Re: Proposed Site Plan for Gaia Holistic Circle at East Marion
SCTM #1000-38-7-7.1 Zone: M-Il
This proposed action requires a special exception and site plan to construct a holistic health
center with a total of 1 14 transient motel rooms consisting of23 guest lodges totaling 87
accessory motel units (14 lodges containing 3 unit motel rooms & 9 guest lodges containing 5
unit motel rooms). The remaining 27 motel units are to be located in the main spa building along
with a 185 seat restaurant (103 private guest seats, 72 public guest seats), 10 public bar seats,
office space, retail gift shop, 27 personal service treatment suites and accessory uses. The
proposed action also involves a 3,864 sq. ft. private restaurant annex with 45-99 private guest
seats and a covered 758 sq. ft. deck, 1,987 sq. ft. manager's residence with a 687 sq. ft. deck,
pool, a 7,205 sq. ft. maintenance and utility building, a sanitary waste treatment facility, 1,160
sq. ft. for three (3) gazebos, man-made water features, replacement of the existing bulkhead,
dredging of the 16 slip private marina basin, and various outdoor amenities on a 18.7 acre parcel
in the MIl Zone located approximately 3,278 ft. south of New York State Road 25 at the south
east end of Shipyard Lane known as 2835 Shipyard Lane in East Marion. SCTM # 1000-38-7-
7.1
The L WRP identifies the former Long Island Ovster Farm site at the foot of Old Shipvard Lane as
a underutilized commercial propertv. It is discussed in detail in Subsections. 7 and B.
Section V Subsection 7 states "the abandoned fish processing site at the foot of the Shipvard Lane.
at Cleaves Point. has great potential to provide additional public access to the water as a Town
marina. The Heavv use of the ramp at gull Pond Inlet suggests a need for more good Boating
access between Greenport Village and Orient Harbor." In addition. the L WRP identifies the site in
section B. Sununarv and Conclusions; Item I. Opportunities for land use changes: as "having
potential to be developed into a multi-use facility accommodating water enhanced recreational uses
as well as the typical water dependent uses allowed under the existing zoning. This site is also a
1
,
feasible location for a Town marina. Public ownership of this site may be more compatible with
the surrounding residential neighborhood than commercial operation. It would also provide access
within this reach"
The action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of
Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (L WRP) 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 determination that
the proposed action supports most of the policies of the L WRP, however, the proposal is
INCONSISTENT with the below Policy Standards and therefore is INCONSISTENT with
the L WRP based upon the following:
Policy 4. Minimize loss of human life, structures, and natural resources from flooding and
erosion.
Policy Standards
4.1 Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards.
The following management measures to minimize losses of human life and
structures from flooding and erosion hazards are suggested:
A. Minimize potential loss and damage by locating development and structures
away from flooding and erosion hazards.
1. Avoid development other than water-dependent uses in coastal hazard
!!:!:l!!, Locate new development which is not water-dependent as far
away from coastal hazard areas as practical.
The term Water-devendent use means a business or other activity which
can onlv be conducted in. on. over. or adiacent to a water body because
such activity reQuires direct access to that water body. and which involves.
as an integral part of such activitv. the use of the water. Existing uses
should be maintained and enhanced where possible and appropriate.
Portion ofthe property are located within the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area
as identified bv the NYSDEC Coastal Erosion Hazard Area Map.
Portions of the Transient Motel building. proposed outdoor terrace. a
portion of the parking area and leaching fields are all Proposed seaward of
the Coastal Erosion Hazard Line. It is recommended that the structures be
relocated to the greatest extent practical to meet the above policv and sub-
policies
2. Avoid reconstruction of structures, other than structures that are part
of a water-dependent use, damaged by 50% or more of their value in
coastal hazard areas.
The Transient Motel and accessory uses are proposed to be built within the
footprint of the Oyster processing facilitv. The use is not a "water
2
dependent" use. However. the percent of value loss has not been provided
and therefore a recommendation on whether the proposal meets this policv
cannot be made. The proposed marina is a water dependent use.
3. Move existing development and structures as far away from flooding
and erosion hazards as practical. Maintaining existing development
and structures in hazard areas may be warranted for:
a. structures which functionally require a location on the coast or
in coastal waters.
The Transient Motel. restaurant and other accessory uses do not
reauire a coastal location and therefore are inconsistent with this
sub-policy. It is recommended that the structures be designed
and/or located to avoid flooding and erosion hazards.
b. water-dependent uses which caunot avoid exposure to hazards.
The proposed marina is the only water dependent use within the
proposal. There is no ability to relocate the marina.
c. sites in areas with extensive public investment, public
infrastructure, or major public facilities.
A public use is not proposed and therefore the action in
inconsistent with this sub-policy.
d. sites where relocation of an existing structure is not practical.
The applicant proposes to reconstruct the main building which
houses the Transient Motel. restaurant and other accessory uses
within the original footprint of the Oyster processing facility.
However. the building is located within Flood Zone AE Zone
Elevation 9. an "Area of Special Flood Hazard". It is
recommended that the applicant amend the proposal to the greatest
extent practical to avoid and/or mitigate all potential flooding and
erosion hazards.
