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 on 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
0 Identify the Portions of EAF completed for this project: Part 1 al Part 2 II Part 3
Upon review of the information recorded on this EM (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 .
I 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

PART 2 - PROJECT IMPACTS AND THEIR MAGNITUDE
Responsibility of Lead Agency
0 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.
I 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.
I 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 Pad 3.

Town of Dryden Subdivision Local Law
SEQRA Review
Long Environmental Assessment Perm
Part 1 D . Informational Details
f. l_SGQRA and Subdivision Local Laws
The adoption of a subdivision law by a town is an Unlisted Action as defined by the
State Environmental Quality Review Act NYCRR 617 . The Town of Dryden is not
required to filt out a long Environmental Assessment Form when adopting a
subdivision law , However, the Long Environmental Assessment Form is typically
used to evaluate the environmental impact of a proposed law relative to ] and use,
but is not designed for such purpose. That being the case, the form has been filled
out as Not Applicable ( NA) choosing rather to discuss the environmental assessment
in Part D . of the Form, which allows for supplemental information to be included
with the long EAF,
The proposed Subdivision Law represents two significant changes relative to the
existing law; Minor Subdivision approval , and Conservation Subdivisions. The
procedural substance is much the same as the existing law, but has been updated to
he consistent with State Town Law, The crux of environmental impact fora law of
this type depends upon only two Factors. First, sloes it somehow introduce a type of
subdivision that would adversely affect the environment more than a typical
I, subdivision's And of course it should he considered whether the law follows and is
consistent with an adopted Comprehensive Plan ,
D. 2 , introduction of New Types of Subdivision : Conservation
The proposed Subdivision Local Law introduces the ability and procedures for
establishing a Conservation Subdivision , A Conservation Subdivision seeks to
protect the natural features of site through legal instruments, often using e cluster
approach to lots to provide the same or a similar number of lots as a conventional
subdivision _ The purpose of a Conservation Subdivision is to protect environmental
resources, and therefore no environmental impact From providing this option is to
be expected, but rather an environmental benefit,
DA . Comprehensive Plan Consistency
New York State Town Law and SEQRA review require that Local Laws are consistent
with an adopted comprehensive plan _ Because of this, many comprehensive plans
are followed with appropriate land use law updates normally the coning and
subdivision laws , The process in Dryden is no different, and as is demonstrated
below, the proposed subdivision law is not only consistent with the 2005
Comprehensive Plan , but also the 1968 General Plan ,
01. 3 . 1 The 1968 General Ilan
In 1968, the Town of Dryden adopted a General Plan , a joint venture with the
Villages of hreeville and Dryden that set forth the land use strategy for the past 43
years. In 2005 , the Town of Dryden adopted a Comprehensive Plan that followed to
•' I
1
a large degree the intent of the 1968 General Plan , Both of these plans stressed
protection of farmland and open space resources, and a balanced approach to
development that encouraged development in the Village of Dryden and other
nodes, Varna, Etna and Freevi ] le, as water and sewer is available , The most obvious
major difference between the two plans is the proposed four- lane highway
connecting Cortland and Ithaca, which was never built. Obviously this has had
significant ramifications on the Town in terms of specific development opportunity
areas , However, Touts 13 and 366 remain the major travel routes through town,
and plans still point to these as both important transportation resources, as well as
a development opportunity for the Town of Dryden .
The 196B plan , proposed commercial development at the controlled access
interchanges of the proposed highway and in the Village of Dryden , and industrial
development near the 13 -366 interchange , Today, the 2005 plan refers to "nodal"
development" identifying points along the existing Route 13 corridors where
development should be encouraged _ Although the " nodes" are in slightly different
• places in some cases, the Route 366 and t3 -interchange area, and the Village of
l] i den are consistently identified as areas for development opportunity.
