Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section I | Page 5 Expertise in SEQRA Administration, FEIS/DEIS & Regional Impact Analysis Local Planning is an NPV specialty and the NPV team is well versed in east end and north fork issues, opportunities, and solutions. We have extensive expertise in the preparation of Environmental Impact Statements, review, coordinating with personnel during meetings, comprehensive plans, mitigation strategies, familiarity with marina operations and marine vessels, and knowledge of Southold Town Code. NPV’s team brings practical and demonstrated success in preparing Environmental Impact Statements, including working with Town boards and planning staff, the community, local stakeholders and other involved agencies to ensure that a comprehensive review is completed in accordance with SEQRA. NPV is aware of the complexities in the planning and regulatory processes and therefore strives to work with municipal clients and applicants to ensure all parties understand the various aspects of the approval process. NPV will apply this knowledge and insight to the project on behalf of the Town of Southold. NPV planners are certified (through the American Institute of Certified Planners) and keep current with changes and trends in the field through publications and attendance at American Planning Association and Planning Federation conferences. N+P/NPV maintains a strong reputation and working relationships with State, County and Town agencies through the firm’s involvement in public and private projects throughout Long Island. SEQRA requires a decision-making body to assess the environmental consequences of decisions to undertake, fund or approve “actions” as defined by SEQRA. Article 8 of the New York State Environmental Conservation Law and the regulations contained in 6 NYCRR Part 617, SEQRA, provide appropriate guidance for agencies to conduct this review. NPV staff includes experts in the SEQRA process and will assist the Town with the technical review and analyses to ensure a thorough examination is completed and applicable requirements of SEQRA are fulfilled. NPV effectively balances stakeholder interests and the importance of environmental, ecological, and economic resources. We have a robust history of working with Long Island communities assessing contemplated projects and seeking solutions to mitigate concerns during the SEQRA review process. NPV Partner Carrie O’Farrell will lead this effort and bring to this assignment particular insight and knowledge on Long Island, land use, environmental resource assessment and preservation, economic development, and zoning. Ms. O’Farrell has worked with a number of communities throughout Long Island in preparation of FEIS Reviews and coordinating with personnel during meetings, while meeting the needs of the Town and community, and preserving important natural habitat and community resources. With Ms. O’Farrell’s knowledge and experience with SEQRA reviews, and solid base of knowledge of the Town and its Code, NPV is uniquely qualified to prepare a FEIS for the Strong’s Storage Buildings for the Town of Southold. Communication with stakeholders, other municipal department representatives, and when needed making presentations to the Board and community groups can be an important component in the review process. NPV routinely appears before community groups and decision-making boards as organizers, facilitators, and as expert witnesses to present data and information for complex decision making. Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section II | Page 6 II: Understanding, Technical Approach Project Understanding Nelson, Pope Voorhis, LLC (NPV), along with our affiliated firm N&P Engineering, Architecture and Land Surveying, PLLC (N+P), are pleased to submit this response to the Town to provide planning, environmental and engineering review services in support of the preparation of a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the Strong’s Storage Buildings Project. The site plan application before the Planning Board is for the proposed construction of two buildings for boat storage, 52,500 square feet (SF) and 49,000 SF, respectively, located on 32.6 acres (5780 West Mill Road, Mattituck) in the MII and R-80 Zoning Districts. NPV/NP has been involved in the review of the Draft EIS for the Strong’s Storage Buildings with the Town Planning Staff and therefore are familiar with the DEIS and details of the proposed application. We work on behalf of many municipalities as their environmental planner and engineer in review of large and small development projects, comprehensive planning, zoning and SEQRA. Therefore, we are familiar with the process and appropriate levels of SEQRA analysis that should be required. SEQRA requires a decision-making body to assess the environmental consequences of their decision to undertake, fund or approve an “action.” Article 8 of the New York State Environmental Conservation Law and the regulations contained in 6NYCRR Part 617, SEQRA, provide appropriate guidance for agencies to conduct this review. Our team is expert in the SEQRA process and will assist the Town with the technical review of the application to ensure a thorough review is completed in accordance with SEQRA. Additionally, the N+P team of civil and traffic engineers, architects and landscape architects are available to review the preliminary plans and provide recommendations to the Town for consideration in planning and potential mitigation options. Our team is very familiar with the subject property and the surrounding area. The following outlines the anticipated scope of services