5. Manage development in floodplains outside of coastal hazard areas so
as to reduce adverse environmental effects, minimize the need for
future structural flood protection measures, or expansion of existing
protection measures and to meet federal flood insurance program
standards.
The main building which houses the Transient Motel. restaurant with other
accessory uses. sleeping units l6C. l7C and l8C. the pool house and pool.
and the Transient Motel private cafeteria are located in Flood Zone AE
Zone Elevation 9. an "Area of Special Flood Hazard". Therefore the
proposed action is inconsistent with the above policy and sub-policies.
Flood Zone AE Zone Elevation 9 corresponds to the 100 year floodplains
that are determined in the Flood Insurance Study by detailed methods. A
3
100 year flood refers to an eleyation that has a I % chance of being
exceeded or equaled each year. It is recommended that the applicant
amend the proposal to the greatest extent practical to mitigate all potential
flooding hazards.
4.2 Protect and restore natural protective features. Natural protective geologic features
provide valuable protection and should be protected, restored and enhanced.
Destruction or degradation of these features should be discouraged or prohibited.
c. Minimize interference with natural coastal processes by:
1. providing for natural supply and movement of unconsolidated
materials and for water and wind transport
2. limiting intrusion of structures into coastal waters
D. A limited interference with coastal processes may be allowed where the
principal purpose ofthe structure is necessary to:
1. simulate natural processes where existing structures have altered the
coast
2. provide necessary public benefits for flooding and erosion protection
3. provide for the efficient operation of water-dependent uses
Limited interference is to be mitigated to ensure that there is no adverse impact to
adjacent property, to natural coastal processes and natural resources, and, if
undertaken by a private property owner, does not incur significant direct or
indirect public costs.
4.3 Protect public lands and public trust lands and use of these lands when undertaking
all erosion or flood control projects.
A. Retain ownership of public trust lands which have become upland areas due
to fill or accretion resulting from erosion control projects. (However, in
situations where erosion control projects have created public land updrift,
but also resulted in damage or erosion to public lands and public trust lands
down drift of the control structure, the public benefit of that structure or
project should be re-examined and appropriate modifications made as
conditions suggest.)
Public lands on the property involve all waters of the state UP to the high tide
mark. The placement of channel bulkheads entering the marina has caused the re-
nourishment of the beach to the northeast of the bulkheads (uudrift) and the
severe erosion of the beach to the southwest of the channel bulkheads (downdrift).
This area has eroded to landward of the shoreline east/west timber bulkhead
forcing the low/high tidal range to move landward from the historic location. The
high tide mark is now located north of the failed shoreline east/west timber
bulkhead. The alteration of the tidal range on the property is a direct result of the
channel bulkheads and therefore it is recommended that the length of the
bulkheads in the channel be re-evaluated to allow the beach to naturally re-
establish and improve public access in the area southwest of the channel.
4
B. Avoid losses or likely losses of public trust lands or use of these lands, including
public access along the shore, which can be reasonably attributed to or
anticipated to result from erosion protection structures.
The beach to the northeast of the channel bulkheads is accessible to the public to
the northeast bulkhead. The beach southwest of the channel bulkheads has
significantlv eroded. The erosion of the beach coupled with the large amount of
hardened shoreline structures severelv limit public access. It is recommended
that the length of the channel bulkheads be re-evaluated to allow the beach to
naturallv re-establish.
4.4 Manage navigation infrastructure to limit adverse impacts on coastal processes.
A. Manage stabilized inlets to limit adverse impacts on coastal processes.
1. Include sand bypassing at all engineered or stabilized inlets which
interrupt littoral processes.
2. Avoid extending jetties when it will increase disrnption of coastal
processes.
3. Consider removing existing jetties when they do not protect existing
water-dependent uses and disrupt coastal processes.
As indicated above the channel bulkheads have disrupted the normal sand
drifting patterns and have caused adverse impacts to the natural coastal
processes. The length of both the north and south bulkheads should be re-
evaluated and re-designed to improve the natural sand downdrift process to the
greatest extent practical to meet the above sub-policv.
B. Design channel construction and maintenance to protect and enhance natural
protective features and prevent destabilization of adjacent areas.
See above response.
Policy 5. Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold.
5.3 Protect and enhance quality of coastal waters.
A. Protect water quality based on an evaluation of physical factors (pH,
dissolved oxygen, dissolved solids, nutrients, odor, color and
turbidity), health factors (pathogens, chemical contaminants, and
toxicity), and aesthetic factors (oils, tloatables, refuse, and suspended
solids).
In June of 2005. a Phase II Environmental Assessment report was prepared for the
site bv Longshore Environmental Inc. The report concludes that the site contains
MTBE's. areas of petroleum impact. and levels of copper and zinc that exceed
NYDEC recommended soil cleanup objectives.
