Council Member Anane introduced the following: RESOLUTION 66.62.24R A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL DECLARING ITS INTENT TO ACT AS LEAD AGENCY FOR THE STATE ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY REVIEW OF ORDINANCE 3.21.24 AND DECLARING IT A TYPE I ACTION WHEREAS, on February 5, 2024, Council Member Anane introduced Ordinance 3.21.24, which would affect; and WHEREAS, the Common Council has reviewed the State Environmental Quality Review Act (“SEQRA”) Full Environmental Assessment Form (“FEAF”), Part I, prepared by the Research Counsel, examining the potential environmental impacts of Ordinance 3.21.24, and WHEREAS, the Common Council has determined that although the said Action is subject to review by the County Planning Board, it is not subject to approval from other involved agencies under SEQRA; and WHEREAS, the Common Council is, therefore, the only involved agency, resulting in the Council being lead agency; and WHEREAS, the Common Council has identified Ordinance 3.21.24 as a zoning change affecting greater than 25 acres, and WHEREAS, as such, the Common Council has determined that the Action is a Type I action under SEQRA; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, having reviewed the above-referenced FEAF, the Common Council determines that the Action is a Type I action under SEQRA; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Common Council of the City of Albany does hereby declare its intent to act as lead agency for this Action and will conduct a SEQRA review. To: Shaniqua Jackson, City Clerk From: Jake Eisland, Research Counsel Brett Williams, Senior Assistant Corporation Counsel Re: Common Council Legislation Supporting Memorandum Date: June 6, 2024 Sponsor: Council Member Anane RESOLUTION 66.62.24R TITLE A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL DECLARING ITS INTENT TO ACT AS LEAD AGENCY FOR THE STATE ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY REVIEW OF ORDINANCE 3.21.24 AND DECLARING IT A TYPE I ACTION GENERAL PURPOSE OF LEGISLATION As part of the consideration of zoning legislation, the potential environmental impacts of those changes must be considered in the context of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (“SEQRA”). The first step in this process is to determine whether the contemplated Action is a type I, type II, or unlisted action under SEQRA. If an action meets any of the criteria listed in the regulations for action types I and II, it is one of those types of actions. If it meets none of the criteria, it is an unlisted action. Here, the action does meet the type I criteria, specifically a zoning change affecting more than 25 acres. Since this change affects the entire city, which is over 25 acres, a Type I review is required. The next step in a Type I action is to complete Part I of a full environmental assessment form (“FEAF”). A copy of the FEAF in this matter is included herewith. Once the FEAF is completed, one of the entities involved in the Action may declare itself “lead agency,” with which designation it may coordinate the SEQRA review of the Action with all other entities that are involved and interested in the Action. As the only involved agency, we will be the lead agency by default. This resolution formally accomplishes these initial steps in the SEQRA process. NECESSITY FOR LEGISLATION AND ANY CHANGE TO EXISTING LAW This resolution formally expresses the Council’s determinations that 1) the Action is a Type I action and 2) the Council intends to act as lead agency for the SEQRA review of this action, and FISCAL IMPACT The Council expressing its intent to serve as lead agency has no fiscal impact.
