Affordable Housing Not easy enough to do affordable housing Affordable Housing Rent control? Difficult to get funding from banks if rent controlled project Affordable Housing Expand Hamlet Mixed Use II to the outskirts of village on Rt. 25 Affordable Housing 12 per acre is too much density (community housing overlay) Affordable Housing New construction should be hooked up to sewer Affordable Housing Increase upzoning for commerce/industrial districts + hamlet Affordable Housing Can trailers be used for housing farm workers or anyone Affordable Housing Farm workers housing should have setbacks Affordable Housing Add Tiny House in code Affordable Housing Old Drive-in parcel on Chapel Lane & Rt. 25 - 30 acres - has sewer, could be well screened. Could provide significant # of apartments, make available only to people how live in the school district - keep local families together and incorporate some free market pricing. 150 units proposed. No neighbor = not distracting from character of area Economic Development Don't take away uses from parcels - keep uses the same for business zones Community Character Too many small zones, spot zones Community Character Transition zone doesn't seem like appropriate change Community Character Consider making T zone there a preserved area Community Character Trains, bikes: decrease traffic + air quality Community Character Traffic — N. Rd + Main Rd. Community Character Please zone gas station as it's meant to be zoned (oldest standing in the area) Community Character If Chapel Lane — 30 acres — does get developed, keep natural landscape Community Character Much larger setbacks than proposed for new development on Route 25 and Route 48 -preserve scenic views. Community Character Require sidewalks on Route 25 and Route 48 Community Character In all zones, 3rd floors should be set back 10 ft from 2nd floor on street-facing side Economic Development Wineries create a strangle-hold on businesses farther east - businesses in Grenport experiencing a lull in the shoulder season/ fall. Map Rezone campground west of Moores Lane from RL to R80 due to woods and adjacent wetlands - liberally permit pre-existing nonconforming use. Southold Town Zoning Update Forum - Greenport Hamlet Focus Map Rezone parcel where LIPA and Village of Greenport power distribution systems meet (west of Silvermere Rd, north of Route 25), from RB-11 to R80. Map Uses that have been there a long time should have zoning that supports that use. Map south of 25, just west of Village line - make it easier to re-separate those lots (the ones that have merged).

Natural Resources If marina + aquaculture expanded Natural Resources Housing on MII without sewer — going backwards Natural Resources Differentiation between traditional fields + farmhouse and wineries + mix-use agri- tourism - Health Dept. oversight?
