Page 2 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 (The hearing commenced at 9:01 a.m.) 3 MR. McNAMARA: Before we begin, one 4 issue is the mics are very sensitive. So, if there's 5 people speaking -- if we -- if other -- particularly 6 if other people are speaking, it gets picked up on 7 the mic and the Court Reporter can't take it down. 8 So, I'll ask everyone to please be quiet and 9 respectful of other people when they're speaking. 10 I'll start the -- I'll go through the 11 introduction of the public hearing, and then we'll 12 get to the individual comments. My name is Mark 13 McNamara, I'm with the Law Firm of Barclay Damon. We 14 are counsel to the Onondaga County Industrial 15 Development Agency, and we are the moderator of this 16 public hearing. There are a variety of OCIDA -- 17 OCIDA is the Onondaga -- Onondaga County I.D.A. 18 There are a variety of OCIDA personnel who are here, 19 staff and personnel who are here as well. 20 This hearing is being held by the 21 Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency, which 22 I'll refer to as OCIDA or the agency. Pursuant to 23 Article 2 of the New York Eminent Domain Procedure 24 Law, which is the E.D.P.L., and I'll call it that as 25 we go forward, in connection with the potential ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

Collectively, those are called the project 14 property interest, and that's how I will refer to 15 that. The real property parcels identified as S.P.L. 16 numbers, the three numbers I just -- I just 17 identified, located in the town are referred to below 18 as the property. 19 The purpose of the potential 20 acquisition of the project property interest is for 21 the unified and comprehensive re-development of the 22 White Pine Commerce Park and proposed Micron New York 23 Semiconductor Manufacturing L.L.C. project, which I 24 will refer to as that -- as project. When I talk 25 about the project, that's what I'm talking about. ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

Micron plans to invest 21 approximately one hundred billion dollars over the 22 next sixteen years to construct and operate a large 23 scale, state of the art, Dynamic Random Access 24 Memory, which is DRAM, the shorthand version, 25 Semiconductor Manufacturing Facility at the Park.

Page 8 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 That's the Mic -- which was referred to as the Micron 3 Campus, what I've just described. 4 In addition to the Micron Campus, 5 Micron also plans to construct a Rail Spur and 6 construction material conveyance facility to reduce 7 truck trips and support construction of the Micron 8 Campus. That I'll refer to as the Rail Spur site. 9 A childcare center, healthcare center, 10 and recreational center to serve its employees, 11 that's the childcare site, and to lease existing 12 warehouse space within twenty miles of the Micron 13 Campus, which would be the warehouse site -- site, 14 collectively with the Micron Campus, all of that is 15 the project. 16 The application requests the agency 17 acquire the project property interest by eminent 18 domain or negotiated purchase to effect -- to 19 effectuate the project. The one thousand three 20 hundred seventy-seven acre -- approximately one 21 thousand three hundred seventy-seven acre, Micron 22 Campus will include the Park, a twenty-eight -- an 23 approximately twenty-eight acre portion of the Park, 24 so located in the Town of Cicero, Onondaga County, 25 New York bearing tax map number zero nine one point ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

The agency is considering an application from 16 Micron in connection with the development and 17 operation of the Micron Campus component of the 18 project. 19 As I stated, approximately one 20 thousand three hundred thirty-nine acres of the one 21 thousand three hundred seventy-seven acre proposed 22 Micron Campus will be located in the Park. The 23 agency now owns the entirety of the Park, including 24 the parcel bearing tax map number zero four six dash 25 zero two dash zero one point zero, which is the ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

Both the construction and 15 operation of the proposed Micron Campus will require 16 increased utility infrastructure. In connection with 17 this need, as I stated earlier, the County intends to 18 construct a new industrial wastewater treatment plant 19 at its Oak Orchard site. 20 The Micron Campus will also require a 21 new reclaimed water conveyance between its location 22 at the Park and the Oak Orchard site.

My name is John Russo, 15 and I'm here on behalf of S.S.O. Holdings, a family 16 member of the properties OCIDA is considering for 17 easement takings. Please include this verbal 18 submission in addition to the written and emailed 19 submission in the official E.D.P.L. hearing record. 20 Dear Mr. Petrovich and members of the 21 Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency, we are 22 respectfully asking OCIDA to not move forward with 23 the eminent domain because the agency has not met the 24 legal requirements under New York's Eminent Domain 25 Procedure Law and State Environmental Quality Review ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 15 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 Act, or SECQRA. 3 Before any property can be taken by 4 eminent domain, the law requires a full and fair 5 review of the potential environmental impacts. This 6 did not happen in this case. 7 The wastewater and reclaimed water 8 pipeline proposed across our property was listed as a 9 connected action to the Micron project. Yet, the 10 environmental analysis of that pipeline is 11 incomplete, segmented, and lacking detail. OCIDA's 12 own documents state that easements quote would not 13 change the current use end quote of our land. But 14 that statement overlooks the reality that a broad 15 easement like this reduces future development 16 potential, restricts how the land can be used, and 17 creates a meaningful long-term impacts. 18 Critically, the environmental review 19 also failed to consider the two natural spring-fed 20 ponds and associated wetlands on S.S.O.'s property 21 adjacent to the Oak Orchard Wastewater Treatment 22 Plant and the risk posed to those sensitive areas if 23 there were any leakage or spills from the proposed 24 wastewater conveyance pipe. In addition, the 25 analysis does not address what would happen in the ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 16 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 event of a catastrophic failure of this industrial 3 wastewater line, an essential issue for public 4 safety, environmental protection, and property 5 stewardship. 6 Because OCIDA has not taken the quote 7 hard look at these issues, its environmental findings 8 are incomplete and the law does not permit the agency 9 to proceed with eminent domain under these 10 circumstances. We are simply asking OCIDA to follow 11 the process that New York Law requires, one that 12 protects the environment, the community, and property 13 rights. 14 For these reasons, we respectfully 15 request that OCIDA decline to exercise eminent domain 16 on the S.S.O. properties at this time. Thank you. 17 MR. McNAMARA: Mr. Russo, this is not 18 normally going to be a question and answer. I do 19 have one question. You referenced the -- 20 MR. RUSSO: Yes. 21 MR. McNAMARA: -- email.

And 6 so, I know what it's like to be forced out of a home 7 that you didn't want to leave. I very much wanted to 8 stay where we were. We planned to stay there our 9 whole life. So, I understand how the King family 10 feels right now. 11 And it's difficult, especially when 12 you think that OCIDA and Onondaga County really, I 13 think, abused the eminent domain function. New York 14 State has -- has a reputation of the worst eminent 15 domain abuse in the country. So, I really think that 16 needs to be changed. Thank you. 17 MR.

I didn't 21 think I knew Mrs. King, but I just ran into her 22 daughter, who I went to school with. So, I do know 23 Mrs. King. And I'm in opposition to this idea that 24 you can sign a contract and unbeknownst to you, she 25 lived longer than you anticipated.

You can't sign a 5 contract and then say, oh, well, we need the land 6 now. We need the house now. You need to move. You 7 need to just stop doing this and honor your contract. 8 And even though I'm not her neighbor- 9 neighbor, I'm not her street-neighbor, I live on the 10 other side of town, I'm in the County of Onondaga, in 11 the Town of Clay, and this is just not right. And I 12 think you all know it's not right. 13 But you got Micron, you spent fifteen 14 minutes giving Micron his -- their advertisement of 15 how wonderful they're all going to be, but not for 16 Mrs. King. So, you need to honor that contract. And 17 even though I heard Ryan McMahon say he didn't sign 18 that contract, he wasn't part of that contract, that 19 doesn't matter. Also, I did sign that. So, that's 20 my two cents. Thank you. 21 MR. McNAMARA: Lorraine Demeter. 22 MS. DEMETER: Lorraine Demeter, D-E-M- 23 E-T-E-R, and I'm speaking for the -- my dear friend 24 Azalia King, or Butch King. Twenty years ago, the 25 County made an agreement with Glenn and Azalia King.

Page 20 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 The Kings would sell their property to the County, 3 and you would grant them lifetime use of the family 4 home and property. 5 The Kings kept their part of the 6 bargain. Now, someone more important than the King 7 says, come along and you want to renege on that 8 agreement and turn Mrs. King at ninety-one years old 9 out of the home she has known for more than fifty 10 years. Lucky you, Glenn King has passed away, one 11 down, one to go. 12 Your more important client has now 13 redirected the money meant for Onondaga County to 14 Idaho and put a two to three-year wait on the New 15 York State project.

