M �'Jk lITlon To: Donald Wilcenski, Chair Planning Board Town of Southold Planning Board From: Mark Terry,LWRP Coordinator Date: November 20, 2023 Re: Cell Tower at Albertsons Marine SCTM# 1000-56-3-15 Zoning District—M-II The Proposed Action involves the installation of a wireless communications facility 150f-foot above grade level (agl)concealment pole with the antennas of multiple wireless service carriers concealed within, and two Southold Fire District whip antennas mounted atop the concealment pole reaching a top height of 164-feet-I0±-inches agl, at 61405 Main Road in the hamlet of Southold, Town of Southold, Suffolk County,New York. Six Verizon Wireless panel antennas would be installed within the concealment pole in three sectors(two panel antennas per sector)at centerline heights of 141-feet-2f inches agl and 146-feet-1±inch agl. Three Dish Wireless panel antennas would be installed within the concealment pole in three sectors(one panel antenna per sector) at a centerline height of 132±feet agl. There would be room for additional future wireless service carrier antennas within the concealment pole below the Verizon Wireless and Dish Wireless in the General Business Zoning District. The Verizon Wireless equipment would be installed atop a proposed 10f-f6ot-by-20f-foot(200f-sf) steel platform surrounded by a 42±-inch-high handrail, and would be covered by a steel canopy with a top height of 11-feet-6f inches agl. Four Verizon Wireless GPS units would be mounted atop the equipment canopy to a top height of 13-feet-6± inches agl. The Dish Wireless equipment would be installed atop a proposed 8f-foot-by-l0±-foot(80f-sf)steel platform surrounded by a 42f-inch-high handrail. One Dish Wireless GPS unit would be mounted atop the equipment platform. The Southold Fire District equipment would be installed atop a proposed 8f-foot-by-10±-foot(80f-sf) equipment platform. The proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP)Policy Standards. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this department, the proposed action is consistent with the below listed policies and therefore is recommended as CONSISTENT with the LWRP. Policy 1. Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character, preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development. Policy 3. Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. 3.1 Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. D. Use appropriate siting, scales,forms, and materials to ensure that structures are compatible with and add interest to existing scenic components. The parcel is zoned M-II which is defined as §280-54 Purpose. The purpose of the Marine II (MII)District is to provide a waterfront location for a wide range of water-dependent and water- related uses, which are those uses that require or benefit from direct access to or location in marine or tidal waters and which, in general, are located on major waterways, open bayfronts or the Long Island Sound. Surrounding zoning includes: 1. North: R-80 zoning district,LIRR tracks, Town Open Space including wetlands 2. South: MII zoning district,County Open Space including wetlands, small vacant parcel, active marina, R-40 zoning district to SE of parcel 3. East: MII zoning district,exterior boat storage 4. West: MII zoning district with Albertson Marine maintenance and sales office building,exterior boat storage. Residential(R-80 zoning)begins just west of the Albertson Marine parcel. It should be noted that this location is not optimum for the siting of the wireless communication facility and is the fifth of six preferred locations outlined in the Town Code. The co-location of the Southold Fire District communication antennae is the main reason the wireless communication facility has been considered for this location. Communication service gaps outlined in the submitted reports, along with public hearing testimony regarding the emergency response communication challenges Southold's Fire District face,this location is well suited to improve telecommunications services in this area. Based on the Applicant's submitted materials, the Towns consultant(CityScape) concurs with the Applicant's findings that the proposed antennas for Dish,Verizon, and the Fire District will need to be placed on a new tower, on non- Town-owned property, in this zoning district due to a lack of opportunity elsewhere(Planning Board Staff Report November 20, 2023). The monopole will be directly visible from State Route 25 (S.R. 25), a New York State Scenic Byway, and is visible from publicly accessible vantage points seasonally and year-round by routine travel of residents and visitors. The equipment compound is located behind an existing boat storage warehouse structure on the subject property, is set back from the road,and is not expected to be readily apparent to people traveling on NYS 25 due to the existing boatyard use. A visual analysis titled Proposed Wireless Communications Facility Albertsons Marine(June 2023), prepared by VHB Consultants has been submitted and reviewed. The study analyzed a one-mile radius from the 150' proposed concealment pole and associated equipment using a crane test. The 12+foot Fire Department antenna proposed on the concealment pole was included.It is recognized that the concealed antennae design contributes to mitigating adverse impacts on scenic character. Furthermore, both carriers have submitted evidence supporting their proposed antenna heights of 146 and 141 feet AGL for Verizon and 132 feet for Dish. The Fire District also provided an engineering report from Integrated Wireless Technologies(IWT)which states that "150 [feet of antenna height] is required to provide coverage at levels acceptable for Public Safety communications systems and ensure the ability for the firefighter to communicate during critical calls." Based upon the analysis,the proposed action is not inconsistent with this policy. Specific mitigation designs have been considered: 1. Concealment pole design. All antennae excluding the whip antennaes at the top of the pole will be concealed. 2. Paint the pole with a neutral color to blend in with the sky. The applicant is proposing a blue/gray color. 3. Screened by existing development, a six-foot tali chain link fence,and evergreen vegetation. The applicant is proposing a staggered pattern of 6' tall evergreen trees along the northern and western perimeter of the equipment compound. The following notable designs of the wireless communications facility design to lessen impacts on policies were also considered: 1. Design to minimize impacts from flooding. According to New York State,a 12- inch scenario sea level rise will affect the parcel. The compound should be designed accordingly. 2. Design to minimize impacts to the health and safety of the population from FCC Maximum Permissible Exposure(MPE) limits. "Antenna Site FCC RF Compliance Assessment and Report" by Pinnacle telecom Group,dated August 22,2022. 3. Structural integrity design to minimize impacts from a tower failure. Structural Report Letter from Carpenter&Cross, Structural Engineers, dated September 22, 2023. The site is cleared and improved;therefore,the proposed action will not result in the significant removal or destruction of large quantities of vegetation.No significant adverse impacts to soils will result. Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.

