GREEK PEAK HOLDINGS, LLC, APPLICANT/REPUTED OWNER FOR A PROPOSED WEDDING BARN SITE PLAN REVIEW 2000 NYS ROUTE
392 TM #127.09‐03.110: DISCUSSION: Chairman Breed wanted the Cortland County Planning Board’s Resolution #21‐03 read into the
record. A summary of the resolution stated that the Cortland County Planning Department did review the materials submitted by the
town, as well as all relevant reports submitted. The County Planning Board has resolved that the County Planning Board does
recommended the approval of the application for an Aquifer Protection Permit, Site Plan Review as well as a Conditional Permit to
construct the forementioned Wedding venue barn with the following contingencies: 1. The applicant must provide renderings and
design features of the proposed facility with approval from the town. 2. The application confirms that all work will occur on Greek
Peak property and if not the proper easements and paperwork will be obtained. 3. The damaged vehicles will be removed. 4. Applicant
must file a notice of intent with NYS DEC. (Note contingencies 3 and 4 may have changed or have already been taken care of.) 5.
Applicant will obtain approval to connect to the public water and sewer and back fill prevention from the County Heath Department
and the Town. 6. Applicant will comply with SEQR and all other requirements. Tim Buhl spoke about the DEC’s concerns about a
undeveloped area’s drainage. They would like to have this area drain into the retention pond. Buhl said they will conform to their
recommendations or they will convince them it doesn’t need to be done. Buhl felt this recommendation wouldn’t change the plans
much, they may have to redirect a ditch into the retention pond that is a little deeper and or bigger that first designed. Member Taylor
said he would feel more comfortable moving forward if the DEC recommendations were already met. Buhl assured Taylor and the
board that the applicant will not be able to get a DEC permit unless they comply. Taylor asked about the recommendation of removing
or fencing in the disabled vehicles. Applicant Kryger said the vehicles will be fenced. Attorney Snyder felt that it was fine for the
Planning Board to move forward with part 2 of the SEQR and declare a negative declaration based on the conditions spelled out by
the County Planning Board. Snyder also mentioned the Town Board will have to give permission for Greek Peak to be on town property
through an agreement that he has drafted. Snyder also mentioned that the town board has asked the planning board to be the lead
agency on this project.

II of the Short Environmental Assessment Form. Negative responses were obtained to all questions in Part II. A motion was then
made by Member Lathrop that the action, based on the information submitted, will not cause any significant adverse environmental