OCIDA now wants to renege on that 3 contract. 4 If this is how OCIDA conducts business 5 on a small scale, because this is relatively small 6 compared to the whole project, how can the people of 7 Clay, Cicero, and Onondaga County trust them to be 8 honest and have integrity on a hundred billion dollar 9 project?

Page 22 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 was the Director of Economic Development for Onondaga 3 County, a job that included acting as staff to the 4 county I.D.A. In that capacity, I arranged for the 5 acquisition of land for the new industrial apartment 6 in the Town of Clay. As part of that work, I met 7 with Azalia and Glenn King in the kitchen of their 8 house in Caughdenoy Road to discuss acquisition of 9 their two properties. 10 Prior to meeting with Mr. and Mrs. 11 King, the agency had purchased properties to the 12 north and south of their land. The first of these 13 purchases was completed in November of 1999. 14 Acquisition of the two King parcels, totaling forty- 15 seven acres, including the residence, was essential 16 for the agency to achieve the continuous ownership to 17 a two hundred and fifty-one acre area along 18 Caughdenoy Road and Route 31. 19 The purpose of the acquisitions was to 20 establish control of a large, vacant industrial zone 21 site that could participate in the State's semi-New 22 York chip fab site development program and enable the 23 County to compete on the national market for major 24 business investments. This site was then named the 25 Clay Business Park. ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 23 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 Negotiation of the terms of 3 acquisition of the King properties included the right 4 of occupancy by Mr. and Mrs. King. Adjacent to the 5 parcel with their residence was this three acre 6 parcel whose owner had no desire to discuss a sale. 7 This parcel had a depth of three hundred and fifty- 8 two feet. 9 The assumption was that if a 10 significant development project occurred, the portion 11 of the king parcel equal in depth to that adjacent 12 parcel would be reserved for the residence, leaving 13 it in place as a pre-existing use and preserving the 14 right of occupancy. 15 However, the adjacent three acre 16 parcel was acquired by the agency in 2021, and a 17 house on it was demolished. With these changes and a 18 scope and magnitude of the Micron project, that 19 strategy for preservation -- preservation is no 20 longer possible. 21 There's been no lack of clarity or 22 transparency as to the current goal of the agency 23 regarding its land acquisitions in Clay to a large 24 site that could compete in the national -- 25 international site selection market for a very large ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

Disrupting the settled life of an 16 elderly person is difficult, painful, unkind, and a 17 project that could leave the existing residents 18 undisturbed would be my preference. That is not 19 possible. 20 I think it's fortunate the arrangement 21 lasted twenty years. And I hope that in a suitable 22 new residence, Mrs. King will have many more years. 23 To make this possible, the offer of just compensation 24 should be sufficient for acquisition of an acceptable 25 residence for Mrs. King.

In addition to 10 twenty-two billion in subsidies from the state and 11 federal agency, and it says, the taxpayers will pay 12 for about half of the estimated fifty-one and a half 13 billion dollar cost to build two factories. And two 14 is only the beginning. Okay. Then there's supposed 15 to be two more. 16 So, now -- okay. So, you sold to 17 Micron, it's a little confusing to me. But anyway, 18 the original ones are going to be -- eight hundred 19 twenty acres are going to be apparently built and I 20 don't know what you're going to do with the rest of 21 them.

We get back to the secret 4 forum and the extensive twenty thousand pages that 5 was done in environmental assessment, okay? I'm -- 6 I'm wondering if -- if that is going to -- if that 7 costs the same number of trees that you're going to 8 have to cut down to -- to build this project. 9 But -- but Micron still needs approval 10 of the US.. Department of Commerce. And plans to 11 start work in December. No, and it has to hurry up, 12 and we have to hurry up and do this because we have 13 to cut down all of those five hundred acres of trees. 14 You have to get them cut down before March. Before 15 March, when the bats come back, who’ve been coming 16 back for ages and ages and ages. And probably coming 17 back longer than anybody's lived there. So, we 18 better hurry up and cut down those trees and we 19 better hurry up and kick Mrs. King out of her 20 property and all the other people off the property. 21 We better hurry up and do that so that we can benefit 22 from our tax breaks. 23 We still need a variety of agencies, 24 okay, a variety of agencies.

I'm sure 3 you're going to get all the approval from all the 4 agencies that you need, because you already have. 5 And -- and the same thing happened 6 with the Amazon warehouse. There -- they had to get 7 a -- a variance from the building and safety codes, 8 okay, which required fire escapes, two hundred and 9 fifty feet. But their code was only four hundred 10 feet. 11 Uh-oh, so they needed a variance. Oh, 12 dear. So, they did the same thing, mitigate -- the 13 old mitigation routine. So, also what -- basically, 14 what they came back and said, well, hardship. We'll 15 give you a variance because you can demonstrate a 16 hardship. A hardship for Amazon, okay? 17 And the hardship for Amazon was 18 spending what they said was I think thirty million 19 dollars to build four additional fire escapes. That 20 was a hardship for Amazon. And so, they were granted 21 a building and safety code variance. 22 And I think we're probably going to 23 say the same thing with this building here.

A multi-billion dollar company, a multi- 3 billion dollar company can't afford to do this, and 4 they need all these tax breaks. 5 So, yeah -- yeah, I -- I live here in 6 the Town of Clay. I lived here just about all my 7 life. And you're making this a sacrifice zone, okay. 8 A sacrifice zone, and not just for Mrs. King and the 9 other people who've lived here most of their lives 10 and love this area. 11 A sacrifice zone for -- you talk about 12 construction jobs? The first jobs here that are 13 going to be here are going to -- destruction jobs, 14 destruction because you're have to destroy all of 15 that land.

So, they're going to be destruction jobs 18 before you can start construction. 19 And I -- it's -- it's taken you, what, 20 eight years or something since you first decided you 21 were going to do this? And you can't wait a few 22 years longer? Why is that? Why is that? 23 Why can't you give this woman a little 24 bit longer to live in the home -- the home that she 25 loved?

I am a past 10 supervisor and town councilor in the Town of Cicero. 11 I am a licensed New York State Realtor for the last 12 thirty-three years. 13 I've also retired from G.E. heavy 14 military, so I've worked with multiple contracts 15 through real estate and through the federal and state 16 government. Never in my life have I ever heard of a 17 binding contract by both parties being broken or one 18 side pushing someone else out for the benefit of 19 themselves for greed and power. 20 I have a written statement that I've 21 probably written forty times. I said, I don't 22 understand why if OCIDA already owns this property, 23 what the hurry is, as has already been mentioned, to 24 relocate Mrs. King? There is several things to start 25 with. We don't have the roads to accommodate. ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

We don't have the power to accommodate. 4 We don't have the sewer to accommodate, nor do we 5 have all the permits in place. We spoke about the 6 wetlands. Are they going to bring Noah’s Ark in here 7 and move all these animals to a new location, or are 8 they just going to plow them under, which is 9 horrific. To move wetlands across the river over 10 into Oswego County is unnecessary. 11 And by the way, those bats, as she 12 spoke of, it's true. But when those bats come back 13 to house in their trees and they're gone, they're 14 going to be in your trees and your house if you live 15 in the Town of Cicero and Clay. I can speak to that 16 from authority because it happened to me. 17 So, I say, this is the performance of 18 our Onondaga County and local government is shoddy, 19 second rate, despicable and an unacceptable 20 performance by our honor, Government County Executive 21 Ryan McMahon and OCIDA and IDA, which is Industrial 22 Development Association. This behavior is 23 unacceptable, because they are lying, bullying, it's 24 a betrayal and its cruelty to Mrs. King. 25 Their word means nothing.

No offense, I'm 10 sorry, but no offense to Mrs. King or all the rest of 11 us, but God blessed us to live this long. 12 I'd like to ask OCIDA to put this 13 binding contract in place and be here along with our 14 county executive, which I was hoping was going to be 15 here because I'd to speak to them personally, and 16 just discuss why the importance of throwing Mrs. King 17 out when all they're going to do is bring a load of 18 dirt, bring their gold shovels, and throw the dirt 19 over their heads maybe, just to say they broke 20 ground. We all know that this is going to be pushed 21 out and pushed out. 22 Also, it's obvious that OCIDA and any 23 other government department along with the county 24 executive can change the rules to support nothing but 25 their power and greed.

