1.0  INTRODUCTION

Home Leasing is intending to re-develop an 11.7-acre parcel in the Town of West Seneca into 75
affordable family housing units. The project will include repurposing the existing mansion on site and
proposing a new 3-story building for offices, amenities and residential use.

As part of the Homes and Community Renewal (HCR) and Housing Finance Agency (HFA) approval
process, Home Leasing needs to obtain a “Will Serve” letter from all utilities including electric. The
purpose of this report is to provide an evaluation of the existing electric lines in the immediate
vicinity of the project site and to provide a reasonable cost estimate of the service connection or the
required upgrades the project will need.

All information contained in this report, including existing electrical circuit and rating information is
based on publicly available information and not from any coordination with NYSEG/RGE. LaBella
gives no warranty, express or implied, as to accuracy, description, quality, fitness for any particular
purpose, or any other matter, of the evaluations and estimates contained in this report that are
based on the publicly available information of NYSEG/RGE and others.
