Mr. Orlowski: Peconic Landing - This application is to amend an approved site plan for construction of 118 single family detached cottages; 132 apartment units; 24 unit assisted living center; and 32 bed skilled care center with supporting amenities. SCTM# 1000-35-I-25. I'll ask now for any comments or presentations on this? Charles Cuddy: I'm Charles Cuddy on behalf of Peconic Landing at Southold, Inc. This is an application that has been before you for a considerable period of time. I know the Board has looked very carefully at it and I just would like to go through with some of the people that are here, some of the fine points of the application. As you know it's a 144 acre site that's properly known as Brecknock Hall and at that site we want to reduce the existing plan from 350 units to, as the Chairman indicated, 250 units, 118 of which are individual dwellings and 132 are apartments. This is a site that lends itself particularly to a life care center and a life care center of course is unique not only to Southold but to Long Island and essentially to the State of New York because there are very few of them. There are two operating right now and there are a few others that are getting approval. But this will be the first on Long Island. We think it's going to be the best on Long Island, by far. This is a site that lends itself to development the way the architects that Scut:hold Town Planning Board 6 August '10, '1998 render it here. And I have several people that would like to talk and bring to both your attention and the audiences attention, what has been done at the site. First, I'm going to ask John Dussling to step up and he is from US Retirement Communities; and then later Howard Young, and later the Architects from Ewing & Cole. I would also point out to you just that we have finally received our certificate of authority from the State of New York, which means that we've been approved by a combination of the Attorney General's office, the Health Department and the Insurance Department. And that's a big step because we now can go into actually marketing these sites. John Dussling: Good evening. I'm John Dussling. I am project coordinator for US Retirement Communities, the developer of Peconic Landing at Southold, continuing care retirement communities for Peconic Landing Board, a non-profit corporation to develop this site. Continuing care retirement community, as Mr. Cuddy said, is a new concept on Long Island specifically and certainly in the State of New York, but the State has amended their rules and regulations to allow these communities, because of the desirability, the need of the way that these communities are received in states that permit them have shown that there is a tremendous demand. And most communities of this type that have been in operation for a period of time have a long waiting list of people desiring to get in. The community wi be established for those who are retired or of retirement age, 65 and older, although the average age at entrance is qormally in the upper 70's and those who've lived in the communities for some time and as the communities mature, the average age of the residents moves up into the Iow 80's. 83-84 years old tends to be the average age of an established community. Our community, as Mr. Cuddy said, wil be built on the 144 acre Brecknock Hall property. We will build the cottages and apartments as Mr. Cuddy explained There will also be a community center in which we will offer services to the residents of the community. There will be a dining room at which they will take 30 meals a month, meals and days of their choosing. There will be recreational facilities. There will be an enclosed swimming pool. There will De a convenience store, a bank; we will Rave provisions for hair care if a local business would like to establish themselves in the community. There's a library for residents, a meeting nail for gathering and for dances and attached to the community center is the health care center. The health care center consists of 26 rooms of enriched housing, as it's termed in the State of New York, which is assisted living which provides assistance for Southold Town Planning Board 7 Augu~ 10,1998 those who need help with one or more of their normal daily functions. They live in a small apartment in the assisted living quarters. There are also 36 rooms of skilled nursing care for those who cannot live independently even with assistance. The number of assisted and skilled rooms that we're building here will be enough to service the residents of this community long into the future. Communities of this type are normally welcomed by the surrounding area of the towns in which they're located and there are a number of reasons. Normally, particularly those communities that are developed by US Retirement, we try to find a site which is large enough so that we can preserve a significant amount of open space and we think we've done that well on this site, and t think you'll see that as the project is presented to you this evening. Of the 144 acres we're using approximately half. The remainder will remain open space and we've allowed considerable open space between the homes and other buildings. Local employment is usually welcomed by the surrounding area. In our project