5
One concern with the results listed in the report is that soil analvsis was not
performed at all areas containing underground storage tanks. including a 10,000
gallon Diesel underground storage tank. It is stronglv recommended that the
Board require a that soil analvsis be condncted for all nndereround storaee
tanks storine petroleum products and require that a remediation plan to
clean UP the contaminated sites be submitted to the Town..
In addition. it is stronelv recommended that anv dredee spoil and fill soils be
tested for contaminants prior to use on site.
Policy 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystem.
6.3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wetlands.
A. Comply with statutory and regulatory requirements of the Southold
Town Board of Trustees laws and regulations for all Andros Patent
and other lands under their jurisdiction.
1. Comply with Trustee regulations and recommendations as set forth in
Trustee permit conditions.
The proposed setback from the Transient Motel building to the bulkhead is XXX
feet. The proposed setbacks from the Transient Motel cafeteria building is 55 feet
from the wood decking to the bulkhead: from 16c. 17c. 18c sleeping rooms the
setback cannot be accuratelv determined until the wetland iurisdictional boundary
has been established bv the Board of Trustees. A minimum setback of 100 feet is
required pursuant to Chapter 275 and a minimum setback of 75 feet is required bv
Article XXIII Section 280-239B of the Town of Southold Town Code. Please
require that the applicant amend the application to meet the above policv to the
greatest extent possible
Policy 8. Minimize environmental degradation in Town of Southold from solid waste and
hazardous substances and wastes.
8.2 Manage hazardous wastes to protect public health and control pollution.
C. Remediate inactive hazardous waste disposal sites. Future use of a site should
determine the appropriate level of remediation.
The Town's Site Plan application process will uncover inactive hazardous
waste disposal sites. Remediation efforts will be specified during the
environmental review of those sites prior to development or redevelopment.
8.3 Protect the environment from degradation due to toxic pollutants and substances
hazardous to the environment and public health.
6
A. Prevent release of toxic pollutants or substances hazardous to the
environment that would have a deleterious effect on fish and wildlife
resources.
The Town's Site Plan application process will determine whether proposed
land use activities will involve toxic substances. Protection measures to
prevent their release to the environment, particularly fish and wildlife
resources, will be determined during the environmental review.
Further, the dredging of toxic material from underwater lands and the
deposition of such material shall be conducted in the most mitigative manner
possible so as not to endanger fish and wildlife resources, in either the short
or long term.
E. Take appropriate action to correct all unregulated releases of substances
hazardous to the environment.
In June of 2005. a Phase II Environmental Assessment reoort was prepared for the site by
Longshore Environmental Inc. The report concludes that the site contains MTBE's. areas
of petroleum impact. and leyels of copper and zinc that exceed NYDEC recommended
soil cleanup obiectiyes.
One concern with the results listed in the reoort is that soil analysis was not performed at
all areas containing underground storage tanks. including a 10.000 gallon Diesel
underground storage tank. It is strongly recommended that the Boards require that a soil
analvsis be required for all underground storage tanks storing petroleum products and a
remediation plan to clean UP the contaminated sites be submitted to the Town..
Policy 9. Provide for public access to, and recreational use of, coastal waters, public lands,
and public resources ofthe Town of Southold.
The L WRP states that "public ownership of this site may be more compatible with the
surrounding residential neighborhood than commercial operation. It would also provide access
within this reach". The property and proposed use is priyate: there is no proposal to enhance
public access or recreational use of coastal waters. so therefore the proposal. as submitted. is
inconsistent with the above policy.
Policy 10. Protect Southold's water-dependent uses and promote siting of new water-
dependent uses in suitable locations.
10.1 (a) Protect existing water-dependent uses.
The term Water-dependent use means a business or other actiyity which can only be conducted
in. on. over. or adiacent to a water body because such activity requires direct access to that water
body. and which involves. as an integral part of such activity. the use of the water. Existing uses
should be maintained and enhanced where possible and appropriate.
7
.
.
Proposed Marina: The plan incorporates a marina use which is a water deoendent use that
requires direct access to the water bodv. Therefore the marina use is consistent with 10.1 (a)
above.
10.1 (b) Improve the economic viability of water-dependent uses by allowing for non-water
dependent accessory and multiple uses, particularly water enhanced and maritime
support services where sufficient upland exists.
The term Water-enhanced use means a use or activitv which does not require a location adiacent
to coastal waters. but whose location on the waterfront adds to the public use and enioyment of
the water's edge. Water-enhanced uses are primarilv recreational. cultural. retail. or
entertainment in nature. These uses mav be necessary for the successful [mancial operation and
viabilitv of water-devendent uses.
Proposed Transient Motel: The proposed transient motel use is a special exceotion use in the
MIl zoning district and a water enhanced use. The use is also non-water dependent. however. it
improves the economic viabilitv ofthe marina and overall proiect and therefore is consistent with
the above sub-policv.
Proposed Restaurant: The proposed restaurant use is a special exception use in the MIl zoning
district and a water enhanced use. The use is also non-water dependent. however. it improves
the economic viabilitv of the marina and overall proiect and is therefore. consistent with the
above sub-policv.

