Town of Southold Land Tracking Summary for the 4t'Quarter of 2024 October 1,2024 through December 31,2024 Prepared January 14,2025 The most meaningful numbers from the attached Tracking report to focus on are as follows: Residential Subdivision Rate, Residential Development Rate, Preservation Rate and Density Reduction. All of the other numbers and definitions are used to calculate these four numbers. This page of the report will summarize these four numbers for both the current quarter and cumulatively from April 1, 2004 on for the target areas (buildable subdividable R-40, R-80 and AC). In addition, a summary of the Target Area follows indicating the acreages within the target area that have been developed and preserved and the acreages that are still available for development. 4"Quarter of 2024 Summary Residential Subdivision Rate: 1 building lot per 26 acres Residential Development Rate: 1 dwelling unit per 13 acres Preservation Rate: 88.6% Density Reduction: 83.3% Cumulative Summary from April 1,2004 on Residential Subdivision Rate: 1 building lot per 15 acres Residential Development Rate: 1 dwelling unit per 30 acres Preservation Rate: 94% Density Reduction: 92% Target Area Summary as of December 31,2024 Zone R-40 R-80 AC Total Target acreage as of 4/l/2004 450 2357 4995 7802 Acrea e develo cd since 4/1/2004 17 56 58 131 Acreage preserved since 4/l/2004 59 703 1884 2646 Target acreage still available for development 1 3741 1598 3053 5025 Page 1 of 6 i Town of Southold Land Tracking Summary for the 4"Quarter of 2024 October 1,2024 through December 31,2024 Prepared January 14,2025 Introduction Information in this report is based on final approvals for subdivisions, building permits, land closings and variances. Projects that involve both preservation and Planning approvals for non-subdividable lots will not be tracked until both components of the projects are complete. A cumulative summary covering all activity from April 1, 2004 onward is included in this report. Acres of Subdividable Buildable Land that is considered the Town's target as of April 1, 2004:. R-40 .........450 R-80.......2357 AC..........4995 These acreages are estimates based on the Town's GIS database as of April 1, 2004 and represent the subdividable buildable land in the R-40, R-80 and AC zoning districts. These numbers will change over time as additional information about individual parcels becomes available. The numbers will also change due to future rezonings approved by the Town Board and conversion of target land to/from Community Facilities (e.g. schools). Unbuildable land includes wetlands, rights of way, Coastal Erosion Hazard areas, land developed residentially prior to April 1, 2004, preserved land, beaches, etc. and is not included in the acreages above based on the best information currently available. Future tracking reports will note changes to the numbers presented above. The numbers presented above do not match those included in the 2003 DGEIS due to corrections made to the DGEIS work. For parcels that are split between both AC & R-80 zoning the parcels were assumed to be completely within the larger of the two areas for calculating the numbers above. To be subdividable a parcel must contain at least twice the minimum zoning acreage of buildable land. All numbers presented below are based on Town-wide activity excluding Fishers Island. The AC target area was reduced by 2.21 acres to account for existing residential development that existed prior to 4/l/2004 but was missing from the Town's GIS database. Definitions Density Rcducti011 Preservation Preservation of buildable land that contributes to density reduction, for example development rights purchases. 1 0n d nsi. ywwReduction Preservation: Preservation of buildable land that does not contribute to density reduction, for example clustered open space created through the subdivision process. l cgrrsit redrrcticra r a n m12r rvation, Land that contributed to density reduction but that is not considered preserved, for example certain covenants and restrictions. E gil; The acreage of preservation is calculated as the sum of Density Reduction Preservation and Non-density Reduction Preservation. Residential Subdivision Rate. The residential subdivision rate is calculated as Number Of Non- Subdividable Buildable Residential Parcels Created divided by the sum of Acreage Of Non- Subdividable Buildable Residential Parcels Created and Acreage Of Preservation and Density Page 2 of 6 Reduction Non-Preservation. Acreage Of Non-Subdividable Buildable Residential Parcels Created will also include ROW and recharge areas created through the subdivision process. The Number Of Non- Subdividable Buildable Residential Parcels Created includes those created by both the Planning Board and the ZBA. Only ZBA approvals that create new parcels compared to the Town Assessors' records as of April 1, 2004 will be included in the numbers above. Further subdividable parcels will not be tracked until they become non-subdividable or preserved. Residential Development Rate_ The residential development rate is calculated as Number Of New Reside ntial Building Units Issued Permits divided by the sum of Acreage Of New Residential Building Units Issued Permits and Acreage Of Preservation and Density Reduction Non-Preservation. Note that the Number Of New Residential Building Units Issued Permits may not equal the number of new residential building permits actually issued in cases where permits for multiple family dwellings are issued. Building permits issued on subdividable parcels will be included in this number with the developed acreage being equal to the minimum zoning acreage. Should this development end up as part of a subdivision where it is clustered to a smaller parcel or within a defined building envelope then the parcel or envelope size will be considered the developed acreage and the numbers above will be adjusted. Renewal, accessory, remodeling, etc. building permits are not included above. Preservation Rite: The preservation rate is calculated as Acreage Of Preservation divided by the sum of Acreage Of Preservation and Acreage Of New Residential Building Units Issued Permits and Density Reduction Non-Preservation. Density R_gductiorr. The density reduction is calculated as the difference of Number Of New Residential Building Units Allowed By Zoning and Number Of New Residential Building Units Issued Permits divided by Number Of New Residential Building Units Allowed By Zoning. The Number Of New Residential Building Units Allowed By Zoning is calculated as the sum of Density Reduction Preservation And Density Reduction Non-Preservation multiplied by the subdivision factor from the 2020 Comp Plan update plus the Number Of New Residential Building Units Issued Permits. The factors for the Density Reduction calculation are as follows: _.Subdivision F. _ � .... actors Zone Crea. .....

Page 3 of 6 Tracking Statistics for the period October 1,2024 through December 31,2024 For the following numbers the Target acreage is the buildable subdividable land in the R-40, R-80 &AC zones. Non-target acreage is anything in other zoning districts, non-subdividable land in the R-40, R-80 & AC zones and unbuildable land.
