Hamburg Town Board Part 3 Analysis Briad Development Southwestern and Big Tree Rezoning 0 Big Tree Road and Southwestern Boulevard, Hamburg, NY 14219 (SBL#: 160.18-1-9.1) 4/13/2026 Based on Part 1 and Part 2 of the FEAF, information submitted by the Applicant, correspondence received, and discussions of the Planning Board and Town Board, the following potentially moderate to large impacts were identified, and have been analyzed: Project Description and Action See FEAF. 1.
