership development for the Town of Southold. in which 1004 of the single-family units wlll be affordable to local moderate-Income residents. The balance of Southold Villas will be developed as market rate attached un,ts (condominiums). Families who are currently renting homes in the Town. and young couples who are living w/th their parents, will be able to build new homes within their own community. These homes will be built in a new subdivision which will be developed at a modest yield of one-half acre per house. Building lots will be sold to participants in accordance with Southold's Affordable Housing District (AHD) Code provisions. In addition, New Century Corporation will obtain a New York State Affordable Housing Corporation (AHC) commitment, and wlil offer to build homes for participants with AHC subsidies at consIderably below their expected costs if they build their home without this program_ New Century Corporation will offer each purchaser land acquisition and construct]on financing, together with arrangements for permanent mortgages, and the New York State subsidy. The urgent need for affordable homes in the Town of Sou%hold can best be met by carefully planned production of single-family homes, taking into consideration present land use patterns, zoning, environmental issues, and available public facilities. New Century Corporation will take responsibility for many aspects of this affordable housing program, including state application packaging, applicant screening/qualifying and the participant lottery. 1 We will offer construction of new homes which will be affordable to families with annual incomes ranging from $35,000 to $46.762 (maximum as specified in the AHD regulations). These homes, with land and associated infrastructure improvements, can be sold with NYS Affordable Housing Corporation subsidies of $25.000 per unit for pro3ected final selling prices of $68,500 to $87,500 (Average $78,000). New Century Corporation will prepare the application for New York State Affordable HousinG Corporation Assistance, on behalf of the Town. This proposed program will allow the Town of Southold. in cooperation with private enterprise, to work together on the provision of affordable homes which will be a Great benefit to low-moderate income residents from throughout the Town of Southold. New Century Corporation's affordable homeownership development proposal takes into consideration all relevant planning and land use standards for creation of affordable homeownershlp opportunltles which will be a strong asset to the Southold community. The development will take place on an 18.02 acre tract of land on Main Road. Eighteen (18) affordable building lots will be developed on the eastern portion of the parcel. In order to reduce sate infrastructure costs, we are proposing to cluster this development, with final lot sizes between 10,000 and 15,000 square feet. The western portion of the site wall be developed separately as eighteen (18) attached condomlmlum units. 7~ne homes will be provided with water service from the Greenport Water District. Individual septic systems will be provided for each house. Site drainage/ storm sewerage will be provided within the development. All components are avaIlable to make th~s pro3ect an overwhelming success. Its reliance on public-private partnership will make it a model pro3ect, which other municipalities will want to reproduce across New York Sta%e. New Century Corporation has a strong commitment to building homes which are affordable for low-moderate ancome families to purchase and maintain, wh~le retaining its emphasis on high quality construction. We emphasize designs which achieve harmony with other homes in the locality. Our homes are designed to allow future additaons or modifications to accomodate the needs of growing families. We are currently considering several home models (ranches and capes) which will meet the PequlPements of a comprehensive affordable homeownership program. The homes have been designed to be of low cost both to build and maintain. They are all 3 bedroom models, with 1, l&l/2, or 2 bathrooms. They range in size from 1040 to 1248 square feet. The houses will be provided with full basements. individual septic systems, and full public utility hook-ups. They will be constructed in accordance with high quality specifications, of the best possible building materials. These models have been selected because they are suitable quality home styles for the pro3ect site in Southold. and can be provided at costs which will be affordable for the targeted income range. They will provide affordable homeownership for Southold residents while maintaining integrity in construction standards. Construction will be managed from an on-site office, and will make use of local trades people and material suppliers. New Century Corporation of New York was established in the fall of 1989. by three principals with extensive experience in affordable housing development. All three men are dedicated to the purpose of developing affordable homes in Suffolk County. New Century Corporation is currently conducting pre-development and purchaser-qualifying work for a 35-unit scattered-site affordable homes program in Brookhaven Town, which is slated to obtain a commitment from AHC for $875,000 during the first week of July. President. Michael Johnson has built fifteen homes through his company, M&M Island Supply Corp. (dba Personalized Homes), over the past three years. Mr. Johnson has emphasized provision of affordably priced homes, ranging from $90.000 to $130,000 in Suffolk County. He has been working in the construction/development field for the past eight years. Vice President. L. Von Kuhen has worked in the affordable housing development field for the past nine years. As Director of Adrnlnistation and Development for Suffolk Community Development Corporation (SCDC) and as a private consultant, he has contributed to the successful development of $4.2 million of federally-assisted low-income rental construction. He has also participated in the development of 78 state-assisted affordable homes in the towns of East Hampton and Southold. and was instrumental in the pre-development work and state application packaging for an additional 120 affordable sIngle-family homes planned for the Town of Riverhead. Vice President, George Wieser has over twelve years experience in building material supply and housing development. He is a principal of B.B.&S. Treated Lumber Company of Speonk, N.Y. SEE A/-/JACHED RESUMES (PART 5) FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. 3 PART II : NEED FOR AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITY IN SOUTHOLD One of the strongest needs on Long Island's North Fork. is provision of affordable housing for low and moderate income families who find themselves unable to achieve homeownership in the existing market. Escalating land prices, construction costs, and the existence of a profitable second home market, have lead local builders/developers to build homes which are not affordable to low and moderate income families. Suffolk County has a median annual household income of approxImately $46.000. In comparison, the average cost of a new home is $155,000. a price which requires an annual income of at least $66,000 to afford purchase (Source: Newsday and Long Island Board of Realtors). The Town of Southold has attempted to encourage affordable development by providing density bonuses to developers who offer a percentage of their houses or building lots ak "affordable" cost levels, but no such units have been produced to date. Through donation of Town and county-owned land. the Town has been instrumental in production of 14 affordable homes in con3unction w~th the North Fork Housing Alliance. During the Spring of 1988. the North Fork Housing Alliance conducted a lottery for these 14 scattered-site homes. 210 applications were received, and 161 were found to be qualified applicants. Only fourteen applicants could be served through this program, thus there exists an act=ye waiting list of 147 families who are in need of the assistance which will be provided by our proposed affordable housing development. These are for the most part. young families, with heads of households in their twenties and thirties, and one or two children. They are tradespeople (constructIon trades, truck drivers, etc.i, and professionals (teachers. bank employees, etc.), with incomes ranging from $25,000 %o $45.000 annually. 4 PART III NEW CENTURY CORPORATION OF NEW YORK - SOUTHOLD VILLAS AFFORDABLE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES SUMMARY OF PROPOSED HOUSE MODELS, SIZES AND COSTS MODEL SQ.

NEW CENTURY CORPORATION OF NEW YORK - TOWN OF SOUTHOLD SOUTHOLD VILLAS AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM ANTICIPATED RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TOWN OF SOUTHOLD AS MUNICIPAL SPONSOR AND NEW CENqYRY CORPORATION OF NEW YORK AS DEVELOPER IN THE SOUTHOLD VILLAS AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM QUESTION %1 : WHY WOULD A PRIVATE DEVELOPER PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE'S AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROGRAM? /"ne New York State legislature created the Affordable Homeownership Development Program (AHC) as a means to encourage private builders/developers, as well as local municipalities, to create developments which will allow affordable homeownership for low-moderate income families. The program encourages private developers to locate land at reasonable costs, which can be conveyed to the moderate-income purchaser at reduced cost, because of the availability of $25,000 per unit in state subsidy monies. %"ne developer can forego or considerably reduce developer's profit because of the guaranteed building opportunity. These developments are marketed before construction starts, thus assuring that the builder will have morugage-eligible purchasers available when construction is completed. This assurance allows the builder to certify to profit limitation (15~). which also adds to the affordability of the housing un~tso Furthermore. since the AHC Program provides construction financing, as well as the end-mortgage subsidy, the builder/developer is able to considerably reduce interest expense, another cost savings which is passed on to the end-purchaser. QUESTION ~ 2 : WHAT DOES THE DEVELOPER OFFER THE SPONSOR? New Century Corporation acquires land at lowest possible cost, and makes land available to the program at lowest possible cost. Acquires land acquisition and financing_ construction Obtains permanent mortgage commitments for home purchasers, and assists in processing them through the morugage provider, including administrative support for lotte~-y and screening process. 24 Coordinates all municipal approvals, for subdivision, infrastructure improvements, health department approval, building permits, etcetera. Developer also provides all necessary documenation to obtain fast-tracking status. Prepares the application for state assistance and contract exhibits after the AHC award is obtained, New Century Corporation will also prepare all necessary reports and forms for submission to AHC during construction progress, and will provide such forms to the Town for execution. Proceeds with construction in an orderly basis, following the quickest possible time-line, and will provide monthly reports to the Town on construction progress, including status of municipal building department progress Inspections on each unit. QUESTION ~9 : WHAT ARE THE SPONSOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES? 1. AHC APPLICATION The Town reviews the application, gives input to the development plan (i.e. suggested home models and prices, targeted income range, etc_), and signs final draft for submIssion to AHC. The application will contain a certification in the name of the Town, indicating the eligibility of the project for AHC assistance (see attached sample). 2. PARTICIPANT SCREENING The Town will take responsibility for reviewing participant pre-applications to determine eligibility and priorities, then preappilcations will be turned over to the developer for credit checks and processing for mortgage approvals. The Town will also conduct a lottery for eligible and mortgageable participants, and will maintain an on-going waiting list. RECEIPT AND DISBURSEMENT OF AHC FUNDS The Town will be responsible for receipt and disbursement of AHC grant funds during construction. An escrow agreement will be established with the construction lender, so AHC funds will be drawn down in one lump sum. and disbursements will be conducted by the construction lender. as authorized by the Town. 25 4. MONITORING AND ON-GOING WAITING LIST The Town w~ll be respons/ble for mon/toring conformance with AHC recapture requirements through the ten year recapture period. This will entail sending out annual letters to the homeowners for documentat/on that they still reside in the homes obtained through the program. If participants sell their homes during the first ten years. the Town shall recommend new eligible purchasers from their wa~ting list_ QUESTION ~4 : W%tAT TIME AND FINANCIAL COMMITI~ENT MUST THE SPONSOR MAKE TO THE PROGRAM? ACTIVITY ~1 - AHC APPLICATION - The Town will review and g/ye input to the application. Resolutions and Certifications can be passed during the Town Board's regularly scheduled meetings. New Century Corporation will pay costs ~or document preparation. reproduction and ma/ling. ACTIVITY %2 - PARTICIPANT SCREENING - It is anticipated that one or two representatives of the Town may have a special /nterest in the program, and a desire to participate in screening of pre-applications. New Century Corporation will prepare pre-screening forms which will allow the review to proceed in an orderly basis. The lottery can be conducted during a publicly-open meeting of the Town, w/th volunteers drawing names out or a drtnn and t,-rlting down names in the sequence they are drawn. Th~s list will be maintained on file w/th the Town for a minimurn of ten years, with periodic updates as necessary. The Town may want to send out letters to people on the waiting list every year or two to assure that they are still eligible and interested. This would require some volunteer or paid clerical staff time. plus the costs for typing. reproduction and postage. New Century Corporat/on will pay costs for printing, newspaper advertising, and other costs associated with pre-applications and screening. These amounts will be paid out of the Developer's overhead, with no effect on the price to purchasers. 26 ACTIVITY ~ 3 - RECEIPT AND DISBURSEMENT OF AHC FUNDS Through adoption of an escrow agreement between the Town. the construction lender and AHC, the Town will be able to turn these administrative responsibilities over to the construction lender. The Town will receive periodic reports from the construction lender so they can monitor disbursement of funds. New Century Corporation will prepare all relevant AHC forms for review and submission by the Town. ACTIVITY ~ 4 - MONITORING AND ON-GOING WAITING LIST The Town will send out letters to participants on an annual basis to confirm that they are still residing in their houses. Should a participant wish to sell their house, the Town will recommend eligible purchasers from their waiting list. As indicated above, the list may requ:re periodic updating during the ten year recapture period. 27 I hereby grant ~he TOwn of Sou=hold a two week extension, until May 22, 1990, tn re~arence ~o =ha ~eciaion ~or a change o~ zone pe%ition of Southold villas to an "AKD" Affordable ~ousing Dl~triat. Town Board and Sour.hold Town Planninq Boar~ %0 r~solve any problems or//concmrn$ you may D. ave concernln~ the abo,:e petition. Isaac soutb, ul~ Vill~m, Inc. Mr. Scott L. Harris Village Lane Orient, N. Y. 11957 Dear Mr. Harris: I want to go on record as opposing the down zoning of Southold Villas 18 acres to an affordable housing district. This is not to say I am opposed to affordable housing. I am opposed to the to the way it is being done and the damage it would cause. My reasons are as follows: 1. The developer will not produce any housing units. Ail he has to do is sell the lots at a specified price. There may never be any housing to come out of this. All the lot owner needs to do is sit on it for six years and then sell it for whatever the market will bring. A hadsom no-risk profit. 2. The cesspool sewage from all these units will drain into Jockey Creek. 3. The traffic from all these units will creat a severe problem. 4. The project will put a severe load on our already troubled water system. 5.Our open space dream would be desroyed. We all went to great lenghthsto have two acrs zoning. We would now have 1/4 acre lots. Of cours all of this will negate the much-heralded master plan. 6. And, of course, we would have higher school taxes. That's all we need to drive more people away from the area. 7. The value of all real estate in the area would be severely depressed. Many of thes~ properties are long established--up to 100 years. It would be a travesty to have a good part of the value of these properties destroyed. Since the developer will not produce any housing units, why not make Southold Town the developer? Let's say the Town buys 18 acres at $10,000. per acre -- $180,000. The Town then sells 18 lots at $25,000. -- $450,000. The balance of the land can be open space. Not a bad deal for the taxpayer. The only one who comes out well under the proposed plan is the developer. Please vote against this down zoning and come up with a comprehensive plan. Sincerely yours, April 3. 1990 To: Town of Southold Dear Town Board and Planning Board Members: I wanted to take this opportunity to provide some observations on the affordable housing situation in the Town of Southold. As several of you are aware. I have worked in the affordable housing field for the past nine years, first as Director of Administration and Development for Suffolk Community Development Corporation (Coram), and then, for the past two years, as a private consultant. I have been involved with numerous affordable homeownership programs which received assistance from the New York State Affordable Housing Corporation (AHC) (see attached list). This has included the 14 scattered-site homes in Southold. both phases of Whalebone Woods in East Hampton, and the proposed 120 unit project in R~verhead. Most recently. I have joined with New Century Corporation (our offices are in Riverhead, not Manhattan ) to prepare an affordable housing plan for the Southold Villas development. I am not specifically wr}ting to provide support for the Southold Villas development, (I have enclosed a proposal this pro3ect which I believe stands on its own merits), but rather to provide a critical examination of Southold's Affordable Housing District regulations and the pro3ects which have been proposed under these reaulatlons. The Town's current legislation provides a strong basis for a comprehensive affordable housing proaram. The strongest problem to date is that the limitations on lot price and house price make it very difficult for a developer to make a pro3ect economically feasible without the additional assistance which can be provided through the At{C program. These restrictions have led one developer to propose building 39 identical 850 square foot homes which will sell for $09,900 each; while another proposes selling lots for $30.000 to households with enough assets in the bank ($30,000 - $45,000) to allow them to build a house for $125.000 or more. Neither of these proposals will serve the population which is most in need of affordable homes in $outhold. When the Town conducted the lottery for the 14 scattered-site homes, 210 applications were received, and 161 of the applicants were deemed eligible for an affordable housing program. These are for the most part young families living in the Town of $outhold, with heads of households in their twenties and thirties and w~th one or two children. They are tradespeople (construction, truck drivers, etc.) and professionals Cteachers, bank employees, etc.) w~th incomes ranging from $18,000 to $40.000. the bulk of these families have little savln~s: 56% have less than $5.000 ~n the bank. What these families need i~ an affordable housing proJram which will considerably reduce their home purchase cost. and they need a variety of home costs (and styles) to reach different incomes and household situations. A range of home purchase prices from $68.000 to $88.000 will serve incomes from the high 20's to the low The Town of Southold's current AHD legislation can be made use of to support such a program. The Code clearly states (Section 100-55.6) that the developer must submit a Preliminary Development Concept Plan for a specific project to the Town Board. The Developer should be made responsible for delineating the income levels which will be served by the development. In addition, the developer should be made responsible for delineating the actual sales cost of the homes to be developed, and this should be a ranae of prices to meet the existing range of incomes of affordable home seekers in the Town. Finally. the AHD legislation sets a limit on the initial sales price of each home to the original purchaser. There is no reason why the Developer should not be required to at least attempt participation in the State's AHC program. Availability of the $25.000 per unit in subsidy allows substantial reduction in the end cost to the home purchaser. It also makes the affordable housina development much more feasible in today's economy. Homes can be made available at an average price of at least $10,000 to $12.000 less than Southold's current maximum sales price limits, A final point on continued affordabillty of the homes. The Town can utilize its Preliminary Development Concept Plan review to designate the type of covenants and restrictions which should be placed on the homes developed under the program. The Town can choose whether this will abide by the 7 year restriction contained in the current code, or whether this period is extended to 10 years, 25 years, or whatever, depending on the particular pro3ect and the desires of the Town. I have attached a memorandum which describes one way of handling this for a 25 year term, but in the ~inal analysis, %he Town has alot of leeway in this regard. Thank you for this your deliberations on the housing. opportunity to provide input to important ~ssue of affordable Lake Ronkonkoma. N.Y. (516) 467-4864 BUILDING AND DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCE L.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT FOR THE TOWN OF $OUTHOLD SITE LOCATION: HAMLET OF $OUTHOLD (SOUTHOLD VILLAS) PROPOSAL PRESENTED BY NEW CENTURY CORPORATION OF N.Y. AFFORDABLE SINGLE-FAMILY HOM~OWNERSHIP PLAN New Century Corporation plans a comprehensive affordable homeownership development for the Town of $outhold, in which 100% of the single-family units will be affordable to local moderate-income residents. The balance of Southold Villas will be developed as market rate attached units (condominiums). Families who are currently renting homes in the Town, and young couples who are living with their parents, will be able to purchase new homes within their own community. These homes will be built in a new subdivision which will be developed at a modest yield of one-half acre per house. The urgent need for affordable homes in the Town of $outhold can best be met by carefully planned production of single-family homes, taking into consideration present land use patterns, zoning, environmental issues, and available public facilities. Affordable home developers must also be expected to provide a contribution toward the administrative costs of the development, to cover such costs as state application packaging, applicant screening and lottery, and on-going program monitoring. Our development plan calls for construction of new homes which will be affordable to families with annual incomes ranging from $34,000 to $42,000. These homes, with land and associated infrastructure improvements, will be sold with NYS Affordable Housing Corporation subsidies of $25,000 per unit for projected final s~lllng prices of $68,500 to $87,500 (Average $78,000). New Century Corporation will prepare the application for New York State Affordable Housing Corporation Assistance. on behalf of the Town. This proposed program will allow the Town of Southold, in cooperation with private enterprise, to work together on the provision of affordable homes which will be a great benefit to low-moderate income residents from throughout the Town of Southold_ -1- New Century Corporation's affordable homeownership development proposal takes into consideration all relevant planning and land use standards for creation of affordable homeownership opportunities which will be a strong asset to the Southold community. The development will take place on an 18.02 acre tract of land off Main Road. Eighteen (18) affordable building lots will be developed on the eastern portion of the parcel. In order to reduce site infrastructure costs, we are proposing to cluster this development, with final lot sizes between 10,000 and 15,000 square feet. The western portion of the site will be developed separately as eighteen (18) attached condomlmium units. The homes will be provided with water service from the Greenport Water District. Individual septic systems will be provided for each house. Site drainage/ storm sewerage will be provided within the development. All components are available to make this project an overwhelming success. Its reliance on public-private partnership will make it a model pro3ect, which other municipalities will want to reproduce across New York State. New Century Corporation has a strong commitment to building homes which are affordable for low-moderate income families to purchase and maintain, while retaining its emphasis on high quality construction. We emphasize designs which achieve harmony with other homes in the locality. Our homes are designed to allow future additions or modifications to accomodate the needs of growing families. We are currently considering three (3) home models (ranch. cape and salt box) which will meet the requirements of a comprehensive affordable homeownership program. The homes have been designed to be of low cost both to build and maintain. They are all 3 bedroom models, with 1. l&l/2, or 2 bathrooms. They range in square footage from 1040 to 1248 square feet. The houses will be provided with full basements, individual septic systems, and full public utility hook-ups. They will be constructed in accordance with high quality specifications, of the best possible building materials. These models have been selected because they are suitable quality home styles for the project site in Southo]d, and can be provided at costs which will be affordable for the targeted income range_ They will provide affordable homeownership for Southold residents while maintaining integrity in construction standards. Construction will be managed from an on-site office, and will make use oS local trades people and material suppliers. -2- New Century Corporation is a newly created New York State corporation which br/ngs together three principals with extensive experience in affordable hous/ng development. President, Michael Johnson has built fifteen homes through his company, M&M Island Supply Corp. (dba Personalized Homes). over the past three years. Mr. Johnson has emphasized provision of affordably pr/ced homes, ranging from $90.000 to $130,000 in Suffolk County. He has been working in the construction/development f~eld for the past eight years. Vice President. L. Von Kuhen has worked in the affordable housing development field for the past eight years. As Director of Administatlon and Development for Suffolk Community Development Corporation (SCDC) and as a private consultant, he has contr/buted to the successful development of $4.2 million of federally-assisted low-income rental construction. He has also participated in the development of 78 state-assisted affordable homes in the towns of East Hampton and Southold, and has been instrumental in the pre-development work for an additional 202 affordable single-family homes planned for the Town of Riverhead. Vice President, George Wieser has over twelve years experience in building material supply and housing development. He is a principal of B.B.&S. Treated Luntber Company of Speonk, N.Y. All three men are dedicated to the purpose of developing affordable homes in Suffolk County, -3- _NEED FOR AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITY IN $OUTHOLD One of the strongest needs on Long Island's North Fork, is provision of affordable housing for low and moderate income families who find themselves unable to achieve homeownership in the existing market. Escalating land prices, construction costs, and the existence of a profitable second home market, have lead local builders/developers to build homes which are not affordable to low and moderate income families. Suffolk County has a median annual household income of approximately $46,000. In comparison, the average cost of a new home is $155.000, a price which requires an annual income of at least $66.000 to afford purchase (Source: Newsday and Long Island Board of Realtors). The Town of $outhold has attempted to encourage affordable development by providing density bonuses to developers who offer a percentage of their houses or building lots at "affordable" cost levels, but no such units have been produced to date. Through donation of Town and county-owned land, the Town has been instrumental production of 14 affordable homes in conjunction with the North Fork Housing Alliance. During the Spring of 1988, the North Fork Housing Alliance conducted a lottery for these 14 scattered-site homes. 210 applications were received, and 161 were found to be qualified applicants. 0nly fourteen applicants could be served through this program, thus there exists an active waiting list of 147 families who are in need of the assistance which will be provided by our proposed affordable housing development. These are for the most part. young families, with heads of households in their twenties and thirties, and one or two children. They are tradespeople (construction trades, truck drivers, etc.), and professionals (teachers. bank employees, etc.), with incomes ranging from $34,000 to $42.000 annually. -4- NEW CENTURY CORPORATION OF NEW YORK - SOUTHOLD VILLAS AFFORDABLE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES SUMMARY OF PROPOSED HOUSE MODELS, SIZES AND COSTS MODEL SQ.

VON KUHEN This memo considers a means for assuring that homes developed through an affordable housing program remain affordable through time. for a minimum of 25 to 30 years. This scenario accepts the NYS Affordable Housing Corporation (AHC) recapture provisions. Within the let 5 years, the seller would have to repay (or transfer to the new purchaser) the entire $25,000 subsidy. In subsequent years. 20% of the subsidy is forgiven on an annual basis (thus becoming a grant, and part of the owner's contribution toward the house purchase). After the 10th, year, the entire subsidy is forgiven. This plan also works in conjunction with the County of Suffolk suggested resale provisions (see excerpt. Exhibit attached), and accepts the same basic principle, i.e. upon resale. the house sales price is limited to "a percentage of the home's market value as determined by the ratio of the home's original purchase price to its appraised market value at the time of original purchase," Our scenario ads two additional variables to the formula: 1) ~t accounts for the decreasing responsibility to AHC after year five. and 2) it allows the homeowner to obtain a profit return on their investment in improvements or additions to the property. { Note : The Suffolk County formula also suggests that the local municipality (or non-profit sponsor) shall have 60 days in which to locate a purchaser for the house, and the County the subsequent 60 days. If the Town and County cannot find a purchaser within 120 days, the homeowner can sell the house, paying any excess in value back to the town for future affordable housing efforts.} Explanation: Language will be included in the deed which limits the re-sale price of the house to the ratio/percentage of the homeowner's contribution to the appraised market value of the house. This deed provision will remain in effect for the same term as the homepurchaser's mortgage (25 to 30 years). This plan will assure that the homes remain affordable, while at the same time. providing a uniform increase in proflts to the homepurchaser based on their original contribution to the house. It encourages the homeowner to remain in the house in order to gain more equity and profits as the AHC subsidy ~s forgiven, q"ne house will gain steadily in value, with a life time affordabllity cap at 74.8~ of market value. Erfect on Original Purchaser: This analysis is based on an estimated subsidized sales price of a house at $76,000. The format would work in a similar manner for houses priced differently. An appraised value in 1990 on this house is estimated at $135.000. For subsequent years, an annual increase in home appraised value is estimated at 4~. As the house pains in value, the homeseller receives a profit based on his/her contribution to the purchase of the house. Thus. durin~ year 5. when the house value has increased 22~. the home seller receives a 224 profit on his/her original contribution of $76,000. In subsequent years, the home seller's pro,it ~s always based d~rectly on the increased value of the house. As they stay in the house longer, and the AHC subsidy is forgiven, they also receive a percentage profit on the subsidy amount - 1.e., by year 10. their contribution is considered $101,000 or 74.8~ of the original home value. If the homeowner pays for improvements or additions to their house, the dollar amount expended on these ~tems can also be added ~nto the formula, so they will also receive a return on this Investment. Effect on New Purchaser/Continued Affordability: Thoughout the first five years, the home re-sale price will remain at 56.3~ of market value. In subsequent years, th~s percentage slowly moves up to 74.~. where it remains throughout the life of the house - based on the homeowner's contribution, plus AHC subsidy.. as described above.

Harris Village Lane Orient, NY 11957 Dear Scott: I want to go on record as opposing the down zoning of Southold Villas. This is not to say I am opposed to affordable housing. My son is on the list of affordable housing applicants. I am opposed to the way it is being done. My reasons are as follows: 1. The developer will not produce any housing units. Ail he has to do is sell the lots at the specified price. There may never be any housing to come out of this. All the lot owner needs to do is sit on it for six years and then sell it for whatever the market will bring. A handsome no-risk profit. 2- The cesspool sewage from all these units will drain into Jockey Creek. 3. The traffic from all these units will present a severe problem. 4. The project will put a severe load on our already troubled water system. 5. Our open space dream ~{ould be damaged. We all went to great lengths to have two-acre zoning. We would now have ~{-acre lots. Of course, all of this is negating the much-heralded master plan. 6. And, of course, we would have higher school taxes. That's all we need to drive more people away from the area. 7. The value of all real estate in the area would be severely depressed. Many of these properties are long established -- up to 100 years. It would be a travesty to have a good part of the value of these properties destroyed. Since the developer will not produce any housing units, why nob make Southold To%~n the developer? Let's say the To~n buys 18 acres at $10,000. per acre -- $180,000. The Town then sells 18 lots at $25,000. -- $450,000. The balance of the land can be opes space. Not a bad deal for the taxpayer. The only one who comes out well under the proposed plan is the developer. Please vote against this down zoning and come up with a comprehensive plan. As Jim McMahon said (see enclosed the entire text of his comments), "We need to sit down and look at ~;hat our intent is so far as affordable housing goes, and take the steps necessary to bring it about." Why wasn't this "looked at" a long time ago? Sincerely yours, Russell E. Mann Encls. Mr. Scott L. Harris Village Lane Orient, N.

