Randall, Director of Planning 1 PLANNING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Planning Board Members FROM: Christine Balestra, Senior Planner DATE: July 30, 2024 RE: WBVR Radio Tower Access Drive Improvement Project – Special Permit Enclosed please find materials related to the proposed access drive improvements to the WVBR Radio Tower, located on Pidgeon Place, off Hungerford Hill Road. The project involves improving an existing 720-foot long farm path by installing a 12-foot wide, 12-inch deep, gravel access drive with turnaround. The project requires Planning Board special permit approval because it involves the deposit or removal of more than 250 cubic yards of material on any parcel in any one year (Town Code §270-217). The proposed access drive improvements involve excavating and removing approximately 320 cubic yards of topsoil. The WBVR radio tower is located on a 96+/- acre parcel owned by Cornell-University. The closest building is a Cornell Veterinary College small animal facility located approximately 500-feet west, on Hungerford Hill Road. Ellis Hollow Road is approximately 1,200 feet north of the project. Aside from the tower, the property contains research facilities associated with the Cornell College of Veterinary and Laboratory Animal Services. As such, there are no trails or public roads on or near the property, and there is restricted public access to the site and to the buildings on the property (Hungerford Hill Road is a private, Cornell-owned road). The project involves installing temporary stormwater management facilities during construction. The Town of Ithaca Public Works and Engineering Departments have reviewed a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for the project and provided the attached memo. Pursuant to the Town Code requirements in §270-217, the Director of Public Works (Joe Slater) and the Director of Engineering (Justin McNeal, on behalf of the Director of Engineering) have confirmed in their memo under “General Comments” that the project “adequately protects the property and surrounding properties from significant adverse consequences of such deposit or removal, including, when completed, adverse drainage, erosion, visual or other adverse impacts.” The attached draft resolution contains a condition of approval that references the other items listed in the Public Works/Engineering memo. The attachments also include a completed draft Short EAF and draft SEQR resolution for the project for the Planning Board to consider. Please feel free to call me at 273-1721, extension 121, or email me at cbalestra@townithacany.gov if you have any questions prior to the meeting.

Miller, P.C.1. April 19, 2024 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Cornell University Real Estate proposes to install a gravel access drive from the parking area for 212 Hungerford Hill Road (Tax Parcel 61.-1-7.1) to the WVBR radio tower (Tax Parcel 61.-1-7.2). The WVBR Radio Tower Access Drive Improvements, to be referenced as ‘the project,’ will improve accessibility to the WVBR radio tower. The project will improve the existing 720 feet long farm path, by installing a 12-foot-wide, 12-inch-deep, gravel access drive with a turnaround. The project will disturb a total of approximately 0.3 acres of land. The amount of earthwork required to complete the improvements is estimated to total approximately 320 c.y. thus requiring a Basic Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (Basic SWPPP) in compliance with Town of Ithaca law. The project will consist of excavating, and removing, a 12” depth of existing topsoil from the site. Driveway fabric is to be installed over the entire subgrade area, prior to installing subbase and surface gravel totaling at least 12”. The newly installed road will be graded and compacted using various heavy equipment. STORMWATER DRAINAGE Existing and Proposed Site Conditions The existing area of the project can be described best as a farm path in a meadow. The on-site soils are best described as Lordstown channery silt loam, as shown on the attached report generated from the NRCS web site. There is no evidence of any wetlands located on or adjacent to the site. The site is located on a floodplain described as Zone C, an area of minimal flood hazard, as shown on the FEMA FIRM panel attached to this report. Stormwater runoff from the site drains from the East to the West, to an existing storm sewer system, as well as road side swales east of the existing parking area. The project will increase the amount of impervious gravel by approximately 0.2 acres. There will not be a significant change to drainage patterns as a result of this project. CONTROLS Erosion and Sediment Controls The proposed erosion and sediment control practices are as indicated on the attached design drawings and primarily include silt fence, silt log, and a stabilized entrance. The plan is in compliance with the November 2016 New York State Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control (aka Blue Book). Implementation of the plan, and the installation and maintenance of all practices, shall be in accordance with the NYSDEC standards. Other Controls Disposal of Soils The existing soils on the site will be ‘boxed out’, removed from the site and disposed of offsite at a permitted location. Should the disposal site not be permitted, the site shall be considered a part of the ‘site’ covered under this permit, and shall comply with all requirements of the SWPPP. Waste Disposal All waste materials will be collected and stored in securely lidded metal dumpsters rented from a local waste management company which must be a solid waste management company licensed to do business in WVBR Radio Tower Access Drive Improvements Basic Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan T.G. Miller, P.C.2. April 19, 2024 Tompkins County. The dumpsters will comply with all local and state solid waste management regulations. All trash and construction debris from the site will be deposited in the dumpsters. The dumpsters will be emptied a minimum of twice per week or more often if necessary, and the trash will be hauled to a landfill approved by New York State. No construction waste materials will be buried on site. All personnel will be instructed regarding the correct procedures for waste disposal. Notices stating these practices will be posted in the job site construction office trailer, and the job site superintendent will be responsible for seeing that these procedures are followed. Sanitary Waste All sanitary waste will be collected from portable units by a licensed portable facility provider in compliance with local and state regulation. Off-Site Vehicle Tracking Stabilized construction exits (Tracking Pads) will be provided if necessary to help reduce vehicle tracking of soils from disturbed areas of the site. Streets adjacent to the site entrances will be inspected daily and cleaned with vacuum equipment if necessary to remove any excess mud, dirt, or rock tracked from the site. Dump trucks hauling material from the construction site will be covered with a tarpaulin. The job site superintendent will be responsible for seeing that these procedures are followed. Hazardous Substances and Hazardous Waste All hazardous waste materials will be disposed of by the Contractor in the manner specified by local, state, and/or federal regulations and by the manufacturer of such products. Site personnel will be instructed in these practices by the job site superintendent, who will also be responsible for seeing that these practices are followed. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS's) for each substance with hazardous properties that is used on the job site will be obtained and used for the proper management of potential wastes that may result from these products. An MSDS will be posted in the immediate area where such product is stored and/or used and another copy of each MSDS will be maintained in the SWPPP file at the job site construction trailer office. Each employee who must handle a substance with hazardous properties will be instructed on the use of MSDS sheets and the specific information in the applicable MSDS for the product he/she is using, particularly regarding spill control techniques. Any spills of hazardous materials which are in quantities in excess of Reportable Quantities as defined by EPA regulations shall be immediately reported to the EPA National Response Center 1-800-424-8802. In order to minimize the potential for a spill of hazardous materials to come into contact with stormwater, the following steps will be implemented: •All materials with hazardous properties (such as pesticides, petroleum products, fertilizers, detergents, construction chemicals, acids, paints, paint solvents, cleaning solvents, additives for soil stabilization, concrete curing compounds and additives, etc.) will be stored in a secure location, under cover, when not in use. •The minimum practical quantity of all such materials will be kept on the job site. •A spill control and containment kit (containing, for example, absorbent such as kitty litter or sawdust, acid neutralizing powder, brooms, dust pans, mops, rags, gloves, goggles, plastic and metal trash containers, etc.) will be provided at the storage site. •All of the products in a container will be used before the container is disposed of. All such containers will be triple-rinsed with water prior to disposal. The rinse water used in these containers will be disposed of in a manner in compliance with state and federal regulations and will not be allowed to mix with stormwater discharges. •All products will be stored in and used from the original container with the original product label. •All products will be used in strict compliance with instructions on the product label. •The disposal of excess or used products will be in strict compliance with instructions on the product label.

One other point regarding a trail to the playing fields: If you want to get those fields from Maplewood, you have to walk up Mitchell to Pine Tree, then down Pine Tree to Reis Tennis center, then cross Pine Tree (where there is no pedestrian crossing), and go around Reis. A long and dangerous route. You can also go southeast on the East Ithaca Rec trail, and then take an overgrown, muddy deer path through dense brush, but that's not viable as a real route. There really should be a pedestrian-only way to walk from Mitchell/Maplewood to all the Cornell facilities on Pine tree.

The Belle Sherman/Bryant Park neighborhood should not have to bear the weight of providing recreational facilities for what are essentially Cornell dormitories (even if they are taxed). Although Cornell students can’t be barred from using recreational facilities at Belle Sherman school or from using our “pocket parks”, ample recent experience has shown that there is no way that Cornell students can be allowed to co-mingle with our neighborhood children in those spaces in the after-school evenings, on weekends, or in the summer. The only way to keep that co-mingling to a minimum is to ensure that Cornell students living in the Maplewood complexes have nearby access to all the recreational facilities that they demand – either within their housing complexes or on nearby Cornell land. Basketball and soccer are the most popular outdoor sports for the largely international students that live in the Maplewood complex. The nearest outdoor Cornell courts are 1.4 miles away on West Campus (a single court at the Campus Rd.-Stewart Ave intersection) and 1.9 miles away on North Campus (8 courts on Jessup Rd across from RPU). Cornell has very few general use outdoor playing fields near central campus and very few indoor courts for a university its size, and they are largely booked by undergraduates for intramural sports. Cornell’s new field house addresses the needs of the varsity teams and will have no general use facilities. Note also that most of those living in Maplewood are graduate students and many/most remain in Ithaca during the summer, so the usual argument about outdoor facilities not being so useful during the academic year does not apply. Beginning in 2019, peaking in 2020 and 2021, and continuing until 2023, there was extensive use of the playground facilities at Belle Sherman by Cornell students, the majority from Maplewood. They would show up in groups of up to 15, and sometimes completely take over the playground. They often showed no 3 consideration for children or their parents who showed up to play, requiring them to wait until the students were done playing. Sometimes they showed up with portable speakers blaring expletive laced hip hop music, and refused to turn the music down. They damaged one of the hoops by hanging on the rim and net. And during senior week in 2022 someone – most likely Cornell seniors who had made heavy use of the courts – tried to steal one of the backboards; fortunately the screws were very long and had friction nuts. Cornell student use has been manageable for the last year, but that is not likely to continue if 800 more beds and no appropriate rec facilities are added in Maplewood II. Cornell students in Maplewood I and II will outnumber the number of children in our neighborhood by a factor of 4 or more. I repeat: there is simply no way that college students can or should play side by side with elementary and middle school students on our school playgrounds, regardless of what the law says. No parent wants to let their 10 year old daughter play next to a dozen male Cornell students. The best way to prevent that is to provide the recreational facilities that the Cornell students want close to where they live, on Cornell-owned property. Cornell owns lots of land east and south of the proposed development that could be used for construction of courts. They already have large playing fields behind Reis Tennis Center that are rarely used. However, there are (as far as I’ve been able to find) no walkways or paths that connect those playing fields to Maplewood I (or II). Adding courts and a connecting trail should be a priority as part of the development project. I’ve sketched possibilities below. Thank you for your time and consideration.

