WHEREAS, the Agency is authorized and empowered by the provisions of Chapter 1030
of the 1969 Laws of New York, constituting Title 1 of Article 18-A of the General Municipal Law, Chapter 24 of the Consolidated Laws of New York, as amended (the “Enabling Act”), Chapter 435 of the Laws of 1970 of the State of New York and Chapter 676 of the Laws of 1975 of the State of New York, as amended, constituting Section 895 of said General Municipal Law (said Chapter and the Enabling Act being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Act’) to promote, develop, encourage and assist in the acquiring, constructing, reconstructing, improving, maintaining, equipping and furnishing of manufacturing, warehousing, research, commercial and industrial facilities, among others, for the purpose of promoting, attracting and developing economically sound commerce and industry to advance the job opportunities, health, general prosperity and economic welfare of the people of the State of New York (the “State”), to improve their prosperity and standard of living, and to prevent unemployment and economic deterioration; and
WHEREAS, to accomplish its stated purposes, the Agency is authorized and empowered
under the Act to acquire, construct, reconstruct and install one or more “projects” (as defined in the Act), or to cause said projects to be acquired, constructed, reconstructed and installed, and to convey said projects or to lease said projects with the obligation to purchase; and
WHEREAS, the Agency believes acquiring property that becomes currently available can
spur economic development by eliminating property acquisition time and costs for developers with the ability to bring various industries to Onondaga County; and
WHEREAS, certain persons (collectively, the “Seller”) own certain parcels of real property
located in the Town of Clay, and in the Town of Cicero, County of Onondaga (each a “Property” collectively, the Properties); and
WHEREAS, the Properties consist of certain parcels of real property located (i) at 8901
Brewerton Road, Town of Cicero (Tax Map No. 120.-01.-01.0), (ii) at 8873 Brewerton Road, Town of Cicero (Tax Map No. 120.-01.-02.1) and (iii) on Burnet Road, Town of Clay, (Tax Map No. 048.-01-20.0); and
WHEREAS, the Seller has submitted to the Agency a purchase and sale (the “LOI’)
specifying the terms and conditions pursuant to which each Seller would agree to sell its respective Property to the Agency; and
WHEREAS, the Executive Director has negotiated the LOI with the guidance of Agency
counsel and finds the terms to be fair and satisfactory for the Agency; and
WHEREAS, the Agency desires to purchase the Properties from the Seller pursuant to the
terms of the LOI (together, the “Project”); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law of the State of
New York, as amended, and the regulations of the Department of Environmental Conservation of the State of New York promulgated thereunder (collectively referred to hereinafter as “SEQRA”), the Agency is required to make a determination with respect to the environmental impact of any Type I or Unlisted “action” (as defined by SEQRA) to be taken by the Agency, and the acquisition of the Properties constitutes such an action; and
WHEREAS, an Environmental Assessment Form (the “EAF”) has been prepared to aid the
Agency in determining whether the acquisition of the Properties may have a significant effect upon the environment; and
WHEREAS, the action is limited to the acquisition of the Properties; and
WHEREAS, any consideration of potential impacts associated with any future
development of the Properties at this time would be purely speculative as there is no current application pending before the Agency to develop the Properties; and
WHEREAS, acquisition of the Properties does not commit the Agency to any future action
or development of the Properties; and
WHEREAS, any future project or development that includes the Properties will be required
to undergo a complete and thorough environmental review pursuant to SEQRA; and
WHEREAS, the Agency’s present environmental review of the acquisition of the
Properties will therefore be no less protective of the environment due to the project specific SEQRA review that would be necessary concerning any future development of the Properties.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MEMBERS OF THE ONONDAGA
COUNTY INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AGENCY AS FOLLOWS:
(1) Based upon an examination of the EAF prepared for the action, the criteria contained in 6 NYCRR §617.7(c), and based further upon the Agency’s knowledge of the Properties, and such further investigation of the Project and its environmental effects as the Agency has deemed appropriate, the Agency makes the following findings and determinations with respect to the Project pursuant to SEQRA:
(a) The Project consists of the components described above;
(b) The Project constitutes a “Type I” action (as said quoted term is defined in SEQRA):
(c) The Project (1) does not direct any subsequent development or commit the Agency to future actions, (2) potential future development, if it were to occur, would be dependent upon environmental conditions and other factors that are currently unknown, and (3) the Agency’s review of the Project will be no less protective of the environment since any potential future development of the Properties must undergo a thorough environmental review pursuant to SEQRA;
(d) The Agency, acting as “Lead Agency” (as said quoted term is defined in SEQRA), hereby determines that the Project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment, and the Agency will not require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement with respect to the Project; and (e) As a consequence of the foregoing, the Agency has prepared a Negative Declaration with respect to the Project, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit “A”. (2) A copy of this Resolution, together with the attachments hereto, shall be placed on file in the office of the Agency where the same shall be available for public inspection during business hours.
(3) The Agency’s counsel is hereby authorized and directed to distribute and file this Resolution in accordance with the requirements of SEQRA.