Is there anybody who would like to speak on behalf of this, or against this public hearing on affordable housing? Yes, sir? MERLON WIGGON: Merlon Wiggon, Peconic Association. As you know, the planning parade for affordable housing projects is a long, long road, and often a difficult one. The planning for this particular project started in August of 1987 by meeting with the Planning Board, and getting a conceptual idea of the design and layout. Since that time, we've gone through several different plans, layouts with the Planning Board. We~ve gone through a complete environmental impact statement, which was submitted to the Town Board, and we had public hearing on it not too long ago. We've, also, been very consious of imputs from members of the local community. During the last public hearing, one the principal things was concern that the buffer areas were not large enough. Since that time, we've Pg 3 - PH Southold Villas, lo~, taken those recommendations, which were made primarily by the North Fork Environmental Council, and we've increased the buffer areas, and revised the site plans, resubmitted to you and to the Planning Board. I know the Town has been very anxious for a long time to have some affordable housing in the Town, so that the working level parts of people can have a place where they can afford to build and to live. This is one of the three projects, that have been started in the Town. None of the others have reached a stage were everyone started building. This one, although it's small, only eighteen units, probably will come the closest to meeting the demands of affordable housing, because it's for lots rather a developer building houses. This particular aspect is also going to addressed by the owner of the property, and also by his assistant, who is working with the Town, and with the applicant to make grants to make these lots more affordable, and I hope that the Town will react favorable towards this application. Thank you. COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: Merl, how many acres is that? It escapes me. What is it, about 32? MERLON WIGGON: Thirty-seven acres. COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: And it's eighteen affordable..you're proposed eighteen multi.. ? MERLON WIGGON: Eighteen townhouses. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Anybody else? Yes? KEVIN MCLAUGHLIN: My name is Kevin McLaughlin. I'm here this evening representing Flower Hill Building Corporation, which owns 27 acre parcel immediately adjacent to the subject parcel. I've been before the Board before. We're here, not in opposition to this application, but merely to put on record that if an affordable housing zone is given to the $outhold Villas project, we will be coming in and seeking a similar application for a change of zone on our parcel immediately to the south. Thank you. DAVID MUDD: David Mudd. I own a piece of property just north of the tracks of this particular piece of property. I have a very strong feeling about affordable housing, in my own particular case, because I was raised in St. Louis, and up to the about the second year of high school, our family lived in four-family flats, very affordable, very nice, very affordable for the group or the area, and 1 think this area needs this kind of housing. I for one, if it goes beyond what this area needs, I would say that the property adjacent to it or next to it, should also be included. I think primarily the area needs this kind of housing, and I think we should get the point where we agree that this has to be done. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you for your comments. Is there anybody else on the left, that would like to speak? We'll move to the middle. VON KUHEN: My name is Von Kuhen, and I'm here representing New Century Corporation of New York. We've joined on with Southold Villas, Inc., and to build out this project we've put together an affordable home plan, which we think that the Town as a whole will find quite attractive. I know that the affordable housing overlay design in the Town of Southold has met with difficulty with some people saying it doesn't quite work the way it was supposed to work. What we've done is put together a plan, which we think will make it work. One of the key points to that plan is us, as a development company, putting together an application Pg 4 - PH Southold Villas, In-. for the New York State Affordable Housing Corporation to receive State subsidize for these houses in the amount of $25,000.00 per unit. What we expect to do is bring down the average cost per house to $78,000.00, which far exceeds that it's getting for well, what the Town's current price level is for an affordable house. Southold Villas is willing to provide the lots at the affordable price, that's printed in the Code, and the houses will come into the price below the level indicated in the Code. The houses will be targeted to families with annual income ranging from $34,000.00 to $42,000.00, which will be people who can afford the mortgages on these houses. As I've said, the average price will be $78,000.00 with units ranging in price from $68,500 to $87,500. The houses will be an average size of 1144 square feet, which is significantly beyond the minimum requirements in the Code, and range from 1,040 to 1,248 square feet. All these houses will be three bedroom houses with one or two bathrooms, stick-built construction of very high quality with home styles, which will be similar to homes which already exist in surrounding communities, traditional designs, ranches, capes, houses which will meet with the Code. Basically, what this plan is allowing us to do is to make use of Southold Affordable Code, and not abuse the Affordable Code, which some people are seeing happen in the Town, and we believe that's it's put together in affordable package, that you can be proud of. COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: I have two questions. Will you be working with the Town of Southold through our Community Development Program, our Community Development Director within the creteria established by the Code to solicit the applicants? You'll be working directly with Jim McMahon, and with the Town? VON KUHEN: What we would do is establish a marketing plan with Town input, as to exactly how the project would be marketed, and a lottery would be conducted under Town observation. COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: The second question I have is, you said that there was a $25,000 grant, which would bring the price of the house to $78,000, then is it correct that the total price of the house will be $103,0007 VON KUHEN: That's true. The actual development cost of the house would be at that level, but it will be sold to the home purchaser at the $78,000. I should also say that, I worked in conjunction with the County to create deed restriction language, which can allow us to have these houses currently affordable. We've up to the thirty year term of the person's mortgage, that buys the house, which we're willing to do as developers, I understand. That's also, been a concern that the current Code only restricts it for seven years. We'll go beyond that. TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: Isn't there some restriction on the $25,000.00 grant per unit, that really makes it part of the cost? We're engaging in a fiction. In other words, what l'm saying is, you say the cost is $103,000. I believe our present Code would put us, with the cost of living, would put us somewhere at the $89,000, $90,000 range, if I'm not mistaken. I think it's at $89,000 as the maximum cost, and I think the Code says cost. I'd like to know how you reconcil that, especially with the fact that doesn't the State actually have a lien on the premises for the $28,000. for a fixed period of time. So that in reality, if one were to sell it, isn't the value, then, $103,000 and not the $25,0007 VON KUHEN: No, because you can control the resale price of the house with covenant restrictions, and covenant restrictions require that the house be resold to somebody who's on the existing list in the Town, who has already been pre- qualified for an affordable purchase. Other than the problem with economics of why some people have complained that the Affordable Code isn't working, is the problem of economics. In the $89,000 price, actually isn't even affordable to the income levels that we want to hit with the program like this. If you want Pg 5 - PH Southold Villas, I~~ to bring it even further down than that price, I personally don't believe that without the assistance of the State Affordable Housing Program, that we can make affordable homes really available. For the economics to work, you need to have a true construction cost, that can build a house, can buy the land at a reasonable cost, not an unreasonable cost, and still provide an affordable house. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: I'd just like to remind the audience that we are to listen, that we are not entering into debate or discussion on this matter. I think there was some clarification, that was just brought up by the Town Attorney. COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Do you have any insurances from the State, that you will receive these grants7 YON KUHEN: At this point the State program is not on competative basis. The application would have to be submitted. The State would make a funding decision come June. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you, I'll move on to the next speaker. Come forward, please. RUSSELL MANN: Supervisor, members of the Board. My name is Mann. Russell E. Mann. I live at 51435 Main Road, Southold. I think that this hearing should be terminated right now, because the law has not been complied with. Section 100-292 says, that the owners of land immediately adjacent to the property to be re-zoned must be receive a registered certified mail, in accordance with which their names appear on the current Assessors' roll, live immediately adjacent, that I have talked with, I didn't receive one, and I've been there for five people have lived there for twenty-five and thirty out of order until it's done according to the law. and none of the people who have received such a notice. years, and some of the other years, I think the whole things This is the Town Code. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Mr. Mann, I'm informed by our Town Clerk, that she has certified letters, that these were sent out back in 19118. RUSSELL MANN: That's not what the notice in the paper says. The notice in the paper says it's February 20, 1990. TOWN CLERK TERRY: That notification, that you're speaking of, has nothing to do with now. That has to do with the time, that the applicant files the petition for the change of zone, which I believe was in 1988, and he was required to notify all his adjacent property owners, which he did, and file an affidavit with me proving that he did. As far as this public hearing goes, there is no require- ment, that they must notify their adjacent property owners. The legal notice is what covers it in the newspaper for this hearing. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: The next speaker can come forth, and state your name for the record. JOAN MANN: My name is Joan Mann, and again, I live on the Main Road, and I'd like to know why the notice in the newspaper stated, people who owned property twenty-five years ago, fifteen years ago. It's supposed to be from an updated tax census. I mean it's ridiculous. Our notice in the paper said from Arthur Gordon. He owned the house, I believe about twenty years ago. I mean, that's ridiculous. You have to be updated about things. I'm sorry. It's wrong, com- pletely wrong to send out notices like that, and it went all the way down the street, the same way. Kay owned her house for twenty-five years. It was in her mother's name, the notice in the newspaper. Come on. Pg $ - PH Southold Villas, Inr TOWN CLERK TERRY: That's the legal description, that the applicant filed with his petition. JOAN MANN: It's totally wrong. It's illegal. TOWN CLERK TERRY: I didn't prepare that legal description. JOAN MANN: I'm saying, it's signed by you. It says your name. TOWN CLERK TERRY: Yes. I published it on behalf of the Town Board, the legal notice. JOAN MANN: I feel that you should have looked into it, to see what was going on. TOWN CLERK TERRY: Why didn't somebody speak to me about this, before this? JOAN MANN: Why didn't somebody look at it before this and correct the right names? TOWN CLERK TERRY: All I can say is, that's the description that the applicant filed with the petition. I have the affidavit, also. TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: May I, Mr. Supervisor? The description is what's called in the law a metes and bounds description. It is a deed description to the premises. It is hardly ever in the law updated. The notice, unless one has a new survey done showing neighbors and events of the conveyance, the metes and bounds description is not the notice requirement. The notice requirement of the statute was satisfied back in 1988, as Mrs. Terry told you. This is merely a legal description of what the property looks like, so many feet by so and so, and so many feet by so and so. That's what I'm reading right here. JOAN MANN: May I ask, what would happen, if you sent your tax notices to Arthur Gordon, who died twenty years ago, and all the other dead ones. I'm sorry, you're wrong. I'm very proud to own my property, and I pay my taxes, and I think the notice should be sent to me, and my name should be in the news- paper. I, also would like to know why there was no map or new survey before yesterday morning. I came down, and it was the old map. I had been told as of yesterday afternoon, that it changed. There was no time for everybody else to go and look at it. If there was a change, it should have been ahead of time. I was at the office to look at it, and it was the old map, not the new one. Some- one called and said that there was a new survey there yesterday afternoon. (Tape change) notice, and that had everything in, the wrong names in the newspaper. I don't think it was an up and forward thing to do. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you. Is there anybody else, who would like to comment at this time? Yes, would you come forward, please? DOUGLAS PEIX: My name is Doug Peix. I own a house on Main Road, number 50605. I'm not in support of this, by down-zoning on this property. Probably my biggest concern speaks to the reality of the adjacent parcel, which is even larger, they're going to make the same application. I feel it would be wiser for the Zoning Board to evaluate all of the parcels at one time, rather than to piece- meal approve smaller chunks. I'm concerned about the watershed, the water that goes into the Jockey Creek Inlet, and I'm very worried about traffic conges tion. This parcel will have only one way in and out, and I think that the traffic Pg 7 - PH Southold Villas, Inr is going to be quite bad. I'm, also, concerned about the exaggerated demand on water resources. I have brought a letter, two additional letters from friends, who live in Mattituck, who were not able to be at the meeting, and I hope I can give these letters to you. I did receive by fax a portion of the new plan, and I'd like to address it. In regard to the proposal, I'm glad to see a buffer zone, but the buffer zone seems to be in general consistently 50 feet from the property line. In my opinion, I don't think it's fairly applied, because some existing lots on the Main Road are much shallower, than others, so as you apply the 50 foot buffer zone makes one house, for example, the old Young house, will be within 100 feet of a new lot. Whereas, the house just of the north of it, will be 160 feet away. I feel that lot #1 should located to the west of lot ~3. I would ask if the Zoning Department approves this plan, or a variation of this plan, I would hope that you would demand that the developer plant evergreen trees in the buffer zone before the down-zoning is granted, so that we're guaranteed that there is some protection between this much denser development and the existing houses. I'd, also, like to suggest that I think the developers should be encouraged to switch the position of the affordable housing units, and the expensive units. I think the expensive units would benefit by being closer to the Main Road near the old historic houses, that exist, and they would also take advantage of the better landscaping and existing trees and shrubs. I think that's it. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you. Yes? Come forward, please? RONNIE WACKER: Ronnie Wacker. I'm President of the North Fork Environmental Council. I was waiting, because I wasn't sure of where I belong. I'm not for or against. Last night the Planning Board disapproved of the down-zoning of the 18 acres in Southold from A-Residential and Agricultural to AHD Affordable Housing, and I'm not here to ask you to approve or deny the application. NFEC has recommended ways in which the project, if it should go through, might be made more environmentally sound and attractive, and the applicant and his consultant have incorporated to change it. I think the project has improved, but we've been having some second thoughts about the whole idea of affordable housing. We'd like to pass these thoughts on to you. There are a number of affordable housing projects suggested for the Town, and it seems that in this present real estate market, the word is that's the only game in town is affordable housing. The way the law is written the property need be held only seven years, and then it can be sold for whatever the market will bear. Seven years is not a long time to wait for a sizable profit, and then the property is no longer affordable. What we ask the Town Board to do is to review the law, so that it does not offer as great an opportunity for personal profit. This may eliminate the private investor, except in certain circumstances, then maybe this can be worked out, you know, between the Town and an investor. As it is now, it's seems to me that it can't really work that way. The Town however, has a need, undenyable for affordable housing and the Town, also, doesn't have to make a profit. It ought to put it's money were it's mouth is. Sell it at Iow prices to those who are ellegible. Really the Town ought to decide what it needs in affordable housing. We've been approaching this in a backwards way, you know, saying we want affordable housing, and whoever comes up we'll decide whether this fits the mold, whether it fits the law, but we should have a vision of how many units of affordable housing do we need? Let's think about that first, and then decide where all of these units, or these projects fit. Not first, well, affordable housing is a good thing, and so of course, we ought to have it. The law needs reviewing, so those most in need will benefit, and the Town will not suffer a pressure of high density housing. This is the way it goes. You know, the little towns to the west of us had the same problem. They just end up raising taxes for the services, that will have cost fees required, and they'll make the area indistinguishable from the suburban sprawl of the western towns at the other end of the island. I think maybe, what we ought to do is call a halt right now. This is not to say that Pg 8 - PH Southold Villas, In~- this project is not good, but I think we are approaching the whole thing ass backwards. Let's decide how much we need and then after a suitable review figure how these all work in, and what the accumulative impact will be. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you for your comments. Ellen? COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: I would like to comment on a couple of things you've said. Several years ago, when I first came on the Town Board, and when the Costello-Bracken project was beginning, through Jim McMahon and the Community Development Office and the Town Affordable Housing Committee, which consisted of Jean Cochran, myself and Ruth, there was some demographics drawn up as to the location of, by hamlet, income, structure, number of people, etc. and so forth. That was all used in our original housing lottery for the fourteen houses, when we worked with Bessie Swann and the North Fork Housing Alliance. Granted over the past three years, it could change considerable, probably not a lot, but I agree it needs to be revised. Over the past two years, once again, Jean, myself, Ruth, Rob Bernstsson, who was the Assistant Town Attorney at the time under Jay Schondebare, Jim McMahon, and members of the Planning Department, we recognized that within the existing affordable housing law there were certain problems. We met for several months to review the law. Unforturnately Rob Bernstsson left. Jim McMahon came abroad. Matt, our new Assistant Town Attorney came on board, and we've had a switch in personnel within the Town, but the Housing Committee was basically dissolved with the new administration and it hasn't met since last year, which is something that has to be done. So your points are well taken. RONNIE WACKER: We won't know now how many units we need. Do we need a thousand units, three hundred units? SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Excuse me, first of all, it goes through the Chair, but we're not entering into debate here. This is a public hearing on 5outhold Villas. If anyone would like to comment to the Town Board after our public hearings are over, on any subject, whether it be affordable housing, whatever, open space, then you're free to do so. We have certain rules and regulations, that we have to follow, and those are we are receiving comments on a zone change right now to the Town Board from members of the public, who would like to address that subject. Is there anybody else? Yes? RUSSELL MANN: Russell Mann, again. A couple of things. Number one, the affordable housing law, the way it's written provides that the affordable housing lots have to be sold by, I believe, $25,000.00 a piece. There's nothing in the law that says that any housing will ever necessarily have to be built on those lots, so it's quite conceivable, that somebody could buy the lot, sit on it for six years, and sell it for whatever the traffic would bear, and you might not create any affordable housing. Second comment, this is 18 acres, and we just heard this evening that there are 27 acres adjacent to it, that apply to the same sort of rezoning, and I think Dave Mudd sort of said something about maybe he would be open to 48 acres, and I have eight acres next to it. So you'd have a real Levittown there. When I went to subdivide my eight acres, I was asked to take two acre zoning, and several years prior to that we had a big, well we had a referendum on it, the whole town voted to have two acre zoning, because everyone was afraid we were going to end up sounds like we're going to end up now. So, I looked around, and I said, okay, to the south is two acre, and to the east, of course we had existing housing, and then to the west you had two acres. I figured, okay, this will be a nice community with two acre zoning all from the back of our properties all the way up to almost the North Road. Pg 9 - PH Southold Villas, In~ So, I excepted the two acre zoning. Well, you're going to surround me with quarter acre zoning. It's going to downgrade the value of my property, and I don't think it's very reasonable. That's about all I have to say. Obviously, I'm against the project. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you, Mr. Mann. Is there anybody else, that would like to speak? JOAN MANN: You people went through all this bit about the Master Plan. I mean you had so many meetings, that people voted it down, and they were in an uproar, and everything else, and it seems to me all I do is read in the newspaper, that you're changing the zoning of the Master Plan. Why did you bother? I mean, if you want you can come up and say, I would like this or I would that, and the Master Plan is changed. You don't have a Master Plan, the way you wanted it. I mean, it was a nice firm commitment you made, but anybody who wants can come up see you, and say I want a change. You know, I want a change. You know, it's not right. Stick by something that you've done. You spent a lot of money on it, and you've spent a lot of time on it, but all you ever do is change the damn thing. Excuse me. I shouldn't swear, but that's what happens. I mean, I read in the paper every week, and it's different kinds of zoning changing your Master Plan. Come on. This is your big baby. You, yourself are ruining. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Is there anybody else, who would like to speak on this zone change for Southold Villas? (No response.)

A density increase of this magnitude on land that is part, geographical- ly, of the water shed valley and which drains directly into the Jockey Creek inlet is unwise and would be an egregious affront to the efforts to protect our potable water sources and valuable wetlands. Also, permitting such a dense development with only one point of access to Main Road seems to be an example of Town planning lacking in thought and foresight, Please vote this proposal down.

SCTM # 1000-070-01-06 Recommendation for a Negative Declaration Dear Judith: We have completed our review of the record regarding the above referenced Draft Environmental Impact Statement. It is our recommendation that the Board adopt a Negative Declaration in consideration of this project. The SEQR process provides for the completion of the review process without the need for a Final EIS, under Part 617.8(e)(1), which states as follows: No final EIS need be prepared if: (ii) on the basis of the draft EIS, and comments made thereon, the lead agency has determined that the action will not have a significant effect on the environment. A negative declaration must then be prepared and filed in accordance with this Part. Attached, please find draft of the determination for your review and use. The document contains detailed reasons outlining the basis for the Negative Declaration. Thank you for the opportunit~ to be of service to you, and please do not hesitate to call ifvou have any questions, or wish to discuss this matter. Very tml~ yours, CC"harles J. Voorhis enc: Negative Declaration 54 NORTH COUNTRY ROAD MILLER PLACE, NY 11764 (516) 331-1455 SEQR NEGATIVE DECLARATION Notice of Determination of Non-Significance Lead Agency: Town Board of the Town of Southold ~4ddress: Town Hall, 53095 blain Road P.O. Box 1179 Southold, New York 11971 Date: March 5, 1990 This notice is issued pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 617, and local law # Chapter 44, of the implementing regulations pertaining to Article 8 (State Environmental Quality Review) of the Environmental Conservation Law. The lead agency has determined that the proposed action described below will not have a significant effect on the environment. Title o fAction: Southold Villas, Inc. Ackerly Pond Lane, Southold Change of Zone Petition SCTM #1000-070-01-006 SEQR Status: Unlisted Action The project is located on the west side of NYS Route 25, approximately 1,500 feet north of Ackedy Pond Lane, in the Hamlet and Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New York. Project Description: The project involves the proposed rezoning of an 18.021 acre parcel of land from the current "A-C" zoning district (agriculture- conservation, 80,000 square foot lots), to the "AHD" district (affordable homes district), for the purpose of constructing eighteen (18) affordable single family homes, and eighteen (18) townhouse units. Page 1 of 3 Southold Villas, Inc. Negative Declaration Reasons Supporting This Determination: This determination is issued in full consideration of the criteria for determination of significance contained in 6 NYCRR Part 617.11. In addition, to the Long Environmental Assessment Form Parts I, II and III, which was prepared in conjunction with this project review, a Draft Environmental Impact Statement was completed in compliance with an extensive scoping and review process. A Draft EIS was accepted by the Town Board of the Town of Southold, and was circulated for public and interagency comment in accordance with 6 NYCRR Part 617.8 (d). A public hearing on the Draft EIS was conducted by the Town Board on February 6, 1990. There were no substantive comments received or heard by the Town Board as a result of the comment period or hearing. In addition, the Town Board has fully considered the Draft EIS and documentation pertaining to the environmental review process for this project, and hereby finds that based upon this documentation, the project will not result in significant adverse environmental impact. Some beneficial impacts will be derived as a result of project implementation. This Negative Declaration is therefore issued in accordance w~th 6 NYCRR Part 617.8 (e)(1), which states as follows: "No final EIS need be prepared if: on the basis of the draft EIS, and comments made thereon, the lead agency has determined that the action will not hava a significant effect on the environment. A negative declaration must then be prepared and filed in accordance with this Part." The following specific reasons are offered in support of this determination: 1) The change of zoning will not adversely effect groundwater quality as compared to the present use and water quality levels. 2) The change of zone will not adversely effect areas with significant constraints regarding soils or topography. 3) There were no significant wildlife species or habitats identified in connection with the project site. The majority of the site contains fruit orchard vegetation. 4) The proposed use is considered to be compatible with surrounding zoning as it involves single and attached residential housing. Site design will be considered at the time of site plan review by the Planning Board, at which time open areas, buffering and re-vegetation may be finalized in accordance with mitigation proposed in the Draft EIS. 5) The project offers much needed alternate housing to residents of the Town of Southold, by providing several housing types, including construction of eighteen (18) affordable units. The project will increase tax revenue, and will not create an undo burdon on transportation or communtity service resources.

Title of Action: Southold Villas, Ackerly Pond Lane, Southold, Change of Zone Petition, Suffolk County Tax Map #1000-070-01-006. SEQRA Status: Unlisted Action. Location: The project is located on the west side of NYS Route 25, approximately 1,500 feet north of Ackeriy Pond Lane, in the Hamlet and Town of Southold, New York. Project Description: The project involves the proposed rezoning da an 18.021 acre parcel of land from the current "A-C" zoning district (agricultural-conservation, 80,000 square foot lots), to the "AH D" district (affordable homes district), for the purpose of constructing eighteen (18) affordable single family homes, and eighteen (18) townhouse units. Reasons Supportin[~ This Determination: This determination is issued in full consideration of the criteria for determination of significance contained in 6NYCRR Part 617.11. In addition to the Long Environmental Assessment Form Parts I, 11 and III, which was prepared in conjunction with this project review, a Draft Environmental Impact Statement was completed in compliance with an extensive scoping and review process. A Draft ElS was accepted by the Town Board of the Town of Southold, and was circulated for public and interagency comment in accordance with 6NYCRR Part 617.8(d). A Public hearing on the Draft ElS was conducted by the Town Board on February 6, 1990. There were no substantive comments received or heard by the Town Board as a result of the comment period or hearing. In addition, the Town Board has fully considered the Draft ElS and documentation pertaining to the environmental review process for this project, and hereby finds that based upon this documentation, the project will not result in significant aclverse environmental impact. Some beneficial impacts will be derived as a result of project implementation. This Negative Declaration is therefore issued in accordance with 6NYCRR Part 617.8(e)(1) which states as follows: "No final ElS need be prepared if: on the basis of the draft ElS, and comments made thereon, the lead agency has determined that the action will not have a significant effect on the environment. A negative declaration must then be prepared and filed in accordance with this Part." The following specific reasons are offered in support of this determination: 1. The change of zone will not adversely effect groundwater quality as compared to the present use and water quality levels. 2. The change of zone will not adversely effect areas with significant constraints regarding soils or topography. Pa~~- ~ - Negative Declaration - S hold Villas, Inc. 3. There were no significant wildlife species or habitats identified in connection with the project site. The majority of the site contains fruit orchard vegetation. 4. The proposed use is considered to be compatible with surround zoning as it involves single and attached residential housing. Site design will be considered at the time of site plan review by the Planning Board, at which time open areas, buffering and re-vegetation may be finalized in accordance with mitigation proposed in the Draft ElS. 5. The project offers much needed alternate housing to residents of the Town of Southold, by providing several housing types, including construction of eighteen (18) affordable units. The project will increase tax revenue, and will not create an undue burden on transportation or community service resources. ~.~_= Judith T.

In this letter you requested that the Planning Board keep you apprised of any and all proceedings related to the Southold Villas project. While the Board understands your concerns, and that of your client, it finds it cannot accept responsibility for notifying you personally of any and all proceedings relating to this project. It is not possible for us to honor such requests given the volume of the daily workload. When public hearings for preliminary and final approval are scheduled, they will be advertised in the local papers in advance of Planning Board meetings. In the meantime, please feel free to review the file on regular basis and to call staff to inquire as to the status of the application.

My client's parcel consists of approximately 27 acres. Again, my client does not oppose the change of zone application by Southold Villas. Our position is that if the AHD zoning is granted to Southold Villas, my client will seek to change the designation of its parcel to AHD. I have enclosed a letter sent by my client to Peconic Associates, Inc. dated July 20, 1988, which clearly outlines its position and the basis thereof, i hereby request that all town boards, including the Southold Town Planning Boar~,/~eep me apprised of a~iy and all proceedings related to the~~lla project. /tru~ ly~s//[ ~ JKM/lmt cc: Southold Town Planning Board Flower Hill Building Corporation July 20, 1988 Peconic Associates, One Bootley Alley P. O. Box 672 Greenport, HY I19~4 ATT: Merlon E. Wiggin Dear Sir: This is in response to your letter dated June 24, 1988. In light of your request for a change of zone for the Southold Villas parcel, we have had to reevaluate our plans for the adjacent piece which glower Hill Building Corporation holds. Based on a review of your application and taking in[o account the nature of our property and the development trends in the Town of Southold, we have decided ~o file fo£ a similar change of zone (ie, from agricultural to AHD) should the Town approve the Southold Villas plan. We believe a change of zone for our parcel is a benefit Lo the Town for the following reasons: (l) than the for .%ow Flower Hill Building's parcel is significantly larger Southold Villas project, thus allowing more opportunities income.housing and effective land use (greenbelt, etc.). (2) The Southold Villas parcel shares a long and physically indistinguishable boundary with the Flower Hill Building piece. Any project on the Flower Hill property, provided it is of a similar nature, could be easily integrated with the $outhold villas property~ providing the Town with an unbroken zone district. (3) We believe the Flower Hill Building parcel is ideally suited for development under AHD rules. The terrain i$ rolling, affording ample opportunities to ~ake advantage of the parcel and minimize any appearance of excess density. (4) The Flower H~ll Building parcel has frontage on both the Main Road (SR25) and on Ackerly Pond Lane. Any developmeng would be directed in a manner that would minimize congestion from increased travel through effective planning and use of multiple access routes. Peconic Associates, Inc. -2- July 20, 198~ ATT: Merlon E. Wiggin (5) The inclusion of the Flower Hill Building parcel in an AHD district would provide the Town with a unifi~, clear and distinct affordable housing dis[cict of a convenient size and shape, and it would also ensure thai enough land would remain available for future residents of the Town who would otherwise be condem~led to live ouLside of Southold.