We introduced the project to the Planning Board at the July 2nd meeting. With this submission we request that the Town and SEQR review process begin with the Town’s Declaration of Intent to Assume Lead Agency at one of the two Planning Board meetings in August. The project proposes a redevelopment of the former East Hill Apartments with new construction of apartment units for graduate and professional students at Cornell. This development will be an extension of the existing Maplewood Phase I site, and it is proposed that a new PDZ be created for Phase II to include the project area. Residents will share amenities and open spaces with the existing Maplewood project. Maplewood Phase II proposes approximately 800 new beds, spread among approximately 650 new units between six new residential buildings and a community center. The project is accessible from Maple Avenue and via a new street connection from the existing Maplewood Phase I project.

The project comprises four Cornell-owned parcels that will be consolidated into a single approximately nine-acre parcel. Immediately adjacent parcels include Cornell-owned properties used for agricultural research across Maple Avenue to the north, Maplewood Phase I graduate student housing to the west and south, and the East Lawn Cemetery to the east. The project also wraps around a City of Ithaca water tank located on Maple Avenue. Approach The project is a second phase of the existing Maplewood student housing community and is oriented toward Cornell graduate students, similar to the residents of the current community. Six five-story buildings are pro- posed that will house approximately 615 units with 800 beds, primarily studios and one-bedroom apartments with a small percentage of two-bedroom. Approximately 150 parking spaces are proposed. Greystar, the operator of Maplewood Phase I, is uniquely positioned to blend Maplewood Phase I and Maplewood Phase II to create a larger Maplewood neighborhood, a vibrant community of approximately 1,672+ primarily graduate students. Using feedback from the current residents, Greystar proposes to optimize the connections between the two Phases, aiming to provide students with high-quality off-campus housing. The project redevelops a vacant site, within an existing neighborhood with high connectivity that includes bike paths, accommodations for personal and Bikeshare bikes, sidewalks, easy connections to TCAT bus routes, and Ithaca CarShare vehicles. With a lower parking ratio for personal vehicles per unit, constructing housing in this location, within proximity to campus, aids in reducing the number of personal vehicle trips for commuting to campus for graduate and professional students. Affordability, Density, and Sustainability Affordability, Density, and Sustainability are all interconnected in the Maplewood II project. As an overarching goal, Greystar and Cornell are striving to create a more affordable option for graduate students. Many graduate students attending the Cornell University Graduate School are on fixed stipends that must cover their living expenses while completing their degrees. With the project as proposed, the rent per bedroom to students is contractually obligated to be materially below market rate. The efficient design of five-story buildings allows for compact and economical construction. This configuration is more sustainable in terms of construction materials required and future energy consumption. Additionally, fewer buildings leave more of the site as open space, facilitating the preservation of existing vegetation, and less impact on site permeability. The unit mix has been carefully tailored as a response to a lack of supply for these units at Maplewood I, further serving as a relief valve for the local market to increase affordability for the households where it will have the highest impact. The capital being utilized to fund the development costs is currently identified within an Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) fund, which analyzes investments through a lens of both traditional finance and social benefits such as increased housing affordability, reduced carbon emissions, and the promotion of sustainable development trends such as walkability. This unique capital source will serve to ensure that the Project is held to a higher standard for ESG objectives than the minimum as set forth by government. Additionally, given the scale at which this capital source operates nationally, the Maplewood II project will benefit from reduced costs to further ESG objectives than would otherwise be available to traditionally capitalized development projects. Sustainable elements the project will incorporate: • Walkability / Transit - the site will connect to multi-modal transit networks (walking paths, biking paths, bus transit). This project will seamlessly integrate into existing sidewalk networks and connect existing multi-use trail networks, as further described in ‘Site Design’ below. • Redevelopment – as a redevelopment site, the project avoids greenfield development conserving farm- land, floodplains, and natural habitats. • Materials Selection & Embodied Carbon - source sustainable materials locally, reclaimed or recycled PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II content and/or easily recyclable materials, third-party certified wood when possible. • Health – the project will use low volatile organic compound (VOC) materials where possible. • Embodied Carbon - for the largest material purchases, the design team will consider materials with a low carbon footprint from the extraction, manufacturing, and transport of the material to the site. • Energy o The project is 100% electric with no fossil fuel for operational needs for heating and cooling, which will be accomplished with air source heat pump systems. Domestic hot water will also be supplied through individual electric hybrid heat pump technology. o Interior Lighting - high-efficiency, LED lighting in tenant, common, and exterior areas and addi- tional lighting efficiency strategies will be implemented. o Daylighting – to promote occupant health and building efficiency the design will include thought- ful daylight design o HVAC - all air handling units equipped with economizers where available. Fresh air requirement is supplied locally into each tenant HVAC unit instead of through the common/corridor HVAC system. o Residential cooking electrification – all electric Energystar rated stoves will be utilized. o Residential clothing electrification - all electric Energystar rated ventless dryers will be utilized. o Electric Vehicle Charging – EV charging stations will be evenly distributed across the proposed parking areas. 