After consideration of potential environmental impacts reviewed in accord with Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law of the State of New York and Regulations promulgated thereunder (“SEQRA”), including 6 NYCRR § 617.7(c), the Town Board, as Lead Agency, has found and determined that: (i) the proposed action — forming CWDX5—will have no moderate or significant negative environmental consequences; (ii) this declaration was made in accord with SEQRA, including based upon a thorough review of the EAF and other documents prepared and submitted with respect to this proposed action and its environmental review, a thorough review of potential relevant areas of environmental concern to determine if the proposed action may have a moderate or significant adverse impact on the environment, and the completion of the EAF on the record, including the findings noted therein; (iii) a negative determination of environmental significance is hereby issued, and an environmental impact statement is therefore not required; and (iv) responsible officer of the Town complete and sign the determination of significance confirming the foregoing Negative Declaration, which fully completed and signed EAF is incorporated herein by reference. 2.

He reported, the normal protocol is about 75% in favor, which was the original count. More residents, in favor of the district, have been added since the beginning. Supervisor, Edward LaVigne, stated this may go to a vote and then the majority rules. He reported, residents have thirty (30) days to bring in a petition. Town Counsel, Guy Krogh, explained the election process for a special district. Only people in the Town’s Special District vote and it is based on the last completed assessment role. The County is not involved in a special district election; the Town does all the work. It is expensive to run a special district election. If the special district passes, all of the expenses become a cost to the special district. At a minimum, the residents in the special district are notified by publication in the Ithaca Journal. It might be a good idea to send a letter to everyone in the special district. The Town will comply with the Election Law and Town Law Article 6 & 7. Joint property owners (example husband and wife) will have two (2) votes.

TOMPKINS COUNTY REPRESENTATIVE – MIKE SIGLER Reviewed the following with the Town Board and the report was available as a handout. Tompkins County Legislator Michael Sigler June 20, 2018 Hello and thank you for having me again. I have a ton of news to share. The County has been pushing for a third County Court Judge to relieve some of the load now on the courts. The two judges we have now are doing what they can to keep up, but the population has grown and there are many more cases both criminal and family and a backlog has developed. We asked the state to approve a third judge for Tompkins and the Senate approved of giving us one thanks to the efforts of Senators Helming, Seward, and O’Mara. The Senators were also able to get passed in the Senate an expansion of our healthcare consortium. This is one of the best things the County has done in the past decade. The Town is a member and this bill allows Non Governmental Organizations to join as well. I first approached Joe Mareana, the Chamber of Commerce President Jen Tevares and the Consortium’s Don Barber about a way of letting small businesses join the Consortium. When I brought that up to Senator Seward and the Consortium, the NGO path was an easier lift and was something we could get done as a first step more quickly. I’ve talked about it with Senator Seward every time I’ve seen him and Martha Robertson picked up the idea, ran with it getting a resolution put together that I was happy to sponsor and introduce. It was a good show of bipartisanship. We’re now waiting, at least as of this writing, for the Assembly to vote on and hopefully pass these two bills. Then, on to the Governor! Last night: We approved adoption of the Tompkins Cortland Community College operating budget for the coming academic year. Once again this year, the nearly $40.8 million budget contains no increase in sponsor support. The budget contains total sponsor support of $4,650,364, split between the two Counties based on proportional student enrollment—64% ($2,976,233) from Tompkins County and 36% ($1,674,131) from Cortland County. The Legislature also authorized County Administrator Jason Molino to execute a new Memorandum of Understanding with Tompkins County Area Development (TCAD) for economic June 20, 2018 13 development services, for the years 2019-2023, succeeding the current agreement which expires at the end of this year. After considerable thoughtful discussion, the measure was approved by a 12-1 vote, with Legislator Leslyn McBean-Clairborne voting no. The new MOU extends the County’s intent to provide support equivalent to one-third of TCAD’s annual budget, based on the agency’s annual work plan—an amount not to exceed $250,410 in 2019 and rising by approximately two percent each year to a level not to exceed $271,052 in 2023. The agreement continues past practice of funding a portion of the County’s contribution through County room occupancy tax revenue. In a change that had been recommended by the Legislature’s Planning, Development and Environmental Quality Committee, and was