Lot 4, as shown on plans last revised December 18, 2015, complies with the Limited Business Zoning District's minimum lot area, lot width and lot depth requirements and would be developed with an LB use in the future(NP&V). Location: 5605 County Road 48, Mattituck Reasons/Documents Supporting This Determination: The Town of Southold Planning Board is requiring a review of the action to determine the magnitude, importance and probability of occurrence of potential impacts. A Full Environmental Assessment Form has been submitted and reviewed. The Planning Board hired the consulting firm Nelson Pope and Voorhis, LLC to perform a SEQR analysis for the proposed action. Two reports were produced and are attached as supporting documentation to this determination: The Harold R. Reeve &Sons, Inc. Four Lot Subdivision and Change of Zone Environmental Assessment Form (EAF) Parts II and III Attachment and Summary Report dated August 30, 2016 Prepared by Nelson Pope &Voorhis LLC(NP&V Report). Reeves Subdivision-Lot 4 Limited Business District Buildout Projection & Trip Generation dated 3/29/18 (Buildout and Trip Generation Report) Sections of the above referenced reports have been restated within this document. Impact Assessment: 1. Impact on Land Three of the lots (Lots 1 through 3) will be developed as single-family residences in accordance with the requirements of the Town's R-40 Zoning District. A single family residence is a permitted use in the R-40 Zoning District. 2 SEQR Page 13 October 15, 2018 A proposed Change of Zone from the General Business (B) Zone and R-40 Zoning Districts to the Limited Business (LB) Zoning Districts is proposed for Lot 4. The B zoned portion of the lot is improved with a commercial use and following rezoning of the parcel, the future use is expected to continue as commercial. The NP&V Report found that significant land use impacts from the action are not anticipated if the outlined recommendations, the requirements of the Town Code, and the standards and conditions of all required permits and approvals are followed and implemented. 2. Impact on Geological Features There are no unique or unusual land forms on site. It should be noted that Lots 1 through 3 contain slopes greater than 20% (low bank) adjacent to tidal wetlands of Mattituck Creek. Lot 4 does not contain significant areas of slopes. The slopes on lots 1 through 3 are protected by Chapter 275 Wetlands and Shorelines of the Southold Town Code and a 100' wide non-disturbance vegetated buffer. No impacts to unique or unusual geologic features will occur. 3. Impacts on Groundwater and Surface Water The parcel is located within SCDHS Groundwater Management Zone IV (GMZ IV) and not located within the boundaries of the Central Suffolk or Town of Southold Special Groundwater Protection Areas (NYSDEC Critical Environmental Areas Maps#2 and#3). Test holes were performed by McDonald Geoscience and results indicate that groundwater was encountered at 6.2' below grade. Public sewer is not available. The largest potential for adverse impacts to groundwater quality in this location could result from residential and commercial sanitary systems in unsewered areas. Impacts may also result from the application of chemicals, herbicides and pesticides on each property in close proximity to marine wetlands. Public water is available. The use of groundwater is limited to daily household consumption and irrigation. Public water is proposed to be accessed via a water main easement from Maiden Lane and from a 12" existing main located within Wickham Avenue. A Letter of Water Availability from the Suffolk County Water Authority will need to be obtained. The capacity of commercial on-site sanitary systems is limited to a density load of 600 gpd/acre (600/gpd/43,560 SF) or a maximum of 1,107 gpd, which is consistent with the preliminary projections provided by the Applicant. The exact gallons per day of water used for Lot 4 are dependent upon the use and therefore unknown. 3 SEQR Page 14 October 15, 2018 The area of Mattituck Creek where the parcel is located is an impaired water body, uncertified for shellfishing based on water quality (coliforms) and administrative shellfish restrictions due to marinas and moorings. Potential impacts to the surface water of Mattituck Creek include increasing pollutant loads from subsurface (cumulative wastewater) and surface flow(storm water). Nitrate (a form of nitrogen) is added to groundwater by septics stems in unsewered areas and lawn fertilization. Groundwater flowing to surface waters could contribute to an increase in nitrate and phosphorous resulting in low dissolved oxygen levels in Mattituck Creek and hypoxic conditions under certain environmental conditions. Hypoxia results from planktonic algae blooms feeding on nutrients. The algae die and settle to the bottom of the water body then decay, using dissolved oxygen in the process. The oxygen levels frequently fall below the levels necessary to sustain life and results in fish and shellfish die offs. Correspondingly, the planktonic algae in high densities are toxic to shellfish and finfish. New technology in sanitary waste treatment has shown that the level of nitrates can be reduced through treatment using an Alternative Onsite Wastewater Treatment System(UA OWTS). Due to the cumulative adverse impacts from sanitary waste in the Mattituck Creek watershed and close proximity of the parcel to surface waters the treating (reduction) of total nitrogen in sanitary waste, to or greater than 19mg/L is required. The applicant notified this office on April 5, 2018 that a Covenant and Restriction requiring the installation of a UA OWTS on the three residential lots (1 through 3) and the commercial lot(4) upon Suffolk County Department of Health Services approval will be filed. The Planning Board will require that the Covenant and Restriction is filed with the Office of the Suffolk County Clerk prior to any development on the parcel. Furthermore,to mitigate nutrient loading impacts and encourage water conservation the Planning Board will require that the following best management practices are also filed within the Covenant and Restriction for the residential lots: a. Require the use of native, drought-tolerant plants in landscaping. b. Require only the use of organic fertilizers where the water-soluble nitrogen is no more than 20% of the total nitrogen in the mixture. c. Require a maximum of 1 pound of nitrogen per 1,000 square feet in any one application, with a cumulative application of no more than 2 pounds per 1,000 square feet per year. d. Prohibit the application of fertilizer products containing nitrogen, phosphorus, or potassium between November 1st and April 1st. e. The use of phosphorous containing lawn fertilizer is prohibited unless establishing a new lawn or soil test shows that the lawn does not have enough phosphorus. Fertilizer labels have three bold numbers. The number in the middle is the percentage of phosphorus in the product, e.g. 22-0-15. Use of products with 0.67 in the middle or lower is not restricted. Products with a number higher than 0.67 may only be used if a new lawn is being established or a soil test indicates it is necessary. 4 SEAR Page 15 October 15, 2018 Chapter 275 Wetlands and Shorelines of the Southold Town Code requires the establishment of a 100' wetland setback to future structures on each proposed lot from the top of bank/wetland. To minimize disturbance, the establishment of a 100' wide non-disturbance buffer to preserve the existing vegetation, soils and provide storm water control will be required by the Planning Board. Access paths to Mattituck Creek will be minimized to a 4' wide and exempted from buffer requirements to further mitigate disturbance impacts to the wetlands. The Southold Board of Trustees identified this area of the creek as being shallow and pointed out that marine construction is severely restricted or prohibited. A New York State Department of Environmental Conservation NYSDEC tidal wetlands permit will be required for the subdivision. The action involves the grading of greater than one (1) acre in area coverage and a SPEDS permit and Notice of Intent from the NYSDEC will be required to control storm water and protect surface waters. The action is also subject to Chapter 236 Stormwater Management of the Southold Town Code. Adverse impacts from the three single family residences and potential, future commercial use on Lot 4 to groundwater quality, quantity and surface waters are expected to be low due to the mitigation outlined above. 5. Impact on Flooding A portion of the Lots 1 through 3 along the creek(northwest corner) and small area in the west of the site is within a FEMA AE (100-year) flood zone E18 (ERSAP Map PG and PG2). The majority of the flood zone is located on lot 3 and within the 100' structural setback required by Chapter 275 Wetlands and Shorelines of the Southold Town Code. Correspondingly, the Planning Board will require a 100' wide non-disturbance vegetated buffer on Lots 1 through 3 landward from the tidal wetland boundary to achieve a structural setback from surface waters. There is no ability to relocate lot 3 out of the flood zone. The siting of single family residences on the lots and construction design will take into account impacts from flooding. A 0.2 percent Annual Chance Flood Hazard (500 year) area occurs in the west of the parcel on portions of Lots 3 and 4. This area is subject to moderate flood hazard risk. Based on the location and area of mapped flood zones and required flood-resistant construction design, flooding risks to structures developed on lots 1 through 4 will be mitigated and therefore, adverse impacts are expected to be low. 6. Impacts on Air Air pollution can harm human health, and damage elements of the ecosystem. Exposure to air pollution is associated with numerous effects on human health, including pulmonary, cardiac, vascular, and neurological impairments. The expected future uses on the parcel include three residential structures and one commercial use in the LB Zoning District if the rezoning of the parcel is successful. 