""'_L(r~~ Apn120,2007 The Town Board of the Town of South old in the County of Suffolk, New York Ladies and Gentlemen: We have examined a record of proceedings relating to the issuance of the $579,000 Bond Anticipation Note for Various Purposes-2007 of the Town of Southold, in the County of Suffolk, a municipal corporation of the State of New York. Said Note is dated April 20, 2007, matures April 18, 2008, is numbered 4R-l, bears interest at the rate of three and seventy-five hundredths per centum (3.75%) per annum, payable at maturity, is of the denomination of $579,000, is payable to the registered owner, is issued pursuant to the provisions of the Local Finance Law, constituting Chapter 33-a of the Consolidated Laws of the State of New York, four bond resolutions adopted by the Town Board on their respective dates, authorizing the issuance of serial bonds for various purposes in and for the Town, and the Certificate of Determination executed by the Supervisor as of Apri120, 2007. Said bond anticipation note is a temporary obligation issued in anticipation of the sale of permanent serial bonds. The Note is issued only in fully registered form, in the name of Cede & Co., as Noteowner and nominee for The Depository Trust Company, an automated depository for securities and clearing house for securities transactions. Purchases of ownership interests in the Note will be made in book-entry form, in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof. In our opinion, the Note is a valid and legally binding general obligation of the Town for which the Town has validly pledged its faith and credit and, unless paid from other sources, all the taxable real property within the Town is subject to the levy of ad valorem real estate taxes to pay the Note and interest thereon without limitation of rate or amount. The enforceability of rights or remedies with respect to such Note may be limited by baI1kr4ptcy, insolvency, or other laws affecting creditors' rights or remedies heretofore or hereafter enacted. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), establishes certain requirements that must be met subsequent to the issuance and delivery of the Note in order that interest on the Note be and remain excludable from gross income under Section 103 of the Code. The Town Supervisor, in executing the Arbitrage and Use of Proceeds Certificate, has certified to the effect that the Town will comply with the provisions and procedures set forth therein and that it will do and perform all acts and things necessary or desirable to assure that interest paid on the Note is excludable from gross income under Section 103 of the Code. We have examined such Arbitrage and Use of Proceeds Certificate of the Town delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Note, and in our opinion, such certificate contains provisions and procedures under which such requirements can be met. In our opinion, under existing statutes and court decisions, (i) interest on the Note is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section !O3 of the Code, and (ii) interest on the Note is not treated as a preference item in calculating the alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations under the Code; such interest, however, is included in the adjusted current earnings of certain corporations for purposes of calculating the alternative minimum tax imposed on such corporations. In rendering the opinion in this paragraph, we have (i) relied on the representations, certifications of fact, and statements of reasonable expectations made by the Town in the Arbitrage and Use of Proceeds Certificate and other documents in connection with the Note, and (ii) assumed compliance by the Town with certain provisions and procedures set forth in the Arbitrage and Use of Proceeds Certificate relating to compliance with applicable requirements of the Code to assure the exclusion of interest on the Note from gross income under Section !O3 ofthe Code. Further, in our opinion, under existing statutes, interest on the Note is exempt from personal income taxes of New York State and its political subdivisions, including The City of New York. Except as stated above, we express no opinion regarding any other federal or state tax consequences with respect to the Note. We render our opinion under existing statutes and court decisions as of the issue date, and we assume no obligation to update our opinion after the issue date to reflect any future action, fact or circumstance, or change in law or interpretation, or otherwise. We express no opinion on the effect of any action hereafter taken or not taken in reliance upon an opinion of other counsel on the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Note, or on the exemption from state and local tax law of interest on the Note. Other than such record of proceedings, we have not been requested to examine or review and have not examined or reviewed the accuracy or sufficiency of any additional proceedings, reports, correspondence, financial statements or other documents, containing financial or other information relative to the Town, which have been or may hereafter be furnished or disclosed to purchasers of said Note, and we express no opinion with respect to any such financial or other information or the accuracy or sufficiency thereof. We have examined the only executed Note of said issue and, in our opinion, the form of said Note and its execution are regular and proper.

ARBITRAGE AND USE OF PROCEEDS CERTIFICATE I, Scott A. Russell, Supervisor of the Town of South old, in the County of Suffolk, New York (the "Issuer"), HEREBY CERTIFY and reasonably expect with respect to the Issuer's $579,000 Bond Anticipation Note for Various Purposes-2007 (hereinafter referred to as the "Note" or "Notes"), dated and issued on April 20, 2007, as follows: Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, all capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Article II hereof or in the Resolutions, the Code or the Regulations (each as defined below). ARTICLE I GENERAL 1.1. Authoritv of Signatorv. I am an officer of the Issuer charged with the responsibility for the execution, delivery, and issuance of the Notes and am acting for and on behalf of the Issuer in signing this Arbitrage and Use of Proceeds Certificate (the "Certificate"). 1.2. Description of Notes. The Issuer represents that the Notes are sold at the aggregate Issue Price and are further described as set forth in the Certificate of Determination of the Issuer. 1.3. Purpose of Certificate. This Certificate is made for the purpose of establishing evidence of the expectations of the Issuer as of the Issue Date as to future events regarding the amount and use of proceeds of the Notes. It is intended and may be relied upon for purposes of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code, and as a certification described in Section 1.148-2(b)(2) of the Regulations. This Certificate is executed and delivered as part of the record of proceedings in connection with the issuance of the Notes. The provisions of this Certificate constitute a contractual obligation of the Issuer in consideration for the purchase of and payment for the Notes by the purchaser(s) thereof. 1.4. No Hedge Bonds. The Issuer reasonably expects that 85% of the Spendable Proceeds of the Notes will be expended for governmental purposes within 3 years of the Issue Date. In addition, not more than 50% of the Proceeds of the Notes are being invested in investments not acquired to carry out the governmental purposes of the issue at a guaranteed yield for 4 years or more. 1.5. Governmental Pumose. With respect to the Prior Issue, the Issuer reasonably expected as of the issue date of the Prior Issue that 85% of the spendable proceeds of the Prior Issue would be expended for governmental purposes within 3 years of such issue date, and, in addition, not more than 50% of the proceeds of the Prior Issue were invested in investments not acquired to carry out the governmental purposes of the issue at a guaranteed yield for 4 years or more. 1.6. Reasonable Expectations. This Certificate sets forth the facts, estimates and circumstances now in existence which form the basis for the Issuer's expectation that the 520839.1030514 CERT . proceeds of the Notes will not be used in a manner that would cause the Notes to be Arbitrage Bonds under Section 148 of the Code or Private Activity Bonds under Sections 103 and 141 of the Code. To the best of my knowledge and belief, such expectation is reasonable and there are no other facts, estimates or circumstances that would materially change that expectation. 1.7. Composite Issue. With the exception of the $14,650,000 Public Improvement Serial Bonds-2007 of the Issuer, no other tax-exempt governmental obligations have been sold fewer than 15 days prior to, or will be sold fewer than 15 days after, the sale date of the Notes, pursuant to the same plan of financing which are expected to be paid from substantially the same source of funds as the Notes. 