What are the retail shops? Will they sell souvenirs or will they be open to the public for
clothing, sports eqllipmP.ftt, and food? Will they generate traffic as people come to
purchase goods?
There is a concern that the guests will migrate towards the private beach maintained by
Summit Association. In addition there is also a concern that the marina will generate an
unsafe amount ofhoat traffic. How wiU this be addressed?
Will there bea "lights out" time? What steps will be taken regarding garbage and the
dumpsters that will be on the property? Will they be on the interior so that the
possible rodent problem will be the spa's problem and not the neighbors?
What is the "private dining room"? Will there be weddings and catering?
Will Southold Town enact a noise ordinance, and insist that the noise be CONTAINED
within the boundary of the Oki-Do property? 1 believe this is something that should be
done.
The Scope of this project is much too large and requires many variances.
Has the town considered using the 2% fund and buying this last piece of waterfront in
East Marion? There hasn't been much money spent in our hamlet, I don't believe.
This could end up being an eminent domain issue. The public good will not be served by
a facility that will DOUBLE the population of East Marion.
Thank, you for your, cons~'d_ e. ti n.

Pan 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 in Parts 2 and 3.
Pan 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 also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced.
Pan 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.

like to tli,;:e this opportunity to teU you some ad( itional informtion about the project that
would ll(,t be indicated on the drawings at this time.
As YOll me aware, the site is located on Gardinel's Bay in Ea! ,Marion. The 18.7-acre site
features a J OGO-loot shoreline along with an exi lung dredge,' marina basin. Currently
several abanduned 8l1d diJapidated structures ex st on the sit<:, The overall site was used for
commercial purposes and much uf the land dannged.
Our int.ention for the buildings and the site is to seek LEED ,reen building certification.
Upon conpldion, the pl'Oj e',t will rank among tie most exc(,;,tional eco-friendly designs in
the COUl1 r)'. The project is cUlTcntll' registered 'Nith the US :mc under our finn. LEED
certification provides a corrlplcte framework fOI assessing b1ltlding performance, site usage
and mee lng suslainc,bility goals. It not only addresses enerp usage and efficiency but,
restoration oftbe land am' shoreline, sustainabl" site develorment, use oflocal materials and
reSOUl'C'e l in the project, recycling, pollutants, '"', ater savings. materials selection and indoor
cnviroilller,tal quality,
Some of the items, which will be required and inplemented rar this project, are the
following:
- ,<dtemative transportation: Two cornmu ,er shuttle V2 IS will be provided for pickup of
.,eople 00ming to The site via public trar'sportation. Therefore parking capacity has
been sized not to exceed the minimum] )cal zoning" ,'quirements, Some of the
rQinimwn will be land banked.
- Bike storage racks are also provided to ',encourage n("l-invasive travel.
- All parking on the s;i te will be by valet( nll'. Once a,)erson arrives. they are
mcouraged not to use their car.
- ','he parking areas themselves will be of permeable [;"avel material which will allow
the natural absorption of surface waters not add any runoff pollutants to the soil,
I educe heat islands,
. Electric cans wlll be csed on site for gett ng around, I"lt walking is preferred.
. U!,der developing the, site,
. 1he current site was abused as an indLlst'ial site. We will be restoring the land by
acding water features, cre,ating lovely Ja] anese garder,s and adding landscaping.
. '~'c will keep as many existing trees as p' Issible and all new landscaping will be
indigenous and water efficient.
. Tle shoreline and a large wetlands area \dll be kept Lltural and maintained.
. Tle existing bulkhead along the bay will be replaced 'lith a more natural stone rip-
wrap to match the adjoining property.
. T Je new building will be constructed in 1 he location <:f the existing factory so as not
te disturb more of the site than is necessay.
. A state of the art septic system called Kr, )moglass wi, be used. In essence it puts
p,)table water back Luto the site
. Tne majority ofmat'lrials used will be k~al.
. Tne materials and design style will blene with the sit,.. Soft curves, natural colors.
. All pathwa)'s inside the site will be natu:al materials.
. Energy efticiency is addressed by means of solar hot '.vater and rooftop gardens, The
eltire energy usage for the site will be c, midered reL~wable energy.
. Recycling will occur.
. Light pollution is kept to a minimwn. l)w level liglt:.ing will be used along to paths
a ld parking areas.
. Water saving fixtur(:s 1,::\ the units.
. B.eduction of all dc..based refrigerants i~ implementcl in the new hvac systems.
Our directicl is to provide a site in which the harm'my of the bt.ildings and thr: landscape
reflects and~estores a natura! equilibrium. The eli<-nt's objectivr is to reduce, recycle and return
to the earth wha: is mken.

Appendix A
State Environmental Quality Review
FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM
Purpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants 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 subjective or unmeasurable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little or no formal
knowledge of the environment or may not be technically expert in environmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge
in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns 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 ftexible enough to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action.
Full 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 in 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 also 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.
THIS AREA FOR LEAD AGENCY USE ONLY
DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE.. Type 1 and Unlisted Actions
Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: [2] Part 1 [2] Part 2 0 Part 3
Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting information, and
considering both the magnitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the lead agency that:
DA.