New York 11971 PLANNING BOARD OFFICE TO¥(N OF SOUTHOLD MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: RE: Scott Louis Harris, Supervisor Members of the Town Board Bennett Orlowski, Jr., Chairman Valerie Scopaz, Town Planner/~ Draft Environmental Impact Statement for Southo~d Villas - Petition for Change of Affordable Housing District. DATE: February 7, 1990 FEB 8 Zone to The document appears to be complete in its discussion of the potential environmental impacts of changing the zone of the property; and of the proposed mitigation measures to minimize these environmental impacts. The following observations are for the Board's benefit in evaluating the environmental impact of this proposed change of zone petition. 1. If this project is approved, the impacts of impervious surface area (road pavement) can be further mitigated during the subdivision review stage if the Planning Board and the Highway Superintendent approve the reduction of the road down to 24 feet in width. 2. The impact statement discusses the potential environmental impacts of developing at the theoretical yield of this property, which is 36 units on 18 acres. In actuality, the yield will be less than 36 units because land required for roads, drainage and park/playgrounds must be deleted from the yield map. If the Town Board chooses to change the zone on this property, the yield will be determined by the Planning Board prior prior to preliminary approval. Accordingly the impacts described in this Draft Enviror~ental Impact Statement will likely be somewhat lessened due to a projected reduction in the numbers of units from 36 to a nu/uber supported by a standard subdivision yieid map. If the Board wishes further clarification of these issues, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

I have proof of publication at the Suffolk Times, proof of publication from the Traveler-Watchman, and proof of publication on the Town Bulletin Board. There are no further commucations. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: At this time, we'd like to have any audience participation for the public hearing, that was just read. Would anyone from the audience like to come forth and make any comments regarding such? State your name for the record, please. MERLONWIGGIN: Thank you, I'm MerlonWiggin, of Peconic Associates. As you know, the road to affordable housing is long and arduous, and this is one of the projects, that the owner and applicant has worked very long at to try and find, and work out some affordable housing within the hamlet of Southold. Granted it only provides 16 affordable housing, is half of the total acreage. The rest are 16 townhouses, which are set up to help pay for the lower price of the affordable housing lots. The environmental impact statement has possibly looked at all environmental impacts, and has concluded that there are no major impacts, that are not so mitigated, and I think this is an answer to the Town of Southold's problem, eighteen affordable housing lots. Pg 2 - PH Southold Villas SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you. Is there anyone else? KEVIN McLAUGHLIN: Kevin McLaughlin. I represent the owner of the parcel immediately adjacent to the south of the Southold Villa parcel, owned by the Flower Hill Building Corp. As I've previously advised both this Board,and the Planning Board, and the applicant, we're not at all opposed to the application of Southold Villa~s, however I just want to be on record once again, as saying that in the event that affordable housing district change of zone is granted, it is my clients intention to file, also, for a change of zone to affordable housing district on their parcel, which is approximately twenty-seven acres, and immediately adjacent to the south of this parcel. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Anybody else? Yes? State your name, please. RONNIE WACKER: Ronnie Wacker. President of the North Fork Environmental Council. We have some comments on the Southold Villas' affordable housing, not neccessarily pro or con, but just something we think might be helpful. It may be a more attractive project. Concerning the issue of open space versus the problem of additional population, and it would be presumed that the Town has decided this is a trade off, necessary for continued social and economic figure. We certainly need more inexpensive housing for young people. There's no denying that. However, we do have a few suggestions. We believe that these will make for more environmentally balanced area, with homesites that will prove more attractive, who live in them, and their neighbors. We recommend, since the individual lots are slightly over a quarter of an acre, some a bit larger than others, might it not be worth while to slice off the excess over the quarter acre, and I have a drawing here, that shows about how much each of the lots is above the required quarter acre. Might it not be worth while to slice off this excess and add that to the present buffer zone between the new houses and those in neighboring properties. That offset is supposed to be 25 feet wide, which is okay, but without too much trouble quite a bit could be increased to 50 feet, and then in the southwest area, a buffer of 25 feet would be added. This is going to give a greater sense of privacy to the people within the area, and a greater sense of privacy to those who are outside looking at this new complex, and it would save a good number of ceders, and part of the orchard, that's there. We would like to suggest that there are hundreds of very nice bayberry bushes, sizable ones, that could be saved by transplanting. Where the future road has been recommended, we suggest you not put it in. It's a Iow land area, and a natural drainage area, apparently supporting a considerable population of wildlife judging by the tracks seen in the soil. Where the road now ends, we suggest that the applicant make a culdesac wide enough for cars to turn around easily, and also, we'd like to suggest that it might be better to increase the size of the present culdesac to ninety feet, which would allow easier passage of the fire trucks. Then to mitigate the harmful effects of lawn fertilizers on the ground- water, we recommend a 15% limitation of fertilizers. Now we're not engineers, and these suggestions are not compiled from scientific studies, it simply the offering of friendly neighbors, who would like to see the area developed attractively as possible. Thank you, and here is if you'd like to see it, the plans that we drew up showing the suggestions, I made. TOWN CLERK TERRY: The Town Board doesn't rule on this division. It's the Planning Board. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: It's the Planning Board's progative. COUNCILMAN PENNY: Give it to Merlon. Pg 3 - PH Southold Villas SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Is there any other comments? JOHN COSTELLO: My name is John Costello. If this Board feels that there's still a need for affordable housing in Southold Town, I beg of this Board to do all they can to expedite this as quickly as possible, so these and some of the kids that are gone, some of the people that are leaving Southold for the lack of the housing, this Board, I hope, still feels as I do, that there is a need through- out the Town, and I hope that it does everything in it's power, and I, also, welcome Council McLaughlin's comment, if in the future this Town Board feels that there's more need, I think that's a beautiful opportunity for somebody to have that standing offer. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Is there anyone else in the audience, that would like to make a statement, at this time? (No response.) We'll close this public hearing. Judith T.

Harris & Southold Town Board Southold Town Hall 53095 Main Road Southold, New York 11971 Re: Z/6/90 Public Hearing Local Law Re: Landfill Fees Dear Supervisor & Town Board Members: As you are aware, the Greenport-Southold Chamber of Gcrrrnerce has been a proponent of the concept of economic impact statements. As such, we have suknuitted proposed legislation to the Code Corrmittee (rrodeled after County and State legislation) requiring that the economic impact of actions taken by the Town be fully evaluated and disclosed before that action is taken. Understanding that this legislation has not been enacted yet, the Board of Directors would, nevertheless, request answers to the following questions with regard to the proposed doubling of the landfill fees frem $20.00 to $40.00 per ton. What is the rationale/purpose of doubling the fees? How rr~ch revenue is anticipated to be collected? How will this revenue be used? General Fund? Dedicated? What impact will this fee have on other taxes? Schools? Property? Special Districts? What group or groups will be directly affected by this fee? What group or groups will be indirectly affected? e.g. higher prices? What amount of business will be lost due to doubling the fee? ~at is the cost of correcting non-compliance? e.g. Result of illegal dumping? What other sources of revenue are available in lieu of doubling fees? Additionally, the Board of Directors would like the following comments noted: In November of 1988 the Chamber of corrrnerce opposed this fee, ~nen it BOX 66 GREENPORT. NEW YORK 11944 Greenpor~,-~outholdChm ~r of Ccrrrnerce l'- -2- ~ruary 6, 1990 was first introduced at the current price. One of the primary reasons for its' opposition was the belief that in general, Town operations should not be financed by "user fees" in lieu of taxes. It is unfair for one segrr~nt of the population to alone bear the cost of services that benefit the entire town. The Chamber of Comnerce accepts the concept of "user les" but only when those feees are dedicated to providing the services for which the fee is paid angl not made part of the general fund. Consideration should be given to a six n~nth waiting period before this should become effective, so as tonot penalize those who have signed contracts or outstanding bids with charges fixed at the current rate.

From simulated nitrogen data the overall recharge concentrations on the developed area will average 8.0 mg/L in total leachers to ground water. Sources include lawn fertilization, sewage, and others with reduced concentrations possible with control of lawn Yertilization rates. The expected immediate resultant nitrogen concentrations would be from the mix of the leachers from the proposed development B.O mg/L and that already in ex/stance in the ground water from previous ag~iaoltural Fertilization lO.Z mg/L. The resultant can be calculated as follow~: Nitrate Concentration From Development Existing N~trate ISoncentrat~on 2 B.O + 10.2 = 19.1 or a 1.1 mg/L decreaee as a result oF development. A lower value would be expected as a result of the proposed fertilization monitoring program recommending an application rate of one (1) pound oF fertilizer Per l,O00 Square Feet, and also from a gradual decrease in e~tsting nitrate levels over time as the area ia no longer farmed. It ~s reasonable, therefore, to expect the end resultant, nitrate concentration to approach the 6_O mg/L level, or Z mq/L less Lhan the present. Hughes,. Henry B. F.

The original submitta! of this Impact Statement was made on June 15, 1989 and was returned on July 24, 1989 as being incomplete, primarily because of information on public water supply and the requirement of a cultural resource assessment report by archaeologists. Unfortunately, in the interest of obtaining affordable housing for residents of Southold Town, both the obtaining of additional water supply information, and particularly the cultural resource assessment by The Institute of Long Island Regional Archaeology took a considerable amount of time. Both of these areas have been very thoroughly addressed along with other items contained in the review and are included in the attached revision. For clarity, the entire text of the Impact Statement been reproduced and punched for insertion into the previously supplied three-ring binders, along with new Appendices No. and No. 7.

SUMMARY Revised October 10. ]989 Revised November 21, ]989 This Draft Environmenta] proposed rezoning by the existing zoning to "AHD" Impact Statement examinee the Southold Town Board from the (Affordable Housing District) of some 18.021 Acres situated on the West side of Route 29. approximately ]900 Feet North of Ackerly Pond Lane. and the proposed allocation of eighteen (lB> Affordable Housing lots on ~.0] Acres and the construction of eighteen Townhouse units on 9.0] Acres. This Draft £nvironmenta] Impact Statement is in accordance with the provisions of Article B of the Environmenta] Conservation Law; Part 6]7 of Title 6 of the New York State Codes and Regulations~ and Chapter 44 of the Southold Town Code. The Southold Town Planning Board, who is acting as Lead Agency. determined on February 2. ]~788. that the actions proposed are Unlisted and a significant effect on the environment. ].> is like]y to have (See Appendix No. The D.E.I.S. reviews the natural ~nd built environment of the p&rceI proposed for these proiecte, and concludes that the parcel is physically capable, properly ]ocated, and with the potentia! for a comp]ement of municipal services -- electrical, schools, fire and police protection, etc. -- to undergo resident]si development of the type and density forecast without significant impact or detriment to natural or man-made systems, or the surrounding development and ]and It is planned for the project to utilize Oreenport'e municipa] water via existing mains that are in close proximity to the project site. No single item received more concern or was addressed in such detail as how best to supply this project with potable water. Initially it was proposed to use a new on-site well that would be turned over to the Vii]age of Greenport in return for preferred hook-up treatment. The proposed well was test pumped three times over the last few years and analysis indicated a nitrate ]eve] of approximately ]0 p.p.m. Even though marginally meeting New York State Quality Standards, it was determined by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services as to be too high for consideration as a municipal water supply. Therefore, the only logical plan was to continue the request for hook-up to the Vii]age of Greenport's municipal water eystem, previously requested under the earlier proposed project fo~ this site (Meadow Farms). The ability to complete definite plans for this course of action was delayed because of the Vii]age of Greenport being under mandate from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services to add an additional i m.g.d, wate~ supply capability during the years ]988 and 3989. The improvements under this original mandate have been accomplished and Suffolk County Department of Health Services has granted permission for the Village to hook up in excess of two hundred (ZOO) housing units. Although final decisions have not been made as to which project wi]] receive these two hundred plus units, this progress by the Viliag~ ~f G~eenport plus the present plans underway to increase the pumping capacity and develop additional wells that wi}l add an addi%iona] ] m.g.d, ove~ that required by the mandate. have progressed to the point it is a logical conclusion that this water supply will be available for this project in all probability in time to meet the proposed progress schedule. The utilization of water from the Village of Greenport's municipal water supply is also the direction that is encouraged by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services as the most logical one in light of the proposed density and the water quality problems with the on-site well. Additions] detail regarding water supply are discussed in appropriate sections of this review and Appendix 2.

III Description of Proposed Action III. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED ACTION Revised October 10, 1969 - Revised November 2], ]989 This proposed project involves the rezoning from the existing zoning to "AHD" (Affordable Housing District) of approximately I6.02] Acres, situtated on the West side of Route 2~. approximately ],~00 feet North of the nearest street, and the providing of eighteen Affordable Housing Jots and the construction of eighteen (]8) Townhouse units. (See Preliminary Development Concept Plan Appendix No. ~_) The legal effect of the rezoning wiJJ result in a Zoning Map ammendment, and will permit the development of this parce! in accordance with the 'AHD" (Affordable Housing District) "use" and "area and bulk" regulations stated in Sections ]O0-ZO and ]00-~ of the Southold Town Zoning Code. On February Z, ]gBB the Southoid Town Board determined, ~n its role as lead agency, that the proposed rezoning and development is an Unlisted action that is "likely to have a significant effect on the environment". Accordingly, pursuant to the provisions of Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law, Part 6]7 of Title 6 NYCRR, the Southold Town Board advised the petitioner that the preparation and filing of a Draft Environmental Impact Statement would be necessary prior to the Town Board's final consideration of the petition for rezoning and subsequent development. ~ee Appendix No. KEY MAP SCALE' I'~ I A. PRO3ECT PURPOSE~ NEED AND BENEFITS THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS iN OUR COMMUNITY One of the crucial SouthoJd today is The problem is so problems facing the Town of the )ack of affordable housing. severe that, within the last three years, the Town has studied the problem and enacted an "AFFORDABLE HOUSING DISTRICT" in the Town's zoning ordinance. The average building lot is Southo]d today now costs $80,000.00 and a home $)90,000.00. These costs have driven the working class from our community. As a result, Southo]d is becoming a second bedroom community. To date, the only successes in the area of affordable housing have been in the form of subsidized housing where government has donated free ]and. Unfortunately, these efforts have not met the needs and expectations of the comunity in providing the number of housing units necessary. The estimated number of affordable housing units needed for Southoid Town is 3)~ over a ten year period. (See Appendix No. ~.) The proposed project is not subsidized by any governmenta] agency. It is created by provate capital to brind housing for the public good. 8 Upon completion, Southold Town will have at least 18 single family affordable homes which wiJJ have been created without any cost to the Town or its taxpayers. In fact, the popoeed project will add to the Town's tax base. and it will bring new life and vitality to the community. This proiect proposes the dividing of the total project site into two (2) parts - one for town houses and one for affordab]e housing lots. By using this methodology and planning concept, the town houses can be used to underwrite a portion of the site development costs in the affordable housing parcel. The affordab]e lots will be sold as such, with the purchasers of these arranging for their own construction of the individual homes, which would be in accordance with the Southold Town Building Code. This methodology also permits the use oF "sweat equity" by the purchaser of the lot and the builder of the affordable home. The proposed project will lessen a major problem in the Town of Southold with a minimal environmental impact as descriDed herein. The project is designed to be a showcase affordable housing and a credit to the community. It wi]] be the beginning of the solution - a solution that will benefit Southo]d Town and it's people for years to come. The proiect location next to the hamlet of Southold is consistent with the goals of the proposed Master Plan to have hamlet desity housing in close proximity to existing hamlets. B. LOCATION OF PROPOSED PROJECT As previously stated, the ]8.0Z] Acre parcel proposed for rezoning and development is located on the Northerly side of State Highway, New York Route Z~, approximately ),~00 feet East of Ackerl¥ Pond Lane (Tax Map # i000-070-0]-06>. The Affordable Housing Zone lots only are on the Southern portion of the property, and the Town House portion occupies the Northern part of the property. The total site is within the Town of Southold, County of Suffo]k, State of New York, and is more part;cu]arly described as follows: "BEGINNING at a point on the westerly side of Main Road (N.Y.S.

The access to the site is as shown on the previously described Preliminary Development Concept Plan (Appendix No. )) and includes street access from Route Z~ and furture street access from Acker]y Pond Lane through property owners i n~nedietely to the West. The subject p~rcel was acquired by SOUTHOLD VILLAS. INC. from NEADOW FARMS ASSOCIATES by Deed dated the )0th day of September, ninteen hundred and eighty-six, and recorded in the Office of the Suffolk County Clerk, on October 16, 1956, in LIBER 998Z and Page 497. C. DESIGN AND LAYOUT The site will be sub-divided into 784,9~Z square feet, or approximately 9.0) Acres. comprising of eighteen (]8) individual house lots, each comprising of approximately ]3,92S square feet; and 784.~Z square feet, or approximately 9.0] Acres for the Town House units. Streete are proposed to be twenty-eight (28) feet wide. constructed in accordance with the Town of Southold Highway Specifications. and to include continuous recharge swales on either side as well leaching pools in each of the low sections of the street, both of which are designed to take full advantage of the recharge capability of the well drained soil on this particular site. Streets and driveways will constitute approximately ]20.00 Square Feet of paved Surfaces. In the Affordab]e Housing Section ],6 Acres has been designated as natural and buffer areas and are to be covenanted as such. In these areas the natural vegatation wi]] be enhanced where needed with similar shrubs and trees. Esch affordable lot will contain approximately 6,000 Square Feet of landscaped area. The remainder, or not less than 4,000 Square Feet per lot, would be left in its natural state as a deed restriction. For the Town House section of the property two plus acres are to be left in its natural state_ Approximately five acres, primarily on the street side of the structures, are to be landscaped. Both the Affordable Housing lots and the Town House units will be serviced by Greenport Village water, Long Island Lighting Company, New York Telephone, and Dimension Cable (TV). To preserve and enhance the asthetic apprearance of both of the sites, all utility services are to be placed underground. Sanitary waste treatment and disposal wiJ! be by septic tanks and leaching pools installed in accordance with Suffolk County Department of Health Service requirements. As the entire site has a good sub-drainage, standard designs can be utilized. D- CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION Construction of the eighteen (lB) Affordable Housing lots will be at the discretion of the individual purchaser, but because of the demand for same. it is expected that the construction period ~ill be completed within two (Z) years after commencement. It is anticipated that the construction of the eighteen (18> Town House units (e buildings> will be commenced at approximately the same time as the building of the Affordable Housing lots. It is further anticipated that the construction period will be completed within approximately eighteen (18) months after commencement. The proposed schedule for the commencement of the various phases of site construction are as follows: Start of Prolect ....... Spring ]990. Staking and cutting of roads ~0 Days after Start. Installation of underground utilities and services .... 60 to Start. 90 Days after Construction of Pavements and Curbs ........... 4 to 6 Start_ Months after Landscaping .......... Spring ]99I.

ENVIRONMENTAL SETT]NG Revised October ]0, ]989 Revised November NATURAL RESOURCE The principal natural resources which contribute to the environmental setting or context of this particular site are its geology, water resources, terrestrial ecology, and agricultural resources. A. GEOLOGY I. Subsurface Not Applicable Z. & ). Surface and Topography The geology of this parcel proposed for rezoning and development is considered typical of the geology found throughout Southo]d Township. Upper Pleistocene deposits form the overall land mass of the North Fork, consisting of stratified sands and gravels with some thin beds of clay encountered. These Upper Pleistocene deposits range to approximately ZOO feet below sea level. 19B9 The soil for this site is classified as Haven Series with a small amount of Plymouth Series, (See U.S.C.S. Soils Map Figure l.) The Haven Series consists of deep, well drained, medium textured soils that form in a loamy or silty mantel over stratified course sand and gravel. The topsoil is generally ]8 approximately ten (]0) inches thick, with a sub-soil of dark brown to strong brown friable loam to a depth of about nineteen (]9) inches. The lower part, to a depth of twenty-eight (Z8) inches, is yellowish-brown, friable gravel]y loam. The substratum, to a depth of fifty-five (~) inches, is yellowish-brown to brownish-yellow loose sand and gravel. Haven soi]s have high to moderate available moisture capacity, Internal drainage is good. Permeability is moderate in the surface ]ayer and subsoil and rapid or very rapid in the substratum. Have! Loam (HaA) is mostly near]y level with elopes of 0 to Z percent. The hazard of erosion is slight on this Haven soil. This soil is used extensively for c~ops, and it is well suited to all crops commonly grown in the county. Because of the nearly level s. lope and ease of excavation, this type of soil is often used for housing developments and industrial parks. Limitations of the soils for homesites is rated as "slight". The Plymouth Series consists of deep. excessively drained, coarse-textured soils that ZO form in a mantle of loamy sand or sand over thick layers of stratified coarse sand and gravel. In a representative profile the surface layer is very dark grayish-brown loamy sand. about four (4) inches thick. The subsoil is yellowish-brown and brown, very friable and loamy sand to a depth of about twenty-seven (27) inches. The substratum, to a depth of about-fifty-eight (~8) inches, is yellowish-brown, loose gravelly coarse sand. Plymouth soils have low to very low available moisture capacity. Natural fertility is low. Internal drainage is good and permeabilJty ~s rapid. A small area of Plymouth Loamy Sand (Pla) occurs in the area of a small swale that slopes to the South towards the adjacent property. This slightly depressed surface of the site is. for the most part. not included Jn the proposed development area. but is included in open space and future drive. Plymouth Loamy Sand (Pla) slopes undulating and often occur along the sides of intermittent drainageways, and follow the course of the drainage channel, which is true in this particular instance. The hazard of erosion is 2] slight on this Plymouth soil. but tends to be droughty. This soil is fairly well suited to crops commonly grown in the County. In developed areas this soil is used mainly for housing developments, WATER RESOURCES 1. Groundwate~ Groundwater, as previously discussed, is the principal water resource of concern in an area such as Long Island that has been classified by the EPA as being fully dependent upon a sole, or single, source for its potable water supply. This designation reinforces the in-place planning criteria and monitoring activities that are utilized to ensure that the groundwater not be contaminated by either point- or non-point sources of pollution. The concern is even more critical in the Town of SouthoJd for, unlike many other areas of Long Island, potable water supply is not avai]able here from both the Glacial and Magothy aquifers. Water underlying Southold within the Hagothy formation is generally too saline for potable use. ZZ Sands and gravel of the particular soils previously discuesed ere characterized as highly permeable end yield little run-off during precipitation periods. The upper levels of these, plus the storm deposits, containing fresh water are the primary source of ground water within the Town of SouthoId. Based upon a topographical analysis of the parcel proposed for rezoning and development, it can be assumed that the water table generally lies some twenty (Z0) to forty (40) feet beneath this ]8.02] Acre tract, with an average depth of the water table approximately thirty feet. A test well installed Jn 3anuary 1986 on the Northern end of the site showed the depth of the groundwater of thirty-three (~) feet. Surface Water a. Not Applicable b. Not Applicable c. The patterns for surface drainage are well established and occur generally from Northwest to Southeast. the terminus of which is the entrance to 3ockey Creek. However. because of the high permeability of the soil (see above reference to the geology) little surface run-off occurs, except during winter months w~th frozen surface soil conditions_ (See Figure l) ' - the do Because of the eJevations present on the parcel proposed for rezoning and development, none of it Jies within the area designated as flood hazards by the Federa!

A portion of the Southeast part of the parcel contains the remains of an apple orchard which, from the condition of the tress, has not been in production for some time. In summary, the fields exhibit the primary stages of rscolonization. The proposed development will drastically alter the environment ~nd require the resident fauna to relocate to remaining similar habitat if available. Existing flora will be replaced with species typical of landscaped res]dantia] Z.

TRANSPORTAT]ON Transportation Services The principal transportation arteries servicing the North Fork of Long Island are Middle or North Road (County Road 48) and Main Road (New York State Route Z~). Route Z~, an East-~est roadway, is a two-Jane improved roadway passing through the hamlet centers of the North Fork, including Mattituck, Cutchogue and Southo]d within the Town of Southold, and the Village of Greenport. Middle. or North Road, (County Road 48), also an East-~est artery, runs along the northern section of the North Fork. County Road 48 is a four-lane roadway from Mattituck to Southo]d and a two- lane roadway from Southold to Greenport. Ackerly Pond Lane serves a North-South 27 connecto~ between State Route Z~ and County Route 48. At the request of the Planning Board the project road layout is such that, when future development occurs to the West. then there will be a street connection from the proiect site to Ackerly Pond Lane. As initially there will only be one ()) means of ingress and egress from the proiect site, and with the proposed thirty-six (~6) dwelling units, concern was expressed about the impact upon the heavily travelled Route Z~, especially during the summer months. Accordingly, there has been a comprehensive traffic study accomplished on this, and is contained as Appendix No. Public T~anspo~tation Other modes of transportation to the North Fork include ferry, train, bus and service. Direct access to the South Fork of Long Island by way of Shelter Island is available on a regular basis from Greenport via the North Ferry Company, Inc. and the South Ferry. ]n addition, the Cross Sound Ferry, located some nine (9) m~les East of Greenpor%, provides a direct route to New England for automobiles, trucks and walk-on passengers. Passenger rail service to Greenport is limited to two (2) trains eastbound and two (2) trains westbound per day, with more frequent bus- train service. Sunrise Coach Lines. Inc. provides direct bus service from Greenport to New York City - three (~) round-trips per day. Kennedy International Airport is located eighty-six (06) miles West of Southold. while Long Island's MacArthur Airport and Suffolk County's Airport at Westhampton are, respectively, forty-four (44) and twenty-six (Z6> miles distant. The proposed parcel for rezoning and redevelopment has one hundred (100) feet of frontage on Route Z~. ). Pedestrian Envl~onmen~ Presently an existing sidewalk crosses the existing and proposed entrance to the project site. Observations of pedestrian traffic indicate that the sidewalk ]s only lightly used, probably primari]y because of the school being on the opposite side of the street, resulting in more pedestrian traffic on the East side of the road than on the West side, where the project is located. 4. Other Not Applicable )0 LAND USE AND ZONING ]. Existing Land Ume And Zoning The ]B.0Z] Acre parcel proposed For development is a tract of vacant land previously farmed, but not in the last seven years based on information available. The tract has no improvements and has been overgrown in recent years since the cessation of agricultural use. The borders on its East by lend owned by Margueite Young: Douglas Piex and William Crawford; Dane and Thomas Franks~ Thomas Franke; and Marion King (Residential): on its South by Route Z3 and land owned by Flower Hill Building Corporation (leased to Wickham Farms - Drcharde.

Hemblo (vacant - Residential office)= and on its North by propeTty owned by Russell and 3Den Mann (vacant. residential, sub-divided lend). ]n close proximity to the East of the proposed development are Griswold Street, Glover Street, Terry Court, and Tuckers Lane. which are developed by single family dstatched homes on individual lots, and located near subject parcel. The average density in this development is two (2) to three (~>- units per acre. In close proximity to the South is residential deve]opmen% along Route 27. These older house units are located on lots that vary in eize from 1],600 square feet to ~6,000 square feet. As mentioned above, the Flower Hill property is leased to Wickham Farms who maintains orchard activities. Because of concern of application of pesticides and farm equipment noise, the orchard activity was reviewed with Tom Wickham, Wickham Farms Manager. Spraying is done approximately once every two weeks, or slightly more often during rainy periods. He reported that they only spray during periods of no wind. and therefore there is no "drifting" of reported that toxicity that no protective gear is required during spray applications. spray materials. He also the material is of such ]ow The subject parcel is currently zoned A-C (Agrucultural Conservation). Under this zoning classification a one-family taxed dwelling is permitted on a lot, with a minimum land area of B0,000 square feet. or ].B4 Acres, which classification is generally referred to as two (Z) Acre zoning. Under the proposed Master Plan. certain parcels located immediately adjacent to the ham]ets would be considered for rezoning to Ham]et Density and/or AHD Affordable Housing. The recently established Affordable Housing District Js the result of the amendment of Chapter ]00 (Zoning> of the Code of the Town of Southold to provide a new Article VA for Affordable Housing Districts.

An annual decline in pupil enrollment has been recorded in each of the past ten (]0) school years, except for years ]986-B7 and ]gB7-B8, with the enrollment figures reported by the enrollment figures reported by the District for ]988 contained in Appendix No. 6. The School District has, thus, experienced an enrollment decline of about nineteenb percent ()9~) during the past decade. The 1~B7-1~88 taxable assessed valuation within Southold Unior Free District for school purposes was $24,659,~86.00. The total cost per pupil, including buid] ing, maintenance,. and administrative costs, much of which is fixed and beyond direct pupil costs, was $6.64].00 during ]~B7-lgB8. 2 = Police Protection. Police protection to the proposed development is the responsib~it¥ of the Southold Town Police, located on Route Z~ in Peconic. State Police protection is available from the Riverhead Barracks on Route 24. Ability to provide protection to the proposed development is contained in a letter from the Chief of Police as Appendix No. 6. Fi~e Protection. The proposed development is located within the Southo]d Fire Department District, which maintains a firs station located on Route Z~, SouthoJd. The station is conveniently located to the proposed development site with a full range of equipment and rescue squard personnel are avai]able. (See Appendix No. Health Cars Facilitiss.

