Project :
Part 2 - Identification of Potential Project Impacts Date : 10-19-26
Part 2 is to be completed by the lead agency. Part 2 is designed to help the lead agency inventory all potential resources that could
be affected by a proposed project or action. We recognize that the lead agency=s reviewer(s) will not necessarily be environmental
professionals. So, the questions are designed to walk a reviewer through the assessment process by providing a series of questions that
can be answered using the information found in Part 1. To further assist the lead agency in completing Part 2, the form identifies the
most relevant questions in Part 1 that will provide the information needed to answer the Part 2 question. When Part 2 is completed, the
lead agency will have identified the relevant environmental areas that may be impacted by the proposed activity.
If the lead agency is a state agency and the action is in any Coastal Area, complete the Coastal Assessment Form before proceeding
with this assessment.
Tips for completing Part 2:
Review all of the information provided in Part 1.
Review any application, maps, supporting materials and the Full EAF Workbook.
Answer each of the 18 questions in Part 2.
If you answer “Yes” to a numbered question, please complete all the questions that follow in that section.
If you answer “No” to a numbered question, move on to the next numbered question.
Check appropriate column to indicate the anticipated size of the impact.
Proposed projects that would exceed a numeric threshold contained in a question should result in the reviewing agency
checking the box “Moderate to large impact may occur.”
The reviewer is not expected to be an expert in environmental analysis.
If you are not sure or undecided about the size of an impact, it may help to review the sub-questions for the general
question and consult the workbook.
When answering a question consider all components of the proposed activity, that is, the whole action.
Consider the possibility for long-term and cumulative impacts as well as direct impacts.
Answer the question in a reasonable manner considering the scale and context of the project.

Full Environmental Assessment Form
Part 3 - Evaluation of the Magnitude and Importance of Project Impacts
and
Determination of Significance
Part 3 provides the reasons in support of the determination of significance. The lead agency must complete Part 3 for every question
in Part 2 where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where there is a need to explain why a particular
element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse environmental impact.
Based on the analysis in Part 3, the lead agency must decide whether to require an environmental impact statement to further assess
the proposed action or whether available information is sufficient for the lead agency to conclude the proposed action will not have
a significant adverse environmental impact. By completing the certification on the next page, the lead agency can complete its
determination of significance.
Reasons Supporting This Determination:
To complete this section:
• Identify the impact based on the Part 2 responses and describe its magnitude. Magnitude considers factors such as severity,
size, or extent of an impact.
• Assess the importance of the impact. Importance relates to the geographic scope, duration, probability of the impact
occurring, number of people affected by the impact, and any additional environmental consequences if the impact were to
occur.
• The assessment should take into consideration any design element or project changes.
• Repeat this process for each Part 2 question where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where
there is a need to explain why a particular element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse
environmental impact.
• Provide the reason(s) why the impact may, or will not, result in a significant adverse environmental impact.
• For Conditional Negative Declarations identify the specific condition(s) imposed that will modify the proposed action so that
no significant adverse environmental impacts will result.
• Attach additional sheets, as needed.
The adoption of the Highmark Corner Community Destination Concepts involves an amendment to the
Comprehensive Plan that will produce additional community destination concepts for Highmark
Stadium, and the surrounding area in the Town of Hamburg to add to the Town’s Comprehensive
Plan, and will not include any development or construction.

Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF, as noted, plus this additional support information
and considering both the magnitude and importance of each identified potential impact, it is the conclusion of the
Hamburg Town Board as lead agency that:
✔ A. This project will result in no significant adverse impacts on the environment, and, therefore, an environmental impact
statement need not be prepared. Accordingly, this negative declaration is issued.
B. Although this project could have a significant adverse impact on the environment, that impact will be avoided or
substantially mitigated because of the following conditions that will be required by the lead agency:
There will, therefore, be no significant adverse impacts from the project as conditioned, and, therefore, this conditioned negative
declaration is issued. A conditioned negative declaration may be used only for UNLISTED actions (see 6 NYCRR 617.7(d)).
C. This Project may result in one or more significant adverse impacts on the environment and an environmental impact
statement must be prepared to further assess the impact(s) and possible mitigation and to explore alternatives to avoid or reduce those
impacts. Accordingly, this positive declaration is issued.