for environmental review services of the proposal. It is noted that tasks will be billed based upon the hours expended and the hourly rate schedule provided in Section III under Fee Schedule. The time necessary for preparation of the Final EIS may depend on a number of factors, including and not limited to the extent and nature of the comments received during the public comment period, extent of agency comments, and other factors. Technical Approach The following is summary of tasks to be completed: Task 1: Initial Kick-off Meeting with the Town The meeting will provide an opportunity for NPV and Town staff to inform the Planning Board of next steps of the SEQRA process and discuss any additional information or clarifications that may be Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section II | Page 7 needed to fully understand the Planning Board and Planning staff’s concerns, approach and scope of pertinent/critical issues and concerns. Detailed minutes will be recorded at this meeting to document the input and insights received (and if acceptable to the Board, the meeting itself can be recorded). NPV will prepare a precise meeting record to ensure that the NPV team can prepare a FEIS that fully and accurately reflects Lead Agency sentiments. Deliverable: Meeting minutes from the first meeting with the Lead Agency. Deliverables: •Meeting minutes from the third meeting with the Lead Agency •Second draft of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (if needed) •Meeting minutes from the fourth meeting with the Lead Agency •Final draft of the Final Environmental Impact Statement with Cover Letter of Acceptance •NYSDEC Environmental Notice Bulletin filing •Meeting minutes from the fifth meeting with the Lead Agency (if needed) Task 2: Review of DEIS and Project Plans NPV is very familiar with the DEIS prepared for this project and understands the site and surrounding environmental conditions, Town Zoning and Code requirements, and project issues and site constraints based on its previous work on this project. Nevertheless, NPV will need to review the DEIS and Site Plans to ensure a deeper understanding of the project and the analyses contained within as they relate to public comments, including those topics that were not part of NPV’s previous DEIS review scope. NPV will identify salient issues, review the DEIS’s content and factual information such as existing conditions, review the impact assessments, project alternatives, and bases for conclusions, and consider the suitability and robustness of the DEIS’s content for addressing DEIS comments. The purpose of this task is to fully understand the project, site, adjacent resources, and project impacts and mitigations, so that we may more fully and accurately respond to DEIS comments. Deliverables: Identification salient issues, review the DEIS’s content and proposed plan review Task 3: Review Public and Agency Comments NPV will download or otherwise obtain all relevant written correspondence and Town procedural documentation from the Town’s Laserfiche/Weblink system. Additionally, the team will review the two public hearing transcripts (if only videos are available, the cost of transcribing the two hearings will be considered an outside service, paid directly by the Town) and begin the process of identifying and delineating substantive project-related comments and questions. We will organize and consolidate these comments and questions under general environmental topics to facilitate more efficient and thorough responses. Substantive project-related comments and questions will be identified, delineated, coded and categorized for discussion and eventual written responses. It is understood that additional comments for review may be forthcoming, until end of the public comment period of July 10th. Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section II | Page 8 Based on the considerable volume of comments received and posted by the Town as of the date of this proposal, this task will be started immediately. Additional comment letters may be post-marked by the July 10th date but may not be received by the Town for several days following the close of the comment period. Therefore, the schedule for this task should allow for time to review the last minute comment letters that are often received at the very end of the comment period. Therefore, we suggest that the summary of the comments (deliverable) is delivered one week following the close of the public comment period. Deliverables: Compilation of relevant, substantive Public Comments on the accepted Drafted Environmental Statement Task 4: Attend second meeting with the Town. NPV will attend a second meeting with the Planning Board and Planning Staff to discuss the project and FEIS and will take detailed meeting minutes to document these discussions. NPV will develop a preliminary outline including a list of topics for review. NPV will verbally summarize issues, discuss the organization of the FEIS, and seek additional input and direction from the Planning Board and Planning Staff. We will also discuss the need for any follow up analysis or information from the applicant or other reviewing agencies. Deliverable: Meeting minutes from the second meeting with the Lead Agency Task 5: Prepare the first draft of the FEIS The NPV team will prepare the FEIS in accordance with the SEQRA and its implementing regulations at 6 NYCRR Part 617. The FEIS will include will include a summary of the environmental review process demonstrating that the Planning Board has followed all applicable review, noticing, filing, and procedural requirements; a brief description of the