Evaluate the project to the following policies by analyzing how the project will further support or not support the policies. Provide all proposed Best Management Practices that will further each policy. Incomplete answers will require that the form be returned for completion. DEVELOPED COAST POLICY Policy 1. 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 III - Policies; Page 2 for evaluation criteria. [--']Yes [---] No [~ Not Applicable Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 2. Protect and preserve historic and archaeological resources of the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III - Policies Pages 3 through 6 for evaluation criteria W1 Yes 73 No [~ Not Applicable Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 3. Enhance visual quality and protect scenic resources throughout the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III - Policies Pages 6 through 7 for evaluation criteria [~Yes [~ NO [~ Not Applicable The project is consistent with Policy 3 because it limits the proposed structure renovations to areas that are directly in place of existing structures to be removed and/or adjacent thereto and/or as far from or farther from the top of the bluff, thus maintaining the existing visual buffer for the development from Long Island Sound. Moreover, a nonturf buffer will be established in place of existing lawn adjacent to the bluff, which will enhance the scenic quality of the site nearest to the bluff. Attach additional sheets if necessary NATURAL COAST POLICIES Policy 4. Minimize loss of life, structures, and natural resources from flooding and erosion. See LWRP Section III - Policies Pages 8 through 16 for evaluation criteria Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 5. Protect and improve water quality and supply in the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III - Policies Pages 16 through 21 for evaluation criteria [~ Yes [~ No [-~ Not Applicable The project will protect and improve water quality and thus be consistent with Policy 5 through the establishment ora I O'-wide nonturf buffer in place of existing maintained lawn area adjacent to the top of the bluff. The existing naturally vegetated slope will remain undisturbed and continue to serve as a buffer adjacent to Long Island Sound. The surface water runoffabsorption capacity of the site will be increased not only by the replacement of lawn with this buffer but also via installation of a drainage system of leaders, gutters, and drywells to capture and recharge roof runoff from the entire finished dwelling structure. Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystems including Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats and wetlands. See LWRP Section III - Policies; Pages 22 through 32 for evaluation criteria. The proposed project includes the renovation and expansion of an existing dwelling located more than 150 feet from the tidal wetlands and waters of Long Island Sound, where all work is proposed more than 150 feet from wetlands and the only existing structure (hot tub) located less than 150 feet from wetlands is being removed. The minimum existing principal structure setback of 39 feet from the top of bluffwill be maintained and not further encroached upon. ide non-turf buffer will be established in place of existing lawn adjacent to the top of the bluff to increase the property's abilltS~ absorb runoff adjacent to the bluff, and a drainage system of leaders, gutters, and drywells will be installed more than 100 feet from the bluff to capture & recharge roof runoff from the entire finished dwelling structure. With the removal of an existing hot tub and raised masonry patio, the project will result in only a 509 square foot increase to the structural coverage of the parcel, approximately 200 square feet less than the area of lawn to be removed. A project-limiting fence and staked haybales will be set in place landward of the Bluffand Coastal Erosion Hazard Area to restrict and contain site disturbance during construction. The project will have to comply with the terms of a Town Wetlands Permit and is beyond the jurisdiction of the New York State Tidal Wetlands Act due to its location landward of the top ofa bluffwhose elevation exceeds 10 feet above mean sea level. Although a 100-foot bluffsetback cannot be achieved due to the location of the preexisting nonconforming dwelling, existing bluff setbacks from the principle structure will be maintained and not encroached upon, and the newly proposed swimming pool will be located partially more than 100 feet from the top of bluff. Therefore, the project will be consistent with Policy 6. Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 7. Protect and improve air quality in the Town of Southold.
