My sincere congratulations go to them. I would just like to say, I'm very pleased that we were a~te to make these designations within the Centennial year. As you know, in order to be designated as a historic house, or building, you must apply for the designatior~ and the registe'r is kept here at the town, and we are always encouraging people to apply, to let us go out, examine the houses, and have them get onto the Town Register of historic places, so please, spread the word around, because,'we'd tike to try and get some more houses on here. Thank you very much. ALICE HUSSEY: I~d like to say a few words on behalf of the Officers, and the Trustees, and the members of the Southold Historical Society. We're very delighted - with this designation of landmark status, and we do want to express our appreciation to the Town for all of it's cooperation in that endeavor, as others, especially the Bayview Schoolhouse. We're very pleased to have that on our grounds. We, also, want to thank the Park Department, the Southeld Town Board, the United States Coast Guard for the help that they gave to us in restoring the light on the tower in the lighthouse, and also, making the tower accessable to the public, and as far as the Schoolhouse is concerned, I think you might be interested to know that it will be open in the Spring, ready for use, and if you happen to know of some school desks around 1914 era, and, or a stove, we'd like one. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Thank you Alice. On behalf of the Southold Town Board, I'd like to congratulate the Landmark Preservation Commission for the job well done for the year, preserving, and providing historic places in Southold for recognition for all the public to enjoy, and behalf of the Town Board and the people of Southold Town, we thank you from the bottom of our heart. I'd like to give them a round of applause. The members, who are here, of course, are Bill Peters, Joy Bear, and John Stack. Ralph Williams, and Joe Townsend, who are unavailable. Thank you very much. At this time, Ed Dart, you're the Chairman of the Tree Committee, and we have certificates of appreciation for all the vendors within the Town, who have donated their time and services, and certainly donated trees to make Southold, and keep Southold a rural and historic place, and to keep it beautiful. Ed, why don't you come up? I have the certificates on the table, and I'll come-down with you, and we'll proceed ahead. The floor is yours. EDWARD DART: This year marked one of our most successful years with the Southold Tree Committee. Through the generosity of a number of growers within the town, and landscapers, we were able to plant well over a hundred nice street trees. You've seen some of them on the highway, other ones in front of the land- fill, so it's been sort of a first time successful effort, and we're very, very pleased, and we'd like to continue this in future years. It was basically a Iow cost project due to the generosity of some of our local growers, and landscapers. Now, we've asked some of these people to come. I don't know if they're here, but if they're not here, we'll deliver these certificates to them. I certainly want you all to know, that these are the people, that have been generous. This is Tim Coffey from Tim Coffey Nursury in Southold, Shamrock Tree Service from Mattituck, Peter Sterling, I see from Plantings by the Sea. Come on up, and get this, Pete. Peter is responsible for planting right here, Horton's Lane. You noticed there's a whole nice row of trees from end to end, and Peter Sterling donated the day's labor of his crew. Peter Sterling planted the Zacova trees and Linden trees on Horton's Lane from end to end, so thanks very much, Peter. Northeast Nurseries, you've seen them up on Route 48 there. Are you Gene? Oh good, I've never met you~ got one of the most pregressive nurseries going on the North Fork. He seems to turn out a wonderful crop of trees, and we're very grateful f6r his generousity. Thanks again, Gene. Indian Neck Corporation is Dave Cichanowicz, and with a couple of volunteers from the Kawanis Club, End myself included, we dug a few holes, and planted some trees in Mattituck area. So I don't know if Dave is here tonight, but certainly the Chicanowicz family has been very, very helpful to us. Shade Tree Nursery, is there anyone here from Shade Tree Nursery? Jamesport, out of towners, still helping to contribute to our cause. Jon Lake, Landscaping. Come up, Ed, good to see you. Wolf Pit Nurseries in Mattituck. Peter Costage, he's a nursery broker. Anybody from Doroski's Nursery here? Here's the Chichanowicz family here with Holly Hollow Nurseries. They're a wholesale grower in Peconic, as you know. Another high school classmate of mine, Jay Acksen from Acksen Nursery in Bayview. Then, again, the Chicanowicz with Braircliff Landscape, who they participated on two sides of our project. Once for giving us some trees out of their nursery, and the other side of their business participated in a day's work of planting. So, we'll see that these firms get this recognition, and your recognition as well, too. Thanks very much. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Once, again, on behalf of the Town Board and the people of the Town of Southold, thank you very much, and we certainly appreciate what you've done for Southold. EDWARD DART: I did notice two,-enthusiastic fellows from the Landfill here. They dug up some trees from the back of the Highway Department. Dave Zuhoski., and Marty. Dave and Marty work up at the Landfill, and they're two of the enthusiastic fellows from up there, and it was their efforts that got that nice, dare I call it a promenade into the landfill. It will be a promenade one day. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: At this time, could we have Lieutenant Conway, come forward, please, and Chief, soon to be, Stanley Droskoski, and of course, still our Chief Dan Winters, and at this time, why don't we start with Lieutenant and work our way down. We'll save the best for last. How's that? We'll take some pictures. We have a resolution, that is permanently part of the record of the Town of Southold, honoring Chief Harold Dan Winters, who's retiring from public service on January 1, 1991. The Town Board wishes to pay tribute. Moved by Supervisor Harris, seconded by the Entire Town Board, WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Southotd wishes to pay tribute to CHIEF OF POLICE HAROLD D.

