ProjectExtend moorings 15' further out in to the Lake in accordance with plans attached.

BackgroundCarriage Hill is a shared lakefront facility that operates as an association with 18 slips inclusive of 3 on moorings. The facility has been authorized for 3 moorings dating back to the 1980's. The applicant seeks to move the authorized moorings 15' further offshore. Allowing the moored vessels to maintain a full 360 degree swing would result in the vessels extending more than 100' offshore. This requires a variance from Commission regulations at 646-1.1(c)12.

Of note, the moorings may need to be located further offshore than originally estimated by the applicant. The application and previous permits estimate that the full swing radius of a 26' vessel on a mooring will be 28' including the vessel. Taking vertical rope length and water depth into account, as provided by the applicant, the swing radius is now estimated at roughly 35'. To achieve the desired separation of the mooring field to the dock complex, it may be necessary to relocate moorings to roughly 99' offshore rather than the 90' initially proposed by the applicant. The applicant has expressed that he is amenable to this reassessment. Regulatory DeterminationsSEQRAThe application represents a Type II action and no further review is required under SEQRA.

VARIANCEThe Commission must determine if the documentation presented is sufficient to prove unnecessary hardship as set forth in Section 645-8.3 Standard:(a) No variance shall be granted under this Subpart unless the applicant shall establish by substantial, credible evidence unnecessary hardship.(b) In order to establish unnecessary hardship, an applicant must demonstrate: (1) unique and peculiar conditions to the applicant's particular situation which impose a substantial technological, financial or safety burden upon the applicant or the public; (2) that because of such uniqueness, there is no reasonable possibility that the applicant's property or, if no property is involved, the continuation of the application's business, enterprise, use or activity will bring a reasonable return following conformity with the regulations of the Commission; (3) that the proposed activity will have no adverse impact on the public health, safety or welfare, the environment or the resources of the Park; and (4) that the granting of a variance will not alter the essential character of the area in which the proposed use or activity is located, and will not lead to congestion in the Park.

FINDINGS FOR MARINAS, DOCKS, MOORINGS APPLSThe Commission must make findings under provision 6NYCRR 646-1.6(a):

"Prior to granting any permit relative to a dock, wharf, mooring or marina, the Commission shall ascertain the probable effect of the proposed facility and the operation thereof on the health, safety and welfare of the public and on the resources of the Park. The Commission shall also ascertain the impact of the proposed facility upon the congestion of Lake George and the probable visual, cultural and audible effects of the proposed facility on the neighborhood in which the facility is proposed and on the Park. Where the Commission determines that the facility will have an undue impact upon the health, safety, or welfare of the public or the resources of the park, lead to overcrowding or congestion, or cause undue visual, cultural or audible impacts on the neighborhood or the Park, a permit shall be denied."

From: Joe JohnsSent: Tuesday, January 12, 2021 2:37 PMTo: Joe ThouinSubject: RE: Carriage Hill App

Good Afternoon, I have reviewed the application for the Carriage Hill Association. I feel extending the moorings an additional 15’ out into the lake will cause a navigational hazard in the following ways:

1. New York State Navigational Law states that the maximum speed limit within 100’ of shore is 5mph. With the increased distance from shore, the mooring ball with a 3’‐5’ line to the eye hook on the boat and the swing of a 26’ boat could see these boats 116’‐119’from shore where a boat could be traveling legally at 45mph. At night the speed limit in excess of 100’ is 25mph. There is a danger that these moored boats could be stuck by another boater.

2. The area of the docks and moorings sticks out significantly further into the lake than the properties to the north and south. Someone from the north could come out from their dock and come around the corner and not expect to see a moored boat extending that far out into the lake. Immediately to the south, are two busy hotel who cater to guests who bring their own boats or rent boats for their vacation. The same problem exists here. These guests who are headed north may come of the dock and make an immediate turn to the north at night and not see a boat extended that far out into the lake.

Due to the swing of the boats being over 100’ from shore and the possibility of boats traveling over 5mph through the area and the land mass of the property sticking out significantly more into the lake than the northern and southern properties, I feel this permit would cause a navigational hazard of approved.

From: Kevin Tonn <[email protected]>Sent: Wednesday, January 6, 2021 8:13 PMTo: Joe ThouinSubject: Re: Carraiage Hill Lake Club, Mooring Modification

Dear Mr Thouin, In reply to your email, 1. The depth of the water is approximately 8 ft. 2. The length of chain between the anchor and the mooring is 12ft. 3. The length from mooring to boat is 3ft. I would like to point out the bow ring which attaches to the mooring is not at the tip of the boat but is set back about a foot or more which reduces the swing. Also, the location of the property is up against a mountain which selters the property from wind. If there is a wind blowing west to east the water around the mooring is flat with very little or no wind. I have never seen the chains taught with an easterly wind and therefore there would be a limited number of times where they would be over the 100 ft mark. I want to thank you for taking the time and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at 516-510-6391. Thank you, Kevin Tonn On Wed, Jan 6, 2021 at 1:19 PM Joe Thouin <[email protected]> wrote:

Follow Up Flag: FollowUpFlag Status: Completed

Dear Mr. Thouin, In reply to your email, 1. Every member of the Carriage Hill Lake Club owns residence property in the Park and has since 1984. As you stated, Joe Matteo owns land and plans on building on that land. Ann Trimble and Regina Treffelitti are sisters who own the property directly across from the docks at 3725 Lake Shore Drive, Diamond Point, NY and have owned it since 1979. 2. This has never been a problem before in regard to ownership in the Park because every member has owned residence in the Park since 1984. In order to comply with the Lake George Park commission, we will amend our by-laws that any current members and future members must have residence in Lake George Park to be a member of the Carriage Hill Lake Club. I hope the above clarifies your questions and feel free to contact me with any other questions. Regards, Kevin Tonn 516-510-6391

----- Forwarded Message ----- From: CASAVANT RAYMOND <[email protected]> To: r smith <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, December 12, 2020, 02:18:02 PM EST Subject: Re: Carriage Hill Lake Club, Lake George 226.05-1-25 Dear Mr Smith, Thank You for Your response on 12/4/20 regarding our mooring dilemmas in recent years. The 3 iron cross placements approved in the early 1980's was the most intelligent procedure for the safety of all 3 moorings and how they related to the 3 docks. It was noted back then that the Carriage Lake Club property was not a cove or a safe bay but a point receiving destructive winds and waves capable of sinking boats smashed against the docks by northeast winds coming across a large open body of water. Yes, a number of boats sunk to the bottom of the lake !! This resulted in the dock owners having now the new larger boats being secured with special lines and whips to project their boats further away from the docks. You can see how that affected all the three mooring owners. The good news I can share with you is, that all three boats rarely, if ever, project out into open waters away from the shore line. They normally point north or south of the shoreline. The bad news is that our boats often get blown towards the outer docks with the sterns being close to these outer docks using the projected boat system. It is not uncommon that some storms were so violent that waves went over the other docks and moorings at times shifted to some degree and needed to be reset. From day one all three moorings were permitted the same maximum boat lengths. All interested parties that are interested in purchasing my boat want, with certainty, the privilege of mooring a boat up to 26' or the sale does not go thru. Your suggestion has been the most logical idea to date. Most of the club members are very concern about this matter and we need your logic and leadership in this matter. Sincerely, Raymond Casavant On Thursday, December 3, 2020, 01:39:54 PM EST, r smith <[email protected]> wrote:

Dear Mr. Casavant,

Follow Up Flag: FollowUpFlag Status: Flagged

The above variance would greatly improve the safety navigating boats to and from the docks located at the above parcel. Depending on wind direction it can become almost impossible to pull a boat in or out without colliding with one of the moored boats. Also, high winds out of the northeast or east, push the moored boats dangerously close to the boats docked on the outside of the center and north docks. It would be greatly appreciated if this variance was approved. Thank you for the opportunity to provide you with our concerns. Fred & Cathy Boddy

Mr. Thouin, I am the third of the three moorings at Carriage Hill. A few years back Molly had me in the water with a line to measure out the placement of the moorings. We brought all of them into where she specified that they should be. That being said I really feel an extra ~15 or so feet would be much safer for the moored boats as well as the boats coming in and out of the docks. It would be much easier to navigate with the extra room. If you need anything please let me know. Thank you for your time.

Please find attached a notice of availability of review for an application to extend existing HOA moorings at Carriage Hill to approximately 90’ offshore. The proposed request will result in moored vessels extending more than 100’ offshore, and as such the application requires a variance from Commission regulations.

I would like to express my support for the approval of this variance. This approval will improve the safe navigation in and out of the association docks and adjacent moorings. It also I believe it will be consistent with LGPC Regulation 646-1.1(c)(3) because it will not interfere with normal navigation or reasonable access to adjacent docks, moorings or lands.

We also agree that having extra distance between the docks and moorings can only help pulling in and out of the dock area. Thanks.

Dear Mr. Thouin, We are also writing in support of Mr. Tonn's application for a variance to extend the existing moorings at Carriage Hill to approximately 90’ offshore. As the owner/operator of a sailboat, we can attest to how challenging ingress and egress can be with the moorings in their current location. The situation is exacerbated due to larger motor boats travelling at higher than allowed speeds near or even in the demarcated no wake zone. Excessive wakes cause significant turbulence/high waves that create safety issues for Carriage Hill boats and every other vessel on the lake. The wakes from those larger motor boats cause the moored boats at Carriage Hill to be pushed toward the fixed docks and to sometimes swing rapidly/unexpectedly when we transit the mooring lines. The variance to move the moorings out would help to alleviate this issue and improve safety, though we would also love to see additional patrols and enforcement of the no wake zone speed limits so that everyone can more safely enjoy the lake.

Subject: RE: Carriage Hil Mooring

Mr. Thouin, I write to support my approval of this variance. Approval will not only improve the safety of navigation in and out of the association docks and adjacent moorings as has previously been noted, but is consistent will LGPC Regulation 646‐1.1(c)(3) in that it will not interfere with normal navigation or reasonable access to adjacent docks, moorings or lands. Thank you, Justin Clancy 10 Carriage Hill Road Diamond Point, NY 12824

The proposed request will result in moored vessels extending more than 100’ offshore, and as such the application requires a variance from Commission regulations. Please feel free to submit any comments to me by email. Thank you, and please take care. Respectfully yours, Joe

Cannot agree more!

Please know I think the dock extension would be a great improvement. It is tight and sometimes vision is obstructed when you’re pulling in and out. We have a number of young families and grandchildren on our boats. This would make for a safer exit & entry. Thank you for your consideration. Anne Trimble