A Long Island Lighting Company (LILCO) gas main is also along State Road Z~. adjacent to the South side of subject property, but LILC0 has a continual policy of not permitting any new hook-ups because of the limited size o~ the main and pressures available. This policy is not expected to change in the near future. See Appendix No. 6 indicating availability and impact of electrical service supplied by Long Island Lighting Company. Water Supply. The Village of Greenport maintains a fifteen (1~> square mile franchise area ~hich extends from the East side of ShipyarM Lane in East Marion to Peconic Lane in Peconic, including the Bayview peninsula in Southold. ~0 The total Village water plant capacity is calculated at ).0 mgd per day. In addition, the Village of Gresnport is under mandate from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services to add an addition I mgd water supply capability during the year ]gBB-IgBg. In addition, improvements to the system accomplished to date have resulted in a determination by Suffo]k County Department of Health Services that in excess of two hundred (Z00) housing units can be connected. Requests by the project Owners initiated to allow the project 1990. are being to start in The Village of Greenport has plans and work underway to increase the pumping including the development of additional wells that will increase the system's capability an additional ] mgd over that required by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services for a total of Z mgd. and far in excess of the proposed development's needs, so as not only to supply the development with it's required water supply, but also to increase the reserve for the Village of Greenport's potable water system. See Appendix No. Z for letter from the Village of Greenport, and quoted as follows: 39 " .... the Village Board of Trustees has committed to upgrade and improve the water system. The engineering analysis has been completed for the Village to acquire a $~ million bond issue to accomplimh the upgrade. The S£QRA process has been comp]eted and applications to the DEC have been submitted to construct new wells for an additional 2 million gallons of water a day. "The Village is completing the engineering required to activate the new wells which will supply sufficient water for your development. "At a point during this process when the Village can be assured that the new wells will be on line and sufficient water available to meet your needs prior to construction of the development in question, we will negotiate a contract to supply water as requested." 4O There ie also a degree of quality problems (nitrates and chlorides) at certain wells. Additional water treatment, plus the establishment of new wells is in process to improve both the quality and quantity of the water system so as to continually meet New York State Water Quality Standards. and provide the additional quantity required for the franchise area. The expected solution is that contained in Option # 4 - "Hook Up To The Village of Greenport's Municipal System - The pro)ect site is totally within the Village of Greenport's water franchise area and, from both a logical and legal point of view, the only practical decision would be for this site to be connected to the existing village municipal water mains. This direction is also the one recommended by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services. It is realized, however, that the Village of Greenport is under various mandates to increase and improve their water eupplies, and that the comp)etlon of these efforts could possibly delay actual construction. "Discussions with Village officials indicate that they are actively purpsuing increased production capability as wel! as improvement in water quality, including the initiation of bonds for required funding. Therefore, it is considered that the only logical course of action is to stay on the Village's list of those requesting connection, and have the project ready for hook-up as soon as water service is available." Or, a variation of that by a combined contribution by D.B.M. Affordable Housing Proiect and Southold Villas as per the following Data for Well Development on the following page.

The recommended alternative is Lave! III, which is a municipal type distribution system. Implementation of the Level III is recommended. with the report stating: " .... adequate supply exists in Zones 3 and 4 to meet Greenport's needs." The Village of Greenport Water Department regulatlone were recently amended to provide preferential considerations for water hook-up outside of the Incorporated Village to major sub-divisions which are categorized as "Self Sustained". and which are defined as "any sub- division, development, or facility which provides water equal to or in excess o~ projected demand". (See Appendix No. 2.) If D.B.M. Affordable Housing Project and Southold Villas participate in a well development as outlined on page 38, then the p~oject would be considered as "Self Sustained". Based on discussions with Suffolk County Oepartment of Health Services the Owner has decided that the best approach fo~ providing water to the proposed development is to hook up site mains to the Village of Greenport's system es soon ~s c~pacity becomes ~v~ilable from their present expension efforts now under way.

The most populous hamlet in the Town is Southold, Census Tract 170Z.01 which grew Z7.Z~ since 1970 to 4.770 persons. There are 1.9~7 households with only Z.4 persons per household. The median family income is $19.320. This is the Town's lo.est, but can be partially offset by the household size. Southold has Z.871 housing units. Sixty-eight percent (1,~)7 units) of these are year-round occupied units. Twenty-seven percent (78] units are considered seasonal dwellings or second homes.

CULTURAL RESOURCES Visual Resources The this particular project site include areas to the West that are presently the open still undeveloped. Of probably more importance is the v~llage-like vista with the tree lined streets, church steep]es, and so forth, that are part of the panoramic view to the Northeast. The site layout, with its land generally sloping in this direction, is such as to take advantage of this visual resource. Historic &nd Archaeolo~ic&! Resources - A Stage ]-A Cultural Resource Assessment was done for the project site by The Long [sland Regional Archaeology, of Anthropology. State University at Stony Brook under the supervision of Linde E. BErber, M.A., Principal [nvestigator. The complete assessment is included as Appendix No. 7. Institute for Department of New York The report of the Field Inspection is as follows: "A field inspection o~ the Southold Villas proiect area was conducted on September ze. )989. The major portion of the property consists of a fallo~ field. consists primarily of high with some bayberry, cedar. northeast Vegetation grasses and weeds and one birch. the remains of an orchard in the central section of the project area. which extends nearly south in a thinner band to the south boundary. Fruit trees observed in this area are mainly apple, with some pear and crabapple trees. These trees are not attended to at present and in general appear to be less than 60 years old. There is a working orchard on the adjoining property to the south. ~0 "The vegetation immediately west of Main Street consists of grass, weeds which include chicory and clover, some wild rose, locust saplings, and a few hickory saplings. No topographical indicators structures were noted in vegetation has been mown just west of this area. of historic this area. The down to create paths A small pile of lumber containing wire nails was noted adjacent to one of these tracks near the south boundary. "There is a gentle rise in elevation in general from east to west with a maximum height of nearly forty feet at the northwest corner of the property according to the July ]), ]gBB survey of Peconic surveyors and engineers. P.C. There is a shallow linear depression extending north into the east central area. "Due to vegetation there is nearly zero ground surface visibility through the proiect area. No cultural malaria] was observed within a few small areas cleared of vegetation. A trowel probe in the central section revealed a plow zone of brown silty loam. "There is one structure within the project area at present, a two door garage which was constructed around )940. A gravelly drive extends to it from Main Street in the east neck of the project area." The assessment Conclusions and Recommendations "THe existence of several documented prehistoric sites in the vicinity of the project area indicates that there is a possibility of prehistoric cultural remains within the project area. "The eaet neck of the project area, adiacent to Main Street, has been a location of intensive land use for nearly ~0 years. Due to the proximity of continuously inhabited houses dating to the seventeenth century, the former existence of an early nineteenth century outbuilding, and a possible animal pen within the proiect area, an early nineteenth century to early twentieth century outbuilding and/or shop within the project area, and a nearby late nineteenth century blacksmith ehop, likelihood of significant remains being located of the project area. early twentieth there is a strong historic cultural in the east neck section ~Z "The archival search suggests that the east neck of the project area contains eigni{icant historic cultural remains. In addition, there is the potential ~or prehistoric cultural remains within the entire project area due to the proximity o{ the project area to many known prehistoric sites as well as water resources. It is therefore recommended that a Stage I-B subsur{ace investigation be conducted within the project As noted in the Field Inspection, the major portions of the site consists of a fallow field and "no topographical indicators of historic structures were noted in this area." The Conclusion stated that " .... there is a strong likelihood of significant historic cultural remains being located in the east neck section of the project area". As the only proposed work in the "neck section" is the site's entrance Orive and water main connections, and as the Owner has agreed to have a member of the Institute presend during work in the "neck section" it is concluded that a Stage I-B subsurface investigation is not warranted. This conclusion has also been expressed end supported by the Town's Community Development Director and officia|s of the Planning Bo&rd. F. AFFORDABLE HOUSING There is at present a specific and identifiable need for affordable housing within the Town. Studies have projected a recommended need for ~1~ units within the next ten (]0) years. (See Appendix No. 4.) Significant Environmental Impacts V. SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Revised October 10, ]989 Revised November The aspects of the environmental setting that may be adversely impacted by the proposed actions specifically include the following: Ao GEOLOGY 1. Surface - The development of this pro]ecl which will include construction activities is for residential foundations, roads, underground utilities including sanitary systems, and such will disrupt to a considerable extent the topsoil characteristics and existing ground cover, making erosion more likely during the development period, The excavation for the units septic tanks and leaching pools in particular wilJ disrupt the existing soil stratification because of the depths of excavations. WATER RESOURCES I. GroundwBtsr - The primary expected impact to the groundwater from rezoning and development would be from the nutrients that would enter the groundwater table via individual leaching pools and from ferttJization of lawns and other grassed areas. Because the groundwater in this area is already considered contaminated from nitrates and temJk (see Appendix No. Z - Lab Water Tests). The development of the property is calculated to not add to this contamination but allow the levels to drop over that which h~ve previously occurred when it Nitrogen balance No. Z) show that was actively farmed. calculations (see Appredix the resultant nitrogen concentrations would be 7.7 mg/L as compared with %he most recent %eel levels of ]0.2 mg/L. The other possible impact to groundwater is from buried fuel ~il tanks. Proposed mitigation measures described in Section VI are such that with the adoption of them it is anticipated that potential contamination of recharge groundwater will be avoided or eliminated. Surface Water The installation of paved streets and the temporary loss of ground cover during construction will ~dversely impact the control of drainage, as well as its patterns and present channels. Specific mitigation measures will be necessary to prevent erosion and to col Ject and control run-of~ for recharge into the aquifer. C. AIR RESOURCES Not Applicable. O. TERRESTRAL AND AQUATIC ECOLOGY The rezonin9 and development of this particular site will result in a change of vegetation from the present "old field" which has been colonized by native species to those species typical of landscaped residential areas. This change can be expected to "drastically alter the environment and require the resident fauna to relocate". (See Appendix No. ~.) The designated natural areas can be expected to reduce some of thie relocation. The availability of habitats less close to the hamlet is considered readily Available. especially in the Hashamomuck to the East. There are no endangered vegetation, but a red- tailed hawk, ~ New York State threatened species. was observed circling overhead, and is expected that the proposed development will deter him from hunting at this site and that he would go elsewhere to other available habitat of which there are an adequate supply. ~7 E. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES The rszoning and development of this site will ~esult in the total loss of this acreage to agriculture. However, even though this e~ea is considered a good agricultural resource, it has not been in productive use ~or seven (7) ye~rs~ has not been placed in the Farmland Preservation Program= nor has it been zoned strictly agricultural. Therefore, it ie determined that the loss o4 this area as an agricultural resource is not the result of this rezoning and development, but of other unrelated actions. SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS HUMAN RESOURCES A. TRANSPORTATION Developments of any kind. including residential development, cannot help but. and will, generate Increased vehicle trips. It is also natural and understandable that local and adjacent residents who are used to, like. and enioy the combined low population urban density, urban and ~ural area. feel that any increase in vehicle traffic is an adverse impact, even though the traffic studies indicate that the surrounding streets, ~oads and intersect]one h~ve adequate capacity for the projected increased vehicle trips without adverse impact from the increased traffio generate~ by the project. (See Appendix No. 9.) B. LAND USE AND ZONING There will and in the zoning. vacant agricultural (2) units per acre, be a significant change in the land use The land use will go from to a residential density of two and the zoning will change from Residential Agricultural to Affordable Housing District (AHD). Once the land use change has taken place, it wil! not be practical or economic&lly possible to revert it back to agricultural use. As on two sides of the proposed project the present zoning is Residential/Office and Residential, the proposed project is considered compatible with the existing environmental setting. CO--UNITY SERVICE The only Community Service effected either proposed action Human Resources item that may be adversely or beneficially by is public water supply. See IV, C - 8 above, the Public Water Supply - The only community service that is determined to be potentially adversely impacted by the in regard to public water previously indicated, the G~eenport, which services proposed action is supply. As Village of this franchise area, has available to them an estimated ~.0 millaon gallons per day. This project will add an average of 8,800 gallons per day, with a peak of ZZ,000 gallons per day to this already taxed resource. The Village of Greenport, however, has specific proposals and p]ans that not only resolves the project's water supply, but potentially makes available water supplies many times in excess of the project ~equirements. (See Appendix No. Z.) 6O DEMOGRAPHY The estimated resultant population of the development, using a standard planning factor of Z.~ per residence, would result in a population of ninety (90). E. CULTURAL RESOURCES Visual Resources It is generally considered that a development of any kind that takes unused open space and changes it to a residential development causes a loss of visual resources, and that the proposed action will convert IB.OZI Acres of open space to ]8.OZ1 Acres of residential development. On the other hand, if a well kept neighborhood o~ reasonable residential density, with paved, t~ee lined streets, well kept lawns and shrubbery is considered an improvement to the visual resource, tYran the proposed development would not be adversely impacted. The decision of whether this is ~n adverse impact is, obviously, in the eyes of the beholder. 6l Z. Historic Ind Archsao}o~icml Rsmources - The impact of the projec% is not considered to have e significant environmental impact unless archaeological discoveries are made during the work in the "neck section". (See IV, E. Z and Appendix No. 7.) F. AFFORDABLE HOUSING The proficing of eighteen (]8) affordable housing, while minimum, as to the Town's proiect needs (~) is signifcant as one of the Town's e~riy efforts. 6Z ¥! Mitigation On Measures To Minimize Environmental Impact VI. MITIGATION MEASURES TO MINIMIZE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Revised October 10, 1989 NATURAL RESOURCES Revised November Zl, 1989 The natural items addressed and measures are to be accomplished o Geology o Water Resources o Terrestral and Aquatic Ecology o Agricultural Resources for which mitigation include; GEOLOGY All topsoil material is to be stockpiled during the construction and used fo~ the restoration and landscaping around the new housing units. In addition, every reasonable effort will be made to preserve in place the natural growth not only between housing units but in the designated open spaces. The open space designated ares will be maintained as near as possible with its present natural growth so as to prevent erosion, especially durtng the construction period. Additional plantings of shrubs and street trees will also help preserve the topsoil. Also during the construction period the contractor will be required to surface the streets as soon as grading and compacting is complete so as to preclude erosion in the designated street areas. B= WATER RESOURCES ]. Ground Water Mitigation measures to prevent ground water contamination include [he following= a. A site construction restriction that allows no in-ground oil fuel storage tanks. This action has been previously supported and publically agreed to by the Southold Town Planning Board. Historically it has been proven that the indiscriminate application of lawn furtilizers can. and will, result in the contamination of groundwater. particularly by increased nitrogen levels. It is therefore important that mitigation measures in the form of restrictions to limit the application of such lawn fertilizers in accordance with practices that will insure the use of these nutrients by plant growth and not allow them to be applied to the extent .that they wilt percolate into the groundwater recharge zone. Covenants and restrictions are being prepared that each owner and occupant of the housing units will be required to sign and comply with. 64 Since the proposed change of zone and the development will be utilizing public water supply, there is little eubetantial impact to the ground water from pumping or other methods of withdrawal expected to occur ae the result of this proposed development. The development will, however, be expected to uae potable available water reeourcee based on Ii0 gallone (ERM - North Fork Water Supply) per capita per day. Baaed on the pereons per dwelling ratio of 2.~ (Long leland Regional Planning Board) within the family type reeidential unite proposed, & year round water uae of 27~ gallons per dwelling unit per day is reaeonable, or for a total of ~6 units of 8,800 gallone per day. 2. Surface Water Historically. the collection and direct diecharge of street drainage into an aquifer hae been a potential source of ground water contamination. Therefore. to eliminate or reduce this potential contamination in the ground water recharge zones from road and etreet run-off, the storm drainage deelgn hae incorporated into it continuous sand recharge ewalee on either aide of all streets. Th~s design will provide an increased ability to filter and distribute, and as a result enhance the quality of the ground water percoJating into the recharge zone. as compared to a major storm drain collection system with point recharge. C. AIR RESOURCES Not Applicable. D. TERRESTRAL AND AQUATIC ECOLOGY The site's development of thirty-six (76) dwelling units will cause the removal of a large portion of the existing vegetation, which is considered "old field" which has made an excellent habitat for small mammals and birds. The establishment of flora end fauna typical of residential areas will in some measure mitigate the temporary loss of habitat for some of the small animals and bird life, Otherwise, the only significant mitigation measure would be the maintaining of the open space end buff areas wjth their original ground cover. which will serve as the habitats for animal and bird life end native type grasses that are already in existance. As discussed prevtously, tn all probability the red-tailed hawk observed circling the site will relocate elsewhere for source of food (small rodents). Other than the possibility of forcing the red-tailed hawk to use other sites for hunting, the development will impose no threat to any endangered species of animal, ~lant. or bird life. 67 E. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES There is no known mitigation that is considered reduce the impact of the agricultural resources. On this particular site. the land is already out of farm type production and has been since ]98Z. and as it has not been zoned strictly agricultural, or placed in the Farmland Preservation Program, nor is being presently used {or agriculture by the Owner, and therefore there is no indicated attempt returning it to agricultural be realized, however, by all that once an agricultural farmland to residential. for the agricultural use. production. ]t should planners and reviewers resource is changed from then it is forever lost HUMAN RESOURCES The human resources addressed for which are to be accomplished include= o Transportation o Land Use and Zoning o Community Services o Cultural Resources. mitigation measures A. TRANSPORTATION The proposed project will not create significant adverse impact on traffic conditions within or along the major route serving Southold, specifically State Route Z~ (See Appendix No. 8) and can readily accon~nodate the additional traffic flow generated. A project specific traffic analysis has been accomplished, the summary of which states: "Our study and analysis have concluded that the construction of the proposed development wi ]! have minimal traffic impact on Route 2} and the adjacent roadways in the immediate area of the proposed development. "The location and design of the access point on Route Z~ will provide the traffic service required with minimal disruption to traffic on Route Z~. The access driveway has been designated with separate right turn and separate left turn exit lanes so that congestion and delays will be reduced along the exit roadway. (To be reflected on final site plan.) "There are sufficient available gaps on Route Z~ to accommodate the safe ingress and egress of vehicles that will be generated by the proposed development. As a result, there is sufficient capacity on Route Z} to accommodate this additional site-generated traffic without creating a traffic operational problem." The detailed traffic study is contained in Appendix No. Even though the proposed rezone and development project will not create a significant adverse impact on traffic conditions on Route Z~ as per the enclosed traffic study (See Appendix No. it is planned to provide additional methods of ingress and egress from the site to adjacent property to connect with Ackerley Pond Lane. The Planning Board has ~ndicated during their initial review and Scoping Session that any development to the West of this proposed development will be eequired to match up with the present dead-end street so as to allow traffic connections from the site to County Road 48 via Acker]y Pond Lane. which will substantially reduce entrance and exit on New York State Route B. LAND USE AND ZONING There is very little m~tigation measures that can be taken when you are changing a land use from agricultural to residential, and the change of zoning from Agricultural/Residential to higher density residential. The most logics! and practical measure is to develop the parcel to be consistent with the residential character of the adiacsnt propsrty to the East and South, and also 7O to lay out the proposed development which will permit the installation of suitable residential infrastructure, which includes municipal water and properly developed local streets that will provide a well planned residential type environment. Included in this would be the landscaping and plantings, especis]]y street trees, and other related types of landscaping that would transform the developed site into a pleasing visual impact. ?l C. COMMUNITY SERVICES Public Water Supply As indicated in Section IV. the Village of Greenport has available to them an estimated ~.0 million gallons of water per day and are in the process of increasing this by an additional Z million gallons per day for a total of ~ million gallons per day. This project will require g,800 gallons average per day, or only approximately 0.4~ of the projected available projection of the additional water ~upply that will be available in the near future. To improve the present good quality of the on- site water and prevent contamination by nitrates, part of the mitigating action is to fertilizer application as and restrictions and have limit their lawn per deed covenants septic tanks pumped as recommended by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services. and as required by the Town of Southo]d's Wastewater District requirements (see Town Board Resolution dated February ]~, 19B~) on a periodic basis. These proposed mitigated type actions will provide further preventive type action to surrounding 7Z Other Community Service As it has been determined that the proposed rezoning and development will not provide any adverse impact to other Community Services, no mitigation action for these are required. See Appendix No. CULTURAL RESOURCES 1. Visual Resources The principal mitigation measures include the arrangment of street trees and shrub planting so that they will' enhance the visial impact of not only this development but the adjacent neighborhoods, the preservation of open space as designated on the site plan, and the inclusion of buffer areas between the neighboring properties and the single family and the town house areas. Z. Noise To avoid disturbances to the surrounding residences site construction will be limited to norrr~l daylight working hours. Included in the final plat submital will be shrubs landscaping plans that will reduce transmission from the project site. Southoid Town Code A-196.) and noise (Reference 7~ Adverse Environmental Effects That Cannot Be Avoided If Project Is Implemented ¥II. ADVERSE EN¥IRONHENTAL EFFECTS THAT CANNOT BE AVOIDED IF THE PRO3ECT IS IMPLEMENTED - Revised October 10. 1989 Revised November 2], Based on a comprehensive review of Sections IV, V, and VI, the only adverse environmental effect that will occur regardless of mitigation measures will be the loss of potential agricultural lands, the increased vehicle trips, increase in groundwater demand without site produced replacement, forced partial relocation of wildlife (small rodents in particular) and potentially reduced hunting area for the red-tailed hawk. a New York State Threatened Species. 1989 In regard to the loss of the land to agricultural production, there is no known mitigation measure that can lessen this impact. As previously staled, once this is removed from potential productions and changed to residential development that resource will no longer be available. Based on the traffic study conducted, it was determined that there will no[ be any adverse impact to area roads_ It is recognized that any increase in traffic could be considered an adverse environmental impact however, and cannt be totally mitigated. As previously discussed and stated, the layout of the development 74 provides a future street connection from the site through the adjacent property to the West. with planned future connection to Acker]y Pond Lane and County Road 4B. Because of the questionable quality of the site's groundwater, it is necessary that the water supply for this project come from other locations. This is not, however, considered a significant adverse environmental effect as studies have indicated that there is adequate quantities of water available, and the Village of Greenport ns in the process of adding to the municipal water using these other sites that contain water quality that will meet New York State Standards. The eite work in relation to this project will force a partial relocation of wildlife, particularly the small rodents. Bird life is expected, as has historically been in the past. to adapt themselves quite readily to reaidential fauna and flora, particularly after the construction work is completed. It is expected that site development will remove this &rea as a potential hunting ground for the red-tailed hswk, and cBnnot be avoided if the proiect is implemented as planned. The &dverse environmental impact of this is considered very limited as there is considerable amount of similar type areas in the immediate vicinity that the threatened species can uti] ize for an adequate food supply. 76 Alternatives rill. ALTERNATIVES - Revised October lO, 1989 Revised November ALTERNATIVE DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGIES ]. Site Layout different density than that is proposed to rezoning to AHD, then there is a limited amount of aJternative site layouts that could be accomplished. One of the principal ones that has been under consideration and discussion is the switching of the affordable lot section in the front to the town house section in the rear. Careful review of the alternate sites layouts do not indicate any significant environmental impact as to the switching of the two (Z) designated ~re~a. Either one would be acceptable and would meet the ~equirements of the proiect for affordable housing. Orientation promote individual characterizations oF the position and locate both the town house units on their respective lots with varying degrees 77 of differences requirements. a~fordab]e to prevent sameness. in position and setback Also, the shape of the housing lots has also been varied this same potential degree of The site layout and orientation has already taken maximum advantage of the site slopes and nature] drainage so as to preserve and enhanse both of these. B. ALTERNATIVE SITES Not applicable. C. ALTERNATIVE SIZE There is no reasonable alternative to increasing or decreasing the proposed development of this s~te for the proposed use of affordable housing. Increasing the lot size would increase the cost of such lots, and immediately result in a price increase above the affordable housing maximum cost as set by the Town of Southold. 78 OecTeasing the lot Size would necessitate compliance with Health Department regulations regarding community water and sewer systems. The most practical method of accomplishing this would be to install a package type sewage treatment plant similar to that recently installed for the Shelter Island Heights Property Owners Corporation. A treatment plant at this location would, however, require an on-site recharge symtem and involve both Suffolk County Department of Health Services and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation approvals. Clustering so as to increase open space in addition to that already proposed is not a viable consideration. Overall density cannot be increased as per Article 6 of the Suffolk Sanitary Code without a treatment plant. Further clustering is considered impractical for a lot width consideration which Js already ]ess than the Code requirement (Variance is expected to be required> and the planning effort ]s towards improving visual impact, not reducing could cause to happen. Nith doss not appear economically the character and ~t as smaller lots the above in mind, feasible to pursue this alternative at this time. This increased density also would not be in character with the surrounding residential character. 79 It has already been established by the number of applicants that wish to be considered for the residential units in this Affordable Housing District. that there already exists a market demand, and community needs in excess of what is proposed. (See Appendix No. 4.) C. ALTERNATIVE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATING SCHEDULING There are no known facts at the preeent that suggest that alternative schedul)ng, for example a delay in action on the requested rezoning, or the subsequent development of the parcel, would in any way provide for additional mitigation of any environmental impacts foreseen. It is anticipated that the construction on the individual affordable housing lots will be at the schedule and diecression of the new Owners. and that for economic and efficiency reasons, the construction of the town houses would be based on a scheduJe that would insure their efficient accomplishment and a reasonable of time. 8O E. ALTERNATIVE LAND USE The proposed site of the Affordable Housing Development is suitable for a variety of sues include the following; to o Agriculture o Commerical or industrial facilities o Other types of housing with varying of density. This site was formerly farmland, and with clearing could be ~eturned to ,this use. An informal check of local residents has indicated that this area has not been farmed for over seven (7) years_ Returning this to agricultural production, with the increased use of fertilizer, etc., has a potential of contaminating the groundwater with nutrients such as nitrogen. Because of the residential nature of the surrounding area. the use of this site for commerical and industrial activities is not felt to be appropriate. It would be expected to meet with local resistance and be considered favorable by the Southold Town Planning Board. 81 F. NO ACTION The no action alternative examined in this instance would be for the Town Board's rejection of the Change of Zone and the Planning Board's failure to approve housing units. It to accomplish this this site for affordable is believed that such a failure frustrate the efforts of the Owner. Mr. Isaac Saidmehr, to undertake the development of this particular site to include affordable housing lots that will assist in helping fill the existing demand for Moderate Income housing. The end result to this no action alternative it would be expected that the applicant would withdraw his request for rezone and the property would continue to be in the two (Z> Acre zoning. This would mean that the plans for affordable housing would be discontinued for this particular site. As previously diecussed there are no significant environmental impacts pertaining to this proposed action, that would be avoided if the Town Board and the Town Planning were to pursue the no action alternative.

Growth Inducing Aspects X. GROt~TH INDUCING ASPECTS - Revised October 10, 1989 Revised November gl. 1989 A. POPULATION This development of moderate income housing is expected to result in a resident population of approximately one hundred twenty-six (]Z6> people. This cannot be dtrectly converted, however, into increased population as it is expected that the majority of the occupants (eligible participants) will be young working families that will relocate from other rentals in other parts of the Town, especially from the Hamlet of Southold. (See Housing Demographics in Appendix No. 4.) With practically no affordable housing within the Town, these young working families, out of economic necessity, have had to Jive with a catch can situation of available housing space, which also includes living with parents on an interim basis, unttl other means of housing could be obtained. Most often the concerns of a increased population and its schools. As explained above. development is impact on local there is very little school population increase expected, except some that will be expected to occur in the Southold School District because of the location of this particular project. Even in this situation, however, a small increase in school age population may be considered a plus because of the decline in school population (except for the last two years). Reference is mace to Appendix No. 6. A small increase in the school population should result in a better ratio of expense per pupil than now exists. B. SUPPORT FACILITIES It has been determined that existing businesses within the Town are sufficient to serve the hew housing units. An increase in support businssse~ often comes about from significant increase in population, but as pointed out in A above, this ie not likely to occur as a result of this particular project. Probably the most noticeable increase in service type work will be maintenance, including snow removal of the additional roads and streets within the housing area. would be felt gy Department. The most direct impact of this the Southold Town Highway C. DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL The project in itself is not expected to result in any increased development totential, mainly because of its self-contained nature. Because of the urgent need for moderate income housing of greater numbers than will be supplied by this project, the success of th:s one ie expected to give encouragement of several others to meet the areas requirements. 87 Ill Effects On The Use & Conservation of Energy Resources m XI.