ultimately approved by the Legislature, the agreement sets the proportion of room tax funding at a maximum of 75% for 2019 then decreases it over time—to 50% in 2020 and 2021, and 25% in 2022 and 2023. The bottom line is, TCAD will still receive the same support from the County, but more of that funding will come from the property tax in future years than the current allotment from the room tax. And earlier this month the County accepted the $14.2 million Upstate Airport Development Grant recently awarded by New York State and committed to assuming full responsibility for all additional project costs. The project will expand the terminal by approximately one-third, update terminal systems, and enhance security, as well as construct a federal customs inspection facility. The solar-powered airport will employ a new geothermal heat pump system, with solar covered parking constructed as part of the project. There’s some risk for the County here. If funding doesn’t come through for about 8 million that the State is not funding, the County will be on the hook for that although it will be paid for by the airport through fees and fund balance. It will not come out of property tax. Childcare is enormously expensive and is hitting our local families hard. The Legislature, by unanimous vote, appropriated $25,000 in Contingent funding to provide start-up funding for a part-time Child Care Planner/Developer position at the Child Development Council. The position will coordinate a Group Family Child Care Network, which will provide administrative supports to help keep existing day care programs open and to help new sites and providers to become established. The Legislature, without dissent, urged passage of proposed State home rule legislation, introduced by Senator Tom O’Mara, to amend the section of New York State County Law to permit Tompkins County to use local funds and contract with other entities to develop, maintain and manage affordable housing. This would allow the County to fund initiatives that would produce more affordable housing. Chair Martha Robertson, as recommended by the County’s Workforce Diversity and Inclusion Committee, proclaimed June 2018 Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, Asexual+ (LGBTQIA+) Pride Month in Tompkins County, calling upon all members of the community to join in celebrating the contributions of our LGBTQIA+ residents, and renewing the commitment and actions to eliminate prejudice everywhere it exists. Thank you for having me and again, thank you to Marcia Lynch, our public information officer. I draw from her reports extremely liberally. PARKS AND RECREATION REPORT – STEVE COLT The following report was available as a handout. Parks & Recreation Department 6/20/18 Town Board Meeting RECREATION  Our LBP and LSP programs concluded on Super Saturday June 9th. It was a great day to get our final games completed and a very good season.  Portable pitching mounds (2) have been purchased and donated to our program. One was the product of some fundraising directed by Ryan June 20, 2018 14 Mayo. The other mound was a memorial donation in the name of Kyle Arrison by his family. We will stencil Kyle’s name on his mound.  The equipment - Our coaches did a great job coaching our teams and an excellent job collecting and returning equipment. Our storage area is now FULL again. All of this has been checked over, organized and put away. Time to get Soccer and Football ready! It can be a challenge with the room we have.  Summer Travel season has started and we have teams competing at several levels. Softball has a 12U and a 14U team. Baseball has 2 teams of 10U and 2 teams of 12U. We also have 14U and 16U baseball teams that play at the school’s Varsity field. We have around 80 players combined to play on these teams.  Summer Booklet forms continue to come in at a very steady pace. Several of our programs have sold out. The Myers Park Day Camp starts on Monday. Our actual Health Department site inspection took place this morning and we are good to go. This should be a very busy summer with programs.  Benji Parkes and Eric Stickel are finalizing the plans for this year’s Soccer Camp. It starts on August 6th and I’m sure we will be over 200 participants for the week of camp.  Late summer and fall program forms have gone into the schools. We are getting registrations from these offerings already. A big change this fall is the move with our Youth Soccer Program up to an August 20 start date. This will compress the need to gather players and organize coaches and may be a challenge. The change does offer a longer program for our players. It will also save us some money in a functional way with regards to keeping our fields lined… PARKS  A new shade structure for the Myers playground is coming to fruition. Dr. Josie McAllister via the American Academy of Dermatology has made this possible and is a very sizeable donation. A sign will be placed there in acknowledgement.  The swim area ropes were installed on Monday. Our official beachfront inspection will take place on Thursday and we will be open for the season on Monday 6/25/18.  Pavilions and camping calls continue to come in every day. We would be wise to build another pavilion for sure!  FIREWORKS next Saturday followed by 4th of July events and opening concert July 5th. Busiest time of the year is upon us!