Part 2 - Identification of Potential Project Impacts _ Date:
Part 2 is to be completed by the lead agency. Part 2 is designed to help the lead agency inventory all potential resources that could be affected by a proposed project or action. We recognize that the lead agencys reviewer(s) will not necessarily be environmental professionals. So, the questions are designed to walk a reviewer through the assessment process by providing a series of questions that can be answered using the information found in Part 1. To further assist the lead agency in completing Part 2, the form identifies the most relevant questions in Part | that will provide the information needed to answer the Part 2 question. When Part 2 is completed, the lead agency will have identified the relevant environmental areas that may be impacted by the proposed activity. If the lead agency is a state agency and the action is in any Coastal Area, complete the Coastal Assessment Form before proceeding with this assessment.

Full Environmental Assessment Form Part 3 - Evaluation of the Magnitude and Importance of Project Impacts and Determination of Significance Part 3 provides the reasons in support of the determination of significance. The lead agency must complete Part 3 for every question in Part 2 where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where there is a need to explain why a particular element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse environmental impact. Based on the analysis in Part 3, the lead agency must decide whether to require an environmental impact statement to further assess the proposed action or whether available information is sufficient for the lead agency to conclude the proposed action will not have a significant adverse environmental impact. By completing the certification on the next page, the lead agency can complete its determination of significance.
Reasons Supporting This Determination:
To complete this section:
¢ — Identify the impact based on the Part 2 responses and describe its magnitude. Magnitude considers factors such as severity, size, or extent of an impact.
¢ Assess the importance of the impact. Importance relates to the geographic scope, duration, probability of the impact occurring, number of people affected by the impact, and any additional environmental consequences if the impact were to occur.
e The assessment should take into consideration any design element or project changes. ¢ Repeat this process for each Part 2 question where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where there is a need to explain why a particular element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse environmental impact.
¢ — Provide the reason(s) why the impact may, or will not, result in a significant adverse environmental impact. ¢ For Conditional Negative Declarations identify the specific condition(s) imposed that will modify the proposed action so that no significant adverse environmental impacts will result.
e Attach additional sheets, as needed.
The proposed action involves the purchase of real property by the Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency. No significant impacts have been identified in the completion and review of the Part 1 and Part 2 environmental assessment form.

and considering both the magnitude and importance of each identified potential impact, it is the conclusion of the as lead agency that:
A. This project will result in no significant adverse impacts on the environment, and, therefore, an environmental impact statement need not be prepared. Accordingly, this negative declaration is issued. | B. Although this project could have a significant adverse impact on the environment, that impact will be avoided or substantially mitigated because of the following conditions that will be required by the lead agency: There will, therefore, be no significant adverse impacts from the project as conditioned, and, therefore, this conditioned negative declaration is issued. A conditioned negative declaration may be used only for UNLISTED actions (see 6 NYCRR 617.7(d)). oO C. This Project may result in one or more significant adverse impacts on the environment and an environmental impact statement must be prepared to further assess the impact(s) and possible mitigation and to explore alternatives to avoid or reduce those impacts. Accordingly, this positive declaration is issued.
