TOWN BOARD RESOLUTION 2019-286 Item # 7.52
ADOPTED DOC ID: 31239
Notice of Adoption of a Local Law to Change the Zoning
Classification from Residential (R40) to Hamlet
Commercial/Residential (HC) as proposed in the Zone Change
Application entitled "5 Cedar Lane LLC" (Cromer's Market),
Noyac
WHEREAS, in July 2016, 5 Cedar Lane LLC submitted a request, pursuant to Town Code
§330-185(C), for a public work session to discuss a proposed application for a change-of-
zone; and
WHEREAS, specifically, Cedar Lane LLC seeks a zoning change from Residential (R-40) to
Hamlet Commercial/Residential (HC) on a .1 acre (5,172 sq. ft.) parcel located on the west
side of Cedar Lane Avenue approximately 150 ft. North of Noyack Rd, within the Hamlet of
Noyac (SCTM #900-6-1-44); and
WHEREAS, the subject parcel is a pre-existing, non-conforming lot in the Residential (R-40)
zone directly adjacent to Cromer’s Market (SCTM #900-6-1-43) and is currently utilized for
ancillary parking and storage associated with the Market; and
WHEREAS, the proposed zone change would allow the applicant to formalize the parking for
the Market use in addition to retaining the existing building on the site for office/storage use
and utilize the private roadway upon abandonment as part of the site plan to accommodate
parking and drive aisles while still providing easement access to the north; and
WHEREAS, a public work session was held on the change-of-zone proposal on July 6, 2017
where the Department of Land Management submitted a report and recommendation as
provided in §330-185 (C) (1); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Town Code §330-185(C) (4), by Resolution No. 2017-1154, the
Town Board elected to consider a formal application on said proposal; and
WHEREAS, on June 26, 2018 the Town Clerk received a formal application for the subject
change of zone; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on August 14, 2018 to hear any and all persons either
for or against the proposal with a majority of support for this action expressed in the
community; and
WHEREAS, the Town Board coordinated Lead Agency with the Planning Board as the only
other identified involved agency and referred the matter to the Suffolk County Planning
Commission; and
WHEREAS, by letter dated August 2, 2018 the Suffolk County Planning Commission
determined the Action to be a matter of local jurisdiction;
WHEREAS, on August 23, 2018 the Planning Board declined Lead Agency status by
Resolution 2018-284; and

Southampton Town Board - Letter Board Meeting of February 26, 2019
WHEREAS, by Resolution 2018-943 the Town Board assumed Lead Agency for the purpose
of SEQRA review for the subject application; and
WHEREAS, by Resolution 2019-163 the Town Board as Lead Agency adopted a Negative
Declaration (determination of non-significance) pursuant to SEQRA for the subject zone
change; now, therefore, be it hereby
RESOLVED, that Local Law No. 6 of 2019 is hereby adopted as follows:
LOCAL LAW NO. 6 of 2019
A LOCAL LAW amending the zoning classification of a .1 acre parcel identified as SCTM No.
900-6-1-44 from Residential (R-40) to Hamlet Commercial (HC) in the Hamlet of Noyac”.
BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Southampton as follows:
SECTION 1. Legislative Intent.
The subject parcel is a pre-existing (prior to 1957), non-conforming lot in the Residential
(R-40) zone directly adjacent to Cromer’s Market. There is a pre-existing dwelling that is
used for record storage/office in connection with the business and the site currently is
utilized for ancillary parking and storage associated with the Market. Cromer's Market is a
popular and beloved family-owned marketplace that is central to the identity of place in
Noyac.
The subject parcel is residentially zoned however it already is informally utilized to support
the Market use with ancillary parking. The proposed re-zoning would support this practice
and under the HC zoning designation, the Planning Board would impose standards for
landscaping and drainage as part of the site plan review. Cedar Lane is a private roadway
that the applicant has expressed interest in abandoning (with easement access to the north)
so that it may be utilized to improve the access and circulation for the market. The public
and neighbor to the north supported this concept along with the zoning change to improve
the circulation and conditions associated with the market use.

Southampton Town Board - Letter Board Meeting of February 26, 2019
The 1999 Comprehensive Plan Update recommended a ‘country crossroads’ theme for
Noyac that features small-scale development and rural vistas along Noyac Road, at the
Burkshire Place/Pine Neck vicinity and the Bay Avenue/Cedar Lane vicinity. The Noyac
Hamlet Study (November 2004) focused on three different existing commercial ‘nodes’
along Noyac Road, and made land use and design recommendations in tandem with
transportation and traffic calming recommendations. Given the scale of the existing land
uses in the Study Area and throughout the Hamlet, the study recommended adoption and
implementation of the HO-HC zoning for specific parcels in order to accomplish the following
objectives of the Comprehensive Plan Update:
Creating low impact attractive neighborhood centers with a rural character,
Slowing and altering traffic to increase pedestrian and bicyclist safety as well
as ease access in and out of businesses,
Obviating the need to travel long distances for convenience shopping, and
Providing an orderly transition in uses, density and bulk between residential,
retail and office development along the central business corridor.
Therefore, as per these recommendations of the adopted 2004 Noyac Hamlet Center Study,
in 2005 the Hamlet Office/Residential (HO) zoning and Hamlet Commercial/Residential (HC)
zoning classifications replaced the Village Business (VB) districts that were designated for
Cromer’s Market and the Whalebone General Store
While the subject property was excluded from the original rezoning, as described this parcel
already acts as ancillary parking and operations to support Cromer’s Market and provides
parking off of Noyack Road. Therefore, by extending the boundary of the HC district, the
Town can work with the applicant to accomplish the outlined objectives. In doing so the
applicant will formalize the parking, add landscaping and configure the site plan elements to
be most conducive to the health, safety and welfare of the surrounding neighbors as well as
patrons of the Market.
SECTION 2. Map Amendment
Parcel identified as SCTM No. 900-6-1-44 is hereby changed from Residential (R-40) to
Hamlet Commercial/Residential (HC), inclusive of the private roadway of Cedar Lane. The
Town’s GIS Department is authorized to make this amendment to the Town’s Zoning Map.
SECTION 3. Authority.
The Town Board is authorized to amend its zoning map pursuant to Article 16 of the State of
New York Town Law.
SECTION 4. Severability.
If any section or subsection, paragraph, clause, phrase or provision of this law shall be
adjudged invalid or held unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, any
judgment made thereby shall not affect the validity of this law as a whole or any part
thereof other than the part or provisions so adjudged to be invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 5. Effective Date.
This local law shall take effect upon filing with the Secretary of State pursuant to Municipal
Home Rule Law.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town Clerk is hereby authorized to publish the
following Notice of Adoption:
