This notice is issued pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 617 of the implementing regulations pertaining to
Article 8 (State Environmental Quality Review Act – SEQRA) of the Environmental Conservation
Law. The Village of Mineola Board of Trustees, as lead agency, has determined, subsequent to
review of the Environmental Assessment Form (Parts 1, 2 and 3), consideration of other relevant
factors, and review of 6 NYCRR Part 617, that the proposed action described below will not have
a potential significant adverse effect on the environment.
Title of Action: Construction of a five (5) story mixed-used (62 units) multifamily residential
development currently known as “101-109 Main Street”.
SEQRA Status: Unlisted Action
Location: 101-109 Main Street (Northwest corner of Second Street and Main Street),
Village of Mineola, Nassau County, New York known and designated on the
Nassau County Land and Tax Map as Section 9, Block 419, Lots 229, 227, 223,
24 and 26.
Description of The Proposed Action involves an application for approval under the Village’s
Action: Historic Overlay District law (§550-15.3 of the Village Code), site plan approval,
and relaxation of certain dimensional requirements, as well as other approvals to
permit the development of a 0.54±-acre property located at the Northwest corner
of Second Street and Main Street, in the Village of Mineola, Nassau County, New
York (the “residential lot”). The purpose of the proposed action is to develop the
residential lot with a 62 unit multifamily residential mixed-use development. In
conformance with the Village Code, the applicant is providing community
benefits and amenities in accordance with Village requirements in terms
acceptable to both the applicant and the Village.
Reasons Supporting This Determination:
1. The proposed action has been evaluated in accordance with the Criteria for Determining
Significance as contained in SEQRA 6NYCRR Part 617.7 (c), and has been evaluated
through review of the following materials:
• Building Permit Application;
• Notice of Disapproval, dated February 13, 2025;
• Architectural Site Plans and Elevations for the proposed Multi-Family Building, prepared
by Combined Resources Consulting and Design Inc.;
• Property Survey, prepared by Jerry P. Larue, dated December 5, 2024
• Part 1 - Full Environmental Assessment Form with Attachments, dated February 5, 2025,
prepared by R&M Engineering;
• Traffic and Parking Assessment, February 6, 2025, prepared by R&M Engineering;
• Nassau County Planning Commission Resolution No.10608-25, adopted March 20, 2025.
2. The proposed action is not expected to cause any significant adverse environmental
impacts on the surrounding area. The existing conditions and considerations within the
Zoning District are briefly described below:
i. The Proposed Action would be consistent with other recently completed
multifamily residential buildings throughout the Village and takes advantage of
the areas potential to offer a vibrant, pedestrian oriented experience.as a whole.
5
ii. Long Island severely lacks multifamily housing options and has failed to meet
the current and anticipated housing demands. The lack of housing options
underscores the necessity to build higher-density and affordable housing
options.
iii. Under existing conditions, the Subject Property is vacant and underutilized. The
Proposed Action would improve the Subject Property with a modern
development that aligns with current needs for diversified housing options near
the LIRR station and walkable commercial corridors.
iv. The construction of the proposed residential multifamily building will further
the objectives of the comprehensive plan of the Village. The overall theme of
the Comprehensive Master Plan for the Village of Mineola (November 2005)
(Comprehensive Master Plan), prepared by the Mineola Community Planning
Committee with Phillips Preiss Shapiro Associates, Inc. is to build upon
Mineola’s strong sense of community among its residents. The Comprehensive
Master Plan envisions the Village as an even more desirable, safe and attractive
place to live and work and the Comprehensive Master Plan‘s strategy is to
protect what is best about Mineola while tapping the Village’s potential.
v. The reinvigoration of the vacant, underutilized property within the Village’s
newly created Historic Overlay District and the addition of 62 households
would add to the economic growth of Mineola and its surrounding
neighborhoods.
vi. The proposed project is an opportunity to continue to bring a positive
improvement to the Mineola community, including Second Street, while
simultaneously offering Long Island families diversified housing options and
shrinking the gap between housing demand and availability. Diversifying
housing options would help young families and older residents remain in the
place they have called home for years.
vii. The Proposed Action will not result in negative impacts on a significant habitat
area; It will not cause substantial adverse impacts on a threatened or endangered
species of animal or plant, or the habitat of such a species; or other significant
adverse impact to natural resources.
viii. The Proposed Action will not cause impairment of the character or quality of
important historical, archaeological, architectural, or aesthetic resources.
ix. The Proposed Action will not cause a major change in the use of either the
quantity or type of energy resources consumed.
x. The Proposed Action will not cause a change or significant adverse impact to
agricultural lands, open space or recreational resources.
3. The Board of Trustees finds that the documentation prepared is complete in addressing
potential adverse environmental impacts related to the proposed action and no significant
adverse environmental impacts have been identified. As a result, a Negative Declaration
is determined to be appropriate for this Proposed Action.

DATE OF HEARING: March 12, 2025
APPEARANCE: Kevin Walsh, Esq., Applicant’s Attorney
DP Builders, Inc. (hereinafter, “Applicant”) appeared before this Board pursuant to
Chapter 550, Section 550-15.3 of the Municipal Code of the Incorporated Village of Mineola (the
“Historic Overlay District law”) for a special use permit to construct a multifamily mixed-use
residential apartment building with 62 apartment units upon the property located at 101-109 Main
Street, Mineola, New York (known and designated on the Nassau County Land and Tax Map as
Section 9, Block 419, Lots 229, 227, 223, 24 and 26) (hereinafter, the “Property”). The proposed
residential building rises five stories and measures a total height to the top of the roof deck of
7
56’8” feet and a 6th story of amenity space with a total building height of 68’8” (excluding all
parapet walls, bulkheads and mechanicals required by New York State Uniform Building and Fire
Code). Forty-nine (49) of the apartment units are one-bedroom units and the remaining thirteen
(13) units are two-bedroom. Applicant is providing 85 on-site parking spaces.
Applicant seeks relaxation of the Village’s zoning regulations with respect to building
height, front yard setback, side yard setback, lot coverage percentage, minimum unit size, parking
and loading. Applicant was entitled to seek relief before the Zoning Board of Appeals for area
variances. In the alternative, Applicant was able to seek the same relief from the Board of Trustees
pursuant to Chapter 50, Section 550-13.3 under the Village’s Historic Overlay District law. This
latter course was elected by Applicant.
Applicant made an application to the Board of Trustees for the required relief pursuant to
the Village’s Historic Overlay District law and presented its application on March 12, 2025. The
Board of Trustees declared itself lead agency pursuant to SEQRA and determined that the
Application was an Unlisted Action. An expanded Environmental Assessment Form was prepared
by the Applicant. The Board of Trustees, after careful review of all relevant documents and
testimony, issued a Negative Declaration under SEQRA. This Board also assumed jurisdiction
over site plan and architectural review.
A referral of the Application was made to the Nassau County Planning Commission. The
Nassau County Planning Commission, by Resolution No. 10608-25, adopted March 20, 2025,
recommended that the Village Board of Trustees take whatever action it deemed appropriate.
Thus, now before this Board is a proposal to construct a five-story multifamily residential
apartment building on the northwest corner of Main Street and Second Street containing a total of
62 units (55 market rental units and 7 affordable housing units). In this connection, the Applicant
seeks, under the Village’s Development Incentive Bonus Law, the relaxation of the Village’s
zoning laws in several ways:
1. Building height;
2. Building setbacks;
3. Lot coverage percentage;
4. Minimum unit size;
5. Parking; and
6. Loading.
8
Applicant also seeks site plan approval for the revised site layout of the building and
architectural approval for the building design. In consideration of the Board’s approval of this
Special Use Permit, the Applicant has offered the following public amenities:
1. Substantial streetscape improvements creating pedestrian connectivity to the
Village’s downtown by the installation of pavers, lighting and other street
furnishings along street frontage of the Project on Main Street and Second Street.
2. The removal of overhead utility lines on the west side of Main Street directly
fronting the Project.
3. 7 units of affordable housing units distributed randomly throughout the building
with interior finishes to match market units.
4. PILOT payment for real estate taxes to be set by the Nassau County Industrial
Development Agency.
5. A Community Host Benefit Agreement to be executed by the Applicant to include
a schedule of payments negotiated with the Board of Trustees to compensate the
Village for hosting the Project.
6. A contribution to the Village’s Parking Trust Fund of $22,000.00.
7. A monetary contribution to the Village in lieu of further public amenities in the
amount of $620,000.00 to be distributed in the following manner:
a. $310,000.00 upon issuance of the building permit; and
b. $310,000.00 upon the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy/Temporary
Certificate of Occupancy.
FINDINGS
The Project as is proposed was contemplated by the Village’s Master Plan. It will
contribute to the vibrancy and the economic stability of the Village’s Downtown and, as a transit-
oriented development, it qualifies as a smart growth component of Mineola’s Downtown
Revitalization. Implementation of the proposed action will not create a material conflict with the
community’s current plans or goals. In fact, the overall theme of the Village of Mineola’s Com-
prehensive Master Plan is to build upon Mineola’s strong sense of community among its residents
and envisions the Village as an even more desirable, safe and attractive place to live and work.
The recommendations in the Comprehensive Master Plan seek to realize the Village’s full
potential, and the proposed residential rental buildings have been designed to help to achieve these
9
goals. The proposed project incorporates a use that will contribute to and strengthen the Village
in its downtown area.
DECISION
Based upon the above findings, it is hereby determined that the granting of the application
requesting a Special Use Permit pursuant to Section 550-13.3 of the Village Code for development
incentive bonuses according to which the Applicant offers certain community benefits and
amenities and payment in lieu thereof in exchange for the Board of Trustees granting relief from
certain zoning code regulations shall advance the Village’s specific physical, cultural and social
policies in accordance with the Village’s Comprehensive Master Plan and in coordination with
community planning mechanisms and land use techniques. Further, it is hereby determined that
the special use permit will provide a desirable facility to the area, will promote the revitalization
of the Village’s Downtown and will not be incongruous to the neighborhood by reason of excessive
traffic.
IT IS THEREFORE RESOLVED, as follows:
1) The Application for a Special Use Permit to construct and maintain a three and four story
multifamily residential apartment buildings containing a total of 62 apartment units (55
market rental units and 7 affordable units) upon the Property is GRANTED.
2) The request to provide 85 on-site parking spaces is GRANTED.

ALL OF THESE ENUMERATED GRANTS AND APPROVALS ARE CONDITIONED
UPON THE FOLLOWING:
1) The payment by the Applicant to the Village for development incentive bonuses awarded
in the amount of Six Hundred Twenty Thousand ($620,000.00) Dollars pursuant to the
schedule set forth above in this Decision.
2) The payment by the Applicant to the Village to the Village’s Parking Trust Fund in the
amount of Twenty-Two Thousand ($22,000.00) upon the issuance of the building permit.
3) The failure to make a required payment shall authorize the Village, in addition to all other
legal remedies, to place the outstanding accelerated payment amount on the tax bill for the
Property and such shall be a lien upon the Property. The election of any remedy shall not
preclude the Village from pursuing any other legal remedy.
4) Compliance with the Long Island Workforce Housing Law, including the provision of 7
units of affordable housing of a quality and location within the building equal to that of the
market rate units. The affordable workforce housing units shall represent the distribution
of apartments in the buildings and be distributed randomly throughout the building. For
purposes of this Decision, “affordable workforce housing” means housing for individuals
and families at or below 120% of the median income for the Nassau-Suffolk primary
metropolitan statistical area as defined by the federal Department of Housing and Urban
Development (www.huduser.gov). Rent, including utilities, for each affordable workforce
housing unit shall be no more than 30% of that household’s income. Affordable workforce
housing units shall be of consistent design to those of the rest of the development. The
applicant and its successors shall annually submit a certification to the Village that it is in
compliance with this requirement. Each applicant is required to engage in affirmative
marketing to ensure outreach to racially and ethnically diverse households, including those
who are least likely to apply. The applicant shall enter into a contract with a local housing
group to administer the affordability of the housing units, and to monitor the rental of all
units for compliance with the Village Code and New York State laws. This condition shall
not in any way relieve applicant of its requirement to comply with other applicable
provisions of the New York State General Municipal Law § 699-b.
11
5) Applicant shall cause all refuse to be removed from the premises by a private carter at
Applicant’s expense.
6) Streetscape improvements on Main Street and Second Street in front of the Property in
accordance with Village requirements. Street Lighting Improvements shall generally
conform with the Village’s existing decorative pole and luminaire style, and all luminaires
shall be energy saving Light Emitting Diode (LED) luminaires. A separate street lighting
installation, wiring and photometric plan shall be provided to the Department of Public
Works and the Village’s Engineers for review and approval prior to any construction or
installation.
7) Each apartment unit shall be assigned one designated parking space for which no fee shall
be charged. Landlord shall not offer a discount to any tenant who elects not to retain his/her
assigned parking space.
8) Applicant shall repair any damage to any Village roads caused by Applicant during the
course of construction in accordance with Village requirements.
9) Applicant shall comply with the Village’s Stormwater Management Plan and in the event
that its construction activities shall cause the redirection of underground water flow such
that it impacts any adjoining property, Applicant shall be responsible for remedying such
condition.
10) With regard to letters of Water Availability and/or Sanitary Sewer Availability, in the
event it is determined that the Village’s existing water supply capacity, water distribution
system capacity and/or sanitary sewer collection system capacity is insufficient to service
the Applicant’s demands for required domestic water supply, fire service water supply and
sanitary sewer demands, the Applicant agrees to make the necessary infrastructure
improvements, at their cost, as required by the Village Department of Public Works and
the Village’s Engineers.
11) When constructing domestic water, fire service connections and sanitary sewer
connections, the Applicant shall comply with all requirements of the County of Nassau
Department of Health, the Village’s Department of Public Works Water and Sewer
Division or as directed by the Superintendent of Public Works.
12) In the event that Applicant seeks IDA financing, the PILOT shall be for a maximum of 20
years and Applicant shall not seek a longer extension at a later time from the IDA.
12
13) The Applicant shall be required to execute and deliver to the Village a Host Community
Benefit Agreement in the form attached to this Decision as Exhibit A.
14) Applicant shall acknowledge that the conditions set forth in this Decision are reasonable,
fair and equitable. In the event that any legal action or proceeding shall be instituted by
the Village in order to enforce any condition herein, the Village shall be entitled to an
award of attorney’s fees in the event that it shall prevail in any such action or proceeding.
All terms, conditions and obligations contained in this Decision shall be binding upon the
Applicant, its heirs, successors and assigns.
15) The representations made by Applicant on the record in this proceeding have been deemed
material to this Application and have been relied upon by the Board of Trustees in its
deliberations and decisions. Said representations are deemed to be part of the conditions
of this special use permit.
16) Violation of a condition set forth in this Decision shall be deemed a violation of the Mineola
Municipal Code and shall subject the owner or occupant of the premises to all penalties set
forth in the Mineola Municipal Code.
All of the terms, conditions and obligations contained in this Decision shall be binding
upon the Applicant, its heirs, successors and assigns.
This constitutes the Decision of the Board of Trustees. Applicant shall, within ten (10)
days of the date of filing of this Decision, consent in writing to the conditions contained herein.
Failure to so consent shall render this Decision null and void.

COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS
SECTION 2.0 GUARANTEED HOST COMMUNITY BENEFIT PAYMENTS
A. Agreement to Make Payments. Company agrees that it shall make guaranteed annual
payments to the Village in the amounts hereinafter provided. The parties agree that the obligation of Company
to make the guaranteed payments hereunder shall be in addition to the Payments In Lieu Of Taxes (PILOT)
to be made by Company to the Agency and shall constitute a separate and binding obligation by Company
to the Village.
B. Amount of Guaranteed Host Community Benefit Payments. Annual guaranteed
payments shall be paid by Company to the Village commencing in the first year in which a Payment In Lieu
of Taxes shall be made to the Agency, as follows:
Annual payments by the Company to the Village shall be made pursuant to the following formula:
Assessed value of the Project Property x 100% of applicable Village tax rate (the “Otherwise
Applicable Village Taxes”) – amount of Payment in Lieu of Taxes delivered to the Agency for the
benefit of the Village in that calendar year. For the purpose of this Host Community Benefits
Agreement, the Company reserves its right to challenge the Assessed Valuation in a tax certiorari
proceeding venued in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau.
C. Time of Payments. Company agrees to pay the annual amounts due to the Village under
Section 2.0(B) within thirty (30) days after the Village provides an invoice to the Company indicating the then-
current Otherwise Applicable Village Taxes, the amount of then-current PILOT payments received by the
Village from the Agency, and the amount of the difference between them. Guaranteed Host Community
Benefit Payments shall be due in all years in which the PILOT is applicable.
SECTION 2.1 LATE PAYMENTS
If Company shall fail to make any payment required by this Agreement when due and such
delinquency shall continue beyond fifteen (15) days after written notice from the Village to the Company, the
amount overdue shall accrue interest at an annual rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate plus two (2)
15
percentage points or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is less, which shall be
immediately due and payable from Company to the Village. Company’s obligation to make the payment so
in default shall continue until such payment has been made in full. “Prime Rate” shall mean, for any date, the
fluctuating rate of interest that is equal to the highest rate published from time to time in the Money Rates
section of the Wall Street Journal as the Prime Rate for such day.
SECTION 3.0 CONSIDERATION
In consideration of Company’s payments to the Village under this Agreement, and in light of the
extensive regulatory review and approvals undertaken and received relative to the Project; the public benefit
of the Project; and the Village’s familiarity with the impact of the Project upon the Village and its residents,
the Village agrees to the following:
A. To provide written support of the Project and the proposed Payment in Lieu of Taxes
Agreement to the Agency; and
B. To refrain and forebear from challenging, in any administrative or judicial tribunal,
any of the agreements, permits or certificates relating to the construction, financing
and operation of the Project including, but not limited to, the Payment in Lieu of
Taxes Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or
Section shall prohibit or limit the Village, or its agents or agencies, and/or the Fire
Marshal, from any and all actions to carry out their duties to enforce any applicable
Federal/State/County/Village law, code, rule or regulation.
EVENT OF DEFAULT
SECTION 4.0 EVENT OF COMPANY DEFAULT
Any one or more of the following events, following applicable notice, grace and cure periods, shall
constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”) by Company under this Agreement:
(A) A failure by Company to pay when due any amount due and payable pursuant to this Agreement,
continued for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice is sent by the Village or its representative stating
that such payment is due and payable;
(B) A failure by Company to observe and perform any other covenant, condition or agreement on its
part to be observed and performed hereunder and continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days
after written notice is sent specifying the nature of such failure or, if such failure is capable of cure but cannot
be cured within such thirty (30) day period, the failure of Company to proceed with reasonable diligence after
receipt of said notice to cure the same or the failure of Company to continue with reasonable diligence its
efforts to cure the same;
(C) Any warranty, representation or other statement by or on behalf of Company contained in this
Agreement shall prove to have been false or incorrect in any material respect as of the effective date of this
Agreement and, if such matter is curable, it has not been cured within thirty (30) days after the receipt of
written notice thereof by Company from the Village.
SECTION 5.0 REMEDIES UPON COMPANY DEFAULT
(A) Upon an Event of Default as set forth in Section 4.0 herein, the Village may take whatever action
at law or in equity appears necessary or desirable to collect the amount then in default or to enforce the
performance and obligations, agreements, and covenants of Company under this Agreement. The Village
may also notify the Agency of Company’s Event of Default.
(B) Each Event of Default shall give rise to a separate cause of action hereunder and separate suits
may be brought hereunder as each cause of action accrues.
(C) Company irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York State court sitting in Nassau
County over any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and Company hereby
irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in
such New York State court. Company irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such
action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to Company at its address set forth below.
16
Company agrees that a final non-appealable judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive
and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Company further waives any objection to venue in such county and any objection to an action or proceeding
in such county on the basis of forum non conveniens. Company further agrees that any action or proceeding
brought against the Village shall be brought only in a New York State court sitting in Nassau County.
Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of the Village to serve legal process in any other manner
permitted by law or affect the right of Village to bring any action or proceeding against Company or its property
in the courts of any other jurisdictions.
SECTION 5.1 PAYMENT OF ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES
If, following an Event of Default by the Company, the Village should undertake efforts or incur other
expenses for the collection of any amounts payable hereunder or for the enforcement of performance or
observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement on the part of Company herein contained, Company
shall be liable to the Village for the amount due hereunder, together with late payment interest due thereon,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and all other reasonable expenses, costs and disbursements
incurred by the Village in connection with such efforts, provided that the Village shall have prevailed.
SECTION 5.2 REMEDIES UPON VILLAGE DEFAULT
(A) General. In the event that the Village shall fail to observe and perform any of the covenants,
conditions or agreements on its part to be observed and performed under Sections 1.0 and 3.0 hereunder
(each such event being referred to as a “Village Default”) and the continuance of such failure for a period of
thirty (30) days after the Village’s receipt of notice specifying the nature of such failure and requesting that it
be remedied, Company may take whatever action at law or in equity as may be necessary or desirable to
enforce the performance and observance of such obligations, agreements and covenants of the Village under
this Agreement.
(B) Separate Suits. Each such Village Default shall give rise to a separate cause of action hereunder
and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises.
(C) If, following an Event of Default by the Village, the Company should undertake efforts or incur
other expenses for the successful enforcement of performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or
agreement on the part of the Village herein contained, the Village shall be liable to Company for reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and all other reasonable expenses, costs and disbursements incurred by
Company in connection with such efforts, provided that the Company shall have prevailed.
SECTION 6.0 REMEDIES; WAIVER AND NOTICE
(A) No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Village or
Company is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such
remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
(B) Delay. No delay or omission in exercising any right or power accruing upon the occurrence
of any Company default or Village default hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed
to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may
be deemed expedient.
(C) Notice Not Required. In order to entitle the Village or Company to exercise any remedy
reserved to it in this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may
be expressly required in this Agreement.
(D) No Waiver. In the event any provision contained in this Agreement should be breached by
any party and thereafter duly waived by the other party so empowered to act, such waiver shall be limited to
the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach hereunder. No
waiver, amendment, release or modification of this Agreement shall be established by conduct, custom or