Project :
Part 2 - Identification of Potential Project Impacts Date : 10-19-26
Part 2 is to be completed by the lead agency. Part 2 is designed to help the lead agency inventory all potential resources that could
be affected by a proposed project or action. We recognize that the lead agency=s reviewer(s) will not necessarily be environmental
professionals. So, the questions are designed to walk a reviewer through the assessment process by providing a series of questions that
can be answered using the information found in Part 1. To further assist the lead agency in completing Part 2, the form identifies the
most relevant questions in Part 1 that will provide the information needed to answer the Part 2 question. When Part 2 is completed, the
lead agency will have identified the relevant environmental areas that may be impacted by the proposed activity.
If the lead agency is a state agency and the action is in any Coastal Area, complete the Coastal Assessment Form before proceeding
with this assessment.
Tips for completing Part 2:
Review all of the information provided in Part 1.
Review any application, maps, supporting materials and the Full EAF Workbook.
Answer each of the 18 questions in Part 2.
If you answer “Yes” to a numbered question, please complete all the questions that follow in that section.
If you answer “No” to a numbered question, move on to the next numbered question.
Check appropriate column to indicate the anticipated size of the impact.
Proposed projects that would exceed a numeric threshold contained in a question should result in the reviewing agency
checking the box “Moderate to large impact may occur.”
The reviewer is not expected to be an expert in environmental analysis.
If you are not sure or undecided about the size of an impact, it may help to review the sub-questions for the general
question and consult the workbook.
When answering a question consider all components of the proposed activity, that is, the whole action.
Consider the possibility for long-term and cumulative impacts as well as direct impacts.
Answer the question in a reasonable manner considering the scale and context of the project.

Full Environmental Assessment Form
Part 3 - Evaluation of the Magnitude and Importance of Project Impacts
and
Determination of Significance
Part 3 provides the reasons in support of the determination of significance. The lead agency must complete Part 3 for every question
in Part 2 where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where there is a need to explain why a particular
element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse environmental impact.
Based on the analysis in Part 3, the lead agency must decide whether to require an environmental impact statement to further assess
the proposed action or whether available information is sufficient for the lead agency to conclude the proposed action will not have
a significant adverse environmental impact. By completing the certification on the next page, the lead agency can complete its
determination of significance.
Reasons Supporting This Determination:
To complete this section:
• Identify the impact based on the Part 2 responses and describe its magnitude. Magnitude considers factors such as severity,
size, or extent of an impact.
• Assess the importance of the impact. Importance relates to the geographic scope, duration, probability of the impact
occurring, number of people affected by the impact, and any additional environmental consequences if the impact were to
occur.
• The assessment should take into consideration any design element or project changes.
• Repeat this process for each Part 2 question where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where
there is a need to explain why a particular element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse
environmental impact.
• Provide the reason(s) why the impact may, or will not, result in a significant adverse environmental impact.
• For Conditional Negative Declarations identify the specific condition(s) imposed that will modify the proposed action so that
no significant adverse environmental impacts will result.
• Attach additional sheets, as needed.
The adoption of the Town of Hamburg Short-Term Rental Law is not anticipated to have any
significant environmental impacts, as the action involves a new local law that will establish
comprehensive registration and licensing regulations to safeguard the public health, safety and
welfare by regulating and controlling the use, occupancy, oversight and maintenance of short-term
rental properties, and will not include any development or construction.

Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF, as noted, plus this additional support information
and considering both the magnitude and importance of each identified potential impact, it is the conclusion of the
Hamburg Town Board as lead agency that:
✔ A. This project will result in no significant adverse impacts on the environment, and, therefore, an environmental impact
statement need not be prepared. Accordingly, this negative declaration is issued.
B. Although this project could have a significant adverse impact on the environment, that impact will be avoided or
substantially mitigated because of the following conditions that will be required by the lead agency:
There will, therefore, be no significant adverse impacts from the project as conditioned, and, therefore, this conditioned negative
declaration is issued. A conditioned negative declaration may be used only for UNLISTED actions (see 6 NYCRR 617.7(d)).
C. This Project may result in one or more significant adverse impacts on the environment and an environmental impact
statement must be prepared to further assess the impact(s) and possible mitigation and to explore alternatives to avoid or reduce those
impacts. Accordingly, this positive declaration is issued.

