Re: Review Pursuant to §239 -1 and-m of the New York State General Municipal Law
Action: Establishment of a Planned Development Zone,Highland Farms Dog boarding Facility,
Tax Parcel No. 8.-1-12.15
Dear Ms. Beeners:
This letter acknowledges your referral of the proposal identified above for review and comment by the
Tompkins County Planning Depai tiuent pursuant to §239 -1 and -m of the New York State General
Municipal Law. The Department has reviewed the proposal, as submitted, and has determined that it has
no negative inter-community, or county-wide impacts.
The Department offers the following comment on this proposal:
In lieu of establishing a Planned Development Zone, we recommend an amendment to the town's zoning
ordinance that would allow kennels/boarding facilities by special permit in districts determined to be
generally appropriate for such use. This would provide for some discretionary review while maintaining
consistency with the underlying zoning district and the comprehensive plan. A special permitted use
would ensure that the zoning ordinance is applied in a consistent manner when future requests arise and
also allow for greater flexibility in redeveloping the site within the context of the neighboring properties
and the existing zoning if the kennel were to close.
Please inform us of your decision so that we can make it a part of the record.
Sincerely,
Edward C. Marx, AICP
Commissioner of Planning

From:
Jim Hovanec
108 Olde Towne Road,
Ithaca, NY 14850
Re: Proposed local law for planned development zone on West Miller Road, Town
of Danby.
To the Danby Town Board:
I am the co-owner of the property at 182 West Miller Road along with my brothers
and mother. The property has been in our family for 55 years and will be on the
real estate market in the future. My concerns for the proposed dog kennel at 158
West Miller Road are the noise/ smell that such a facility could potentially produce
and the impact of existing property values in the area. Our property is located
immediately West of the proposed facility. I feel that a business of this nature could
also have a negative effect not only on the surrounding properties but also on future
development of nearby raw acreage.
I have read the "FINAL DRAFT LOCAL LAW NO. 1 OF 2004" and understand that most
of these issues have been addressed on paper but I am very skeptical of the "real
life" out come. Dogs by nature bark and they won't always be inside. When inside
will the building be sound proof? Is it air-conditioned so that all of the windows will
be closed at night as well as during business hours? When prospective buyers look
at surrounding real estate and see a "dog kennel" sign, what will be there reaction?
I like dogs and the Gray's. Tom and Janet have always been good neighbors and I
believe that their intentions are pure. However, I'm not in favor of putting 22 dogs
in the middle of an older, quiet, established residential neighborhood. It is at best
short sited and at worst disastrous to surrounding homes/land values.
I ask that the Town Board of the Town of Danby to take a hard look before
approval of this proposal while thinking of the long term effect on surrounding
properties.
Sincerely,

Final draft reviewed by Town Board April 12, 2004. Quantity of runs in preexisting kennel
corrected from 6 to the actual 3.
A LOCAL LAW TO AMEND THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO ESTABLISH PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT ZONE 18
Section 1. The Zoning Ordinance of the Town of Danby as re-enacted, and re-adopted by the
Town Board on December 11, 1991, and subsequently amended, is further amended as follows:
1. Town of Danby Planned Development Zone 18 is hereby established, and shall be
comprised of Town of Danby Tax Parcel 8.-1-12.15, located on the north side of West Miller
Road, as shown on maps entitled "Attachment `A', Proposed Planned Development Zone";
"Attachment `C', Site Plan, Proposed `Highland Farms' Planned Development Zone"; and
"Attachment `D', Detail Plan, Proposed Planned Development Zone, `Highland Farms"; which
maps are referenced as the general site plans herein.
2. The area described in Schedule A attached is hereby rezoned from Low Density
Residential Zone to Planned Development Zone 18.
3. The Zoning Map of the Town of Danby, and the Supplement to the Zoning Map, are
hereby amended to show the location and boundaries of Planned Development Zone 18 as set
forth in this local law.