This project is called Southold Villas. The Village of Greenport has a Policy Statement concerning on site and off site wells. This policy was adopted February 21, 1986. We have been offered 2 times the upfront money which would be {36 x 2570) : $92,520 x 2 - $185,040 instead of a well. Both the Utility Committee and the Village Board of Trustees are studying the proposal in hopes of coming to a speedy conclusion. We have been presented with an average daily load of 11,880 gallons per day. This may cause a peak of 29,700 gallons. We need a site plan so we can work on water main size, hydrant locations, and point or points of connection. We have attached a copy of the Villages - Water Department Policy for your 6ecord. We can assure you we are working on this appl'icatJon as fast as reasonable to determine our capability to serve. If I can be of further service, please contact me. JIM:lkm Znc.

CONNECTION TO THE VILLAGE OF GREENPORT'S SYSTEM IS THE ONLY LOGICAL SOLUTION AT PRESENT has public water m~ins to the North and South site is totally within franchise area for mun:cipal water. Greenport presently, along road rights-of-way, both o¢ the project site_ Also, the the Village of Greenport GREENPORT TEMPORARILY IS NOT IN A POSITION AT PRESENT TO SUPPLY WATER TO THIS PROJECT - Greenport is under mandate by various regulatory agencies to improve both their quality and quantity of available water supp)y before new prolects of this type can be connected.

AND ESPECIALLY INCREASED PUMPING CAPABILITY, MUST OCCUR OR ASSURANCES THAT THEY WILL OCCUR BEFORE AFFORDABLE HOOBING PROJECTS CAN BE APPROVED The Village of Greenport is doing specific planning and initiating actions for adding to their wster supply capability.

Funds voted on to improve water THE AVERAGE DAILY WATER REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT IS 11,880 GALLONS PER DAY - Using a multiplier of 2.9, the peak requirement fo~ the project site would be 29.700 galison per day. SOLUTION Considerable effort and d~scussion went into the developing of the best and most v~able solution to supply water to this affordable housing prolect_ Of the possible scenarios four (4> we~'e explored in detai! and include the fo]lowing: l_ DEVELOP AN ON-SITE WELL THAT WOULD ONLY SUPPLY THIS PARTICULAR PRO3ECT. The expectation of approval ~rom the Suffolk County Department o~ Health Services, because of the proximity of municipal mains and the marginal nitrate levels was highly unlikely. It would also mean that the developer would be placed in a position to not only develop this well, put in a nitrate removal system, requiring the hiring of personnel_ but operate it as well, licensed and trained operating 2_ DEVELOP THE ON-SITE WELL AND TURN IT OVER TO THE VILLAGE OF GREENPORT. This approach has considerable merit, especially seeing that it would move this project near the head of the list. based on the present Village of Greenport policies o~ water hooK-ups. Because of the well's marginal nitrate levels this well would be considered costly to develop and to operate (nitrate removal), making its acceptance by the Village unlikely. THE DEVELOPER, EITHER ON HIS OWN, OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER DEVELOPERS. OBTAIN OR LEASE A WELL SITE_ Obtain the necessary approvals, and install a welt compJete ~ith pump station, controls, and emergency support systems as required for a turn-key operation, after which it would be turned over to the Village of Greenport_ Seeing that this is an affordable housing proiect, from an economic point of view it was not rational to develop a 400.000 to ~00.000 gallons per day well when this project only required ]2,000 gallons per day. Actively pursuing this route could also be contrary to the overall Village's plans for their awn coursss of action in developing new full production wells. 4_ HOOK UP TO THE VILLAGE OF GREENPORT'S MUNICIPAL SYSTEH. The proiect site Greenport's water logical and legal decision would be is totally within the Village of franchise area and. from both a point of view. the only practical for this site to be connected to the existing Village municipal water mains. This direction is also the one recommended by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services. It is realized. however, that the Village of Greenport is under various mandates to increase and improve their wate~ supplies. and that the completion of these efforts could possJbJy delay actual construction. Discussions with Vtllage officials indicate that they are actively pursuing increased production capablJ it.y as well as improvement in water qua] ity, including the initiation of bonds for required funding. Therefore. tt Is considered that the only logical course of action is to stay on the Village's list of those requesting connection, and have the prolect ready for hook-up as soon as water service is available.

A discussion was held concerning the proposed Wa:er Department policy for water saving devices. Trustee Kapell said he thought teat it was a good. approach. He asked If the new type of fixtures would be more expensive, and Mrs. Cooper said they would not be. She stressed that In the State of New York devices that did not meet strict specifications were not allowed. If other than those devices are sold and installed, that would be done I]tegally. She added that the OEC policed those regulations. Also, the Village had a right to re[use hook-ups Inside or outside the Village If developers did not meet those specifications, Which would be Included In the Village gules & Regulations. Trustee Llebletn said a copy should be sent to the Southold Town. A motion was made by Trustee Cooper, seconded by Trustee Lleble]n and car- ried to adopt a Resolution enabling the Water Department policy concerning water saving devices to be adopted as Rules and Regulations of the Water Department.

Under the Transfer of Water Resource Program,'the applicant would be considered equal to those providing onsJte production. Incentives ~or applicants to fall Into Self Sustained Category. A) Both 8(1) and B(2) described applicants would have the cost of drill- Jng the well(s) and appurtances deducted from upfrmnt money, that deduction not to exceed the total upfront money assessed by the Village Board. However. the purchase price.of any offslte location will not be deducted from the "upfront money". B) It would be permlsstb]e under this Tt/B Program for two or more applicants to provide a con,non offslte well, If that well was determined by the Village Board to have sufflcie~lt quantity and quality to cover projected water demand of the total of the parti- cipating applicants. C) Applicants that fei! under the Self-Sustained category would be considered for Inclusion Into the Greenport Water System separate and aside from those failing under the System-Sustained Category. BENEFITS: A) VI]loBe Benefits - Applicant participation In finding and acquiring for the Greenport Water System, well sites which should assist Regular HeeLing February 21, 1986 Proposed Policy Statement, toni.: A) Greenport in obtaining quantity and quality needed to serve Its present franchise. B) Applicant (Self-Sustained) - Since an applicant falling into the Self-Sustained Category will be considered separate and aside from those described as System Sustained. this may expedite hookup into the system. C) Applicants (System Sustained) - The hope is ti)at there will be provided through the Self-Sustained mechanism an overall excess which, combined with Greenport Water System's efforts to seek new wells, wI)i facilitate faster inclusion of system sustained described applicants into the Greenport Water System. Mayor Hubbard asked If there were any questions about the Policy State- ment. Atty. Munzel remarked that such a Poticy StatemenL would only be effective tf It were made partmand parcel of the Rules and Regulations of the Village of Greenport. After a discussion Atty. Munzel said they would have to study the rules carefully, and adopt certain Rules and Regulations. Trustee Llebieln asked tf the wording of the Policy Statements was improper. and It was agreed that the:Suffolk Co, Oept. of Health should be consulted also. After discussion, Trustee Kapetl said that the Braft Policy Statement was the sort of thing that should be discussed with Mr. McLendon of H2H.

Institute for Long Island Regional of Anthropology, State University of New The 18 acre (7.3 hectare) parcel is situated west of and adjacent to Main Street (Route 25), south of Tuckers Lane, north of Bowery Lane, and east of the Long Island Railroad in the village of Southold, Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New York (Figure 1). Prior investigations in the vicinity of the project area have indicated a diverse cultural heritage, Archaeological remains suggest a broad period of Native American activity as well as colonial settlement and use of the area beginning before the middle of the seventeenth century. The purpose of this cultural resource assessment is to determine if the Southold Villas development project would adversely impact archaeological remains of prehistoric or historic age. In order to evaluate the kinds of historic and prehistoric remains that might be found within the project area, detailed archival research and a field inspection of the proposed development site were undertaken. ,.

The overview focuses primarily on the natural and cultural history of the area. The natural history includes a discussion of the environment and how it has changed over time, as well as the topography and physical resources of the area. The culture history includes a discussion of prehistoric and historic settlement patterns and.activities. A search of the available published records and site files of known prehistoric sites was undertaken to determine if any previous studies had documented archaeological remains in the project area. Pertinent historical records, such as maps, photographs, descriptive histories, land deeds, and wills were examined to obtain information on the historical activities in the study area. This investigation provided data on previous land owners, structures, and the types of land use practices that were employed in this area. An evaluation of the natural and cultural history of an area is essential to understanding contemporary land use, the configuration of natural resources and the reciprocal influences that have shaped the natural and cultural resources. The archival research is an attempt to provide this type of insight for the Southold Villas development pro3ect area. 3 NATURAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY Prehistoric Period. An overview of the published literature of Long Island sites indicates that prior research has not documented any archaeological remains within the Southold Villas development project area. It did provide evidence, however, for the potential existence of prehistoric activity in the area given the archaeological sensitivity of water sources such as creeks, bays, Long Island Sound, and ponds which encircle the pro3ect area. The formation of Long Island during glaciation left two spiny rows of hills, the Wisconsin stage of an expansive outwash plain to the south, and a partially elevated valley between the moraines. The peninsular features, ponds, and topographic relief that surround the pro3ect area were formed as a result of the transporting and eroding action of glacial meltwater approximately 12,000 to 15,000 years ago. After deposition of unconsolidated material, glacial meltwater continued to flow over the newly deposited material and cut a number of stream channels. These channels are identifiable as the creeks and inlets that characterize the south shore of the north fork. The Southold Villas pro3ect area is located on the Harbor Hill moraine, deposited by the latest glacial advance which formed Long Island. The plateau of the moraine declines from an altitude of 80 feet north of Riverhead to about Z0 feet at Orient point (Fuller 1914:169). There are several creeks on the south ~hore of the North Fork within a five kilometer radius of the project area. They include Hud Creek, Little Creek, Richmond Creek, Corey Creek, Cedar Beach Creek, Goose Creek, Jockey Creek, Town Creek, and Hill Creek. These creeks, adjoining wetland areas, as well as ponds provided a variety of resources that were utilized by Native Americans. The soils of the Southold Villas project area consist of Haven loam, 0-2 percent slopes, in the east and west sections; and Plymouth loamy sand, 3-8 percent slopes, in the central section (Figure 2). These two soils are characteristic of flat outwash plains, occurring less often on moraines, and have a very low natural fertility ranking, thereby making them less conducive to agriculture (Warner et al. 1975:71,78). The natural vegetation of the area includes salt marshes to the south and east, and mixed forests dominated by oak and pitch pine along the north and south coast of the north fork. Most natural vegetation of the surrounding area has been cleared or altered. The environmental attributes of the area suggest a diverse and abundant sustenance potential for the aboriginal hunter- gatherers of the north fork. Fresh and salt water resources, vegetal food, nuts, and local fauna would have been utilized by the Native Americans as part of their generalized subsistence base. f~mr.3 HaA CpA C Figure RdA Suffolk Count)' ~ O~ee~ Soil Suvvey, Scale 1:20,000_ The Suffolk County Archaeological Association cultural resource inventory of prehistoric sites reports several archaeological remains in the vicinity of the project area. At the Old Field site, about two kilometers northeast of the project area between Budds Pond and Sagust Creek, Nat Booth excavated an extensive Late Woodland site. He reported 161 refuse pits, 12 burials, and an ossuary of five skeletons, ss well as hundreds of ceramic vessels and sherds, pipe fragments, bone and antler implements, and 995 projectile points. Ritchie recovered triangular points and documented extensive middens at the Beixedon site, also about two kilometers northeast of the project area. Eight other prehistoric sites including two burial sites and a blade cache, all within a three kilometer radius of the project area, are documented in the S.C.A.A. cultural resource inventory (Gonzales and Rutsch 1978). Parker (1920) and Harrington (1900-195§) do not document any sites within the vicinity of the project area. Ethnographic and archaeological research suggests the distances over which hunter-gatherers commonly exploit food resources from residential bases on a daily basis, referred to as the catchment range, varies from five to ten kilometers (Vita- Finzi and Higgs 1970; Roper 1979;123-24). All of the aforementioned sites are well within this range. Using the tidal creeks and ponds as a base of operation, groups of Native Americans would have moved about in the vicinity gathering vegetal foods and nuts, as well as hunting and trapping wild birds and mammals. Within the catchment range task groups also would have procured available non-food resources such as firewood and lithic raw materials. While the shore area was primarily exploited for its marine life, the upland or inland forested zones were scenes of hunting and gathering. Historic Period. At the time of Anglo-American settlement the Native American name for the Southold area was Yinnicock (Prime 1845:131). The village of Southold is situated northwest of Town Creek about 10.5 kilometers southwest of Orient Point. The name of the town is derived from the English town of Southwold (Whitaker n.d.:lJ). It was also referred to as Toyong and The South Hold (Proehl and Shupe 1984:305). There are conflicting reports concerning the original settlement of Southold Town; all town records prior to 1651 are lost (Munsell 1882:1). One account states: One group came in the spring of 1638, having first stopped in North Carolina in search of turpentine. The captain of their small vessel was Matthew Sunderland... Eastern Long Island was at this time the private preserve of Sir William Alexander, the Earl of Stifling, a Scotch poet and dramatist and a favorite of Charles the First of England (Bailey 1949:147). An agent, James Farter (or Farrett)~ collected rent from Captain Sunderland as early as 1638 for his home at Ashamomoque, just west of Greenport (Bailey 1949:147). However, 1840 is the date which is generally accepted for settlement of the town. In that year a group of settlers from New Haven, Connecticut led by Reverend John Youngs, obtained a grant from James Farter to take up eight square miles of land 'where best suited them'. After 8 being turned away by the Dutch at Cow Bay in North Hempstead the group of about 40 families arrived in June (Munsell 1882:2-3). The eastern boundary of the first purchase made by the original settlers was Mill Creek extending from Peconic Bay to the sound; on the west the purchase was bounded by 'Fresh meadows', west of Cuchogue. Confirmation of this and subsequent purchases are stated in a 1665 Indian deed which claims ownership for all lands and their resources from 'Weading Kreek'(Wading River) to Plum Island bounded by Long Island Sound on the north and the Peconic River and Bay on the south (Munsell ]882:9-10). Among the first things, provision was made, for the support of the gospel, the education of the children, and the preservation of the public morals. And to preserve the infant settlement from the intrusion of unwholesome immigrants, a committee was appointed to regulate the admission of settlers; without whose consent no new inhabitant could be admitted ... (Prime 1845:131). Land divisions were made before the final deed of confirmation was obtained and were grouped into three areas situated from east to west: Oyster ponds divident, Curchsug divident, and Occabuk divident (Munsell 1882:11). These larger divisions were removed from the early inhabitants' four acre home lots which were generally 16 rods wide on the street by 40 rods wide (Whitaker n.d.:98). The home lots adjacent to the project area in the mid- seventeenth century are well documented. Proceeding south from Tuckers Lane on the west side of Main Street is the lot of John Tucker who was preceded here by Roger Cheston, and Nehemiah Smyth. Tucker extended this home lot to 70 acres along the south 9 side of what is new Tuckers Lane. South of Tucker was the lot of Joseph Horton, the eldest son of Barnabas Horton. Barnabas Wines, Sr. occupied the next lot. This lot is immediately north of the project area. The Barnabas Wines house was probably built in 1655, according to a plaque on the structure on that original foundation. The next lot south of Wines belonged to John Bayles who purchased it from Thomas Scudder in December 1656. Richard Terry owned the next lot south. On the east side of Main Street, Samuel King was across from John Tucker. John Elton had two adjoining lots south of King. John Cook (or Cock) owned the lot south of John Elton; Henry Case soon purchased this lot. Thomas Mapes, the town surveyor, owned the next lot to the south (Whitaker n.d.:97~98). It appears that a structure was not erected on the project area at this time, but the area was certainly part of the home lot of either Barnabas Wines Sr. the latter. Throughout the seventeenth or John Bayles et al., probably century and into the eighteenth century, the labor of clearing lands for agriculture continued. By 1675, the year of the first assessment role, there were 82 taxpayers within the entire town. One of the crops being grown which brought prosperity to several founding families was tobacco, which commanded a high price abroad. This crop was instrumental in the production of staves to ship the tobacco in barrels (Hall 1975:47,50). The farmers of Southold spread the fish know6 as menhaden on 10 their fields as fertilizer. Seines up to a mile in length were employed to catch them. These nets were drawn in by a horse around a large windlass (Hall 1975:52). A shipping industry became established in Southold early in the town's history. Town Creek was much deeper then, and handled large vessels. By 1690, the amount of shipping clearing in and out of the town caused the governor of New York, Thomas Dongan, to take action. He required that all vessels be reported to New York and be cleared (Hall 1975:55-56). The 1797 Moore map (Figure 3) depicts Main Street running adjacent to the Project area as yell as to the western extensions of the two creeks. The map indicates no structures within or adjacent to the project area, although archival research reveals that at this time there have been structures on both sides of this section of Main Street for almost 150 years. The absence of any reference to a structure between the original Wines and Bayles lots in early sources suggests that the area was under cultivation, however, it is possible that outbuildings existed within the eastern section of the project area, or that refuse was dumped there early in the colonial period. The wind mill depicted at the west end of town was constructed in the second half of the seventeenth century. In the 1679 record the town voted to give Joshua Horton, Abraham Corey, and Daniel Terry to acres on what is still known as Mill Hill, at the western edge of Southold village 'to set a Wind Mill on ye said land ...' (Hall 1975:58). Another very early mill is 11 PROJECT AREA Figure 3. 1797 map of the Town of Southold, Scale 1:31,680. Thomas Moore, 12 depicted east of the project area at Town Harbor (creek), and there may have been several at that location (Hall 197§:59). The meeting house north of Main Street and east of the project area appears to be the third meeting house of Southold built in 1711 (Whitaker n.d.:l$7). Ezra L'Hommedieu directed the construction of the brick schoolhouse in 1794 (Wood 1949:153-154) (Figure 3). A structure does appear within the project area on the 1838 U,S. Coast Survey (Figure 4). An outbuilding generally oriented north-south is depicted on the lot and behind the old Bayles, Tuthill, Cory house. This structure may be a barn at this time, and it could be the shop which will be noted on the expanded version of the 1909 Ullitz map (Figure 6). The square which is not blacked in, north of the structure~ is also within the project area. It may be an animal pen or shed. In any case, while taking into account the minor errors which sometimes are present on a map of this age, it still must be concluded that these two structures were situated within the east neck of the project area, in the grassy area with saplings described below. A linear pattern of settlement along Main Street is apparent on the 1838 U.S. Coast Survey (Figure 4). The project area itself as well as %he other lots on either side of Main Street are characterized by an absence of wooded areas, indicating cleared fields, At the time of the 1838 map, the original four acre home lots are reduced. There are few wooded lots left within the town due to cutting for fires and agricultural clearing. 13 ~' '-'~' '"' ,P.~ OJ.E C T AREA Figure 4. 1838 U. S.

The Universalist church, built in 1836, ia depicted as is Southold Academy, constructed in 1834. The Southold Academy building was sold to the Catholic Church after 1862 (Munsell 1882:24-25). The Presbyterian church to the east was built in 1803 on the site of the two earlier churches. The original church was constructed in 164] and was converted into the county jail in 1684. Two other edifices were erected at that location before the present one (Thompson 1918:255-256) (Figure 4). At this time, Southold is typical of many towns on Long Island. "The farms, one hundred ~r one hundred and fifty acres in size, were fenced with rails or posts" (Gabriel 1921:38). By 1840 Greenport was becoming a whaling port and the shipping and shipbuilding industries were transferred from Southold village to Greenport (Whitaker n.d.:176). The enlarged section of the 1873 Beers map (Figure 5) depicts a blacksmith shop owned by Mrs. Cleveland just north of the northeast corner of the project area. This structure was on the property of Jane and Thomas Franke (original Barnabas Wines Sr.lot) until about 15 years ago when it was moved to the Southold Historical society (J. Franke 1889: pets. comm.). The neighbor on the south side of the project area is now G. Alfred Case. The north section of the project area also encompasses portions of the properties of Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. W. F. Horton, and Mrs. J. Horton at this time. PROJECT AREA Figure 5. 1873 Beers map expanded version, Scale 1:3,240. 17 The 1873 Beers map (Figure 5) depicts part of a building within the project area. The south boundary of the project area bisects a building on the G. Alfred Case property. This may be the same structure referred to above on the 1838 map, but it is now depicted closer to the road. Once again, it may be the same building as the shop on the 1909 Ullitz map Figure 6). The 1873 Beers (Figure 5) map may be inaccurate; if this is the shop structure seen on the 1909 map, it was either completely within the project area in 1873, or it was subsequently moved. Drastic changes had occurred in Southold by the second half of the nineteenth century. The construction of the Long Island Railroad Greenport line was completed in 1844, forming a link between New York and Boston (Thompson 1918:252). Southold is a stop on the Greenport line. Since the earliest settlements these people had been isolated. "Until 1844, New York City had been three days away from these people. It was now five hours (Gabriel 1921:135-136)." The entire southern section of the project area is still owned by the Case family, Charles E. Case, according to the 1909 Ullitz map (Figure 6). The northeast section is owned by Virginia Cleveland, the north section is designated as the estates of Jeremiah Horton, and J. Halsey Tuthill, and a small portion of the northwest section is The 1909 Ullitz map (Figure 6) the east neck of the project area. is situated on the portion of the project area owned owned by "Gaffga". locates a structure within It is labeled as a "shop" and by Charles 18 E. Case. The nature of the shop's business is not listed, but it was probably a manufacturing, not a retail establishment. This structure could be the one within the project area on the 1838 U.S. Coast Survey (Figure 4), and the expanded version of the 1873 Beers map (Figure 5). It is possible, however, that some or all of these structures were different buildings which were erected and torn down over the course of more than 70 years. The blacksmith shop, known to be just north of the project area, is designated as belonging to the Cleveland estate at this time. The soldiers monument is shown at the intersection of Main Street and Tuckers Lane (Figure 6). The enlarged section of the 19Z9 Dolph and Stewart map (Figure 7) depicts the project area as part of the estate of John Diller. However, at this time the property is owned by the Young family. They planted the orchard which is still growing untended on the project area today (J. Franke 1989:pers. comm.). The 1943 U.S.G.S. map (Figure 8) illustrates the development that has taken place in the village of Southold. This is the earliest map which conclusively shows that the Case outbuildings are no longer in existence within the project area. A barn which is standing today was constructed just south of the southeast section of the project area prior to this period. The project area still belongs to the Young family. They have erected numerous chicken houses on the property. There was a large chicken house on the site of the garage presently standing in the east section. These chicken houses were devastatgd by the PROJECT AREA od~ z l~ /.4' cz: Figure 7. 1929 Dolph and Scale 1:10,440. Stewart map, 20 expande~ version, Figure fl. 1943 U.S.G.S.

The 1956 U.S.G.S. map (Figure 1) indicates no structures in the project area. The position of the project area relative to the creeks extending from the Peconic Bay and Long Island Sound is shown, as well as the shallow depression located within the southern section of the project area. More recently, the project area was leased by Mrs. Young for agricultural purposes. Crops were grown, as well as blueberries and the fruits mentioned above (J. Franke 1989: pers. comm.). The archival research suggests that the project area was exploited intensively during the early historic period as a cultivated section of a homelot. Considering the proximity of the Wines Sr. and Bayles houses, refuse may have been discarded ~ithin the east neck of the project area at this time. By the early nineteenth century an out building of the old Bayles house, and a possible animal pen are found on the 1838 U.S. Coast survey (Figure 4), within the east neck of the project area. This may be the structure which is indicated within the property of G. Alfred Case on the expanded version of the 1873 Beers map (Figure 5), or the shop depicted on the 1909 Ullitz map (Figure 6) on the property of Charles E. Case (old Bayles homelot). Some of these structures, however, may be different buildings which were erected in the same general location. Presently, only one outbuilding is still standing on the project area, and it is of twentieth century construction and associated with the agricultural fields which comprise most of the project area. FIELD INSPECTION A field inspection of the Southold Villas project area was conducted on September 28, 1989. The major portion of the property consists of a fallow field. Vegetation consists primarily of high grasses and weeds with some bayberry, cedar, and one birch. There are the remains of an orchard in the northeast central section of the project area, which extends nearly south in a thinner band to the south boundary. Fruit trees observed in this area are mainly apple, with some pear and crabapple trees. These trees are not attended to at present and in general appear to be less than 60 years old. There is a working orchard on the ad3oining property to the south. The vegetation immediately west of Main Street consists of grass, weeds which include chicory and clover, some wild rose, locust saplings, and a few hickory saplings. No topographical indicators of historic structures were noted in this area. The vegetation has been mown down to create paths just west of this area. A small pile of lumber containing wire nails was noted ad3acent to one of these tracks near the south boundary. There is a gentle rise in elevation in general from east to west with a maximum height of nearly forty feet at the northwest corner of the property according to the July 13, 1988 survey of Peconic surveyors and engineers, P.C. There is a shallow linear depression extending north into the east central area. Due to vegetation there is nearly zero ground surface visibility throughout the project area. No cultural material was observed within a few small areas cleared of vegetation. trowel probe in the central silty loam. There is one structure section revealed a plow zone A of brown within the project area at present, a two door garage which was constructed around 1940. A gravelly drive extends to it from Main Street in the east neck of the project area. 24 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS vicinity of possibility The existence of the project area indicates that there is a of prehistoric cultural remains within the project several documented prehistoric sites in the The east neck of the project area, adjacent to Main Street, has been a location of intensive land use for nearly 350 years. Due to the proximity of continuously inhabited houses dating to the seventeenth century, the former existence of an early nineteenth century outbuilding, a~d a possible animal pen within the project area, an early nineteenth century to early twentieth century outbuilding and/or shop within the project area, and a nearby late nineteenth - early twentieth century blacksmith shop, there is a strong likelihood of significant historic cultural remains being located in the east neck section of the project area, The archival search suggests that the east neck of the project area contains significant historic cultural remains. In addition, there is the potential for prehistoric cultural remains within the entire project area due to the proximity of the project area to many known prehistoric sites as well as water resources. It is therefore recommended that a Stage I-B subsurface investigation be conducted within the project area. 25 BIBLIOGRAPHY Beers, F. W. 1873 ~tlas of Lon~ Island, Cline, New York. New York.

RECEIVED Date: December 8, 1989 DEC 1 1 1989 Re: Review of Revised Draft EIS Sc~,~f~l,~ · ..... ,-,~,~ Revision Date November 21, 1989 Southold Villas, Inc. We have completed the review of the revised Draft EIS for the above refe. renced project, submitted to this office for review on November 24, 1989. In rewew of the document, it appears as though the majority of the comments from our letter of July 10, 1989 have been addressed. There are however, some areas which have not been responded to at this time. These include: List of soil constraints as per Suffolk County Soil Survey. Groundwater information (direction of flow, seasonal variation). Discussion of existing noise generated from adjacent farm. Discussion of land use plans pertinent to development in Southold Town and the subject site. Reference for information indicating SCDHS determination that in excess of 200 housing units can be connected to Village Water Plant (page 39). Disposition of excavated material. Discussion of projects compliance with SCDHS sewage disposal requirements (Article 6)_ Delineation of natural and landscaped areas on conceptual plan. Mechanism for implementation of mitigation measures. These comments are of varying importance; however, it is our opinion that they can for the most part be addressed during the comment period on the Draft EIS, for inclusion in the Final ElS. One of the more substantive of these comments is the need to demonstrate the projects conformance to Article 6 for se, nitary disposal. It is expected that the County will provide input on this during the comment period_ Accordingly, in review of the overall document, it is found to be substantially complete, and is consistent with the intent of the State Environmental Quality Review 54 NORTH COUNTRY ROAD, MILLER PLACE, NY 11764 (516) 331-1455 Page 1 of 2 Southold Villas, Inc. Review of Revised Draft ElS Act, for a complete Draft EIS. There are two (2) notable exceptions which we feel must be addressed prior acceptance of the document. These are as follows: The conclusion on Page 53 of the document regarding cultural resources must be eliminated as it is inaccurate and not supported by archaeological references. The applicant has made a reasonable attempt to document cultural resource site sensitivity, which has resulted in a finding that the site is both historically, and pre-historically sensitive. Additional subsurface investil~ation w~ll be necessary to determine the potential for irreversible loss of sigmficant cultural resources. It will be our recommendation in the review of the Draft EIS, that a scope of work be agreed upon, and that this impact be addressed prior to any construction on the subject site. We would be pleased to assist in the coordination of this investigation in order to determine the most cost effective and expeditious manner of addressing this impact. In summary, at this time the conclusion that a Stage I-B subsurface investigation is not warranted, should be eliminated from the document. The Assessment of Potential Nitrogen Contamination, contained in Appendix #2 is inaccurate, as it does not consider nitrogen loading from sewage disposal. In lieu of this Assessment, we recommend that the applicant reference a simulation contained in the report Land Use and Ground-Water Quality in the Pine Barrens of Southampton (Hughes and Porter, 1983), for a project of similar characteristics to Southold Villas. With the Board's authorization, we would be pleased to directly contact Peconic Associates, to clarify the exact reference and method of presentation. As these recommended revisions require fairly minor changes in the text of the document, we recommend that excerpts of these revised pages be resubmitted by the applicant for final review and recommendation as to the completeness of the document. If you are in agreement with this correspondence, it is suggested that this be forwarded directly to the applicant so that the appropriate revisions may be prepared. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call. Page 2 of 2 CRAMER, VOORHIS & ASSOCIATES ENVIRONMENTAL AN[:) PLANNING CONSULTANTS July 10, 1989 Judith T.