1.8. Registration. The Notes will be issued in registered form. 1.9. No Federal Guarantee. The Issuer represents and covenants that, except for the gross proceeds of the Notes which are: (a) invested during the temporary period referred to in Article III, (b) held in any refunding escrow or (c) invested in obligations of the United States Treasury or in obligations issued pursuant to Section 21B( d)(3) of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act, as amended by Section 511(a) of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, or any successor provision to Section 21B(d)(3) of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act, as amended: (i) No portion of the payment of principal or interest with respect to the Notes is or will be guaranteed directly or indirectly by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof (in this Certificate "federally guaranteed"); and (ii) No portion of the Gross Proceeds of the Notes in excess of five percent of such Gross Proceeds is or will be (A) used in making loans the payment of principal or interest with respect to which is to be federally guaranteed, or (B) invested directly or indirectly in federally insured deposits or accounts. 1.10. Tax Representation. The Issuer expects to be able to and will comply with all the procedures and provisions set forth in this Certificate, and will do and perform all acts and things necessary and desirable within its reasonable control in order to assure that interest paid on the Notes will be excluded from gross income of the owners of the Notes for the purpose of federal income taxation. 1.11. Noncompliance. The Issuer shall perform each of the obligations undertaken by it in this Certificate unless, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel, noncompliance with such obligations will not cause interest on the Notes to be included in gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation. 1.12. Reliance by Bond Counsel. The representations of the Issuer expressed in this Certificate may be relied upon by Bond Counsel in connection with the rendering of any opinion with respect to the Notes. 520839.1030514 CERT , 1.13. IRS Form 8038-G. The Issuer will file IRS Form 8038-G, included as part of the record of proceedings for the issuance of the Notes, by the 15th day of the second month after the calendar quarter in which the Notes are issued. ARTICLE II USE OF PROJECT AND PROCEEDS 2.1. Authorization. (a) The Notes are authorized to be issued pursuant to applicable provisions of the laws of the State of New York and four bond resolutions duly adopted by the Town Board on their respective dates (the "Resolutions"), as referred to in the Certificate of Determination executed by the Supervisor as of April 20, 2007. (b) For purposes of this Article II, the term "Original Proceeds" means the Sale Proceeds received (or deemed to be received) by the Issuer from the sale of the Notes net of the amount used or to be used for the payment of all costs and expenses associated with issuing the Notes, and excluding accrued interest. 2.2. Purpose of Issue. The Notes are being issued for various projects in and for the Town, including certain projects which have been previously financed by the issuance of bond anticipation notes (the "Prior Project") and various projects for which the Notes will provide original financing (the "New Project"). 2.3. Use of Proceeds. (a) The Issuer is receiving on the Issue Date $579,000, which is the purchase price paid by the underwriter of the Note. The difference, if any, between the Issue Price of the Notes and the purchase price paid by the underwriters represents the underwriting discount retained by the underwriters. (b) The amount of the premium and the accrued interest will be used to pay cost of issuance of the Notes and debt service on the Notes. A portion of the proceeds of sale of the Note in the amount of $101,000 (the "Current Refunding Notes"), together with $108,000 in funds available therefor, will be used to redeem a like amount of bond anticipation notes which mature on April 20, 2007 (the "Prior Issue"), heretofore issued to finance the Prior Project. The balance of the proceeds of the sale of the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $478,000 (the "New Money Notes") will be used to provide original financing for the New Project. The Prior Project and the New Project are collectively referred to herein as the "Project." 2.4. Ownership/Lease/Sale. The Project will be owned by the Issuer and will not be leased to any person who is not a state or local goverrunental unit. It will not be sold or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, except for incidental sales of surplus items the proceeds of which will not constitute net operating profits or net capital profits to the Issuer, prior to the last maturity date of the Notes. 2.5. Private Loans. Not more than the lesser of 5 percent or $5,000,000 of the Proceeds of the Notes will be used directly or indirectly to make loans to persons other than a state or local goverrunental unit. 520839.] 030514 CERT 2.6. Private Use. Either (a) the aggregate amount of the Proceeds of the Notes used directly or indirectly in a trade or business carried on by a person other than a state or local governmental unit ("Private Use") will not exceed 10% of such Proceeds or (b) not more than 10% of the principal and interest due on the Notes during the term of the Notes, under the terms of the Notes or any underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, (i) will be secured by any interest in property used or to be used for a Private Use or in payments in respect of property used or to be used for a Private Use, or (ii) will be derived from payments, whether or not to the Issuer, in respect of property or borrowed money used or to be used for a Private Use. 2.7. UmelatedlRelated Disproportionate Use. None of the Proceeds of the Notes will be used directly or indirectly in the trade or business of a person other than a state or local governmental unit that is umelated or related and disproportionate to the governmental use of the property being financed, including any private loan financing described in Section 2.5 above which meets this test. For purposes of this Certificate, Proceeds of the Notes are allocable to an umelated Private Use if such use is neither directly nor operationally related to a governmental use and Proceeds of the Notes are allocable to a disproportionate related Private Use to the extent that the Proceeds of the Notes which are to be used to finance property used by a person other than a state or local governmental unit in a trade or business which is related to the governmental use of the property referred to in Section 2.6 above, exceeds the Proceeds of the Notes which are to be used for the governmental use to which such Private Use relates. 2.8. Private Use Defined. For purposes of Sections 2.6 and 2.7 above, unless otherwise provided in this Certificate, a Private Use consists of any contract or other arrangement including, without limitation, leases, management contracts, guarantee contracts, take or pay contracts, or put or pay contracts, which provides for a use of the Project or any portion of the Project by a person or persons who are not state or local governmental units on a basis different than the general public. The Issuer has not and will not enter into any such contract or arrangement without first consulting with Bond Counsel. 2.9. Reimbursement. Proceeds of the Notes used to reimburse the Issuer for amounts expended in anticipation of the issuance of the Notes are considered expended on the date of the reimbursement but only if (i) a declaration of intent to reimburse such expenditure is made prior to or within 60 days after the date of the original expenditure (except for certain preliminary expenditures described in Section 1.150-2(f)(2)) of the Regulations), and (ii) the reimbursement is made within 18 months of the later of the placed-in-service date of the Project or the date of the original expenditure (but in no event more than three years after the original expenditure was paid). The expenditures to be reimbursed are Capital Expenditures. The Issuer will not use any Proceeds of the Notes for any reimbursement purpose that does not otherwise qualify as an expenditure pursuant to Section 1.150-2 of the Regulations or prior law, as applicable. ARTICLE III ARBITRAGE 3.1. Temporary Period-Refunding. With respect to the Current Refunding Notes and the Prior Issue: 520839.1030514 CERT (a) All of the proceeds of the Prior Issue have been expended, or any such proceeds which have not been expended will be treated as Transferred Proceeds of the Current Refunding Notes as of the date the Prior Issue is redeemed. Such Transferred Proceeds may be invested without restriction as to Yield until three years after the date of original issuance of the Prior Issue. If any Transferred Proceeds remain unexpended after three years after the date of original issuance of the Prior Issue, such proceeds will be invested at a Yield not in excess of the Yield on the Notes. (b) All or a portion of the Proceeds of the Current Refunding Notes will be used to refund the Prior Issue within 90 days of the Issue Date. Such Proceeds and any related Investment Proceeds may be invested during such time without restriction as to Yield. The balance, if any, of the Proceeds of the Current Refunding Notes will be used to pay costs of issuance of the Current Refunding Notes. Such Proceed and any related Investment Proceeds may be invested for a period of thirteen months after the Issue Date without restriction as to Yield. 