5% of all the total spaces (3 spaces min.) will be provided on day one. Electrical infrastructure (equipment and conduits) will be provided for an additional 20% of all total spac- es (30 spaces total) to be installed as demand requires. Residents will also have the ability to charge e-bikes and e-scooters in a centralized bike storage facility. o Renewable Energy - On-Site Solar - the project will include designated roof areas for future solar panels. Conduits to the main electrical rooms will be provided on day one. • Water Conservation - plumbing fixtures that meet or exceed EPA WaterSense specifications. • Landscape Design & Biodiversity o Native and Drought Tolerant - landscaping will consist of primarily native plantings adapted to local conditions that do not require irrigation. o Biodiversity- the site design preserves native vegetation where possible and will improve the original biodiversity of the site. o Selections for plantings will use locally appropriate varieties to provide pollinator habitat and draw upon known tree species growing in this area, including the Recommended Urban Street Tree resources for areas where trees are proposed adjacent to streets. Tree plantings will help reduce the effects of the urban heat island by locating shade trees over paved parking areas. o Meadow plant communities will be selected that grow in our community as informed by the Guide to the Plant Communities of the Finger Lakes and many other Cornell resources. The meadows proposed will be infrequently mown requiring significantly less mowing and mainte- nance than lawns. Meadow also provides habitat for insects, ground-nesting birds and reptiles, and small mammals. o Where possible, on-site soil will be stockpiled and re-used with amendments for plant health. o Site Design will provide outdoor amenities such as seating, plantings, walking paths, and com- munal greenspace to improve resident wellbeing. o Exterior lighting – will consist of energy-efficient, dark sky-compliant LED fixtures, the same or similar ones used in Maplewood I with advancements made in efficiency that have been imple- mented since its construction. • Stormwater – the project will incorporate permanent storm water management practices to attenuate changes in peak flows and provide treatment of runoff from impervious surfaces. • Waste Management o Waste Diversion - Construction waste diversion measures will be in place. o Site Recycling - easy-to-access recycling stations will be included. Zoning Planned Development Zone Greystar, in collaboration with Cornell, is requesting to rezone the site as a Planned Development Zone (PDZ) that will function as a higher-density neighborhood, building on the first phase of the Maplewood graduate PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II student housing community. While distinct from the adjacent Maplewood Phase I PDZ (PDZ No. 15), this new PDZ will address the unique constraints/opportunities of the site while embracing the compact, walkable com- munity character embodied in PDZ No. 15. Conformance with Town of Ithaca Planning Initiatives Maplewood Phase II is located at the site of the former Maple Hill apartment complex and is ideally situated for redevelopment as a dense residential student housing neighborhood. The 2014 Comprehensive Plan outlines a series of critiques of the then current development patterns in the Town and actions that might be taken for improvement, among them mixed-use neighborhoods. Mixed-use is a laudable goal but with current trends away from brick-and-mortar retail services and restaurants in Collegetown struggling, the more immediate need is for housing and with it a population that can support existing businesses. The Town of Ithaca Comprehensive Plan (2014) proposes this site as a development node, and the Future Land Use Plan (2014) identifies it as a TND High-Density area. While not a TND mixed-use neighborhood, the development of this site at the proposed density aligns with the Town’s Comprehensive Plan, in which surveys and comments revealed support for denser development overall. The Plan’s goal of establishing ‘more inten- sively developed mixed-use neighborhood centers near large employers on East Hill’ aligns directly with the aims of this project, which seeks to increase student housing density on East Hill, close to Cornell with easy access to mixed-use areas in Collegetown and East Hill Plaza. Furthermore, the development proposed by this project would be ‘compatible with the established character and scale of development,’ as stipulated by the Comprehensive Plan. The first phase of the Maplewood project, adjacent to this site, laid the groundwork for the scale and density of student housing here, which this second phase would supplement. The existence of infrastructure and services on this site further recommend it for increased density following the guidelines of the Comprehensive Plan, and its proximity to Cornell makes it eminently attractive to the prospective student population. The Tompkins County Housing Strategy report (2017) called for purpose-built student housing such as that proposed for this project. The Housing Strategy report recommended the construction of beds for 25% of the total student population of the