This review is provided in conformance with the Town Board's request Task II, as outlined in the resolution dated July 21, 1989. As indicated in the review, it is our opinion that the document is not acceptable with respect to scope, content and adequacy, for the purpose of public review. It is our recommendation that the Board review this correspondence, and if you are in agreement, provide a copy of this review to the applicant, as the lead agency's review of the document, thereby outlining the need and reasons for the rejection. As it is the lead agencies responsibility to determine the acceptability of the submission within 30 days (extendable to 60 days), it is recommended that the Board utilize this letter as the lead agency's position on the document. This will avoid confusion if letters are received from other agencies during this initial review period. As provided by SEQR, each of the involved agencies will have the opportunity to review the document upon acceptance. Thank you for the opportunity to be of service to the Town Board of the Town of Southold, and please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions regarding this correspondence or the Draft EIS review. enc:Draft ElS Review 54 NORTH COUNTRY ROAD, MILLER PLACE, NY 11764 (516) 331-1455 CRAMER, VOORHIS & ASSOCIATES ENVIRONMENTAL AND PLANNING CONSULTANTS To: Judith T. Terry, Town Clerk Town of Southold From: Cramer, Voorhis and Associates Date: July 10, 1989 Re: Review of Draft Southold Villas, Inc. Dated: June 1989 RECEIVED JUL I 3 '1989 Sm.d~,ol8 1' ..... We are in receipt of the Draft EIS for the above referenced project and have reviewed the document with respect to scope, content and adequacy, as per the Town Board's resolution of June 21, 1989, and in accordance with 6 NYCRR Part 617.8 (b)(1). This review pertains to the Southold Villas project which involves a proposed change of zoning of 18.021 acres in the Town of Southold from "A" Residence to "AHD" Affordable Housing District. The site is located on the west side of N¥S Route 25, approximately 1500 feet north of Ackerly Pond Lane, in Southold. This review has been conducted in consideration of; SEQR requirements for Draft EIS's, the Scoping Checklist completed for this project, and the desire to provide an accurate, consistent and substantiated document. the Please be advised that it is our opinion, that the document in it's present form, is not adequate for the purpose of commencing public review, with respect to scope and content. In review of the document, we find numerous vague and misleading statements, areas of insufficient information, and errors. The following, is a comprehensive review of the Draft EIS, indicating the specific areas of the document which require revision. It is recommended that the revisions be incorporated into the text of the document, rather than in the form of an addendum, in order to provide an understandable document which will be suitable for review by the general public. Page 1 of 13 54 NORTH COUNTRY ROAD, MILLER PLACE, NY 11764 (516) 331-1455 Southold Villas, Inc. Review of the Draft ElS Il. SUMMARY Pages 1-3 The summary should reflect the content of the main body of the Draft EIS, Therefore, any changes which are required in the overall document should be revised in the summary. The issue of water supply is extremely vague in the document. The summary indicates the project will utilize, ...water mains in close proximity to the project site". The ability of the project to supply a source of water has not been demonstrated. The summary indicates that the use of the, "...public system is the direction required by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services", yet the only support for this contention is on Page 39, where it is stated that, "Based on discussions with the Suffolk County Department of Health Services the Owner has decided that the best approach for providing water to the proposed development is to hook up site mains to the Village of Greenport's system as soon as capacity becomes available from their present expension [sic] efforts now under way." This discrepancy, and the position of the Health Department should be clarified. Additional detail regarding water supply will be discussed in appropriate sections of this The list of impacts on Page 3 of the summary should include a list of adverse impacts as well. Adverse impacts include but are not limited to: loss of wildlife habitat and impact to species utilizing the site, loss of open space, precedent setting nature of the project, and land use impacts resulting from an increase in density adjacent to lower density and agricultural uses.

PROJECT PURPOSE, NEED AND BENEFITS Pages 6-8 It should be noted that the projected affordable housing need as indicated in Appendix 4, calls for 515 units over a 10 year period. Page 7 refers to the construction of 16 single family homes. Other portions of the document refer to 18 single family lots. The exact number of homes and reference to either construction of homes or provision of lots should be consistent and accurate. The statement at the end of Page 7 regarding the lessening of problems in the Town without the creation of new ones, is unsupported. The Town is obviously concerned about the environmental planning issues, as indicated in the positive declaration. B. LOCATION OF PROPOSED PROJECT Page 8 The Suffolk County Tax Map Number, and the tie distance of the parcel to the nearest crossroads, should be included in the text of this section. C. DESIGN AND LAYOUT Page The proposed method of handling sanitary waste is an important aspect of the design and layout, which is not discussed at all in this section. This section should quantify the square footage of impervious surfaces, landscaped area, turfed area, and natural vegetation, expected to remain following construction of the project, as required in the Scoping Checklist included in Appendix 1. Open space restrictions, covenanted areas, and project amenities (if applicable), which are part of the design and layout of the project, should be stated in this section. D.

Surface and Topography Pages 14-17 Soil constraints for various residential uses, as analyzed in the Soil Survey of Suffolk County, should be included in this section. There is no discussion of the topography of the site, as was required in the Scoping Checklist. The use of the Soil Survey for site specific topography is inadequate. It is noted that there is a small swale which slopes toward the ad3acent property to the south. B. WATER RESOURCES 1. Groundwater Pages 18-19 This section of the Draft EIS provides none of the important information which was required in the Scoping Checklist. Information which should be provided includes: groundwater elevation beneath the site (with reference), seasonal variation, direction of flow, existing water quality, and public, private and agricultural usage of water in the area. D. TERRESTRIAL AND AQUATIC ECOLOGY 2. Fish, Shellfish and Wildlife Page 21 The text of the report should provide an accurate summary of the findings of the ecology report contained in Appendix 5. Appendix 5 states, "The many grain species of grasses, plus the dense nature of the cover, make old fields excellent habitat for small mammals (especially rodents) and birds. Productivity is high specially where soil types are (or were) condusive [sic] to agriculture." In addition, the text indicates that, "No rare, threatened or endangered species of plant animal or birdlife are known to inhabit on the parcel."; however, Appendix 5 indicates that a red-tailed hawk, a New York CRAMER, VO~RkI~. ~/A~SOClATES ENVIRON M E NT~%k_~_~¢~G CONSULTANTS Page 5 of 13 Southold Villas, Inc. Review of the Draft ElS State "threatened species", was observed circling overhead in search of the type of food source which the site habitat provides. The on-site hunting habitat for the red-tailed hawk should be acknowledged so that impact may be discussed. E.

LAND USE AND ZONING 1. Existing Land Use and Zoning Pages 27-28 This section lacks the information necessary to determine the compatibility of the proposed use with existing land use and zoning. The existing land use ad.}acent to the site's north, south and west sides, should be described. Of special note is the active orchard to the south of the sub3ect site. The use of farm equipment (noise), and application of pesticides, should be considered, in order to determine impacts associated with an increase in density of residential use on the subject site. Land Use Plans This section of the Draft EIS refers the reader to Section III.C., which provides no information on land use plans. A discussion of the Master Plan, the Master Plan Update, and applicable portions of the Zoning Code should be presented. C. COMMUNITY SERVICES 8. Water Supply Pages 34-35 With regard to water supply, the Draft EIS states the following: "The Village of Greenport has plans and work underway to increase the pumping including the development of additional wells that will increase the CRAMER, VC~R~ , ~/9~'/,~,~'~,SOOIATES Page 6 of 13 Southold Villas, Inc. Review of the Draft ElS system's capability far in excess of the proposed development's needs, so as not only to supply the development with it's required water supply, but also to increase the reserve for the Village of Greenport's potable water system." The assertions in this statement must be supported with factual references from the Health Department or the Water District. It is our understanding that the additional one (1) MGD, which the Health Department has required the Water District to supply during 1988-1989, is needed in order to meet current demand, and possibly supply water to some already approved projects, rather than supply water to new proposal which involve density increases. Page 35 states the following: "The Village of Greenport Water District regulations were recently amended to provide preferential considerations for water hook-up outside of the Incorporated Village to major sub-divisions which are categorized as "Self Sustained"...". It should be noted that the subject application is "System Sustained", as opposed to "Self Sustained", thereby implying that it would not be given preferential treatment. CULTURAL RESOURCES Pages 41-42 The fact that there are no known aboriginal sites within or adjacent to the project site, only indicates that there is a lack of information regarding archaeological resources in this area. The Suffolk County Archaeological Association (1979), reports that this site is in an area of "intensive aboriginal habitation", in terms of sensitivity. Consequently, there is a potential for irreversible loss of cultural resources. The need for this information was outlined in the Part III EAF prepared by the Town Board, as well as the Scopin~ Checklist for this project, The project site should also be considered in the context of historic homes adjacent to the site. Accordingly, the Towns inventory of historic structures prepared by the Society for the Preservation of Long Island Antiquities (SPLIA), should be consulted, Page 7 of 13 Southold Villas. Inc.

WATER RESOURCES 1. Groundwater Pages 43-44 The proposed project density should be discussed in terms of compliance with Suffolk County Department of Health Services (SCDHS) density requirements under Article $ of the Sanitary Code. The project will result in the application of nitrogen on the site from sewage, fertilizer and pet waste. Although the site was previously used for agriculture, there is generally a non-degradation policy in terms of groundwater impacts from proposed development in Suffolk County. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify the impacts of the project upon groundwater, and assess the significance of these impacts in terms of water usage down gradient of the project site. D. TERRESTRIAL AND AQUATIC ECOLOGY The discussion of impacts upon site ecology is misleading and incomplete, particularly in view of information supplied in Appendix 5. It is established in Appendix 5, that the site provides valuable habitat to birds and small mammals. In addition, a New York State Threatened Species was observed above the site, which provides hunting habitat for the red-tailed hawk. Accordingly, it is important to quantify the changes in site habitat, and determine the impacts resulting from same. In addition, Appendix 5 states that the project, "...will drastically alter the environment and require CRAMER, VO~FII~ ~/~SOCIATES E N V I R O N M E N T~;A_.N_ ~'~/~,,N G CONSULTANTS Page 8 of 13 Southold Villas, Inc.

The Long Island Regional Planning Board reports an average household size of 2,5 persons, in Southold for the year 1988. In addition, SCDHS uses a flow of 300 gpd for a single family residence.

The Health Department will allow clustering of an established yield through lot size reduction without the need for a sewage treatment plant, provided the yield does not exceed the density limitation under Article 6. As indicated in the opening paragraphs of this review, the above items should be amended into the text of the proposed Draft EIS, in order to provide a submission which conforms to the intent and requirements for a Draft EIS in accordance with SEQR.

Terry, Town Clerk RECEIVED 2 S 1990 FROM: Bennett Orlowski, Jr., Chairman ~/0% Members of the Planning Board RE: Petition for Change of Zone of Southold Villas for change from "A-C" to "AHD" on property located north of SR 25, approximately 1108' east of Ackerly Pond Lane, Southold. SCTM 9 1000-070-01-06. Date: March 27, 1990 The Planning Board wishes to go on record as opposing this change of zone application. The following is the Planning Board's resolution of March 26, 1990. WHEREAS the Town Board is holding a public hearing on the change of zone petition of Southold Villas, Inc., to change the zone of 18.021 acres from Agricultural-Conservation to Affordable Housing District, BE IT RESOLVED That the Planning Board feels that this affordable housing project should not be approved at this time. The reasons for this recommendation are as follows: There are serious problems inherent in the affordable housing legislation as represented by the Affordable Housing District section of the Zoning Code, and the current legislation grants a developer considerable economic incentive to provide affordable housing, but also puts the Town at the risk of losing these lots to the real estate market seven years after they are created. As a result, the Town will be forced to continually downzone properties to half-acre density throughout the Town in order to meet the affordable housing need. The Planning Board feels that once desireable, affordable housing is created, it should be permanent. This Board is concerned, also, by the precedent that has been set by the DBM Affordable Housing Project, otherwise known as Highpoint Meadows. At present, the Town has no enforceable g~arantee that the affordable housing will be built on the affordable lots in this subdivision. It is quite possible that some of the buyers of these lots will sell them on the open market after holding the land for seven years. The Board is concerned about concentrating too much affordable housing in one hamlet. At present, thirty nine lots are proposed to be created in Greenport, and twenty eight lots have been created in Southold. It is felt that affordable housing should be made available throughout the entire Town. However, the Town has not made any determinations as to how many and what type of affordable housing units are needed; nor how many units should be located within each hamlet. A clear policy statement of goals and objectives should be drafted to guide the Town Board and the Planning Board in its efforts to provide affordable housing for Town residents.

The Board feels that the change of zone, if approved, should be subject to conditions that would require the housing to remain affordable for a minimum of 30 years from its construction, if not longer. The Planning Board also feels that the price is to be covenanted as stated in the applicant's proposal. These conditions should be filed as covenants and restrictions on the land. TO: FROM: RE: DATE: Bennett Orlowski, Jr., Chairman Judith T. Terry, Town Clerk Valerie Scopaz, Town Planner Proposed Covenants and Restrictions for Southold Villas SCTM ~ 1000-70-1-6 July 30, 1990 I have reviewed the proposed covenants and restrictions for the above-noted property. The draft seems to reflect the terms of the Town Board's May 22nd resolution, with one exception. It should be noted that there is no written record of the Planning Board requiring a one-hundred (100) foot buffer on the east side of the affordable housing section. The Planning Board had suggested a twenty-five (25) foot buffer, which the applicant then incorporated in his initial application to the Town Board in 1987. If the one hundred foot buffer is being required by the Town Board, then the resolution and the declaration should be corrected to reflect same. In reviewing this draft declaration several questions came to mind. First, the wording of subsection 2.b. of the draft declaration does not specify to whom in Town government the property owner is supposed to provide the notice of intent to sell. Should it be addressed to the Town Clerk, the Supervisor, the Town Attorney? In other words, who will be responsible for handling the correspondence, presenting the offer to the Town Board, following up on the Town Board's response to the owner, handling the legal paperwork? Second, the use of the term "maximum resale price" could be clarified because the term suggests that there is no allowable resale price above that amount, period. For example, Subsection 2.a. states clearly that "The maximum resale price shall not exceed the purchase price paid by the owner, plus an adjustment for the increase in the consumer price index from the date of purchase to the date of sale, plus reasonable and necessary resale expenses." Yet, when you get to Subsection 2.c., it states that "Any profit realized by the seller exceeding that set forth above...shall be paid over to the Town... for affordable housing purposes." This wording suggests that there is indeed a resale price that is allowed over and above the maximum price. This is a minor point, but the language is somewhat misleading. Third, Subsection 2.a. also does not define "reasonable and necessary resale expenses". Neither does the Town Zoning Code. Fourth, the wording of Subsections 2.c. and e. raises the issue of enforcement. How will the Town be able to determine the owner's profit (which is defined in the declaration as "the portion of the resale price in excess of the maximum allowable resale price"), particularly if the "profit" part of the selling price of the lot is paid for in cash and no record is kept of the cash transaction? This loophole appears to be a rather easy and tempting one to exploit. Finally, Subsection e. as written does not seem to meet the spirit of the Town Board's resolution. A reading of Subsection e. suggests that its contents pertain only to those lots that are subject to Section 2. In other words, the restrictions on dwelling units that are set forth in Subsection e. will pertain only to those units located on lots resold pursuant to Section 2. It will pertain only to those lots which are resold. Is this the Town Board's intent? Or do you wish all affordable homes to be subject to the 10 year resale provision regardless of whether the lot had been resold? I hope this information will be of use to the Town Board.

For the affordable housing portion of the project to become a reality, it is critical that the review process proceed in an expedited and coordinated manner with the support of the Town Board. We understand the volume of work facing the environmental consultants who will review the enclosed document for the Board, and we urge you to impress upon them the importance of affordable housing projects and the timeliness with which the necessary review process must be undertaken to keep these projects affordable. If review of the affordable housing cannot proceed promptly, the project begins to lose economic viability for this private sector applicant and this opportunity to provide much needed affordable housing in Southold is lost. We urge the Board to support the proposed affordable housing project and to take the affirmative steps available to it to insure the success of this effort. Your cooperation, which is essential, is greatly appreciated.

See Appendix 4 KEY MAP SCALE I"z ~' A_ PRO3ECT PURPOSE. NEED AND BENEFITS THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS IN OUR COMMUNITY One o{ the crucial problems facing the Town of Southold today is the lack of affordable housing_ The problem is so severe that, within the last three years, the Town has studied the problem and enacted an "AFFORDABLE HOUSING DISTRICT" in the Town's zoning ordinance. The average building lot is Southold today nou costs $80,000_00 and a home $190,000.00. These costs have driven the ~orking class from our COmmunity. As a result, Southold is becoming a second bedroom community. To date. the on]y successes ~n the area of a~fordab]e housing have been in the form of subsidized housing ~here government has donated free land. Unfortunately, these e~forts have not met the needs and expectations of the community in providing the number of housing units necessary. The estimated number of affordable housing units needed for Southold To~n is )~0 to ~]~. (See Appendix No. The proposed project is not subsidized by any governmental agency_ It is created by prorate capital to brind housing for the public good_ Upon completion, Southold Town w~l I have at least 16 single family affordable homes which w~l I have been created without any cost to the Town or taxpayers. In fact, the poposed proiect ~lll add to the Town's tax base. and it will bring new Itfe and v~tal~t¥ to the community. This project proposes the dividing of the total proiect site into two (Z) parts - one for town houses and one Cot affordable housing lots_ By the using this methodology and planning concept. town houses can be used to underwrite a portion of the site development costs in the affordable housing parcel. The affordable lots ~i] ] be sold as such, with the purchasers of these arranging for their own construction of the individual homes, which would be in accordance with the Southold Town Building Code. This methodology also permits the use of "sweat equtty" by the purchaser of the lot and the builder of the affordable home. The proposed project will lessen a major ppoblem in the Town of Southold ~ithout creating any additional ones. The proiect is designed to be a showcase for affordable housJng and a credit to the community. It will be the solution - a solution that will Town and it's people for years beginning of the bens?it Southold to come_ The proiect location next to the hamlet of Southo]d :s consistent ~th the goals of the proposed Master Plan to have ham]et des:ty housing in close proximity to ex~sting hamlets_ LOCATION OF PROPOSED PROJECT As previously stated, the 1B.021 Acre parcel proposed for rezon~ng and development is located on the Northerly side of State Highway, New York Route 29, approximately ),}00 feet East of Ackerly Pond Lane_ The Affordable Housing Zone lots only are on the Southern portion of the property, and the Town House portion occupies the Northern part of the property.

IV. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING NATURAL RESOURCE The pr~ncipa] natural environmental setting ~ts geology. ~gricultura] resources which contribute to the A. GEOLOGY ]. Subsurface Not Applicmble 2_ & 3- Surfacs and Topograph¥ The geology of this parcel proposed for re~oning and development is considered typical of the geology found throughout Southoid Township. Upper Pleistocene deposits form the overall land mass of the North Fork, consisting of stratified sands and gravels with some thin beds of clay encountered. These Upper Pleistocene deposits range to approximately 200 feet be]ow sea level. The soil for this site is c]assi{ied as Haven Series with a small amount of Plymouth Series. (See U_S.C.S. Soils Map Figure ] ) The Haven Series consists of deep. well drained. medium textured soils that form )n a loamy or s) lty mantel over strat)~ied course sand and g~avel_ The topsoil is geoera]l¥ 14 L I approximately ten (10) Inches thick, w~th a sub-soil of dark brown to strong brown friable loam to a depth of about nineteen (19) inches The lower part, (2B) inches. ~s gravelly loam. fifty-five (~) to a depth of twenty-e~ght yellow~sh-brown, friable The substratum, to a depth of inches, ts yellowish-brown to brownish-yellow loose sand and gravel_ Haven soils have high to moderate available moisture capacity_ internal drainage is good_ Permeability is moderate in the surface layer and subeoil and rapid or very rapid in the subetratum_ Have! Loam <HaA> is moetly nearly level with slopes of 0 to 2 percent. The hazard of erosion is slight on this Haven soil_ Thie soil is ueed extensively for crops, and it is well suited to all crops con~monly grown in the county. Because o¢ the nearly level elope and eaee of excavation. this type of coil is often used for housing developments and industrial parks. The Plymouth Seriee excessively drained. form in a mantle of consists of deep. coarse-textured soils loamy sand or sand over that thick layers of stratified coarse sand and gravel. In a representative profile the surface layer is very dark grayish-brown loamy sand. 16 about four (4> inches thick. The subsoil is ye]low~sh-brown and brown, very friable and loamy sand to a depth of ~bout twenty-seven inches_ The substmatom, to a depth of about fifty-eight (~0) inches, is yellowish-brown, loose gravelly coarse sand. Plymouth soils Natural fertility ~s low. Internal drainage good and permeability is rapid_ Plymouth Loamy Sand (P1B> slopes undulating and often occur along the sides of intermittent drainageways, and follow the course of the drainage channel, which is true in this particular instance. The hazard of erosion is slight on this Plymouth soil, but tends to be droughty_ This soil is fairly well suited to crops commonly grown in the County. In developed areas this soil is used mainly for housing developments. ]7 B. WATER RESOURCES Groundwater principal water resource of concern in an area such as Long Island that has been £1assif]ed by the EPA as being fully dependent upon a sole. or single, source for its potable ~ater supply. This designation reinforces the in-place planning criteria and monitoring activities that are utilized to ensure that the groundwater not be contaminated by either point- or non-point sources of pollution. The concern is even more critical in the Town of Southold for, unlike many other areas of Long Island. potable water supply is not available here from both the Glacial and Magothy aquifers. Mater underlying Southo]d within the Magothy formation is generally too saline for potable use. Sands and gravel of the particular soils previously discussed are characterized as highly permeable and yield little run-o~f during precipitation periods_ The upper levels of these, plus the storm deposits, containing fresh water are the primary source of ground water w~thin the Town of Southold. Based upon a topographical analysis of the parcel proposed ]8 for rezonlng and development, it can be assumed that the water table generally l~es some twenty (20) to forty (40) feet beneath th~s 18.021 Acre tract, with an average depth of the water table approximately thirty (30) feet. A test well installed in January 1986 on the Northern end of the site showed the depth of the groundwater of thirty-three (~3> feet. Surface Water Not Applicable b. Not Applicable c_ The patterns for surface drainage are well established and occur generally from Northwest to Southeast, the terminus of which is the entrance to Jockey Creek. However, because of the high permeability of the soil (see above reference to the geology) very little surface run-off occurs, except during the winter months with frozen surface soil conditions. (See Figure 1) 19 Because o¢ the elevations present on the parcel proposed Cot rezoning and development, none o¢ ~t lies w~th~n the are~ designated as ¢lood hazards by Emergency Management Agency. there are no designated wetlands immediately adlacent the Federal addition, to the sublect parcel. C. AIR RESOURCES Not Applicable TERRESTRIAL AND AQUATIC ECOLOGY Vegetation The parcel proposed for rezoning and development is considered abandoned farm land and is characterized by a limited amount of secondary vegetation that has begun to reclaim an area of early agriculture crop use_ Host o¢ this area is brush type and is young and sparce throughout most of the site. Native grasses predominate and provide ground cover throughout the entire parcel_ The specific inventory of vegetative species in contained in Appendix No. 5. Adjacent residential properties typically have landscaped ]awns, plante, planted shrubbery. and a variety of common trees such as maple 2O and oaks. A portion of the Southeast part of the parcel contains the remains of an apple orchard which, from the condition of the trees, has not been in production for some time. Fish, Shellfish and Wildlife Animal and bird life occupying the site are )argely those species associated with near- residential and open field conditions.

TRANSPORTATION Transportation Services The principal transportation arteries servicing the North Fork of Lomg Island are Middle or North Road (County Road 48) and Main Road (New York State Route 25>_ Route 29, an East-West roadway, is a two-lane improved roadway passing through the hamlet centers of the North Fork, including Mattituck, Cutchogue and Southold within the Town of Southold, and the Village o~ Greenport_ Riddle, or North Road, (County Road 48), also an East-West artery, runs along the northern section of the North Fork_ County Road 48 is a four-lane roadway from Rattituck to Southold and a two- lane roadway from Southold to Creenport Ackerly Pond Lane serves a North-South 23 connector between State Route 2~ and County Route 48. At the request of the Planning Board the prolect road layout ~s such that. when future development occurs to the West, then there wll I be a street connection from the prolect s~te to Ackerly Pond Lane. As initially there will only be one (il me~ns of ingress and egress from the project site, and with the proposed thirty-six (36) dwelling units, concern was expressed about the impact upon the heavily travelled Route 2~, especially during the summer months_ Accordingly, there has been a comprehensive traffic study accomplished on thie, and is contained as Appendix No_ 0. 2. Public Tranepo~tation Othe~ modes of transportation to the North Fork include ferry, train, bus and air service. Direct access to the South Fork of Long Island by ~ay of Shelter Island ~s available on a regular b~s~s from Greenport via the North Ferry Company. Inc. and the South Ferry. In ~ddition. the Cross Sound Ferry. located some nine (9) miles East of 24 Greenport, provides a direct route to New England for automobiles, trucks and walk-on to two <2) trains eastbound and two (2) trains westbound per day, with more frequent bus- train service. Sunrise Coach Lines, Inc. provides direct bus service from Greenport to New York City three (3) round-trips per day. Kennedy International Airport is located eighty-slx (86) miles West OF Southold, white Long Island's MacArthur Airport and Suffolk County's Airport at Westhmmpton &re, respectively, Forty-four (44) and twenty-six (26) mites distant_ The proposed parcel For rezoning and redevelopment has one hundred (lO0> Feet Frontage on Route 2~. 2~ ~ Pedeetrian Environment Presently an e×lsting sidewalk crosses the existing and proposed entrance to the prolect site. Dbservations of pedeetrlan traffic indicate that the sidewalk is only tightty used, probably primarily because o¢ the school being on the opposite side of the street. resulting in more pedestrian traffic on the East side of the road than on the Mest eide, where the prolect is located. 4_ Other Not Applicable LAND USE AND ZONING ]. Existing Land Use And Zoning The 18.021 Acre parcel proposed for development is a tract of vacant land previously farmed, but not in the last years based on information available_ agricultural use. The The and has been since the cessation borders on its East by land owned by Margueite Young: Douglas Piex and William Crawford; Jane &nd Thomas Franks; Thomas Franke; and Marion King: on its South by Route 29 and land owned by Flower Hill Building Corporation; and Anita Burnett: on its West by property owned by Ann Oilier Hemblo and Thomas E_ Hemblo= and on its North by property owned by Russell and ]can Mann. In close proximity to the East of the proposed development are Griswold Street, Glover Street, Terry Court, and Tuckers Lane, which are developed by single family detatched homes on individual lots, and located near subiect parcel. The average density in this development is two (2) to three (}) un~ts per ~cre. In close proximity to the South is residential development along Route 29_ These older house units are located on lots that 27 vary In size from il ,600 square feet [o ~6,000 square feet. The sublect parcel is currently zoned A-AD (Residential and Agru£ultural Dlstr~ct). Under this zoning taxed dwelling Is ].84 Acres, which classification a one-family permitted on a lot, with a of 80.000 square feet, or classification is generally referred to as two (2) Acre zoning. Under the proposed Master Plan, certain parcels located immediately adiacent to the hamlets would be considered for razon]ng to Hamlet Density and/or AHD Affordable Housing. The recently established Affordable Housing District is the result of the amendment of Chapter 100 (Zoning) of the Code of the Town of Southold to provide a new Article MA for Affordable Houeing Districts.