4. Planned Development Zone 18 shall be subject to the following provisions,
notwithstanding any other pertinent zoning, subdivision, or other regulatory requirements:
(a) Permitted principal and accessory uses, and uses permitted by Special Permit,
along with yards, signs, height, and building area requirements, shall be the same as those
permitted in a Low Density Residential Zone, except that in addition to such, a kennel
facility shall be permitted, upon approval of the site plan and issuance of a Special Permit
by the Planning Board, subject to the following conditions and provisions:
(b) Upon approval of the site plan and issuance of a Special Permit, a kennel facility
shall be permitted, as currently proposed as follows:
a preexisting boarding kennel consisting of 3 indoor/outdoor runs and an
outdoor exercise yard, and a new boarding kennel consisting of 10
indoor/outdoor runs and an outdoor exercise yard, with accessory sales of
dog food, bedding, and other dog-related supplies, as shown on the general
site plans reviewed by the Town Board in conjunction with enacting this
local law. Any such kennel facility shall be subject to the following
additional conditions and provisions described in this local law.
(c) Any Special Permit for a kennel facility or any renewed Special Permit for a
kennel facility shall expire at the 5-year anniversary date of its issuance. The Planning
Board may, following public hearing, grant renewed Special Permit(s) for a kennel •
facility, if an application for a renewed Special Permit is made prior to such expiration
date(s).
(d) The Special Permit for a kennel facility in Planned Development Zone 18 shall be
personal to Thomas and Janet Gray, doing business as Highland Farms, L.L.C., and shall
not be transferable unless a Special Permit for a kennel facility is granted to a successor
in interest following Public Hearing.
(e) As part of any application for a Special Permit related to a kennel facility, and
prior to any transfer of an interest in the property or a portion of the property located in
Planned Development Zone 18, for any use whatsoever, the owner of said property or an
operator of any kennel facility in said zone will provide written proof to the Planning
Board that the purchaser has been informed that the parcel to be purchased is within
Planned Development Zone 18 and that said purchaser has been provided with a copy of
this Local Law, and with all subsequent decisions of the Town Planning Board and Town
Board related to actions within this Zone, and said purchaser will provide the Planning
Board with written confirmation that he/she understands the requirements of Planned
Development Zone 18 and will abide by any requirements related to the use of that Zone.
(f) The conditions and provisions of this local law shall be binding on all present and
future successor owners and/or operators of any kennel facility within the Zone. Such
owners and/or operators of the kennel facility shall file this Local Law, and any
subsequent decisions of the Town related to the granting of Special Permits for a kennel
facility, in the office of the Tompkins County Clerk.
(g) In addition, any kennel facility approved for this Zone shall be subject to the
following requirements:
(i) The delivery and pickup of dogs shall be by appointment.
(ii.) An attendant shall be present at the kennel facility at least between the
hours of 8:00 a.m and 6:00 p.m.
(iii) No dogs shall be in exterior areas of the kennel facility unless the
attendant is on the premises.
(iv) No dogs shall be kept in exterior areas of the kennel facility between
sunset and sunrise.
(v) Barking dogs outside shall be promptly placed in the inside kennels, and
placed outside again only after it is reasonably ascertained by the kennel facility
operators that the barking will not resume. For purposes of this local law, the
following shall be used as criteria in defming the term `barking dog':
'Barking Dog' shall mean:
(a.)a dog that barks, bays, cries, howls, or makes any other noise
continuously and/or incessantly for a period of ten minutes or barks
intermittently for '/2 hour or more to the disturbance of any person at
any time of day or night; or
(b.)a dog that engages in such habitual or continued barking, howling or
whining so as to cause a person's rest to be broken, his sleep to be
interrupted or the reasonable use or enjoyment of his home or property
to be otherwise interfered with, disturbed or diminished or that causes
a person to otherwise be harassed, annoyed or disturbed; provided,
however, that a dog shall not be deemed a `barking dog' for purposes
of this local law, if, at the time the dog is barking or making any other
noise, a person is trespassing or threatening to trespass on the subject
property, or for any other legitimate cause which teased or provoked
the dog.
(vi) The kennel facility shall also be subject to the provisions of Town of
Danby Local Law No. 1 of the Year 1984, "A Local Law Regulating and
Controlling the Activities of Dogs in the Town of Danby, to be Known as
the `Dog Control Law' and Supersedes Local Law Number 1 of the Year
1976", and any successor amendment.
