He pointed out the aea.s of the bluff that are stable and those that are crtical. Mr. Cichanowicz mentioned plantings which would. be brought in ie. black pines, small beach plums, spartina and rosa ragusa. Mr. Cichanowicz eestimated that it would cost between $75,000 and $90,000 to stabilize the slopes.Mr. Cichanowicz stated that most of these plants are on the site and they will be planted in the crevases and areas that are very heaviliy washed out.. Mr. Cichanowicz also noted that additional plantings will be required to inhibit pedestrian traffic .on the bluff. The slope will be l on 6 from the building units to the drainage areas. The pond areas will be planted with bayberry, briches, and beach plum to impede people from, going down to .the ponds and for aesthetics.

Planning .Board Page 3 12/2/85 Breakers at Island End cont. - Mr. Hyman explained the plans show the drainage calculations and drainage profiles, however, no sanitary was shown because as of yesterday, .no one knew who would be doing the sewage the Village of Greenport of the developers. Mr. Ward questioned who would be doing it. Mr. Raynor stated that they were in a position to have the Village of Greenport approve the contracts. Mr. Orlowski stated that the Board was investigating the .possiblity of getting an engineer to review the plans and will know by tomorrow about hiring someone. Mr. Raynor requested that the Board refer the site plan to the. Building Department for certification since amendements had been made since the first certification.

Mr. Raynor stated that if it is a condition of approval, it will be paid .prior to getting a building permit.- Mr. ermit.Mr. Mullen stated that the problem .is the time frame since a bond runs for three years and the project will probably take any where from five to six years to complete.

Mr. Hyman stated that the ponds will contain stormwater and if the Board has any ideas regarding this, they would take that into consideration. Mr. Emilita questioned if ,the roads would be maintained by an association. - Mr. Hyman stated that the roads will remain completely private. Mr. Hyman submitted six plans to the Board and the landscaping plans. Mr. Raynor will submit information on the cost of the bluff plantings so that the Board can determine the price for the bond. The Board will meet with Mr.John Raynor to review whether he can review the plans for the Board.

This proposal is for a cluster subdivision of 20 lots on 47+ acres located at Orient. Mr. Emilita explained that the proposal had been through the SEQRA process and has had a public hearing on the preliminary maps and there was nothing stopping the Board from granting preliminary approval at this time. Mr. Emilita noted that there was no correspondence from the Countywith regard to approval of this parcel for water and this issue should be resolved, however it has nothing to do with the subdivision proposal before the Board. Mr. Emilita also stated that the applicant had 'fulfilled all the items requested to date. Also, with this proposal , the water and sewer cannot be addressed until the preliminary approval is granted since the County Health Department will not make a review until the proposal has preliminary status. Mr. Emilita cautioned the Board against accepting a final submission until the matter is resolved, with regard to approval of the water. Mr. Esseks stated that the water treatment and sewer must be approved prior to coming back for final approval. On a motion made by Mr. Ward, seconded by Mr. Mullen, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board approve the preliminary map for the .ma 'or subdiv.isionof Nicholas Schick, located at Orient, for 20 lots on 47 . 950 acres in the cluster concept, map dated January 31, 1985.

This application was also pending before the Board of Appeals for a special exception and a variance on the parking. The Board of Appeals requested the Planning Board' s recommendation with regard to the site plan. Mr. Mullen felt that the circulation was good because the access was off the site street. Mr. Ward stated that he had no objection to the parking layout and the applicant will be submitting a landscape plan. The Board did not have any objections to this proposal. The Board referred the following comments to the Zoning Board of Appeals for the site plan of North Fork Country Club: 1) The Board has no objection to the proposed parking alyout, since the ingress and egress will be on moor' s Lane. It was noted that the Board has Planning Board Page 5 12/2./85 North Fork Country Club, cont. - requested a :landscape schedule and to date has not received one. It was felt that proper landscaping would buffer the. parking. Sebastian' s Cove - The Board reviewed the report from Lawrence Tuthill, Town Engineer regarding the work on the road within this subdivision. The Chairman read the report as follows, to wit: "Gentlemen: I have made an inspection of the pavement and the Belgian Block curbing. The Belgian block curbs, the 212 " base course and the Iz" wearing course have been installed. It is noted that for some unknown reason that the 6" soil stablized base was not installed. It is noted that the timber guard rail at the circle has not been installed. It is also noted that there are excess side slopes on the east side of the road between Station l+ and 3+00 and about 70 ' on .the circle. Respectfully submitted, Lawrence Tuthill" On a motion made by Mr. Edwards, seconded byMr. Latham, it was RESOLVED that. the Southold Town Planning Board accept the Town Engineers report regarding the road work within the major subdivision of Sebastian' s Cove, located at Mattituck, dated November 13, 1985.

