Title. This section shall be known and cited as the "Coastal Conservation
District - Woodmere Club (CC-WC)."
B.
Purpose.
(1)
The purpose of this section, in coordination with the contiguous
neighboring Town of Hempstead ("Town") and Village of Woodsburgh,
is to regulate development in the environmentally sensitive coastal
areas that span the municipal boundaries of the Village and the contiguous
Town and Village of Woodsburgh, including the area occupied by the
Woodmere Club, allowing for the enhanced preservation and protection
of the Village's and neighboring Town and Village of Woodsburgh's
environmental, coastal, open space, natural and cultural resources
and the preservation of the residential neighborhoods, both within
the Village, the Village of Woodsburgh and the unincorporated areas
of the Town, in and about the former Woodmere Club.
(2)
In the low-lying southern coastal areas of the Village and the
adjacent contiguous Town and Village there are located golf courses
that have been in place for more than a century, which open spaces
provide not only recreation but a natural mitigation against adverse
impacts on the environment and, therefore, the well-being and safety
of the entire region.
(3)
Climate change is becoming the defining environmental issue
of our time, particularly for vulnerable, low-lying coastal areas.
This change has taken shape already, in the form of more frequent
and intense storms, sea level rise and extreme flooding. It is no
longer a future endeavor, but rather a sound planning imperative that
the Village, the Town and the Village of Woodsburgh, immediately address
ongoing and future conditions, including greater risks of flooding
presented by sea level rise and enhanced storm surge, inland flooding
expected to result from increasingly frequent extreme precipitation
events and the increased risk of compound flooding, resulting from
simultaneous storm surge and heavy precipitation. Through proper and
coordinated regulation, the Village intends to do its part in preserving
the health, safety, and well-being of residents in the area of the
Woodmere Club and the surrounding community.
(4)
Along the coast, and particularly in low-lying coastal areas,
it is imperative that the Village, Town and the Village of Woodsburgh,
as stewards of the environment and protectors of their community safety,
health and welfare, assure that flood risk mitigation measures effectively
preserve the floodplain and surrounding areas. As the Department of
Environmental Conservation has expressed, the goal of managing the
floodplain is not only to ensure that new development is reasonably
safe from flooding, but to address existing risks, to avoid increasing
risk to others and to sustain natural capacities to slow and diffuse
flood flows. Reducing development in flood-prone areas allows the
natural landscape to absorb more floodwaters, reduce flooding to adjacent
areas, recharge groundwater and sustain a healthy ecosystem.
(5)
As a result of declining golf participation and membership at
eighteen-hole golf clubs, golf courses are closing, including the
Woodmere Club. The land of the Woodmere Club ("the Woodmere Club property")
is approximately 118.4 acres in size and is located partially in the
Village (approximately 22.9 acres), the Town (approximately 55 acres)
and Village of Woodsburgh (approximately 40.5 acres).
(6)
As a result, this large and mostly open coastal area, spanning
the boundaries of these three contiguous municipalities, is vulnerable
to residential and commercial development, seriously threatening both
this environmentally sensitive coastal area, and the well-being of
the Village, the Town, the Village of Woodsburgh and the region as
a whole, and which potential adverse impacts and loss of existing
open space will not be adequately mitigated by existing and inconsistent
zoning regulations in both the contiguous Town and Villages with respect
to permissible development, lot size, lot coverage, density, building
height and site-specific development regulations.
(7)
It is the belief of the Village, in coordination with the contiguous
Town and Village of Woodsburgh, that, unless addressed, the loss of
this existing open space to over-development in the environmentally
sensitive coastal area of the Village presents an immediate threat
to the public health and safety of the Village, the adjacent Town
and Village of Woodsburgh, and the region as a whole, and can best
be mitigated, and the additional benefits accomplished, with the coordinated
creation of matching complementary Coastal Conservation District[s]
in each municipality in conjunction with the adjacent contiguous Town
and Village of Woodsburgh.
(8)
The Woodmere Club property is located in a relatively vulnerable,
low-lying coastal area, well within a special flood hazard area (100-year
floodplain) and the New York State Coastal Boundary Area. The Woodmere
Club property is also impacted by shallow groundwater conditions.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC)
has identified the presence of significant natural communities and
rare plants and animals at the Woodmere Club property. The Woodmere
Club property has also been identified by the New York State Office
of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) as a potentially
archeologically sensitive area. Given the presence of these environmental
and cultural resources, the Village intends to provide for a cluster
development, in accordance with Village Law § 7-738, with
reduced lot size requirements, in this area to properly conserve and
protect the low-lying, vulnerable coastal area and natural area and
resources.