project, incorporating the DEIS into the FEIS by reference, and include tables containing the names of each individual or agency who provided comments at a public hearing or submitted written comments into the record, the dates of the comments and each comment code. General statistics including a brief summary of the total number of speakers from the two hearings and total number of written correspondences received including those from the general public and those from involved and interested agencies will be provided along with a tally of the total number of comments received. Comments that indicate only support or opposition to the project without further elaboration will be “acknowledged.” A response may be provided but a formal response is not required. NPV/N+P will utilize its traffic and civil engineers, planning, ecological, environmental staff, landscape architects, and hydrogeologic experts as needed to ensure fact-based reasoned responses for the Planning Board to consider and support the development of a Statement of Findings and final Determination of Significance and conclusion as per environmental impact. Additional mitigation will be identified if practical. Deliverables: First draft of the Final Environmental Impact Statement Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section II | Page 9 Task 6: Attend third meeting with the Town NPV will attend a third meeting with the Planning Board and Planning Staff to discuss the first draft of the FEIS and seek Lead Agency and Planning Staff input as to the suitability of responses and consistency with the opinions and conclusions of the Planning Board. NPV will respond to any technical, scientific, or procedural inquiries posed by the Town representatives. NPV will take meeting minutes to fully document the meeting and to use as a reference as needed to ensure that the revised version addresses identified issues and recommendations. Deliverable: Meeting minutes from the third meeting with the Lead Agency. Task 7: Revise the Final EIS per the Town Comments The FEIS is the Lead Agency’s document. As stated in the regulations implementing SEQRA, the Lead Agency is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the FEIS, regardless of who prepares it. NPV will meet with the Planning Board and Town staff to discuss the adequacy of responses, receive and document comments and recommendations to ensure that accurately reflects the Lead Agency’s opinions and conclusions, or modify the FEIS as necessary in accordance with this input. The FEIS will be written to provide the information and conclusions necessary for a SEQRA Findings Statement to be prepared. Deliverable: Second draft of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (if needed) Tasks 8 and 9: Additional Lead Agency Meetings NPV will attend up to two additional meetings and issue meeting minutes to document comments and discussions with the Town staff and/or other involved agencies. We will work with the Town to discuss the next steps in the process, including a discussion of the required FEIS consideration period (at least 10 days) and requirements for submission of a FEIS. A notice will be filed with the NYSDEC Environmental Notice Bulletin (ENB) as required by SEQRA indicating acceptance of the FEIS and where the FEIS will be filed for public and agency consideration (at Town Hall and on the Town’s website). Deliverables: Final draft of the Final Environmental Impact Statement with Cover Letter of Acceptance, and NYSDEC Environmental Notice Bulletin filing, and meeting minutes from the fifth meeting with the Lead Agency (if needed). Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section III | Page 10 III: Fee Schedule NPV proposes to submit invoices monthly, with fees based on the actual hours expended and our proposed billing rates, per the rate table included in the following pages.

A brief overview of example projects with contact information for references are provided below and additional project experience can be provided upon request. Enclaves Hotel and Restaurant Site Plan/Special Permit SEQRA Review NPV assisted the Town of Southold Zoning Board of Appeals with a SEQRA review of the Site Plan/Special Exception Use Permit Application for The Enclaves Hotel and Restaurant. The project was proposed on a partially developed 6.75-acre lot zoned “Hamlet Business” containing a single-family residence within a mixed commercial/single-family residential neighborhood. NPV’s responsibilities included reviewing and providing technical comments on submitted SEQRA documents and providing guidance to the ZBA on the SEQRA process, and the standards and requirements of an EIS scoping document, Draft EIS, and Final EIS. NPV also worked with the Board to prepare for public meetings, coordinated meetings and mitigation options with the applicant and prepared the SEQRA Findings Statement for the project. The Enclaves involved a proposal to convert the existing detached single-family residence, which was formerly a bed and breakfast, to a 74‐seat restaurant and construction of a new two‐story, 40‐unit hotel and four detached cottages behind the restaurant. The hotel use included an event space, outdoor and indoor swimming pools, poolside cabanas, a small decorative pond, outdoor rooftop lounge, and basement spa. Additional improvements included parking areas, an onsite sewage treatment plant and drainage infrastructure. Critical Wildlands, Transfer of Development Rights, Town of Southampton NPV prepared Chapter 15 of the DGEIS and FGEIS for the Town of Southampton Critical Wildlands project. The project entailed an analysis of a proposed TDR program to preserve critical areas of the south fork through transfer of development rights (TDR) from sending sites to receiving sites. A Density Transfer Assessment Model was created for SEQRA analysis of the potential cumulative environmental impacts associated with TDR to examine impacts to groundwater, population, tax revenue, solid waste, vehicle trip generation, open space and other parameters. NPV provided an integral role in project assessment to assist the Town in advancing environmental preservation goals within defined Critical Wildlands of the Town. This specific initiative was not finalized by the Town; however, the findings of the model and cumulative impact assessment has informed other Town land use initiatives and is used to date. Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section V | Page 23 Southampton Riverside Brownfield Opportunity Area (BOA) Step II Study and SEQRA GEIS The Riverside BOA study area has been documented as the most economically distressed communities on Long Island. With the goal of improving the economic and housing opportunities in the area, the Town of Southampton entered into an agreement with a Master Developer to prepare the Riverside Revitalization Action Plan (RRAP) to revitalize the Hamlet of Riverside. The RRAP called for the adoption of a new Zoning Overlay District to incentivize economic development through the creation of mixed- use districts. The Overlay Zone is a form-based code and is designed to encourage a mix of retail stores, service-related businesses, restaurants, diverse housing options, along with improved transportation infrastructure with pedestrian pathways, public green spaces and access to the Peconic River. NPV prepared the BOA Step II Nomination Study and also worked with the Town and the selected Master Developer, Renaissance Downtowns, to prepare the GEIS, which evaluated the impacts of the proposed code amendments and a theoretical development scenario of approximately 3.2 million square feet of mixed use residential, commercial and institutional uses. The Hamlet of Riverside is a heavily regulated area, located within the Central Pine Barrens, adjacent to the Peconic River with established total maximum daily load (TMDL) limitations, tidal and freshwater wetlands, NYSDEC Wild Scenic and Recreational River areas, nearby endangered tiger salamander breeding ponds and within a Town Aquifer Protection Overlay District. Therefore, redevelopment activities needed to consider a wide range of environmental sensitivities and regulatory restrictions. The Overlay Code was successfully adopted by the Town Board in December 2015. NPV worked with N+P, the Town and the selected Master Developer, Renaissance Downtowns, to prepare the GEIS and Traffic Impact Study, which evaluated the proposed code amendments and a theoretical development scenario of approximately 3.2 million square feet of mixed use residential, commercial and institutional uses. N+P conducted a comprehensive traffic impact study for Riverside to identify any traffic impacts that will be created by a full build out scenario as outlined in their proposed plan and identify potential mitigation measures that would successfully improve traffic operations within the study that would have minimal impact to the community. Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section V | Page 24 Southampton Village – Various Zoning Initiatives, SEQRA & Planning Consultant since 2006 NPV has provided Environmental Planning consultation services to the Village of Southampton since 2006. NPV provides day to day consulting services for each of the Village boards including SEQRA review and administration, application review, coastal and wetland permit review. NPV provides environmental and planning consulting services related to planning and zoning studies and grant applications. Zoning initiatives have included a 2013 plan for the historic village area which includes new zoning for the downtown. In association with adoption of the new zoning regulations, NPV performed a SEQRA analysis which included a build out analysis to assess the potential change in building area and relative impacts for full build out under current and proposed zoning regulations. Nelson + Pope was also retained by the Village of Southampton to perform a parking study utilization study of the primary lots and on-street parking areas in the downtown area of the Village of Southampton. The study identified the peak parking periods and associated peak occupancy by location, calculated the average parking duration and turnover by location and provided recommendations to improve parking efficiency within the Village. NPV prepared a map for visitors that is available at Village Hall which identifies short and long-term parking options within the Village Business District. NPV has also worked on several special long-range planning studies for the Village, including a study to ensure that the Village maintains its character and is consistent with FEMA floodplain requirements described below. Sag Harbor Environmental Planner and Long Range Planning Initiatives, SEQRA NPV has served as the Village of Sag Harbor’s planner and environmental consultant since 2016. In this role, NPV routinely reviews and tracks site plan and subdivision applications for the Village Planning Board; attends public meetings to present and answer questions and provides SEQRA review and administration. For wetlands applications, NPV delineates wetlands, reviews applications and provides feedback to applicants and the Village Harbor Committee, and prepares permits. In addition, NPV conducts Coastal Consistency reviews