Opening Comments
Supervisor Scott A.Russell
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Will everyone please rise for the Pledge? Thank you. Before we
get to the regular business of the agenda, we want to take a few minutes to recognize some
colleagues of ours, who will no longer be working with us. It is actually a difficult time for all of
us because we have gotten to know these people for so many years and who work so well
together but I know that the contribution they have made to this community and commitment
they have made will continue. I am going to ask each of the people to come up, Judge Brian
Hughes, William Ruland. And I am going to ask Meghan Collins will be here and Bob. You
know, we didn't know each other that well when you first started. My dad knew you well, he
Southold Town Board Regular Meeting

was in law enforcement. Everybody in that industry, that profession, thought so highly of you.
And I know my dad and others, police organizations that endorsed you, in fact. It's been a
pleasure working with you these last four years, I think you have done a wonderful job, I think I
can speak on behalf of his whole staff, the law and order you brought to the profession. We did
not put (inaudible) Judge Hang-em High Hughes (inaudible) but on behalf of the entire Town
Board, we want to thank you and present you with a proclamation to say thanks for the
dedication you showed not just to your profession but to the entire community of Southold town.
JUDGE HUGHES: I appreciate it greatly but this isn't just for me because of the staff, would
you guys mind standing up for a moment please, I get to embarrass you one more time. Missing
is Diana but Kendra, Dania, Michelle and Leanne, I really could not have done this job without
the five of you and you will always be in my heart. And also I would like to thank the Town
Board for the support during the four years, there were some difficult times and there will be
some difficult times going forward but you guys are up to it. Thank you very much.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: This is an extra special proclamation I am going to present to your
Dad. I know he was too ill to make it tonight. I actually started working with George, was
elected about a year before I was, so I worked with George for virtually the entire time I have
been working for Southold Town. There was a little bit of a break for about six years, he wanted
to move on with other things but after six years and begging we finally convinced him to run
again in 2001. George is a man of singular integrity, served his country, we all know he is a war
hero, he is also a hero to this contributions in so many ways with so many organizations and
certainly with the commitment he has made to his job on behalf of the people of Southold Town,
the hard work he has put in for nearly 25 years I would say, it's immeasurable. We owe a debt of
gratitude to George and please present this to George on behalf of the Town Board and please
give him my wishes and say I hope I see him in the next few days. Thank you. Now, actually let
me just say and I know a lot of people might think this sounds repetitive but I am going to tell all
of you in case you don't know, well, I am sorry Bill, I graduated from Mattituck High School in
1982. The person who presented me with my diploma was the man standing to my left, William
Ruland. He was president of the Board of Education there for 24 years and then he has served as
Town Councilman for 12 years and he has served as my Deputy the last few years. Bill, I want
to thank you so much for your mentorship, for your guidance and for your, I would say your
solid advice that you have given all of us. You don't speak often but when you speak, you speak
with authority and speak with the experience of someone who has worked so hard and dedicated
himself to this community for so many years. I want to present this on behalf of the Southold
Town Board. One other thing, Legislator Al Krupski could not make it tonight but he did want
to make sure that I presented this proclamation on his behalf and on behalf of Suffolk County.
COUNCILMAN RULAND: Thank you. There is no greater privilege than being honored by
your peers.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Once again, thanks to all of your for your dedication and hard work.
