I I I I I I Ie I I Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Scott Property 1.0 SUMMARY The subject property has been inspected and reviewed independently by Nelson, Pope & Voorhis, LLC in order determine if potential environmental or public health concerns are present. This report is intended to identify Recognized Environmental Conditions (as defined in ASTM Standards on Environmental Site Assessments for Commercial Real Estate) on the subject property based on the four (4) basic components of a Full Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA): records review, site reconnaissance, interviews and evaluation and reporting. The subject property lies in the Hamlet of Cutchogue, Town of Southold, County of Suffolk, New York. The overall property is a 45.7-acre parcel of agricultural land with a single-family dwelling and a barn. This report addresses approximately 9.0 acres of vacant agricultural land within the 45.7 acres located approximately 1,300 feet northwest of Main Road (SR 25) and 1,300 feet northeast of Depot Lane. The property is more particularly described as Suffolk County Tax Map # 1000-102-02-p/o 23.4. The subject parcel is presently covered with low grasses. An inspection of the approximately 9.0 acres which comprise the subject property did not reveal any dumping or debris, staining, residue, odors, or stressed vegetation. Several pieces of farm equipment and debris were observed in the vicinity of the southeastern portion on the property. This area is behind greenhouses and may belong to Pinewood Perennial Gardens, which is adjacent to the subject property. Aerial photographs from 1961, 1969, 1976, 1980, and 1994 were reviewed. The aerials identify the subject property as farmland throughout this period. An extensive government records search found no potential sources of environmental degradation on the subject property. One (l) State documented closed spill incidents was noted in the vicinity of the subject property. This closed spill incident is located approximately one- half (0.5) mile to the north and is not expected to adversely impact the subject property. In conclusion, this assessment has revealed no evidence of recognized environmental conditions in connection with the subject property, subject to the methodology and limitations of this report. However, the following recommendations are provided: 1. The farm equipment and debris located near the southeastern property line should be removed and properly disposed of if it is located within the subject property. ~CM ..POWiir NELSON. POPE .s.

I have nothing else in the file for this one. . . . September 9, 2003 Southold Town Board-Public Hearing 2 MELISSA SPIRO, LAND PRESERVATION COORDINATOR: As noted, this hearing is for the purchase of development rights on approximately 9 acres of the Scott proPerty in Cutchogue. In 200 I, the town worked with the Scott's and purchased a development rights easement on 23 acres of the 43 acre farm. This left approximately 20 acres on which the development rights remained intact. Earlier this year Sandra Scott approached the Preservation Committee with a proposal to sell an additional 9 acres of development rights to the Town. Sandra Scott is also before the Planning Board to subdivide the existing 23 acres with the development rights already sold to the town from the remaining 20 acres. The 9 acres are adjacent to the existing land on which the development rights are sold. There is currently an existing dwelling and accessory structures towards the Main Road side of the property. The area with these structures and the Main Road frontage are not part of the current development rights purchase. The property is located within the AC Zoning District. It is included in the Town's Community Preservation Plan and it is shown as farmland on the Town's Farm and Farmland Protection Strategy. In addition to the prior purchase of the development rights from the Scott Farm, the Town owns the development rights on the properties to the east and to the west of the northerly part of the Scott farm. The purchase price of $23,000 per acre is supported by an appraisal. Both the Land Preservation Committee and I support this development rights acquisition, and reco;nmend that the Town Board proceed with the acquisition. Sandra Scott is not here tonight, but I would like to thank her family for offering the development rights to the town on this significant piece of farmland, which increases a nice block of farmland in the Cutchogue area. Thanks. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank you, Melissa. Would anyone else care to address the Board on this public hearing. BUD P APISH: My name is Bud Papish, we have been in Southold for quite a while. In fact, on Boisseau Avenue we had a potato house that is now the Suffolk County Waf'.;r Authority building. I live in Mattituck on Ole Jule Lane for the last 50 years, I guess and before thd I had a tractor business on Sound Avenue right where the four-lane highway starts. I have a few complaints, this is the first time I have ever been here. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Sir, is this, if I could just ask you quickly, is this about the public hearing that we are in the midst of? Specific to this land acquisition? MR. PAPISH: I don't know; I am new to this. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Well, let me, if you don't mind because I certainly want you to get your thoughts across... MR. PAPISH: I got thrown out of here once. SUPERVISOR HORTON: I won't throw you out, as long as you don't throw me off the bench here right now. Would anyone else care to address the Board on this public hearing in relation to this land preservation initiative" (No response) Any comments from the Board? (No response) MR. PAPISH: I think it is a good deal. . . . September 9, 2003 Southold Town Board-Public Hearing 3 SUPERVISOR HORTON: There you go, now you are in the public hearing.