3) Unless noted otherwise, the customer understands and acknowledges that all quoted manufacturing and delivery schedules are estimates only and are not guaranteed.
Such schedules are subject to change due to delays in obtaining customer’s final approval of drawings and/or purchase authorization. Unforeseen events may also cause
changes in such schedules. These events include but are not limited to customer change orders, account payment status matters, component material lead times,
disruptions due to weather, workforce matters, etc. Kistner Concrete will not be held responsible for schedule changes resulting from such events.
4) If the customer’s account is determined to be “in default”, Kistner Concrete may, at its discretion, suspend or restrict further manufacture or delivery of orders pending or
in production. If Kistner Concrete takes such action, the customer understands and acknowledges that any subsequent resumption of production or delivery activities is
subject to, and dependent upon, scheduling availability at that point in time. Customer understands and agrees to defend and hold Kistner Concrete harmless for any
adverse actions by any parties that may result from such suspension of manufacture or delivery.
5) Customer agrees to provide reasonable site access and traffic control or other personnel to assist when Kistner trucks must unload while parked on or near roadways,
or in high activity locations. Customer will be responsible for excess delivery charges if site conditions warrant such assistance and personnel are not available to assist or
if driver is otherwise delayed in unloading product beyond allotted time.

work in a “good faith” manner to negotiate a mutually acceptable resolution of the issue. The customer agrees to notify Kistner Concrete of any non-negotiable P.O. terms

A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION AND SERVICES
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or
national origin in programs and activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Specifically,
Title VI provides that "no person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or
national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to
discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”
Subrecipients of public transportation funding from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), are
required to develop policies, programs, and practices that ensure that federal and state transit
dollars are used in a manner that is nondiscriminatory. Town of Hamburg is a subrecipient of
FTA financial assistance through a grant from NYSDOT. This Title VI plan details how Town of
Hamburg incorporates nondiscrimination policies and practices in providing transit services to
the ridership we serve.
Town of Hamburg operates transportation services out of its senior center. Town of Hamburg is
a municipality who receives program funds from municipal general funds. Town of Hamburg
also receives FTA Section 5310 funding through NYSDOT to acquire transit vehicles. Town of
Hamburg provides transportation for older adults aged 55 and over as well as individuals of any
age with a qualifying disability, Services are oriented to the senior center but are also operated
to medical appointments, personal business, and other activities. Riders must be a resident of
Town of Hamburg and pay a nominal fee each way.

B5. Public Involvement Process
Strategies and Desired Outcomes
This section describes how Town of Hamburg disseminates vital agency information and
engages the public in the transit service decision-making process. We seek out and consider
the input and needs of interested parties and groups traditionally underserved by transportation
systems. These groups may face challenges accessing our services, such as minority and
limited English proficient (LEP) persons. Underlying these efforts is our commitment to
determining the most effective public involvement methods for a given project or population.
Public Outreach Activities
In efforts to involve minority and limited English proficient (LEP) populations in the planning
process and to address linguistic, institutional, cultural, economic, historical, or other barriers
that may prevent minority and LEP persons from effectively participating in Town of Hamburg’s
decision-making process, Town of Hamburg implements early, frequent and continuous
engagement for public involvement. The engagement methods include and are not limited to:
1. Posting public involvement notifications on transit vehicles, Town of Hamburg building,
and on the Town of Hamburg website.
2. Public meetings will be conducted at times, locations, and facilities that are convenient
and accessible.
3. Meeting materials will be available in a variety of predetermined formats and language(s)
to serve diverse audiences.
4. Provide professional interpreters in the language(s) spoken by the targeted LEP
population(s).
The determination of how specific public participation activities should take place, and which
specific measures are most appropriate is based on the following:
• A demographic analysis of the persons serves and/or are eligible to receive services.
• The type of transportation program and/or service provided.
• The resources available for public outreach.
Summary on Public Involvement Activity
Since the last Title VI plan update, Town of Hamburg conducted the following public
involvement outreach (emails, website posting, media outlets, in-person, virtual) sessions:

Page 182
B6. Language Assistance Plan
To comply with the FTA Title VI requirement on nondiscrimination based on national origin, as it
affects limited English proficient (LEP) persons, Town of Hamburg will take reasonable steps to
ensure meaningful access to our programs and activities by persons for whom English is not
their primary language and who have a limited ability to read, write, speak, or understand
English.
The Language Assistance Plan for Town of Hamburg is based on a Four Factor Analysis that
describes the demographic characteristics of our service area, the frequency with which riders
use our services, and the importance of our transportation services. These three factors identify
the need for language assistance and are balanced with a fourth factor, that of the available
resources with which to provide language assistance to result in an assistance plan to address
the identified needs of the LEP population(s) served.
The Town of Hamburg is a small agency serving a limited number of clients who are well
known and maintains a registration list of clients, can use that internal data on clients to determine
language assistance needs. This data can also document how language assistance needs change
as clients change. Language assistance needs should be evaluated regularly. This can be as
simple as listing all the clients, where appropriate, and noting their language needs including the
language spoken, requirements for interpreters or other assistance, and perhaps impairments to
hearing.
LEP Four Factor Analysis
To determine what the specific languages are spoken in our transit service area and to
determine what language services are appropriate for the LEP population, the Town of
Hamburg has conducted a Four Factor Analysis 1: (1) Demography, (2) Frequency,
(3) Importance, and (4) Resources and costs.
1. Demography: A number or proportion of the LEP population(s) specifically served or
that could be served by Town of Hamburg transit service.
2. The frequency with which LEP persons come into contact with Town of Hamburg.
3. The nature and importance of Town of Hamburg transit services to LEP population(s).
4. The resources available for LEP outreach and how employees are trained to provide
language assistance to LEP persons.
Our analysis is based on:
- internal client registration data for our transportation services.
Factor 1–Demography | Number or proportion of the LEP population(s), specifically served or
could be served by Town of Hamburg transit service.
1 DOT LEP guidance https://www.transportation.gov/civil-rights/civil-rights-awareness-enforcement/dots-
lep-guidance
Town of Hamburg Title VI Plan Page 10 Open-Door Services
182
Page 183
We examined our transit services and our experiences with LEP individuals who specifically
use our transit services to determine the breadth and scope of the LEP preferred language
services that were needed in providing the specific transit services.
• Fewer than 1,000 persons and less than 5% of eligible population: No specific written
translation requirement (though oral interpretation must still be provided upon request).
Town of Hamburg clients and potential clients are primarily older adults and individuals with
disabilities. When our clients register for our transportation services, they provide
information such as address, emergency contact, and mobility aids used (e.g., canes,
walkers, or wheelchairs). As part of the registration process any language assistance needs
are identified, along with any impairments which may affect the ability to hear spoken
language.
Factor 2–Frequency | Frequency with which LEP people come in contact with Town of
Hamburg
The Town of Hamburg’s services are critical to the lives of its clients, enabling them to
participate as fully as possible in the community, interact and socialize with others, and
carry out the activities of daily living. The Town of Hamburg has taken positive steps at the
intake process to identify non-English speaking clients with whom we have regular contact.
Therefore, the Town of Hamburg has staff available to provide oral interpretation as needed
thus ensuring the importance of our client services be communicated to all clients in a
language other than English. If there is ever a language barrier dispatch will forward the
person to our personnel department.
Since the last Title VI plan update, Town of Hamburg has found that our existing language
support meets the needs of our clientele.
Factor 3–Importance | Importance of the service to clients who need language assistance
The Town of Hamburg’s services are critical to the lives of its clients, enabling them to
participate as fully as possible in the community, interact and socialize with others, and
carry out the activities of daily living. The Town of Hamburg has taken positive steps at the
intake process to identify non-English speaking clients and their parents or guardians with
whom we have regular contact.
Therefore, the Town of Hamburg has staff available to provide oral interpretation as needed
thus ensuring the importance of our client services be communicated to all clients in a
language other than English.
Since the last Title VI plan update, Town of Hamburg has found that our existing language
supports meet the needs of our clientele.
Factor 4–Resources and Costs | Resources available and costs
To meet the language assistance needs of our Town of Hamburg LEP population, Town of
Hamburg utilizes readily available resources and works to strengthen our partnership with
other organizations our riders engage with. Some of those readily available resources may
include the inclusion of Google translate toolbar to our website, tablets, and computers, by
