I. Requires Immediate Attention: Nothing at this time
11. Board and Office Policies, Practices, and Activities:
Calendaring ZBA Applications
The number of applications submitted to the Board is ever increasing, and the wait
time to be schedule for a public hearing is now about 4 months. At our Regular
Nleetirlg on September 12, 2.4191 discussed this backlog with the Board members and
how we might reduce the current wait time for applicants. The Board agreed to hear
most of the applications now scheduled for December 2019 and January 2020 during
our October and November 2019 Regular Meetings and to hold a separate evening
hearing on the SEQRA FE1S and Special Exception Permit application for the
proposed Enclaves Hotel and restaurant project in Southold. Although the work load
and the hours spent on hearing dates will temporarily almost double for these two
months, we will be totally caught up on applications and therefore able to calendar
new applications in less than half the current wait time.