McNAMARA: Dave Arnold. 9 MR. ARNOLD: David Arnold. I live at 10 9411 Horseshoe Island Road, Clay, New York. I have a 11 farm at 8598 Oswego Road, Route 57. I've lived in 12 this town all my life. I'm a farmer. I'm the 13 president of (unintelligible-loud clapping) 14 Incorporated. I've attended the town board meetings 15 here since 1998 for ten years straight. I listened to 16 all the bullshit that this town has put forth. I’m 17 sick and tired of it. 18 Now I'm not going to go through 19 everything that everyone else has already addressed. 20 I second everything that everyone else has said. But 21 I would want to put in the record my Facebook 22 account, David Arnold. I have written on Micron, I 23 have written on the Town of Clay for the last, oh, I 24 don't know, since Facebook has been around. And I 25 would like every single thing that I've written on ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

And it's a lot, 3 I’ll tell you. 4 Now I knew Glenn King back in 2005 5 when he was in discussions with OCIDA on buying his 6 farm. He did not want to sell, but they pretty much 7 told him he had to. Now I'm grateful that the former 8 director of OCIDA is here and gave his two cents 9 worth. I addressed the problem with him at Three 10 Rivers when they wanted to buy the apartments at 11 Three Rivers. And I listened to three hours of crap 12 at that hearing of people in favor of throwing 13 somebody off their property. Yeah, three hours. 14 And one person spoke and told the 15 truth, and that was me in front of that Supreme Court 16 Justice. And I just said the truth. I just stated 17 the obvious. And after three hours of listening to 18 the crap from these people that wanted to get rid of 19 this apartment, and the same thing is going to happen 20 to the Kings, trust me. This is exactly what's going 21 to happen to the Kings. The Supreme Court Justice 22 ruled against the town to take the property saying 23 that it's against the law, you can't do this. But 24 you know what happened? The very next day, the town 25 bought the property for what the people wanted in the ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

We're going to probably go before the Supreme 5 Court and the Supreme Court is going to rule against 6 you. And then you're going to go up to the Kings and 7 you're going to say, okay, what -- what do we got to 8 do to settle this thing? Because we're going to get 9 you property, trust me, we're going to get it. If we 10 have to go in there with a dozer and you're still in 11 there, we're going to doze it. This is what's going 12 to happen. 13 So, I'm just warning everybody, we're 14 -- we're going to go through with this. And I 15 guarantee you the Supreme Court Justice will rule in 16 favor of the people because the people are right in 17 this case, just as they were right at Three Rivers. 18 And look what -- at Three Rivers, we 19 could have had a ton of apartments at Three Rivers 20 right now. But what do we have instead? We have a 21 park. A beautiful park that everybody can enjoy 22 because the Supreme Court Justice ruled in favor of 23 the people, not you. 24 You don't care about the people. You 25 just care about hundred billion dollars. So, what I ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

It's 4 absolutely insidious that you would even consider 5 tossing a ninety-one-year-old woman out of the only 6 home that she's known for sixty years. 7 Second -- third, the treatment plant 8 expansion.

They can’t just come walk right on in, say 9 thank you very much for paying your taxes, but we're 10 taking it.

Hit our county 15 legislators, hit everybody we can hit to get to New 16 York State and get a real eminent domain law that is 17 for public youth, not millionaires and billionaires 18 coming in and destroying the only place that people 19 ever knew.

I'm a licensed 5 clinical social worker. Before you assume that I'm a 6 bleeding heart liberal, please, you need to know that 7 I'm also a thirty-year Air Force veteran. I have 8 sworn to defend and support the Constitution of the 9 United States. 10 On this, I'm up here to speak on 11 behalf of my friend's family and the late -- the last 12 person that just spoke who may also get run over by 13 eminent domain. New York makes it very hard to 14 defend the rights of condemnees. Condemnees? Is 15 that how you say that word? Anyway, the people who 16 are getting run over. 17 It will be easy for you to prove 18 public use. New York has a very broad definition of 19 that. But why this property and why right now? I 20 want to know that and I have not heard that. 21 Granted, I have not read all the documents, but I 22 don't think that it needs to be a rush.

Will all those promises really 5 materialize to benefit the local people? 6 As stated in previous news stories, 7 taxpayers are covering more than half the bill. Why 8 should our tax money cover private industry that 9 includes elder abuse? Elder abuse, I say that 10 because it's due to the forced eviction, harassment, 11 bullying, and stress created by this proceeding and 12 previous issues going back twenty-five years. 13 Our elders, the property, and the 14 lives they've worked for should not be disposable. 15 Our elders deserve our respect and honor. Our own 16 Constitution protects these inalienable rights. 17 Current county officials who are apparently not even 18 here personally may not have signed this contract, 19 but the predecessors of the agency they represent 20 did. 21 The County Executive's comment that he 22 didn't sign the deal is a total abdication of his 23 responsibility of that office.

There was also another related 5 family parcel. That house got taken away. 6 There was a -- they was -- they 7 settled with the family in court. The house was 8 bulldozed over twenty years ago and absolutely 9 nothing had ever happened on that property until 10 recent. Basically, an apartment lot for them to go 11 investigate the woods. 12 I'm aware of the other properties up 13 in Onondaga -- Oswego County also that are being 14 purchased basically for, you know, to have the swamp 15 issues that we have to keep, which is good for the 16 environment that way. But we're destroying that 17 whole area in the woods. 18 I don't know why they have to push 19 Mrs. King out of there right now. Just doesn't 20 really make sense that, you know, the -- the -- the 21 project is getting postponed for a couple of years. 22 Why is this so important at this point? 23 You know, also like everybody's saying 24 you don't have all the proper representation here, so 25 the proper -- so people should actually be here to, ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

If there's going to be more eminent domain 10 coming, can we at least see these properties to know 11 which ones they're potentially going to be? 12 Micron hasn't purchased anything. 13 It's all the county at this point. A lot of money 14 getting, you know, on hold. We don't really know 15 what's going to happen.

Do 19 we want to keep it for our family? Do we want to 20 sell this property? Will it be taken in the 21 proceedings of what we decide to do? 22 So, we would like a little more 23 clarity on some of the other properties that are 24 proposed that maybe be used up for utility purposes. 25 I don't want to see this project happen at all.

And right 13 now, I mean, it's a little beyond the eminent domain 14 park.

Just like everybody else has said I 6 don't want to repeat, but I would like to know why, 7 right now, they have to take the acreage from Mrs. 8 King as there's plenty of other things to do with all 9 of the acreage around it, up and down the road and 10 all around the sides. 11 Another side note, just a little bit 12 more emotional, the Kings were already asked to leave 13 their home. Back in the '60s, they lived on the 14 corner of Verplank and Caughdenoy. They had a 15 beautiful farm there, but Niagara Mohawk asked them 16 to move because they didn't say anything about 17 eminent domain, I was pretty young. I don't really 18 remember. But they moved up the road and now she's 19 asked to move again. Another thing I don't think 20 people realize is that it's not always the money that 21 people need to move. 22 Sometimes when you move a ninety-year- 23 old, their head does not fathom that very well. You 24 put them in a different place and they're not the 25 same anymore. They cannot collect their thoughts.

McNAMARA: Yeah. Any -- anyone 17 else who wants to speak will be able to come up now 18 too. But I just wanted to finish the list. So, 19 let's -- let's start. Is there anybody who did not 20 put their name down on the list who'd like to speak? 21 MR. WHITMER: Oh, perfect. Thanks. 22 MR. McNAMARA: This gentleman here 23 first. 24 MR. WHITMER: Oh, thank you.

Do you need me to spell 4 my name? 5 COURT REPORTER: I do. 6 MR. WHITMER: D-U -- D-U-A-N-E, 7 Whitmer, W-H-I-T-M-E-R. Thank you guys for coming. 8 It's good to see turnout. I came here from Buffalo 9 to -- to record what's happening so people can know 10 what's going on. 11 And I want to really explain to you 12 guys what's really happening here is your -- your 13 leaders and politicians are weak, cowardly people who 14 can't be bothered to show up and look you guys in the 15 face when you’re sitting here. 16 If you analyze what's going on in this 17 area, you're seeing businesses leave, homelessness 18 increase, poverty increase. New York State is the 19 least business friendly state in the nation. So, 20 what your politicians do is they whore themselves out 21 to businesses. 22 They offer them something called 23 corporate welfare and tax subsidies and tax breaks. 24 What that does is allows them to get photo ops in 25 front of work being done. They say, look, we brought ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

We sold our soul to this business 3 that came here and it boosts your economy for a short 4 term. 5 Your -- soon he will mentioned that's 6 what they're going to do. They're going to bring 7 environment opportunities, business, jobs, that's 8 what they're going to do. For a very short term 9 that's what happens. 10 And what places like Micron do is 11 after the subsidies run out after the money goes 12 away, they leave for the next opportunity. This 13 happens all over New York. This happens everywhere 14 we go and we see this all the time. 15 You guys are being used because as 16 your County Executive mentions, Ryan McMahon, he 17 didn't sign the contract, we know because soon after 18 he touts this great thing he is doing, he's going to 19 run for another position. He's using this to propel 20 his career forward. 21 And they appoint weak willed people 22 who can't be bothered to show up to do their bidding. 23 That's why we're here. You guys have the balls to 24 show up. They do not. It's simple as that. 25 It's also why they do things like hold ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

