We have nothing Whatsoever against the building of tennis courts, but in this particular case we have some serious environ- mental grounds for concern. For the last 6 years, the Fishers Island Conservancy has with considerable success tried to persuade Island property owners to maintain at least a 75' to 100' distance between newly conceived structures and the borders of any fresh water wetland. Not only do these quoted distances conform to Southold Town and NY State DEC regulations, but they make sense from an environmental point of view, particularly on Fishers Island, where the entire Island has been classifed by Suffolk County as a "Critical EnviroD_mental Area". You can imagine our concern, then, when we heard that Mr. Brim's proposed tennis!court will lie within 30 feet of a DEC- marked wetland on one side. Our prime concern here is of course environmental, and were we to have knowledge of the plans for such a project so close to a wetland without uttering an expression of our deepest concern, we would be going against everything we have striven for, over the better part of a decade. Again - we have no objections whatsoever to Mr. Brim's building a tennis cour~ on his newly acquired property. We would urge him, however, since his property is well over 3 acres in size, to try to buitd his tennis court on an area not so Close to the wetlands, where such environmental hazards asclear-cutting, earth- moving and grading, newilandscaping, etc. make the nearness of his project to the wetland doubly unsound environmentally. Un~il these environmentally-based conditions are corrected, then, this Conservancy cannot favor the granting of a DEC permit to Mr. Brim's tennis court project. When construction is planned this close to a wetland, yet where ample space appears to be available elsewhere on ~e Same property, then surely some other site not sO envir0nm~nt~l~Y sens~tiveShould be bothchOsen and acted UPon.

WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on June 4, 1992, and all those who desired to be heard were heard and their testimony recorded;i and WHEREAS, the Board has carefully considered all testimony and documentation submitted concerning this application; and 1W~EREAS, the Board Members have personally viewed and are familiar With the premises in question, its present zoning, and the surrounding areas; and WHEREAS, the Board made the following findings of fact: 1. PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION: The premises in question is located in the R-120 Zone District at the East End of Fishers Island, fronting along the north side of Private Road and frontage- along Fishers Island Sound, and identified on the Suffolk County Tax Map as District 1000, Section 4, Block 3, Lot 3. 2. SITE DESCRIPTION: The subject premises is improved with a 4700+- sq. ft. dwelling, accessory swimming pool, extensive garden and driveway areas, and accessory garage structures, all as shown on the site plan map prepared by Richard H. Strouse, L.E. for Chandler, Palmer & King, L.S. on Page 2 - Appl. No. 4111 Decision Rendered June 4, 1992 Matter of JOHN AND ELENA BRIM January 31, 1992. The subject premises consists of a total lot area of 3.56+- acres (combined as one lot: FIDCO n~mbers lA and lB). The contours of the property vary significantly as depicted on the site plan may revised February 21, 1992 (also prepared by Chandler, Palmer & King, L.S.). 3. AMENDMENT REQUESTED: This application is requesting an- amended location for a proposed tennis court {which was originally submitted for a 60' by 120' tennis court with a minimum distance: (a) from the easterly side lot line at 15 feet, (b) from the southerly front property line at not less than six (6') feet, and (c) from the wetlands as flagged by the D.E.C. at 43 (or 44') feet}. The location as amended is shown on the "May 12, 1992 Layout Plan" prepared by Chandler, Palmer & King with the following proposed setbacks: (a) from the most northeasterly setback to the property line at 10.2 feet and 11+- ft. to the arc along the easterly side property line; (b) the setback from the southerly front property line will not be changed -- being not less than six (6') feet; the feet. (c) the setback from the southeasterly most corner of tennis court enclosure scales out to be at not less than 20 court grade. 4. HEIGHT: No change is proposed for fence height of ten (10') feet from tennis the tennis court base at 5. BASIS OF REQUEST: The testimony received under the previous application appears emphasized the need for preserving two large cherry trees at the expense of extensive regrading and excavating that would have been necessary to locate the court in that particular location. The newly proposed location would require a substantial reduction in the amount of land excavation (now at 140 yards). {See testimony to support the amended application from Oliver Cope (Architect)}. 6. In checking with the N.Y.S. Department of Environmental Conservation, it was confirmed that a plan to reduce the amount of- land excavation is encouraged eventhough the setback to the wetlands for a surface tennis court is closer. (More disturbance would be created to the land areas by excavation than by a surface tennis court at grade with fencing.) 7. In considering this appeal, it has been found that: Page 3 ~ppl.

The subject premises is mmproved with a 4700+- sq. ft. dwelling, accessory swimming pool, extensive garden and driveway areas, and accessory garage structures, all as shown on the site plan map prepared by Richard H.