CHIEF WINTERS: Thank you very much, Scott. I really appreciate it, and ~! want to thank the Town Board, also. Certainly, we've had a good relationship. I guess I started before many of you were Board members. COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: You started when I was three years old, Dan. CHIEF WINTERS: And that's why I think it's time for me to move along. Many times fellows hang on, and hang on, and don't have any time to enjoy their remaining years, not that I'm going to die tomorrow. But I was doing a bit of calculating today, and Judy will check me on this, I know it, I think my pay checks have been signed by nine different Supervisors. That's quite a record, I think. Thank you all, very much. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: On behalf of the Town Board, and the people of Southold Town, I'd like to congratulate Stanley Droskoski, Chief as of this January 2, 1991, Lieutenant Joe Conway, Lieutenant, obviously as of January 2, 1991, and, Dan, I can tell you, we're going to miss you. We know that the new Chief upcoming, and incoming, will have his work cut out for him to fill your rather large shoes. So, on behalf of that, congratulations. DECEMBER 11, 1990 229 STANLEY DROSKOSKi; This is perhaps a little premature on my part, because January 2nd isn't here yet, but I feel I have to thank the people, my family, my friends, my associates, who have been here tonight, those who have supported me in my endeavors. I feel I have to thank the Town Board for offering me an opportunity to fill the last phase of my career. I feel I have some very big shoes to fill. There about 13, but Chief Winters has lead me down the primrose path. He's guided me. He's encouraged me, and I wish him the very best, and I hope to do the job, that he's been doing. Thank you. CHIEF WINTERS: It wasn't always primrose.

This resolution has been revised to stretch out the payment period from five years to ten years, to lessen the tax ~mpact from the resolution, that was introduced to us previously. We have correspondance dated October 31st from Dvirka and Bartolucci, where they have anticipated the cost for the complete study at about $236,000. I asked the Supervisor why, at the work session, which is appropriate, $400,000? Well, it was recommended by Dvirka and Bartolucci, although it's unlikely that we'll be asked to install additional well clusters, that we have this amount of money available. So, hopefully, the hydrogeologic studies will not cost the Town $400,000, they'll cost us more in the neighborhood of $250,000. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Hopefully, Ellen, it stays as Iow as ~t possible can. COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: I'd just like to say, that I think it's really vitally important, that we have this hydrogeological study. It's important to find out if there is a flume, where there is a flume, and if it is affecting ou¢ groundwater, or if it's not affecting ou'i-groundwater. From that, we will be able to determine which direction in which we will take. It is really the base, I think, of our understanding of the landfill. F 17a.-Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilman Wickham, Councilwoman Latson, Councilwoman Oliva, Councilman Penny, Justice Edwards, Supervisor Harris. This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED. SUPERVISOR HARRIS: And as was mentioned, this resolution is just the preface to what we're going to be doing, anticipating the next two resolutions, which will be going out to bid for two of the procedures, that are needed. Hopefully, we can start this project sometime the end of February, the beginning of March. 'This hydrogeologic study, it's actually not a study, it's actually a project. It's construction, and also, it will be very pivotal to the whole plan for Southold Town, and we have to prove unfortunately to the DEC under Part 360, that we are not guilty here, (tape change) this process of driving wells at a cost of over $10,000. a peice. We have approximately 14 wells, that are going to be put in, in seven clusters of two. It's very unfortunate that the Health Department wells, which were up there, which were monitored, show that this leach ate contained no more organics, or inorganics, or heavy metals, than that that's contained in saltwater. Unfortunately the DEC wants further verification other_~han that, which has been done by Suffolk County already, and the taxpayers are, once again, asked to bear the full brunt of these costs to prove our case, and it certainly should strengthen our case, when it comes to the fact that the leachate, , that is up there, is not polluting the groundwater in the fashion, that the DEC has remitted, or said that we've done. ,1, 1, o 235 17b.-Moved by Councilwoman Latson, seconded by Councilwoman Oliv~, THE TOWN BOARD OF THE TOWN OF SOUTHOLD, IN THE COUNTY OF SUFFOLK, NEW YORK, HEREBY RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS: Section 1.