The time on the action expires on December 10, 1985, therfore,. Mr. Fellinger-Ihar will have to request an extension or the Board may have to take unfavorable action. Estate of John. Simon - The Board reviewed this proposal which had previously received approval with conditions for a 4 lot subdivision on 81 acres at CountyRoute 48, Peconic. In the motion of approval the Board had requested that provision be made for a 50 ' wide right-of-way to be reserved for future dedication to the Town for a possible Town road. The Town Board has also reviewed this and has made it known that they are not infavorof this east/west road. Mr. Simon had expressed concern that if the road is developed he will be .left with a parcel that will not conform to the zoning and then have a lot on the sound which he can not build on. The Planning Board felt that the road would be a good idea for the future and covenants and restrictions had been submitting indicating. that any future lot created as a result of the road being built would be considered a building lot. It was also noted that the Town Attorney had explained that if a dedication is made Planning Board Page 6 12/2/85 Estate of John Simon, cont. and nothing improved within seven years, it reverts back to the owner. Mr. Emilita stated that previously the Town has accepted a floating area for dedication of the right-of-way and no specific deeded area. It was the consensus of the Board that this could not be required if the applicant would not agree to it and since the Town board was not in favor of it. On a motion made by Mr. Ward, seconded by Mr. Mullen, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board amend the final resolution of January 21, 1985 to delete conditions 2 and 3 for the minor subdivision entitled "John Simon Estate" . and authorize the Chairman to endorse the survey map dated Janaury 21, 1985.

Raynor, Jr. was present as agent to discuss this minor subdivision of 4 'lots. on 24 acres at Sound Avenue, Mattituck. It was noted that. the Suffolk County Planning Commission had denied this proposal. Mr. Raynor stated that he felt that the Suffolk County Planning Commission does not understand that the Town of Southold has the power to restrict large lots with covenants from future subdivison. Mr. Ward suggested that the proposal be clustered. Mr Raynor stated that at this juncture he did not that it would be fair. This proposal was in order for a final hearingand it would not be fair to change it at this time. Also, Mr. Raynor stated that all of the lots were to be transerred to family members. Mr. Orlowski stated that the Board would review the covenants and restrictions in the file and did not have to take action with regard to the Suffolk County Planning Commission at this time, the file was in order, however, to set a public hearing. On a motion made by Mr. Latham, seconded by Mr. Ward, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board set December 16, 1985 at 7: 30 p.m. at the Southold Town Hall as the time and place for a public hearing on the question of approval of the minor subdivision of Walter-and Marilyn Gatz located at Mattituck, 4 lots on 24 acres.

Mr. Ward stated that he felt that the cluster was a good concept, however, it could be better by clustering tighter. He felt that this is a short coming in the code not to have tighter clustering, with same density and smaller lots. Mr. Orlowski stated that they would have to get the county health department to go along with� it because they require 40, 000 square feet minimum lot area for water and sewer approval. 'Mr. Orlowski felt that -- Planning Board Page 7 12/2/85 Breezy Shores, cont. -- the County may reconsider this and may be willing to discuss this. Mr. Raynor .stated that he would like to the Board to issue a ' .negative declaration on this proposal. Mr. Emilita stated that under the previous application for this property, the Health '! Department and Department of Environmental Conservation did not comment under the SEQRA review. Therefore, he would like' to openthat up again to .allow these agencies to comment. Mr.'! Raynor stated that the DEC is very backlogged and it would take some time to get comments. Mr. Emilita stated that because this is a revised project it will require a new Environmental Review. Mr. Orlowski stated that the Baord will review the Long Environmental Assessment Form and make a decision on the Lead Agency at the next meeting of the Board (December 16, 1 ,85) .