5 SEQR Page 16 October 15, 2018 No significant adverse impacts to air quality are expected to result from the action. Further review of the use on the LB zone parcel will be conducted upon application to the Planning Board for a site plan. 7. Impacts on Plants and Animals The NYSDEC Environmental Resource Mapper was referenced to determine if the parcel was mapped within a rare and endangered area. The parcel is not located within a designated area. The parcel has been previously disturbed and is now vegetated with limited, native and invasive vegetation. A 100' wide non-disturbance buffer adjacent to Mattituck Creek (included existing vegetation) is recommended to meet the purpose of Chapter 275 Wetlands and Shorelines of the Southold Town Code and protect wetlands and surface water quality. Vegetation within the buffer shall not be cleared except to gain access to public waters on Lots 1 through 3. A common access to Mattituck Creek to minimize impacts to public trust lands, waters and ecological functions is being considered. Due to the location and size of the parcel, wildlife is limited to species adapted to neighborhood settings (birds and small mammals). No evidence of protected species utilizing the site has been discovered. The potential occurrence of protected species on site is low based on past observations, location and size of the parcel Impacts to plants will occur through clearing and development of each lot. Limits of clearing will be required on the residential lots; preserving 50% of existing vegetation. Lot 4 would need to comply with the 35% landscaping requirement specified in the LB zoning district and Planning Board restrictions in site plan review. Adverse impacts on plants and animals are expected to be low. S. Impact on Agricultural Resources The parcel is not in a designated Agricultural District. There is no active agriculture or agricultural resources located on the parcel. Dominate soil groups on the parcel include Fd(Filled) in the north, PiB (Plymouth Loamy Sand 3-8 percent slopes), RhB (Riverhead and Haven soils, 0 to 8 percent slopes) and Cut and fill land, gently sloping. Lots 1 through 3 are proposed to be located on Fd, PiB and RhB soils. Lot 4 is located on RhB and Cut and Fill soils. The proposed action will result in the loss of these soil types on site to development. Adverse impacts to agricultural resources will not occur as a result of this action. 9. Impacts on Aesthetic Resources 6 SEAR Page 17 October 15, 2018 The parcel is located north of and is directly visible from Suffolk County Route 48 (CR 48), a designated New York State Scenic Byway and a scenic resource important to community. The construction of single family residences on lots 1 through 3 would be visible from CR 48, however, due to the location, clearing limits and buffers required, structures will be screened from direct view. The future development of Lot 4 would further obscure the single family residences. Impacts to aesthetic resources are expected from the future development of lot 4 however,the contemplated use on the parcel is currently unknown and therefore the scenic impacts cannot be fully assessed at this time. Parking, circulation, landscaping, screening, buffering, outdoor lighting, commercial building design, and other aspects of commercial site plan review will be explored at the time a site plan is submitted. Note that evergreen vegetative screening will be required within 25' wide transition buffers between the Residential Zoning Districts (including Residential Office) and commercial use on Lot 4 pursuant to §280-94, "Transition buffer area" of the Southold Town Code. The potential adverse impacts to aesthetic resources are expected to be low. 10. Impacts on Archeological Resources A Phase I Archeological Cultural Survey for the parcel was not required due to the lack of specific information related to the parcel, current development and previous land disturbance. 11. Impact on Open Space and Recreation The parcel is in private ownership and the site does not currently offer public open space or recreational opportunities. There are no New York State parklands located within the vicinity of the parcel. Adverse impacts to open space and recreation are expected to be low. 12. Impact on Critical Environmental Areas The parcel is not located within a Critical Environmental Area. 13. Impact on Transportation The parcel has frontage on three streets: CR 48, Wickham Avenue, and Maiden Lane. The NP&V Report indicates that sight distance at the proposed cul-de-sac's intersection with Wickham Avenue is good and the intersection of Wickham Avenue and CR 48 is currently controlled by traffic signalization. 7 SEQR Page 18 October 15, 2018 Suffolk County Route 48 is divided in this section by a median with no pass through access to the parcel from the eastbound travel lane. In the event that the Change of Zone is successful, eastbound access to Lot 4 from'CR 48 would require vehicles to make a U-turn at Wickham Avenue. A left hand turn signal exists at the intersection and would allow this maneuver. A sidewalk is located to the south of Lot 4 and extends east to the signal controlled intersection of Wickham Avenue and west to Love Lane. A sidewalk is also located along the west side of Wickham Avenue providing pedestrian access and support to future occupants of Lots 1 through 3 and commercial use on Lot 4. Access to Residential Lots Access to lots 1 through 3 is proposed from Wickham Avenue via a new curb cut and 25' wide right of way with a 16' wide stone blend road. A cul-de-sac with 50' radius is proposed as a turn around. The right of way abuts SCTM# 1000-140-1-20 which is improved with a single family residence and frame garage. To lessen adverse impacts to the parcel, the Planning Board is requiring a shift of the 25' wide right of way to the north, to create a 15'+vegetated buffer along the property line of SCTM# 1000-140-1-20. The NP&V Report indicates that the anticipated traffic generation from the three residential lots will be very low and are expected to have a negligible impact on local traffic. Moderate to large adverse impacts from accessing the lots are not expected. Commercial Lot Build Out and Trip Generation As indicated above, the Planning Board retained Nelson Pope and Voorhis LLC to conduct a buildout and trip generation analysis to provide worst case scenario projections and calculations for vehicle trips for the more intense uses allowed in the LB Zoning District: restaurant and winery. The build out analysis is hypothetical based on Town zoning regulations. Prior to the analysis,the applicant had agreed to remove the hotel use from the Change of Zone request. A restaurant use could generate the greatest number of vehicle trips to the site. Results showed that vehicle trips for a quality 520 seat(13,000 SF) sit-down restaurant are expected to be highest, with a Saturday peak hour totaling 172 vehicle trips (101 entering and 71 exiting). The second highest period would be PM Weekday Peak at 146 trips and the lowest in the AM Weekday Peak with 10 trips. A winery use on the parcel would result in a lower number of vehicle trips. Based on a worst case scenario conceptual build out with winery buildings equaling 16,000 SF [assuming 70 percent production area(9,600 SF), 10 percent wine storage (1,600 SF) and 30 8 SEQR Page 19 October 15, 2018 percent tasting/reception area, minor retail wine display/sales space, bathrooms, etc. (3,200)] and assuming 1 seat/15 SF of 3,000 SF occupancy for the tasting room, there would be 200 seats for tasting room/special event. The highest number of vehicle trips for a winery use could result from tasting room/special events with potential peak hour trips equaling 80. The vehicle trips for wine production, tasting rooms and storage are significantly less, as shown in Table 1 below. Table 1. Estimated Winery Vehicle Trips Use Peak Hour Trip Area Peak Hour Trips Generation Rates Wineries - Wine 0.97/1,000 SF 9,100 SF 9 Trips production Wineries - Wine 1.97/1,000 SF 3,000 SF 6 Trips tasting rooms Wineries - Wine 0.32/1,000 SF 1,600 SF 2 Trips storage Special Events 0.4/guest 200 Seats 80 Trips Source NP&V A large percentage of traffic that would access a future restaurant use on Lot 4 would be expected from pass-by trips involving traffic already on the roadway and making an unplanned stop. A winery use would be expected to generate some new destination trips. A lower increase in traffic activity can be expected from other, less intense commercial uses permitted in the LB Zone. These hypothetical trip generation calculations for the restaurant and winery use indicate that some impacts to transportation could occur from an increase in vehicle trips to the site; however these impacts are not expected to be significant given the overall volume of traffic on CR 48 and road design. Adverse impacts to transportation from the proposed subdivision and change of zone on Lot 4 are not expected to be significant. 