3.2. Temporarv Period-New Monev. With respect to the New Money Notes: (a) The Issuer has entered into or will enter into within six months from the Issue Date, binding commitment(s) for the acquisition, construction or accomplishment of the New Project, and the amount of such commitment(s) with respect to the New Project will or do exceed the amount equal to 5% ofthe Sale Proceeds ofthe New Money Notes. (b) In the event the New Project has not been completed, work on the acquisition, construction or accomplishment of the New Project will proceed or is proceeding with due diligence to completion and the Sales Proceeds of the New Money Notes will be expended with due diligence. ( c) The Issuer reasonably expects that at least 85% of the Sale Proceeds of the New Money Notes will be expended within three years from the Issue Date. (d) The Sale Proceeds and Investment Proceeds ofthe New Money Notes may be invested without restriction as to Yield for a temporary period of three years from the Issue Date, subject to the rebate requirements, if any, set forth in Article IV ofthis Certificate. 3.3. No Overissuance. The Sale Proceeds of the Notes do not exceed the total cost ofthe New Project, the amount required to refund the Prior Issue and the amount required to pay costs of issuance of the Notes. 3.4. Source of Repavrnent Funds. The Notes will be paid from taxes and other revenues of the Issuer. 3.5. Debt Service Fund. The taxes and revenues used to pay principal and interest on the Notes, whether or not deposited in a debt service fund (the "Debt Service Fund"), will be expended within 13 months of the date of deposit in such fund, or the date of their accumulation, in the payment of debt service on the Notes. Any amounts received from the investment of such deposit or accumulation will be expended within one year of receipt. The 520839.1030514 CERT Debt Service Fund, if any, will be used to achieve a proper matching of revenues and debt service and will be depleted at least annually except for a reasonable carryover amount which will not exceed the greater of the earnings on such fund for the immediately preceding Bond Year or one-twelfth of the debt service on the Notes for the immediately preceding Bond Year. 3.6. Sinking Funds. Except for the Debt Service Fund described in Section 3.5 above, the Issuer has not created or established, and does not expect to create or establish, any sinking fund, debt service reserve fund or other similar fund which the Issuer reasonably expects to use to pay principal or interest on the Notes. 3.7. Universal Cap. On each Valuation Date, the Issuer will value the Universal Cap and the Nonpurpose Investments allocable to the Notes under the Universal Cap. Nonpurpose Investments in a bona fide debt service fund such as the Debt Service Fund described in Section 3.5 above do not reduce the aggregate value of Nonpurpose Investments that may be allocated to the Notes under the Universal Cap. Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the Notes to the extent such Nonpurpose Investments have been expended for the govermnental purpose of the Notes, or to the extent the Value of such investments exceeds the value permitted to be allocated to the Notes under the Universal Cap. To the extent Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the Notes and the Value of the Universal Cap exceeds the Value of the remaining Nonpurpose Investment allocated to the Notes, other Nonpurpose Investments may become allocated to the Notes, provided that such Nonpurpose Investments are not already properly allocated to another bond issue and provided that such allocation does not cause the Value of Nonpurpose Investments allocated to the Notes to exceed the Universal Cap. Generally, if Gross Proceeds of the Notes invested in Nonpurpose Investments exceed the Universal Cap on a Valuation Date, such Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the Notes in the following order: (i) amounts allocable to Replacement Proceeds, (ii) amounts allocable to Transferred Proceeds, (iii) amounts allocable to Sale Proceeds and Investment Proceeds of the Notes. Where a Nonpurpose Investment ceases to be allocated to the Notes, such Nonpurpose Investment may be reallocated under the Universal Cap calculated with respect to another bond issue. A Nonpurpose Investment which is reallocated to another bond issue may be valued under the same valuation method pursuant to which it was valued for purposes of applying the Universal Cap with respect to the Notes. Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate to the contrary, the failure to perform the determination of Nonpurpose Investments allocable to the Notes as of a Valuation Date will not be considered a violation of this provision if the Value of Nonpurpose Investments allocated to the Notes did not exceed the Value of the Notes outstanding on such date. 3.8. Yield. When used in this Certificate, the term Yield is computed as described in the Regulations and, in connection with the Notes or any investment acquired with 520839.1 030514 CERT ~""",-_'"---~_._'--~'--+~'~""-."'-"-'-' " the Gross Proceeds of the Notes, refers to the Yield computed by the actuarial or present worth method using a 360-day year and semiannual compounding, and means that discount rate which, when used in computing the Present Value of all payments of principal and interest to be paid on an obligation, produces an amount equal to, in the case of the Notes, the Issue Price of the Notes with certain adjustments as required by the Regulations, and in the case of an Investment, the purchase price of such Investment. The underwriters of the Notes have made certain representations regarding the Issue Price of the Notes, which representations are included as part of the record of legal proceedings relating to the Notes. The Yield on the Notes is as shown in Form 8038-G. The Issuer will not enter into any hedge, contract to sell call right options or other arrangement with respect to the Notes without first consulting with Bond Counsel. 3.9. Yield Reduction Pavrnents. The Issuer may make Yield Reduction Payments, as such term is defined in the Regulations, to the Internal Revenue Service for the purpose of reducing the Yield on investments under certain circumstances. The Issuer will consult with Bond Counsel prior to making any such payments. 3.10. No Replacement Proceeds. The weighted average maturity of the Notes, as set forth in the Form 8038-G, does not exceed 120 percent of the average reasonably expected useful life ofthe Project. 3.11. Investments at Fair Market Value. The Issuer has not entered and will not enter into any transaction to reduce the Yield on the investment of the Gross Proceeds of the Notes in such a manner that the amount to be rebated to the Federal government pursuant to Article IV below is less than it would have been had the transaction been at arm's length and the Yield of the Notes not been relevant to either party to the transaction. All investments of Gross Proceeds ofthe Notes will be made on an arms' length, Fair Market Value basis. ARTICLE IV REBATE 4.1. Rebate Compliance. The Issuer understands that the continued non- inclusion of interest on the Notes for purposes of federal income taxation depends, in part, upon compliance with the arbitrage limitations imposed by Section 148 of the Code, including the rebate requirements described in Sections 4.3 and 4.5 below with respect to the Notes (and the Prior Issue) unless the Issuer complies with Sections 4.2(a) and 4.2(b) below or qualifies for one or more of the rebate exceptions described in Section 4.4 below. 