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.
DB
Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect
for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore
a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared. .
DC
The project may result in one or more large and important impacts 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

PART 2 - PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE
Responsibility of Lead Agency
General Information (Read Carefully)
! In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by the question: Have my responses and determinations been
reasonable? The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst.
The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of
magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State and for
most situations. But, for any specific project 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 illustrative 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 question.
In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumulative effects.
Instructions (Read carefully)
a. Answer each of the 20 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there wili be any impact.
b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers.
c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box(column 1 or 2)to indicate the potential size of the impact. If
impact threshold equals 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 potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily significant. Any
large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in column 2 simply asks that it
be looked at further.
e. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then 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 to a small to moderate
impact. also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that such a reduction is not possible. This must be
explained in Part 3.

Reason for Appeal Continued
Zoning Board of Appeals
re: Oki-Do Ltd.
Pursuant to Town Law section 267b-3 the Southold Town Zoning
Board of Appeals is to analyze and assess the personal benefits
anticipated by the applicant against the potentially deleterious
effects that a grant of the relief requested would have on the
health, safety and welfare of the effected neighborhood or
community. In performing this balancing test, the Zoning Board is
charged with the responsibility to consider the five factors
enumerated in Town Law Section 267b-3(b) The variance should be
granted for the following reasons:
1. No undesirable change will be produced in the character of the
neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties, if the variance
is granted. The 18.7 acres is presently developed with dilapidated
Industrial buildings which exceed 35 feet in height. The
dilapidated industrial buildings were formerly used as an Oyster
Processing Factory. The Boat Basin is man made and the buildings
are located at less than 75 feet from the bulkhead. The setbacks
of the building to the Boat Basin will be maintained at 48 feet.
The setback of the existing building to the bulkhead along the Bay
is presently 54.9 feet (the proposed distance is 67.42 feet- more
conforming). The DEC has recommended stone revetment along the
Bay to match the design of the revetment at the Cleaves Point
Condominiums. The location of the revetment is expected to be at
the same location as the bulkhead, the final location will be
determined by the DEC.
The Motel and Restaurant building is a unique design which
incorporates the circles of the holistic and Feng Shui belief
(Ancient Asian culture and philosophy). The walls are "spires"
which taper towards the ski and follow the feng shui circles. The
spires are critical components of the architectural design and
carry throughout the building as well as the overall development
of the entire site. The Zoning Ordinance at 100-230 (D) (1)
Specifically provides Height Exceptions for: "soires, belfries,
cupolas and domes not for human occupancy..." Spires is not
defined in the zoning ordinance. However,"Spires" from New World
Dictionarv, Second Collage Edition is defined as "the top part of
a pointed, tapering object or structure, as a mountain peak or
anything that tapers to a point, as a pointed structure capping a
tower or steeple. The architectural feature is a spire.
The walls bisect the building at three points: The first arc
(length is 304.5 feet) begins at 28 feet and tapers to 55 feet
(average height of the wall is 41.5 feet); the second arc (length
100'9") begins at 33.5 feet and tapers to 43 feet and the third
arc (length 101'7") begins at 29.5 feet) and tapers to 35'10"
These spires are a critical design element to the building.
While These arcs fit the definition of "spires" and would not
require height variances, if the Board feels that a variance is
necessary then the applicant respectfully request an area variance
for the height of the arcs.
The arcs will not be out of character with the property, the
existing industrial buildings exceed 35 feet in height and the
property contains an exhaust tower from the Oyster Factory which
also exceeds 35 feet.
2. The benefit sought by the applicant can not be achieved by
some method, feasible for the applicant to pursue, other than an
area variance. The location of the Restaurant and decking is
maintained to keep the setbacks away from Shipyard Lane and
provide significant setbacks for parking and landscaping.
Most importantly to the owner is the location of the buildings
to benefit from their location along the water. The established
setbacks are maintained, the property is heavily developed with
industrial strength poured concrete. The owner, in their plan for
redevelopment will remove these "hard structures" and incorporate
natural materials and colors. The Feng Shui design of the overall
property can only be achieved by developing the structures within
the circles. The arcs are used as symbols (as a cupola on a
church identifies the structure) for the Feng Shui design.
3. The area variance is not substantial The setbacks were
established by the existing development of the Oyster Factory.
The Boat Basin is man made and used by the Oyster Factory for
their fish processing operation. The proposed buildings will
rehabili tate a deteriorated eyesore. The existing industrial
buildings on the site exceed 35 feet. The architectural design is
very carefully considered to capture the importance of the sky and
water at this site. This building will attract visitors from
around the world and the owner hopes will be considered among the
architectural wonders of this century. The application of the
balancing test weighs in favor of the grant of the variance.
4. The variance will have no adverse effect or impact on the
physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood or
district. The proposed structures are maintaining existing
setbacks and areas of disturbance. The foundations and bulkheads
within the basin area are thick poured cement, these structures
will be reconstructed, to the extent required, to comply with both
DEC and Trustees recommendations. All development will be in
compliance with environmental regulations and LEED certification.