County, of which the current housing stock can accommodate less than 10%. The Tompkins County Housing Targets for 2016-2025 include the goal of meeting the existing deficit of pur- pose-built student beds, further stating that student housing is expected to require more beds than non-stu- dents in Tompkins County in the coming years when accounting for the growth of Cornell and Ithaca College. The Housing Strategy further recommends locating student housing within urban centers where students do not require personal vehicles to access their campuses. This site is ideally situated for use as student housing, as it lies on an existing public transit route and is a short walk from the Cornell campus. Outreach The project team has begun outreach with various project stakeholders and interest groups, including neigh- borhood associations (including the Belle Sherman neighborhood), the Belle Sherman School, elected officials, and construction trades groups. A public informational meeting will be held in the coming months. In the fall when students return, outreach will include current Cornell graduate and professional students and residents of Maplewood Phase I. Schedule The project team has coordinated with the Town of Ithaca Planning Dept. to prepare a municipal approvals schedule to accommodate the necessary Site Plan Review, SEQR, and Re-Zoning processes. A detailed proj- ect schedule chart is attached for reference. The following scheduled summary is anticipated: • 10 months to complete Site Plan Review and SEQR • 20 months construction period • Move in August 2027 As with any project of this size, the times, dates, and durations shown here should be considered approximate, and subject to the review process. PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II Site Plan and Environmental Review The following outlines some of the areas that are subject to environmental review: • Traffic Analysis and Traffic Demand Management – The project location is appealing to students who do not own cars. Many, especially international students, rely on alternative modes of transportation including public transit, biking, and walking. One of TCAT most popular bus routes is located on Maple Avenue. A low parking ratio is proposed due to the walkable nature of the site and the public transporta- tion available. Parking ratios o Phase 2 only = 615 units with approximately 150 spaces = ~.24 ratio o Phase 1+Phase 2 combined = 1059 units with approximately 494 spaces = ~.47 ratio Many students who do own cars don’t use them daily; therefore, off-site storage parking is being con- sidered. A traffic study to consider the impacts of the project on nearby intersections and streets has been undertaken by GTS Consulting. Traffic counts conducted in April of 2024 show that traffic generat- ed by the first phase of Maplewood is significantly lower than anticipated. In collaboration with Whitham Planning & Design, a TDM has been developed. TCAT, Ithaca Carshare, and Ithaca Bikeshare have been consulted regarding their participation in an on-site presence. The conversations have been posi- tive. The study concludes that the additional traffic generated by the proposed Maplewood II will have no significant impact on traffic operations in the area. It is anticipated to be a minor traffic generator, con- sistent with the existing Maplewood development. There are sufficient gaps in traffic to accommodate the additional traffic turning into and out of the development, good sight lines, no significant accident history in proximity to the development, and no traffic capacity concerns. The study suggests that de- velopment should continue to implement TDM strategies consistent with the existing development and continue to look for additional opportunities to promote alternative modes of transportation. There are no mitigation measures recommended. • Visual Impact Assessment – The project team has met with Town staff to discuss selected locations for simulated views and areas of potential sensitivity including designated scenic vistas. The locations selected were deemed to have the greatest potential for visual impact. A study of the nearest identified scenic vista at Pine Tree Road and Snyder Hill Road concludes that the project will not be visible from this location. The greatest visual changes from public locations will occur on Maple Avenue. Views are provided looking towards the project from Maplewood I, looking west on Maple Avenue, looking south across Maple Avenue at the proposed crosswalk from the East Hill Recreation Way, from Maple Avenue towards the water tower, and towards the east on Maple Avenue. Interior views of Maplewood II are also provided. These views depict visual changes that are compatible with the existing residential and campus uses in the vicinity of the project. • Energy - The project will comply with the Ithaca Energy Code Supplement (IECS). IECS Compliance Summary – o The project will meet the requirements of the Ithaca Energy Code Supplement (IECS), 144-5, 2020 Mechanical Code of New York State, 2020 Energy Conservation Code of New York State, and NEEP. There are multiple pathways to comply with this code; it is anticipated that this proj- ect will meet the requirements of the Prescriptive Compliance Path. o Per IECS §R504.1, as of January 01, 2023, the prescriptive compliance pathway requires the achievement of a minimum of twelve (12) points as laid out in §R504.4. The proponent antici- pates meeting the requirements as follows: o EE1, Heat pumps for space heating: Six (6) points achieved via the use of cold-climate, air- source variable-refrigerant flow units. o EE2, Heat pumps for domestic water heating: Two (2) points achieved via individual heat pump PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II water heaters. o EE4, Residential cooking, and clothes drying electrification: Two (2) points achieved via the use of electric stoves and ventless dryers o AI1, Smaller building/room size: One (1) point achieved via standard rooms falling below the thresholds set by IECS. o OP1, Development density: One (1) point achieved via sufficient level of density (units/acre) within the development. o Additionally, the building will be held to the NY State Energy Conservation Code for all envelope assembly requirements under the Commercial Code Section. • Fire Department and Emergency Vehicle Access – An initial meeting was held with the Town Code Enforcement Officer to discuss issues of potential concern, and additional meetings to discuss the site plan-related access for firefighting will be needed. The project site is most readily accessible via the loop located along Maple Avenue with secondary access from Mitchell Street. The height of the build- ings and the construction type will require aerial apparatus access. A second meeting was held with IFD Chief Covert and Code Enforcement Director of Code Enforcement & Zoning Marty Moseley. Details of hose length and standpipes are under discussion. It is understood that approval of adequate access is required for the project. • Utility infrastructure – T.G. Miller is the lead engineer for the project and has been working with Town staff to develop utility plans for the project. Water for domestic and fire protection services will be connected to the Maplewood Phase I private system at two locations with mains extended within the project to create a distribution loop. This configuration will allow for the existing master meter and backflow preventer servicing Maplewood Phase I to also be used for Phase II. Greystar currently has an interest in Phase I and will develop an agreement to ensure this relationship survives in perpetuity. In-field fire hydrant flow testing of the Town’s Mitchell Street water main and the privately owned mains within Maplewood Phase I are being coordinated with the Town and Bolton Point. Results of this testing will be used to update the computer-aided hydraulic modeling will be performed to inform the need for any domestic or fire suppression booster pumps. No new connections to the Town’s water system are proposed. Sanitary sewer service will be connected along the western property boundary to the existing Town sewer main which extends through the Maplewood Phase I site from Mitchell Street. To make the connection, the final segment of Town main within Maplewood Phase 1 may be replaced in the same horizontal alignment but adjusted vertically to accommodate the pipe inverting depths needed for the proposed private sewer main extensions. At this time, it is anticipated that all new sewer mains con- structed within the project will remain private. Referencing the utility analysis performed for Maplewood Phase I, it is expected there is adequate treatment capacity in the Ithaca Area Waste Water Treatment Facility (IAWWTF) to serve the project. This will be confirmed with a ‘will serve’ request to be submitted to the IAWWTF. The previous Phase I analysis also established that there is sufficient capacity in the downstream jointly owned interceptor sewer system. Maple Hill Apartments was a Town Sewer custom- er, so an updated assessment of the capacity impacts will be based on the differential in pre-post bed counts. • Storm Water Management - Considerable hydrologic and hydraulic analysis of watersheds upstream of the Maplewood site, including the former Maple Hill Apartments parcel, was completed for the 2017 Ma- plewood Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP). In addition to fulfilling the traditional storm- water requirements of the Town and NYSDEC, the layout of new storm sewers and sizing of permanent water quality/quantity practices in this project will respect the capacities of the downstream facilities within Maplewood Phase I, which ultimately connect to the Town’s system on Mitchell Street. T.G. Miller will meet with the Town Engineer to revisit the facility designs for Maplewood Phase 1 and, prior to for- mal submission, review a draft SWPPP for conformance with confirm the Town’s and NYSDEC design requirements for this redevelopment project. • Cultural Resources – The State Historic Preservation Office was contacted regarding any concerns that might be present for archaeological and historical resources. They expressed no concerns with the Maplewood II site but suggested a protection plan for the Mitchell Family Cemetery, located on the Ma- PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II plewood I site, if construction activities will take place within 90’ of the cemetery. A temporary protection fence for the cemetery will be installed. Site Design Situated just south of Cornell’s campus, with groves of existing native vegetation on the site, the landscape at Maplewood Phase II is inspired by the rolling hills and character of the surrounding landscape. The buildings are organized around both the existing woodland and a generously scaled central landscape of rolling mead- ows and gathering lawns. With the major exterior spaces well-defined, the buildings strive to engage seamless- ly with the landscape. Six five-story buildings will be oriented to maximize distant views across the cemetery to the east, towards Cornell to the north, and hills south and west of the Site. Buildings will open outward towards Phase I and Maple Avenue. The landscape character of Maplewood Phase II will differ from Maplewood Phase I but will be just as robust. The design will be less gardenesque and more campus inspired. Where the plantings of Maplewood Phase I are sympathetic to an urban neighborhood character, Maplewood Phase II is proposed to be more open and expansive. The majority of the site (approximately 58%) will be devoted to landscape, paths, and outdoor recreation, with approximately 42% covered by building footprints and parking. The site design proposes large areas of meadow and native trees, with smaller areas of lawn to allow gathering and casual enjoyment of open spaces. The streetscape along Maple Avenue