I would like to say as I have said in the past, you are all welcome to stay but it will not be, we
will not consider it rude if you don't stay for all the resolutions. Would anyone like to comment
on any of the agenda items? Please feel free. (No response)

RESOLVED, that the Town Board hereby appoints Peter Meeker to serve as the CSC
Coordinator for the Town of Southold, and be it further
RESOLVED, that the duties and responsibilities of the CSC Coordinator shall include:
• Gather information on energy use in municipal operations to explore areas with energy-
saving potential
• Coordinate the greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory
Southold Town Board Regular Meeting
December 17, 2019 page 25
• Assess existing land use plans (e.g., comprehensive plan, open space plan) and land use
tools to determine if energy and climate change are addressed
• Gather information on planned projects or large purchases within local government. For
example, if the local government is planning to purchase equipment, build a new facility,
or start a municipal planning or capital improvement project, there may be opportunities
to integrate energy conservation or waste reduction practices into the project or purchase
• Research existing programs or polices that support GHG reductions and may be
expanded or may help task force members identify members of local government staff
who are knowledgeable about GHG reduction strategies
• Gather information on available funding sources, technical assistance and other
resources to assist with GHG-reduction projects.
• Research similar initiatives in other localities. Other local governments in New York
have implemented similar projects; the Climate Smart Communities program offers a
network of communities active in this area that share best practices and develop
partnerships with neighboring communities
• Draft resolutions and ordinances to implement GHG reductions and adaptation measures
• Educate residents and businesses on climate change and local climate programs and seek
input for projects that will align with their interests and goals. Encourage citizen action
by providing information on best practices and funding available for their own projects.
The local government website is an excellent place to display information on this topic.

Closing Comments
Supervisor Russell
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That completes the business of the regular agenda. I would invite
anybody that would like to comment on any issue to please feel free?
COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Can I just make a comment on that last resolution? I want to
thank Judge Hughes for volunteering for this position that Eileen Powers stepped up to. Part of
the way this court system was set up, this particular one, it counts on judges volunteering their
time for this and Judge Hughes has done it for the past four years and now Judge Powers is
stepping up for this very important issue.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Who else would like to address the Town Board on any issue?
Nancy Bufkins, Southold
NANCY BUFKINS: Nancy Bufkins, Southold. I have a question on the Comprehensive Plan.
My question is assuming it's going to be adopted in 2020, how does it affect projects that are in
the pipeline right now, specifically the Enclaves which I know have business before the Town
but will the standards that are set out in that comprehensive plan apply retroactively to projects
such as that one?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Any rezoning wouldn't apply...
MS. BUFKINS: Not zoning, I am just talking about the general....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, this is, the comprehensive master plan is a document, it's a
guide, made up of 13 chapters. One of those components would be a land use component and
that's where you'll take up the issue of zoning...
MS. BUFKINS: Well, I guess specifically the part that I was reading this afternoon, the part I
was most interested in was about character of the communities.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
Southold Town Board Regular Meeting
December 17, 2019 page 30
MS. BUFKINS: And the desire to sort of maintain this small town, historic feel. And I guess
the developer has gone with the 2005 plan which of course it meets those standards but with a
plan such as that(inaudible)put forth in that new plan...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay, community standard, first I don't, community standard is
going to appear in any land use document. Community standard, to be honest, is subjective.
What the Comprehensive Master Plan does is it outlines several different goals and objectives, so
any one decision has to be weighed against those goals to make sure it's consistent with what was
adopted as a comprehensive master plan. What were the wishes of the community that are
included in that plan. Community character, we do have architectural standards and all those
other things. The comp plan would give us an opportunity to consider whether architectural
review should be voluntary or advisory or mandatory, all of those things are going to be part of
public discussion as we move forward.
MS. BUFKINS: Okay. So I just want to make sure, I am here representing some neighbors, I
just want to make sure I go back and report this correctly, so I think what you said was no, that
something in the pipeline will not, I mean, the comprehensive plan, assuming it's adopted in the
next few months which I guess I can assume, that would not, in other words if the developer has
to go back and has to revise his proposal, would it be held to those things that are set out in the
comprehensive plan. And the answer is....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Any pending applications are pending under the current code...