The setbacks to the wetlands along the north-east area of the
property are preserved in a natural condition. The area adjacent
to the Bay contains cement, bulkhead, dilapidated boats and
construction material from the prior fish processing plant. The
proposed plan will clean up the area, remove environmentally
hazardous materials, all in compliance with DEC regulations.
Moreover, great emphasis is placed on landscaping and visual
treatment.
The design of the building, we hope, will be of international
importance. The design will be spectacular from every angle, but
most unique from the waterfront.
5. The alleged difficulty was not. self -created. The area of
development was established by the Oyster Factory. Significant
disturbance was caused by the Industrial use, the proposed
redevelopment of the site will return the property to a more
natural condition.
The architects designed with the zoning code which allows
spires. The arcs bisect the building. Removal of this feature
destroys the architectural integrity of the building. Two
separate Architectural Review Committees have reviewed the
preliminary designs and approved of it.
6. The variance requested is the minimum variance practicable
given the personal benefits anticipated by the applicant. The
proposed development will be a benefit to the community and a
complete revitalization of an industrial site.
We respectfully request that the appeal be granted, together with
any further relief that is deemed necessary and reasonable.

PROPERTY:
OKI-DO LTD.
SPECIAL EXCEPTION CRITERIA:
LAW: PRESUMPTIVELY V ALID...ALLOWS APPLICANT TO PUT HIS PROPERTY TO A
USE WHICH THE ORDINANCE EXPRESSLY PERMITS....THE USE IS
CONTEMPLATED BY THE ORDINANCE SUBJECT TO REASONABLE
CONDITIONS TO MINIMIZE THE IMPACT ON THE SURROUNDING AREA
100-263 A. THAT THE USE WILL NOT PREVENT THE ORDERLY AND
REASONABLE USE OF ADJACENT PROPERTIES OR OF PROPERTIES IN
ADJACENT USE DISTRICTS:
The premises is located at 2835 Shipyard Lane, East Marion, Town of Southold, County
Tax Map #~000-038-07-7.1;
The proposed Transient Motel will not prevent the ordinary and reasonable use of adjacent
properties. The applicant wishes to develop a luxurious transient motel where peace and
tranquility are utmost importance. The design of the gardens and ponds are an Oriental theme
intended to provide privacy for the occupants of the motel and neighbors
B. THAT THE USE WILL NOT PREVENT THE ORDERLY AND REASONABLE USE
OF PERMITTED OR LEGALLY ESTABLISHED USES IN THE DISTRICT WHEREIN
THE PROPOSED USE IS TO BE LOCATED OR ADJACENT USE DISTRICTS:
The transient motel and restaurant are permitted uses, by special exception. Across from
Shipyard Lane is a condominium development. Uses proposed are more desirable than
commercial marine uses otherwise permitted in MIl zoning. The design of the site plan is
intended to minimize impact to adjacent residential development. Simultaneously with this
application, the applicant has filed for site plan review and approval Additional features of the
project are described on attached letter dated January 10, 2006 from Butt & Otruba-O'Connor
Architects to Mr. Semon, Site Plan Reviewer.
C. THAT THE SAFETY, THE HEALTH, THE WELFARE, THE COMFORT, THE
CONVENIENCE OR THE ORDER OF THE TOWN WILL NOT BE ADVERSELY
AFFECTED BY THE PROPOSED USE AND ITS LOCATION
The proposed motel will be an asset to the Town of Southold, there is an increased need for
motel space due to the construction of the Breaknock Hall property, and the increased tourism
created by the year round wineries, fall pumpkin season, and winter Christmas Tree sales. The
goal of the owner is a tranquil and peaceful setting were the units are surrounded by Japanese
gardens. The project, the owner believes, will receive world wide interest. The LEED
certification requires reduction in transportation impacts by providing for shuttle service from
airports, bus and train transportation hubs. The guests in the motel will be provided with
transportation to such commercial centers as The Village of Greenport, Wineries and other
points of interest.
D. THAT THE USE WILL BE IN HARMONY WITH AND PROMOTE THE
GENERAL PURPOSES AND INTENT OF THIS CHAPTER
The Marine II zoning permits development of the waterfront for recreational uses such as the
proposed use. The subject property has been an eyesore in the community and underutilized for
many years. The proposed project will rejuvenate this property, provide extensive gardens and
attract visitors from around the world wishing to relax within a peaceful setting.
E. THAT THE USE WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH ITS SURROUNDINGS AND
WITH THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND OF THE COMMUNITY
IN GENERAL, P ARTICULARL Y WITH REGARD TO VISIBILITY, SCALE AND
OVERALL APPEARANCE
The areas disturbed by existing buildings will be developed and the architects have designed
unique structures in the Japanese style. The gardens and ponds are being designed by specialist
in the field, using native species, as well as Japanese gardens and ponds.
