Said properties are identified as SCTM #1000-53-1-18, #1000-47-2-33, #1000- 47-2-34, #1000-45-5-7.1 and #1000-45-5-7.2. The total area of the properties is 38.24- acres. The addresses of the properties are respectively 1653, 1650, 2075, 1650 Shore Drive and no # Silvermere Road in Greenport. The properties are located within the R-40 and R-80 zoning districts. The Stackler properties begin approximately 569 feet south of Route 25, along the westerly side of Shore Drive where Shore Drive intersects with lands of Long Island Rail Road and are bordered on the east by Shore Drive, south by Pipes Cove, west by Pipes Neck Creek, and north by land of LIRR. The proposed acquisition is for the Town to acquire fee title to the entire 38.2+ acres known as the Stackler Property for open space purposes. The exact area of the purchase is subject to a Town provided survey. The purchase price for the entire 38.2+ acre property is $4,500,000 (four million five hundred thousand dollars) and the purchase will be funded by the Community Preservation Fund, and a $325,000 (three hundred twenty- five thousand dollar) donation from The Nature Conservancy. The Town may also be eligible for grant funding from The National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, Coastal Estuarine Land Conservation Program.