The 1968 plan also proposed an extensive conservation district for most of the
southern half, northeast corner, and Fail and Virgil Creek corridors including
Dryden Lake and Dryden Lake Outlet. Other vast areas to the northwest, southwest,
and eastern border were vaguely planned for 2 to h persons per gross acre, or about
one dwelling unit per acre.
The 1968 plan also identifies the intensely agricultural nature of the eastern side of
town, and recommends they be "protected from extensive non -farm development
whenever possible." The 20 {) 5 plan builds upon this by proposing a town led
purchase of development rights program _
D .3 . 2 The 2005 Comprehensive Plan
The 2005 Comprehensive Plan continues the same themes as the 1968 General Plan ,
but refines the techniques for protection of some resources, and encourages a nodal
approach to development but more specifically. Two major differences between the
1968 plan and the 2005 plan are essentially 37 years of development review in the
way of first a Zoning Ordinance adopted after the 1968 General Plan , and later a
Subdivision Ordinance as well as administration of the New hark State Building
Code. These years of reviewing development proposals and growth informed the
2095 Comprehensive Plan and allowed the Planning and Town Boards to refine
approaches on development and protection of resources ,
Other studies that helped inform the 2005 plan were a student led study by Cornell
on future land use and policies in the town, as well as the Open Space Inventory by
the Conservation Board , and the Unique Natural Areas Study performed by the
Tompkins County environmental !Management Council. These studies further
14101
defined the identification of resources in the town that are either p rotected , or
deserving of protection .
There are many other changes that occurred, or didn ' t occur between the 1968
General Plan and the 2005 Comprehensive Plan such as the advent of the Tompkins
County Environmental Health Department that reviews septic and well systems, and
requires specific lot dimensions for those lots not served by either municipal water
or sewer- But possibly more important is the public' s perception of development
and the landscape and the desire to protect character in the town relative to the
natural landscape and agriculture as evidenced to a certain degree by the
community survey that preceded the 2005 plan . Because of this, the 2005 plan
proposes very specific steps to protect open space through the development review
process, as well as direct steps to protect productive agricultural lands through the
purchase of conservation easements, as well as creating an Agriculture zoning
district that considered agriculture the ' highest and best use . "
The 2005 Comprehensive Plan recommends implementing extensive zoning and
subdivision amendments to allow and encourage cluster or conservation
subdivisions, limit density in the areas outside of the nodes, and encourage mined
use in the nodes, especially where municipal water and sewer is available , It also
recommends implementing design guidelines as a first step in encouraging a change
in hovelopinent patterns ,
0. 3.2. 1 Design Guidelines
The town followed the recommendation of the 2005 plan by adopting Residential
and Commercial Design Guidelines, including amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
to require adherence to the guidelines as well as a means of adjusting the
requirements of the zoning code to a I low the guidelines to be Followed. These have
helped to inspire new approaches by landowners to develop or protect their
property with a non - regulatory approach ,
0, 3, 2.2 2 01 21 Zoning Amendments'
The 2012 Zoning Ameclments follows the same pattern of encouraging development
in areas that are ideally suited to it physically, but that does not erode the rural
character of the town- The law creates nine distinct zoning districts ;
RR - Hural Residential District.
The purpose of the Rural Residential (RR) District is to writs an area of the town where
residential uses situated in a rural landscape constitute the primary laird rise. Public water and
sewer does not exist in this arm . Single- and two- Fancily hones am the predominant form of
development, Agriculelre 0 also expected to he a substarftial land ow well into the future.
Nit - Neighborhood Residential District
The purpose 01' the Neighborhood Residential levi era rlot is to define areas of the town where
established neighborhoods are situated in a rural landscape and constitute the primary land use.
Single family homes are the predominant form of development, and future development is
unlikely. Home Occupations are the primary commercial activity in this district Agriculture is
an allowed use in this district.
RA - Rural Agricultural District
The purpose of the Rural Agricultural (IM ) District is to dune an area of the town primarily for
agricultural use and associated natural areas protection. The Rural Agricultural District is an
area that is intended to remain rural and where agriculture is recognized as the prima]y land
use. Small-scale rural businesses, which are agriculturally related , or supporting may be
appropriate in this district.
