Re Request for Waiver of Park & Playground Fee
Residential Site Plan for Vineyard View
62600 CR 48, ±1,600' nlelo Chapel Lane & CR 48, Greenport
SCTM##1000-40.-3--1 Zoning District: Hamlet Density -- HD
The Planning Beard has reviewed the request to waive the Park and Playground Fee in
the amount of$343,000.00 for the Residential Site Plan for Vineyard View as
established by the Planning Board pursuant to Town Code § 240-53. Reservation of
parkland"on subdivision plats containing residential units.
A partial waiver and deferment is supported by the Planning Board as follows:
1. The proposal is for 50 housing units that will remain "affordable" for a term of fifty
years. After the fifty years, 25 units could transition to market rate rentals. To
meet the purpose of the Town's affordable housing goals, it is recommended that
the fee be waived for the 25 units that are to remain as "affordable" in perpetuity.
This is consistent with the Town Code for the Affordable Housing District (AHD)
Zoning District, where the Park and Playground fee is automatically waived as an
incentive to lower development costs for affordable housing. This application, for
the 25 units to remain affordable in perpetuity, meets or exceeds the affordability
requirements of the AHD District.
2. For each of the 25 units that may transition to market rate after 50 years, the fee
is recommended to be deferred for payment if and when they transition.
Please contact the Planning Department with any questions.,
