Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character, preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal location, and minimizes adverse effects of development. See LWRP Section m - Policies; Page 2 for evaluation criteria. [] Yes [] No [] Not Applicable As indicated within Policy 1, "Development that does not reinforce the traditional land use pattern of the Town of $outhold would result in a loss of the community and landscape character of $outhold.", this project is a proposal to improve an undeveloped lot with a dwellin.q and related appurtenances that are common to the surroundincl area, which is higthly developed. The proposal, as desiqned, will not result in adverse effects to the surroundinq environment in that it meets all required setbacks from situate wetlands. In addition, all dwellinqs in the surrounding1 area have coexisted harmoniously with the environment for years. Situatingl dwellinqs this close to a marina makes qaod use of infrastructure as it removes the need to construct separate dockinq facilities for each dwelling1. Accordingjly, we believe that this project is consistent with this policy. Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 2.