will be extended to the extent of the property and will include a sidewalk and street trees. Prioritizing the pedestrian experience is a core guiding principle for the project. Maplewood II establishes key pedestrian and bicycle connections not only within the confines of the site but to the greater trail networks beyond. Accessible where possible, barrier-free pathways throughout the site ensure that pedestrians of all mobility levels have equitable access to all areas of the community while vehicle parking is deemphasized and located along the less active edges of the property. The site plan maximizes the amount of green space by preserving existing trees and woodland areas, adding bio-diverse meadows, and locating open lawn areas for social interactions. The building positions reinforce the landscape approach by encouraging porosity between the two phases. The most active of these spaces will be the terrace adjacent to the new Community Center, which is intentionally located proximate to the existing Maplewood I Community Center. Combined, the two Community Centers will be the “social heart” of the Maplewood community. All parts of Maplewood are connected by a network of accessible paths where possible and a central acces- sible multi-use trail which the public will be invited to use, connecting to the wider network of hiking and biking trails in the area. Students will be able to relax, study, or gather in the open air close to each building, or walk to the Community Center, where a large outdoor terrace, movable furniture, and attractive lighting will ensure that there is always something going on throughout the day and the year. Stormwater wetlands integrated with the topography will further enhance the sustainability of the project and contribute an extra dimension to habitat diversity. The native plant communities of woodland and meadow will create an ecologically rich and low-main- tenance landscape that will attract wildlife and contribute to the environmental value of the project. Shared Open Space The existing Maplewood Phase I apartment complex is separated from the Maplewood Phase II site by a sloped area along its eastern edge that is currently heavily wooded and has minimal landscape improvement. The team identified this area as an opportunity to weave together the two sites and create a seamless neigh- borhood. Existing topography and mature trees will be preserved to the greatest extent possible while introduc- ing clear, inviting, and, where possible, accessible pathways through the natural landscape. Multi-Use Trail Network The East Hill Recreation Way has an existing spur that ends on the northeast corner of the site at Maple Ave, and a converted rails-to trails pathway that runs along the southwest side of Maplewood Phase I. The design is organized around completing the vital link between these two sections of the existing trail network, which offers car-free recreation and commuting options for residents of the Maplewood I and II site and to the surrounding neighborhoods within the Town and beyond. An improved crosswalk on Maple Ave is proposed. The team will work with the Town of Ithaca on the configuration of the crossing, which may be raised and/or include flashing beacons. The details for the crosswalk design will be developed in coordination with the Town of Ithaca staff PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II and the design team. Signage No signs are proposed at this time except for standard traffic control signs, which the locations and types will be coordinated with the Town Engineering and Department of Public Works. Architecture Building Concept The seven buildings in Maplewood Phase II are organized around connections to the East Ithaca Trail Net- work and maximizing interactions between Phase I and Phase II residents. Active and passive open spaces form around these major connections and a campus-like space prioritizes the pedestrian experience. Building entries and study lounges are located in the middle of each building to promote interaction where residents will circulate frequently. The architecture and landscape will seamlessly blend to reinforce connectivity and commu- nity. Community Centers as Social Nucleus The primary community space is located at the southern end of the site directly across from the Phase I Com- munity Center. The new Community Center is nestled into the landscape as close to Phase I as possible to allow for maximum connections between the two community spaces. The programs in the new Community Center will complement and supplement the programs in Phase I. By combining the Community Centers, a social heart for the entire community is established. Graduate students want to be part of a vibrant community, rich with neighborly social interaction and balanced with independent apartment-style living. The team recognizes the generous communal offerings at Maplewood Phase I and offers a complimentary, differentiated amenity package in Phase II. Shared, diversified features offer benefits to both Phase I and Phase II residents, sparking renewed interest and uniting the Maplewood community. The majority of community amenities are planned within a centralized hub to maximize social op- portunities. A study lounge will be provided on almost every floor of each building, for a total of approximately 52, to sup- plement private in-unit workspace. A survey of Maplewood Phase I residents ranked group study spaces as the most imperative and desirable amenity, prioritizing academic success. Providing a variety of seating and room options, such as acoustically controlled office-style pods, open booths, and communal tables allows students to choose spaces that support an array of assignments, work styles, collaboration, and moods. The resident survey also revealed great interest in larger fitness accommodations with a wellness focus, pro- viding specialty equipment and semi-private spaces for personalized and restorative workouts. Coffee and