Said prop rties which have been sul Atted by their owners to the Lana Preservation Committee(LPC)of the Town of Southold for sale of such-rights,to the Town.The common characteristics ofthese properties and the;community in which they are situated are described below The plan under which the Town proposes to uti lint its own,and other public funds,has been reviewed and-approved by the Suffolk County Parniland Protection Board, as required.(see A griculture in the Tn n of outl:old;The Town of Southold has leen a farming community Y since its founding ovesr 350 yew ago. The ensuing years have seen many changes, most noticeably population increases and the encroachment of home building, since the early,1950"s. V The Town is located about 100 miles from the center of the New York metropolitan area and is j adjacent to:the long 1 land suburbs of'New York City.This suburban population„nearing 3,. Million,,has beers expanding eastward and has developed most ofthe farmlands of'western j of blk County and;continued exp ibn into the eastern extremity as well. Agricultural products are sh ppe to these populated areas f-om Southold Town, as-well as to other New England locations.A significant amount of farm produce is retailed from farm stands to local residents and towisp frequenting the Town.A large and thriving agricultural community e)ists.in the Town, but its`„long-term viability remains threatened by pressures of land;development. The Town comprises an area of.about 34,000 acres,tt'orn Peconic Day to Long Island. Sound,,and_,contains over 10;200 acres of agricultural land: The Town is part:of Suffolk County Agricultural,District No. 1,which encompasses about 5900 acres within town-boundaries. An hili tructureI is in place in eastern Suffolk County, to support agricultural enterprises. Offices of the Tamar bureau,Cornell Cooperative Extension, farm credit agencies and farm equipment and supply dr eters are in closaprounity. Agricultural practices are ever evolving;with wine grapes, ti vegetables, M.as,sery acrd greenhouse stock;, and sod becoming production leaders. Current statistics indicate the following:agricultural acreage and respective use, within the Town of Southold.. - 1820 acres:vegetables and fruits 1743acres:vineyards - 856acres: potatoes 1013 aeras: faClowlands - 70 acres: natr cry and tees 6eZ acres: sed, 954 acres: hay, rye and other grains lol acres:grennhou e uses 7,49 acnes-Total Plan of Work rWning Documaent::Reeognizing the inexorable encroachment ofdevelopment on farmland,. and its attendant degradation to a rural character and sense of place, the"rown Board has pursued i' a vigorous program of Agricultural 1:im&Preservation.Local Law first established the current LPC in 1983. The tasks and goals ofthe committeeare spelled out in Chapter 25—Agricultural Lands Preservation,of the Town Code(see Attachment W).Selection of candidate farmland -,parcels for preservation is,performed in accordance with Chapter 25 and a set of criteria established.by the LPG(see Attachment"B"). These factors,meet the qualifying thresholds of Section 325 of the New York State Agriculture and Markets Law.Additionally,the Town Code detaiIls.prolvbitions and restrictions on bse and/or alienation of thereby.-preserved agricultural lands. Prior Activity:In 1983,1987, 1991 and 1994,the Town of Southold voters approved bond :issues, each for.$1.75 Million and again in 1990,.1997 and 1998,each for$2..Million',to acquire farmland development.rights in.order to preserve important agricultural lands and the farthing economy,as well as other open spaces within the Town. Thusly represented($13.1Wz lion)is the serious and dedicated commitment of the community to its quality of life. P�sesent Proiect: The commitment continues. The remaining available funds ofthe.above-noted approved bond rel"er aduwaas(approximately$2.Mullion)will be applied to the costs of purchaswing the'project parcels herein listed: Furtherthe Town is working closely with third-party land trusts,,,in certain instances, where other forms of easement and fee acquisition,enhance'the development rights purchase. Additionally,the Town Board is joining in partnership with Suffolk County,to jointly s care,acquisition Costs for certain projects deemed,worthy of preservation, These approaches ellixtively"leverage" aaaore agricultural lands into preservation,,at less cost to all partners (basically, the approach represented in this.application). The ongoing program will be conducted much in the same manner as in the past. As will be shown herein., farndanl-ovaries`applications are in hand,which exceed the level of"town funding presently available, if'all were purchased, Additional applications are always fiarthcorning. :lt is expected this pattern will contirwa.te and may, accelerate dependent upon- econdinic influences, public awareness and funding. The LPC-is also commencing out-reach, initiating a solicitation of owner-applications from selected priority areas of.importanf agricultural landsin the Town.

Deliverables The Toot of Southold is ready to participate in this prograrn with the State of New York Department of Agriculture and Markets. The Town enjoys a history of successful, committed protection df its a riculuiral resources through-purchase of development rights.The above- referenc6d project parcels attest to the fact there are willing farmland owners ready to,sell such rights to tle Town.