14. Impact on Energy No major change in the use of either the quantity or type of energy will occur. New construction will be required to meet Energy Star standards. Compliance with Town of Southold Chapter 172 Lighting, Outdoor(dark sky) for all lighting fixtures is recommended of both commerical and resitential use. The three residential lots being created are not expected to have a significant impact on energy usage or resources. The expected adverse impacts on energy from the proposed action are low. 9 SEQR Page j 10 October 15, 2018 15. Impact on Noise, Odor, and Light Noise impacts are expected for short durations during the development(clearing, grading, and construction) of the lots. Adverse impacts from noise are expected to be short-term in duration and low from construction of the single family homes. No uses capable of causing odors on Lots 1 through 3 are expected. One street light is proposed at the end of the cul-de sac in addition to residential lighting. Adverse impacts from odor and lighting are also expected to be low. A potential commercial use on Lot 4 could result in additional impacts to the surrounding residents resulting from noise, odor and light generated by a more intense use such as winery or restaurant. Additional assessment is necessary when and if a use capable of causing noise, odors or light impacts is applied for. 16. Impact on Human Health The NP&V Report recommended that a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment be performed on site due to evidence of past disturbance and potential laundromat use. The Planning Board did not accept the recommendation based on historical information provided by the applicant. Adverse impacts to human health are expected to be low. 17. Consistency with Community Plans The expansion of the commercial zone to the northwest on lot 4 is npt entirely consistent with community plans. The County Route 48 Corridor Land Use Study(1999)was evaluated to the proposed action. In the study a recommendation was made to change the zone of the parcel from B and R-40 to the Marine II zoning district on the Town Board's own motion. The recommendation was not enacted. The study was reviewed and the recommendations were correlated to the proposed Change of Zone. Amend the Town Code with respect to the Limited Business (LB) District The Town Code is recommended to be amended to allow additional as-of- right uses in the LB zoning district. The site plan requirements associated with LB zoned properties should be amended to provide for better buffering and , screening of uses.Additionally, the architecture of a proposed structure in this district should be in conformance with surrounding area and resemble residential structures as much possible. It is unknown if and to what level amendments to the LB zoning district were made, However,the Planning Board provides buffering and screening in practice. A 25' wide transition buffer will be required between a future commercial use and residential use. 10 SEOR Page 111 October 15. 2018 Modify the Town Code to limit curb cuts to one per site unless unusual Circumstances exist. An increase in the number of curb cute typically has a negative impact on traffic flow. By limiting the number of curb cuts,particularly along County Route 48 and Sound Avenue, impacts to traffic flow are anticipated to be limited. The Planning Board limits curb cuts onto CR48. One curb cut will be required for the commercial zoned parcel meeting this recommendation. Require links between the parking areas of commercial operations to allow for vehicle movement between adjacent establishments. It is expected that a"pass through"to the property to the east will be discussed Require that subdivided residential lots access side roads and not directly to County Route 48, where appropriate.' The proposed access to the residential will not be achieved from CR 48. Orient buildings to limit the interruption of scenic vistas and views The Planning Board will analyze the building orientation and effects on scenic qualities upon receipt of a site plan. Require vegetated buffers between residential development and the roadway. Vegetated(non-disturbance or landscaped)buffers will be required between residential lots and CR48. Where appropriate, consider the use of flag lots with common drives for residential development. On July 30, 2015 a Town of Southold LWRP Coastal Consistency Review was conducted for the proposed subdivision and it was recommended that the proposed action be found "consistent"with the Town of Southold LWRP. The B zoned portion of the property; 0.6 acres or approx. 25,500 sq. ft. is located within the Mattituck Hamlet Center. The reminder of the property is excluded. The Town of Southold Hamlet Study(2005) listed one goal for the area: 1. Reconnect the waterfront with Love Lane business district. 11 SEAR Page 112 October 15, 2018 The proposed action does not directly achieve this goal. The parcel is located east of Love Lane and in private ownership. Pedestrian access has been improved with the construction of new sidewalks and pedestrian safety elements on C.R. 48. Please see the attached NP&V Report for more discussion on zoning and consistency of the action with the Southold Town Code. The potential of the proposed action to conflict with the consistency of community plans is not expected to be significant. 18. Consistency with Community Character The subdivision of three single family residential lots is consistent with the community character,which is surrounded by similar zoning and single family residences to the east and west. The change of zone of a portion of the property from B &R40 to LB is not expected to have a significant adverse impact to the community character. The B zoning that currently exists allows some degree of commercial development, and changing it to LB would also allow some degree of commercial development, though the commercial development would be expanded to a larger area. Adverse impacts are expected to not be significant due to the following: 1. The parcel to the east of Lot 4 is zoned B and improved with a commercial use. 2. A total of.5 acres of Lot 4 is zoned B (against CR 48) and a portion of the area is used commercially. The increase of the commercially zoned area from .5 acres to 1.846 acres would allow for a better designed build out of the parcel with sufficient parking, buffers and landscaping; preserving the character. A total of 35 percent of the lot area is required to be landscaped in the LB zoning district. 3. The LB zoning district allows for less intense uses, in some case, than the uses within the B Zoning District complimenting the Residential Office(RO) zones to the west and south of the subject parcel. 4. Transitional buffers will be required between the commercial and residential zoned properties. 5. The front portion of the property(0.6 acres) is located in the Mattituck Hamlet Center. The action focuses development in and around the Hamlet Center. To further protect the character, the Planning Board will minimize street lighting requirements to preserve the night sky and center the access right-of-way to establish vegetated buffers against neighboring properties. The action will create a demand for police and fire services; however,the adverse impacts to the existing systems are expected to be episodic and low. 12 SEQR Page 1 13 October 15, 2018 For Further Information: Contact Person: Mark Terry, Assistant Town Planning Director Address: P.O.

Ecological Review Vineyard View, Southold, Suffolk County, New York prepared by Nelson, Pope and Voorhis, LLC, dated August 30, 2018. (NP&V Report) 6. Vineyard View Transportation Access and Safety Review Memorandum prepared by AKRF dated September 14, 2018. 7. Letter of No-Jurisdiction: Freshwater Wetlands Act&Notification of possible Endangered Species Act Jurisdiction NYSDEC dated September 18, 2018. Consideration was also given to: 1. NYSDEC Findings Statement for Northwind Village, Kace LI, LLC (2011) This proposed action may cause a potential moderate to large adverse impact on surface and ground waters, transportation, plants and wildlife and community character; however, the impacts could be mitigated through project design and specified conditions. Relevant areas of concern include: 1. Impact on Land The parcel contains slopes greater than 15 percent adjacent to CR 48. Shallow depth to seasonal high ground water is expected due to hydrologic and soil properties on site. The proposed action will involve soil disturbance of one or more acres and must obtain coverage under the State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(SPDES) General Permit for Stormwater Discharges from Construction Activity. A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP) will be prepared and a copy will be submitted to the Lead Agency. SEAR Page 13 October 15, 2018 2. Impact on Geological Features The parcel does not contain geologic features. 3. Impacts on Water a. Surface Waters The proposed action may result in moderate to large adverse impacts on surface waters. The action involves construction and generation of storm water on a site adjoining sensitive, freshwater wetland habitat. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation(DEC) 2005 wetland delineation line by C. W. Bowman—Land Use Ecological Services and confirmed by Robert Marsh,NYSDEC was used to determine yield of the parcel. Correspondingly the DEC has issued a Letter of Non Jurisdiction on September 18, 2018 A total of 7.28 acres will be developed and 9.91 acres of the 17.19 acre site will be preserved as open space. All natural wetland systems and the NYSDEC identified significant ecological communities will be avoided and left in a natural state and vegetated, non-disturbance buffers will be established 100' landward from all wetland boundaries. An additional 10' landscaped buffer will be established landward of the 100' buffer; consequently no direct impacts to wetland habitats would occur. The Long Island Sound is located+500' north of the parcel and the Peconic Estuary is located+ 3500' to the south. Both are National Estuaries of significance. High quality, NYSDEC regulated freshwater wetlands are directly located within the south, west and east of the site. Pipes Cove/Moore's Drain, a listed New York State Significant Coastal Habitat Area(SCHA) rare in the coastal lowlands and one of the largest saltwater/freshwater wetland complexes on Long Island is located directly to the south. A supplemental report titled Ecological Review Vineyard View, Southold, Suffolk County, New York prepared by Nelson, Pope and Voorhis cites two significant ecological communities occurring on and near the site: Coastal Oak—Hickory Forest and Red-Maple Swamp White Oak Swamp. The Coastal Oak-Hickory Forest is an uncommon community type and may extend into the southeastern corner of the project site,however, it would not be located within the developed area and therefore no impact to this community type will occur. The Red Maple-Swamp White Oak Swamp was not observed on site. Secondary, moderate to large adverse impacts to the sensitive,wetland habitats resulting from construction and landscape practices and the use of pesticides and herbicides could occur and are a concern. When pesticides or herbicides are applied on or near a surface water body by commercial or recreational users moderate to large impacts could occur. Pesticides can be toxic to humans and other animals. Exposure to fish and invertebrate species to certain pesticides and herbicides could lead to death. Due to the proximity and sensitivity of the wetlands that occur on site and the connections with storm water controls, the application of synthetic pesticides and herbicides on or near surface waters are SEQR Page 14 October 15, 2018 prohibited. Best management practices and integrated pest management will be required to mitigate potential impacts as conditions. Adverse impacts from construction practices could impact habitats, including vegetation to be retained on-site. Storm water will be controlled and recharged to the ground utilizing grey and green infrastructure. Grey infrastructure consists of precast concrete leaching basins, manholes and pipe to capture and convey storm water. Green infrastructure consists of grass swales, bio-swales/raingardens and pervious pavers. A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP) will be filed meeting NYSDEC standards. The applicant has provided an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan. The following conditions will be implemented to reduce the potential for erosion and sedimentation due to construction activity to further mitigate impacts to wetlands and the surrounded. Conditions i. Sediment barriers (silt fence) will be installed in critical areas for erosion control purposes including the down-slope limit of all cleared/graded areas.No sediment from the site will be permitted to wash onto adjacent properties or roadways. ii. A stabilized construction entrance will be maintained to prevent soil and loose debris from being tracked onto adjacent roadways. The construction entrance will be maintained until the site is permanently stabilized. iii. Clearing and grading will be scheduled to minimize the size of exposed areas and the length of time areas are exposed. iv. Cleared areas, exposed soil and stockpiles will be kept stabilized through the use of temporary seeding and other measures as approved by the Planning Board and the Town Engineer. v. Drainage inlets will be protected through the use of sediment barriers and traps as required. vi. Sediment barriers and other erosion control measures will remain in place until disturbed areas are permanently stabilized. vii. Paved areas and drainage system will be cleaned and flushed out as necessary to remove any silt and debris. viii. Tree root and trunk protection protocols to prevent damage from heavy equipment shall be employed. Moderate to large adverse impacts are not expected to occur to surface waters with the implementation of the SWPPP and the required above conditions. b. Impacts on Groundwater The parcel is located within SCDHS Groundwater Management Zone IV (GMZ IV) and not located within the boundaries of the Central Suffolk or Town of Southold Special Groundwater Protection Areas (NYSDEC Critical Environmental Areas Maps 42 and#3). Potable water will be sourced from an underlying aquifer via the Suffolk County Water Authority infrastructure. SEQR Page 15 October 15, 2018 Water service will be achieved by a 4" domestic water line and dedicated 6" fire line service extended from a Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA) water line located in the front of the property along C.R. 48. No significant changes are necessary to connect. A SCWA Letter of Water Availability was received on December 4, 2017 recommending a separate well for irrigation, the use of smart irrigation controls and drought tolerant plants are also required. Correspondingly, in response to SEQR coordination, the SCWA found no appreciable impacts on groundwater that would affect their operations. An irrigation well and use of native plants were also recommended. (SCWA Letter April 23, 2018) Groundwater used for potable purposes and sanitary waste will not be discharged to the aquifer. The Greenport Sewer Treatment Plant discharges effluent to the Long Island Sound. This will result in an unavoidable net loss of groundwater. Quantity The project is expected to use 13,500 gallons/day of which 1000 gallons/day is committed to irrigation. The estimated water demand is 150 gallons/day for domestic use per unit and low flow fixtures will be employed to conserve water. Use also includes 350 gallons/minute for a fire water line. An irrigation plan has been submitted depicting the areas and types of irrigation and proposed soil moisture sensors and drip irrigation for planted vegetation water conservation measures. A total of 54,550 SF (17.4 %) is proposed to be irrigated of the 313,632 SF to be developed. Long term water supply in the Town is of concern from over-use due to irrigation and saltwater intrusion. Correspondingly, seasonal water use and the capability of the current public water infrastructure to handle the increased demand have been identified as a large concern by the Suffolk County Water Authority. Additional water conservation methods including reducing the amount of irrigated area will be required. Quality Sanitary waste disposal will be disposed of through a connection to the Greenport Sewer Treatment Plant. The Village of Greenport has provided a letter to the applicant indicating that the plant is capable and available to accept projected sanitary flow. Sanitary disposal will not result in adverse impacts to ground water quality. As discussed above adverse impacts from the use of pesticides and herbicides on-site is a concern that could result in a cumulative long-term and moderate to large impacts to groundwater. Groundwater quality shall be preserved through the following conditions on the application of pesticides and herbicides on site and the use of integrated pest management(IPM). Conditions a. Groundwater Conservation SEQR Page 16 October 15, 2018 i. A separate well(s) shall be used for all irrigation to reduce the use of water from the Suffolk County Water Authority's system. ii. The irrigation well(s) shall be situated where they will not affect the quality or quantity of water available from the private wells of nearby residents or the Suffolk County Water Authority to the satisfaction of the Planning Board. The location of the well(s) must be shown on the final site plan. iii. The well(s) shall include a meter to monitor the use of water for irrigation. A report of the number of gallons of water used each month for irrigation must be sent annually to the Planning Board. iv. The pump for the well(s) shall not create noise that measures more than 50dB at the nearest residential structure. v. Require the use of native, drought-tolerant plants and drip irrigation in landscaping. vi. An irrigation timing plan will be implemented for the site to be irrigated in phases so that sections of the site are irrigated on alternating days and the entire site is not irrigated all at the same time. This plan will be reviewed and approved by the Planning Board prior to final site plan approval. vii. An organic matter soil amendment(i.e. composted leaf mold)will be incorporated into the topsoil at a ratio of one part organic matter to two parts native topsoil, to increase its water-holding capacity. viii. Coarse mulch at a minimum depth of 3" is required on all planted material. ix. Soil moisture sensors will be used with the irrigation system,to water only when necessary during times of low soil moisture. x. Total long-term irrigation of the site will be limited to 15% of the land area of the site. xi. The use of low-flow plumbing fixtures within the residential units and the community building is required. xii. Disposal of Pharmaceuticals -Homeowners will be given notice on proper methods of disposal for pharmaceuticals and instructed not to dispose of such materials in the wastewater disposal system b. Groundwater Quality Protection L Synthetic herbicides and pesticides are prohibited. ii. The use of pesticides on and around surface waters (wetlands, storm water controls, ponding) is prohibited. iii. The application of integrated pest management is required. iv. Fertilizer will be applied only after it has been determined to be necessary by soil test, and only in the smallest amount necessary. v. Only organic-based nitrogen fertilizer with a low-Nitrogen nutrient ratio and high percentage of Water-Insoluble Nitrogen(WIN), 50 percent minimum is permitted to be used. This practice will allow for slow release of nitrogen, SEQR Page 17 October 15, 2018 driven only by biological activity, typically in soil temperatures above 55° F, and will prevent nitrogen leaching. vi. A maximum of 1 lb of nitrogen per 1000 square feet in any one application with cumulative application of no more than 2 lbs per 1,000 square feet per year is permitted. vii. The use of phosphorous containing lawn fertilizer is prohibited unless establishing a new lawn or soil test shows that the lawn does not have enough phosphorus. Fertilizer labels have three bold numbers. The number in the middle is the percentage of phosphorus in the product, e.g. 22-0-15. Use of products with 0.67 in the middle or lower is not restricted. Products with a number higher than 0.67 may only be used if a new lawn is being established or a soil test indicates it is necessary. viii. A staging area for heavy equipment, vehicle parking, materials and stockpiling, fuel storage and handling, etc. should be pre-designated and located as far from wetlands as possible. Spill protocols should be located on site in response to spill events. Adverse moderate to large impacts to groundwater quality and quantity will not occur through the implementation of the above conditions. 