we are planning for 156.8 full time equivalent jobs. How can you have .8 of a job? Well, what that amounts to is really about 180jobs of full time and part time employment, or could be as high as 200. We expect that this project will be one of the largest and hopefully best employers in Southold Town. Volunteers of people who will reside here are retired They have time and they are historically known for providing their services to the greater communities in which they live. There's a great affinity between the elderly and the young and many times with day care centers and schools there can be associations made up. The residents will also volunteer their time to many other local organizations, you'll find. Our community will have minimal, virtually no demands on municipal services. The roads will remain private. The trash collection will be private. Our major buildings are sprinkled, there being little requirement for fire service, and virtually any other municipal service you can think of is scarcely if at all required by retirement communities. Traffic impact is light as has been demonstrated in the information that we've provided from our traffic analysis. The normal retired couple makes two or three trips a day whereas the typical family of four makes nine to eleven trips a day by automobile, and so this has a very light impact. Also, the community provides transportation for the residents. There will be a Southold Town Planning Board 8 August fl O, 1998 shuttle bus to provide them with transportation off site as required. Utilities - we have all of our utilities in place and there was a well installed on the site which was designed to produce 288,000 gallons of water a day, and I believe it is producing that now. But this community will require according to our engineers, tess than (~0,000 gallons, so water usage is light and the subsequent demands on the sewer system are also light. Stormwater drainage - I think as our engineers go through the site you'll see that all of the stormwater generated on the site will be retained on the site and will actually be filtered through a bio-filtration system before it's put back into the ground. Schools - although we're building a lot of homes here and we'll have a lot of residents because of their age there will be absolutely no impact on the local school system. That being said, I will make myself available to you to answer any questions. I'd like to present our architect and our engineer who will review the models and exhibits that we have tonight and they will be available to answer any questions that the Board or the public may have. We also have other experts here for landscaping, for environmental and architectural and engineering. And that being said, I'd like to turn the microphone over to Howard Young, of Young and Young Civil Engineers and Surveyors from Riverhead. I guess we're going to go leap-frog. Mark Hebdin is with the firm of Ewing, Cole, Cherry & Brott, in Philadelphia. Mark is a principal with the firm and will present the thought behind the initial site plan layout. Then Howard Young will follow with the engineering that went into that and then the architects will follow again with the buildings. Thank you. Mark Hebdin: I'm going to give you a brief overview of the site plan and the materials that we have here, the buildings and how they look, and if you have any other questions or would like me to go into any more detail I'd be happy to do so. When we started out with this site we developed a diagram where we diagramed with the yellow arrows you see where the best views are, and again I'll orient you to the entire site. In all of the drawings that I'm going to show you and the models that we have here, Rt. 25 is at the bottom of the drawing or on the model it's pointing towards the doors to the side where the American flag is. And then also, this Long Island Sound is to the top of the drawing and also towards closest to me here on this model. Sour:hold Town Planning Board 9 Augu~ 10,1998 And these yellow arrows indicate the views that we're trying to take advantage of. We also looked at where the sun was setting and rising based on these arrows. We also looked at, with these different shades of green, where the Iightest areas were where down here along Rt. 25 is Brecknock Hall. There's an outparcel next to Brecknock Hall that's not part of the site. That had a manicured lawn space. There was the sand pit that was previously mined in the center of the site and there was also varying areas of these larger areas of lighter green really are showing areas that were lighter vegetation. And then there were the darker green areas where there were treed areas with heavier vegetation. And in taking all these factors into account, including these beautiful high point views off of the bluff and the fact that the Iow point sat down in here where the existing pond or waterway came (inaudible) through the bluff into the site, those factors were all put in together to help us decide that we wanted to really take the most advantage of the site and we wanted to take position in the community center which has most of the community functions and primarily the dining functions and the dally activities for the residents right in the center of the site. This