This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED. COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: I'd like to just say one thing. I think it should b~,~ noted, with the offenses, and Harvey brought it to my attention. I just want to read this section of the new proposed mandatory recycling, "any person committing any offense of illegal dumping under this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof, be guilty of a violation punishable as follows: For a first offense: A fine of not less than one thousand dollars and not more than fifteen hundred dollars, or b, imprisonment for a term not exceeding ten days, or community service of forty hours to be performed, with thirty days of the date of sentencing. For a second offense: A fine of not less than two thousand five hundred dollars and not more than five thousand dollars, or imprisonment for a term not exceeding thirty days, or, community service of one hundred and twenty hours to be performed within ninety days of the date of sentencing. Any person committing any offense against this chapter shall, be subject to a civil penalty enforceable and collectible by the Town in the amount-of one hun'dred dollars for each offense. Any person committing a second and/or subsequent offense with twelve months of the date of the first offense shall be subiect to a civil penalty enforceable and collectible by the Town in the amount of two hundred dollars.-'>Such penalty shall be collectible by and in the name of the Town for each day that such offense shall continue." So, they're putting some teeth into i't. Hopefull, we will not have to use it. Thank you. TOWN CLERK TERRY: And you might add that, this entire Law, proposed Law, will be published in the newspapers. It will be there for everyone to read.

I'm going to let Councilman Penny take over at this point. I'm going to try to get back to my district to exercise my right to vote tonight, in a Fire District election. Have a nice Holiday, and I'll see you soon. Supervisor Harris left at 8:45 P.M. COUNCILMAN PENNY: At this point are there any additional comments by any Town Board members, before we go to the public for their comments? COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: I would just like to give a brief Councilman's report. On the 8th we had a Planning and Zoning Committee meeting, which Ruth chaired. I'm sure she'll report on. We, also, had interviews for the Police Lieutenant, and I have to say that both candidates for the iob were obsolutely excellent, or else they wouldn't even have been sitting there to be interviewed to begin with. On Thursday, we held a recycling finance alternative meeting, and we discussed the"~r" 1991 anticipated Town recycling costs. They're estimated at about $100,000. We discussed several metholds of financing this, in addition to the $25. sticker fee, that was passed by the Town this year. We wanted to keep any user fee involved as Iow as possible, but as wide and broad based as possible to include all. We discussed formation of a garbage district at this time, but we ruled it out, because we felt it would just be too bureaucratic and confusing to implement at this time, and also, taxing the general tax base, which was kind of out because we've adopted our 1991 budget. We discussed several alternatives. Among them was a punch card to have punched, and pay a fee when you go into the landfill to dump household garbage, and several other methods. The best, after we reviewed many methods used in many towns through a very comprehensive booklet, that was presented to us in publication. We're looking at bag purchases for this year in implementing charges for bags of garbage to offset the cost of garbage to be anticipated this year, _not a very popular, or something that we're enthused about doing, but none the less responsible to look at just the same. On the 2nd, I also had some meetings with Bessie Swann from the Village of Greenport on Iow income housing needs in Greenport. On Monday, December 3rd, I met with the East End Arts Council. Last year we allocated $3,000. for a cultural planning study for the Town of Southold.. Judy We~oe~'- of East End Arts Council and Angle, I can't remember her last name, did a survey and the analysis. Lois Southoff of the Mattituck Chamber .of Commerce, Bea Hardy, and many other participated in the survey. We are endeav_oring to bring additional fine arts to the North Fork.. During economic depressed times people tend to go to more movies, and tend to go to more functions closer to home, and the results of this study pointed out that 64%, an overwhelming ~-~ majority of the population within the Town of Southold, stated that the group that / ~ needs to be addressed was the teens. We also had a meeting on runoff with Ray ~ Jacobs to implement the road runoff drainage program for Goose Creek this year, and last night we attended the meeting on the Waste Management Task Force. The only other thing, that I'd like to comment, I thank you for your indulgence, is the decision, or the resolution, to hire the law firm in defense of the Town. Several statements were made. Many statements were made over a year ago, on both sides of the political fence, as far as the landfill law went, and I personally voted for advocated, the approval of the Daneco plant to provide a facility in the Town to handle the non-recyclable municipal solid waste with Shelter Island, River- head, and Southold Town. Today, it's interesting to see that Southampton, River- head and East Hampton are all entertaining requests for proposals for composting plants in their towns. We, also, said last year, that we knew the DEC, or we anticipated the DEC would fully enforce the..or attempt to enforce the 1990 landfill closure on December 18. On the other hand, we were told not to vote for the plant, that we would