calling personnel, and the NY Office on Aging Services language assistance tools. To
supplement these resources, Town of Hamburg may also retain the services of an
Town of Hamburg Title VI Plan Page 11 Open-Door Services
183
Page 184
interpreter, translate vital documents, and utilize community volunteers. After analyzing the
Town of Hamburg budget and reviewing available resources, cost associated to meet
language assistance needs of the LEP population at 5% or greater will be incurred for
translating vital documents. For languages that do not meet the 5% threshold, the cost of
interpretive services will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Results of the Four Factor Analysis
As a result of the four-factor analysis, a written Language Assistance Plan is not required.
However, reasonable attempts will be made to accommodate any persons encountered who
require written translation or oral interpretation services. Our agency will do this at no cost to the
program clientele. Further, we will work with other agencies to identify resources that will
effectively meet the needs of LEP individuals.
During the registration process, Town of Hamburg is able to identify non-English speaking
clients with whom we have frequent contact; and therefore, have language assistance tools or
staff available to provide oral interpretation.
Training Employees to Provide Language Assistance
Town of Hamburg employees are oriented on the principles of Title VI and language assistance
at hire and when the Title VI plan is updated. New employees will be provided guidance on the
needs of clients served and how best to meet their language needs. Training will include review
of the following Title VI program components:
1. Title VI Notice to the Public
2. Title VI complaint procedures and form
3. Complaint log
4. LEP and Language Assistance Plan
If an employee needs further assistance related to LEP individuals, they will work with the Town
of Hamburg’s Title VI Coordinator to identify strategies to meet the language needs of the
participants of the program or service.
B7. Minority Representation on Advisory Boards
Town of Hamburg has no transit-related, non-elected committees or advisory councils.
B8. Recordkeeping and Reporting
Town of Hamburg maintains records related to the agency’s implementation of Title VI program,
including records of the Title VI Plan adoption and approval (see section B5), records of Title VI
staff training, public involvement activities, complaints, investigations, language assistance
services and other implementation activities.
Town of Hamburg shall update the Title VI Plan, every three years and submit the plan to the
New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) for approval.
B9. Plan and Policy Review
The Title VI policy will be disseminated to employees through training at new employee
orientation and every time the plan is updated. The Town of Hamburg will review its Title VI Plan
at least once every three years to determine if modifications are necessary. The Town of
Hamburg directly operates and will review implementation annually to ensure compliance with
Title VI Plan requirements. The agency’s review includes verifying that all employees have
Town of Hamburg Title VI Plan Page 12 Open-Door Services
184
Page 185
received ongoing updates, training, and a copy of the Title VI policies and that all postings are in
place and in good condition.
Program Monitoring
The Town of Hamburg will monitor the effectiveness of the Title VI program through the
feedback from clientele, employees, general public and other agencies (NYSDOT, FTA). Town
of Hamburg seeks opportunities to continuously improve its Title VI plan, public participation
outreach efforts and providing meaningful access of our services to LEP individuals.
B10. Facility Location Equity Analysis
As a subrecipient of federal funds, Town of Hamburg understands we are required to conduct a
Title VI equity analysis when planning to acquire land to construct a new transportation facility or
expand an existing transportation facility to ensure the location is selected without regard to
race, color, or national origin. The facility includes storage facilities, maintenance facilities, and
operations centers, but it does not include bus shelters, transit stations, or power substations.
The equity analysis requirement applies even to land acquired to construct a new facility that do
not receive direct federal funding (as long as Town of Hamburg receives federal financial
assistance, Title VI requirements apply to all programs and activities). The equity analysis
compares the equity impacts of various siting alternatives and must occur during the planning
phase, prior to the selection of the preferred site, and must include the following:
1. A description of the outreach to persons potentially impacted.
2. A comparison of equity impacts of various siting alternatives.
3. An analysis about whether a disparate impact occurs on the basis of race, color or
national origin (including potential cumulative adverse impacts from other facilities with
similar impacts in the area) because of the location and construction of a facility. (If there
is a disparate impact, the construction of the facility may only occur if there is a
substantial legitimate justification, there are no alternative locations that would have a
less disparate impact, and it is not a pretext for discrimination).
For any land acquired to construct a new facility Town of Hamburg will work with NYSDOT to
ensure that the equity analysis is completed and submitted to NYSDOT. The equity analysis will
be provided upon request to NYSDOT, FTA and during the triennial review.
The below is intended to provide direction to the reader as to whether Town of Hamburg was