worked well for all of the residents having equal access and shortening the walking distances to the central areas of the site where they would spend a lot of their time. And this also being the greatest view point created a nice central location so that was therefore a result in the placement of the community center in the center of the site. We also then positioned the cottages around on the western edge of the site, again grouping as many as we could with a very Iow density in order to get as many views through to the Long Island Sound and of course grouping them on this side towards the east towards the existing public golf course and wrapping them down along that side so that we would also have views for some of the cottages through the woods to the golf course. And then on either side of the community center on one side, on the eastern side facing towards the golf course, we have the apartment building which was extended here again, as we said earlier there are 132 apartments there n a mixture of two and three stories. And those apartments again were positioned to get the 1oest views of the pond area that breaks in from the bluff from the north and also to give people good views towards the new ponds that we're going to be creating at the entry where you come into the central entry where you come into the community center. To the west connected to the community center, again is the health center which includes as was said earlier, the 36 rooms of skilled care on the first Southold Town Planning Board 10 Augu~ 10,1998 floor which is nursing home type beds; and then the 26 units of assisted living or enriched housing on the second floor. And then this is the site plan that developed from that and again if there's any questions about that, Howard Young will follow and talk in more detail about the drainage issues. Within the center of the site then we talked about the community center and the health center and the apartments and what this larger scale model beyond the site model represents is a blow up of that area to give you a sense of the massing of the buildings. Now again, this is completely showing all of the community center and all of the health center but it's only showing a portion of the apartments because you can see we're really only zeroing in on this area here. They do extend further to get more advantage again of the views towards the pond that comes in from the bluff. And you can see here that the building does transition from a two story to three story. We've minimized the three story as much as possible. You can see the two story elements of the health center again with the skilled nursing on the lower level and the assisted living on the upper level. And then we have some details of the elevation of that just to give you another view. This shows you the front elevation which is facing Rt. 25, which again is facing the wall over there. And this is the rear elevation which faces towards me. Down here a bit further we have elevations of the apartments again which show the transitioning from the two story to the three story and minimizing the three story area. All of the ends of the apartments are all in two story so the building appears to be as Iow amassing as possible. This is a particular view of one of the ends of the apartment buildings. This is another view, looking at the end of one of the apartment buildings again showing how it's only two stories and again when I show you some of the cottages you'll see that we're trying to make the scale of the apartment buildings as they face towards the cottages towards the east towards the golf course, that they sti have the same scale and feeling. And then this is a view of the apartment buildings closer towards Rt. 25 towards the front entry. And again, with these apaFcments arranged the way they are, we feel that they're in a very compatible location on the site. It affords us the ability to be very Iow in density. Again, we had ' 44 acres to develop but we were able to work within only 72 acres. We have the scenic easements that are in the front part of the site around Brecknock Hall. We also were respectful of the scenic easements and the bluff setbacks that we were given on the bluff side towards Long island Sound. Sour:hold Town Planning Board Augu~ 10,1998 The cottages which again were organized mostly along the eastern and western perimeters of the site, there are three models of cottages: They go from about 1400 square feet, 1650 square feet and 1950 square feet and these are the front elevations of the three models. All of the style of the architecture of the apartments and the community center and the cottages we believe are very compatible with the single architectural style that's been very common out here on Long Island. Is there anything that you'd like me to address further, or that I've missed? We could always come back also, if you'd like to hear from Howard Young next. Mr. OrlowskJ: Are those garages on the right hand side? Mr. Hebdin: Yes, they are. Each of the cottages has the same dimension across the front. This allows us to give the flexibility to the residents to decide which cottage they want to place on any site. The garages are also oriented in their dimension so that the garage can be positioned with a door