(vii) The kennel facility shall be operated in a safe, sanitary, and humane
condition.
(viii) The new kennel shall not contain more than 22 dogs at any one time.
(ix) The existing kennel shall not contain more than 4 dogs at any one time.
(x) The owners and operators of the kennel facility shall at all times keep and
maintain on the premises accurate records of the identities of all dogs kept on the
premises, and the number of dogs on the premises on each day.
(xi) The kennel shall not be used for the breeding of dogs.
(xii) Accessory sales of dog food, bedding, and other supplies shall be by
appointment, and shall be limited to the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
(xiii) A freestanding sign identifying the facility may be located on the subject
property. Such a sign shall be no larger than 10 square feet, and may be
illuminated but not flashing. Any illumination shall have the lights shielded as
much as practicable to direct the lights only at the sign.
(xiv) The construction and location of the proposed new kennel shall be as
shown on the fmal site plans approved by the Planning Board, which final site
plans shall be substantially in accord with the general site plans referred to above.
No alteration, amendment, or change in the final site plans as approved by the
Planning Board shall be permitted without further approval by the Planning
Board, except as provided in the Zoning Ordinance relative to modifications to
site plans, except that no construction or alteration of more than 500 square feet of
enclosed space, whether on one or more stories, and no enlargement of an existing
or a new kennel building that involves an increase of more than 5% of the square
footage of the building plans reviewed by the Town Board in conjunction with
enactment of this local law, shall be permitted unless a modified Special Permit is
granted by the Planning Board.
Section 2. Where there is a conflict on a specific matter between the provisions of Section
603, "Commercial Target Area" and the provisions of this local law, the provisions of this local
law shall govern.
Section 3. In the event that any portion of this law is declared invalid by a court of
competent jurisdiction, the validity of the remaining portions shall not be affected by such
declaration of invalidity.
Section 4. This law shall take effect 20 days after its adoption or the date it is filed in the
Office of the Secretary of State of the State of New York, whichever is later.

617.20: Appendix A
State Environmental Quality Review
FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM
Purpose: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an orderly manner, whether a project or action may
be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a
project that are subjective or unmeasurable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little or no formal
knowledge of the environment or may not 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 question 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 enough to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action.
Full EAF Components:The full EAF is comprised of three parts:
Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project 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. It provides guidance as
to whether an impact 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
actually important.
THIS AREA FOR LEAD AGENCY USE ONLY
DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE -- Type 1 and Unlisted Actions
Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: X Part 1 X 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 magnitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the lead
agency that:
A. The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not have a
significant impact on the environment,therefore a negative declaration will be prepared.
B. Although the project 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 in 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 is only valid for Unlisted Actions

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.

Noise Abatement
Highland Farms - Proposal for Dog Boarding Kennel
These are the features of the project that will minimize noise:
• Pick up and drop off of dogs will be by appointment(so that existing and new dogs
will generally be controlled at those times)
• The kennel will be at least 200 feet from neighboring residences.
• The site slopes down towards the north/northeast,where there are no residences.
• Existing tree and shrubs will be retained on most of the site, and new spruce trees
will be planted along the driveway and kennel fencing.
• Outdoors,the kennel runs will have concrete block walls, between 4 and 5 feet in
height. These runs will also have roof overhangs over the full length of the runs..
These features would contribute to both deterring dog interaction, and providing
sound attenuation.
• Indoors, sound abatement features will include the solid wall between each section of
five runs reducing interaction,and rubber floor mats in each kennels.
• Noise absorption panels will be hung in the inside kennels.
• Kennels will be heated and air-conditioned.
• Kennel area will not have windows,but light tunnels through the roof.
• At least RI9 rated insulation in walls and R30 rated insulation in ceiling.
• Full time attendant. No dogs will be outside unless attendant is on premises. Dogs
under control at all times. Barking dogs will be immediately put in the inside
kennels. No dogs will be in outside kennels after sunset.