They want 3 people to be at work to be able to pay their bills. 4 They don't have a -- a nice government funded job 5 that they can come and sit in these seats. 6 I will say this though, I'm going to 7 segue into extremism, anger, hatred, rage. We talked 8 about -- we see rising political violence, rising 9 tension all across the country. We wonder why it 10 happens and people want to blame the internet, they 11 want to blame music, they want to blame video games. 12 So, why are these things happening? 13 Well, what radicalized people like me 14 was seeing a ninety-one-year-old woman pulled from 15 her house so Micron can come in and pretend to give a 16 shit. 17 So, I want to say, I'm going to end 18 with this, is that Marvin Heemeyer may be dead, one 19 of my heroes from Granby, Colorado. But I do hope 20 his spirit lives on in Clay, New York and I hope you 21 guys keep up the good fight and we're here to support 22 you any way we can. Thank you, guys. 23 MR. McNAMARA: Is there anyone else 24 who would like to speak? Please come up. 25 MR. HUGHES: Yes.

McNAMARA: All right. 3 MR. HUGHES: All right. I guess I'll 4 go first. My name is Don Hughes. 5 MR. McNAMARA: Hi. 6 MR. HUGHES: Hello. My name is Don 7 Hughes. I live in the City of Syracuse. I've been 8 there since 1985 and -- you can go next. Okay. And 9 I'm here to speak in opposition to OCIDA's move to 10 condemn the property of Azalia King. 11 This action is unnecessary, uncalled, 12 for and cruel. And I'm very disappointed that the 13 whole Board of OCIDA is not here, although I did 14 notice that Mr. Petrovich is in the back. 15 Mrs. King has lived in this said 16 property for sixty years. The county and this agency 17 signed a deal with her and her husband twenty-five 18 years ago or so to live out the rest of their lives 19 in their house. OCIDA is now moving to evict her in 20 violation of that agreement. 21 Not satisfied with that legal action, 22 which they'll probably lose in court, the agency is 23 claiming a need to condemn the property and forcibly 24 remove her, a ninety-one-year-old widow, from her 25 house. You've heard the testimony about that. ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 65 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 This is outrageous, and frankly it's 3 cruel. It's also unnecessary. The construction 4 schedule for Micron has been pushed back two years. 5 Why are we doing this now? What's the rush? You've 6 got thirteen hundred and seventy-seven acres at White 7 Pine Commerce Park to work with; surely Micron's 8 consultants and engineers can figure out a way to 9 work around this little property. 10 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: That's right. 11 MR. HUGHES: I would understand if it 12 was sitting in the middle of the property. It's on 13 the edge of the property, work around it, guys. 14 A few weeks ago, I stood right here 15 offering testimony about the tax, the tax subsidies 16 and I told you that I supported the overall project. 17 That support has disappeared. 18 Now that I see how OCIDA is treating a 19 ninety-one-year-old lady who happens to live in the 20 margin of the property and is kicking her out 21 forcibly, that support has disappeared. I am 22 profoundly disappointed at OCIDA's lack of integrity, 23 lack of moral compass, all in the pursuit of serving 24 the needs of a giant and greedy corporation. I 25 invite everyone here to oppose this. Thank you. ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 66 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 MR. McNAMARA: Thank you Mr. Hughes. 3 What's your name. 4 MS. SKYE: My name is Nancy Skye and 5 that's spelled N-A-N-C-Y, S-K-Y-E. I hold permanent 6 certification to work with blind and visually 7 impaired and I have worked with elderly for three 8 decades. And I too stand with Azalia King to be able 9 to remain in her home. 10 When a promise is broken, when a word 11 is not kept, this shows a tremendous lack of 12 integrity. To remove Azalia King from her home, to 13 forcibly remove a ninety-one-year-old woman from her 14 home would be physically, psychologically and 15 emotionally damaging to this human being. 16 So, I too, second what the others have 17 said. Wonderful things have been said in this room. 18 Thank you. I stood by both my parents so that they 19 could have caregiving in their home as they aged 20 because that was their wish, and it would be my wish 21 too to be able to stay in my home to have the proper 22 care as long as is needed. 23 And she deserves that. She deserves 24 to have that. A mother, a grandmother, a great- 25 grandmother.

Not one. 5 Thank you. 6 MS. ALLARD: Hi everyone. My name is 7 Gunnery Sergeant Alex Allard. I'm a combat decorated 8 retired Marine. I own a company in Boston and now in 9 Brewerton. 10 MR. McNAMARA: Can you please spell 11 your name? 12 MS. ALLARD: Sure. A-L-E-X, A-L-L-A- 13 R-D. 14 MR. McNAMARA: Could you do it one 15 more time because I didn't hear that. 16 MS. ALLARD: Okay. So, just want to 17 reiterate. I'm a little bit of a P.T.S.D. Marine. 18 I've been shot. I've been stabbed. I got a combat 19 medal from the President. So, I talk fast, 20 especially when I'm pissed and right now, I'm real 21 pissed. A-L-E-X A-L-L-A-R-D. 22 So, to be clear, I just started my 23 A.I. Integration Agency in Brewerton, and when I 24 heard about this, my heart broke. Where I'm from, we 25 call this elder abuse. Eminent domain is for public ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

You make deals that you 5 break. You bullied ninety-one-year-old ladies. 6 Listen, I swore an oath and I promise you on my 7 stripes, my word means something. 8 I swore to defend Americans against 9 all enemies, foreign and domestic. And when you 10 switch the law to bully ninety-one-year-old ladies, 11 you are bordering on that line between domestic. And 12 I have hundreds of Marines -- where I'm from, you 13 might get away with this in, no offense, small town 14 New York, but the city's here now. 15 MR. McNAMARA: Is there anyone else 16 who would like to speak? 17 MR. GRECCO: This is really something. 18 My name is Michael Grecco. I represent the 19 neighborhood group at Country Meadows and I am really 20 happy everyone voicing their opinion today. You took 21 everything out of my mouth that I wanted to say. I 22 mean, it's really great. 23 But I just want to say one thing. I 24 mentioned in one of these hearings before about 25 Micron and Mr. County Executive Mr. McMahon, said ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 69 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 that everyone who wrote down and voiced their opinion 3 would get a written response about our particular 4 problem. 5 My name was posted in syracuse.com 6 with the transportation problem here, and I never 7 received the response at all. Like, we're all 8 wasting our time with Micron and all these issues 9 because you know what's going to happen? Nothing. 10 You'll do what you want to go do. They don't care 11 about the people. You don't care about the 12 complaints and everyone -- and all the people at this 13 last hearing, you all look at me with a deer in the 14 headlight look. No one responded. No one said 15 anything and Mr. McMahon said on TV, you'll get a 16 response in writing about your issues. 17 This is why this is a waste of time. 18 This county, this town you can't even run a road 19 construction project correctly. You come out, you 20 look at the road and then you come to put up a 21 traffic light and then you put up a pump house, you 22 block both ends and the fire department had to come 23 by and tell you you're blocking the people in. 24 You put the railroad track here, you 25 put the pump station there, and what happens? You ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

I mean, how is a town going to run a 3 plant of this size and this project when you can't 4 handle the normal problems of this community? 5 I really have a problem. I came from 6 Manlius, and thought -- I thought I had a problem up 7 there. And I came here because I want to get away 8 from the traffic, wow, what a mistake. 9 MR. McNAMARA: Thank you. Next? 10 MR. LUCE: I'm a repeat. J-A-N-I-S L- 11 U-C-E. 12 MR. McNAMARA: Well, just one second 13 before you repeat. Is there anybody else who's 14 wanting to come up and -- 15 MR. LUCE: There's just one lady left 16 -- well, okay. 17 MR. McNAMARA: You can -- you can come 18 back at the end. 19 MR. LUCE: One -- one minute. 20 MR. McNAMARA: Go ahead. Quick. 21 MR. LUCE: Okay. This reminds me of 22 something back -- talking about kicking old ladies 23 out of their house. Over on Cicero Route 11 when 24 they built the Walmart, remember where it was the -- 25 the north tribe and right out along the edge, you ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

She fought and she 4 won and she died in that house. And Walmart came in 5 and built all the way around her, and there sat her 6 little house. 7 MR. McNAMARA: Thank you. Next? 8 MS.

