Re:
Proposed Wetland Permit for RICHARD & JANET DOWNING
SCTM# 1000-118-2-10
Mark K. Schwartz, Amhitect on behalf of RICHARD & JANET DOWNING requests a Wetland Permit to
demolish and reconstruct a new two-story dwelling in similar location; existing rear deck and pool, shed
and detached garage to remain; construct new porches and deck to connect house to existing deck;
existing septic system to be removed and new one installed further from the water; and install drywells
to contain roof run-off. Located: 1280 Bayberry Rd., Cutchogue. SCTM#118-2-10
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 submitted to this
department, as well as the records available to me, it is my recommendation that the proposed action is
CONSISTENT with the LWRP review provided the following best management practices are required:
If the action is approved, to further Policy 5: Protect and Improve Water Quality in the Town of Southold
and Policy 6; Protect and Restore the Quality and Function of the Town of Southold Ecosystem it is
recommended that the Board require the creation of a landscaped buffer (Incorporating existing
vegetation landward from the edge of the wetland. A sample definition of a landscaped buffer is
provided below for your use.
LANDSCAPED BUFFER -- A land area of a certain length and width which is planted with indigenous,
drought-tolerant vegetation (excluding turf) similar to that found within the immediate proximity of the
parcel. Vegetation shall be installed in sufficient densities to achieve 95% ground cover within two
years of installation. Survival of planted vegetation shall be 90% for a period of three years.
Maintenance activities within the buffer are limited to removing vegetation which is hazardous to life
and property, trimming tree limbs up to a height of 15 feet to maintain viewsheds, replanting of
vegetation and establishing a four-foot-wide access path constructed of pervious material for access to
the water body. [Added 12-15-2009 by L.L. No. 15-2009]
In addition it is recommended that a pool de-watering dry well be specified.
Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Board of Trustees shall consider this recommendation in preparing its
written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.

LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT FORM
A. INSTRUCTIONS
All applicants for permits* including Town of Southold agencies, shall complete this CCAF for
proposed actions that are subject to the Town of Southold Waterfront Consistency Review Law. This
assessment is intended to supplement other information used by a Town of Southold agency in
making a determination of consistency. *Except minor exempt actions including Building Permits
and other ministerial permits not located within the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area.
Before answering the questions in Section C, the preparer of this form should review the exempt
minor action list, policies and explanations of each policy contained in the Town of Southold Local
Waterfront Revitalization Program. A proposed action will be evaluated as to its significant
beneficial and adverse effects upon the coastal area (which includes all of Southold Town).
If any question in Section C on this form is answered "yes", then the proposed action may affect the
achievement of the LWRP policy standards and conditions contained in the consistency review law.
Thus, the action should be analyzed in more detail and, if necessary, modified to making a
determination that it is consistent to the maximum extent practicable LWRP policy
standards and conditions. If an action cannot be certified as the LWRP policy
standards and conditions, it shall not be undertaken.