4.2. Rebate Options. With respect to the investment of the Proceeds of the Notes, the Issuer will: (a) invest all Gross Proceeds of the Notes at all times from the Issue Date until expended in Investments not constituting Investment Property for purposes of Section 148 of the Code such as obligations of a state or of a political subdivision of a state, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for purposes of Federal income 520839.1030514 CERT taxation under Section 103 of the Code and is not a preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax imposed by Section 55 ofthe Code, (b) invest all Gross Proceeds of the Notes in obligations having a Yield that does not exceed the Yield on the Notes, or (c) comply with the provisions regarding rebate or qualify for one or more of the exceptions to rebate as described in this Article IV. 4.3. Rebate Requirement for the Notes. Section 148(f) of the Code requires the payment to the United States of the excess of the amount earned on the investment of Gross Proceeds in Nonpurpose Investments over the amount that would have been earned had the amount so invested been invested at a rate equal to the Yield on the Notes, together with any income attributable to such excess. Except as provided in Section 4.4 below, all Gross Proceeds of the Notes are subject to this requirement. In order to meet the rebate requirement of the Code, the Issuer will take the following actions: (a) Record of Investments. The Issuer will record the date of receipt, amount and source of any Gross Proceeds, e.g., Proceeds from the sale of the Notes, loan repayments, investment earnings and Transferred Proceeds. For each Nonpurpose Investment acquired with or allocated to Gross Proceeds of the Notes, the Issuer will record the purchase date or allocation date of such investment, its purchase price (excluding any broker or dealer's commission or discount), or, if not acquired directly with Gross Proceeds, its value on the date the Nonpurpose Investment is allocated to Gross Proceeds, accrued interest due on its purchase date or allocation date, its face amount, its coupon rate, its Yield, the frequency of its interest payment, its disposition price (excluding any broker or dealer's commission or discount), the accrued interest due on its disposition date and its disposition date. In addition, the Issuer will record the date and amount of all expenditures of Gross Proceeds of the Notes, including expenditures for rebate, other than expenditures to acquire Investments. (b) Computation of Rebate Amount. Subject to the special rules set forth in Section 4.4 below, the Issuer will determine the Rebate Amount on each Computation Date. The Rebate Amount as of any Computation Date is the excess of the Future Value of all receipts with respect to Nonpurpose Investments over the Future Value of all payments with respect to the purchase of Nonpurpose Investments or the allocation of such investments to the Gross Proceeds of the Notes, determined as of each Computation Date. To the extent amounts received from Investments are reinvested, these amounts may be netted against each other and not taken into account in the Computation of Rebate Amount. The Issuer will determine the nonpurpose receipts and nonpurpose payments as described below. (i) Receipts. Receipts with respect to Nonpurpose Investments include (A) amounts actually or constructively received from a Nonpurpose Investment (including amounts treated as received from a commingled fund), such as earnings and return of principal; (B) for a Nonpurpose Investment that ceases to be allocated to the Notes before its disposition or redemption date (e.g., an 520839.1 030514 CERT Investment that becomes allocable to transferred proceeds of another issue or that ceases to be allocable to the Notes pursuant to the Universal Cap under Section 1.148-6 of the Regulations) or that ceases to be subj ect to the rebate requirement on a date earlier than its disposition or redemption date (e.g., an investment allocated to a fund initially subject to the rebate requirement but that subsequently qualifies as a bona fide debt service fund), the Value of that Nonpurpose Investment on that date; (C) for a Nonpurpose Investment that is held at the end ofa Computation Period, the Value of that Investment at the end of that period; and (D) any recovery of an overpayment ofrebate. (ii) Payments. Payments with respect to Nonpurpose Investments include: (A) amounts actually or constructively paid to acquire a Nonpurpose Investment (or treated as paid to a commingled fund); (B) for a Nonpurpose Investment that is first allocated to the Notes on a date after it is actually acquired (e.g., an investment that becomes allocable to Transferred Proceeds or to Replacement Proceeds) or that becomes subject to the rebate requirement on a date after it is actually acquired (e.g., an Investment allocated to a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund for a Construction Issue at the end of the 2-year spending period), the Value of that Investment on that date; (C) for a Nonpurpose Investment that was allocated to the Notes at the end of the preceding Computation Period, the Value of that Investment at the beginning of the Computation Period; (D) on the last day of each Bond Year during which there are amounts allocated to Gross Proceeds of the Notes that are subject to the rebate requirement, and on the final maturity date, a Computation Credit of $1,000; (E) Yield Reduction Payments on Nonpurpose Investments made pursuant to Section 1.l48-5(c) of the Regulations; and (F) payments ofrebate amounts when made. 4.4. Exceptions to Rebate Requirement. Notwithstanding anything in Section 4.3 above to the contrary, some or all of the Gross Proceeds of the Notes are not subject to the rebate requirement ifthe conditions described below are satisfied. (a) Exception for Gross Proceeds Entirely Spent Within Six Months. If all of the Gross Proceeds of the New Money Notes or the Current Refunding Notes (other than amounts in the Debt Service Fund and proceeds of the Prior Issue that become Transferred Proceeds of the Current Refunding Notes), as the case may be, including investment earnings received with respect to all funds and accounts established with respect to the Notes except the Debt Service Fund, have been expended for the goverrunental purpose of the New Money Notes or the Current Refunding Notes, as the case may be, within six months (or alternatively with respect to the Gross Proceeds of the New Money Notes, 95% within six months and 100% within one year) after the Issue Date, then the only Nonpurpose Investments to be taken into account in the calculation of the Rebate Amount with respect to the New Money Notes or the Current Refunding Notes, as the case may be, are any Gross Proceeds of the New Money Notes or the Current Refunding Notes, as the case may be, arising after such six months which were not reasonably anticipated as of the Issue Date and proceeds of the Prior Issue that 520839.1030514 CERT become Transferred Proceeds of the Current Refunding Notes unless such Transferred Proceeds qualify for one or more of the rebate exceptions applicable to the Prior Issue. The existence of sinking fund or pledged fund proceeds or the expectation that such proceeds will arise within six months of the Issue Date will make the six-month expenditure exception to rebate inapplicab]e. For purposes of this exception, Gross Proceeds used to pay principal of the Notes are not treated as expended for the governmental purpose of the Notes. (b) Exception for Gross Proceeds Entire]y Spent Within Eighteen Months. If all of the Gross Proceeds of the New Money Notes (other than amounts in the Debt Service Fund), including investment earnings received with respect to all funds and accounts established with respect to the New Money Notes except the Debt Service Fund, have been expended for the governmental purpose of the New Money Notes in accordance with the following schedule measured from the Issue Date: (a) at least ]5 percent within 6 months (the "first spending period"); (b) at least 60 percent within 12 months (the "second spending period"); and (c) ] 00 percent within] 8 months (the "third spending period"); then the only Nonpurpose Investments to be taken into account in the calculation of the Rebate Amount with respect to the New Money Notes are any Gross Proceeds arising after such ] 8 months which were not reasonably anticipated as of the Issue Date. The existence of sinking fund or pledged fund proceeds or the expectation that such proceeds will arise within eighteen months of the Issue Date will make the eighteen-month expenditure exception to rebate inapplicab]e. For purposes of this exception, Gross Proceeds used to pay principal of the Notes are not treated as expended on the governmental purpose of the issue. For purposes of determining compliance with the first two spending periods, the amount of Investment Proceeds included in Gross Proceeds of the New Money Notes is determined based on the Issuer's reasonable expectations on the Issue Date. The spending requirement for the third spending period is, nevertheless, satisfied if the unspent amount is a result of a Reasonab]e Retainage as defined in Section 1.148-7(h) of the Regu]ations as modified by Section ],]48-7(d)(2) of the Regu]ations and such unspent amount is expended within 30 months of the Issue Date. The spending requirement for the third spending period is also, nevertheless, satisfied ifthe Issuer exercises due diligence to complete the New Project and the unspent amount does not exceed the lesser of 3% of the Issue Price of the New Money Notes or an amount equal to the product of $250,000 times the ratio of the Issue Price of