4. Impact on Flooding The proposed development is not located within a floodway or FEMA mapped flood zone. However, on site soils are poorly drained. The Rayham soils are described as very poorly to poorly drained and the Montauk silt loam soil demonstrates moderate, slow permeability. Site plan pages El and E2 indicate that groundwater was encountered at 8' below grade in TP-1, TP-8, TP-9 and TP-10. Results for the Boring Log indicate that water was encountered at 6' below grade. The USDA Soil Survey indicates that seasonal high water table (SHWT) from the surface usually occurs %2 to 1 V2 feet for the Rayham series; >2 feet for the Montauk soil series and>4 feet for the Riverhead and Plymouth series. The actual onsite depth to SHWT is unknown. The amended LEAF indicates that the average depth to groundwater is 8' to 10'. The risk of flooding in lower elevations and in storm water controls with these soil types properties, precipitation events and seasonal high groundwater is possible. Grade changes, over- excavation, backfilling and dewatering during construction are proposed and will be required to design the site to accommodate a 2" rainfall and make improvements. These practices together with adequately designed storm water controls will minimize the risk of periodic flooding on the site. The adverse impacts to the development from flooding are expected to be low. 5. Impacts on Air Air pollution can harm human health, and damage elements of the ecosystem. Exposure to air pollution is associated with numerous effects on human health, including pulmonary, cardiac, SEQR Page 18 October 15, 2018 vascular, and neurological impairments. The proposed use is residential and will not generate pollutants or significant emissions. No significant adverse impacts to air quality are expected to result from the action. 6. Impacts on Plants and Animals The proposed project may result in potential moderate to large adverse impacts on wildlife. Potential impacts include the clearing of 7.28 acres of vegetation; degrading and/or eliminating habitat which provides important food and coverage to species and potential reduction or elimination of species, including protected. As indicated above, a total of 9.91 acres of the 17.19-acre parcel will be left as open space comprised of 5.98 acres of upland and 3.93 acres of wetlands. A Landscape Plan has been submitted with 23 (100 percent) native trees, shrubs, perennials and grass plant species. This complies with Planning Board policy and the LWRP. The seed grass mixtures are not native due to growth habit and the location of the mixtures in the drainage systems. Native seed mixtures in areas not located within drainage systems are encouraged. Site inspection revealed that the large trees and existing vegetation provides wildlife habitat to animal species on site. The Planning Board is requiring that large trees greater than 6" inches DBH and significant trees greater than 18" DBH be retained as individuals and clusters and integrated in the site plan. The Pipes Cove/Moore's Drain area is a listed New York State Significant Coastal Habitat Area (SCHA). When the SCHA designation was placed on the area in 2005, the subject parcel was left out due to its HD zoning. The Town of Southold contains twenty-one (21) Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitats (SCFWH). These habitats are indicative of high ecological value. To designate a SCFWH, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation(DEC) evaluates the significance of coastal fish and wildlife habitat areas, and following a recommendation from the DEC, the Department of State designates and maps the specific areas. A list of the Significant Fish and Wildlife Habitats and their narratives can be found at the New York Department of State website at the following web address: http•//www dos ny gov/communitieswaterfronts/consistency/scf\vhabitats.html The site is not located within a Critical Environmental Area. The action will develop 7.28 acres of adjacent upland habitat area which provides habitat functions and values to wildlife. The impact is unavoidable and mitigation to lessen impacts to on-site plant and wildlife species is required. Excepted resident wildlife species utilizing the site include large mammals (deer), small mammals (raccoon, possum, squirrel), reptiles (turtles) SEQR Page 19 October 15. 2018 amphibians (salamanders) and various species of birds. The potential occurrence of protected species on site is moderate to high based on past observations and NYSDEC data. The NYSDEC Environmental Mapper was consulted and the entire parcel or portions thereof are located within: a. A Significant Natural Community: Moore's Drain is located directly to the south of the parcel. Proposed mitigation includes maintaining vegetated, non- disturbance buffers landward of the freshwater wetland systems and surveys to protect wildlife. NYSDEC freshwater regulated wetlands are located in the east, west and south of the parcel. All natural wetland systems and the majority of the mapped significant natural communities will remain undeveloped and left in a natural state. b. The entire parcel is included in a rare plants and animal area check zone. The parcel has been checked by the consultant firm Nelson Pope and Voorhis. Protected plants were not observed on site and the findings conclude that protected plant species (if present) would not be impacted on site due to the avoidance of disturbance within 100'of regulated wetlands. Adverse impacts to protected plants on site are therefore expected to be none too low. Protected animal species may occur on site (See below discussion). Past site data indicates that the Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina), a NYS species of special concern, was active on the parcel. The Northern long eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis), a USFWS threatened species may also be present due to suitable habitat conditions (NP&V Report). Furthermore, the sharp shinned hawk(Accipiter striatus) and Cooper's hawk -(Accipter cooperi);-both NY-S-speeies-of-special-concern-may-also-occur-onthe--- — parcel. Based on past data, observations, proximity to high quality wetland habitat and a NYDOS Significant Fish and Wildlife Habitat Area; wildlife surveys prior to clearing andrag ding shall be required as a condition to mitigate potential adverse impacts to protected species. The wildlife sweeps coupled with construction windows and best construction practices will lessen adverse impacts to non- protected and protected wildlife species. 1. Conditions a. A 100' wide non-disturbance vegetated buffer shall be established from the wetland boundary line landward for the entire length. The area shall not be cleared or graded and otherwise left in its natural state. SEAR Page 1 10 October 15, 2018 b. The non-disturbance buffer and native vegetation areas together will be managed as native vegetation and wildlife habitat. c. Trees and/or shrubs that can be left in place shall be flagged and protected during clearing and grading. d. The land area to be cleared shall be staked and inspected by the Planning Board or their designees prior to any land clearing e. Site clearing activities shall begin at CR 48 and proceed towards the open space/natural areas. f. The Planning Board office shall be notified by phone or email two days prior to clearing taking place on site. g. Wildlife sweeps conducted by a qualified wildlife biologist prior to clearing by heavy equipment will be required. h. The Planning Board will require the developer be responsible for all required vegetation to survive at least three years or be replaced. After the three years, the management company will be responsible for maintaining the vegetation as approved in the site plan. i. Eastern Box Turtle The Eastern Box Turtle, as a New York State-listed species of Special Concern, requires some measure of protection to ensure that the species does not become threatened. Species of special concern are protected wildlife pursuant to Environmental Conservation Law section 11- 0103(5)(c). The Planning Board finds that clearing can be allowed at any time of the year so long as surveys are conducted according to the protocol listed below. To minimize the loss of Eastern Box Turtles, any clearing at the site scheduled from April 15 through October 15 will be preceded by wildlife surveys following the protocol below: i. Prior to the commencement of any vegetative clearing activity, temporary turtle barriers shall be installed around the limits of work and pre-construction turtle surveys must be conducted during appropriate weather conditions. Turtle barriers are basically the same as silt fencing (without hay bales), and can