SCTM# 1000-122~3-17.1 formally known as SCTM: 1000-122-3-1.2, 2, 5.1 & 17
The proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of Southold
Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards. Based upon the
information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form.. submi~ed to t~As depm~gw, ent as well as the
records available to me, it is my determination that the proposed action is CONSISTENT with the Policy
Standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP. It is recommended that that the Planning Board
consider the following policy standards to further the below listed policies:
Policy Standards
3.1
Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of
Southold.
A. Minimize introduction of structural design components (including utility lines,
lighting, signage and fencing) which would be discordant with existing natural
scenic components and character.
It is recommended that all lighting be designed to meet "dark sky" standards to preserve
the night sky.
Screen components of development which detract from visual quality.
Use appropriate siting, scales, forms, and materials to ensure that structures are
compatible with and add interest to existing scenic components.
Preserve existing vegetation and establish new indigenous vegetation to enhance
scenic quality:
1. Preserve existing vegetation which contributes to the scenic quality of
the landscape.
i. It is recommended that the parking area and buffers be designed to
integrate existing mature trees within the design.
Improve the visual quality associated with hamlet areas.
Hamlet areas by nature of zoning create a mixture of residential and commercial uses
within close proximity to each other. It is recommended that following components be
designed in to the site plan to further this policy
i. A 5' "planted" buffer is proposed to separate the parking area and
the property of "Six Kings LLC" to the south. It is recommended
that the buffer width be increased.
ii. In addition a 2.9' "planted" buffer is proposed adjacent to the right-
of-way serving the residential uses on the property of"Cardinale' to
the north. It is recommended that the buffer is increased to a
minimum of 25' in width and heavily vegetated to separate the
residential and commercial uses of the properties.
Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Planning Board shall consider this recommendation in preparing its written
determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.
