Total Size (acres) 181.24 Assessed Value Assessed values for parcel on the development area range from $64,000 to $334,900 on acreages ranging from 41.76 and 90.87 acres.
Land Use Vacant farmland, vacant Adjacent Properties Religious; undeveloped lands; single family commercial land with residence; and trucking. improvements, vacant industrial, undeveloped
Road Frontage 1815 feet on Island Road; Comments The traffic capacity of Northern Blvd is 2600 feet on Northern appropriate for business/industrial park land Blvd use on the site. Also, such a use would not be incompatible with adjacent uses as the development area is largely surrounded by development-constraining wetlands.
ZONING
Uses Permitted The development area, located in the Town of Cicero, contains portions that are zoned Multiple Residential (RM) and Industrial (IN). Zoning regulations in the Town of Cicero are all residential use districts together with regards toward permitted uses. Permitted uses in residential districts include one-family residence, enclosed accessory building use, and private garages. Two-family dwellings and townhouses are only allowed in RM Districts. All uses allowed in the IN District require site plan approval. Allowable uses in the I District include manufacturing; warehousing and distribution facilities; trucking terminals; sales, service and/or repair of heavy equipment or machinery; contractor’s storage yard; automotive repair and/or garage facilities; public utility facilities; public storage; and other industrial uses if the Planning Board finds that such proposed use meets the statement of intent and is of the same general character and intensity as those uses allowed.
Off Street Parking Off-street parking requirements in the Town of Cicero are determined by use. The Planning Board, as part of the site plan approval process, shall specify the number of parking and loading spaces required considering the nature and intensity of the use, the site conditions and other pertinent considerations. The Planning Board shall be guided by the standards set forth in professional design manuals such as the American Planning Association Off-Street Parking Standards.
Set-backs Setback requirements in the Town of Cicero are dictated by zoning district. The IN District requires 75-ft. front, 30-ft. side, and 25-ft. rear yard minimum setbacks. Requirements in residential districts are further broken down by use. In the RM District, listed uses include single-family dwelling, two- family dwelling, multi-family, townhouses, and non-residential. Setback regulations for non-residential use in the RM District require 30-ft. front, 30-ft. side, and 50-ft. rear yard minimum setbacks.

Height Restrictions The maximum building heights allowed in the RM District for non-residential use and in the IN District are 35 feet and 60 feet, respectively.
DEVELOPMENT IMPLICATIONS SUMMARY
The development area, located in the Town of Cicero, contains portions that are zoned Multiple Residential (RM) and Industrial (IN). While the IN District permits most forms of light industrial, warehousing, and office use, the RM District does not and such development would require a zoning variance from the Town of Cicero Zoning Board of Appeals or a zoning change by the Town of Cicero Planning Board and the Town Board.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS SUMMARY
Prior to the development area being developed a wetland delineation of all portions of the site should be performed. The NWI and NYSDEC mapped wetlands on the site could be larger than currently mapped. The development area also contained areas mapped as hydric soil that may contain wetland areas. Any disturbance to wetlands on the development area could result in the need to obtain wetland associated permits from the USACE or the NYSDEC. Depending on the acreage of impacts caused by development of the site, wetland or stream mitigation could be required. Mitigation requirements generally are applicable when greater than 0.10-acre of wetland are permanently disturbed. A cultural/historic resource review should be completed on-site prior to any development. A threatened and endangered species habitat assessment should also be completed on site prior to development.

The St. Lawrence Subdivision of the CSXT network provides north/south rail services linking Syracuse to Massena, and ultimately Montreal from the Syracuse Rail Yard. The St. Lawrence Subdivision junctions with the Fulton Subdivision which provides rail services to the Fulton and Oswego areas. CSXT maintains rail yards in Selkirk and Syracuse, intermodal terminals in Syracuse and Buffalo, and TRANSFLOW terminals in Albany, Syracuse, and Buffalo, NY.
CNY is also served by the NYS&W rail line, a regional network that provides rail freight service from the Syracuse area along a main line south to Binghamton and the NYC metropolitan area, as well as the Finger Lakes Railway Corporation, a short line rail network that provides freight rail service from the Syracuse area to Western New York and Pennsylvania.
Distance to Rail Siding CSXT operates a north/south mainline rail 5 miles west of the Site and an east/west mainline rail 5 miles south of the Site. The Site currently is not served by or adjacent to rail siding. The Syracuse Rail Yard and Intermodal Terminal is located 9 miles southeast from the development

General Comments Water is partially available at development area. There are 8" mains along Island Road and Totman Road, and a 42" MWB main along Northern Boulevard. No public water fronts Tax IDs 54.-1-15.1, which could be serviced from the 8" main on Totman Road (~1000 feet from site), or obtained from the 42" MWB main through a special permit or metered connection.
Summary Water is partially available at the development area through 8" or 12" mains or the 42" MWB connection. The available capacity is 6 MGD and water pressure ranges from 65-85 psi. The southern side of the site would require a main extension to be serviced.
