WOODHOUSE Chair Telephone: 631 765-1938 Fax: 631 765-3136 PLANNING BOARD OFFICE TOWN OF SOUTHOLD To: Town of South old Board of Trustees From: Mark Terry, Senior Environmental Planner~ L WRP Coordinator Date: January 13,2006 Re: Request for Wetland Permit for Joseph Farrel SCTM#1000-135-3-26 JOSEPH FARRELL requests a Wetland Permit to construct a 1,196 sq. ft. single-family dwelling, driveway, sanitary system and private well. Located: 235 Mill Creek Dr., Southold. SCTM#135-3-26 The proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 95, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of South old Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this department, as well as the records available to me, it is my recommendation that the proposed action is generally CONSISTENT with the Policy Standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP provided that the following standard best management practices are implemented to further the intent of Policy 5: Protect and Improve Water Quality in the Town of Southold 1. Require erosion and sediment controls (haybales, silt fencing) to protect the wetland system to the north of the property. 2. Require that the driveway be pervious. 3. Require native disease-resistant and drought-tolerant landscaping to minimize irrigation and fertilizer applications. Additionally, retain all large trees outside of the building envelope. 4. The survey identifies a proposed clearing and ground disturbance line, however, no conditions beyond that are proposed (i.e labeled as a undisturbed buffer) Due to small size of the parcel require the maximum width attainable for a non- fertilized/non disturbed buffer to minimize lawn areas adjacent to the wetland system. Pursuant to Chapter 95, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written detennination regarding the consistency of the proposed action. -~- M,l Town of South old LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT FORM Jh\\~ -- ~ '~:~',~J A.