Bertha Kurczewski - 2 lots on 1. 5 acres at Depot Lane, Cutchogue. Local Law on Accessory Apartments - The Town Board was proposing a Local Law. on Accessory Apartments and had forwarded same to the Planning Board for comments. David Emilita stated that he had reviewed the proposal and objects to Article O because it eliminates the Planning Board. The Chairman agreed with Mr. Emilita stating that the Planning Board should be able to review these. Mr. Mullen questioned Paragraph K because it was not known how the certificate of occupancy requirement would be policed and who would verify the situation. Mr. Lessard stated that a new certificate of occupancy would have to be applied for every year and they would know if there was a change of ownership through the assessors or if the Town acquired a computer. Mr. Lessard .stated that alot of history is slipping through the cracks because no one can remember as far back as is needed and- a computor is essential. Mr. Mullen stated that it is hard for the Building Department to keep up with the existing work and enforcement may be a problem, and he suggested setting up an enforcement office to help the Town with this. Mr. Edwards agreed and stated that the Town is loosing alot of money because they can not keep up with the assessements , etc. Mr. Ward stated that unles there is enforcements no one will have encouragement to come in because there are lot of illegal accessory apartments already in existence. On a motionmade by Mr. Edwards, seconded by Mr. Latham, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board forward the following comments to the Town Board regarding the proposed Local ,Law on Accessory Apartments: -i - 3 Planning Board Page 11 12/2/85 Accessory Apartments cont. : The Planning Board has no objection to the proposal, however, they recommend that paragraph 0, which states that site plan . approval is not required, be deleted. ' It was also noted, that paragraph K, regarding the termination of a certificate of occupancy would be hard to enforce, since it is difficult to police deed transers or elimination of owner occupancy. The Board recommends that an enforcement officer be set up to aid in this matter. The Planing Board feels that with proper enforcement, this local law will be beneficial. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mullen, Latham., Ward, Edwards Land Use Plan of the Master Plan Map - On a motion made by Mr. Ward, seconded by Mr. Mullen, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board adopt and authorize the Chairman to endorse the Land Use Plan of the proposed Master Plan dated November 27, 1985 , in accordance with Section 272-a of Town Law.

Costello re-zoning and Draft Environmental Impact Statement - In coordinating the Costello re-zoning from A Agricultural/ Residential .to M Light Multiple under the State Environmental Quality Review Act, the Planning Board would like to go on record and comment on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement. The Town Planner, David Emilita, had submitted comments to the Planning Board and the Board concurred with the comments. The Chairman read the report as follows, to wit: Planning Board Page 12 12/2/85 Costello Draft Environmental Impact Statement cont. : "The Planning Board should go on record with regard to he Costello Rezoning DEIS. The Deis is basically very similar to the one prepared for the former annexation effort and so much o its project, however, . has potentially significant and different. impacts from the annexation and these need to be .addres ed. These are as follows: 1) "M" Zone vs "HD" District The M zone will not entirely accomplish the applicants stated ' desire, that is to produce affordable single family lots. Nor will . it in itself accomplish sffordable housing of any kind. It is thus recommended that the "HD" District be applied to this site as soon as feasible. Inthe interim, covenants and restrictions s should be utilized or a rezoning conditioned on the provision of affordablehousing as defined by the Town. 2) Impact on on-site well It has not been clearly demonstrated what effect that 1 0 dweliings on 48 acres will have on an on-site well in trms of recharge quality. Input from the Village water system a d the County Health Department wold seem necessary in this regard. Existing water quality in the test well is acceptable, but there will be a loss of recharge due to consumptive use and wastewater collection, and there will be an introduction of lawn fertilizers and other household contaminants into the recharged groundwater. The impact on groundwater, (and the on-site well) has not been stated. Input from the Village of Greenport' s water system and from the Suffolk County Deprtment of Health would also seem necessary in the event that one or both public utilities would prove to be unavailable. (A letter from the Health Deprtment on the annexation alternative is included in this DEIS. We don't feet this is acceptable as a review of this project under SEQRA) . In conclusion, we agree with the stated merits of the rezoning proposed, but some conditions need to be placed on it to assure the Town that the stated purpose will be achieved. " On a motion made by Mr. Latham, seconded by Mr.Mullen, it was RESOLVED that the Southold .Town Planning Board accept the report of David Emilita dated November 25, 1985 and forwards these comments to the Town Boord to go on record with regard tothe Costello Rezoning Draft Environmental Im act Statement . Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mullen, Latham, Ward, Edwards The"Planning Board introduced .Councilman/Justice Raymond Edwards, who .was in the audience.