No. 40~7 Decision Rendered May 7, 1992 Matter of JOH~N AND ELENA BRiM 3. Submitted initially with the application for consideration is the proposed location of a 60' by 120' tennis court with a minimum distance: (a) from the easterly side lot line at 15 feet, (b) from the southerly front property line at not less than six (6') feet, and (c) from the wetlands as flagged by the D.E.C. at 43 (or 44') feet. The tennis court fence is proposed at a height of ten feet from tennis court base at grade. 4. Subsequently, at the public hearing, the attorney for the applicant submitted an amended map (dated April 7, 1992) for consideration as the preferred atternative),re-positioning the tennis court closer to the east, with a minimum setback at the northeast corner of the tennis court at 2-1/2 feet instead of 15 feet (and at 20 feet instead of 35+- feet at the southeasterly corner of the tennis court). {See additional documentation submitted to support the ~nended application, including the affidavit of Oliver Cope (Architect) concerning existing 24~ cherry trees and oak trees at the location of the proposed tennis court and ground elevations of the site.} 5. it is the position of this Board that the second alternative to position to tennis court at 2-1/2 feet from the property line at its closest point (at the northeast corner of the tennis courT) and 22 feet from the nearest wetlands as flagged by the D.E.C. is substantial in relation to the requirements and is not the minim~ necessary to afford relief under the circumstances. 6. Accordingly, it is the position of the Board that the initial site plan map revised February 21, 1992 positioning the tennis court at a distance 15 feet from the easterly property line and at 43 (44') from the nearest wetlands as flagged by the D.E.C. is not unreasonable in that: (a) the circumstances are uniquely related to the land and are not personal in nature to the landowner; (b) the relief is the minimal necessary under the circumstances; (c.) the relief as granted will not alter the essential character o~ the neighborhood since it is not uncommon to locate accessory uses of this nature in areas other than the waterfront yard areas (which under our current zoning ordinance is defined as the rear yard area}; (d) the relief requested will not, in turn, be adverse to the safety, health, welfare, comfort, convenience, or Page 3 - Appl. No. 4097 Decision Rendered May 7, 1992 Matter of JOHN AND ELENA BRIM order of the town, or Db adverse to neighboring properties since the nearest neighborinq residence is more than 500 feet distant; (e) the relief requested does not involve an increase of dwelling unit density and therefore will not cause an effect on available governmental facilities; (f) the property is unique in that there is limited "rear" yard area as defined in our zoning code due ~o the character of this waterfront co~unity and the layout of the land and principal building. Accordingly, on motion by Mr. Doyen, seconded by Mr. Dinizio, it was RESOLVED, to GRANT permission in the Matter of the Application of JOHN~nd ~3LqiA?~,~-NAA. BRIM to locate a 60 ft. by 120 ft. tennis court with 10 ft. high fence around its perimeter as shown on the site plan amended February 21, 1992 prepared by Chandler, Palmer & King, L.S. and SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: t. That there be no lighting which would be adverse to neighboring properties or traffic; 2.

The ouestion of whether an action mav be significant is not always easy to answer. FreQuent- ly, there are a~ 3ects of a prolect that are subiective or unmeasureable. It is also understood that those who determine significance ma~, have little or 9o formal knowledge of the enwronment or may be technically expert in environmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting the q ~estion of significance The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determination process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action. Full £AF Components: The full EAF is comprised of three parts: Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given prolect and its site. By identifying basic project data it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a project or action, t provides guidance as to whether an ~mpact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it is a potentially- large impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can be mitigated or reduced. Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identified as potentially-large, then Part 3 is used to evaluate whether or not the impact is actuallv important, DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE~Type I and Unlisted Actions Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: [] Part I [] Part 2 [:]Part 3 Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting information, and considering both the magitude and importance of each imoact, it is reasonably determined by the lead agency that: El~ A. The project will not result in any large and important impact(s] and. therefore, ~s one which will not have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration wilt I~ I~,e~red. [] B, Although the proiect could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.* [] C. The project may result ih one or more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared. * A Conditioned Negative Declaration ~s only valid for Unlisted Actions Name of Action Name of Lead Agency Print or Type Name of Resoonsible Officer in Lead Agency Title of Responsible Officer Signature of Responsible Officer in Lead Agency 'Signature of Preparer(If different from responsible officer) Date PART 1--PROJECT INFORMATION Prepared by Project Sponsor NOTICE: This document is designed to assist in determining whether the act)oD proposed may have a significant effect on the environment Please complete the entire form. Parts A through E. Answers to these questions will be considered as part of the application for approval and may be subject to further verification and public review. Provide any additional information you believe will be needed to complete Parts 2 and 3. It is expected that completion of the full EAF will be dependent on information currently available and will not involve new studies, research or investigation.

The reviewer is not expected to he an expert environmental analyst · Identifying that an imoact wfl be potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily sig~ificanL Any large impact must be evaluated in P~,RT 3 to determine s~gnificance. Identifying an ~mpact in ,:olumn 2 simply asks that it'be looked at further. · The Examples nrovided are. to assist the reviewer by showing t¥~es of impacts and wherever possible the threshold of magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally a ~)plicable throughout the State and for most situations. But. for any specific pro] act or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be appropriate for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3. · The imu'acts of each proiect, on each site. in each locality, will vary. Therefore, the examples are illustrative and have been offered as guidance. They do not constitute an exhaustive list of impacts and thresholds to answer each question. · The number of examples net ouestion does not indicate the importance of each question. · In identifying impacts, consider tong term. short term and cumlative effects Instruclions (Read carefully) a. Answer each of the 19 questions in PART 2 Answer Yes if there will be any impact. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers. c If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column I or 2) to indicate the potential size of the impact. If impact threshold eoua[s or exceeds any example provided, check column 2. If impact will occur but threshold is lower than example, check column 1. d. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to PART 3. e. f a potentially large impact checked in column 2 can be mitigated by change(s) in the project to a small to moderate impact, also check the Yes box in column 3. A No response indicates that sucl~ a reduction is not possible. This must be explained in Part 3. IMPACT ON LAND I Will'the proposed action result in a physical change to the oroject site?
