  • City of Peekskill Section II. Inventory and Analysis
    SECTION II INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS A. EXISTING LAND AND WATER USES 1. Overview The CityofPeekskill is a denselypopulatedurban areaas is apparentbyexisting land and water use patterns. The 2000 Census indicated that the total city population is 22,441. Large areas of industrial use, private institutional uses, and public open space generally characterize the waterfront area. Scattered throughout the area are small pockets of general commercial, low density residential, warehouse and distribution uses, municipal uses and vacant land. A substantial amount of underutilized industrial land and several deteriorated properties exist throughout the waterfront planning area. The Peekskill Waterfront Revitalization Area canbe divided into two land use areas: 1) the waterfront areas along the HudsonRiver andAnnsville Creek and2) the inland areas that have a direct and significant impact but are not directly located on the coastal waters. Because existing uses influence the future use and development of the area, it is important to have an understanding ofthe existing land use patterns within the area. For the purpose ofthis study, the waterfront area may be divided into four planning areas: 1) Southern, 2) Central, 3) Northern and 4) Annsville Creek. By dividing the waterfront area, the City is able to develop more specific planning strategies and policies specific to the conditions and needs within each area. Existing land use patterns are presented on the attached maps. a. Southern Plannin2 Area - The Southern Planning Area begins on the west side ofLower South Street paralleling the Metro North railroad tracks at the City limits. The properties on the western side ofLower South Street and to the east ofthe railroad tracks are characterized by a concentration ofheavy industrial uses including utilities, manufacturing and outdoor storage (scrap metal, automobile and used machinery parts and contractors' materials and construction materials).

(“Scenic Hudson”) urges the United States Coast Guard (“USCG”) to halt the proposed rulemaking to establish ten new anchorage grounds in the Hudson River between Yonkers, New York and Kingston, New York (Docket No. USCG-2016-0132). If, despite all the reasons set forth below, the USCG continues with the rulemaking process, it must conduct environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”), including preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (“EIS”). I. INTRODUCTION Scenic Hudson is a non-profit environmental organization based in Poughkeepsie, New York, working to protect and restore the Hudson River and its majestic landscape as an irreplaceable national treasure and a vital resource for residents and visitors.

Today with more than 25,000 ardent supporters, we are the largest environmental group focused on the Hudson River Valley. Our team of experts combines land acquisition, support for agriculture, citizen-based advocacy and sophisticated planning tools to create environmentally healthy communities, champion smart economic growth, open up riverfronts to the public and preserve the valley’s inspiring beauty and natural resources. To date Scenic Hudson has created or 1 enhanced more than 65 parks, preserves and historic sites up and down the Hudson River and conserved almost 40,000 acres in the Hudson Valley.