and prepares Recommendations for consideration by the Harbor Committee for consistency with the policies of the Village’s adopted Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP). NPV has completed a number of long-range planning efforts on behalf of the Village. NPV prepared the WQIPPP for the Village early in 2016 which identified multiple locations for implementation of Green Infrastructure throughout the Village. The WQIPP has been used as the basis for over a dozen grant funded implementation projects, for which NPV assisted in the grant applications. NPV and N+P have been responsible for design and implementation of rain gardens as Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section V | Page 25 well as public engagement and monitoring to demonstrate the long-term benefits of Green Infrastructure. NPV is working on the LWRP Update which will incorporate an updated Harbor Management Plan including the Harbor Management Charts which were prepared by NPV and adopted by the Village in the spring of 2020 along with amendments to Chapter 278 Waterways. NPV is also working with the Village to revise the Village Zoning Code to increase affordable housing opportunities in both the downtown and throughout the single-family residential portions of the Village. Downtown Overlay Zones - DGEIS - City of New Rochelle, Westchester County NPV worked with Renaissance Downtowns, the Master Developer, and the City of New Rochelle in preparing a Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GEIS) for the proposed adoption of a Downtown Overlay Zone (DOZ) for a 279-acre area of the downtown, centered around the New Rochelle train station. The DOZ is optional, whereby landowners can choose to opt into development under the proposed DOZ requirements. The intent of the Downtown Overlay District is to encourage downtown redevelopment through the creation of an active, mixed-use district with convenient, safe and pleasant access to the train station. The proposed DOZ would standardize uses to encourage the development of economically diverse high-quality housing, modern retail, commercial, office, hotel space and civic uses integrated with well-designed pedestrian friendly streetscapes, and appropriately placed open and green spaces. The GEIS evaluated the specific code amendments to establish downtown overlay districts, as well as site-specific impact analysis of the development scenario pursuant to the zoning amendments. The development scenario evaluated such key issues as historic resources, traffic, system-wide sewer and water infrastructure improvements, community character, shadows, construction phasing, parking, air and noise. NPV also prepared an economic impact analysis, which identified and quantified economic impacts on output, employment and labor income, as well as tax revenues. Town of Southold Economic Development Chapter Comprehensive Plan In an effort to achieve the Town’s vision, five goals and numerous objectives were formed to provide direction for future decision-making pertaining to the Town’s economy. Much of the Town’s economic vitality is based on the Town’s unique rural, historic and maritime-based character as well as its natural resources. NPV prepared the economic chapter of the Comprehensive Plan Update for the Town of Southold to allow for the formation of appropriate recommendations and implementation strategies focused on long-term economic sustainability throughout the Town. One of the specific tasks involved with the economic chapter of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan is the zoning/build-out analysis. The Town of Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section V | Page 26 Southold is facing development pressure and is concerned about the impact that the current zoning may have on the Town’s resources. The Town of Southold prepared a build-out analysis of several zoning districts, and NPV funneled these findings into a model to assess the regional impact of full build-out and modified development scenarios. Ensuring quality of life, protection of environmental resources, housing needs and maintenance of the tax base were key elements of the model. This project involved the creation of a model to synthesize multiple evaluation factors to analyze the impact of full build out of the Town of Southold under its current zoning. Town of Riverhead BOA NPV prepared the Town of Riverhead Brownfield Opportunity Area Step II Nomination Study which provided a roadmap for strategic sites and areas along the Peconic River from the Long Island Expressway to the downtown and a transitional area to the east. The project was funded by the NYS DOS and which was completed in the spring of 2016 and has led to a number of initiatives in the area. The Step II Nomination provided the basis for the State of New York to designate the corridor as a Brownfield Opportunity Area in July of 2016. Since that time, the nomination has provided the foundation for the Town to receive grants from NYS. A subsequent grant awarded to the Town based upon a recommendation of the Study allowed the Town to analyze potential for Transit Oriented Development. The Town retained NPV to prepare this analysis as well as to prepare recommendations for a new zoning overlay district to promote high quality redevelopment near the train station. NPV prepared the TOD Plan which was adopted by the Town of Riverhead as an update to their Comprehensive Plan. The Plan included draft language for the overlay district code for adoption in late 2020. Another grant was awarded for the purchase of land for a public plaza along the Peconic River downtown. A copy of