SIGNIFICANT EFFECT ON THE ENVIRONMENT.<br />
WHEREAS, the Board of Education of the <strong>Chatham</strong> <strong>Central</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>District</strong>, in the County of<br />
Columbia, New York (the “<strong>District</strong>”) is considering undertaking a capital improvement project consisting of the<br />
construction of additions to and the reconstruction of various school buildings, including site work thereat, as<br />
well as the acquisition of furnishings, equipment, machinery or apparatus required for the purpose for which
4<br />
such buildings are to be used, a portion of which will be financed by the issuance of bonds in an amount to be<br />
determined (the “Project”); and<br />
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law of the State of New York,<br />
as amended, and the regulations of the Department of Environmental Conservation of the State of New York<br />
promulgated thereunder (collectively referred to hereinafter as “SEQRA”), the <strong>District</strong> is required to make a<br />
determination whether the “action” (as said quoted term is defined in SEQRA) to be taken by the <strong>District</strong> may<br />
have a “significant impact on the environment” (as said quoted term is utilized in SEQRA) and the<br />
preliminary agreement of the <strong>District</strong> to undertake the Project constitutes such an action; and<br />
WHEREAS, to aid the <strong>District</strong> in determining whether undertaking the Project may have a significant<br />
impact upon the environment, the <strong>District</strong> has prepared a short Environmental Assessment Form (the “EAF”)<br />
with respect to the Project, a copy of which is on file at the office of the <strong>District</strong>; and<br />
WHEREAS, by resolution dated August 13, <strong>2013</strong> (the “Lead Agency Resolution”), the <strong>District</strong><br />
classified the action as an Unlisted Action under SEQRA and declared its intent to act as “lead agency” for<br />
purposes of a coordinated review under SEQRA; and<br />
WHEREAS, all involved agencies consented in writing to the <strong>District</strong> acting as lead agency for purposes<br />
of a coordinated review under SEQRA; and<br />
WHEREAS, as a result of its careful review and examination of the Project and related materials, the<br />
<strong>District</strong> finds that it has more than adequate information to evaluate all of the relevant benefits and potential<br />
impacts associated with the Project.<br />
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THE <strong>CHATHAM</strong> CENTRAL<br />
SCHOOL DISTRICT AS FOLLOWS:<br />
Section 1. Based upon an examination of the EAF for the Project, the criteria contained in 6 NYCRR<br />
§617.7(c), and based further upon the <strong>District</strong>’s knowledge of the Project and area and buildings to be<br />
improved, and such further investigation of the Project and its environmental impacts as the <strong>District</strong> has<br />
deemed appropriate, the <strong>District</strong> makes the following findings and determinations with respect to the Project<br />
pursuant to SEQRA.<br />
(A) The Project consists of the components described above in the first WHEREAS clause of this<br />
resolution; and<br />
(B) The Project constitutes an “Unlisted Action” (as said quoted term is defined in SEQRA); and<br />
(C) The Project will not have a significant effect on the environment, and the <strong>District</strong> will not require the<br />
preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement with respect to the Project; and<br />
(D) As a consequence of the foregoing, the <strong>District</strong> has prepared a Negative Declaration with respect to<br />
the Project, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit “A”, which shall be filed in the office of the <strong>District</strong><br />
in a file that is readily accessible to the public; and<br />
Section 2. The <strong>District</strong>’s counsel is hereby authorized and directed to perform such acts as may be<br />
necessary or convenient to implement the provisions of this Resolution and fulfill the <strong>District</strong>’s requirements<br />
under SEQRA for the Project.<br />
Section 3. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.<br />
