The Project Site consists of approximately 84 acres of the former PUD that was approved for Doral Arrowwood and Doral Greens. The Project Site's 84 acres are situated primarily on the western side of the prior PUD where the hotel and conference center is located, and also include the former golf course holes that are directly adjacent to and around the Site and the Doral Greens residences. The Project Site does not include the Doral Greens residences on the eastern side of the former PUD, which are to remain. The Project Site does not include the land owned by the Applicant in Connecticut. The proposed redevelopment project (“Proposed Project”) includes, but is not limited to, the construction of: • A health and wellness lodge with approximately 220 hotel rooms for guests and 40 residential units, along with a grand ballroom and conference center for banquets and events, spa and fitness facilities, restaurants, pools, pavilions, tennis and pickleball courts and other recreational amenities and site improvements. The lodge would consist of 7 levels above ground and 2 garden levels. It would replace the existing 360-room hotel/conference center building, which has been vacant since 2019. • A separate residential multifamily building containing approximately 75 units, including 12 affordable housing units, as well as amenity rooms, lounges, and fitness facilities/outdoor pool for residents. The multi-family building would consist of 5 levels above ground and a parking level below ground. • A medical/wellness office building with 2 levels above ground, approximately 6 workforce housing units, and parking garden level semi below ground. • Additional at-grade surface parking areas. • Reconfiguration of the existing access drive from Anderson Hill Road, as well as a new access drive from Anderson Hill Road. • A boathouse pavilion building adjacent to the east of the existing waterbody. Expansion and enhancement of existing waterbody. Include qualitative description of the expansion of the existing waterbody. • Refurbishment of the landscaping of the former golf course holes directly adjacent to and around the existing Doral Greens residences to the east. • Other site improvements (such as stormwater management facilities, utilities, and lighting). The Site is within a Planned Unit Development (PUD) District, Airport Zoning District Z-1 (Instrument Approach Zone), Airport Zoning District 2-4 (Outer Turning Zone), and the Village’s Anderson Hill Road Scenic Road Overlay District. To allow for the redevelopment 2 of the Project Site, the Applicant has petitioned the Village Board of Trustees (“Board of Trustees” or “BOT”) to amend the Zoning Code to establish a new PUD known as the “975 Anderson Hill Road Planned Unit Development” (“Proposed Zoning”). While the Project would comply with most of the existing PUD regulations, the new PUD would establish certain use and bulk regulations applicable to the Project Site to ensure zoning compliance. The redevelopment also requires a PUD Concept Plan, Site Plan Approval (and possibly Subdivision), tree removal, wetland/watercourse buffer disturbance and steep slopes permits, and certain other approvals. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA, Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law and its implementing regulations at 6 NYCRR 617), the Village BOT, acting as Lead Agency, has determined that the Proposed Project and Proposed Zoning (together, the “Proposed Action”) have the potential to result in one or more significant adverse environmental impacts. The Applicant voluntarily agreed to the preparation of an EIS by unilaterally submitting the Draft Scoping Document with its initial application on March 27, 2024.This Scoping Document was prepared to establish the scope of analysis for the preparation of the DEIS. Description of the Proposed Action The Proposed Action to be evaluated in the DEIS includes (1) the Proposed Rezoning, and (2) the approval of the physical redevelopment of the Project Site in accordance with the PUD Concept Plans and inclusive of all State, County and local discretionary approvals necessary for the Proposed Project. Together, the Proposed Zoning and the Proposed Project constitute the “Proposed Action” for evaluation in the DEIS pursuant to SEQRA. Proposed Zoning On March 27th, 2024, the Applicant submitted a Verified Petition to the Board of Trustees for the Proposed Zoning. A copy of the proposed Zoning Amendment is annexed to this Scoping Document as Exhibit A. Proposed Project As described above, the Applicant’s proposed mixed-use Project would include a new lodge (containing a hotel and conference center, approximately 40 residential units, ballrooms and other uses), a separate multifamily residential building (containing approximately 75 units, 12 of which would be affordable housing units), and a wellness center/medical office building that would contain approximately 6 workforce units for employee housing, together with related amenities, landscaping, parking and other site improvements, on approximately 84 acres. The Applicant is also proposing modifications to the existing waterbody on the subject property which includes expansion of the waterbody and the addition of amenities surrounding the lake. The Project is designed to attract visitors to the Village from around the region to enjoy the Project’s expert wellness, dining, hospitality, and recreational activities. This will be both a tourist destination and an opportunity to offer a unique housing type in the Village that differs from a traditional single-family home. The Project will also be a community amenity that could 3 host weddings and other life-cycle events, charity banquets, fundraisers, and similar celebrations. The former Doral Arrowwood was a sought-after destination for these types of uses, and the Project’ grand ballrooms and related facilities will once again provide a home for such events. Purpose and Need Description of the Applicant’s needs and objectives for the development, and the benefit to the public. Required Approvals The Proposed Action requires the approvals listed below. The agencies responsible for those approvals are considered “Involved Agencies” pursuant to SEQRA. 4 Table 1 Required Approvals Reviewing Agency Approval Required Village of Rye Brook Board of Trustees PUD Concept Plan Approval PUD Subdivision Approval (if required) PUD Site Plan Approval PUD Zoning Text Amendment Tree Removal Permit Village of Rye Brook Planning Board Wetland/Watercourse Buffer Disturbance Permit Steep Slope Work Permit Village of Rye Brook Board of Architectural Review Architectural Review Approval Village of Rye Brook Department of Public Works/Building Department MS4/SWPPP Approval, Floodplain Development Permit; Building Permit, SWMC Permit, Street Opening Permit New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) SPDES General Permit GP-0-20-001 5-Acre Waiver, Joint Permit Application with USACE New York State Division for Historic Preservation (SHPO) NYS Section 14.09 Review Westchester County Department of Health (WCDOH) Realty Subdivision Approval (if required) Water Main, Sewer Main, Backflow Prevention, Portable Rock Crushing/Power Screening Equipment Westchester County Planning Board NYS Chapter 239 Municipal Law Referral Westchester County Department of Public Works & Transportation Stream Control Permit U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Joint Permit Application with NYSDEC Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Form 7460-1 Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration Required Elements of the DEIS The DEIS will conform to requirements for preparation and content of environmental impact statements as stipulated in 6 NYCRR 617.9, which include, but are not limited to, the following: ● A description of the proposed Project and its environmental setting; ● A statement of the potential significant adverse environmental impacts of the proposed Project, including its short- and long- term effects, and typical associated environmental effects; ● An identification of any significant adverse environmental effects that cannot be 5 avoided if the proposed Project is implemented; ● A description of mitigation measures proposed to minimize or avoid any significant adverse environmental impacts of the proposed Project to the maximum extent practicable; ● A discussion of alternatives to the proposed Project; and ● An identification of any irreversible and irretrievable commitments of resources that would be involved in the proposed Project should it be implemented.
