This document is the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the proposed Knolls of Dover project. It has been posted pursuant to Dover Town Law 61-4 and the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA).  SEQRA requires that the Town Board "afford agencies and the public a reasonable time period (not less than 10 calendar days) in which to consider the final EIS before issuing its written findings statement" (6 NYCRR 617.11(a)). Public Hearing Scheduled The Town Board has scheduled a combined Public Hearing on the FEIS and the proposed Master Development Plan, Design Guidelines, and Zoning amendments for the Knolls of Dover project for Wednesday, March 24, 2010, at 6:30 PM at the Dover Middle School Auditorium located at 2368 Route 22, Dover Plains, New York.  Written comments on the FEIS and proposed zoning text amendments will be accepted until March 31, 2010, and should be addressed to the Town Board, Town of Dover Town Hall, 126 East Duncan Hill Road, Dover Plains, NY 12522.

SEQRA Findings The findings statement represents the final step in the SEQRA process and details the Town Board's rationale for action on the project. The findings statement must "consider the relevant environmental impacts, facts and conclusions" and "weigh and balance relevant environmental impacts with social, economic and other considerations" (6 NYCRR 617.11(d)).  Upon adoption of a findings statement, the Town Board would make a determination on the proposed Zoning amendments and various local actions required for the project.
