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 M 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 ❑ Yes ❑ No M 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 overall site redevelopment, which includes the removal of the existing dwelling located 48 feet from the bluff crest and construction of a new dwelling located 52' farther landward and 100' from the bluff, is consistent with Policy 3 to the extent that the overall separation between the building areas and the bluff will be increased, thus increasing the visual buffer between developed portion of the property and Long Island Sound. The proposed non -turf buffer to be established in place of existing lawn will also further the policy objective of enhancing the scenic quality of the site adjacent 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 ® Yes ❑ No ❑ Not Applicable The project is consistent with Policy 4 because it will result in the relocation of building areas on the property substantially farther landward of the bluff. 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 See attached. 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. ® Yes ❑ No ❑ Not Applicable LWRP CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT FORM ADDENDUM FOR NITIN P. DESAI & C. BARSI, LLC 18915 SOUNDVIEW AVENUE SOUTHOLD, NY SCTM #1000-51-1-15 POLICY 5. The proposed site redevelopment includes the installation of a presently absent drainage system of leaders, gutters, and drywells to collect roof and site runoff from the buildings being constructed more than 100 feet from the bluff, and a 15' wide, approximately 1,500 sf non -turf buffer will be established adjacent to the bluff, which can serve both as a sink and filter for stormwater runoff and contaminants. By thus increasing on-site groundwater recharge, reducing lawn areas, and increasing the setback of lawn areas from the bluff and surface waters of Long Island Sound, the potential quantity of site runoff reaching surface waters will be decreased; and the quality of runoff will be improved through a reduced concentration of potential fertilizers, pesticides, and insecticides. Groundwater and ultimately surface water quality will also benefit from the replacement of the nonconforming existing sanitary system located 36 feet from the bluff with a new SCDHS-approved system located more than 150 feet from the crest of bluff and more than 230 feet from the surface waters of Long Island Sound. Therefore, the project is consistent with Policy 5, as water quality and supply will be both protected and improved as a result of the mitigation measures associated with the project. POLICY 6. The design of the overall site redevelopment will provide an improvement to the environmental condition of the site and adjacent ecosystems, including the adjacent bluff, beach, and tidal waters, through an increase in the property's bluff setbacks and the project's incorporated mitigation measures. Specifically, the site is presently characterized by a single family dwelling located 48 feet from the bluff crest with no drainage system to collect roof runoff; an antiquated septic system located 36 feet from the bluff, and a lawn that extends to the edge of the bluff. The proposed project seeks to remove these existing structures and construct a new dwelling located 52 feet farther landward of the bluff to achieve a bluff setback of 100', i.e., a 108% improvement to the dwelling's bluff setback; to install a drainage system of leaders, gutters, and drywells to collect and recharge roof runoff; to install an upgraded, SCDHS-approved sanitary system located more than 150 feet from the crest of bluff and more than 230 feet from the surface waters of Long Island Sound; and to establish a 15 -foot wide, approximately 1,500 sf non -turf buffer along the top of the bluff in place of existing lawn. Together, the proposed landward relocation of structures and additional mitigation measures will thus result in a substantial improvement to the property's bluff setbacks; a potentially significant improvement to both groundwater and surface water quality through improved treatment of effluent before it reaches the groundwater table; a reduction in potential roof runoff through capture and recharge by the proposed drainage system; and improved capture and filtering of surface water runoff by the non -turf buffer before it reaches the bluff, which also protects against potential top-down bluff erosion. Due to its location landward of the bluff crest, the project is exempt from the NYSDEC's permitting requirements pursuant to Article 25 of the New York State Tidal Wetlands Land Use Regulations. Thus, for all of the foregoing reasons, the project is consistent with Policy 6. t. See attached. Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 7. Protect and improve air quality in the Town of Southold. See LWRP Section III — Policies Pages 32 through 34 for evaluation criteria. ❑ Yes ❑ No ® Not Applicable Attach additional sheets if necessary Policy 8. Minimize environmental degradation in Town of Southold from solid waste and hazardous substances and wastes.
