Members of the public are invited to address the sufficiency of the Wainscott Commercial Center (WCC) preliminary subdivision and draft environmental impact statement (DEIS). The documents are available at:
ehamptonny.gov/675/Wainscott-Commercial-Center
This application aims to subdivide a 3,071,497 sq. ft. parcel (about 70 acres) into 50 lots with most lots about 1 acre in size and the southernmost lots (#21 and #22) to be about 4.5 acres and contain an existing ready-mix concrete plant and to be about 6.5 acres in size and contain an existing masonry and tile supply yard, respectively. The parcel is located on the north side of Montauk Highway, Wainscott and is situated in a Commercial Industrial (CI) zoning district.
This would be the largest commercial subdivision in the history of East Hampton, 2.5 times the size of Bridgehampton Commons and may have impacts beyond Wainscott – on ground and surface waters (there is no plan for an advanced sewage system) and by substantially increasing traffic.