find a municipal agreement among the towns, that we would 249 DECEMBER 11, 1990 ~et an extension on the landfill law, and that if all el~se failed, that we could truck. In April or May of last year, I don't remember the date exactly, I submitted quite a report to Tom Wickham, and the Solid Waste Management Task Force, outlining the astronomical cost associated with the town with the trucking solution. The Solid Waste Management Task Force. . some of the members are sitting in the audience now, have an attitude or a philosophy, that we can landfill, and many of the Town Board members feel this way, too, for the next 30 years, through the year 2015. That's certainly not my attitude, and I don't think we'll ever get a judge to agree. However, I don't agree with the DEC pro-burn mentality, and I believe we have to have more time. As an elected official, I can not ask the public to go cold turkey, and endure the extreme economic hardships and costs associated with trucking out of town, and implementing the Long Island Land Law on a short term basis. While I will support any relief attainable to the taxpayer, be assured that I will work with the Supervisor, the Town Board, and the Solid Waste Management Task Force to come up with a permanent solution, that does not rely on landfilling.. Thank you, George. COUNCILMAN PENNY: Ruth? COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Just a quick update on the Planning and Zoning. I attended most of the meetings, that Ellen has already reported upon. The Architectural Advisory Committee with go to the Legistative Committee to draw up something in the Code to help the Planning Board with their architectural review. We do not have a report yet for the affordable housing. Hopefully, that will be done soon. We talked about the different commercial zones, to look all over at some of permitted uses, that are allowed now. Some are allowed by special exception. Some of the uses are too similar. We even have a gas station, that's in a marine zone. We discussed the fact that, either the Planning Board has some time to do something in house, or use student interns in the summertime. They felt that they needed some sort of landciearing ordinance, which we'll have to go back and discuss. We discussed about open space management. If we do acquire some lands under the open space quarter per cent sales tax of our own, ~r~r~[r~g some sort of management plan, and Jim McMahon suggested that Tom Mumff from Southampton might come over. They're doing an open space management plan. Perhaps he would come over, and talk to us. We thought it would be a good idea to do some coordination with the Tree Committee, as far as our. affordable housing districts are concerned to get some trees up, and we would like to have perhaps another SEQR workshop, as we have had in the past with the former Town Attorney. We need a beginner's course, and another advanced course.. I-would just like to add something, too, about voting for the lawyers to litigate the landfill law. I do feel we do need some sort of professional legal help. It's unfortunate that we have had to wait to the enth hour, really, to the eleventh hour, to come up with some of these questions, that perhaps should have been made available to us, or we should have thought of a few years ago, and now we're just down to the eleventh and half. hour.., to decide .this. I.take 0pte of Ellen's comments about the other towns going to the.composting..Al have always believed in the composting. I do believe that perhaps there are some changes needed in the landfill law, or to allow us to do something, if we completely do the 70% recycling and reduction. My thought is, and as an environmentalist, I must say this, that the produce you have left is basically food stuff, dirty papers, and what have you, and just to dump that into the ground, even with 30 tons a day, it's 30 tons a day, 365 days a_year, year in and year out, and I don't see that that is a good way of..environmental way of getting rid of.your garbage, when there is an alternative of making a product, that is usable, and perhaps even salable, and then the remainder, which is left from that process, could be put into a lined or even an unlined landfill, because there should nothing that would be hazardous to the groundwater. Thank you. COUNCILMAN PENNY: Tom? . .~ : COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I'd like to hold my comments, and I may respond to questions, that come from the audience. COUNCILMAN PENNY: Ray? JUSTICE EDWARDS: Back to Daneco's $8,000,000. composting, of course I was for the composting, but we were not given the total picture on that. If the composter was in..wouldn't have been in operation yet, pert~aps maybe it would have been, but we would still be looking for a place to haul the ash out of there, probably forty, fifty percent residue. We would have to put in a lined landfill. I don't think the residue could be buried directly into the landfill, and that $8,000,000. for the Daneco composter did not include the lined landfill, nor the trucking, so I think we're on the right track the way the Town Board, the present Town Board, is going now, and I think only the future mill prove we're right. Thank you. 25O DECEMBER 11, 1990 COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Judge, I just want to say, that my remarks were not specifically designed to the Daneco plant intself, or the proposal that was made. COUNCILMAN PENNY: I would iust like to say, that I'm very happy to see the unitity of the Town Board at this time. It's been a long time coming. I think that finally we have a unanimous agreement here to challange the Long Island Landfill Law, which through the work of many people on our Task Force, and many citizens in our community, with the encouragement of TaxPac, the League of Women Voters, $outhold 