the New Money Notes over the Issue Price of the Notes. (c) Exception for Gross Proceeds Entirely Spent Within Twenty-Four Months. The Issuer reasonably expects the New Money Notes to qualify as Construction Bonds because at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Available Construction Proceeds are to be used for expenditures of construction, reconstruction or rehabilitation of property which is owned by the Issuer. If all of the Available Construction Proceeds of the New Money Notes have been expended for the governmental purpose of the New Money Notes in accordance with the following schedule measured from the Issue Date: 10% within 6 months(the "first spending period"), 45% within ]2 months (the "second spending period"), 75% within 18 months (the "third spending period") and ]00% within 24 months (the "fourth spending period"), then no Nonpurpose Investments are to be 520839.1030514 CERT taken into account in the calculation of the Rebate Amount with respect to the New Money Notes. For purposes of this exception, Available Construction Proceeds used to pay principal of bonds are not treated as expended on the governmental purpose of the New Money Notes. For purposes of determining compliance with the first three spending periods, the amount of Investment Proceeds included in Available Construction Proceeds of the New Money Notes is determined based on the Issuer's reasonable expectations on the Issue Date. The spending requirement for the fourth spending period is, nevertheless, satisfied if the unspent amount is a result of a Reasonable Retainage as defined in Section 1.I48-7(h) of the Regulations and such unspent amount is expended within 36 months of the Issue Date. The spending requirement for the fourth spending period is also, nevertheless, satisfied if the Issuer exercises due diligence to complete the New Project and the unspent amount does not exceed the lesser of3% of the Issue Price of the New Money Notes or an amount equal to the product of $250,000 times the ratio of the Issue Price of the New Money Notes over the Issue Price of the Notes. In connection with this rebate exception, the Issuer elects to pay the Rebate Amount calculated for the period starting from the Issue Date in the event of noncompliance with the two (2) year phased expenditure requirement. (d) Debt Service Fund Exception. Ifthe average maturity of the Notes is at least 5 years and the rates of interest do not vary during the term of the Notes, then any amount earned on the Debt Service Fund (including amounts representing accrued interest but excluding amounts representing capitalized interest) will not be taken into account in determining the Rebate Amount. (e) Small Issuer Exception. No Rebate Amount is due with respect to the Notes if the requirements of Section 148(f)(4)(D) of the Code relating to certain small issuers are met. Such requirements can be met if: (i) The Issuer has the power to impose ad valorem taxes on all taxable property within the jurisdiction of the Issuer which, when collected, may be used for the general purposes of the Issuer. The Issuer's exercise of its taxing powers is subject to certain procedural limitations but is not contingent on approval by another governmental entity. (ii) The Issuer reasonably expects, as of the Issue Date, that the aggregate face amount of all tax -exempt bonds issued by it during the current calendar year will not exceed $5,000,000 plus, in the case of financing the construction of public school facilities, an additional amount equal to the lesser of $5,000,000 or so much of the aggregate face amount of bonds as are attributable to such financing (the "small issue size limitation"). For the purpose of the small issue size limitation, (A) Private Activity Notes issued by the Issuer are not taken into account and a current refunding issue, the stated principal amount of which does not exceed the stated principal amount of the refunded bonds paid with proceeds of such refunding issue, is also not taken into account; (B) if an issue has more than a 2% original issue discount or original issue premium, aggregate face amount means the issue price of that issue (determined without regard to pre- 520839.1030514 CERT issuance accrued interest); (C) principal amount means, in reference to a Plain Par Bond, its stated principal amount plus accrued unpaid interest, and in reference to any other bond, its Present Value; (D) bonds issued by certain controlling and controlled entities and subordinate entities are taken into account; and (E) construction includes reconstruction and rehabilitation as provided in Section 142(b)(])(B) of the Code. (iii) With respect to the Current Refunding Notes: (A) the Current Refunding Notes currently refund the Prior Issue; (B) the aggregate face amount of the Current Refunding Notes does not exceed $5,000,000 plus, an additional amount equal to the lesser of $5,000,000 or so much of the aggregate face amount of bonds as are attributable to financing the construction of public schoo] facilities; (C) the Prior Issue met the rebate requirements under Sections] 48(f)(2) and 148(f)(3) of the Code; (D) the Prior Issue had a weighted average maturity of 3 years or less; (E) the maturity date of the Current Refunding Notes, as measured from the original date of issuance of the notes issued pursuant to the Reso]ution, in renewal of which the Current Refunding Notes are being issued, does not exceed 30 years. (iv) The stated principal amount of the New Money Note is $478,000. The stated principal amount of the Current Refunding Notes is $101,000, which does not exceed the stated principal amount of the Prior Issue. The purpose of issuing the Notes is to finance and refinance the construction of the Project. The Issuer does not directly or indirectly control another entity that issues tax-exempt obligations nor does another entity that issues tax-exempt obligations directly or indirectly control the Issuer within the meaning of Section 1.150-1 ( e) of the Regu]ations. There are no entities that issue bonds on behalf of the Issuer. According]y, the Notes qualify for the small issuer exception to the rebate requirement. 4.5. Payment to United States. (a) If the Issuer is required to make a rebate payment to the United States. Unless the Notes are redeemed prior to such time, the Issuer will pay to the United States, not later than 60 days after each Installment Computation Date, an amount which, when added to previous rebate payments made with respect to the Notes, is equal to not less than 90 percent of the Rebate Amount, less the Computation Date Credit. The Issuer will pay to the United States, not later than 60 days after the Notes are fully paid or redeemed, 100 percent of the Rebate Amount, less the Computation Date Credit. If the final rebate payment is made within 60 days after the Fina] Computation Date, interest on the Rebate Amount will be deemed to accrue at the underpayment rate under Section 620] of the Code, beginning on the date the Rebate Amount is due and ending on the date 10 days before it is paid. (b) The Issuer will mail each payment to the appropriate Interna] Revenue Service Center. Each payment shall be accompanied by the copy of the Form 8038- T and the Form 8038-G or 8038-GC filed with respect to the Note issue and a statement identifying the Issuer and the Notes, including the CUSIP number for the Note with the latest maturity for which there is a CUSIP number. 520839.1 030514 CERT 4.6. Recordkeeping. In connection with rebate requirement, the Issuer will maintain the following records: (a) The Issuer will retain records of the determinations made pursuant to Section 4.3 until six years after the retirement of the last obligation ofthe issue. (b) The Issuer will record all amounts paid to the United States pursuant to Section 4.5. 4.7. Rebate Regarding Prior Issues. The Issuer understands that it must make a final rebate accounting and submit a Form 8038- T, if applicable, to the Internal Revenue Service with any required rebate or penalty payments within 60 days of the final redemption date of the Prior Issue with respect to the Prior Issue being refunded with Proceeds of the Current Refunding Notes. (SEAL) IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the corporate seal of the Town of Southold, as of the 2Ollid"Y::t~ ' SupervIsor 520839.\ 030514 CERT ^~".'_'''_-,"._.-. Exhibit A Definitions (This exhibit includes definitions of certain terms which may not be used in the Issuer's Arbitrage and Use of Proceeds Certificate) "Available Construction Proceeds" means the Issue Price of the Construction Bonds (i) plus earnings on the Issue Price and on amounts in any reserve fund not funded from bond proceeds, and earnings on such earnings and (ii) less the amount of the Issue Price representing a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund and costs of issuance funded with proceeds received from the sale of the Notes. For purposes of this definition earnings include earnings on any tax-exempt bond.