likely serve both purposes. ii. Installation of the temporary turtle barriers must minimize vegetation disturbance. No clearing may occur outside the Limits of Work. SEAR Page 111 October 15, 2018 iii. The bottom of the silt fencing must be buried in a 4-6 inch deep trench. The trench must be backfilled and compacted. If it is not possible to dig a trench, then the bottom of the barrier must be affixed to the surface. iv. The silt fencing must be composed of at least 2 Meet of vertical barrier above ground. Once installed, the barrier shall be taut between the stakes. Slumps or loose materials will undermine the effectiveness of the barrier. No hay bales or other backing material shall be used. V. The limits of work must be encircled completely by the silt fence to exclude turtles from entering the area, but able to be opened for equipment to go in and out during working hours (and closed again at the end of the work day). vi. The turtle barrier(silt fencing) should be installed immediately prior to the required survey. vii. The biologist leading the survey shall inspect the barrier and facilitate any repairs/alterations necessary to ensure the integrity of the barrier. viii. Turtle barriers may not be removed from the site until that phase of the project is complete and is stabilized by vegetation. ix. Routine turtle barrier maintenance is required during the Turtle Active Season(April 1 st through October 31 st)—Once per month a person familiar with barrier maintenance and installation shall inspect the barrier and facilitate any repairs or alterations. The turtle barrier should remain taut between stakes and any holes along the bottom repaired. X. Outside the Turtle Active Season(November 1st through March 31 st)—If the barrier has been left in place over the winter months and construction is on-going, a biologist shall conduct an early season inspection in late March or early April to facilitate any repairs or alteration necessary for the barrier to function for turtle protection. xi. Surveys for Eastern Box Turtles must be led by a herpetologist or wildlife biologist with experience locating wild box turtles. xii. The survey effort required must equal the following: area of impact x 4 person-hours/acre=total person-hours of survey effort xiii. Timing of survey a. The survey for Eastern Box Turtles must be conducted immediately preceding clearing activity. b. Surveys must be conducted at the time of peak activity for turtles,to the greatest extent practicable and as advised by the herpetologist. xiv. Any box turtles found during the search will be captured and relocated to an undisturbed area on the property as far from the proposed clearing as possible. SEAR Page 1 12 October 15, 2018 xv. Documentation and results of the survey must be provided to the Planning Department as soon as possible after completion. j. Northern long-eared bat Correspondence from DEC and the New York Natural Heritage Program (NYNHP) indicates that no agency records currently exist for northern long-eared bat(Myotis septentrionalis), however, this is not a definitive assessment on the current or future use of the site by the species. Habitat on site is similar to the structure confirmed for this species. To minimize loss of northern long-eared bats, the following actions shall be taken: i. Trees around the perimeter shall be preserved within the buffer shown on the site plan. ii. Trees capable of providing roost trees outside the buffer shall be preserved to the greatest extent practicable. iii. A wildlife biologist experienced with finding bats will be deployed on site prior to any tree-clearing to search for any signs of bat roosting. iv. Prohibit tree removal during from April 1St to October 31St k. Sharp shinned hawk(Accipiter striatus) and Cooper's hawk(Accipter cooperi) These species are expected to leave the area during clearing. No mitigation to prevent impacts to the species is proposed. 6. Impact on Agricultural Resources The parcel is not in a designated Agricultural District. Dominant soils series on site include Montauk silt loam MkB (22.3 %) and Plymouth loamy sand(PIB) (23%). Development will occur mainly on MkB, Plymouth loamy sand PIB, Rayham loam(Ra) and Riverhead (RdB) soils. The soils PIB and RdB have been found to be suitable for housing developments. No adverse impacts to agricultural resources will occur as a result of this action. 7. Impacts on Aesthetic Resources The site is directly visible from CR 48, a New York State Scenic Byway. The proposed action could potentially result in moderate to large adverse impacts on scenic resources due to clearing and the development of a natural area with seven buildings. The proposed action is visible from publicly accessible vantage points seasonally and year-round by routine travel of residents and visitors. Due to concerns raised about adverse impacts to the scenic view shed, The Planning Board required the submission of a Visual Impact Study. Two separate, submissions were received. SEQR Page 113 October 15, 2018 Following the initial submission of the scenic visual analysis dated July 2, 2018 it was determined that the proposed removal of the vegetation along C.R. 48 may result in potential moderate to large adverse impacts to the scenic view shed due to the direct visibility of the proposed buildings, their positioning and scale in relation to the C.R. 48 users. Following a site inspection by the Planning Board, large trees and clusters of vegetation were requested to be retained on-site to break up the view of the buildings and result in a less obtrusive build out. A second Visual Impact Study was then submitted on August 7, 2018 showing three large trees to the west of complex entrance and two trees and a cluster of vegetation to the east that would be retained on-site as mitigation. The mitigation proposed would improve the scenic view from user groups travelling along C.R. 48, however, adverse impacts would be greater in the winter months due to lack of foliage. The Planning Board has identified that the proposed screening does not mitigate scenic impacts to the greatest extent practicable and further screening is necessary. Retaining existing vegetation to form effective screening of parking and buildings is required. The following condition is required to further mitigate adverse impacts to the scenic view shed from a state designated aesthetic resource. Condition 1. Require additional native deciduous trees such as red maple or pin oak be planted between CR 48 and the buildings to mitigate the visual impacts. 2. Retain additional existing vegetation and individual and cluster of trees on site. It is required that large trees greater than 6" inches DBH and significant trees greater than 18" DBH be retained as individuals and clusters and integrated in the site plan to the greatest extent practicable. 8. Impacts on Archeological Resources The action is located within an archeologically sensitive area and has been identified as being located in or adjacent to area archeological sites. The New York Department of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation was contacted by the applicant and department response (November 17, 2017) indicated that"no historic properties will be affected by this undertaking". Expected adverse impacts to archeological resources are expected to be none too low. 9. Impact on Open Space and Recreation The site does not currently offer public recreational opportunities. Future recreational opportunities could be achieved, however, due to the, need for affordable housing in Town, SEAR Page 114 October 15. 2018 Hamlet Density zoning, lack of direct connectivity of the parcel to population centers and environmental quality of the parcel, the likelihood of the land area being converted for active recreational use is low. Passive and active recreational opportunities do exist within the numerous parks and trail systems that surround the parcel. There are no New York State parklands located within the vicinity of the parcel. Adverse impacts to open space and recreation are expected to be low. 10. Impact on Critical Environmental Areas The site is not located within a Critical Environmental Area. 11. Impact on Transportation Access to the site is proposed via a single three lane driveway with divided ingress and egress lanes @ 15' wide each. The Planning Board has requested that the applicant redesign the driveway to accommodate larger vehicles and include two lane egresses (left hand turn and right turn lane). Correspondingly, additional requests include achieving better pedestrian connectivity with the Village of Greenport, design for future public transportation access and integrate additional traffic safety in site design. A deceleration lane for eastbound traffic and feasibility of locating a left hand turn lane for westbound traffic has been discussed A total of 104 parking spaces are proposed with 9 land banked. Built parking areas will be paved with asphalt. All parking is located on-site. The applicant has provided a report titled FEAF Supporting Narratives and Data dated February 28, 2018. The report states that the action will not substantially increase traffic above present levels or generate a substantial new demand for transportation facilities or services. However, due to the characteristics of C.R. 48, the Planning Board raised concerns about the interaction and safety of vehicles entering and exiting the site,the lack of a pedestrian/bicycle connection with the Village of Greenport, lack of availability of public transportation and potential adverse impacts from construction traffic on the Town's roadways. To further assess potential impacts, the Planning Board retained AKRF to conduct an independent review of the latest historic crash data, and