(9)
A traditional subdivision layout with a minimum lot size of
40,000 square feet within the approximately twenty-two-and-nine-tenths-acre
Village portion of the course would have a gross yield of approximately
21 lots, but the net yield would be reduced significantly when accounting
for area regulations, open space and/or parkland preservation, roadway
and infrastructure elements and reserved drainage areas. Cluster-style
development provided herein and in the contiguous Town and Village
of Woodsburgh portions of the Woodmere Club property provides for
the preservation of some of the most sensitive environmental portions
of the property, while permitting sustainable residential development
utilizing a cluster subdivision technique within all three municipalities.
Sustainable design elements will be required in all residential development
applications, incorporating a sustainable approach and low-impact
development principles.
(10)
While the Village recognizes its responsibility to provide for
a properly balanced and well-ordered plan of development and land
uses within its community, it also recognizes that, in enacting local
zoning, consideration must be given to regional needs and requirements,
and that there must be a balancing of the local desire to maintain
the status quo within the community and the greater public interest
that regional needs be met.
(11)
The New York State General Municipal Law, § 239-NN,
indicates the intent and purpose of the State of New York to encourage
the coordination of land use development and regulation among adjacent
municipalities in order that each adjacent municipality may recognize
the goals and objectives of neighboring municipalities, and as a result
development occurs in a manner which is supportive of the goals and
objectives of the general area and neighboring municipalities.
(12)
Pursuant to Article 8, §§ 1 and 2-a of the New
York State Constitution, as effectuated by General Municipal Law Article
5-J, § 119-u, Village Law § 7-741, and Town Law
§ 284, the Village, Town, and the Village of Woodsburgh
agreed to coordinate regulation and entered into an intermunicipal
cooperation planning and land use regulation agreement (the "intermunicipal
cooperation agreement") with the purpose of undertaking mutually beneficial,
shared and coordinated comprehensive planning and land use regulation
for the Woodmere Club property in order to promote intergovernmental
cooperation, increase coordination and effectiveness of comprehensive
planning and land use regulation, make more efficient use of infrastructure
and municipal revenues and resources, as to enhance the protection
of community resources which span municipal boundaries.
(13)
It is in that spirit, and pursuant to agreement of all three
municipalities to work together and the intermunicipal cooperation
agreement, that the Village, in conjunction and coordination with
the adjacent contiguous Town and Village of Woodsburgh, adopts and
creates the Coastal Conservation District - Woodmere Club (CC-WC),
for the Village of Lawrence.
(14)
The Coastal Conservation District- Woodmere Club (CC-WC) district
represents an intermunicipal plan that addresses current and future
physical climate risk changes due to sea level rise, storm surge and
flooding. The district recognizes these impacts in relation to the
unique geographical setting of the property at the Woodmere Channel
terminus, its historical and environmentally and ecologically sensitive
setting, and the anticipated flood impacts associated with this location.
The risks to both private and public, and existing and future, development
from flooding in this location under current and anticipated future
conditions, necessitates multijurisdictional regulation guided by
preservation and protection. The CC-WC District incorporates climate
change considerations, while preserving both existing development
and infrastructure, as well as protecting future development, including
development on the Club property, from the virtual certainty of increasing
flood risks as time progresses.
(15)
The Coastal Conservation District - Woodmere Club establishes three subdistricts to ensure the preservation of existing open space and regulate development in a manner that is compatible with area zoning and development patterns. The Open Space/Recreation Subdistrict and the Single-Family Residential Subdistrict both include portions of the Village and the contiguous Town of Hempstead and Village of Woodsburgh, while the Clubhouse/Hospitality Subdistrict is located wholly within the Village of Woodsburgh. The three subdistricts are described in Subsection J of this section.
(16)
The Village of Lawrence Board of Trustees (hereinafter "Village
Board") finds that the creation of this zoning district, with its
three subdistricts, is in harmony with the coordinated creation of
a similar zoning district in the contiguous Town of Hempstead and
Village of Woodsburgh, is in the public interest and that the provisions
of these coordinated contiguous complementary zoning districts in
each municipality are in the interest of the protection and promotion
of the public health, general welfare and safety of both the residents
of the Village and contiguous Town of Hempstead and Village of Woodsburgh.