MS. BUFKINS: The current. So it's not retroactive?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No, the Comprehensive Master Plan is not town code, it is simply a
document that provides a guide for future decision making and future code amendments. Things
like that. But let me just stress, that a pending application is just that, I can't speak on the
specifics of that, this is before the Zoning Board of Appeals but ultimately things like community
character, all those things as they exist in the code are things that the Zoning Board of Appeals
can evaluate. There is no hard and fast rule as to whether something is determined to be
consistent or inconsistent, the Zoning Board of Appeals and other Boards are going to determine
what is the community standard meet, what is the community character? Is this plan that comes
before us consistent with everybody's understanding of community character and community
standards?
MS. BUFKINS: Just one final bit, will the comprehensive master plan be adopted in 2020? Is
that on the agenda to be done in the first half of the year?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: The Comprehensive Master Plan itself we anticipate certainly
adopting sometime in 2020 but remember, the Comprehensive Master Plan, once that's done,
then we have a fixed document that was adopted, now we go out to the community and say this
is the plan,this is the guide. How do we implement this guide?
Southold Town Board Regular Meeting
December 17, 2019 page 31
MS. BUFKINS: Right. But you would adopt it so that we would have that basic baseline, that's,
those are the goals.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That's exactly right. Yes. But it would involve any future changes
or any future considerations based on the comp plan, would require a substantial amount of
public input and that certainly is our goal.
MS. BUFKINS: Thank you.
COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Keep in mind, a lot of what's already in the comp plan we are
practicing, is our best management practices.
MS. BUFKINS: Inaudible. Having looked at the proposal by the developer, he was basing all
his data on the 2005 and so,you know, I guess our group was wondering,that's pretty outdated
and will that be allowed to stay...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It could very well be but data is empirical so there might be issues
with regard to traffic that data would be considered....
MS. BUFKINS: A lot of the environmental impact stuff, especially water usage...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: But those things, they can be evaluated by the Zoning Board of
Appeals today, in other words, there is no 2005 threshold of standards they need to meet. We are
hoping that the community character component gets judged as community character, it's just
that. That is something for the Zoning Board of Appeals (inaudible). Is this consistent with
what we have identified as community character. And don't forget, the hamlet stakeholders
implementation plans were adopted some years ago. When they are presented to a Town Board,
they have to be voted on to be accepted by a Town Board, those community character standards
and all of those things, the wish list of the hamlet stakeholders is part of the decision making and
has been for some time.
MS. BUFKINS: Okay, thank you.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Sure.
COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: You'll have plenty of time to comment on that...
MS. BUFKINS: Oh, I know. No, no, this is a very specific question that one of our members
wanted to know, because again, they were going off the 2005 standards it just seemed
unacceptable, given that we have come so far and....
COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: Inaudible....that a decision is (inaudible).
MS. BUFKINS: No, no, we've been down this, we are actually pretty well informed. Thank
you.
Southold Town Board Regular Meeting

SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I'm just a little confused because I am unaware of any type of code,
2005 code standard that they are applying because the Zoning Board of Appeals, this is 2019.
MS. BUFKINS: I guess because the new code is more, sets out more standards, better standards
and they were not addressed in your proposal.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: But the Zoning Board of Appeals has the right to require those.
They are under no obligation to follow the 2005 standard that appears in the Southold Town
code. They can insist on 2019 standards, they have every right to do that as a quasi judicial
body.
MS. BUFKINS: Right. Especially considering all the information we have now about
environmental changes going on, we are so vulnerable to.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Absolutely and they have every right to take this application,
regardless of what data you present, they have the right to take that information and say, you
know what? We want to look at this from a 2019 perspective not the 2005 perspective.
MS. BUFKINS: Okay. Thanks a lot.
Supervisor Russell
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Who else would like to address the Town Board on any issue?
JUSTICE EVANS: Happy holidays everyone.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Happy holidays to everybody. Before we adjourn, I want one last
chance to thank William Ruland, this is the last chance, the last time that you are going to be
sitting to my left as ironically my right hand man, so I thank you very much for serving as my
deputy for so many years.
Councilman William P. Ruland
COUNCILMAN RULAND: It's been my pleasure and my honor.
