215
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: I would just like to comment before I vote. The Town
of Southold is out of cash right now. We are..have a resolution before us to forward
money from the surplus fund in the Highway Department to meet cash for the end
of the year. This $125,000 will only take us through our expenses to the end
of November. We still have two payroll periods to meet. It's estimated we'll need
an additional $300,000 in cash. We've heard much talk about sound fiscal manage-
ment all year long. The Town of Southold has never been in a deficit cash situation
before. We have never been faced with the fact of floating revenue anticipation
notes. Now, Elaine Kaldor, who is the Town's Auditor, has assured us that this
is a legal way to proceed, that we may legally. I would bemore ~mfortable if we had
it in writing, that we can proceed this way, to take the fund from Whole Town...
from Highway, give it to Whole Town, surplus funds from Highway, put it in Whole
Town, but I will not vote no, because there are vendors and people in the town,
that are relying on this money to get their bills paid, so my vote is yes.
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Yes, and I would echo Ellen's comments.
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: ! will vote, yes, and I'd just like to say, that
there is plenty of money coming in to carry us through the end of the year. We
don't get the second half of our State mortgage tax until sometime in January,
so q~Jite often this is happening in many other municipalities, and I don't know
that this has never happened in Southold Town before. I'd like to do a lot of
checking before I made a statement to that effect, but fiscally we're in good shape.

DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: This concludes our regularly scheduled agenda.
Are there any Councilman, at this time, that would like to give Councilmen reports?
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: We'll be holding interviews for the Mouth Board shortly.
This is formulated in the Town of Southold under the guides, that we thought we
were going to reach 20,000 population, but we didn't. We're about 400 short, but
we're going ahead with it anyway, live met personally with some of school superin-
tendents. They all agree that services are not being for youth in Southold Town,
so I'm excited, because in an area of tough fiscal times, which is not going to help
us with the schools. It's going to get tougher for the town. It's going to get
tougher for human service agencies, and their funding. The Town of Southold
will assist to start coordinating the various services, that are available to youth,
and not only that, the available recreational programs that are available to youth,
and also, we hope to increase it. We've got some very interesting people, very
enthusiastic people coming in for interviews, and I'm excited about it. The reason
I voted no on the bond for the $400,000., and we had considerable discussion among
the Town Board members, today, on this. It is a study, that has to be performed.
It's required,and ithas'tobed~ne to close and cap the landfill. However, I have not
received any copies, as a Town Board member, of the original hydrological draft
2 2 0 NOVEMBER 27, 1990
work plan all though I asked for them several time, and the final work plan was
submitted today with only one copy. Now, the Town Board historically has been
copied w~th every document of importance, so that every member has a copy. Now,
I would ask you, as the public, if you were sitting in my position, and you had
not received one copy of anything, and you're being asked to spend $400,000.
of taxpayers' money, would you do it? I have to think about that, and I can not
do it, because I have not seen one form. I have not been kept up to date. I
have not been kept abreast of this, and I have copies for the press, or anyone
who's interested as to exactly what I have gotten. Thank you.
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA:
that we're very glad that the recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Committee
for an Architectural Advisory Committee to the Planning Board will be sent to the
Legislative Committee for, hopefully, adoption into the Code, and we're looking
forward to having this done sometime early next year. I'd, also, like to say that
we are working on a mandatory recycling law to be enacted in the first quarter
of next year, but I do want to say, that I have been very excited by the fact
that our recycling percentages of household waste have been going up every month,
and last month it was up to 8.2% of the total household garbage. I find that a
good increase. I'm very delighted with the people, that have done it on a voluntary
basis, and I urge those that have not done it on a voluntary basis to get on board,
because it's going to be mandatory before you know it, and you should all get
used to it now. Thank you.
I'd just like to report on the Planning and Zoning Committee,
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Okay, we're off and running. Councilwoman Latson is talking
out of both sides of her mouth. Resolution fi2, which is the sewer rent on Fishers
Island, she did not vote on, for what reason I do not know. Resolution #14, she
said that she voted on it with reservations, because the vendors had to be paid.
Resolution #2, sewer rents on Fishers Ks.land, those venders have to be paid,, too.
We can all be thankful that the Town Board moved some monies from other funds
in there to pay these vendors on the Fishers Island Sewer District. Now, those
monies have to be repaid, and the only way to repay them is to bring up the rent
for one year, to get them out of the hole. Now, this was not brought up at a
work session this afternoon. It was possible, that we could have talked this over,
but this is typical of Councilwoman Latson. All during the Budget procedure,
she would vote no, no, no, with no reason, and no explanation, and no ideas on
how to change these fees. I think it's very, very unfair that she picked on this
one resolution, #2. Thank you.