WHEREAS, in August, 2015 the Lansing Town Board issued a Final Approval of the Village Circle–Village Solars Planned Development Area (the “PDA” or, when more particularly so referenced, “VCVS”) affecting and rezoning lands were approved for subdivision to create commonly known Tax Parcels# 39.-1-35 (3.65 acres), 39.-1-38.1 (2.70 acres), 39.-1-38.3 (3.53 acres), 39.-1-38.5 (2.64 acres), and 39.-1-34 (approximately 0.28 acres) covering approximately 12.8± acres within the R2 zoning district, as updated in May, 2017 by Resolution 17-91 and the amendment and adoption of a revised PDA local law renamed and renumbered as updated as Local Law #6 of 2017, and such PDA was officially mapped and a local law adopted, and site and planning changes as various phases and buildings and improvements were undertaken resulted in the local law governing such PDA being amended, with the most recent such controlling local law being said Local Law #6 of 2017; and WHEREAS, among the reasons for needed changes in the PDA and its governing local law were things like the need for utility substations and adjusting internal lot lines for the purposes of construction, financing, and property management purposes, which such changes did not and here again do not affect the PDA, its public purposes, or the development plan or statement of intent as outlined in prior approvals and such local law, and said amendment (being Local Law #6 of 2017) was undertaken and approved by both the Planning Board and the Town Board pursuant to the Land Use Ordinance, and it was then necessary to amend lot lines due to initial project financing, and future lot line changes were known and foreseeable such that the local law provided blanket authorization for subdivision changes within the PDA to be undertaken, reviewed, and approved by the Planning Board, so long as it was determined that no subdivision extended beyond the approved boundaries of the PDA and no changes were made to the purposes or proposed material requirements of the PDA, including the build-out phase and timing of the community center and related public amenities, and among the changes and rules in said Local Law #6 of 2017 were requirements for site planning for new buildings over a certain size (see §1610(4)), certain lists of allowed uses and site planning requirements for the community center (§ 1610(2)(b)(7)), flexibility as to the future location of required parking (§1610(6)(e)(4)), and provisions allowing the Developer to subdivide, rejoin, consolidated the PDA into separate or differing tax parcels to assist in the delineation of project phasing, tax management issues, and financing for project development (§ 1610(22)); and WHEREAS, the clear legislative intent and directive so encompassed allows for minor changes in the PDA, as well as lot line changes and subdivisions to occur, without Town June 20, 2018 19 Board approvals or any Pyrrhic need for an amended local law for this PDA, particularly when the underlying boundaries, purposes, and requirements of the PDA itself are not changing; however, as changing lot lines may create a need for easements and stormwater management reviews to ensure an integrated project whole, the Planning Board will none- the-less issue any final subdivision approval and require a Town Board approval of the subdivision plat conditions as a condition to sealing the plat to accommodate any such concerns and continue the general requirements in the Land Use Ordinance for two levels of reviews for planned development areas, as referenced in the Town’s zoning and §1610(22) of such PDA local law; and WHEREAS, the Town of Lansing Planning Board has examined and reviewed the May 21, 2018 application for a Subdivision to convert the prior 4-lot PDA management and finance system into a 9-lot system, in part as additional buildings have been completed and new project lenders have different project financing requirements and want each income- producing building and construction project on its own tax parcel (and the PDA local law specifically envisioned such needs in §1610(22) thereof), and the Planning Board classified the action as a major subdivision, and the question of easements and stormwater requirements were duly referred to the Town Engineer and Town Attorney for review and comment, and no changes in stormwater planning were recommended to account for the change in the