2000, the NFEC, and several other groups on record, and many personal comments, that have been made by individuals, is that Southold Town can not comply With the Landfill Law, as it is worded, and I concur with tha~ 100%. It's been my position, and litigation has been inevitable from the day that we started tl~is, and the DEC has put us in a position by not responding in a timely fashion b~/ only acting as a ..I can't use the word I'd like to use, but all they've done is sit there, and told us everytime that we've come up with a proposal, and so'ne of these, including the hydrological study are going on three years now, they've only told us what we can't do, but as they've told us over and over, again, that although they are mandated under the New York State to offer us tecYnical assistance, they've told us right up ~ront, that they have no technical assistance to give us. So, I'm very happy to see that the Town Board has taken this position, and I wish us all, and the other East End towns with us, luck with this pending litigation. We'd like to go to comments with the audience at this time. Please come up to the podium, state your name, and whatever matter you'd like to address the Town Board on. CHARLES ZAHRA: Charles Zahra from Mattituck. Subject matter is a letter of October 16, 1989. The last time I spoke to you peoplewas 7/30/90, and I'm iust curious if you could give me an update, as to what's taking place with this matter. TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: What letter is that? CHARLES ZAHRA: The Alvah's Lane. TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: What letter are you talking about? I'll answer your question. What was the letter in July, that you're referring to, the one in 19907 CHARLES ZAHRA: In July, that was the last time I spoke to the Board, with reference to that letter, and where it was going. Scott Harris said that based on the information I had provided, that.. TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: I didn't know what you were talkinq about. At the present moment, no comment is being made in regard to that, be~:ause of your pending litigation. We feel that in part, in whole or in part, it may only be food for your litigation, and, also, I think we Would be ill advised to release any information, provided same were available, and that is my position as Counsel of the Town, and I really don't feel that any further comment is appropriate considering the pending litigation. I'll tell you, there is no written report, so freedom of information does not apply. CHARLES ZAHRA: I just want you to know, that I disagree with you. TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: Fine. That's certainly your right. CHARLES ZAHRA: I believe it's for the benefit of the entire Town of Southold. So. you're saying, at any. given point, a report will be given on any action taken? TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: I've made my comment. CHARLES ZAHRA: Thank you. This law addressed only rec,vcables. It's in the process JOHNANNA NORTHAM: The second issue is litigation. You have agreed to take Counsel with Beverage & Oiamond, I believe it is. COUNCIMAN PENNY: No. They were just replaced this evening by Smith, Finkel- stein, Lundberg, Isler and Yakaboski. COUNCILMAN PENNY: of being drafted. JOHANNA NORTHAM: Good evening. My name-is Johanna Northam. I have two issues I want to address. The first one is about the recycling, mandatory recycling. I am disappointed that you didn't address the construction debris, because that is a major part of our waste stream. JOHANNA NORTHAM: Are they familar with environmental laws? Because I feel as a Task Force member, that for a year we designated ourselves with the law, and the issues, and we should exhaust every avenue that's available, before we even discuss it. Thank you. COUNC,~L~AN PENNY: Is there anybody else in the audience, that would like to address the Town Board? WILLIA~ PELL: Billy Peli from Greenport. I wonder if we can have an update on the landfill, on w~t~s going to happen in the next few days. COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I'd like to make three or four points, Bill, that I think would outline the thinking of this Town Board at this time. Really four points. The first one, I think the question that you pose is the question on everybody's mind basically. What is going to happen on the 18th or the 19th.. A message from the Town of Southold is, that the dump, the landfill, will continue to be open. Discussions about closing it, and padlocking it, and walking away from it, I think are irresponsible, and do not reflect the views of the Town. The buildinq will be open. The gates will be open. It's Town property. We do not anticipate it's being closed. If there were a closure, it would be to the ground area way in the back were the landfill actually occurs. There's recycling that's going on. It's a permitted activity, the STOP Program, the yard waste composting. Certainly, those things are not going to be stopped. Residents should continue to bring in their garbage, as they have been doing for years and years, and carters should bring it in. The Town will take responsibility for where it goes. At the moment, our thinking is, that it could continue to be landfilled in the back. If by the time the 19th comes around, we don't think that's prudent, we have contingency plans where it could be taken, But, in any event, as far as the people of the Town are concerned, the landfill will continue to operate as it has in the past, and people should feel free to bring in their materials. Second part I want to refer to is the point that Johanna made about the madatory recycling. We view this as an extremely important measure for the Town of Southold, and ! think you'll find the Town Board will adopt those ordinances as quickly