(17)
The creation of this district, in coordination with the contiguous
municipalities, is intended to preserve the Village's natural resources
and environmental features, while also preserving community character
and the economic value of other properties in the neighborhood in
and about the Woodmere Club property. Special consideration is provided
for sustainable design elements, which will help to mitigate flood
impacts, preserve open space, decrease stormwater runoff, improve
local water quality, and reduce traffic impacts. The regulations contained
within this section have been designed to be compatible and complementary
with other permitted land uses in the area and contiguous municipalities
and protect the character of their existing and developed residential
communities.
C.

If any other provision shall be so adjudged, it shall not invalidate the remainder of this section. If there is found to be any imprecision, including but not limited to lot descriptions or acreage of total property, such will not invalidate this ordinance.
J.
Subdistricts established. The Coastal Conservation District - Woodmere
Club establishes three subdistricts to ensure the preservation of
existing open space and regulate development in a manner that's compatible
with area zoning and development patterns. The Open Space/Recreation
Subdistrict and the Single-Family Residential Subdistrict both include
portions of the Town of Hempstead and the contiguous Villages of Woodsburgh
and Lawrence, while the Clubhouse/Hospitality Subdistrict is located
wholly within the Village of Woodsburgh. The three subdistricts of
the Coastal Conservation District - Woodmere Club are provided in
Figures 1 and 2[1] below and are described as follows:
(1)
Open space/recreation subdistrict. Accounting for approximately 21.1 acres of the approximately twenty-two-and-nine-tenths-acre Village of Lawrence portion of the property (92% of the land area within the Village of Lawrence) and approximately 83.3 acres of the approximately one-hundred-eighteen-and-four-tenths-acre Woodmere Club (70% of total land area), the intent of the Open Space/Recreation Subdistrict is to preserve critical coastal open space areas to the maximum practicable extent. These open space areas provide flood mitigation from storm surge, stormwater, and sea level rise, provide critical habitats for wildlife and contribute significantly to the unique community character of the area. In recognition of the flood mitigation provided by these open space areas, and the protection of existing development and infrastructure in the Town and the surrounding area, the use of fill shall be regulated by the restrictions specified herein. Within the Open Space/Recreational Subdistrict, grading for the purposes of floodwater storage, including compensatory storage requirements of the Village of Lawrence (Lawrence Village Code: Chapter 94, Flood Damage Prevention, Article V Construction Standards, § 94-13, General standards) and the Village of Woodsburgh (Woodsburgh Village Code: Chapter 77, Flood Damage Prevention, Article V Construction Standards. § 77-15, General standards), shall be permitted. In addition, within the Open Space/Recreational Subdistrict, with the exception of areas associated for access, as defined in § 212-13.1T(3) of this section, any removal of trees greater than six-inch caliper, or raising of grade by more than 12 inches, requires an administrative approval by the Town Board pursuant to Town Code and the Building Zone Ordinance.
(2)
Single-family residential subdistrict. The Single-Family Residential
Subdistrict (approximately 29.4 acres of the approximately one-hundred-eighteen-and-four-tenths-acre
Woodmere Club property, or 25% of total land area) comprises two distinct
development clusters, one in the Town of Hempstead portion of the
Woodmere Club property (approximately 19.3 acres in size) and one
straddling the boundaries of the Village of Woodsburgh and the Village
of Lawrence portions of the Woodmere Club property (approximately
10.1 acres in size). These clusters, zoned for residential housing
(religious and educational uses permitted by special exception), will
allow development that is compatible with the existing one-acre minimum
lot zoning in the Village of Woodsburgh and the forty-thousand-square-foot
minimum lot zoning in the Village of Lawrence, while retaining significantly
more open space than provided for in previous zoning and land use
regulations.
(3)
Clubhouse/Hospitality Subdistrict. The Clubhouse/Hospitality
Subdistrict is limited to approximately 5.7 acres within the Village
of Woodsburgh portion of the Woodmere Club property. The intent of
this subdistrict is to preserve and enhance the existing clubhouse
of the Woodmere Club and its associated hospitality services, including
the parking areas, athletic courts and outdoor swimming pool. This
subdistrict is regulated entirely by the Village of Woodsburgh and
is not subject to the regulations set forth in this section.
