TOWN OF LANSING PLANNING BOARD RESOLUTION OF STATE
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY REVIEW (SEQR) NEGATIVE DECLARATION
FOR THE PROPOSED TWO -LOT MINOR SUBDIVISION -
PERUVILLE ROAD, LANSING, NEW YORK
WHEREAS, an Application was made by Andrew J. Sciarabba on behalf of Lansing Associates
for Minor Subdivision approval, thus creating two new undeveloped commercial building lots,
at Peruville Road, Lansing, New York, and otherwise known as Tax Parcel #30.4-16.22, consisting
of a total of 3.42± acres, in the B2 (General Commercial) Zoning District; and
WHEREAS, the Applicant proposes to subdivide the existing 3.42-acre property into two parcels:
Parcel 1, measuring 1.179 acres with existing Raised Bed Septic Area, approved by Site Plan by
the Planning Board of the Town of Lansing by Resolution 09-87 on August 10, 2009, and Parcel 2,
measuring 2.237 acres and vacant; and
WHEREAS, this proposed action is an Unlisted Action for which the Town of Lansing Planning
Board is an involved agency for the purposes of environmental review, and a Public Hearing was
duly noticed and held upon September 9, 2019 to consider such Minor Subdivision and the
potential environmental impacts thereof, and the public was free to provide opinions and
evidence in respect of such matters and such matters were duly considered; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Lansing Planning Board, in performing its independent and
uncoordinated environmental review in accordance with Article 8 of the New York State
Environmental Conservation Law - the State Environmental Quality Review Act (" SEQRA" ), (i)
pursued its thorough review of the applicant's completed Environmental Assessment Form Part
1, and any and all other documents prepared and submitted with respect to this proposed action
and its environmental review, and (ii) thoroughly analyzed the potential relevant areas of
environmental concern of the project to determine if the proposed action may have a significant
adverse impact on the environment, including the criteria identified in 6 NYCRR Section 617.7(c),
and (iii) reviewed and completed the EAF, Part II on the record; and
WHEREAS, each of the identified impacts were analyzed and duly considered by the Planning
Board, as Lead Agency, in relation to the question of whether such impacts were so probable of
occurring or so significant as to require a positive declaration of environmental impacts, and after
weighing the potential impacts arising from or in connection with this site plan approval, and
after also considering: (i) the probability of each potential impact occurring, including weighing
the highly speculative nature of some potential future contingencies and the potential non -highly
speculative nature of others; (ii) the duration of each potential impact; (iii) the irreversibility of
each potential impact, including a consideration of permanently lost resources of value; (iv)
whether each potential impact can or will be controlled or mitigated by permitting, reviews, or
other regulatory processes; (v) the regional consequence of the potential impacts; (vi) the potential
for each impact to be or become inconsistent with the Towns Master Plan or Comprehensive Plan
and local needs and goals; and (vii) whether any known objections to the Project relate to any of
the identified potential impacts; the Planning Board found that these factors did not cause any
potential negative environmental or related social or resource impact to be or be likely to become

a moderate or significant negative impact; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS:
RESOLVED, that the Planning Board of the Town of Lansing be and hereby is again declared as
Lead Agency for an uncoordinated SEQRA review; and it is

submitted with respect to this proposed action and its environmental review, (ii) its thorough
review of the potential relevant areas of environmental concern of the proposed project to
determine if the proposed action may have a significant adverse impact on the environment,
including the criteria identified in 6 NYCRR Section 617.7(c), and (iii) its completion of the EAF,
Part 2 and its determination at Part 3, including any findings noted therein (which findings are
incorporated herein as if set forth at length), hereby makes a negative determination of
environmental significance ("NEGATIVE DECLARATION") in accordance with SEQRA for the
above referenced proposed action, and determines that an Environmental Impact Statement will
