THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK

RESOLUTION NO. 1791

 

Resolution approving the decision of the City Planning Commission on ULURP No. C 200319 PCK (L.U. No. 885), a site selection and acquisition of property located at 110 5th Street (Block 990, Lot 21), 122 5th Street (Block 990, Lot 16), 22 2nd Avenue (Block 990, Lot 1), 5th Street (Block 977 p/o Lot 1) and 2 2nd Avenue (Block 977, p/o Lot 3), for Department of Sanitation salt and equipment storage, environmental education activities and additional space as needed for the combined sewer overflow (CSO) control facility, Borough of Brooklyn, Community District 6.

 

By Council Members Salamanca and Moya

 

                           WHEREAS, Department of Sanitation, the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS), filed an application pursuant to Section 197-c of the New York City Charter for the site selection and acquisition of property located at 110 5th Street (Block 990, Lot 21), 122 5th Street (Block 990, Lot 16), 22 2nd Avenue (Block 990, Lot 1), 5th Street (Block 977 p/o Lot 1) and 2 2nd Avenue (Block 977, p/o Lot 3), for Department of Sanitation salt and equipment storage, environmental education activities and additional space as needed for the combined sewer overflow (CSO) control facility, which in conjunction with the related action would facilitate the construction of CSO control facilities and the onsite relocation of a DSNY salt and equipment storage facility in the Gowanus neighborhood of Brooklyn, Community District 6 (ULURP No. C 200319 PCK) (the “Application”);

 

                     WHEREAS, the City Planning Commission filed with the Council on October 8, 2021 its decision dated October 6, 2021 (the "Decision") on the Application;

 

                     WHEREAS, the Application is related to applications C 200320 MMK (L.U. No. 886), a city map amendment for the elimination of Fifth Street between Second Avenue and the Gowanus Canal, C 200321 PSK (L.U. No. 887), a site selection of real property by the City to facilitate new CSO infrastructure, and C180039 MMK, a city map amendment;

 

                     WHEREAS, the Decision is subject to review and action by the Council pursuant to Section 197-d of the City Charter;

 

                           WHEREAS, upon due notice, the Council held a public hearing on the Decision and Application on October 12, 2021;

 

                           WHEREAS, the Council has considered the land use implications and other policy issues relating to the Decision and Application; and

 

WHEREAS, the Council has considered the relevant environmental issues, including the Positive Declaration issued March 1st, 2017 (CEQR No. 17DEP040K) and a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for which a Notice of Completion was issued on February 1, 2018, which identified significant adverse impacts with respect to historic and cultural resources (architectural and archeological) and potential temporary significant adverse noise impacts during the construction period. The impacts to historic and cultural resources would be mitigated to the maximum extent practicable through additional analyses, archaeological monitoring, or an alternative method developed in consultation with the New York State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC). The Council also considered the Technical Memorandum dated April 23, 2021 (the “Technical Memorandum”) which concludes that the application would not result in any significant adverse impacts that were not already identified in the FEIS.

 

RESOLVED: 

 

                     Having considered the FEIS and Technical Memorandum with respect to the Decision and Application, the Council finds that:

                      

(1)                     The FEIS meets the requirements of 6 N.Y.C.R.R. Part 617;

 

(2)                     Consistent with social, economic, and other essential considerations, from among the reasonable alternatives thereto, the action is one which minimizes or avoids adverse environmental impacts to the maximum extent practicable; and

 

(3)                     The adverse environmental impacts disclosed in the FEIS will be minimized or avoided to the maximum extent practicable by incorporating as conditions to the approval those project components related to the environment and mitigation measures that were identified as practicable.

 

                     The Decision, together with the FEIS and Technical Memorandum constitute the written statement of facts, and of social, economic and other factors and standards that form the basis of this determination, pursuant to 6 N.Y.C.R.R. §617.11(d).

 

Pursuant to Section 197-d of the City Charter and on the basis of the Decision and Application, and based on the environmental determination and consideration described in the report, C 200319 PCK, incorporated by reference herein, and the record before the Council, the Council approves the Decision for the site selection and acquisition of the Site for Department of Sanitation salt and equipment storage, environmental education activities and additional space as needed for the combined sewer overflow (CSO) control facility.

 

Adopted.