Specifically, the Proposed Action includes the installation of a 150±-foot above grade level (agl) concealment pole with the antennas of multiple wireless service carriers concealed within and two Southold Fire District whip antennas mounted atop the concealment pole reaching a top height of 164-feet-10±-inches agl. Six Verizon Wireless panel antennas would be installed within the concealment pole in three sectors (two panel antennas per sector) at centerline heights of 141-feet-2± inches agl and 146-feet-1± inch agl.Three Dish Wireless panel antennas would be installed within the concealment pole in three sectors (one panel antenna per sector) at a centerline height of 132± feet agl.There would be room for additional future wireless service carrier antennas within the concealment pole below the Verizon Wireless and Dish Wireless antennas. The concealment pole would be installed within a 70±-foot-by-35±-foot (2,450±-square-foot [sf]) ground-based fenced equipment compound situated at the rear(north) side of the Subject Property behind an existing boat storage warehouse.The equipment compound would include space for the equipment of multiple wireless service carriers (i.e., Verizon Wireless, Dish Wireless and future carriers), and the Southold Fire District. The Verizon Wireless equipment would be installed atop a proposed 10±-foot-by-20±-foot(200±-sf) steel platform surrounded by a 42±-inch-high handrail, and would be covered by a steel canopy with a top height of 11-feet-6± inches agl. Four Verizon Wireless GPS units would be mounted atop the equipment canopy to a top height of 13-feet-6± inches agl. The Dish Wireless equipment would be installed atop a proposed 8±-foot-by-10±-foot (80±-sf) steel platform surrounded by a 42±-inch-high handrail. One Dish Wireless GPS unit would be mounted atop the equipment platform. The Southold Fire District equipment would be installed atop a proposed 8±-foot-by-10±-foot (80±-sf) equipment platform. The equipment within the compound would be connected to the concealment pole via cable bridges (one cable bridge per equipment platform).Additionally, utility connections (i.e., power and telco) would be routed underground from an existing utility pole on Main Road to a proposed transformer and mesa cabinet within the equipment compound. Power and telco conduits would be routed underground within the equipment compound from the transformer and mesa cabinet to the equipment platforms. All equipment within the compound would be elevated a minimum of 3± feet agl to provide a minimum of two feet of clearance above the base flood elevation of six feet (North American Vertical Datum of 1988). Proposed Wireless Communications Facility—Albertson Marine LWRP Consistency Assessment Form The equipment compound would be surrounded by a 6±-foot agl black chain link fence with an access gate on the east side of the compound. Evergreen trees with a minimum height of 6± feet agl would be planted in a stager pattern along the north and west sides of the compound to provide additional screening. Sect C— Evolgation of LWRP Policies This section provides additional discussion of the relevant items listed in Section C of the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form. Policy 1 —Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character, preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development. The proposed concealment pole and associated equipment compound would be situated upon an unvegetated portion of the overall Subject Property, which currently serves as a boat storage and maintenance facility.The Project Area would occupy only 0.06± acre (5.9± percent of the Subject Property).The proposed concealment pole would conceal the antennas of multiple wireless service carriers within the pole,thereby promoting co-location and obviating the need for multiple tall structures throughout the community, and would be a neutral color to blend with the sky and surroundings.The installation of Southold Fire District communications antennas would improve emergency response services in the area. Further, the concealment pole would be situated along a corridor containing a variety of uses, including marinas and the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR), rather than along the shoreline or on agricultural or open space land. Finally, the presence of a communications facility along (or visible from) the Main Road (NYS Route 25) corridor would not be precedent setting, as there are other similar facilities with communications antennas along that roadway, including at the Southold Fire Department, 1.16± miles west of the Proposed Facility, and at the Southold Police Department, 3.64± miles southwest of the Proposed Facility. Overall, the design and location of the Proposed Facility minimizes adverse effects of development and is consistent with this Policy. Policy 2—Protect and preserve historic and archaeological resources of the Town of Southold. Section 106 review was completed for the Proposed Facility.The New York State Historic Preservation Office (NYSHPO) issued a determination as part of the Section 106 review, dated November 16, 2017, indicating "No Historic Properties in Area of Potential Effects (APE)" for Direct Effects, and "No Adverse Effect on Historic Properties in APE"for Visual Effects (see Appendix A for SHPO determination). Therefore,the