Re: Apodiacos Standard Subdivision
SCTM# 1000-35-5-3
This proposal is for a Standard Subdivision of a 3.26 acre parcel into four lots, where Lot 1 is .92
acres and contains an existing house, Lot 2 is .92 acres and Lot 3 is 1.22 acres. A fourth lot
includes an existing right-of-way easement across the property and equals .20 acres. The
property is located at 4260 Main Road, Greenport, NY.
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 LWRP below listed
policies and,therefore, CONSISTENT with the LWRP. The following is recommended to further
the policies.
5.5. Protect and conserve the quality and quantity of potable water.
The area is served by public water. Water supply and the adequacy of sustaining use during
drought conditions are becoming more of a serious challenge.
Water conservation practices are recommended to minimize water use impacts.
1. The use of low-flow plumbing fixtures.
2. Irrigation controls:
a. The use of drip irrigation systems is recommended. Rain barrels are
encouraged.
b. Total long-term permanent irrigation of each lot should be limited to 15% of
the lot area not improved with structures.
c. Soil moisture sensors should be used with irrigation systems, to water only
when necessary during times of low soil moisture.
d. Lawn areas should be seeded with improved turf species with deeper root
systems and greater drought tolerance, thus requiring less irrigation than
conventional turf species.
Further, it is recommended that the following best management practices are required to
further policies 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 and protect the ground and surface waters of Southold.
a. Require the use of native, drought-tolerant plants in landscaping.
b. Require only the use of organic fertilizers where the water-soluble nitrogen
is no more than 20%of the total nitrogen in the mixture.
c. Require a maximum of 1 lb. of nitrogen per 1000 square feet in any one
application, with a cumulative application of no more than 2 lbs. per 1,000
square feet per year.
d. Prohibit the application of fertilizer products containing nitrogen,
phosphorus, or potassium between November 1st and April 111.
e. The use of phosphorous-containing lawn fertilizer is prohibited unless
establishing a new lawn or soil test shows that the lawn does not have
enough phosphorus. Fertilizer labels have three bold numbers. The number
in the middle is the percentage of phosphorus in the product, e.g. 22-0-15.
Use of products with 0.67 in the middle or lower is not restricted. Products
with a number higher than 0.67 may only be used if a new lawn is being
established or a soil test indicates it is necessary.
Please contact me at (631) 765-1938 if you have any questions regarding the above.