"Fair Market Value" of an Investment shall have the following meanings: In General. Except as elsewhere specifically stated below, the Fair Market Value of an Investment is the price at which a willing buyer would purchase the Investment from a willing seller in a bona fide, arm's -length transaction. United States Treasury Obligation. The Fair Market Value of a United States Treasury Obligation that is purchased directly from the United States Treasury is its purchase price. Certificate of Deposit. The Fair Market Value of a certificate of deposit with a fixed interest rate, a fixed payment schedule, and a substantial penalty for early withdrawal is its purchase price provided, the Yield on the certificate of deposit is not less than (i) the Yield on reasonably comparable direct obligations of the United States and (ii) the highest Yield published by the provider and currently available from the provider on reasonably comparable certificates of deposit offered to the public. Guaranteed Investment Contracts. The Fair Market Value of a guaranteed investment contract is its purchase price, provided (i) the Issuer makes a bona fide "~~'~.'- --.,.."....--~--_...~._'".,._~.~,-"'-~_."..,..,,- .. solicitation for such contract and receives at least three bona fide bids from providers with no material interest in the issue; (ii) the Issuer purchases the highest-yielding guaranteed investment contract for which a qualifying bid is made (determined net of broker's fees); (iii) the Yield on such contract (determined net of broker's fees) is not less than the Yield then available from the provider on reasonably comparable investment contracts, if any, offered to other persons from a source of funds other than gross proceeds of tax-exempt bonds; (iv) the determination of the terms of a guaranteed investment contract takes into account as a significant factor the Issuer's reasonably expected drawdown schedule for amounts to be invested, exclusive of float and reserves, (v) the terms of the contract, including collateral security requirements are reasonable, and (vi) the obligor certifies the administrative costs it is paying to third parties in connection with the contract. To the extent that the administrative cost does not exceed the lesser of a reasonable amount based on what would be charged for the same or comparable investment acquired with a source of funds other than Gross Proceeds of tax exempt bonds or the Present Value of annual payments equal to five one-hundredths of one percent (0.05%) of the weighted average amount reasonably expected to be invested each year of the contract, it may be taken into account in determining Yield, with the effect that it will increase the payments for, or decrease the receipts from, Investments. For this purpose, Present Value is to be computed using the taxable discount rate used by the parties to compute the commission or, if not readily ascertainable, a reasonable taxable discount rate. "Final Computation Date" means the day the last Bond that is part of the Bonds is discharged. "Future Value" or "FV" of a payment or receipt means the amount, determined by using the economic accrual method (the method of computing yield based on the compounding of interest at the end of each compounding period), equal to the value of such payment or receipt at the time it is paid or received (or treated as paid or received), plus interest assumed to be eamed and compounded over the period at a rate equal to the yield on the issue, using the same compounding interval and financial conventions used to compute yield.

"Issue Date" means April 20, 2007, the date on which the Notes are delivered to the underwriters and payment of the purchase price of the Notes is received by the Issuer. "Issue Price" when used in connection with an issue of publicly offered obligations (determined separately for obligations included in the issue that are not substantially identical) is the first price at which at least ten percent of each maturity of each series of the obligations are sold to the public. Bond house, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers are not included in the definition of "public" for purposes of the preceding sentence. If the obligations are privately placed, the Issue ~."._c_...,...,__~.,___ Price is the price paid for them by the first buyer. The Issue Price of obligations that are publicly offered in a bona fide public offering is determined on the basis of actual facts and reasonable circumstances existing on the sale date unadjusted for subsequent occurrences.

"Plain Par Note" means a qualified tender bond or a bond that (i) is issued with original issue discount equal to not more than 2 percent ofthe stated redemption price at maturity plus the amount of original issue premium attributable exclusively to underwriters' compensation, (ii) is issued for a price that does not include Pre-Issuance Accrued Interest, (iii) bears interest from the issue date at a single stated fixed rate or is a variable rate obligation under Section 1275 of the Code, in either case, that pays interest unconditionally payable at least .__.... annually, and (iv) has a lowest stated redemption price not less than its outstanding stated principal amount.

The guarantor must not expect to make any payments other than those pursuant to a direct-pay letter of credit or similar arrangement for which the guarantor will be immediately reimbursed. Reasonable procedural or administrative requirements or, in the case of a guarantee against failure to remarket a qualified tender bond, commercially reasonable limitations based on credit risk, will not cause the guarantee to be conditional. The guarantor may not be a co-obligor, nor may the obligor and any related parties combined use more than JO percent of proceeds of the guaranteed portion of the bonds. The guarantee fee must not exceed a reasonable arm's-length charge solely for the transfer ofthe credit risk. A guarantee will not be qualified unless, as of the "..,....._._-_._~_...."'""'.__._~_...- date the guarantee is obtained, the issuer reasonably expects that the present value of all fees for the guarantee will be less than the present value of the expected interest savings on the issue as a result of the guarantee. For this purpose, present value is computed using the yield on the issue, determined with regard to the guarantee fees, as the discount rate. "Rebate Amount" means with respect to the Notes, the amount computed as described in Section 4.3 of the Certificate. "Regulations" means the Income Tax Regulations promulgated under Sections 103 and 141 to 150 of the Code by the Department of the Treasury from time to time, including the Regulations published on June 18, 1993 in the Federal Register, as they may be amended from time to time.

"SLG" means a U.S. Treasury Book Entry Security, State and Local Government Series. "Spendable Proceeds" means sale proceeds, less the portion of those sale proceeds invested in a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund under Section l48(d) of the Code and as part of a minor portion under Section 148( e) of the Code.

