LOCAL LAW NO. 2019
A Local Law entitled, “A Local Law in relation to the six (6) month Extension of a
Temporary Moratorium on the issuance of approvals and/or permits for the parcels of
property in “The State Route 25 Love Lane Intersection and surrounding area” .
BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Southold, as follows:
Section 1. Purpose
Moratorium Extension
The Town Board recognizes that in the area of the intersection of State Route 25 (a/k/a
“Main Road”) and Love Lane there is insufficient infrastructure to handle the drastic increase in
traffic in recent years and to allow for the safe passage of pedestrians to safely cross Main Road
at the Love Lane intersection as well as at other intersections immediately to the East and West
of the aforementioned intersection. This lack of infrastructure puts the health, safety and welfare
of the public at risk. The residents of the hamlet of Mattituck and the surrounding areas have
voiced their concerns regarding the risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community and
the need for improvements to the infrastructure at the intersection of Main Road and Love Lane.
Similarly, local business owners have identified the traffic issues along Route 25 and Love Lane
as having a negative effect on local businesses.
A six (6) month moratorium was enacted by the Town Board of the Town of Southold
as Local Law 1-2019, on February 26, 2019, with an effective date of March 6, 2019. The
current moratorium is set to expire in early September 6, 2019.
The moratorium as enacted, is intended to provide sufficient time for the Town to
consider the recommendations of ongoing traffic studies, a parking study in the Love Lane area
and the completion of the Town Comprehensive Plan.
During the course of the moratorium the Town has met with New York State Department
of Transportation officials to determine which of the various proposed improvements to the
infrastructure the State would deem acceptable and willing to implement or allow the Town to
implement. This analysis remains ongoing. In addition, the draft Town Comprehensive Plan
has been completed and is now open for public comment. The final adoption of the plan is
anticipated to occur by the end of year 2019.
The Town Board wishes to be able to consider the proposals and recommendations
contained in the various aforementioned plans; consider various alternatives to current zoning
along Main Road; as well as implement improvements to the infrastructure and adopt any
recommended land use changes, to insure the health, safety and welfare of the community to
address the recent drastic increased demands on the infrastructure in the area around the Main

Road/Love Lane Intersection and surrounding area. An extension of the moratorium is necessary
to complete this function.
Given the reasons and facts set forth above and until the planning process is completed,
the Town Board finds it necessary to extend the moratorium already in effect, the terms of which
remain unchanged and are set forth below. This action is necessary in order to protect the
character, public health, safety and welfare of the residents of the hamlet of Mattituck as well as
those visiting the Love Lane area.