the Plan is available on the Town website: The main goal of the Brownfield Opportunity Area Program is to provide communities with the tools they need to overcome obstacles to redevelopment and to return underutilized or abandoned properties to productive use. The Town identified critical needs as rebranding and a website to highlight the attractions and businesses within the area, and preservation of historic structures. A major transportation planning effort performed by N+P was included to ensure that planned growth can be accommodated by the existing roadway network and because it did now, provided options for if not, how roadway improvements, route planning and expanded public transportation and pedestrian/bicycle improvements would alleviate need for significant roadway improvements and decrease the level of vehicular traffic generally associated with development. NPV conducted the majority of the project components including resource analysis, demographic analysis, regulatory, land use and zoning characterizations, preparation of an Economic and Market Trends Analysis, an area wide environmental assessment, and an analysis to change the Wild, Scenic & Recreational Rivers designation that will permit flexibility in redevelopment of underutilized properties west of the Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section V | Page 27 downtown. The project incorporated an extensive community outreach component, action-oriented planning, and the development of scenarios which seek to overcome obstacles to revitalization in downtown Riverhead and at the gateways along Route 25. The community outreach included two public open house format workshops and an extensive community survey. In June of 2014, the project was recognized as one of five “Outstanding BOA projects” at the annual Brownfields Summit in Albany prior to designation by the State of New York in 2016. A copy of the Final BOA Nomination and presentation materials from open houses and Town Board work sessions are available on the Town of Riverhead website at: Village of Haverstraw, Ongoing Municipal Planning, SEQRA Consulting, Comprehensive Plan, LWRP, Zoning Amendments Nelson Pope Voorhis and its planners have provided on-call planning services to the Village of Haverstraw since 2001. Haverstraw is an urban village on the Hudson River in Rockland County. This small urban Village is home to a treasure trove of historic and scenic resources. Notable projects reviewed on behalf of the Village of Haverstraw include the Harbors at Haverstraw, a planned community that has brought more than 500 units of mixed-housing to the waterfront and is beginning its next phase of 250+ units. NPV assisted in several infrastructure and parks projects throughout the Village including, downtown streetscape enhancements, the Henry Hudson Quadricentennial Park, and the Manny Lopez Municipal Ball Field. The firm completed updates to the Village’s Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Code and LWRP. This is the first update the Village has undertaken of its Comprehensive Plan since 1993 and the first update of the LWRP since 2005. The project has included substantial public outreach including outreach designed to solicit input from the Village’s majority Latino community. The Plan which is being funded by two grants from NYS Department of Environmental Conservation and Department of State includes a Climate Smart Action Plan which assesses the Village’s greenhouse gas emissions and measures to increase energy efficiency and sustainability, and a Coastal Vulnerability and Sea Level Rise analysis, which assesses the land use and infrastructure which is at risk to sea level rise of the tidal Hudson River. NPV developed incentive zoning for key areas within the Village as well as solar energy, affordable housing, and historic preservation laws. Town of Southold FEIS Preparation for Strong’s Storage Buildings Section V | Page 28 Town of Hyde Park, Ongoing Form-Based Code Zoning, Comprehensive Plan, Planning/SEQRA Consulting NPV is planning consultant to the Town Board and Planning Board. For the Town of Hyde Park, NPV prepared zoning amendments to create a new Town Core zoning district which would encompass the Town’s neighborhood centered along Albany Post Road (Route 9)and Pine Woods Road. The area has been developed primarily as a series of conventional strip shopping centers, due to a lack of central sewers. The Town had been awarded grant monies to pursue sewer installation and is now looking to revitalize the Pine Woods area into a mixed-use downtown which would serve as the center for the community. As the zoning amendments evolved, the Town determined that it wanted to regulate building form, and to a lesser extent land use. To that end, NPV prepared Design Standards which incorporated a regulating plan that regulates building types by Town Core subareas. The form-based code considers reuse of two institutional properties, one of which is former elementary school. It encompasses strip retail developments, and the plan calls for the introduction of multifamily dwellings to provide alternative housing opportunities that meet the demands for both young adults and seniors desiring to downsize. It also includes a set of architectural standards to guide future development based on visual preference exercises that define the types and styles of buildings the Town seeks to encourage. An addendum to the comprehensive plan was prepared to ensure the new zoning would be consistent with the Town’s overall Vision. NPV assisted the Town Board with SEQRA review of the zoning amendment, and the Form-Based Code has been adopted.