"Treasury" means the United States Department of Treasury. "Universal Cap" means the maximum value of Nonpurpose Investments which may be allocated to the Notes and is determined by reference to the Value of all outstanding Notes of the issue. Nonpurpose Investments shall be taken into account as Nonpurpose Receipts at their Value on a Valuation Date. "Valuation Date" means the date on which the value of the Universal Cap and the Nonpurpose Investments allocable to the Notes thereunder are determined. With respect to new money issues, the first Valuation Date shall be the second year anniversary date of the date of issuance of the Notes; thereafter, the first day of each Note Year shall constitute a Valuation Date. With respect to a refunding issue, each date on which proceeds of the refunded issue would become transferred proceeds of the refunding issue, e.g. each date on which principal of the refunded issue is paid with proceeds of the refunding bonds, shall constitute a Valuation Date. In addition, the first date of each Note Year shall also be a Valuation Date. "Value" means, in the case of a Note, the Value of a Note and in the case of an Investment, the Value of an Investment. "Value of a Note" means, in the case of a Plain Par Note, its outstanding stated principal amount, plus accrued unpaid interest or in the case of a Plain Par Note actually redeemed, or treated as redeemed, its stated redemption price on the redemption date plus accrued unpaid interest. In the case of a bond other than a Plain Par Note, the value on a date of such a bond is its Present Value on that date, using the yield on the issue of which the bonds are a part as the discount factor. In determining the Present Value of a variable rate bond, the initial interest rate on the bond established by the index or other rate setting mechanism is used to determine the interest payments on that bond. "Value of an Investment" means, as of any date, unless the Investment is required invested as a restricted yield, for any Investment, Fair Market Value as of that date; for any fixed rate investment, Present Value on that date; and for any Plain Par Investment, the outstanding stated principal amount, plus accrued unpaid interest, as of that date. Yield restricted investments must be valued at Present Value, amounts allocated or that cease to be allocated to an issue must be allocated at Fair Market Value, except in cases in which such Nonpurpose Investments are allocated as a result of the Universal Cap or Transferred Proceeds rules in which case they may be valued at Present Value, and amounts allocated to Transferred Proceeds may not be valued in excess ofthe value used for arbitrage restrictions applicable to the Refunded Issue. "Working Capital Expenditure" means any cost of a type that does not constitute a Capital Expenditure. "Yield" means, as of any Computation Date, that discount rate that, when used in computing the Present Value of (i) all unconditionally payable payments of principal and interest of or on the bonds included in such fixed yield issue, (ii) all unconditionally payable fees for Qualified Guarantees and Qualified Hedges on such bonds and (iii) all fees expected to be paid for Qualified Guarantees and Qualified Hedges, produces an amount equal to the sum of the Present Value of the aggregate Issue Prices of the bonds comprising the issue (determined using the same discount rate used to determine the Present Value of payments for principal, interest and Qualified Hedges and Qualified Guarantees). The Yield is computed as of the issue date of the fixed yield issue by treating each bond included in the issue that is either subject to mandatory or contingent early redemption or to certain optional redemption provisions as being redeemed on its expected early redemption date for an amount equal to its Value on that date. If a fixed yield bond (i) is subject to optional redemptions within 5 years of its issue date and the Yield not taking into account the optional redemption is more than 1/8 of I % above its Yield assuming the early redemption, (ii) is issued at an Issue Price that exceeds the stated redemption price at maturity by more than 1/4 of 1 % multiplied by the product of the stated redemption price to maturity and the number of complete years to the first optional redemption date for the bond, or (iii) bears interest at increasing interest rates, the Yield on the issue including such fixed yield bond is computed by treating the fixed yield bond as redeemed at its stated redemption price on the optional redemption date that produces the lowest Yield on the issue. No adjustment will be made on any Computation Date to the Yield on a fixed yield issue as computed on its issue date unless redemption rights are subsequently transferred to a third party or termination payments are received with respect to Qualified Hedges. The Yield on a fixed yield bond is calculated in the same manner as Yield on a fixed yield issue. . . ELIZABETH A.

SEQR . 617.21 Appendix A State Environmental Qnality Review FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM Pnrpose: The full EAF is desigped to help apj:llicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently., there are aspects of a project that are su5jective or unmeasureable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technically expert in envIronmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concern affecting the question of sIgnIfIcance. The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action. Fnll EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts. Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place 111 Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentially-large impact. The form arso identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced. Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the Impact is actually important. DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE - TYPE 1 AND UNLISTED ACTIONS Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: .K..-Part 1 --K-Part 2 _Part 3 Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts I and 2 and 3 if approRriate), and any other supporting information, and considering both the magnitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the lead agency that: _A. The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared. B. Although the proiect could have a sih'11ificant effect on the environment, there will not be a - significant effect tor this Unlisted ActIOn because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared. * _ C. The project may result in one or more large and important imp'acts that may have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a posItive declaration wIll be prepared. · A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions Grimm!

PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE Responslblllty 0' Lead Agency Ganeralln'ormatlon (Read Carefully) , In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by the question: Have my responses and determinations been roasonablo? The reviewer is not expeclod to be en oxpert environmental analyst. The Examples provided are to assist the roviewer by showing types of Impacts and wherever possible tho threshoid of magnitude that wouid trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the Slate and for most situations. But, for any specific projecl or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3. The Impacts of each project, on each site, in each locality, will vary. Therefore, the examples are iIIustretive and have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question. The number of examples per question does not Indicate the Importance of each queslion. In identifying impacts, consider long term, shorl term and cumulative effects, Inslrvclions (Read carefully) a. Answer each of the 20 questions in PART 2. Answer Vas if there will be any Impact. b. Maybe answers should be considered as Ve. answers. c. If answering Vea to a quesllon then check the appropriate box(column 1 or 2)to indicate the potemial size of the Impact. if impact threshold equels or exceeds any example provided, check column 2. If Impact will occur but threshold is lower than example, check column 1, d. Identifying that an Impact will be pOlentially large (column 2) does nOI mean that II is also necessarily significant. Any large Impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine signincance. Identifying an impact in column 2 simply asks that it be looked at further, e. If reviewer h"" doubt about size of the impact tilen consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3. f. If a potentially large impact checked In column 2 can be mitigated by change(s} in the project 10 a small to moderate impact, also check tile Vas box in column 3. A No response indicates tilat such a reduction is not possible, This must be explained in Part 3. Impact on Land 1. Will tile Proposed Action result in a physlcai change to the project site?