food naturally encourage conversation and exchange. A centralized café commons where students can mingle and gather over a meal or snack enriches the community culture. In combination with an outdoor terrace retreat, the inclusion of comfortable lounge seating, games, and dining tables is welcoming and entertaining for events, indoor/outdoor living, and daily relaxation. To respond to high rates of pet and bike ownership, a pet spa in Phase II complements the popular dog park provided in Phase I, and a bike workshop that offers repair capa- bilities. Pet and bike-focused amenities identify a micro-community for owners, as well as providing superlative care and convenience. A playground for families or guests with children is provided at Maplewood I as well. Material Palette The facade design implements strategies to relate the new buildings with the scale of the Phase I residences, with multiple tones and textures, building offsets, and window groupings. Materials will consist of stone mason- ry veneer walls and landscape elements where the buildings meet the ground. The stone will be set in a recti- linear ashlar pattern that reflects the linear quality of the native bluestone found throughout the Ithaca area and in its gorges. Upper floors will be clad in durable fiber cement board in a vertical orientation with intermittent battens. The boards will be painted in lighter warm tones to reflect the colors of nature and will be accented with trim in a variety of colors and widths. All residential units will have operable punched windows while study lounges and PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II other amenity spaces will include larger expanses of storefront glass to maximize views, daylight, and con- nection with the outdoors. These larger expanses which might be more likely to cause bird strikes will utilize bird-friendly glass. The community center building will complement the residential buildings and utilize similar materials but with a more vibrant palette of red-brown natural earth inspired colors. This building will have glass storefront windows surrounding its largest interior gathering space and exposed mass timber construction. Building Envelope The building envelope will be designed to meet current energy code requirements with an emphasis on high thermal performance, airtightness, increased ventilation rates, and energy recovery. Materials will also be chosen to reduce environmental impact during their entire life cycle from extraction to deconstruction/recycling/ upcycling, thus reducing the embodied carbon along with the operational carbon impact. All roofs will be flat except for the community center. Roofs will have high levels of insulation and light-colored surfaces to return a large part of the sun’s rays to the atmosphere (high albedo). Superstructure The superstructure will be primarily 5 levels of panelized light wood frame construction. Due to the significant topography of the site, some buildings will include a partial basement level and/or split level as the site steps. Substructure The basis of design for the foundation systems is slab-on-grade with footings. Conclusion The Maplewood Phase II project will bring much-needed graduate student housing to a neighborhood targeted by the Town of Ithaca for more dense development. The Greystar team is committed to continuing to provide high-quality, affordable, and sustainable housing to the Cornell and Ithaca communities and looks forward to discussing the project with the Town of Ithaca Board, the Town of Ithaca Planning Board, and the neighboring community.

This approach creates greater connectivity between the project site and the surrounding trail network and encourages alternative multimodal transportation, such as TCAT, bicycles, and car sharing. The project would increase the housing stock of Cornell and the Town of Ithaca, helping to mitigate the current shortage and demands for housing. By taking advantage of the existing infra- structure provided by the site, the project would not only create a more livable and connected development but also help prevent sprawl from continuing to occur on the periphery of the Town. A key element of this project is a well-informed public that actively contributes to and benefits from our initia- tives. As you are aware, public participation and outreach are critical for success at the planning stage and for fostering continued engagement with the local community. This Public Outreach Plan will provide an effective model for communication between the public and our team. Individual meetings, group meetings, and open communication lines will ensure that accurate information is conveyed promptly to stakeholders and that all participating parties have been properly involved in or made aware of the planning and design process. We will engage with the community to ensure a harmonious development process by: 1. Offering community leaders and stakeholders individual or small group updates on project goals and progress. 2. Working with local and regional media to ensure that a full and accurate narrative of the project is in the public eye. The following have been identified by our team and/or Town of Ithaca staff as important stakeholders to en- gage: 1. Stakeholders to Engage for Individual Meetings - Belle Sherman Elementary School - East Lawn Cemetery Association 2. Stakeholders to Appear as Agenda Item - Collegetown Neighborhood Council 3. Stakeholders to Engage for Group Meetings - Belle Sherman Cottages Homeowners Association - Belle Sherman-Bryant Park Civic Association - Cornell University Graduate School - Cornell Graduate Student Assembly - Current residents of Maplewood I 4. Stakeholders With Whom to Share Findings from Meetings - Cornell University Graduate School - Cornell Real Estate PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II TRAFFIC STUDY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II PLANNING BOARD PRELIMINARY SPR07-19-2024 MAPLEWOOD II