PART 2 - PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE
Responsibility of Lead Agency
General Information (Read Carefully)
• In completing the form the reviewer should be guided by the question: Have my responses and determinations been
reasonable?The reviewer is not expected to be an expert environmental analyst.
• The Examples provided are to assist the reviewer by showing types of impacts and wherever possible the threshold
of magnitude that would trigger a response in column 2. The examples are generally applicable throughout the State
and for most situations. But, for any specific project or site other examples and/or lower thresholds may be
appropriate for a Potential Large Impact response, thus requiring evaluation in Part 3.
• The impacts of each project, 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 per question does not indicate the importance of each question.
• In identifying impacts, consider long term, short term and cumulative effects.
Instructions (Read carefully)
a. Answer each of the 20 questions in PART 2. Answer Yes if there will be any impact.
b. Maybe answers should be considered as Yes answers.
c. If answering Yes to a question then check the appropriate box (column 1 or 2)to indicate the potential size of
the impact. If impact threshold equals or exceeds any example provided, check column 2. If impact will occur
but threshold is lower than example, check column 1.
d. Identifying that an Impact will be potentially large (column 2) does not mean that it is also necessarily
significant.Any large impact must be evaluated in PART 3 to determine significance. Identifying an impact in
column 2 simply asks that it be looked at further.
e. If reviewer has doubt about size of the impact then consider the impact as potentially large and proceed to
PART 3.
f. If 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 such a reduction is not
possible. This must be explained in Part 3.

NOISE IMPACT
Would proposed action produce operating noise exceeding the local ambient noise levels for
noise outside of structures?
Presently there is no specific information quantifying existing local ambient noise levels, or the
exterior noise potentially generated by the kennel. The applicants have indicated that any such
quantification would be very difficult given the wide variety of dog types, and have not found any
useful quantification for noise outside kennels in their research.
The proposed design and management of the kennel are expected to control noise so that it would
probably be limited to the small to moderate impact of occasional and sporadic outside dog
barking during daytime hours.
The project would require Town Board waiver of Section 701 of the Town of Danby Zoning
Ordinance, "Limitation of Uses within 200 Feet of a Residence Zone", which states that"No
theater, dance hall,tavern, restaurant, bowling alley, skating rink, veterinary hospital, kennel, or
other place for the boarding of animals, garage of shop for the painting of repairing of automobile
bodies of fenders, or any other use causing loud or unusual noise, fumes, or odors shall be located
within 200 feet of any Residence Zone."
The proposed new kennel would conform to this Section with respect to having a 275+/-ft.
distance from the proposed zone boundary at the centerline of West Miller Road, but would not
conform in its distances from side property lines. The new kennel building and outside runs
would be 200 feet or more from the applicants' residence, and 275 feet or more from the nearest
adjacent residence(Bargher). From an elevation standpoint, the kennel site appears to be around
10 feet lower than the Bargher residence. Distances from other nearby residences would be
around 500 feet to the southwest(Hovanec), and around 450 feet to the southeast(Parks). Other
adjacent land is farmland(Mosher, Van De Mark).
The new kennel could conceivably be moved further to the north, but the applicants have
indicated that such would incur additional expense related to driveway construction and water
supply from an existing well at their residence.
The existing kennel, located at the rear of an existing garage, is around 220 feet from the Bargher
residence and around 430 feet from the Parks residence.
Provided that the project complies with the design and management proposed, and that such is
adequately enforced, no significant adverse impact with respect to noise is expected.
IMPACT ON GROWTH AND CHARACTER OF COMMUNITY OR NEIGHBORHOOD
Would proposed action conflict with officially adopted plans or goals?
Zoning Ordinance:
The project would conflict with the provisions of Section 701 of the Zoning Ordinance,
"Limitation of Uses within 200 Feet of a Residence Zone", where kennels along with certain
other uses are required to be located at least 200 feet away from a Residence Zone. Refer to notes
on this matter above under Noise Impacts. The Town Board, in establishing a Planned
Development Zone, could waive this requirement if it determined that the project could not
practically conform to the requirement, and if it determined that, as proposed, the project would
not cause loud or unusual noise.