as feasible. As was brought out in her question, the Town is, at the moment, preparing legislation for the possible fazing out of construction type materials, also, from the landfill, which will make a substantial dent, almost 50%, in the materials that are brought in. The third thing I want to say, is I want to make a few comments about how the Town is going to be relating with the DEC in the future. I'd like to profess those comments with two sentences from the lead editorial from a local newspaper last week, and I'll just quote this. But this much seems clear, the Long Island Landfill Law deserves a place in history as the biggest governmental fiasco since the Southwest Sewer District. The landfill challenge called for broad vision, and true leadership, but what we've seen is chronic confusion, and petty politics with a vacuum of leader- ship in Albany. I think that reflects the views of most of us on the Town Board. We have been frustrated at every step in trying to deal with the DEC. It's not.. I'm not able to outline to you this evening briefly, how the Town is going to try to press it's legal challange. All I can say is, we believe there are sound grounds for challanging the application of the law, the interpretation of the DEC has assigned to the Town of Southold. As you may know, or shortly learn, in the runup to the deadline next week, in the last few days the DEC is spending it's time try!ing to press the Town of Southold into a consent order. The hydrogeologic study is that we passed a bond, we passed a resolution endorsing a bond, is basically a study to measure the impact of the dump as it exists, and the possible contamination of groundwater as that water moves towards the Sound from where the landfill is. We made an application to make those studies wa~, back in, I believe, it was May of last year. As of today, we still have not got an approval from the DEC to carry it our, and without that approval it's foolhardy for the Town to spend massive amounts of money, and then to be told, no, what you're doing is not in conformance with our recommendations, and. we will not abide by those data, and still despite all kinds of representation, we have not got a permit to conduct those studies. There are all kinds of frustrations, and basically, it is those difficulties which have lead us, at this late date, to challange the applica- tion of the law to the Town of Southold. There was a comment from one of my colle§ues, that it's rather too bad that it's come at the last minute, but in part that's because we've tried to work in constants with the towns of Riverhead, Southampton, Easthampton, and Shelter Island, and at the moment all of them, except for Southhampton, are on board on this. We think it is the responsible thing to do to press the DEC to stand up and say we are not prepared to live with the strictures of this law, as they have been applied to us. We can't tell you exactly where we're going to come out on it, but we think it is the responsible thing to do with this town. Lastly, I want to comment on the importance of a bi-partisan effort on the part of the town. As George mentioned tonight, we had, 252 I think, a good demostration of how the town should approach the problemr and how we should relate to the DEC. We had a unanimous ~3oard movements on each of the major pieces. That doesn't mean that each of us has exactly an identical point of view, and you've heard some of the variation in our views. That's important, but what is much more important is that both, we on the Board, and the public at large, support broadly this effort, and we'll be coming to the people of the town asking for demonstrations of that support, as we continue to negotiate and to seek a relationship with the DEC, that is clearly in the town's inte~-est. As far as the Board goes, each one of us on the Board has played an important role so far, and I think we each will continue to play an important role in seeking a solution to the problem, that it's in the Town's interest. I not going to name it now, but each one of us has had a particular role, that has been import, ant, and I think each one of us will continue to take that role. Thank you. COUNCILMAN PENNY: Anybody else in the audience like to address the Town Board? STEVE LATSON: Steve Latson. I surprised Ellen tonight. I'm from So.,thold. It's been long time with this whole dump issue, and I have my own feelings, which has nothing to do with Ellen whatsoever. I've got a little demor~stration here of a point of information flyer what with Republican. I think this kind of says it all easily. First, I'd like to say that, when the Brown Tide came, which is a pollution issue, and so is the dump. All of these are environmental issues. Myself, and a couple of other baymen from the East End, formed a group called Green Seal~ and we brought scallops back to the Peconic. We had to deal with the DEC. We had to deal with the UDCo We had to deal with the Army Corp of Engineers. We had to deal with the IRS, b~cause Green Seal, it tur~ed out, our parent group, had horrible book work, and essentially they were to~ally We had to take what was left, deal with the IRS and everything else. ~/e had to deal with lawyers, and all kinds of people. We brought scallops bac]~, and went through an awful lot of hard work~ book work. I feel that considering that you guys have known since 1980, that this is happening, that the Towr~ citizens have been given a great disservice, what is finally happening, and yo~ know, I'm sure you will disagree with me, but that's the way I feel, and it's ~st'really upsetting to me. I really feel the person that was involved in a program, very similar to what you're doing, you know, in many ways. We had to deal with a lot of very high official organizations, the DEC, UDC, the IRS, the Army Corp of Army Engineers, etc. So