I am from Faith Impact Team, 10 which is a diverse group of concerned citizens from 11 churches, nonprofits and businesses formed to help 12 shape our community's growth in Central New York. I 13 am also a retired Lutheran pastor and often attend 14 Immanuel Church, of which Butch is a member. 15 I am here to urge you, elected 16 officials, to find a compassionate solution in this 17 eminent domain case. There is pressure to smooth 18 away from Micron construction, but the residents of 19 Clay, as obviously expressed today, need to trust 20 their elected officials. 21 A promise was made to a couple who 22 lived, worked, and raised their family in the Town of 23 Clay as you present this community in your public 24 face. And the people who are long term residents 25 live that way, caring for each other.

People want to 8 live in a community, newcomers as well, that cares 9 for each other. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the Town 10 stopped this case? Thank you. 11 MR. PARKHURST: Hi, my name is Geoff 12 Parkhurst. G-E-O-F-F P-A-R-K-H-U-R-S-T. I'm not 13 here to represent Mrs. King. I know her, she's a 14 wonderful person. I'm here to represent myself as a 15 citizen. I too spent a career in the military, and I 16 learned to trust my government. I learned to trust 17 my government. 18 So, for me watching this, I see this 19 as a question of trust. I found it disappointing 20 that this gentleman who coordinated the agreement 21 twenty years later calls it unfortunate that the 22 County can't keep its agreement. 23 And I heard you mention that the Kings 24 have been offered the appraised value or above the 25 appraised value. So, my simple rhetorical question ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 73 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 for the county is, what's the appraised value of any 3 commitment they make with any other citizen because 4 it doesn't sound like it's very much. 5 MR. McNAMARA: Go ahead. 6 MS. OSBOURNE: Is it on? 7 MR. McNAMARA: Yes. 8 MS. OSBOURNE: Okay. My name is 9 Arlene Diello Osborne, O-S-B-O-R-N-E. I've been a 10 resident of the Town of Clay for most of my life 11 living on Verplank Road as a child and now on 12 Caughdenoy Road. This has been like an amazing 13 meeting to come to. 14 I've been to many, which I'll get to, 15 but to hear the names of -- of residents who have 16 been there their whole life tells you this is a 17 community where people stayed and raised families. 18 The King family was a central part of my childhood 19 and of many of the people sitting here, as are the 20 Eagan's, the Sabourin's, the Hughes, you know, the 21 names go on and on. So, thank you all for being 22 here. 23 I -- I wanted to start as I was 24 sitting here, I was thinking back to the meetings 25 that I've attended since the beginning and one of the ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 74 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 first meetings I went, it might have been the first 3 one, was at, I believe, North Syracuse, the 4 Auditorium. 5 And there was a panel, and people 6 could come and ask questions, walk up to the mic. 7 Brian McMahon was there, all kinds of representatives 8 from Micron. And my question to him was, I, you 9 know, at the time, I guess naively maybe, I said, you 10 know, I understand the impact to the county -- the 11 positive impact to the county. 12 But there have been casualties. At 13 the time, it was residents of Burnett Road. And I 14 asked, you know, moving forward in a project this 15 large, there were likely to be other casualties. And 16 I said, you know, I had hoped -- my question to him 17 was, will you take care of these families, these 18 people, these casualties? 19 And his response to me at the time, he 20 kind of chuckled and he said, I believe, let me find 21 my words, I believe if you spoke to any of the 22 families on Burnett Road, they would all agree that 23 they were compensated quite fairly for what they were 24 going through. And -- and that was the end of his 25 response to me. Hindsight, as we're dealing with ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc. Page 75 1 11/20/25 - Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing, LLC 2 what's happening now, it's really disheartening to 3 hear all of this. 4 Again, at that meeting sat so many 5 representatives of Micron, county executives, and 6 they were selling this project to the community, 7 selling it to us, all the positive things that were 8 going to happen. Where are they now? They're not 9 here. 10 It was great when they were trying to 11 sell it to us. Now that they're almost there, they 12 don't care what's happening to these casualties. 13 This project may be beneficial to the county, but it 14 will be anything but beneficial to the residents of 15 the Town of Clay who are right here in the midst of 16 all of this. 17 It's really disheartening, Mr. 18 McMahon, if you're listening, that you're not sitting 19 here listening to these stories and -- and the 20 impacts that it's going to have to the county 21 residents. 22 I came to the meeting a couple weeks 23 ago about the tax meeting, and I am a retired teacher 24 from North Syracuse and the fact that Micron will not 25 be paying taxes for, what is it now, fifty years? ARII@courtsteno.com www.courtsteno.com 800.523.7887 11-20-2025, Public Statement Hearing Associated Reporters Int'l., Inc.

Thank you. 7 MR. McNAMARA: Thank you. Is there 8 anyone else who would like to speak? Sir? 9 MR. STINSON: I'm Ed Stinson, S-T-I-N- 10 S-O-N. I'm also a veteran. And I also work with 11 Mrs. King at the Cicero Post Office. I find it very 12 hard to believe that you guys are going to renege on 13 your contract with Mrs. King. 14 She's a good person and the malls 15 around the area, they took their tax benefits and 16 then they closed. Shoppingtown, Penn Can, Great 17 Northern, they all took it, and then they left. So, 18 I just want you to stand up for Mrs. King and respect 19 the contract that you already signed. Thank you. 20 MS. MATTHEWS: Can I go now? 21 MR. McNAMARA: Yes, ma'am. 22 MS. MATTHEWS: Good morning. Maureen 23 Matthews, M-A-U-R-E-E-N M-A-T-T-H-E-W-S.

I am only in my 7 sixties, and it has been difficult for me to have 8 made the move. I can't imagine what it would be for 9 Mrs. King. 10 And I knew her from the Post Office 11 and I went to kindergarten with her son. I know the 12 family. So, I'm here to support Mrs. King. 13 MR.

DAUSMAN: Thomas Dausman, D-A-U-S- 20 M-A-N. I just wondered why, I don't know this is 21 just a suggestion to me, but why wouldn't Micron want 22 to build up in Oswego?

Who's going to pay for all 4 the power that you're going to change? We're already 5 starting to pay for that. 6 But you know, you don't realize how 7 much damage this place is going to do. Really. You 8 don't know what they're going to put out. You run 9 water, that much water through a pipeline, you're 10 going to have problems with the pipeline. Water does 11 wear out a pipe. 12 I worked for Solvay Paperboard, you 13 know, and the pipes blow up and everything because 14 you're running water through them so fast. I said -- 15 it just doesn't make sense to me why -- just put it 16 up in Oswego. 17 MR. McNAMARA: Thank you, sir. 18 MR. DAUSMAN: Yeah. 19 MR. McNAMARA: Is there anyone else? 20 MR.

And now 5 you're telling me -- now you're telling me that a 6 contract's no good. I worked in construction for 7 forty-five years, and if you signed a contract that 8 you were going to do something, you had to do it. 9 And now -- now you want to throw it out the window. 10 This old lady should not be moved. 11 I live on Caughdenoy Road, and it's a 12 good thing you're not trying to take my property 13 because I believe in the Second Amendment. I would 14 die with my cold dead hands inside my house. You 15 would not get it. So, you can take your eminent 16 domain and stick it where the sun don't shine. 17 MR.