Educational Facilities. The proposed development lies within Southold Union Free School District No. }. The District operates an elementary school (Grades 1, 2, and )> located on Peconic Lane, Peconic and elementary, iunior high, and high school located on Oakla~n Avenue, within the hamlet area of the Town of Southold. and immediately across the street from subiect parcel. Total 1988-1989 enrollment in grades 1 la was 722. according to data provided by the Superintendent of Schools (see Appendix No. 6). far short of the stated capacity of 1.I00 students as reported by the New York State Department of Education. An annual decline in pupil enrollment has been recorded in each of the past ten (10) school years, except for years 19B6-87 and 1987-BB. with the enrollment ?lgures reported by the enrollment figures reported by the District for 198B cont&tned in Appendix No. 6. The School D~str:ct has. thus, expermenced an enrollment dec]:ne of about nmneteenb percent (19~> during the past decade. The 1987-]988 taxable assessed valuation within Southold Unior Free District for school purposes mas $24,669,986.00. The total cost per pupm ] . including buidling, maintenance.. and administrative costs, much of which is fixed and beyond direct pupil costs, was $6.64].00 during )987-1988. Police Protection.

The total Millage water plant capacity is calculated at ~.0 mgd per day. In addition, the Village o[ Greenport is under mandate from the SuPfolk County Department o¢ Health Services to Add An Addttion 1 mgd water supply capability during the year 1988-1989. The Village of Greenport has plans And work underway to increase the pumping tncludlng the development of addittonal wells that will increase the system's capabllzty far :n excess of the proposed development's needs, so as not only to supply the development with it's required water supply, but also to :ncrease the reserve pot the Village of Greenport's potable water system. There is also a degree quality problems <narrates and chlorides) at certain wells. Additional water treatment. plus the establishment of new welts is in process to improve both the quality and quantity of the water system so as to continually meet New York State Water Quality Standards. and provide the Additmonal quantity required for the franchise area_ See Appendix No. 2 Pot proposed solution of water supply for this project.

Implementation of the Level III is recommended, with the report stating: " .... adequate supply exists in Zones 3 and 4 to meet Greenport's needs." The Village of Greenport Mater Department regulations were recently amended to provide preferential considerations for water hook-up outside of the Incorporated Village to m~ior sub-divisions which are categorized as "Self Sustained". and which are defined as "any sub- division, development, or facility which provides ~ater equal to or in excess of prolected demand". (See Appendix No_ In order to estimate the total quantity of groundwater that may be withdrawn from larger capacity public supply wells from each water supply zone, water budget areas were delineated. Substantial amounts of groundwater are available outside of the budget areas but, to avoid saltwater intrusion, can only be withdrawn by small, domestic capacity well s. In zones l and 2, the budget areas were defined as those locations where the groundwater level is 5 feet or more above sea level. In zones 3, 4 and 5, the availability of groun~dwater is more limited, so the budget area boundary was defined as the 2-foot groundwater con- tour. A total of approximately 41.2 mgd of fresh groundwater is available from the budget areas. An additional 10 to 20 mgd is available for domestic wells outside the budget areas. The results of the water budget analysis, by zone, are shown below in Table l-1, which also includes consumptive use projections for the year 2000. Conclusion. Sufficient fresh groundwater is available to satisfy the neeas or the overall planning area. However. critical water supply conditions exist in Zone 5 (Orient) where projected requirenents are approximately equal to available supply. Groundwater supply condi- tions in Zone 4 (Greenport/Southold) are also critical although there is some e~tra available supply (o.g mgd available versus 0.63 mgd re- quired).

(See Appendix No. 0.) B. LAND USE AND ZONING There will be a significant change and in the zon;ng. vacant agricultural (Z) units per acre, in the land use The land use will go From to a reeldentia] density o¢ two and the zoning will change From Residential Agricultural to Affordable Housing District (AND). Once the land use change has taken place. It will not be practical or economically possible to revert it back to agricultural use. ~6 C. COMMUNITY SERVICE The only Community Service ~tem that may be effected either mdver, sely or beneficimlly by proposed action is publ lc water supply. See Human Resources IV, C - 8 above. the Public Wate~ Supply - The only community service that is determined to be potentially adversely impacted by the proposed ac[ion is in regard to public wate~ supply_ As p~evJouely indicated, the Village of Greenport, wh:ch services this franchise area, has available to them an estimated ).0 million gallons pe~ day. This project will add an average of ]].880 gallons pe~ day. with a peak o~ ~[.400 gallons pe~ day to this already taxed ~esou~ce_ The Village of Greenpo~t, however. has specific proposals and plans that not only resolves the project's ~ater supply, but potentially makes avaiIabJe wate~ supplies many times Jn excess of the project requirements.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING The proficing of eighteen <lB) afford&hie housing, while minimum, as to the Town's project needs (IR) is signlfcant as one of the Town's e&rJy efforts. ~B VI. MITIGATION MEASURES TO MINIMIZE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT NATURAL RESOURCES The natural items addressed and measures are to be accomplished o Geology o Terrestral and Aquatic Ecology o Agricultural Resources for which mitigation include: A. GEOLOGY Ail topsoil material is to be stockpiled during the construction and used for the restoration and landscaping around the new housing units_ In add:lion, every reasonable effort will be made to preserve in place the natural growth not only between housing units but ~n the designated open area will The open space designated at the drainage be maintained as near as possible with growth so as to prevent during the construction plantings of shrubs and street its present natural erosion, especially period. Additional trees ~lll also help preserve the topsoil. Also during the construction period the contractor will be required to surface the streets as soon as grading and compacting IS complete so as to preclude eros]on in the designated street areas. 49 WATER RESOURCES Ground Water contamination include the Following: a. A site construction restriction that allows no in-ground oil fuel storage tanks. This action has been previously supported and publically agreed to by the Southold Town Planning Board. Historically it has been proven that the indiscriminate application of lawn furtl lizers can, and will, result in the contamination of groundwater, particularly by increased nitrogen levels. It is therefore important that mitigation measures in the form of restrictiofs to limit the application o¢ such lawn fertilizers in accordance ~tth practices that will insure the use o¢ these nutrients by plant growth and not allow them to be applied to the e×tent that they will percolate into the groundwater recharge zone_ Covenants and restrictions are being prepared that each owner and occupant o¢ the housing units wi 11 be required to s)gn and comply with. In addition to this, periodic monitoring of nitrate levels w~l I be per{ormed. Since the proposed change o¢ zone and the development wit] be uti t]ztng public water supply, there is little substantial impact to the ground water from pumping or other methods of withdrawal expected to occur as the result o? this proposed deve]opment. The development will, however, be expected to use potable available water resources based on 100 gallons per capita per day. Based on the persons per drawing ratio of ~.} within the family type residential units proposed, a year round water use of ~}0 gallons per d~el]ing unit per day is reasonable, or for a total of )6 units o¢ 1],880 gallons per day. 2. Surface Water Historically, the collection and direct discharge of street drainage into an aquifer has been a potential source of ground water contamination. Therefore, to eliminate or reduce this potential contamination in the ground water recharge zones From road and street run-off, the storm drainage design has incorporated into it continuous sand recharge swales on eiLher s~de of all streets. This design will provide mn increased ability to filter and distribute, and as a resu]t enhance the qual ~ty of the grounO water percolating into the recharge zone, as compared to a ma]or storm drain collection system with point recharge.

The flora and fauna present on the subject parcel is typical of residential areae and their immediate periphery. It is expected that similar populations will be returned, by man and nature, to the development parcel as it matures as a residential community_ A significant mitigation measure to the terrestrial ecology of the site will be preservation of open space with maintenance of the original type ground cover which eervee as a habitat for animal, bird life, and native type AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES There is no known mitigation that is considered to reduce the impact of the agricultural resources. On th)s particuJar site. the land is already out farm type production and has been since i982. and as it has not been zoned strictly agricultural, or placed in the Farmland Preservation Program. nor is being presently used For agriculture by the Owner, and therefore there Js no ~ndlcated attempt of returning it to agricultural productzon. It should be realized, however, by ali planners and reviewers that once an agricultural resource is changed from farmland to residential, then it ~s forever lost for the agricultura! use HUMAN RESOURCES The human resources addressed for which m~tigation measures are to be accomplished include: o Transportation o Land Use and Zoning o Community Services o Cultural Resources. A. TRANSPORTATION The proposed project will not create significant adverse impact on traffic conditions within or along the major route serving Southold, specifically State Route 2,5 (See Appendix No. and can readily accommodate the addittonal traffic f]o~ generated. A prolect specific traffic analysis has been accomplished, the summary of which states: .54 "Our study and analysis have concluded that the construction o¢ the proposed development will have minimal traffic Impact on Route 2} and the adjacent roadways in the immediate area of the proposed development. "The locat:on and design of the access point on Route Z} will provide the traffic service required with minimal disruption to traffic on Route 2} The access driveway has been designated with separate right turn cod separate ~eft to~n exit lanes so that congestion and delays will be reduced along the exit roadway. "There are sufficient ava] lable gaps on Route Z} to accommodate the safe ingress and egress of vehicles that will be generated by the proposed development. As a result, there is sufficient capacity on Route Z5 to accommodate this additional site-generated traffic without creating a traffic operational problem." The detailed traffic study is contained in Appendix No. 8. Even though the proposed rezone and development project wJlJ not create a significant adverse impact on traffic conditions on Route Z} as per the enclosed traffic study (See Appendix No. 8) it ie planned to provide property to connect with additional methods o¢ the site to adjacent Ackerley Pond Lane. The Planning Board has indicated during their Initial review and Scopin9 Session that any devetopment to the West of this proposed development will be required to match up with the present dead-end street so as to allow traffic connections from the site to County Road 48 via Ackerly Pond Lane. which will substantially reduce entrance and exit on New York State Route 25. LAND USE AND ZONING There is very little mltlgat ton measures that can be taken when you are changing a land use from agricultural to res:dent~al, and the change of zoning From Agricultural/Residential to h~gher density residential. The most logical and pract~£al measure Is to develop the parce! to be consistent with the residential character o¢ the adjacent property to the East and South, and also to lay out the proposed development which permit the installation of suitable res~dentia] infrastructure, which includes municipa] water and proper]y developed local streets that will provide a ~el] planned residential type environment. Included in this wou]d be the landscaping and plantings, especially street trees, and other related types o¢ landscaping that would transform the developed site into a pleasing visual impact. C. COMMUNITY SERVICES 8. Public Water Supply As indicated in Sect ton V, the Vi I lace of Greenport has available [o them an estimated }.0 million gallons of water pep day. This project will require 1],BB0 gallons average per day, or only appro×lmately 0.6~ to 1 .Z~ o¢ the projected oval table prolectlon of the additional water supply to be made available in the near future. To preserve the p~eeent good quality of the on- site water and prevent contamination by nitrates, part of the mitigating action is to require all new owners to limit thetr lawn fertilizer application as per deen covenants and restrictions and have septic tanks pumped as recommended by the Suffolk County Bepartment of Health Services, and as required by the Town of Southold's Wastewater District requlremer~ts (see Town Board Resolution dated February l~, 1983) on a periodic basis. These proposed mitigated type actions will provide further ~7 Other Community Service As tt has been determtned that the proposed rezon]ng and development wi 11 not provtde Any mitigation act]on for these are required.

ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS THAT CANNOT BE AVOIDEO IF THE PRO3ECT IS IMPLEMENTED loss of potentia! vehicle trips. Sections IV. V, anO effect that will of mitigation measures will be the agricultural lands and the increased As regard to the loss of the land to agricultural production, there is no known mitigation measure that can lessen this impact. As previously stated, once this is removed from potentl&l productions and changed to residential development that resource will no longer be av&i]abie_ Based on the traffic study conducted, It ~as determined that there will not be any adverse impact to area roads. It is recognized that any increase in traffic could be considered an adverse environment&I impact however, and cannt be totally mitigated_ As previously discussed and stated, the layout o¢ the development provides a future street connection from the site through the adlacent property to the Hest, with planned future connection to Ackerty Pond Lane and County Ro~d 48. VIII. ALTERNATIVES ALTERNATIVE DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGIES ] Site Layout different density than that is proposed to ~ezoning to AHD, then there is a ]~mJted amount of alternative site layouts that could be accomplished. One of the principal ones that has been under consideration and discussion is the switching of the aF¢ordabie lot section in the Front to the town house section in the rear. Careful ~eview of the alternate sites layouts do not indicate any significant environmental impact as to the switching of the two (2) designated areaa. Either one would be acceptable and would meet the requirements of the project ~or affordable housing. 2_ Orientation So as to prevent a degree a sameness and to promote individual characterizations of the individual residences, the deveJoper plans to poslt~on and locate both the town house units on their respective lots with varying degrees 6O o¢ diOferences Jo posit~on and setback requirements_ Also. the shape of the affordable housing Jots has also been to prevent th~s same potent~a! degree The site layout and orientation has already taken maximum advantage of the s~ te slopes and both of these_ ALTERNATIVE SITES Not applicable. C. ALTERNATIVE SIZE There Js no reasonable alternative to increasing or decreasing the proposed devetopment of this site for the proposed use of affordable housing. Increasing the lot size would ~ncrease the cost of immediately result ~n a price the affordable housing maximum cost the Town of Southold_ such lots, and ~ncrease above as set by Decreasing the lot stze would necessitate compliance with Health Department regulations regarding con~un[ty water and sewer systems. The 6I most practica! method o{ accomplishing this woul~ be to ~nstal I a package type sewage treatment plant similar to that recently installed fop the Shelter Island Heights Property Owners Corporation A treatment plant at this location would, however, require an on-site recharge system and involve both Suffolk County Department of Health Services and New York StaLe Department of Environmental Conservation approvals_ With the above in mind, it does not appear economically ?easible to pursue this alternative at this time. This increased density also would not be in character w~th the surrounding residential character. It has already been established by the number of applicants that wish to be considered for the residential units in this Affordable Housing District, that there already exists a market demand, and co~unlty needs in excess o¢ what is proposed. (See Appendix No_ 4.) 62 ALTERNATIVE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATING SCHEDULING There are no known facts at the present that suggest that alternative schedul ~ng. for example a delay In action on the requested rezon]ng, or the subsequent development of the parcel, would in any way provide for additional m~tlgatlon o£ any environmental impacts foreseen, it Is anticipated that the construction on the individual affordable housing lots will be at the schedule and discression of the new Owners, and that for economic and effJcJenoy reasons, the construction o¢ the town houses would be based on a schedule that would insure their efficient accompl,shment and a reasonable of time. E. ALTERNATIVE LAND USE The proposed site of the Affordable Housing Development is suitable for a variety of sues include the following; to o Agriculture o Commerical or o Other types of of density. industrial facilities housing with varying degrees This site was formerly farmland, and w~th cie&ring could be returned to th~s use. An ~nform~l check of local residents has lndzcated that th~s area hms not been farmed for over seven (7) years. Returning this to agricu]turml product:on, with the increased use of fertilizer, etc_, has a potential of contaminating the groundwater with nutrients such as nitrogen, Because of the res~dentia! nature o¢ the surrounding area, the use of this site for commerica] and industrial activities is not felt to be appropriate, It would be expected to meet with local resistance and be considered ~avorable by the Southold Town Planning Board. 64 F_ NO ACTION instance would be for the Town Board's reject:on of the Change of Zone and the Planning Board's failure to approve this site for ~ffordable housing un:ts_ It Is believed that such a failure to accomplish this frustrate the efforts of the Owner, Mr. Isaac Saidmehr, to undertake the development of this particular site to include af?ordable housing lots that will assist in helping ?ill the ex~sting demand for Moderate Income housing. The end result to this no action alternative it wou)d be expected that the applicant would withdraw his request for rezone and the property would continue to be in the two (2) Ac~e zoning_ This would mean that the plans for affordable housing would be discontinued for this particular site. As previously discussed there are no significant environmental impacts pertaining to this proposed action, that would be avoided if the Town Board and the Town Planning were to pursue IX_ IRREVERSIBLE AND IRRETRIEVABLE COMMITTMENT OF RESOURCES The proposed development of the parcel w~ll irreversibly ~nd irretrievably commit the ¢ollow~ng resources to the intended prolect: An ]8.0£l Acre tract o¢ non-productive and unused land wi I l bear development; (2) Money w~ll be Pot ~nfrastructure installation and maintenance and ~ndividual c~pital investments will be made ~n residential premises; and Energy reeourses will be committed to construction activity and to long-term uses for heating, cooltng and related functions. As previously discussed in this DEIS: (1) The water provided by the Village of Greenport will result in increased annual pumpage, thus lessening the water available for other development; (2) At lease some of the very limited existing vegetation on portions o¢ this eite will be removed, though likely to be replaced with comparable, or improved, native, non-endangered species; and Minor loss o¢ residual capacity will be experienced in existing streete ~nd highwaye. 66 commitmer~t of resources lder, tt f~ed that would suggest that the proposed prelect be tee×am;nd or that the proposed commitmef~t would be the sub-dividing o£ this property for individual affordable housing lots and the constructIon of town house type housing un,ts that would negate the future availability of this property to be used for agriculture or fo~ two (2) Acre lot~ for detached housing. 67 X. GROWTH INDUCING ASPECTS A. POLUPATZON expected to result in a reeiden{ population of approximately one hundred twenty-six (JZ6) people. This cannot be directly converted, however, into increased population as Jt is expected that the maiority o¢ the occupants (eligible pa~t~£ipAnts) will be young working families that wJJl relocate From other rentals in other parts of the Town, especially from the Hamlet oS Southold. (See Housing Demographics in Append]× No. 4.)

EFFECTS ON THE USE AND CONSERVATION OF ENERGY RESOURCES PROPOSED ENERGY SOURCES AND ALTERNATIVES Not Applicable. B. ANTICIPATED SHORT-TERM/LONG-TERM LEVELS OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION Not Applicable INDIRECT EFFECTS ON ENERGY CONSUMPTION It is not anticipated that there will be any significant indirect effects on energy consumption. The prolect does not have an impact on public transportation methods, and the increased levels of traffic to the proposed prolect would be expected to occur at another s~te if this proiect was not approved and brought to fruition.

IMPACT OH LAND Construction will continue for more than one year and the impact of construction should be controlled to reduce the noise from adjoining homes which are located closed to the site. 2. IMPACT ON GROUNDWATER The Village of Greenport has not granted a contract for water to the proposal and has indicated that it would grant approval for a contract agreement in return for a well site or money in lieu of. To date this has not been resolved. If a well site is to be on site, the impact within the zone of concentration on the quality of the recharge to groundwater is also to be considered. An off site well should be found in an area tha~ is agreeable to the Village. Approval from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services for water supply and sewage disposal must also be obtained. 3. IMPACT ON PLANTS AND ANIMALS It is possible that this proposal will have an impact on plants and animals; therefore, an inventory prepared by a competent authority should be made. 4. IMPACT ON AGRICULTURAL LAND RESOURCES This proposal would effectively eliminate an agricultural land greater than 10 acres. This site was formerly an orchard and hasn't been used as such recently, yet it was a productive one. 5. IMPACT O~] AESTHETIC RESOURCES This proposal will eliminate a current vista of open land and will have an impact on aesthetic resources. The development will create a sharp contrast to current surrounding land use patterns of open land. 6. IMPACT ON HISTORIC AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES This proposal may have an impact on archaeological resources and an assessment of the site should be made by a competent authority. 7. IMPACT ON GROWTH AND CHARACTER OF COMMUNITY OR NEIGHBORHOOD This project will create a density of four times the 2-acre requirement currently allowed on the site. It is also changing the character of the neighborhood since there will be multipie dwellings in an area of otherwise single-family dwellings. This project will create an important precedent for future projects of this type particularly under the Affordable Housing District. The impact and availability o~ large amounts of surrounding land which is farmed or vacant may influence the owners of those sites to apply for the same density. 8. IMPACT ON TRAFFIC This is a significant impact with only one ingress/one egress to the site. With 36 dwelling units proposed and 72 cars (2 each) as a result of the action, based on standard trip generation rates published by the Institute of Traffic Engineers, the annual average humber of vehicular trips generated per day would be 360. This is far above the projected 271 per week as stated in the Part I. It should also be noted that the access is proposed for Main Road (SR 25) which is a very heavily traveled road, especially during the summer months since there are only two major east/west roads in the Town. Future connections are indicated for. roadways, however, it is not known when or if these properties may come in for development. SZEPATOWSKI ASSOCIATES INC.

(Not forth coming as of 19 Apr 88 therefore it is assumed on-site water will be necessary). 4) The EIS shall contain a section on how the development will comply with the zoning ordinance affordable housing provisions. cc: Valerie Scopaz, Town Planner Merlon Wiggin, Peconic Engineering SoLrrt 617.21 Appendix D State Environmental Quality Review Scoping Checklist SEQR The following checklist of topics is intended as a starting point for developing a detailed scope for a project-specific Draft Environmental Impact Statement_ Typically, no one project will require a discussion of all the topic areas contained in this document. Through the scoping process, the list of topics should be refined to reflect issues unique to the proposed project. Topic areas may be de- leted, added or elaborated upon, to arrive at the final scoping document. The purpose of the checklist format is to iden- tify the basic topic areas of the Draft ElS. This is accomplished by reviewing the list and placing a check in the box located to the left of these topics which should be discussed. The model scoping checklist can also be used as a worksheet. including comments, suggestions and identifica- tion of the particular example(s) that are relevant to a detailed discussion of the topic or issue that has been checked_ Conversely. those topics which are not checked, are issues not associated with the project and may be eliminated from discussion in /be Draft ElS. The next step is to expand the list to include or elaborate on those topics unique to the pro- posed project. A blank sheet is included at the end of the checklist for such additional information. The scoping process involves several steps in addition to compiling a list of topics. Scoping also includes discussions on the quantity and quality of informaton required and the methods of obtain- ing that data. NOTE: This check list was designed to be used in conjunction with the section on scoping contained in SEQR Guideline-Draft and Final EIS's. It is also important to emphasize that this checklist should serve only as a model to assist in the scoping of a Draft ElS. It should not be used as a substitute for actively scoping Draft ElS for a specific project. ~.~ Cover Sheet All EIS's (Draft or Final) shall begin with a cover sheet that includes: A.

Dear Sirs: This office represents the developer of "Southold Villas", a 36 unit project seeking to obtain water service from the Village of Greenport. Our client's application has met with your agreement to consider our pa[ticipation in the construction of a new well at Plant No. 7 (as per enclosed 5/18/88 letter of J. Monsell). We would like to see this matter proceed as expeditiously as possible and, therefore, respectfully request to be scheduled for a meeting with the Village Board as soon as possible. We would appreciate your early advice. Sincerely, Rudolph R. Bruer RHB/df Eric. cc: Isaac Saidmehr Merlon E. Wiggin, Peconic Associates/ James C. McMahon, Southold Community Development James I.

Dear Mr. Emilita, We have been requested to respond to you concerning our capability of supplying pub]lc water to an affordable housing project of 36 units in the Southo]d hamlet area, This project is called Southo]d ~illas. The Village of Greenport has a Policy Statement concerning on site and off site wells. Th~s policy was adopted February 21, 1986. We have been offered 2 times the upfront money which would be (36 x 2570) = $92,520 x 2 - $185,040 instead of a well. Both the Utility Committee and the Village Board of Trustees are studying the proposal in hopes of coming to a speedy conclusion. We have been presented with an average daily Icad of 1],880 ga]ions per day. This may cause a peak of 29,700 gallons. We need a site plan so we can work on water main size, hydrant locations, and point or points of connection. We have at~ached a copy of the Villages - Water Department Policy for your record. We can assure you we are working on this application as fast as reasonable to determine our capability to serve. If I can be of further service, please contact me. dIM:lkm Znc. ¢0: James I.

A discussion was held concerning the proposed Water Department policy for water saving devices. Trustee Kapell said he thought that It was a good- approach. He asked If the new type of fixtures would be more expensive, and Mrs. Cooper said they would not be. She stressed that In the State of New York devices that did not meet strict specifications were not allowed. If other than those devices are sold and installed, that would be done Illegally. She added that the DEC policed those regulations. Also, the Village had a right to refuse hook-ups Inside or outside the Village if developers did not meet those specifications, which would be Included In the Vl]lage Rules & Regulatior)s. Trustee LiebIeln said a copy should be sent to the Southold Town. A motion was made by Trustee Cooper, seconded by Trustee Ll'ebIein and car-. rled to adopt a Resolution enabling the Water Department policy concerning water saving devices to be adopted as Rules and Regulations of the Water Department. "~ RESOLUTION WHEREAS the Village of Greenport Water Department should be desirous of fostering as much Water conservation as Is possible by Its present and future customers, and WHEREAS many new development projects and Individual constructions are projected In the Vittage and in our service area franchise in the 'Yuture, and WHEREAS the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has established a list of water-saving devices, such as toilets, shower heads, etc., and that these new devices have been projected to reduce tile average household water use by up to one-half and will reduce the amount of waste water flowing to the sewer plant, and WHEREAS the Installation of these devices !n new constrt~ct!on ~!I! not be prohlbttorlly expensive, therefore ~ BE 1T RESOLVE~ THAT. Regular Meeting February 21, 1986 Trustee Liebllen, cont.: Policy Statement had been drawn up and Trustee Lieblein proceeded to read as follows: RE'; PROPOSED POLICY STATEHENT Applications ro~ Inclusion in Village of Greenport Water System POLICY STATEMENT: To distinguish applicants requesting hook-up Into the Breen- port WaLer System who lie outside Village boundaries, and who are not minor .subdivisions (4 or less), Into two categories. Category A - System Sustained Category B Self Sustained (definitions to follow) PURPOSE - To create Incentives for applicants requesting hook-up Into Greeen- por-'~-Lr-~-~er System to provide water Into that system that is equal or in excess of their projected demand. JUSTIFICATION - Governmental bodies have historically enticed private enter- prises ln~o co-operatively solving shared problems. MECHANISMS & DEFiNITiONS A) Category A - B) Category B - Mechanism BI1) System Sustained - Any applicant not defined by'B(1) or ~(2J and who Is dependent on the Greenport Water System to provide their water. Any applicant who provides water capacity equal or In excess of projected demand. Self Sustained mechanisms by which an applicant may 'fall Into Self Sustained categocy. - Onslte Program - Applicant Is able to demonstrate to s'a~lsfactlon of Village Board, under criteria set by Superintendent of Utilities, Village Board and consulting Engineers. for quantity and quality, on onstte capacity to provide water that equals or exceeds projected use of the project. Mechanism 8(2) - Transfer of Water Resource Program - Any app]lcant who Is not able to provide onsite production, may, under this program, develop a well. off-site, or storage facility in accordance with criteria set by Vlllaoe Board. Sunmr- Village oF Greenport Board of Trustees Regular Meeting February 21, 1986 Proposed Policy Statement, cont.: A) Greenport In obtaining quantity and quality needed to serve its present franchise. B) Applicant (Self-Sustained) - Since an applicant falling into the Self-Sustained Category will be considered separate and aside from those described as System Sustained, this may expedite hookup Into the system. c) Applicants (System Sustained) - The hope Is that there will be provided through the Self-Sustained mechanism an overall excess which, combined with Greenport Water System's efforts to seek new wells, will facilitate faster Inclusion of system sustained described applicants into the Greenport dater System. Mayor Hubbard asked If there were any questions about the Policy State- ment. Atty. Munzel remarked that such a Policy Statement would only be effective if It were made parttand parcel of the Rules and Regulations of the Village of Greenport. After a discussion Atty. Munzel said they would have to study the rules carefully, and adopt certain Rules and Regulations. Trustee Lleblein asked If the wording of the Pollcy Statements was Improper, and It was agreed that the~Suffolk Co. Dept. of Health should be consulted also. After discussion, Trustee Kapell said that the Draft Policy Statement was the sort of thing that should be discussed with Mr. Mctendon of H2M. A motion was made by Trustee Lleblein, seconded by Trustee Cooper to have the Vtllage Board of. Trustees:',aUopt the "Proposed Policy Statement" as reviewed that evening.