F. THAT ALL PROPOSED STRUCTURES, EQUIPMENT AND MATERIAL SHALL BE
READILY ACCESSIBLE FOR FIRE & POLICE PROTECTION
The reuse of the property will meet or exceed building code standards. Environmental and
energy efficient development is proposed. The site plan provides for emergency and police

Re: Gaia Holistic Circle
Dear Mr. Semon:
It is our pleasure to submit to you our application for the above referenced project. I would
like to take this opportunity to tell you some additional information about the project that
would not be indicated on the drawings at this time.
As you are aware, the site is located on Gardiners Bay in East Marion. The l8.7-acre site
features a 1000-foot shoreline along with an existing dredged marina basin. Currently
several abandoned and dilapidated structures exist on the site. The overall site was used for
commercial purposes and much of the land damaged.
Our intention for the buildings and the site is to seek LEED green building certification.
Upon completion, the project will rank among the most exceptional eco-friendly designs in
the country. The project is currently registered with the USGBC under our firm. LEED
certification provides a complete framework for assessing building performance, site usage
and meeting sustainability goals. It not only addresses energy usage and efficiency but,
restoration of the land and shoreline, sustainable site development, use ofIocal materials and
resources in the project, recycling, pollutants, water savings, materials selection and indoor
environmental quality.
Some of the items, which will be required and implemented for this project, are the
following:
· Alternative transportation: Two commuter shuttle vans will be provided for pickup of
people coming to the site via public transportation. Therefore parking capacity has
been sized not to exceed the minimum local zoning requirements. Some of the
minimum will be land banked.
· Bike storage racks are also provided to encourage non-invasive travel.
· All parking on the site will be by valet only. Once a person arrives, they are
encouraged not to use their car.
· The parking areas themselves will be of permeable gravel material which will allow
the natural absorption of surface waters, not add any runoff pollutants to the soil,
reduce heat islands.
-
· Electric carts will be used on site for getting around, but walking is preferred.
· under developing the site,
· The current site was abused as an industrial site. We will be restoring the land by
adding water features, creating lovely Japanese gardens and adding landscaping.
· We will keep as many existing trees as possible and all new landscaping will be
indigenous and water efficient.
· The shoreline and a large wetlands area will be kept natural and maintained.
· The existing bulkhead along the bay will be replaced with a more natural stone rip-
wrap to match the adjoining property.
· The new building will be constructed in the location of the existing factory so as not
to disturb more of the site than is necessary.
· A state of the art septic system called Kromoglass will be used. In essence it puts
potable water back into the site.
· The majority of materials used will be local.
· The materials and design style will blend with the site. Soft curves, natural colors.
· All pathways inside the site will be natural materials.
· Energy efficiency is addressed by means of solar hot water and rooftop gardens. The
entire energy usage for the site will be considered renewable energy.
· Recycling will occur.
· Light pollution is kept to a minimum. Low level lighting will be used along to paths
and parking areas.
· Water saving fixtures in the units.
· Reduction of all cfc-based refrigerants is implemented in the new hvac systems.
Our direction is to provide a site in which the harmony of the buildings and the landscape
reflects and restores a natural equilibrium. The client's objective is to reduce, recycle and return
to the earth what is taken.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
Sincerely,
BP~

Re: Oki-Do Ltd. Site Plan
Shipyard lane, East Marion, NY
SCTM #: 1000-39-07-7.1
Dear Mrs. Woodhouse:
As per a request from your office, I have reviewed the Site Plans for the above referenced project.
The Site Plan drawings have been prepared by the office of Young & Young, Land Surveyor; and the office
of Butt'Otruba-O'Connor Architects, AlA. These drawings have been dated 3/17/04 & 12/28/05. Please
consider the following:
1. Please note that the proposed disturbance resuiting from construction activities and grading of this
site will be greater than one (1) acre in area. This project will require coverage from NYS Department of
Environmental Protection (DEC) under the Phase II State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES)
Program. The Developer must obtain coverage under the General Permit for Storm-water Runoff from
Construction Activity (GP-02-01) prior to the initiation of construction activities.
2. Drawing C-3: This existing condition drawing sheet shows the existing topography of the site and a
flood Zone line of AE (EI 9). These two items need to be coordinated. While the flood zone line was
interpolated from a large scale map it should also be modified to align with the nine (9') foot Contour that
runs through the property. This item should be reviewed by the Building Department.
3. It is apparent that the main access to the site is proposed by the way of Shipyard Lane. I have
reviewed this item with Mr. Harris and he has requested road improvement to Shipyard that would include
resurfacing of the road and the installation of new drainage systems in the Town Right-of-Way. Additional
drainage should be incorporated into the project design to recharge storm-water run-off before it reaches
Peconic Bay.
4. The proposed access roadway to the Managers Residence may require Excavation, Fill and/or
Grading to achieve a stable road design. The impact of this new road on adjacent property to the East
should be dealt with. Landscape Buffers, the maintenance of storm-water run-off and the elimination of
erosion problems should be addressed.