Executive Director Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency 335 Montgomery Street. Second Floor Syracuse, New York 13202 Re: Micron Project Eminent Domain Procedure Law Hearing Dear Mr. Petrovich and Members of the Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency ("OCIDA"): This firm represents SSO Holdings, LLC. the owner of certain real property located in the Town of Clay and commonly known as Tax Map Nos.: 031.-01-16.1 and 030.-01-01.0 (collectively the —SSO Properties"). and we respectfully submit this letter in opposition to OCIDA's contemplated use of the power of eminent domain to acquire easement interests in the SSO Properties for the construction of an industrial wastewater line in connection with the proposed redevelopment of the White Pine Commerce Park with a dynamic random access memory semiconductor manufacturing facility and associated improvements (the "Project") by Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing LLC ("Micron"). As set forth below, OCIDA lacks authority to condemn any interests in the SSO Properties because it has failed to comply w ith the applicable processes and standards necessary to do so. As OCIDA is undoubtedly aware. it can only exercise its power of eminent domain if: (1) it comports with the state and federal constitution; (2) it has the proper statutory jurisdiction or authority: (3) it complies with the requirements of the Eminent Domain Procedure Law ("EDPL") and the State Environmental Quality Review Act ("SEQRA"); and (4) a public use, benefit or purpose will be served by the proposed acquisition (see generally EDPL § 207; Matter of Bowers Dev. LLC v Oneida County Industrial Der. Agency. 40 NY3d 1061, 1063 [2023]; Matter of City of New York [Grand Lafayette Props.. LLC], 6 NY3d 540. 546 [2006]). Here, OCIDA's proposed CCM EXHIBIT (CM Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency November 19, 2025 Page 2 acquisition of easement interests in the SSO Properties by eminent domain fails the third prong of this test; specifically, OCIDA has not complied with the "hard look" SEQRA standard by, among other things, improperly deferring and/or segmenting its consideration of important potential significant environmental impacts associated with the proposed taking.' To comply with SEQRA, OCIDA must "identifly] the relevant areas of environmental concern, [take] a hard look at them, and [make] a reasoned elaboration of the basis for its determination (Matter of Boise v City of Plattsburgh, 219 AD3d 1050, 1055 [3d Dep't 2023] quoting Matter of Riverkeeper, Inc. v Planning Bd of Town of Southeast, 9 NY3d 219, 231-32 [2007]). An agency does not satisfy these requirements if it, among other things, fails to require the preparation of a required environmental impact statement ("EIS") or other necessary documents (Matter of Bd of Co-operative Educ. Svcs. Of Albany-Schoharie-Schenectady- Saratoga Counties v Town ofColonie, 268 AD2d 838, 839-40 [3d Dep't 2000]), improperly defers consideration of environmental impacts (Boise, 219 AD3d at 1057), or otherwise fails to consider all the potential adverse environmental impacts of all elements of a proposed project at once, a procedure known as impermissible segmentation (Matter of J. Owens Bldg. Co. v Town of Clarkstown, 128 AD3d 1067, 1068-69 [2d Dep't 2015] compare Matter of Evans v City of Saratoga Springs, 202 AD3d 1318, 1322 [3d Dep't 2022]; with Matter of PSC, LLC v City of Albany Industrial Dev. Agency, 200 AD3d 1282, 1288-89 [3d Dep't 2021]; Matter of GM Components Holdings, LLC v Town of Lockport Industrial Dev. Agency, 112 AD3d 1351, 1353 [4th Dep't 2013]). Here, OCIDA required the preparation of an EIS, but that document, even in its final form, fails to take the requisite "hard look" at the potential significant environmental impacts associated with the Project's proposed taking of the SSO Properties, and, therefore, results in corresponding infirmities in the recently-adopted Findings Statement. The proposed taking is part of the anticipated construction of a new industrial wastewater and reclaimed water conveyance system that will service the main Micron Campus. In that regard, it is not part of the "Proposed Project," as that term is defined in the FEIS and/or Findings Statement, but rather is designated as a "Connected Action." This is an important distinction because, while the FEIS and Findings Statement contain detailed analysis of the environmental impacts anticipated for the Project, their analysis of the environmental impacts anticipated from the Connected Actions is conclusory, and lacking in critical detail. For example, OCIDA seems content to state that the proposed acquisition of easements over the SSO Properties "would not change the current use of the properties outside of the easement area" (emphasis added). But that statement, on its face, does not acknowledge that the taking of broad easement rights over the SSO Properties will necessarily affect the future use of the remaining fee interests, including without limitation, by decreasing overall developability. I SSO also adopts and incorporates by reference any other objection raised by any other interested party to OCIDA's exercise of eminent domain in connection with the Micron Project. Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency November 19, 2025 Page 3 OCIDA's SEQRA review process also appears to fail to consider what would happen to the remaining portions of the SSO Properties if there were a catastrophic failure of the industrial wastewater/reclaimed water line. Without analyzing these issues, OCIDA has not taken a "hard look" at the potential environmental impacts from the proposed taking of the SSO Properties. Based on the foregoing, SSO respectfully relltilititit ObbA age to eateitiejgb power of eminent domain to take easement interests the §46 *Wittig.

(via electronic mail) 4901-83544723, EXHIBIT 2 Jean Marie Gildemeyer-Russo 8824 Henry Clay Blvd Clay, NY 13041 jeanmrussoegmailcom Date: 11/19/25 To: Robert Petrovich Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency (OCIDA) 335 Montgomery Street Syracuse, NY 13202 Re: Objections to Proposed Taking ofEasements Over Tax Map Nos. 031.-01-16.1 and 030.-01-01.0 for Micron-Related Wastewater Conveyance Line Dear Members of the Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency: I am a resident of Onondaga County and a member of the community impacted by the proposed Micron project and the infrastructure being advanced to support it. I submit this letter as an individual citizen to formally object to OCIDA's proposed use of eminent domain to acquire easement interests over Tax Map Nos. 031.-01-16.1 and 030.-01-01.0 (the "SSO Properties") for the construction of an industrial wastewater and reclaimed water conveyance system. I respectfully request that this letter be included in the official EDPL hearing record. 1. The wastewater conveyance line is a "Connected Action," not part of the defined "Project." According to the Micron Draft and Final EIS, the industrial wastewater and reclaimed water conveyance system is not part of the "Proposed Project" (which refers only to core site development at White Pine Commerce Park). Instead, it is labeled a Connected Action. However, OCIDA's public hearing notice and descriptions of the proposed taking refer to the easements as being part of the "Project," which is not consistent with the FEIS classification. This discrepancy matters because: • The public may not have been clearly or accurately informed of what the eminent domain action truly covers. • Calling a Connected Action a "Project" element may violate EDPL requirements for correct and complete notice. • A Connected Action cannot rely on the FEIS's "Project" analysis if that analysis did not include the wastewater corridor's impacts. In short, the notice may misdescribe the action. 2. The FEIS did not take a "hard look" at the environmental impacts of placing this line across the SSO Properties. As a community member reviewing the available information, it is clear that the FEIS: • provides extensive detail for the Micron campus itself; • but gives minimal, vague, or conclusory analysis of the wastewater corridor impacts. Missing or insufficiently addressed impacts include: • effects on wetlands, streams, and hydrology, • habitat toss and potential impacts on endangered or threatened species, • soil disturbance, erosion, and stormwater runoff, • trenching, HDD drilling, vibration, and construction-related risks, • potential contamination or catastrophic failure scenarios, • effects on surrounding residential, agricultural, and undeveloped parcels. The FEIS itself acknowledges significant, unavoidable impacts in several categories, but does not meaningfully evaluate what these mean for the specific route crossing 031.-01-16.1 and 030.-01- 01.0. 3. The proposed easements will affect the future use and value of the remaining property. OCIDA has stated that uses "outside of the easement area" will not change. As a citizen, I find this assertion unrealistic. Large industrial utility easements: • restrict future building locations, • restrict subdivision or development potential, • reduce land value, • increase risk exposure for neighboring landowners, • impose long-term operational burdens on surrounding properties. These issues were not addressed in the FEIS or Findings Statement. 4. The project has expanded beyond what the FEIS originally analyzed, requiring supplemental review. Micron's project is described as a multi-phase, decades-long development expected to expand significantly over time. The wastewater infrastructure now needed — including the easements over 031.-01-16.1 and 030.-01-01.0 -- may exceed what the FEIS originally contemplated. Under SEQRA, substantial project expansion or modification typically requires a Supplemental EIS, especially where impacts were not adequately evaluated. The public deserves clarity on whether this infrastructure reflects an expanded or altered project. 5. Community impacts have not been fully evaluated. The wastewater corridor and its construction raise numerous community concerns that were not assessed, including: • noise, vibration, dust, and safety during construction; • long-term maintenance access across private and sensitive lands; • impacts on local traffic during utility installation; • visual, routing, and character effects that were excluded from the visual analysis because the line is "buried," despite above-ground construction impacts. These have direct consequences for residents in the affected area. 6. OCIDA should not approve property takings until these unresolved issues are fully addressed. Given the deficiencies in environmental review, inaccurate description of the action, potential project expansion, and unclear long-term effects on parcels 031.-01-16.1 and 030.-01-01.0, I respectfully request that OCIDA: • decline to exercise eminent domain authority at this time, and • require additional environmental review and clearer public disclosure. The community deserves a full understanding of all impacts before irreversible decisions are made. 7. Additional Environmental Concerns In addition to the issues described above, I am also concerned that the FEIS does not adequately analyze several key environmental categories related to the wastewater conveyance line, including but not limited to: 1. Wetlands and Waterways -The Draft EIS acknowledges permanent and temporary impacts to wetlands and streams associated with Connected Actions, yet it does not provide site-specific evaluation of how the pipeline crossing or adjacent construction may affect wetlands or hydrology on or near Tax Map Nos. 031.-01-16.1 and 030.-01-01.0. 2. Habitat and Protected Species - The EIS identifies the potential presence of several endangered or threatened species along Connected Action routes. However, no species- specific surveys or habitat assessments were provided for the wastewater corridor crossing these parcels. 3. Soils, Stormwater, and Erosion - The area contains clay and erosion-prone soils. Large- scale ground disturbance such as trenching, grading, or directional drilling can cause sedimentation, runoff changes, and slope impacts. These issues are not evaluated for this specific corridor segment. 4. Construction Impacts -The FEIS does not assess construction-related noise, vibration, truck traffic, dust, staging areas, temporary access routes, mat bridges through wetlands, or surface disturbance associated with installing the pipeline across the SSO Properties. 5. Hazardous Material and Spin Risk - Industrial wastewater can contain chemical residues, solvents, and other contaminants. The FEIS does not analyze the risks of leaks, slow seepage, corrosion failure, or groundwater migration that could affect neighboring land or the broader environment. 6. Climate and Flood Resiliency -The wastewater line's vulnerability to flooding events, soil saturation, freeze-thaw cycles, or extreme precipitation events is not evaluated, nor are the consequences to nearby properties if flooding leads to pipe failure or exposure.

