FISHERS RIDGE (Formerly Town Square)
State Route 96
The project is planned to be developed in states and to ultimately include approximately 750,000 square feet of building floor area, including approximately 550,000 square feet of commercial space, a 100,000 square foot hotel and approximately 100,000 square feet of office and residential space. The application is under the State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) process. The basic purpose of SEQR is to incorporate the consideration of environmental factors into the existing planning, review and decision making processes of state, regional and local government agencies at the earliest possible time. To accomplish this, SEQR requires that all agencies determine whether the actions they directly undertake, fund or approve may have a significant impact on the environment, and if it is determined that the proposed project may have a significant adverse impact, an environmental impact statement is prepared. The Planning Board had determined themselves to be Lead Agency on this project. They also issued a Positive Declaration which means that the proposed action may result in a significant adverse impact on the environment and therefore, a Draft Environmental Impact Statement must be prepared. A scoping hearing was held in December of 2007 and January of 2008 to focus the environmental impact statement on potentially significant adverse impact and to eliminate consideration of those impacts that are irrelevant or non-significant. The scoping outline of issues was adopted by the Planning Board on February 12, 2008.

• The Planning Board declared themselves Lead Agency and issued a Positive Declaration on November 13, 2007. The Scoping Outline for the DEIS is available in pdf format.