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: Judge, these sewer rents according to the law, that
was read, the first installment won't be due until the first of January, so Cou~r]cilman
Edwards has..
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Justice Edwards. Thank you.
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: has plenty of time to get it past. It's not going to
effect Fishers Island Sewer District. It's not going to effect the vendors getting..
JUSTICE EDWARDS: But why not pass it now, then. Why wait two weeks?
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: Because there were a lot of concerns raised. (Tape
change. )
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: We all heard the public hearing, and we all know
the reasons the rents went up.
JUSTICE EDWARDS: That's right. Thank you.
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: Are there any members of the audience, who would
like to comment on any matter at this time?
WILLIAM PELL: Can you enlighen us on what's going to happen on December 19th,
as far as closure of the landfill? Bring us up to date perhaps? Tom Wickham isn't
here, maybe, somebody could.
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: We have not sat down and addressed this as
a Town Board, Bill, so I think that it would be unfair for each one of us to comment
individually. This is a matter, that will probably be handled in Executive Session
with our Attorney, and the results of that will be made public once the Town Board
has come up with the final conclusion.
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: We aren't negotiating consent order. The Supervisor
informed us today, that he is talking to Brookhaven. So, at least, talks have
started in that direction, because I asked the same question, myself, Bill, of the
Supervisor. Are you talking to them? And, yes, he is. According to him we
can take our garbage to both Brookhaven, and Smithtown. They have both agreed
to accept it.
NOVEMBER 27, 1990
221
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: Bill, I would just like to clarify one thing on Scott's
behalf. The Supervisor told us he has had discussions with the Supervisors of
each of those towns. There has been not Town Board action on our behalf, on
their behalf to confirm this, so anything that you're hearing right now, and Scott
would say exactly the same thing, it is strictly speculative. We haven't gotten
into the n_itty gritty with anybody.
WILLIAM PELL: But you are talking to Brookhaven?
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: Scott has spoken to some of the Supervisors, who
have expressed a willingness to help us, which I think in Brookhaven's case it's
something that they stated very early on, at the beginning of the year, so nothing
has really changed, but we do not have commitments from their Town ~3oards,
or commitments from our Town Boards to take them up on it.
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: I didn't say that we did. I just said, that I know
that they're talking, because I think we should be talking about it as a Town Board~
WILLIAM PELL: How are we doing with this joint legal with Riverhead Township,
going after the DEC, hiring a lawyer outside? Anything new on that?
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: We have not made any determination of going after
the DEC, or how we're going to handle it. We have tentatively hired, or agreed
to go into a agreement with some of the other East End towns, to hire a mutual
attorney, and no decision has been made as to what the nature of that action is
going to be.
WILLIAM PELL: But, we did agree to go in with them?
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: Yes, we did.
WILLIAM PELL: Resolution ~14, the advance of $125,000. from highway surplus
funds, I believe that was the resolution. .
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: It was strictly a cash transfer.
WILLIAM PELL: How much surplus does Highway have in that line item?
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: It's not a surplus transfer. It's strictly a cash
transfer.
WILLIAM PELL: The second half of that one, who decides..it says, as needed,
additional amount as needed. Who decides as needed, the' Supervisor, the Town
Board, or what?
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: I think the wording of that was probably a little
sketchy, and any other transfers will probably be coming before this Board. That
was a word that 1 didn't happen to catch earlier.
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: No, I didn't catch that either. What number was that?
Resolved that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby authorizes the cash
advance in the amount of $125,000., and additional amounts as needed..an addition
amount as needed, so it could be more than $125,000.
WILLIAM PELL: That's my question, who decides?
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: I think that the Town Board will act on another
resolution at that time, Bill, in spite of what that resolution says.
WILLIAM PELL: I thought I heard that.
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: We
afternoon at the end of a very long
of words might have gotten by us.
spent a very, very brief amount of time this
day going' over the resolutions, and a couple
COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: Why don't we amend that?
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Can we amend that right now, George?
DEPUTY SUPERVISOR PENNY: Yes, let's amend it. Are there any more comments:
from the audience? (No response.) Hearing none, I'll have a resolution to delete
the words, and additional amounts as needed, from the prior resolution. Can I
have a motion on that?