coming into the side of the unit or coming in directly from the front, depending on the site location. (Answering inaudible question) The colors you see here are an approximation of what were looking at. Howard Young: Good evening. I'm Howard Young, of Young and Young. Young and Young was very proud to have been selected to lend our engineering expertise to this project. We received this project (inaudible) it's one of the best thought out projects that i've seen in my lifetime. I'm just going to touch quickly on the engineering, because I think everybody else has mentioned...I don't want to be repetitive. We were challenged, I guess with the grading, drainage, water supply, sewage disposal and some of the other amenities that serve this project. The grading was done in such a way as to minimize the amount of clearing that had to be done and to maximize the views. So the only place where any substantial change in the grade was here, to get a little bit petter views because the bluff was much higher than that land there. The drainage, we have picked up all of the drainage from the site that's been...of all the roadways, driveways, the roof runoff, and conveyed that by storm sewer to this point which was the old sand pit which we have made into a stormwater retention area and further made that into some ponds which will be permanent ponds and which will receive the water and then run the water through vegetation which (inaudible) a bile filter, to remove any of the pollutants in the stormwater runoff. And then that ends up in the last pond here, as the groundwater pond which the water will be recharged back through the groundwater. Southold Town Planning Board 12 Augu~ 10,1998 We looked at, in the process, that we will not affect the wetlands in these two areas here that there will still have enough runoff from the surrounding property to those wetlands. So it should be no change in their habitat. The water supply was from the Suffolk Water Authority, will go throughout the site, public water. We did meet with the local fire department and they selected some fire hydrant locations. We've prepared and have shown a fire lane along the east side of the apartment house. The sanitary sewer we picked up through the whole site and we led the (inaudible) by gravity all the way to a pump house at this location where the sewage will be pumped to the Greenport Sewage Treatment Facility. We've done lighting and some other amenities here and some path system throughout. Again, if there's any questions, I'd be glad to... Mr. Orlowski: After the excavation and regrading will any soil be leaving the site? Mr. Young: As near as we can tell, the site is balanced almost exactly and any excess that we would adjust some grades in here so there won't be anything leaving the site. Right now, mathematically, it's balanced. Mr. Orlowski: Are there any other comments on this site plan? Stanley Shield: Stanley Shield of Mattituck. One gentleman mentioned a well on the site. Mr. Young mentioned the Suffolk Water Authority. Who will be supplying the water for this proJect, basically? Mr. Orlowskh I believe it's Suffolk Water Authority. Mr. Young: This existing well site which was the Oreenport Water Co., which has been acquired now by the Suffolk WaTer Authority, that is a useful well now We are going to get water from the Suffolk County Water Authority. Mr. Shield: One other question Mr. Young. Would you speakto us on the erosion problem down at the bluffs there? How wilt it affect the project? Is there an erosion problem on the bluffs? It seems to me it's disappearing, as a long time resident Mr. Young: didn't know that the erosion here was unique, but we have set the cottages al back in excess of 100 feet from the top of the bluff and we have designed this to make sure that none of our stormwater runoff goes the direction of the bluff and we put in a program of erosion control Southold Town Planning Board Augu~ 10,1998 measures which we will utilize while we're constructing so that this project will not affect the bluff. And I think that the natural phenomena of erosion on the Long Island Sound bluff is something we're not certainly going to add to but something that is happening. Valerie Scopaz: If I could explain further, the State requires that the Town manage 100 feet of property from the mean high tide mark landward. That's a coastal erosion hazard area. When the project sponsors came in we asked them to stay behind that line. In other words, stay more than 100 feet just in case there was ever a problem in the future. So all the units that have been placed are well behind that 100 foot line. Mr. Orlowski: Any other comments or questions? Tom Hamilton: My name is Tom Hamilton. I'm from South Carolina, but I own the lot that's downwind and downstream from the project. I'd like to know what are those seven foot sewage treatment primary things. Are they open to the air? Mr. Young: I didn't hear... Mr. Hamilton: There's a primary sewage treatment (inaudible). Are they open or are they closed? Mr. Young: This is just a pump station to lift the sewage. Mr. Hamilton: No, you show circles, seven foot circles on the map. Mr. Young: They're stormwater drainage. Mr. Hamilton: No, this has nothing to do with stormwater at all. Mr. Young: Do