The Park is generally bounded on the north by the northern lot boundaries of parcels 048.-01-02.2, 048.-01-19.0, 048.-01-23.1, 048.-01-21.0, and 048.-01-22.0; on the east by the boundary between the towns of Clay and Cicero, on the south by NYS Route 31; and on the west by Caughdenoy Road. Members of the public may attend this Public Hearing in person. The Agency is considering an application (the “Application”) from Micron New York Semiconductor Manufacturing LLC (“Micron”) in connection with Micron’s plan to invest approximately $100 billion over the next 16 years to construct and operate a large-scale, state-of-the-art dynamic random-access memory (“DRAM”) semiconductor manufacturing facility at the Park (“Micron Campus”). In addition to the Micron Campus, Micron also plans to construct a rail spur and construction material conveyance facility to reduce truck trips and support construction of the Micron Campus (“Rail Spur Site”); a childcare center, healthcare center, and recreational center to serve its employees (“Childcare Site”); and to lease existing warehouse space within 20 miles of the Micron Campus (“Warehouse Site”) (collectively, with the Micron Campus, the “Project”). The Application requests the Agency acquire the Project Property Interests by eminent domain or negotiated purchase to effectuate the Project. The 1,377± acre Micron Campus will include the Park; a 28± acre portion of the parcel located in the Town of Cicero, Onondaga County, New York bearing tax map number 091.-01-02.1; the 9± acre Burnet Road right-of-way; and a 1± acre portion of the parcel located in the Town bearing tax map number 048.-01-02.1.

These three parcels, together with the remaining Micron Campus, the Oak Orchard Site, the Rail Spur Site, the Childcare Site, and the Warehouse Site collectively constitute the “Project Site.” 32727460.1 Azalia M. King November 7, 2025 Page 3 Acquisition of the Project Property Interests is necessary to acquire rights needed for a unified and comprehensive redevelopment of the Park and the Project. Acquisition of the Project Property Interests in the parcel bearing tax map number 046.-02-01.0 is necessary because the parcel is located within the Park on which 1,339± acres of the 1,377± acre proposed Micron Campus will be constructed and operated.

Use caution with links and attachments. Mr. Petrovich, I just now read an article published by Syracuse.com about your intentions to walk back on a deal you struck with an elderly woman. I have to say, I’m quite blown away. The audacity of that action is almost incomprehensible. To see a local government treat a 91 year old woman like that is reprehensible. You, being a county executive and more to the point, a government official, should be beyond reproach. Instead your actions feel and look a lot more like that of a criminal organization. Where is the honor in your decision to break a legal agreement you struck with her 20 years ago? Is it her fault that the county made a bad deal? It’s shameful to see a county official treat members of his community that way and all in the name of “progress”. Your ends don’t justify the means. I implore you to reconsider your bullish and backwards decision to uproot a 91 year old woman for the sake of a giant company. You, the county and Micron can and SHOULD honor the agreement made with Mrs. King. Adding another few years onto the completion date of the factory is not going to make a significant difference. Certainly not in the long run. You can and should be doing better. Progress at the expense of honor, commitment and good will, is not worth the land it’s built on. Wake up tomorrow and do better. Be better for the people you work for. If you can’t honor a commitment, how is anyone supposed to trust your word? How can any member of Onondaga county trust that you will follow through on promises made? That’s certainly not a good position to run a reelection campaign from. Do better Mr. Petrovich.

Urgent Action Alert: Stop the Eminent Domain Theft of a 91-Year-Old Widow’s Home! The fight for Azalia King’s lifelong home in Clay hits a critical moment: Onondaga County’s Industrial Development Agency (OCIDA) has scheduled a public hearing on November 20 at 9:00 AM at Clay Town Hall to rubber-stamp the eminent domain seizure—all to gift her property to Micron’s subsidized mega- complex. This isn’t “public use.” It’s government-backed corporate looting. Azalia and her late husband honored their end of a 20-year-old agreement. Now the county wants to break it, evict a 91-year-old great- grandmother, and hand her land to a billionaire-backed firm swimming in taxpayer billions. Show up. Speak out. Defend property rights.

This hearing is your chance to expose cronyism and stand with Azalia. Bring signs. Bring neighbors. Bring liberty. Onondaga County Eyes Eminent Domain to Boot 91-Year-Old Widow from Her Lifelong Home This is the ugly face of crony capitalism in action. Azalia King, a 91-year-old great-grandmother, has called her Clay home hers for over 60 years. Two decades ago, under the shadow of eminent domain threats, she and her late husband struck a deal with Onondaga County’s Industrial Development Agency (OCIDA): they’d sell the land, but she could live there for life. A solemn promise from the state to a hardworking family. 1 Fast-forward to today: Enter Micron’s shiny new semiconductor empire, fueled by your tax dollars in the form of billions in corporate subsidies. Suddenly, that “lifelong” promise is just ink on paper. OCIDA— now backed by the county—is filing for eminent domain to forcibly evict Azalia, all to clear the way for more government-picked winners. Her family’s fighting back, but the state’s machine doesn’t care about consent or contracts when big business beckons. This isn’t progress; it’s predation. Eminent domain was meant for true public use, not handing private property to favored corporations on a silver platter. It’s a direct assault on the sacred right to property— the foundation of liberty itself. When government can rewrite deals and seize homes on a whim, none of us are safe. Libertarians have warned about this for years: Stop the handouts, end the seizures, and let free markets build real prosperity without trampling individuals. The Libertarian Party of New York stands with Azalia King. We demand the county honor its word, scrap this eviction, and reform eminent domain to protect actual property rights—not corporate privileges. Join us in calling out this outrage. Contact your legislators, spread the word, and vote for liberty over loot. CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This is an e-mail transmission and the information is privileged and/or confidential.

Use caution with links and attachments. Dear Mr. Petrovich, I am a friend of Azalia King and her family and am writing to you to support keeping her in her home until the remainder of her days on earth. "Butch" King, as Azalia is known by her family and friends, has always been an active member of the community and has done so much for others. I cannot tell you how many Apple Pies she has made for the many church dinners, bazaars and anyone that might ask her for one! She was an avid seamstress and has made and donated items to those in need. I was not fortunate enough to know her husband Glenn, but from everything I have heard he gave as much to the community as his wife. If you can just put yourself in the shoes of her family and pretend Azalia was your mom, would you want your mom to be moved from her home at 91 years of age? The reason this is so disheartening is the fact that the powers that be are going back on their word on the agreement she would have life use of her home until God calls her home. Please show some compassion and allow Azalia to stay in her home. God bless you and praying you all do what is right for "Butch".

Use caution with links and attachments. Dear Mr. Petrovich, I am submitting the following comments in reference to the eminent domain proceedings against Mrs. Azalia King, as I will be unable to attend the hearing on Thursday morning. Thank you for your attention to this matter. My name is Tonya Eza, and I serve as the pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Clay. Azalia King is my parishioner, and I am writing against Onondaga County taking her house in eminent domain proceedings. I became acquainted with Azalia and her family very quickly after I arrived to serve Immanuel Lutheran Church as the pastor in 2023. I also heard the story of how she came to live in her home very soon after I arrived. She and her husband, Glenn, had negotiated use of the home that Azalia still lives in 20 years ago in another eminent domain proceeding against them. The bargain was that they had lifetime use of the house. That is a signed contract that now OCIDA is trying to renege on, and that is not fair. 1 Azalia is now 91 years old, and she’s not able to come to worship very often, so I try to visit her monthly. The stories I hear from her and her family are stories of a woman who has been a pillar of the Clay community for many, many years. She attended Sunday worship faithfully until her health no longer allowed her. She still enjoys having visitors come to her home; every time I come to visit her, she always wants to give me something to eat and drink. To force her from her home now is cruel and unusual punishment. You are asking a 91-year-old widow to give up the home she has lived in and raised her family in, all so you can make things easier for Micron to destroy the Clay environment and build their factory. Furthermore, the latest report from Micron is that there is going to be a 2–3-year delay in the completion of their first factory. There should not be a problem with waiting a while longer to take the property. Fulfill your promise to Azalia King and her family and let her live in her home until the end of her time here on earth. Jesus said, “Just as you did to one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did it to me” (Matthew 25:40). Does OCIDA really want to be known for forcing a 91-year-old widow out of her home? -- Rev.