Other areas noted in the Zoning Ordinance include the following:
The existing zoning for the property is Low Density Residential Zone. The purpose of
this zone(Section 600) is "to provide an area of limited development where it is deemed
most desirable in the Town to maintain larger lots for development and permit the
possibility of continued agricultural use of the areas without limiting the areas to solely
agricultural uses".
Customary agricultural uses are permitted in Low Density Residential Zones. Such
agricultural uses include but are not limited to management of land for agriculture, and
the raising of cows, horses, pigs, poultry and other livestock. State right-to-farm
provisions would prohibit unreasonable restriction of these uses. The Town has not had
the occasion to attempt to apply Section 701 to any agricultural uses.
2003 Comprehensive Plan:
The project site is close to, but outside of the areas designated as High and Medium Density
Residential Zones. It is primarily surrounded by farmland. Boarding kennels are not specifically
mentioned in the Comprehensive Plan, but the Plan does include as strategies the following:
LU 1.1.1 Maintain and enhance the traditional settlement patterns of the Central
and West Danby hamlets by designating areas for high density, clustered residential,
business, and community oriented development in or near these hamlets.
LU1.2.2 Discourage commercial strip development by locating businesses as
close to the hamlets as possible and, where appropriate, by encouraging flexibility in lot
dimensions and site design.
C3.3.2 Revise zoning ordinance to allow the integration of compatible small
business uses in traditional neighborhood areas near the hamlet centers.
LU 1.1.5 Restrict development in areas of active agriculture, and in historically
important agricultural lands through special agricultural zoning, site plan controls, or
clustered subdivisions.
In the report, "Historic Farm Resources in the Town of Danby", by John
Lewis,November 2001,which is described in the Comprehensive Plan,the
farmland owned by Mosher that adjoins the project site was recommended to be
of high priority with respect to historic farm significance and contribution to rural
character. Farmland to the north and east of the project site(Voss, Van De
Mark)was recommended to be of significant interest.
The project as proposed, on 8.33+/-acres, would have no apparent
adverse impact on the character of this farmland, and would be consistent with
the above Land Use strategy. While the Town has not completely implemented
this strategy, it is unlikely that lands adjacent to the project site would be
extensively developed in the future.
AGRICULTURAL DATA STATEMENT
In accordance with Town Law Section 283-a, an Agricultural Data Statement is
required to be compiled, to assist in evaluating the impacts of proposed development
projects in Agricultural Districts on farm operations. This statement is being mailed to
the owners of farm properties within 500 feet of the boundaries of the proposed
development project identified below. It is also being provided to the Tompkins County
Department of Planning.
Project Name: "Proposed Highland Farms Dog Boarding Facility"
Project Description:
Application for establishment of a Planned Development Zone for the proposed
"Highland Farms Dog Boarding Facility", proposed to consist of a new kennel with 10
indoor/outdoor runs, and a preexisting kennel with 3 indoor/outdoor runs, on Town of
Danby Tax Parcel No. 8.-1-12.15, 8.33+/- acres total, on West Miller Road, currently in a
Low Density Residential Zone. Tom and Janet Gray, applicants.
Applicants: Tom and Janet Gray, 158 West Miller Road, Ithaca, NY 14850
Farm owners within 500 feet of the boundaries of the project:
(Tax Parcel 8.-1-12.12)
Carl and Barbara Mosher
190 West Miller Road
Ithaca,NY 14850
(Tax Parcel 8.-1-5.2)
John and Marjory Van De Mark
411 Comfort Road
Ithaca, NY 14850
Project assessment related to impact on farm operations:
The property proposed for the kennel is inactive farmland. The kennel would be
located at least 100 feet from farmland owned by Mosher to the east and west,and at
least 500 feet from farmland owned by Van De Mark to the north. The kennel would be
around 1000 feet from farm buildings. Physical changes related to site construction for
the kennel would be site localized and are not expected to have any impact on farm
drainage. Animal wastes generated at the kennel would be disposed of according to
County Health Department standards. Noise generated by the kennel is proposed by the
applicants to be controlled.