CV - Conservation District.
The purpose of the Conservation (DT) District is to protect areas of the town that eonlain a
variety of ecological and open space assets that warrant protection from the impacts of
development. Residential uses and agriculture will remain the primary land use activities_
11 - Hamlet District
The purpose of the Hamlet (II ) District is to allow mixed- use development ill keeping with the
character of a small hamlet, The Hamlet District encourages new development and
redevelopment that will increase the attractiveness of these areas by offering a diversity of
options, including townhouses, single- and two- 1hmily dwellings, small apartment buildings, and
mixed use (residential /commercial ) buildings. New development should complement the
architectural and urban design character of existing buildings and streets in the hamlet
consistent with the Residential and Commercial Design Guidelines , Agriculture is an allowed use .
a MC - Mixed Use commercial District
The Mixed Use Commercial District allows a mix of retail and service businesses, office buildings
and research and development businesses such as computer sollware and equipment design
businesses es well as residential development. The district allows for mixed use development.
Agriculture is an allowed use in this district.
110 - Light Industrial f Office District
The purpose of the Light ] ndustrial /Office ( LID) District is to define a location in the town for
light industrial and warehousing enterprises, office buildings and administrative operations and
service Ma-prises. or research and development enterprises such as computer software and
equipment design businesses . {agriculture is an allowed use in this district.
1110-A - Light Ind ustrlal J Office if Adult Use District
The purpose of the Light Industrial/ Office/ Adult Use (1-10 - A ) District is to define an appropriate
laeation in the town fur adult uses that is separated from and nlinimixes impacts to non -
compatible uses such as residential areas, schools, churches and parks, in addition to adult uses,
all other uses permitted within the Light Industrial /Office District are permitted within the Light
industrial/ Office/Adult Use District. Agriculture is an allowed use in this district
TNDO - l' r:rditionol Neighborhood Development Overlay District
The purpose of the Traditional Neighborhood Development Overlay District (TNDO) is to
provide development alternatives for landowners located at the periphery of villages and in
hamlets that do not currently have water or sewer. Public water and sewer, does not currently
exist in these areas, and it will be necessary to develop or extend such infrastructure here in
order to take advantage of the development alternatives provided under the provisions of this
overlay district. Utilizing incentive zoning authority hi Town Law, land in the overlay district can
410
be developed more intensiviuly in return fur specified public benefits and the incorporation of
Traditional Neighborhood Design ('IND ) principles in the design of sites and structures- Small
scale businesses, primarily in mixed - use structures, can also be incorporated into t]icsc areas .
LSIiDI} - Large Scale Retail Development District
The purpose of the Large Scale Retail Development District (LSI4DD] is to provide the
opportunity to evaluate a location in the town where large- scale retail development may be
appropriate, and to define specific requirements lur the review and possible approval of large-
scale retail shops and shopping centers. This type of development requires a special use permit
to develop a property For large- scale stores or shopping centers as defined and regulated herein.
This district is not mapped, but may be proposed on any property, not in Tompkins County
rl ricultural District 1 , in the town along a State or County road .
These districts are new, and do not follow the current zoning ordinance in form or
on the map . They each serve a rather specific purpose , and the corresponding
allowed uses are crafted specifically to create specific patterns in de 'eloprncnt
consistent with the 2005 Comprehensive Plan - Also, there are no district "' up runes„
regarding density or overall development potential further indicating that there
would be no increased impact from existing land use laws, nor an undue impact of
the law' s own accord .
116 . Environmental Impact Determination
In consideration of the above information, i t is apparent that adoption of the Town
of Dryden Subdivision Local Law wi El have no measurable environmental impact, In
many ways, the law is intended to provide protection to the environment, and to
encourage healthy built environments, and mitigate the inevitable environmental
impacts of development on the land, and neighboring properties.