It detailed attention of not A only the developers, but Town and Village officials_ review o¢ this problem area includes the following assumptions of fact= CONNECTION TO PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY IS REQUIRED - To have the the include a public water supply_ Difficulties obtaining approval, constructing, operating, maintaining a site specific water supply are d]{ficult and economically impractical. projects, affordable density must be increased to point where Health Department requ)rements will and 2_ CONNECTION TO THE VILLAGE OF GREENPORT'S SYSTEM IS THE ONLY LOGICAL SOLUTION AT PRESENT - Greenport presently has public water mains along road rights-o?-way, both to the North and South of the project site. Also, the site is totally within the Village of Greenport franchise area for munlcipa] water. 3. GREENPORT TEMPORARILY IS NOT IN A POSITION AT PRESENT TO SUPPLY WATER TO THIS PROJECT Greenport ~s under their quality and quantity of available water supply before new protects of this type can be connected. 4. IMPROVEMENTS TO GREENPORT'S SYSTEM. AND ESPECIALLY INCREASED PUMPING CAPABILITY. MUST OCCUR OR ASSURANCES THAT THEY WILL OCCUR BEFORE AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECTS CAN BE APPROVED - The Village o{ Greenport is doing specific planning and initiating actions for adding to their water supply capability. These include the identification and potential purchase of new well sites as ~ell as initiating a bond act to raise monies for the development of hooK-up of new well systems. Funds have also been identified and voted on to improve water quality at problem wells. THE AVERAGE DAILY WATER REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT IS I].Ba0 GALLONS PER DAY - Using a multiplier of 2.~. the peak requirement for the pro)ect site would be Z9,700 gallson per day. SOLUTION Considerable effort and discussion went into the developzng of the best and most v~able solution Lo supply water to th~s affordable housing proiect. Of the possible scenarios four (4) were explored in detail and Include the followin9: 1. DEVELOP AN ON-SITE WELL THAT WOULD ONLY SUPPLY THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT. The e×pectatlon of approval from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, because o~ the proximity of municipal mains and the marginal nitrate levels was highly also mean that the developer would position to not only develop this well, nitrate removal system, but operate requiring the hiring of li£ensed and personnel_ unlikely. It would be placed in a put ~n a it as well, trained operating 2_ DEVELOP THE ON-SITE WELL AND TURN IT OVER TO THE VILLAGE OF GREENPORT. This approach has considerable merit, especially seeing that it would move this proiect near the head of the list, based on the present V~ llage of Greenport policies of water hook-ups. Because of the well's marginal nit,ate levels this well would be <nitrate unlikely. considered costly to develop and to operate removal>, making its acceptance by the V~ll~ge THE DEVELOPER. EITHER ON HIS OWN. OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER DEVELOPERS. OBTAIN OR LEASE A WELL SITE_ Obtain the necessary approvals, and install a well complete with pump station, controls, and emergency after which it would be turned over to the Village of Greenport_ Seeing that this is an affordable housing prolect, from an economic point of view it was not rational to develop a 400,000 to ~00,000 gallons per day well when this Proiect only required 12.000 gallons per day_ Actively pursuing this route could also be contrary to the overall Village's plans for their own courses of action in developing new full production wells. 4. HOOK UP TO THE VILLAGE OF GREENPORT'S MUNICIPAL SYSTEM. The proiect site is totally within the Village of Greenport's water franchise area and, from both ~ logical and legal point of view. the only practical decision would be for this site to be connected to the existing Village municipal water mains. This direction is also the one recommended by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services_ It is realized. however, that the Village of Oreenport ~s under various mandates to increase and improve their water supplies, and that the completion of these efforts could possibly delay actual construction. Discussions with VillAge o¢¢lclals indicate thaL they initiation of bonds for required fundtng, l'herefome, It Is considered that the only logical course of action is %o stay on the Village's list of those requesting connection, and have the project ready {or hook-up as ARTICLE VA AH[} Affordable Housing District .

Box 672 Greenport, New York 11944 On-site inspection and of flora and fauna r r I - r '[ SOUTHOLD VILLAS The subject parcel may be considered as an "old field" with the variation of having the remnants of an apple orchard present in certain areas as well. In addition to the many grasses which dominate, including some or all of the following: fox tail, Setaria, spp.; bluestem, Andropogon, spp.; panic grass, Panicum, spp.; Muhlenbergia, spp.: rye grass, Lolium, spp.; quack grass, Agropyron; spp.; Triodia, spp; fescue, Festuca, spp.; several shrubs and vines are appearing. Blackberry, Rubus allegheniensis is found on the borders of some of the old farm roads. Scattered throughout the fields are bayberry, Myrica pennsyl- vanica; groundsel bush, Baccharis halimifolia; red cedar, Juniperus virginiana. Wildflowers, especially white heath aster, Aster ericoides; goldenrod, Solidago, spp.; blazing star, Liatris, spp.; teasel, Dipsacus sylvestris; ragweed, Ambrosia artemisii- folia; cocklebur, Xanthium strumarium; vulgate; yarrow, Achillea millefolium; minus; dandelion, Taraxacum officinale; tansy, Tanaeetum burdock, Arctium are also abundant. These types of vegetation characterize fields which have until recently (5~ years) undergone cultivation but which are now being re-colonized by native species. These "soft- stem" species are the primary invaders in a long succes- sion which ultimately leads to a climax forest. The many grain species of grasses, plus the dense nature of the cover, make old fields excellent habitat for small mammals (especially rodents) and birds. Productivity is high specially where soil types are (or were) con- dusive to agriculture. No rare or endangered vegetation was observed. The following birds were either observed or expected to be present, as indicated: Red-tailed hawk, Buteo jamaicensis, obs. Killdeer, Charadrius vociferus, exp. Mourning dove, Zenaidura macroura, obs. Barn swallow, Hirundo rustica, obso Red-wing blackbird, Agelaiu$ phoeniceus, obs. Common grackle, Quisculus quiscula, exp. song sparrow, Melospiza melodia, obs. Bobwhite, Colinus virqinianus, exp. House wren, Troglodytes aedon, obs. Common yellowthroat, Geothlypis trichas, exp. American goldfinch, Spinus tristis, exp. Common crow, Corvus brachyrhynchos, obs. Northern mockingbird, Mimus polyglottos, exp. The red-tailed hawk, a New York State "threatened species," was observed circling overhead, apparently in search of food (small rodents). These raptors require two types of habitat, open fields for hunting and woods for rest- ing. Loss of the open field will force the hawk else- where. The other bird species listed are common on Long Island. While they, too, will have to seek similar habitat else- where, they are more adaptable to change, and many will be able to inhabit more developed sites. Several types of small rodents are expected as follows: White-footed mouse, Peromyscus leucopus Meadow vole, Microtus pennsylvanicus Meadow mouse, Microtus chrotorrhinus House mouse, Mus musculus Norwegian brown rat, Rattus norvegicus Cottontail rabbit, S¥1vilagus floridanus The white-tailed deer, Odocoileus virqinianus, may tra- verse the site in search of food. As previously stated, the small mammal population is an important source of food to such predators as the hawks and red fox, Vulpes fulva, should any be present. The rodents also cause damage to crops, gardens, and struc- tures, and must be controlled in some fashion. The lack of any standing water limits the number and diversity of reptiles and amphibians expected to be - 4 - found on-site. The common garter snake, Thamnor)his siritalis, adaptable to most habitats, is a possible resident. The box turtle, Terrapene carolina is also common and likely to be found. In summary, the fields exhibit the primary stages of recolonization. The proposed development will drasti- cally alter the environment and require the resident fauna to relocate to remaining similar habitat if available. Existing flora will be replaced with spe- cies typical of landscaped residential areas. ;ORS Telephone 516 - 765-1937 Sou~ 971 October 11, 1988 Peconic Associates, Inc. One Bootleg Alley P.O.

The Southold Town Board has determined that subject project may have a significant effect on the environment and that a Draft Environmental Impact Statement will be required. We are in the process of preparing the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the subject project for both change of zone and site plan requirements. The project proposes a change of approximately eighteen (18) acres of agricultural residential to affordable housing district to allow for the creation of eighteen {18) single family residential lots and construction of eighteen {18) multiple dwellings in eight (8) buildings. Part of the requirements in the preparation of this Impact Statement is the evaluation of change in taxes and assessment that will occur if this property is developed as proposed. Would you please provide a tabulated evaluation and summary of the assessment and taxes of present versus projected if the property is developed as proposed. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

ASSOCIATION October 16, 1965 Dear Dr. Wiggin: To the best of my knowledge the property identified as Southold Villas, Southold, N.Y., Suffolk Co~ty Tax ~ 1000-?O-01-06 has no more historic and archaeological resources th~n any other property in Southold Town. In all probability there are scattered artifacts occurring on this property as in almost all undeve!o~ed lar~ u~z island. However no one can be sure wh~t lies beneath the grouted without co~plete excavation of said property. No one is gifted with Xray vision to see stone and bone beneath the gro%~nd surface. If the Archaeological Ass'ri. c~n be of help we would gladly sink test holes, or if there is any evidence brought to light of aboriginal occupation we would conduct a dig.

Se~ral personal, on-site field observations were made to observe the traffic movements under various conditions. 2. A physical inventory was made of the adjacent street network. 3. An analysis was umde of the traffic volume data obtained from the New York State Departmmnt of Transportation. 4. An examination was made of the traffic flow ou State Route 25. Also, the available capacity of the surrounding street network was determined. 5. An evaluation was made of the safety factors by reviewing sight dis- tances and available safe gaps in the traffic flow. 6. The availability of police and fire protection services was examined. 7. A trip ~neration analysis was performed to determine the additional traffic attributable to the proposed development of Southold Villas. 8. A directional distribution analysis was made to distribute the site- ~nerated traffic onto the s~ro~ding street network. 9. A trip assignnmut analysis was performed to examine the composite traf- fic volumes, that would result due to the addition of the site-generated traffic to the extst£ng traffic volumes, in order to determine the traf- fic impacts on the surrounding roadways. 10. Capacity analyses were performed at the unsignalized intersection of Route 25 at the proposed access driveway to examine the ability to ac- com~dnte the addition of the site-generated traffic. -7- 11. A review of the access arrangements was made. 12. Conclusions were made of the traffic impact of the development as a re- sult of the data and facts ~thered in this study. -8- EXISTING ROADWAY NETWORK Roadway Descriptions The major highway facility that provides access to the proposed development is New York State Route 25. New York State Route 25 is essentially an east/west route that consists of an undivided highway with one travel lane in each direction and no separate turning lanes. In the vicinity of the site, New Yonk State Route 25 runs in an approximate north/south direction with the pro- posed site being on the west side of Route 25. New York State Route 25 is the only highway facility in close proximity to the site that will be impacted by site-generated traffic. Major Intersections There are no major intersections that are located in the vicinity of the site that will be impacted by the traffic fr~ this site. The site access road will create a u~ intersection on Route 25. Lane config~atlous at the intersection of Route 25 at the site access road will consist of the following: 1. Eastbound Approach on Site Access Road: T~o lanes. 2. Southbound Approach on Route 25: One lane. 3. Northbound Approach on Route 25: One lane. Grades and Sight Distances The grades on Route 25 in the vicinity of the site are essentially flat. Ap- proximately 2,000 feet north of the site there is a sharp horizontal curve to the right. This curve is located a more than sufficient distance from the proposed access site. Thus, excellent sight distamce will be available for trsffic exiting the site. EXISTING TRAFFIC FLOW CONDITIONS Traffic Volumes Available traffic flow information was obtained from the New York State De- pa rt,mnt of Transportation. The available information consisted of machine traffic counts for s coverage count station on Route 25 in the vicinity of the site that comtains hourly volumes. The estimated average annual daily traffic (AADT) volume on Route 25 in 1989 is 9,400 vehicles. An examimatlon of the traffic volume information reveals that the peak weekday traffic volumes occur between the hours of 7:00 to 9:00 AM and 4:00 to 6:00 PM. The peak highway hour on Saturday generally occurs between the hours of 11:00 ~M. to 2:00 P.M. The available traffic volume information is contained in the section of the Appendix entitled "Traffic Volume Counts". Traffic Growth Rate In order to estimate future traffic volumes, the growth rate of traffic was determined using information from the New York State Department of Transportation. Discussions with the State re~al that the current traffic growth rate In eastern Suf~lk County is 2.5 percent per year. Based on the growth rate information from the State and previous discussions with the Town of Sout~ld Planning staff, a conservative growth rate of 3.0 percent per year was selected. -13- Accident Records Information was obtained from the New York State Department of Transportation re~arding all repvrted accidents that have occured in the immediate vicinity of the site over three years from January 1985 to December 1987. A summary of the accident statistics is presented in Table 1, "Accident Summry". D~talls on the accident data are contained in the Appendix under Accident Records. Based on the past accident histories, it is expected that the developmant of South~ld Villas will not lead to an increase in accident rates nor create any traffic hazard. -14- -15- EXISTING EMERGENCY SERVICES The availmbility of police protection amd fire protectioe services in the vicinity of the proposed site ls excellent. The Southold Town Police De- partment covers the ares of the site. At present, the Immediate hamlet of Southold is a sector ~n~to Itself patrolled by this Department. The closest firehouse of the South old Fire Department is located on the north side of Main Road, directly across from Maple Avenue, approximately .75 miles east of the site. Due to the excellent patrol courage of the police precinct and the close proximity of the firehouse, it should be recognized that excellent emergency services are available to service the site of the Southold Villas. -17- SITE TRIP GENERATION ANALYSIS -18- Information on trip generation rates for single family homes and tow~b~uses are contained in the 1987 edition of "Trip Generation", a manual published by the Institute of Trmnsp~rtstion Engineers (ITE). Table 2, "Site-Generated Traffic", presents the number of vehicles expected to enter and e~lt the proposed develop~nt during the weekday A.M. mhd P.M. peak hours and the Saturday peak hour. -19- TRIPS PER TRIPS PER TRIPS PER DEVELOPMENT A.M.

First, the critical gap analyses were performed for the 1991 Build condition with site traffic ~nerated by the development of the Southhold Villas. In addition, the Plmnntng Department of the Town of Southold usually requests that traffic studies include design volumes for five years after the build y~ar and for fifteen years after the build y~ar. Thus, the critical gap analyses were also performed for 1996 (1996 Composite Traffic with The Site) and for the year 2006 (2006 Composite Traffic with The Site). The critical gap analyses were performed in accordance with the methodology set forth in the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual. Sum~mries of the critical gap analyses are contained in Tables A through C in the Appendix under Critical Gap Analyses. The critical gmp analyses for the 1991 Build condition show that there will be adequate gaps in traffic to accommodate all movements in and out of the site, even during peak hours. The gap aualyaes for 1996 also s~w that there will be adequate gaps iu traffic to accom~date all movements in and out of the site. Finally, the gap analyses for the year 2006 also show that there will be adequate gaps in traffic for all movements in and out of the site, even during peak hours in the y~ar 2006. -28- ACCESS EXAMINATION -29- In order to develop an access plan which will cause min/mal interference to the flow of traffic on Route 25, the major access point to the site was de- signed to permit right turns in, right turns out, left turns In, and left In order to minimize future congestion and delays on the exit roadway from the Southold Villas, a separate right turn lane and a separate left turn lane will be provided on the edt roadway. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS Summer Traffic Volumes It is normal practice In the preparattnn of a Traffic Impact Study to adjust the data collected during different times of the year in order to represent an average day. However, In thls project It is recognized that in Seuthold traffic volumes during the sum~r m~nths, particularly on summer weekends, are higher than during the rest of the year. Thus, a "worst case" traffic examination is presented in this Traffic Impact Study that reflects the heavier traffic volumes during the summer. Public Transportation The site of the proposed South~ld Villas ia accessible to the bus services provided by Suffmlk Transit. At present, the S-92 bus provides service to the site. The S-92 bus operates bergen Riv~rhead and Greenport. By utilizing the S-92 bus, several transfers can be made in Riverhesd connecting riders to the rest of the Suffolk Transit system. The S-92 bus passes by the site in a westbotmd direction at 7:10 A.H., 8;05 A.M., 9:10 A.M., 11:15 A.M., 1:20 P.M., 2:20 P.M., and 4:10 P.M. Traveling eastbound, the S-92 bus passes by the site at 9:40 A.M., 12:45 P.M., 1:55 P.M., 3:30 P.M., 4:35 P.M., 5:40 P.M. and 6:35 P.M. The use of the existing bus service by residents of the proposed Southold Villas would help further reduce the traffic impact on the surrounding street and highway network. -32- CONCLUSIONS -33- Our study and analysis have concluded that the construction of the proposed developmmnt wll have minimal traffic impact on Route 25 and the adjacent roadways in the immediate area of the proposed development. Alt N~ugh the development of the homes will add traffic to the adjacent roadway network, the traffic impact will be minimal and the existing highway network will be able to easily accomr~date this additional trafflc. The following points should be recognized: The location and design of the access point on Route 25 will provide the traffic service required with minimal disruption to traffic on Route 25. The access driveway has been designed wtth separate right turn and sepa- rate left turn exit lanes so that congestion and delays will be reduced along the exit roadway. Due to the excellent patrol co~erage of the police department and the close proximity of the fire house, it should be recognized that excellent emr~ucy services are available to service the site of Southold Villas. There are sufficieut a~railable gaps on Route 25 to accommodate the safe ingress and egress of vehicles that will be generated by the proposed de- velopment. As a result, there is sufficieot capacity on Route 25 to ac- commedate this additional site-generated traffic without creating a traf- fic operational ~roblem. The vehicular entrance/exit to the site is clearly visible to traffic on Route 25. Thus, the sight distance in the vicinity of this point is adequate. No nearby adjacent driveways exist on Route 25 that will in- terfere with the operation of the access driveway. The design volumes presented in this Traffic Impact Study reflect the "worst case" conditions due to heavier traffic volumes during the As a result of our examination, based upon traffic engineering comsiderations, it is recommended that the proposed develepnmnt of the Southold Villas be approved. -35- APPENDIX -.36- Critical Gap Analyses Traffic Volumes VEHICLE VOLUME COUNT INTERSECTION TURNING MOVEMENTS LOCATION TUCKER LANE at N.Y.S.

July 20, 1988 Peconic Associates, One Bootley Alley P. O. Box 672 Greenport, NY 11944 ATT; Merlon E. Wiggin Dear Sir: This is in response to your letter dated June 24, 1988. In light of your request for a change of zone for the Southold Villas parcel, we have had to reevaluate our plans for the adjacent piece which Flower Hill Building Co~poration holds. Based on a review of your application and taking into account the nature of our property and the development trends in the Town of Southold, we have decided to file for a similar change of zone (ie, from agricultural to AHD) should the Town approve the Southold villas plan. We believe a change of zone for our parcel is a benefit to the Town for the following reasons: (1) Flower Hill Building's parcel is significantly larger than the Southold Villas project, thus allowing more opportunities for .low income.housing and effective land use (greenbelt, etc.). (2) The Southold Villas parcel shares a long and physically indistinguishable boundary with the Flower Hill Building piece. Any project on the Flower Hill propertys provided it is of a similar nature, could be easily integrated with the Southold Villas property, p~oviding the Town with an unbroken zone district. (3) We believe the Flower Hill Building parcel is ideally suited for development under AHD rules. The terrain is rolling, affording ample opportunities to take advantage of the parcel and minimize any appearance of excess density. (4) The Flower Hill Building parcel has frontage on both the Main Road (SR25) and on Ackerly Pond Lane. Any development would be directed in a manner that would minimize congestion from increased travel through effective planning and use of multiple access ~outes. Peconic AssociaLes, Inc. -2- July 20, 1988 ATT: Merlon E. Wiggin (5) The inclusion of the Flower Hill Building parcel in an AHD district ~ould provide the To~n ~i~h a unifi¢~, clear and distinct affordable housing disLric~ of a convenient size a~d shape, and it would also ensure ~hat enough land would remain available for future cesiden~ of the Town who would otherwise be condemned Lo live ouLside of $outhold.

MuI-phy Part 2--PROJEC. ,~IPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITL; Responsibility ol Lead Agency General Inl'ormation (Read Carefully) · In completing the form the rewewer should be guided by the question: Have my responses and determinations been reasonable! The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst. · Identifying that an impact wdl be potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant. Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in column 2 simply asks that it be looked at further · The Ezamples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State and for most situations But, for any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3. · The impacts of each project, on each site, in each locality, will vary. Therefore. the examples are illustrative and have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question. · The number of examples per question does not indicate the importance ot each question. · In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumlative effects. Instruclions ORead carefully) a. Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact. b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers. c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column I or 2) to indicate the potential size of the impact. If impact threshold equals or exceeds any example provided, check column 2. If impact will occur but threshold is lower than example, check column 1. d. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3. e. If a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by change(s) in the project to a small to moderate impact, also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible. This must be explained in Part 3.

IMPACT ON LAND Construction will continue for more than one year and the impact of construction should be controlled to reduce the noise from adjoining homes which are located closed to the site. 2. IMPACT ON GROUNDWATER The Village of Greenport has not granted a contract for water to the proposal and has indicated that it would grant approval for a contract agreement in return for a well site or money in lieu of. To date this has not been resolved. If a well site is to be on site, the impact within the zone of concentration on the quality of the recharge to groundwater is also to be considered. An off site well should be found in an area that is agreeable to the Village. Approval from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services for water supply and sewage disposal must also be obtained. 3. IMPACT ON PLANTS AND ANIMALS It is possible that this proposal will have an impact on plants and animals; therefore, an inventory prepared by a competent authority should be made. 4. IMPACT ON AGRICULTURAL LAND RESOURCES This proposal would effectively eliminate an agricultural land greater than 10 acres. This site was formerly an orchard and hasn't been used as such recently, yet it was productive one. 5. IMPACT ON AESTHETIC RESOURCES This proposal will eliminate a current vista of open land and will have an impact on aesthetic resources. The development will create a sharp contrast to current surrounding land use patterns of open land. 6. IMPACT ON HISTORIC AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES This proposal may have an impact on archaeological resources and an assessment of the site should be made by a competent authority. 7. IF&PACT ON GROWTH AND CHARACTER OF COMMUNITY OR NEIGHBORHOOD This project will create a density of four times the 2-acre requirement currently allowed on the site. It is also changing the character of the neighborhood since there will be multiple dwellings in an area of otherwise single-family dwellings. This project will create an important precedent for future projects of this type particularly under the Affordable Housing District. The impact and availability of large amounts of surrounding land which ~s farmed or vacant may influence the owners of those sites to apply for the same density. 8. IMPACT ON TRAFFIC This is a significant impact with only one ingress/one egress to the site. With 36 dwelling units proposed and 72 cars (2 each) as a result of the action, based on standard trip generation rates published by the Institute of Traffic Engineers, the annual average number of vehicular trips generated per day would be 360. This is far above the projected 271 per week as stated in the Part I. It should also be noted that the access is proposed for Main Road (SR 25) which is a very heavily traveled road, especially during the summer months since there are only two major east/west roads in the Town. Future connections are indicated for roadways, however, it is not known when or if these properties may come in for development.

Re: Southold Villas Dear Diane: In confirmation of my conversation with you on this date, you advised me that Valerie Scopaz, Southold Town Planner, discussed Southold Villas Inc. with the Planning Board on December 18, 1987, at the Planning Board work session. Ms. Scopaz asked the Board whether they recommend that Southold Villas Inc. submit a plan showing the multiple units along the east of the property, rather than as is presently submitted. I was advised that the Board wishes to wait until the Southold Town Board approves the zone change before they consider any further changes to the plan. In light of the above, Southold Villas Inc. will submit an AHD zone change petition with the previously proposed plan. Very truly yours, Patricia C.

Isaac Saidmehr 97 Crow's Nest Court Manhasset, N.Y. 11030 Agents: Engineer: Merl Wiggins Peconic Associates 1 Bootleg Alley Greenport, N.Y. 11944 Attorney: Patricia C. Moore, Esq. Edson & Bruer, Esqs. Main Road, P.O. Box 1466 Southold, N.Y. 11971 Location: W/s Main Road (S.R. #25), Southold, N.Y. North by Mann; South by Flower Hill Building Corp.; West by Baitz; East by Main Road & ors. SCTM# 1000-070-01-006 NATURE OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT: Petitioners have proposed the creation of 18 quarter acre unimproved lots on 9.01 acres which will be sold to qualified recipients of the Affordable Housing Legislation. The calculations for the number of Affordable Housing lots, as well as the multiple single family units, were based on 1/2 acre yield, then clustered into quarter acre lots to maximize the acreage of open space. The Petitioner intends to sell all 18 lots for the maximum sales price of twenty-five thousand ($25,000.00) dollars per lot. Each lot owner, within this Affordable Housing subdivision, will be encouraged to build a home that will accommodate individual needs while maintaining the integrity of the community. The remaining 9.01 acres will contain two and three bedroom multiple single family units which will provide an alternative housing style those individuals who do not qualify for Affordable Housing or for senior citizen complexes. to The Petitioner intends to maintain a separate and distinct boundary between the single family lots to be sold pursuant to the Affordable Housing schedule and the multiple dwelling units. In accordance with the AHD legislation, Petitioner will sell no more than 50% of land at market value. How this Affordable Housing Project will be designed to fulfill the purposes of this Article: The purpose of the Affordable Housing Legislation 'is to provide higher density housing for families of moderate income, preferably families employed or residing in the Town of Southold. Town Master Plan: The proposed petition is in conformity with the Southold Town Master Plan. The Master Plan proposed the Hamlet Density Residential District which would provide for a mix of housing types and level of residential density found appropriate to areas in and around the major hamlet centers. Similarly, the Affordable Housing District is intended for land within 1/2 mile of the Hamlet of Southold. Site Analysis: The site of the proposed Affordable Housing Project is ideal for the intended project. The property is a total of 18.021 acres with one-half of the property designated for Affordable Housing. The layout of the project will include treed and landscaped streets, two areas of open space, which can be improved and dedicated to the Town or left in its natural state, and the design of the project is intended to create a quiet setting for Southold residents. The property will result in a minimum burden on governmental facilities because the property is within walking distance to Southold schools, churches, post office, local businesses and public transportation. The likely candidates for affordable housing are young families or retired persons on fixed incomes who are often dependent on transportation. The Affordable Housing recipients will be conveniently located within walking distance to the town, relying less on their vehicles and, consequently, reducing traffic at the site. Safety of Street System: The street layout of the proposed project was created with input from the Southold Town Planner. The design of the streets within the proposed project have been carefully designed to maximize safety while maintaining traffic flow. The streets within the proposed project make use of cul-de-sacs and connecting streets. The proposed streets will eventually connect to land now or formerly of Hemblo and land now or formerly of Flower Hill Building Corp. The roads will be improved to Town standards and dedicated to Southold Town. Street drainage: In order to maximize the open space, water runoff will be collected and disposed of by underground leaching basins. Leaching basins will make better use of the open space, as well as prevent an eyesore to the community. Character of area: The proposed residential development will conform .to the character of established developments in Southold Town by the use of landscaping, plantings and covenants and restrictions. The creation of single family unimproved lots will give the owners the opportunity to build their own homes of varying styles. Owners will take pride in owning their own homes which will be built to meet their individual needs. Covenants and restrictions can be imposed, if desired by the Town, which can impose architectural controls on the design and aesthetic quality of the community. Utilities: The proposed lots will be serviced by Greenport Utility Company and individual septic systems. In order to meet the needs of Greenport Utility Company, the Petitioner will donate a well of appropriate quality and quantity to the Village of Greenport, or provide money in lieu of a well which will allow the Village of Greenport to apply such funds to the improvement of existing systems. Conclusion: In a concerted effort to keep the young families in Southold Town, the Town Board instituted Affordable Housing legislation. The Petitioner has responded to the need by submitting this Affordable Housing project. We respectfully request that the Southold Town Board and the Southold Town Planning Board approve the proposed petition. NAME Diana Zanqanas & ano. 1572 E. 96th Street Brooklyn, N.Y. 11236 Anna L.
