OF 2015 INTRODUCTORY NO. OF 2015 A Local Law providing for the adoption of a revised "Community Preservation Project Plan," pursuant to Section § 64-e of the New York Town Law, which provides for the preservation of open space, historic places, and recreational areas within the Town of East Hampton, including the incorporated villages therein, to include lands reputedly owned by Susan Casper , and identified on the Suffolk County Tax Map as 300-90-3-6, all as more fully set forth in the text of the Local Law, said Local Law to read as follows: BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of East Hampton as follows: SECTION I. - FINDINGS AND OBJECTIVES: This local law adopts a revised "Community Preservation Project Plan" pursuant to Section § 64-e of the New York Town Law. The revised plan supplants the Community Preservation Project Plan which was first adopted by the Town Board on August 4, 1998 and adopted as revised on July 7, 2011 and which continues to list all properties whose preservation is necessary to the preservation of the community character of the Town of East Hampton. The Town Board would like to amend the plan as most recently adopted on July 7, 2011 to add a parcel consisting of approximately 3.3 acres of land reputedly owned by Susan Casper and located on 99 Northwest Landing Rd., East Hampton and identified on the Suffolk County Tax Map as 300-90-3-6 for the following reasons: This property is located within a Critical Environmental Area, a New York State Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat, a Scenic Area of Statewide Significance and is known to provide habitat for a wide variety of plants and animals. The existing improvements on site do not seem to meet the minimum setbacks for structures, sanitary or land clearing which has a direct impact on Northwest Creek. The degradation of these wetlands also impacts the fin fish, shellfish, overwintering waterfowl and a variety of protected animal species. For these reasons, this parcel meets the criteria set forth in Town Law 64-e that establishes and helps define what the preservation of community character involves. ---PAGE BREAK--- SECTION II. - COMMUNITY PRESERVATION PROJECT PLAN ADOPTED: For the reasons set forth in Section I hereof, the Town Board hereby approves and adopts the addition of approximately 3.3 acres of land reputedly owned by Susan Casper and located on 99 Northwest Landing Rd., East Hampton and identified on the Suffolk County Tax Map as 300-90-3-6 to the list of Open Space Recommendations in the "Community Preservation Project Plan" prepared by the Town Planning Department and dated July 7, 2011, said plan being intended to constitute, in its revised form, the community preservation project plan which is required by Section § 64-e of the New York Town Law and Article I ("Community Preservation Fund") of the East Hampton Town Code. SECTION III. - SEVERABILITY: Should any part or provision of this Local Law be decided by the courts to be unconstitutional or invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of this Local Law as a whole nor any part thereof other than the part so decided to be unconstitutional or invalid. SECTION IV. - EFFECTIVE DATE: This Local Law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State as provided by law.