5. The Proposed Restaurant Building Setbacks from the High Water Mark should be reviewed with the
Zoning board of Appeals and the Town Trustees. It is understood that there is an existing structure but to
what extent will this building be reused? By the time the existing structure is made flood compliant it would
be well over a 50% threshold for new work. In addition, the proposed design of the new facility does not
appear to utilize any of the existing structure with the exception of its footprint. Therefore, it is recommended
that the proposed new Restaurant facility be relocated to meet the minimum standards of Town Zoning and
enhance the policies of the LWRP. This item should also be reviewed with Mark Terry for LWRP
Consistency.

6. Cross section "A-A" on sheet A-4 and the Rock Revetment Detail on sheet A-5 indicate the toe of
Revetment to be seaward of the High Water mark. It is recommended that this item be constructed
landward and above the Mean High Water line. In addition to preserving the marine community along the
shoreline, this item would allow for the preservation of the foreshore that may be utilized by the General
Public. This item should be reviewed by the Town Trustees and the LWRP Coordinator.
7. Storm Water Leaching Pools should be installed a minimum of two (2') feet above the Water Table.
Some of the proposed leaching fields adjacent to Tidal Wetland areas may be set too deep. Leaching Pool
design depth and Test Hole information should be coordinated to maintain a minimum two foot separation.
8. The lighting plan on Sheet C-7 seems excessive when it appears that almost all of it will be located
immediately adjacent to Town Right-of-Ways and the rear yards of the existing residential properties. It
would appear that some of this site lighting and parking would be better suited if it were constructed within
the interior of the site to reduce the impact on the adjacent property owners.
9. The current proposed location for the Southerly entrance to the site is too close to the road end. This
Town road end is used for public access to the waterfront and should not be monopolized by the use of this
new facility. It is recommended that this entrance be moved in a northerly direction to align with the entrance
of the Condominium Complex located on the opposite side of the street.
10. Drainage calculations indicate that Tributary Area # 13 will have six (6) pools. The site plan only
indicates five. This item should be modified accordingly.
If you have any questions regarding this review, please do not hesitate to contact my office.
Sincerely,
James A. Richter, R.A.

graphically assessed by use of photographic renderings of expected site conditions and line of site
drawings. The impact of architectural character and styling and it's compatibility will be
evaluated. The impact of use of fill, increase in site elevations, and visual appearance of
structures will be evaluated. The significance of visual impacts will be assessed and mitigation
proposed. Lighting impacts will be discussed from a visual impact perspective.
· The existing noise environment will be evaluated in terms of ambient noise, sensitive receptors
and community character. The potential noise impacts of the project will be assessed through
identification of source areas, traffic circulation/volume, proximity to receptors, distance and
other attenuation, and the significance of potential noise impacts will be assessed.
· The historic and archaeological resources of the site will be addressed through a determination of
historic and archaeological sensitivity and preparation of a Stage WIB Cultural Resources
Assessment (CRA). The site is within an area of archaeological sensitivity and therefore a Stage
IA/IB is required, unless significant ground disturbance is documented to the satisfaction of the
OPRHP.
In the Reasonable Alternatives to be Considered section the following alternatives should be
address:
. Alternative design for location for parking to provide convenience to proposed use areas and
reduce impact to neighboring residential properties;
. Alternative design to conform to a 75 foot impervious/structure setback from wetlands;
. Alternative design to reduce impervious surface area (particularly the pool patio area) to increase
indigenous landscaping and reduce stormwater, groundwater and wetlands impacts.

guest seats and a covered 758 sq. ft. deck, 1,987 sq. ft. manager's residence with a 687 sq. ft. deck, pool, a
7,205 sq. ft. maintenance and utility building, a sanitary waste treatment facility, 1,160 sq. ft. for three (3)
gazebos, man-made water features, replacement of the existing bulkhead, dredging of the 16 slip private
marina basin, and various outdoor amenities on a 18.7 acre parcel in the MIl Zone located approximately
3,278 ft. south of New York State Road 25 at the south east end of Shipyard Lane known as 2835 Shipyard
Lane in East Marion. SCIM # 1000-38-7-7.1
PROJECT LOCATION:
The subject property lies in the hamlet of East Marion, Town of Southold, County of Suffolk, New York.
The subject property consists of an 18.7:1: acre parcel located on the east side of Shipyard Lane, immediately
west of the terminus of the deave Point Road right of way. The parcel contains approximately 927 feet of
frontage on Shipyard Lane, 50 feet of frontage on the deave Point Road right of way, and approximately
920 feet of frontage along Gardiners Bay. The site is currently zoned Marine II (M- 2) District.
MEE TING PURPOSE:
The purpose of "scoping" is to focus the D EIS on potentially significant adverse impacts and to eliminate
consideration of those impacts that are irrelevant or non-significant. Some environmental impacts to be
considered for evaluation in the DEIS are identified in the Department's Positive Declaration and in the
project Sponsor's (patricia Moore, Esq.) Draft Scoping Document. Scoping will help to ensure that this
DEIS is a comprehensive, accurate and complete document, adequate for public review and which properly
evaluates the environmental impacts that may occur if the proposed landfill expansion is approved.