Grim.reet Parking Project, Cutchognc EAF Part I Review NP&V #02280 " 1N'P&1~ ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT REVIEW ENVIRONMENTAL AND PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS GRIFFING STREET PARKING PROJECT@ CUTCHOGUE Prepared for: Greg Yakaboski, Town Attorney Town of South old Town Board, Town Hall 53095 Main Road Southold, New York 11971-0959 Prepared by: Nelson, Pope & Voorhis, LLC 572 Walt Whitman Road Melville, New York 11747 Date: October 7,2002 The Town of Southold Town Board has retained Nelson, Pope & Voorhis, LLC (NP&V) for consulting services in review of the above referenced project. The proposed action involves the construction of a 37,900 SF paved parking area and reconstruction of the parking area along Griffing Street in the Hamlet of Cutchogue. The site is zoned HB - Hamlet Business. The site currently consists of a dirt parking area located to the east of the stores and vacant wooded land located to the north and east of the Post Office. This document analyzes the site and area resources including topography, soils, water, land use, zoning and transportation and other available information. The site has also been inspected for environmentaVplanning constraints. Location and Site Overview The overall project site is 1.45 acres in size and is located on the northeast comer of Main Road (SR 25) and Griffing Street in Cutchogue, Town of Southold, County of Suffolk. The subject property can be more particularly described as SCTM number 1000-102-05-3, plo 4 & 9.6. The site contains a total of 146 feet of frontage on Main Road (SR 25) to the south and 253 feet of frontage along Griffing Street to the west. The southern portion of the site is currently utilized as a dirt parking lot for the retail stores located in the southwest comer of the property. The northern portion of the site which wraps around the north and east sides of the Cutchogue Post Office is vacant wooded undeveloped land. Page 1 . . Griffing Street Parking Project, Cutchogue EAF Part I Review NP&V #02280 Proposed Proiect The proposed action involves the development of the site into a paved parking lot for the adjacent retail stores, and the redesign and construction of additional parking spaces along either side of the initial 150 feet of Griffing Street. Specifically, thirteen (13) new stalls will be created along Griffing Street and seventy-one (71) stalls will be created in a newly paved parking lot around the retail stores and post office. A one-way entrance will be located between the retail stores and the post office and a two-way entrance will be located on the north side of the post office. The existing access to Main Road from the dirt parking lot will be closed and landscaped to beautify Main Road. The proposed parking along the east side of Griffing Street will be head in parking at a 450 angle and the parking along the west side will be parallel parking. The site is zoned HB Hamlet Business, in which a parking lot is permitted. Land Use and Zoning The subject site is zoned HB - Hamlet Business District, which requires a minimum lot size of 20,000 SF, lot coverage of 40% of the lot area, and a minimum 25% landscaped area. Allowed uses within the HB zoning district include retail, office and service uses, public and semi-public uses, as well as hotel and motel and multifamily residential development that will support and enhance mixed-use development and provide a focus for the hamlet area. The project site is located in an area that contains a mix of commercial, institutional, residential, and undeveloped vacant land. The dominant land use to the south, east and west consists of commercial and institutional uses, with residential and vacant undeveloped land located to the north. There are no residential uses adjacent to the project area. In the Cutchogue Hamlet area, all parking is located in the rear of the buildings or on the street. This proposed parking lot would provide adequate parking for the adjacent retail stores as well as for the other retail stores located in the hamlet area and would help to reduce parking congestion on Main Road. The elimination of the existing access onto Main Road will enhance the aesthetics of Main Road as well as reduce the potential for vehicular conflict from exiting vehicles and the traffic along Main Road. HB zoning is located immediately to the north, south and east, with R-40 zoning to the northeast and west. Farther north is HD and R-80 zoning and A-C zoning is present to the south beyond Main Road. Land use in the general area is predominantly commercial, institutional and vacant land, with some residential beyond the retail stores on Main Road. Ecologv and Cultural Resources The site does not contain wetland vegetation or environmentally sensitive features. Additionally, the site does not contain any known historically and ecologically significant resources, although is depicted on the NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (NYS OPRHP) Page 2 ".t . Grimltreet Parking Project, Cntchogne EAF Part I Review NP& V #02280 Circles and Squares Map as being located within or adjacent to an area containing multiple site sensitivity. This review will discuss the proposed project and its potential impact on the sites environmental resources. Traffic Generation The proposed parking lot would not be expected to increase traffic generation as the uses which the parking will serve already exist. As a result, there is no material change in traffic generation predicted upon completion of the project as compared to existing conditions. The parking lot may have benefits in terms of traffic by providing a safe way to relieve traffic from Main Road. Water Resources The elevation of groundwater beneath the subject property is approximately 4 feet above msl, depending on meteorological conditions associated with the water year. The topographic elevation on the subject property is approximately 30 feet. Therefore, the depth to groundwater is approximately 26 feet. The direction of groundwater flow is expected to be toward the nearest surface water south of the site. The depth to groundwater on site is not expected to have significant constraints on the location of the stormwater drainage system. Adequate drainage containment systems must be provided in the newly paved parking area in order to prevent future flood conditions. Soils and Topographv The site is relatively flat throughout, with all existing slopes between approximately 0-10%. The property does not contain any significant landforms or geological features. The Suffolk County Soil Survey (Warner, 1975) identifies two (2) soil types on the subject site, which consists of Riverhead and Haven Soils, graded, 0-8% slopes (RhB) and Haven loam, 0 to 2% slopes (HaA). Riverhead and Haven soils. graded. 0 to 8% slopes (RhB) - This map unit consists of Riverhead sandy loam. of Haven loam, or of both. These areas have been altered by grading for use as housing developments, shopping centers, industrial parks and similar non-farm uses. Haven loam 0-2% slopes (HaA) - This map unit consist of deep, well drained, medium textured soils that formed in a loamy or silty mantle over stratified coarse sand and gravel. Most of these areas are on outwash plains; some are on moraines and generally are on top of low-lying hills. The hazard of erosion is slight and internal drainage is good. Natural fertility is low. The soils of the site will be provide good drainage for the newly installed stormwater leaching pools. Adequate drainage in accordance with Town regulations must be provided in the newly paved parking lot. Page 3 . Grim_reet Parking Project, Cutchogue EAF Part I Review NP&V #02280 ,1 SUMMARY In conclusion, the proposed action involves the construction of an approximately 37,900 SF paved parking area and the redesign and construction of parking along the east and west side of Griffing Street. The site does not appear to contain significant environmental features that would limit future development, provided adequate drainage and containment of on-site runoff are achieved. The construction of this parking lot is expected to alleviate parking concerns and potential traffic problems associated with the downtown area of Cutchogue Village. However, the following recommendations are provided: 1. Adequate drainage facilities should be designed to contain an appropriate volume of stormwater runoff in accordance with Town regulations. 2. The project site is in an area generally occupied by existing uses including parking, roads, a post office and retail stores; however, a portion of the site contains woods and the site is within an area of multiple archaeological site listings (as is most of the north fork). As a result, a cultural resources inventory or site disturbance analysis will be performed prior to physical alteration of the site. The Town Board may consider this information prior to rendering a SEQR Determination of Significance. If these issues are satisfactorily addressed, a Negative Declaration may be appropriate at the Board's discretion. NP&V would be pleased to further review any additional information and/or provide a recommended Determination of Significance. Page 4 . . -~ . . . ELIZABETH A.

SEQR \ 617.21 Appendix A State Environmental Quality Review FULL ENVIRONMENTAL A"SSESSMENT FORM Purl'ose: The full EAF is desigped to help apglicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whefher a project or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a project that are sUDJective or unmeasureable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little or no formal knowledge of the environment or may be technically expert in envIronmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concern affecting the questIOn of SIgnIfIcance. The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination l'rocess has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of mfonnatIon to fit a project or actIOn. Full EAF Components: The full EAF is comprised oftmee parts. Part 1: Provides objective data and informatIOn about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place m Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action. It provides guidance as to whe1her an impact is likely to 'be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentially-large impact. The form arso identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced. I'art 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the Impact is actually important. DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE - TYPE 1 AND UNLISTED ACTIONS Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: X-Part 1 X Part 2 - Part 3 Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts I and 2 and 3 if appropriatek and anf. other supportmg mformatlOn, and consldermg both the magnItude and Importance of eac Impac, It is reasonably determined by the lead agency that: _A. The prorct will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will no have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be prepared. B. Although the proiect could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a - significant effect or this Unlisted ActIon because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.* _ C.