provide comments on various proposed and optional access configurations in light of traffic capacity,pedestrian, bicycle and transit connectivity, and safety. AKRF prepared the Vineyard View Transportation Access and Safety Review Memorandum and found that the low volume of traffic entering and exiting the site and operation of the site driveway at CR 48 is acceptable and will not result in adverse transportation impacts. The report recommends ensuring that appropriate sight distances are maintained for the driveway by avoiding planting trees that block the view of the road from the driveway,planning for future sidewalk accommodation and adding a bus stop and bicycle signage and markings on CR 48. The full document is attached. SEAR Page 115 October 15, 2018 The applicant has agreed to include a deceleration lane for eastbound traffic. As indicated above the need for a left hand turn lane to accommodate westbound traffic was determined to be unwarranted due to road design and traffic volume. The adverse impacts to transportation are expected to be low with the following conditions. Conditions a. A deceleration lane eastbound is required. b. A bus pull off lane and bus shelter is required for school buses and future public transportation. c. An assessment of adding "share the road" signage and pavement markings or similar safety measures along CR 48 in both directions between Moore's Lane and Chapel Lane to improve the safety for cyclists traveling to and from this site is required. d. A Construction Traffic Management Plan will be required to address and adapt to changing conditions (seasonal populations, increased traffic, safety incidents (if any) and operation schedules of area schools) and address community concerns (if any). To further lessen impacts on community character including quality of life and safety; a Construction Traffic Management Plan will be required to address and adapt to changing conditions (seasonal populations, increased traffic, safety incidents (if any) and operation schedules of area schools) and address community concerns (if any). The plan will include the following and be provided to all contractors and subcontractors accessing the site about the following: i. Area speed limits; ii. School safety zones; iii. Residential neighborhoods. b. Days/hours of proposed construction activity; C. Parking areas for workers and heavy vehicles; d. Construction staging areas; e. Measures to ensure protection of land and integrity of local roadways; f. Construction Vehicle Route Designation. 12. Impact on Energy Electric will be required for general residential use. Construction of all buildings shall comply with New York State Energy Conservation Construction Code, which requires the use of the following energy efficient products in all new construction. a. Kitchen appliances; b. Bath fixtures; c. Window and doors; SEQR Page 1 16 October 15. 2018 d. Boilers; e. Air conditioning. The development or portions thereof will be constructed to LEED standards. The adverse impact on energy use is therefore, expected to be low. 13. Impact on Noise, Odor, and Light A live-in retirement facility is located to the west of the parcel and there has been some concern about noise impacts on the facility during construction. The applicant has stated that noise levels will be monitored on site during construction and corrective action would be taken in the event that significant noise is generated. A Lighting Plan&Details has been submitted showing the following. a. (23) pole lanterns @ 14' high; b. (3) single fixture pole lights @',14' high; c. (3)twin fixture pole lights @ 14' high; d. (60) wall lantern fixtures @ 14' high; e. (2) wall pack fixtures @ 14' high; Exterior lighting will be designed to be"Dark Skies" compliant and meet with Chapter 172: Lighting Outdoor of the Southold Town Code. Utilities will be located underground. Conditions The following conditions are required during.construction periods to protect the quality of life of the surrounding residential and commercial properties that could be impacted from site construction activity. a. Construction activities shall only occur from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays and Saturdays. b. No outdoor construction is permitted on Saturdays (only indoor construction) from Memorial Day to Labor Day. c. No construction activities are permitted on Sundays, year-round, or the following holidays: ■ New Year's Day ■ Memorial Day ■ Independence Day(July 4t) ■ Labor Day ■ Thanksgiving ■ Christmas Day The impact from noise, odor, and light is expected to be low. SEOR Page 1 17 October 15, 2018 14. Impact on Human Health No substantial hazard to human health will occur as a result of this proposed action. Storm water and fugitive dust will be controlled pursuant to a filed Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan. Organic best management lawn care and integrated pest management methods will be utilized. The development area is located outside of a mapped FEMA flood zone. Adverse impacts to human health are expected to be low. 15. Consistency with Community Plans The proposed action's land use components may be different from, or in sharp contrast to, current surrounding land use pattern(s) resulting in a moderate to large impact. The overall scale of the buildings and density may conflict with surrounding land uses. The action complies with the Southold Town Code. The property is zoned Hamlet Density (HD). The purpose of the district is defined as: The purpose of the Hamlet Density (HD) Residential District is to permit a mix of housing types and level of residential density appropriate to the areas in and around the major hamlet centers,particularly Mattituck, Cutchogue, Southold, Orient and the Village of Greenport. The proposed 50 unit workforce/affordable housing multiple dwelling complex is located to the west of the Village of Greenport and is consistent with the above purpose of the zoning district. Further the workforce housing component of the development meets an important Town goal to increase the number of workforce housing units within Town. The affordability structure is as follows: 100% or 50 of the units will be workforce housing for a period of 50 years. 50% or 25 of the units will be available for workforce housing into perpetuity at 80% Average Median Income (AMI) The property is not directly located directly adjacent to improved residential properties; to the east is a vacant f7.5 acre parcel in the R-80 zoning district. The remaining three sides of the subject parcel (SE,S,W) are adjacent to a±195 acre parcel owned by the Village of Greenport (Moore's Drain), largely undeveloped woodland, that extends to Moore's Lane and includes Village facilities such as the sewer treatment plant and recreational fields. Opposite from the subject parcel are±8 residential lots on the north side of CR 48 within the R-80 zoning district. The HD zone allowable density and project design is in contrast to the surrounding low density R-80 zoning districts,however, both zones are intended for residential use. The proposed multiple dwelling buildings are designed to be taller and larger than surrounding single family residences in the area. Other surrounding uses include a live in retirement center to the west and a seasonal campground to the east. Due to concerns raised about the design and multiple dwelling use, an interpretation from the Town of Southold Zoning Board of Appeals was requested by the Planning Board. On July 19, 2018, the Town of Southold Zoning Board of Appeals issued a determination upholding the interpretation by the Planning Board that the use is permitted. SEQR Page 1 18 October 15, 2018 The proposed action was recommended as consistent with the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program in a June 7, 2018 memorandum to the Planning Board. The applicant has stated that all guidelines contained within the Scenic Southold Corridor Management Area plan will'be adhered to preserve the rural character(FEAF Narrative). The affordability component of the proposedaction, use and HD zoning and the design of the development are not significantly inconsistent with adopted community plans. 16. Consistency with Community Character The action will increase the availability of affordable housing in the Town resulting in a positive impact. There are no structures of historic importance on-site and the enjoyment of public resources will not be adversely impacted. The development of the parcel is not fully consistent with the existing natural landscape (wooded parcel)however; avoidance of sensitive environments and required mitigation as described above will be imposed as conditions. The action is expected to create a demand for police and fire services; however, the impacts to the existing systems are expected to be low for the proposed residential use. The proposed development is not expected to result in significant impacts to the Greenport School District. Conditioned Negative Declaration A Conditioned Negative Declaration is required to reduce potential moderate to high impacts on plants and wildlife,transportation safety, surface waters (wetlands), ground water quality and community character included quality of life.