Proposed Facility is consistent with this Policy. Policy 3— Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. Although the proposed concealment pole would be visible from the surrounding area, including along Main Road (a designated Scenic Byway), it is anticipated, as indicated by the visual analysis submitted under separate cover(see Planning,Zoning and Visual Impact Analysis, VHB May 2023)that views would be limited, as the proposed concealment would be obscured from view from many locations by intervening structures and vegetation.The proposed ground-based equipment compound would be situated at the rear of the overall Subject Property, behind an existing building, such that it would not be visually prominent in views from the surrounding area. Finally,wireless service carrier antennas for multiple carriers would be concealed within the concealment pole structure, screening the antennas from 2 Proposed Wireless Communications Facility—Albertson Marine LWRP Consistency Assessment Form view and obviating the need for multiple communications facilities in the area.Additionally, the concealment pole's neutral coloration would allow it to blend with the surrounding area. Further,views of the proposed concealment pole would not be unprecedented, as there are other similar facilities with communications antennas along that roadway, including at the Southold Fire Department, 1.16± miles west of the Proposed Facility, and at the Southold Police Department, 3.64± miles southwest of the Proposed Facility. Overall,the Proposed Facility has been designed in a manner that is protective of visual quality and scenic resources, consistent with this Policy. Policy 4—Minimize loss of life,structures,and natural resources from flooding and erosion. The Subject Property is not located within a Coastal Erosion Hazard Area. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Panel 36103C0l59H, the Proposed Facility location is within a designated Special Flood Hazard Area (i.e.,Zone AE, base flood elevation 6 feet).This indicates that there is a one percent annual chance of flood waters reaching or exceeding the base flood elevations at the Subject Property.As indicated by the project engineer, Azimuth Engineering, installation of the Proposed Facility would result in the minimal disturbance of only 0.08± acre of existing unvegetated, previously developed areas on the Subject Property and a 0.04±-acre reduction of impervious surfaces at the Subject Property, replacing existing impervious surfaces with new landscaping (i.e., screening vegetation surrounding the ground-based equipment compound). Furthermore, the Proposed Facility is designed to meet the Town's Floodplain Development Permit requirements for nonresidential structures, as set forth at § 148-19(A) of the Town Code.These design features include elevating the proposed equipment on platforms at least two feet above the base flood elevation, and ensuring that the portions of the facility below the base flood elevation (i.e., the base of the concealment pole and equipment platform support piers) will be constructed to be watertight and substantially impermeable to the passage of water and are capable of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and the effects of buoyancy. Based on the design of the Proposed Facility, it is consistent with this Policy. Policy 6— Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystems including Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats and wetlands. The Project Area is not within or adjacent to a Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat.The Project Area is within the 100-foot jurisdictional adjacent area of NYSDEC and Town of Southold regulated freshwater wetlands. Consultation is underway to secure wetlands permits from the NYSDEC and the Town. As provided by the project engineer, Azimuth Engineering, during construction, silt fence, straw bales, and other erosion and silt controls will be installed and maintained, as necessary, to prevent adverse impacts on wetlands. It is also noted that the Proposed Facility would be on a previously disturbed, unvegetated area, and would not result in any significant adverse impacts to ecosystems. Policy 10—Protect Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water-dependent uses in suitable locations. As the Proposed Facility is a wireless communications facility, it would not directly protect or promote the siting of water-dependent resources. However, existing and future water-dependent uses would potentially benefit in emergency situations, as Verizon Wireless service, Dish Wireless service, and the services of potential future wireless service providers that would co-locate within the facility, would be 3 Proposed Wireless Communications Facility-Albertson Marine LWRP Consistency Assessment Form enhanced. In addition,the Southold Fire Department would install communications antennas at the top of the concealment pole,thereby improving its emergency communications capabilities. Policy 13-Promote appropriate use and development of energy and mineral resources. The Proposed Facility would use a minimal amount of electricity and would be unmanned.Therefore,the effect on energy and mineral resources would be minimal. \\vhb.com\gbl\proj\Hauppauge\22175.00 Elite Towers-Albertson\Reports\LWRP\CAF Attachment.dou 4 Figure 1: Site Location �hb.