you want to come look at the map. This is stormwater drainage. Mr. Hamilton: That's stormwater. Do you have a separate sewer for the hospital wing? Mr. Young: Yes, a sanitary sewer is what I was talking about. Mr. Hamilton: Is it separate from the stormwater? Mr, Young: Yes. Southold Town Planning Board '14 August '10, '1998 Mr. Hamilton: And is it separate from the hospital? Mr. Young: You have a sanitary sewer from the hospital and a sanitary sewer from the cottages goes to the same place. Mr. Hamilton: But it's not open to the air at anytime? Mr. Young: No. There's no treatment on this site. Mr. Hamilton: OK, thankyou. Mr. Orlowski: Any other comments or questions? Dr. Jay Slotkin: I'm an internest at (inaudible). On not so much the site, but just the concept that this assisted living, such as Peconic, really represents the future of health care. Elderly people, like everyone else, want to live in a homelike situation and this has that and it's obviously a beautiful project. Plus the security of the available services plus sitting on the Eastern Long Island Hospital Board, there are plans to integrate it with the local hospital services such as Eastern Long Island, Peconic Health and other local services, so I really believe, not speaking to the building and so forth, but the concept here, this really represents a wonderful opportunity for the future of Southold Town to be in the forefront of the kind of services that are being developed across the country. New York, for various reasons, has been behind on that and I think one reason for the large number of applications is because New York has been behind the eight ball, but now I think you'll see a lot of other projects like this sprouting across Long Island and other areas of New York. Mr. Orlowski: Any other comments? Charles Cuddy: I wanted to finish up if no one else has a comment, and say two things. There are a number of people here who are people interested in this site because they intend on living there and could be residents of the site. There also are a number of people who have come tonight who represent the Board of Trustees for Peconic Landing, the officers of Peconic Landing. And on behalf of all of them, I'd like to thank...and this is not a typical statement from me necessarily...l'd like to thank the Planning Board very much for their sensitivity, for their concern and for their assistance in moving this project forward. So, thank you. Mr. Orlowski: Anyone else? I must say it's nice to have such a arge turnout and all positive comments. Usually with a large turnout like this we're Southold Town Planning Board 15 August 10, 1998 looking for the back door, so that must be a good sign to start with. Does the Board have any comments or questions? Mr. Ward? (Change tape) Mr. Ward: No. Mr, Orlowski: Mr. Latham? Mr, Latham: I had a small question as far as the buildings. Originally we were shown the siding. Some were going to be wood and some other material. How did that finally work out? The exterior siding, not the roof. Unknown: We have one of the sample boards that was shown to the Architectural Review Committee that shows a sampling of the different sidings if you'd like to take a look at that. Mr. Latham: Was it wood siding? Unknown: There's two types of siding that we're intending to use. One is a wood siding, which is a shingle, and the other is a hardy plank which is a (inaudible) product that's meant to look like a shingle or siding. Mr. Orlowski: Mr. Cremers? Mr. Cremers: No. Mr. Orlowski: Ms, Scopaz? Ms. Scopaz: No questions. Mr. Orlowski: There being no further questions or comments, I'll entertain a motion to close the hearing. Mr. Gremers: So moved. Mr. Latham: Second. Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. Any questions on the motion? All those in favor? Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Ward, Mr. Latham, Mr. Cremers. Mr. Orlowski: Opposed? Motion carried. Does the Board have any pleasure at this point in time? Southold Town Planning Board 16 Augu~ 10,1998 Mr. Ward: Mr. Chairman, I'd like to offer the following resolution, that will be for a Conditional Negative Declaration. This project was previously approved for a much larger intensive project which did receive a Negative Declaration. Be it resolved that the Southold Town Planning Board, acting under the State Environmental Quality Review Act, assumes Lead Agency, and as Lead Agency makes a determination of non-significance and grants a Conditional Negative Declaration, subject to an archeological survey IB to be completed. Mr. Cremers: Second the motion. Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. Any questions on the motion? All those in favor? Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Ward, Mr. Latham, Mr. Cremers. Mr. Orlowskh Opposed? Motion carried. Hearings Held Over From Previous Meetings: Mr. Orlowski: Jimbo Realty Corp. - This proposed site plan is for a 34,200 square foot self service dry storage building; a 1,750 square foot residence, and a 1,575 square foot office building on a 2.9 acre site on Rt. 48 (a.k.a. North Rd., Middle Rd.) in Southold. SCTM# 1000-59-4-8 & 9. Since the applicant isn't here and we haven't heard anything from him, I'll entertain a motion to keep the hearing open. Mr. Ward: So moved.