Carmody,P.E. and Luti Zhang Date: September 14,2018,2018 Re: Vineyard View Transportation Access and Safety Review At the request of the Town of Southold Planning Board, AKRF, Inc. ("AKRF") is presenting this memorandum to assess the transportation access and safety of the proposed 50-unit Vineyard View residential project at 62600 Suffolk County Route (CR) 48 ("proposed project"). Safety and projected traffic conditions at and near the access point have been evaluated, and concerns and recommendations have been included. A single access point to CR 48 has been proposed which would have one entering lane and one exiting lane on the driveway; the cross section of CR 48 at this point would not be improved and would remain at one lane per direction with approximately seven-foot wide paved shoulders. CRASH HISTORY The most recent three years of available crash data from NYSDOT from 2014 through 2017 was used to assess the safety conditions near the study area. Five crashes took place in the 0.3 mile segment around the intersection of site driveway and CR 48 during this period. In consideration of the latest average annual daily traffic in the study area, the segment crash rate is 1.2 crashes per million vehicle miles (MVM), which is lower than the latest average segment crash rate for this type of roadway (2.1 crashes per MVM), according to NYSDOT. When considering the existing traffic volumes at the proposed intersection, the additional traffic generated by the proposed project would not exceed the average highway crash rate. Therefore, there is not a fixture safety concern at the intersection related to the additional traffic generated by the proposed project according to the calculated versus expected average crash rate. TRAFFIC CONDITIONS Appendices in the Final Environmental Assessment Form (FEAF) Study show the turning movements at the study Intersection for weekday AM, PM and Saturday peak hours. These volumes indicate average two-way volunnes of 1.292 vehicles per horn- on CR 48. According to traffic capacity analysis software results provided in the FEAF, the projected traffic entering the proposed project turning lett from westbound CR 48 will have lower delays and more easily find gaps in the oncoming traffic flow compared with vehicles exiting the site. However. it is not anticipated that vehicles enterin�.z or exiting the site would experience high enough delays that motorists Would be forced to enter or cross traffic flow with an inadequate gap. It should be noted that the applicants traffic consultant assumcd more New York City• Hudson Valley Region 9 Capital District• Long Island 9 Baltimore/Washington Area • New Jersey. Philadelphia Town of Southold—Vineyard View 2 September 14,2018 conservative conditions to reflect the platooning effect of vehicles exiting the Cross Sound Ferry at Orient Point and passing by the site on westbound CR 48 in a platoon. Under the projected future traffic conditions, the only unacceptable level of service (LOS) reported was exiting the site driveway during the weekday PM peak hour, which would operates at LOS E for fixture conditions consisting of an average of approximately 38 seconds of delay per vehicle. However, the traffic flows from the site would relatively low during that peak hour, with eight vehicles per hour turning left and six vehicles per hour turning right,which would not cause a queuing issue along the site driveway. Also,this unacceptable delay would not affect CR 48 safety or traffic conditions. Therefore, based on the projected delays of vehicles entering and exiting the site and relatively low volume of site-generated trips during peak hours, there are not traffic safety concerns related to traffic delays and capacity on CR 48 at the driveway location. CR 48 LEFT TURN LANE STUDY CR 48 near proposed project site consists of one travel lane and a paved shoulder in each direction,with a paved width that varies from 35 to 37 feet. The FEAF states that a dedicated left-turn lane on westbound CR 48 at the site driveway is not needed. An independent study of the left-turn lane feasibility has been conducted by AKRF,which supports the initial conclusion; additional information is provided below. According to the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-only Document 193 titled "Development of Left-Turn Lane Warrants for Unsignalized Intersections," the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) considers the volume of left turns compared to oncoming traffic, crash history, potential for additional crashes due to volume or operating speeds, sight distance, cost, and right-of-way impacts. This is also shown in the NYSDOT Highway Design Manual Chapter 5, Basic Design. To determine whether the traffic volume warrants a dedicated left-turn lane, NYSDOT refers to Table 9-23 titled "Guide for Left-Turn Lanes on Two-Lane Highway" in the 2011 AASHTO Green Book (American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials "A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets"). This table was consulted, and the projected volumes for the driveway and CR 48 do not fall into the range of this table since the left-turn volumes are too low. In addition, the 1967 publication from the Transportation Research Board titled "Volume Warrants for Left-Turn Storage Lanes at Unsignalized Grade intersections" which is the basis for the 2011 AASHTO Green Book left- turn lane volume warrant table was consulted since it contains additional volume tables. Per that publication, the minimum percentage of left-turn traffic as a proportion of through plus left turn traffic on an approach where a left-turn lane may be considered is five percent. Since the corresponding percentage is only about one percent for the proposed project,this falls below the additional volume warrants. SIGHT DISTANCES AT PROPOSED DRIVEWAY The FEAF states that there is adequate sight distance per the design speed and speed limit along CR 48 at the proposed driveway location, and AKRF concurs with this assessment. The site development plan dated February 23, 2018 indicates that a sign and plantings will be placed along the site frontage. To ensure that appropriate sight distances are maintained, it is recommended that vegetation and other obstructions not be placed in the line of sight along CR 48 near the proposed project site driveway. TRANSIT,PEDESTRIAN,AND BICYCLE CONNECTIVITY The FEAF states that the applicant is willing to accommodate any shuttle or trolley service within their site for pick-up/drop-off activity to provide connections to the LIRR Greenport Station. Also, the site development plan dated February 23. 2018 shows 15-foot wide entry and exit lanes at CR 48 and interior roadways of at least 24 feet wide, which Should safely accommodate pedestrians and cyclists along with vehicles given the low hourly traffic volume projections. The 15-foot wide entry and exit lanes, combined with the paved shoulders along CR 48 should also provide ample maneuverability for trucks accessing the site for deliveries or residents moving. There are also bike racks and marked crosswalks shown on the site plans to promote and facilitate walking and bilin`_ for the future residents. However. the roads connecting i Town of Southold—Vineyard View 3 September l4,2018 the proposed site to existing transit and bike routes do not provide accommodations for pedestrians or cyclists, and additional connectivity improveme►hts are recommended off-site. According to Suffolk County Transit, the S92 us stop that is closest to the proposed project is at Front Street and 9th Street in the Village of Greenport, which is about 1.4 miles away. To increase transit connectivity to the proposed project, it is recommended that a new S92 bus stop be added at Chapel Lane and Main Road, which would reduce the distance to the nearest bus stop to approximately 0.7 miles, or a 15-irinute walk. i Pedestrians are permitted to walk along CR 48', and the paved shoulders can accommodate pedestrians and allow them to travel along CR 48 without llencroaching on vehicular traffic in the travel lanes. It is unlikely in the foreseeable future that developmpnt density in this area of CR 48 would justify sidewalks. Therefore, if the proposed project did not build sidewalks along its frontage, it is unlikely that there would be sidewalks built nearby in the foreseeable future, causing a gap in the sidewalk network. However, since sidewalks provide additional safety andi accessibility benefits compared to paved shoulders to pedestrians, it is recommended that space for future accommodation for sidewalks along CR 48 is considered. Cyclists are also permitted to travel along CR 48, and this portion of CR 48 is designated as part of the Seaview Trails Bike Route,yet there are no sighs or markings to indicate so. To promote cycling as a way to access the proposed project, increase the visibility of cyclists to motorists, and provide wayfinding to cyclists, it is,recommended that signage and bike markings be considered along CR 48 in the area of the proposed project. CONCLUSION Based on an independent assessment conducted by AKRF of the projected low vehicular peak hour volumes that would be generated by the proposed project, through traffic along CR 48, existing and proposed geometries, and crash history, the proposed access configuration and operation of the site driveway at CR 48 is acceptable. The access point as currently proposed should safely accommodate pedestrian, bicycle and auto/taxi traffic generated by residents, trucks regularly accessing the site for residents moving or deliveries, or a shuttle/trolley stop to provide access to the LIRR Greenport Station. I Recommendations include leaving room along the site frontage on CR 48 for appropriate sight distances and potential future sidewalk accommodation, adding an S92 bus stop closer to the proposed project at Chapel Lane and Main Road, and adding bicyciile signage and markings on CR 48 in the vicinity of the site. li it i .I i JI I Agency Use Only [IfApplicable] Project Vineyard View Date IOctober 15,2018 Full Environmental Assessment Form Part 3-Evaluation of the Magnitude and Importance of Project Impacts and Determination of Significance Part 3 provides the reasons in support of the determination of significance.