Use caution with links and attachments. Please see the attached file regarding the above referenced. As I sadly was unable to attend the Public Hearing today, I am submitting the attached comments for the record. Sincerely, Dawn Brocious Clay NY 1 With regard to the Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency (OCIDA) public hearing under New York’s Eminent Domain Procedure Law I wish to submit the following comment(s): As for the use of Eminent Domain by the OCIDA, first and foremost, you all should be ashamed of yourselves. Apparently, the almighty dollar means more to you than respecting a person’s right to live where they choose, if it interferes with your plans. This was evidenced by the treatment of the former residents of Burnet Road, as well as what you are doing to Mrs. King. Regarding the public use benefit of taking these properties: “A private entity’s pursuit of profit is not a public use benefit. The Court rejected the notion that "a private entity's pursuit of profit was a 'public use' . . . simply because one entity's profit maximization contributed to the health of the general economy”; and “The use of eminent domain for private parties should be disfavored because: private takings allow inordinate private influence to distort the eminent domain process. In a taking primarily for a private benefit (e.g., the assembly of land for a real estate development), the single beneficiary of the taking (the developer) can obtain a relatively concentrated benefit. By contrast, in a taking primarily for the public benefit (e.g., the acquisition of land for a new highway), the beneficiaries of the taking (the future users of the road) are more numerous and can obtain only a relatively dispersed benefit. As a result, private parties that would directly benefit from takings have a stronger incentive than the general public to subvert the takings power for their own advantage in ways that are not necessarily socially desirable. Using eminent domain for private parties tends to encourage two additional types of inordinate influence. First, private parties that directly benefit from the state's use of eminent domain are typically not required to reimburse the state for the cost of the condemnations. Because private actors can use eminent domain to acquire land costlessly for their own objectives, these actors have an incentive to engage in excessive takings. Second, potential private beneficiaries can exploit disparities in legal and financial resources to obtain the state's condemnation authority. Indeed, while the primary beneficiaries of private takings tend to be real estate developers and corporations, as in this case, the primary victims of these takings tend to be the economically disadvantaged, the elderly, and racial and ethnic minorities”.The Public Use Requirement in Eminent Domain Law: A Rationale Based on Secret Purchases and Private Influence. How is this benefiting the public? With regard for the proposed construction of a new WWTP for Micron on the property listed in the Notice of Public Hearing: This is the first time that I have heard of this. As We live within ¼ mile of this proposed WWTP I have serious concerns regarding the effects of said WWTP on our health, well-being and property values and I want to know how these concerns will be addressed. And who is paying for the $500 million WWTP? “In a case control study, including 235 inhabitants living within a 500 m radius by a municipal wastewater treatment plant (cases) and 97 inhabitants living in a different area (controls), was conducted. A standardized questionnaire was self-completed by the participants which examined the general health perception and overall life satisfaction. Also, the concentration of airborne pathogenic microorganisms in aerosol samples collected around the wastewater treatment plant was investigated. Significant risk for symptoms such as headache, unusual tiredness, and concentration difficulties was recorded and an increased possibility for respiratory and skin diseases was reported. A high rate of the cases being irritable and moody was noticed. Significantly higher gastrointestinal symptoms were also reported among the cases in relation to the controls. The prevalence of pathogenic airborne microorganisms originating from the wastewater treatment plant was reported in high numbers in sampling points close to the wastewater treatment plant”. Impact on the Quality of Life When Living Close to a Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant - PMC Furthermore, properties near wastewater treatment plants may experience depreciation due to the impact of these factors on the quality of life and the perception of the neighborhood. So, this proposed action and construction will benefit me and my neighbors how?? “Even though there is a “non-binding" term sheet and Micron has never committed formally or informally, to spend $100 billion on the Clay Chip Fab, NYS has agreed to provide up to 5.5 billion in funding.” Subsidy Sheet: Concerns Grow Over Micron Plant’s Impact on Budget - Reinvent Albany “The Micron project is expected to cost taxpayers approximately $667,000 per job created, assuming the company meets its target of employing 9,000 individuals. This figure is based on the total public subsidies disclosed to date, which exceed $6 billion.” “In addition to the federal incentives provided under the federal Chips and Science Act, state officials estimate the incentives powering New York’s agreement with Micron would exceed $11 billion.[xli] The terms included the following: • Up to $5.5 billion in refundable “Green CHIPS” state tax credits, awarded in two phases: o $4.72 billion for “qualified investment” in New York o $546 million in employment-based incentives o $234 million for “research & development expenditures” in New York • Sales and use tax abatements valued at $4.9 billion.[xlii] This included exemption of sales and use taxes “on all construction and building materials” subject to such taxes involved in construction of Phase 1. • A 49-year real property tax abatement, with estimated savings of $284 million[xliii] • Up to $200 million from NYS for local roadway improvements and other infrastructure[xliv] • $100 million from NYS to seed a “community investment fund”[xlv] • Reinvestment into the industrial park of the $30 million site purchase price (which would be exempted from the mortgage recording tax). • $25 million in county payments: o $10 million to help Syracuse University establish a “Semiconductor research and development initiative” in Syracuse o $5 million “to assist with initial hiring during Fab Complex startup” o $5 million “to support local skill development for Onondaga County residents” o $5 million “façade grant” for “exterior improvements to the on-site structure” • Guaranteed, and discounted, electricity supply from the New York Power Authority, for a savings valued at about $3 million per year as of 2028[xlvi] Micron stands to receive other negotiated benefits from the local sewer and water entities, as well as from National Grid, the local gas and electricity utility. These incentives must be considered separately however, due to Micron’s uniquely large demand and the extent to which cost recovery for any discount is socialized through user fees. For instance, Onondaga County is considering building a $500 million sewer treatment plant to accommodate Micron, though Micron would likely not be the only customer.” The Micron Test - Empire Center for Public Policy. It would appear that Micron stands to benefit greatly from the project. Lastly, who is providing oversight to prevent our tax dollars from being used for stock buybacks? “The new report is the first to provide detailed data on stock buybacks and CEO pay at the first 11 corporations to sign preliminary CHIPS agreements with the Department of Commerce. These companies are in line for subsidies totaling nearly $30 billion. The analysis focuses on the $39 billion in subsidies for semiconductor manufacturing in the 2022 CHIPS and Science Act, and specifically on the Biden administration’s decision to grant preferential treatment in the awarding of these subsidies to firms that agree to forgo all stock buybacks for five years. • The 11 companies with preliminary CHIPS agreements spent more than $41 billion on stock buybacks between 2019 and 2023 — enough to provide 300,000 employees a $27,541 bonus every year for five years. • None of the companies in line for these subsidies have publicly committed to suspend existing share repurchase plans (which currently authorize $14.3 billion in buyback spending) or to refrain from adopting new plans during the grant period. • Micron Technology’s CEO was the highest paid, with total compensation valued at $25.3 million in 2023. Half of Micron employees made less than $54,570. • In a July 1 letter to Commerce Secretary Raimondo, Senator Elizabeth Warren and House members Pramila Jayapal, Sean Casten, and Bill Foster noted that the federal agency has the “statutory authority to fully ban CHIPS grant recipients from engaging in stock buybacks as a condition of award.” The lawmakers expressed concern that unless the administration asserts this authority, they will “leave the door open for semiconductor companies to take millions or even billions in CHIPS grants, move some money around, and then engage in more stock buybacks.” CEOs with preliminary CHIPS agreements are sitting on company stock holdings worth more than $2.7 billion ($306 million on average), reflecting the enormous potential for executives to cash in on future buyback-related bumps in share price.” New Report Shows Need for Buyback Restrictions in CHIPS Program - Institute for Policy Studies We have listened to our elected officials tout this project AD NAUSEUM. We have been told how great it will be for us in the Town of Clay and the rest of the community. But the truth is, if you “follow the money” you quickly learn who really stands to benefit here.