lot lines or number of lots, and no need for amended stormwater easements was noted as the easements for the same are in the local law and were granted upon a whole-PDA basis; and WHEREAS, this lot line change/subdivision was delivered to County Planning for § 239 review and the County replied upon June 5, 2018 indicating that “the modifications have no negative inter-community, or county-wide impacts,” and the matter was further discussed and considered at a public meeting of the Planning Board upon June 11, 2018, and the residents of the Town of Lansing were given a full opportunity to be heard respecting the subdivision amendment of the approved Village Circle Apartments-Village Solars PDA Final Development Plan and this subdivision proposal; and WHEREAS, on June 11, 2018, pursuant to Local Law Number 3 of 2016 (Subdivision Rules and Regulations of the Town of Lansing), the Planning Board held a Public Hearing on this proposed Major Subdivision and all comments thereat received and all documents and evidence delivered were duly considered, and thereat it was determined that as this proposal affects only internal lot lines, does not change the development plan, timing, construction sequencing, the size of the PDA, the number of units or buildings, and as re- subdividing internal lot lines was specifically envisioned and reviewed in the Type I SEQRA review for the local law and in prior approvals of this PDA, and as 6 NYCRR 617.5(c)(2), (15), and (26) suggest that this action could be classified as a Type II Action, the Planning Board none-the-less considered the matter as a Type I Action and has undertaken a review of the prior SEQRA review and negative declaration, its findings and project conditions mitigating any moderate or other potential or actual adverse environmental impacts, and has found that nothing in the current application triggers a need to conduct any supplemental review of the existing negative declaration, which declaration be and hereby is continued, and the Town Board has instructed that a similar review be undertaken and has reached the same conclusion; and WHEREAS, the Lansing Planning Board has final approval authority over subdivisions in the Town of Lansing pursuant to law and the Town’s Subdivision local law, and the Planning Board duly approved such subdivision by Resolution dated June 11, 2018, with conditions, and did duly refer the matter to the Town Board for review, consent and approval, and accordingly, and based upon due consideration and deliberation thereupon, now therefore be it RESOLVED AND DETERMINED as follows: 1. The major subdivision plat and application as submitted to and approved by the Planning Board be and hereby is approved, subject to the conditions set forth in item #3, below. 2. The conditions of approval set forth in the Planning Board approval each be and are hereby approved and affirmed. June 20, 2018 20 3. All previous conditions of PDA approvals, stormwater requirements, and construction phasing will remain in effect for the overall PDA. In addition, and within 30 days of this Resolution, the Developer shall: a. Provide an update on any plans for a bus stop along Warren Road or within the PDA; b. Provide an updated location map and proposed build-out date for the project’s perimeter trail, dog park or area, and basketball court If any such proposed build-out date is not scheduled prior to December 31, 2020 (the substantial completion date for the Community Center building), the Developer shall submit a written explanation substantiating such timeline or delay, and if the Town Board is satisfied the timelines may be approved by the Town Supervisor by written letter submitted to the Planning Board, Code Officer, and Developer. In such event that letter and approval, together with the locational maps and timelines, shall be deemed a part of, and a requirement of, the PDA and this consent resolution, and the Town Board may require that the statement of intent to comply be updated. Should the Town Board be dissatisfied with the explanation or delay, and in all cases, the Town Board reserves the right to amend Local Law #6 of 2017 to update the conditions to both compel the completion (and any needed dedication) of items a. and b., above, including by withholding the same building permits or certificates of occupancy tied to timely completion of the said Community Center.