I don't know that deal with that many organizations. We accomplished something in three years, you know. I don't know why you didn't do it in ten. Anyway, here's finally what I'd like to just show you.. This is one of those straight and narrow simple choices, but when you get to the second page, seek relief from some of some of the more rigid features of the Long Island Landfill Law. Of course, we will comply with the State law. So, I guess what I'm really saying is, when you run an election next time, maybe you'd better be a little more honest, and then finally there's a picture here, and it says, Frank Murphy, will it be nice if starting on the 18th all these trucks from Islip, Medford, Mastic, Centereach, Coram, Yaphank were lined up at our composting plant, come to the Town of Southold with their garbage, which would relieve our taxpayers. Now, I believe this deep in my heart, that this was a good plan, because we would have been forerunners. Instead, here's the Town of Southold back here, and some truck lined up with God knows what dump. Excuse my language. I think this cartoon says it all. Obviously, we have to work together, move o~ into the future. You guys blew it. Sorry. Good night. WILLIAM PELL: One other question I'cl like to ask Tom. If w,e compost, if we were to compost up there in the future, how much ash would 'we get out of composting at our landfill? COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: 30%. No not ash. 30% product. WILLIAM PELL: I couldn't see where ash came out of composting. COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I don't believe it does. COUNCILMAN PENNY: I think what Bill is relating to is, that Ray in his earlier discussion mentioned the word ash. JUSTICE EDWARDS: Residue. I'm sorry. COUNCILMAN PENNY: What he meant was residue, and I don't think it was inten- tional. Are there any more comments from the audience? DOROTHY PHILLIPS: I just wanted to know, if you take this into court, are there any fines or penalties, or anything that the town suffers, because we are taking .this route? COUNCI.LWOMAN LATSON: We're seeking an injunction. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: Is that an injunction? COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: Yes, that what we're going to seek right now, an injunction, a relief from the Long Island Landfill Law. That's what we're asking for. We tried through the Legislature, and now we're going to try through the courts.. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: In the meantime, you are going to do your best to follow the Law as it applies after the 18th of December? COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: We'll try. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: Okay, that's what I wanted to know. Have you contempleted the length of time, that this could be in court? This go be forever. Think of the Master Plan. COUNCILMAN PENNY: Harvey, would you like to address some of these questions? TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: , I'm listening to the question, because under the curcum- stances, litigation of this nature can be given a priority in the courts. It's just a question, whether we get involved in the Appellete process, and whether or not, there is stays, and injunctions actually issued by the Court. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: Well, the League of Women Voters, and the North Fork Environmental Council is involved in a suit against the Town, also, and that's suit has moved not a bit ....... TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: I'm aware of that lawsuit, because I happen to handling that for the Town, and first of all, sometimes you're dealing with the question of priorities of the Court. In that particular lawsuit, there was a determination made by the Court, but there was a c~uestion of standing, of plantiffs to bring the litigation. That will, in itself, tend to delay, because a hearing has to be scheduled on that issue, that narrow issue, before the facts of the case can be dealt with. That is not the issue here, so where you have intervening issue, as you do in the Master Plan litigation, that type of issue is not contemplated. Certainly as a muncipality,.this town, or any other muncipality under the number of the landfill legislation, would standing in court to challenge it. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: .-:Well, the.difficulty with this kind of lawsuit is, that while it's in Court, all sorts of things happen to the I.andfill, and to the environment, because nothing stops. I can't think if this will relate to the landfill situation. The other thing I'd like to say is that the people in this Town are all convinced that that is a very safe landfill, that the leachate is..they're all convinced of this. They all feel, that they want the landfill to stay, 'and our residue, after we have taken the 75% recyclables, and 10% out for this, and the residue it goes into the landfill. The pr:oblem with this is that I think all of us are convinced, that this is the way to go, but I don't think you've been exactly honest-with us. I don't think that's the way you're going to be allowed to go, and I think people in town should have a realistic assessment of what's going to happen. COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I'd like to address that. I'd like to begin by saying, that your concern about, do we know how much this is going to cost the town, and do we know how long it's going to take, those are very important concerns, and I would not want us to go away tonight thinking this is some easy matter, that's going to be handled painlessly, at no cost, and quickly. It's likely to be proci~stinated.lt's likely to be expensive, and quite frankly, I don't think any of us, knows at this point exactly where we're going to wind up, But we feel it is the responsible thing to do, that we can't just accept the cost, and the consequences, without fighting in some manner. That's basically how, I think we all feel. It is being shared. The costs are being shared by other towns. DOROTHY PHILLIPS.' The other thing, also, that in this whole process of ten years, the orignal bill was written, did anyone ever try along those ten years, to change the bill. I mean actually get legislators in action, take a bill, and try to amend it. In ten years, that has not even happened, has it? COUNCIL~.~AN PENNY: There have been legal court challanges, and there have been offerings of amendments. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: And none of this has gotten anywhere. We have never been able to put enough pressure on our legislators. COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: The legal challange is last, Dorothy, in court. COUNCILMAN WICKHAM; Her question is basically make' a change in the law through the Legislator, and the answer to that is, there have been many efforts made here on eastern Long Island, but they have been thwarted by many more voters, that legislators in the other parts around New York City, and what not, that have a much heavier weight. Part of the purpose of our bringing this action, together with the other towns, is to, again, mobilize an effort to redress the law beginning next year. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: It's awfully late in the game, and mind boggling to think we're doing it at this point. COUNCILMAN PENNY: People work best under pressure, and as late as ten after six tonight, Joe Sawickicalled the Supervisor's Office from Albany, to among other things, to let us know that there may be some new movement in the Legislature. They've had some concessions, and this is going to be a day to day, hour to hour, scenerio up until the 18th or 19th, and maybe not even until the 1st of the year, but there had been attempts made, right now, even as we speak, the Legislators are trying to get a consensus among themselves, and the Long Island Delegation is trying to get their act together, so that they can come 'n with some legislation, that will offer support for all of the towns, because there are nine towns, I believe, it's nine out of the ten towns, that are involved in the Long Island Landfill Law. All require legislative, administrative, relief, or an extension, so we are not alone. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: You did complete all of the work involved in applying for an extension? TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: The Law does not permit extensions. COUNCILMAN PENNY: We are requesting in a Legislative extension, through our local Legislature. We have not made an extension application to the DEC, because it's not proper for us to do, because we don't meet the criteria at this time. We have applied definitely for a Legislative extension, and that is what the Legislators are trying to get for us right now. COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: .The DEC has told us, that we can not receive an extension given the status of our Landfill. DOROTHY PHILLIPS: Thank you. Thank all of you. I know you've worked awfully hard on this. FRANK CARLIN: Frank Carlin. Laurel. I wasn't going to speak tonight, but it came around the subject. In the Newsday back in 1986, I believe it was, the sources, from town sources, it said in there, plans for composting plant. I have the copy home. 'i forgot to bring it. It had a list of all the different towns, that proposed a composting plant, and I have the copy home. I'll bring it to you. Southold was in there in 1989, to build a.composting plant at the cost of $4,000,000, at that time, to produce 125 tons a day of garbage. Breaking ground was scheduled in '87, and the completion of this composting plant was in '88. I don't know if you know about it, or anything, but it was in the Newsday, with the list of them there. It's too bad we didn't follow through on that plan. We would have been out of this mess. But then we had a second shot in 1989 to build a plant, although it went up to $9,000,000. COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: It was 7.2 million, was the cos~ of the plant. FRANK CARLIN: Okay, say 7.2, what you say, million dollars. But we failed on that one, so I guess by listening to this so called plan, that we had, what happened. We had a plan, and we didn't want the composting plant, and composting plant, again, doesn't produce ash. You talk about incineration, so let's get our stories straight on that. Thank you very much. Four. years ago, it only costs us $4,000,000. COUNCILMAN PENNY: Anymore comments from the audience at this time? F JOHN NICKLES: John Nickles from Southold. I'd like to say that I think you're doing a good job. There is something, however, that is wrong tonight, probably one of the few things you can correct for us, and is your Town Seal is crooked. The Sterling side is at two o'clock, instead of 12 o'clock. I thought the acting Suoervisor would be the right one to straighten it out with his background, and lumber, and so on. He can get out his plumb line and straighten it out. COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: I probably knocked it, when I put these Christmas decorations up. COUNC!LMAN PENNY: Anyone else like to address the Town Board at this time? COUNCILWOMAN LATSON: Yes, a peaceful Happy New Year. Moved by Councilman Wickham, seconded by Councilwoman Oliva, it was RESOLVED that the Town Board meeting be and hereby is adjourned at 9:20 P.M. Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilman Wickham, Councilwoman Latson, Councilwoman Oliva, Councilman Penny, Justice Edwards. This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED. Southold Town Clerk
