SOUTHOLD TOWN
CONSERVATION ADVISORY COUNCIL"
THURSDAY, APRIL 20, 1995
4:30 P.M. .
The Southold Town Conservation Advisory Council met Thursday, April 20,
1995. The meeting was called to order at 5:00 P.M. by Chairman Stephen
Angell.
Present were: Stephen Angell, Chairman
Bruce. Loucka, Member
Robert Keith, -Member
Jack Hagerty, Member
Patricia Isaksen, Member
Allan Connell, Member
Betty Wells, Member
Linda Cooper, Secretary
CHAIRMAN'S ANNOUNCEMENTS
Chairman Stephen Angell reported that he had attended the Trustees' meeting.
The Trustees' had disapproved the Wetland Application No. 1238 of Pisarelli
for a dock because the lot was substandard in size. If they approved the
project, others would be able to do the same thing and create a marina
atmosphere.
REPORTS
Patricia Isaksen stated that she had observed conditions at some of the beaches
in Southold Town and felt the CAC could become involved in a project dealing
with the beaches (cleaning and planting beachgrass). The CAC agreed that an
"Adopt-A-Beach" Program would be appropriate and that the CAC could
spearhead ' such a project. Patricia Isaksen and Betty Wells will work on
setting up a program..
Bruce Loucka expressed concerns about dumping at road endings. He . feels
part of .the problem is a result of changes at the disposal area (e.g. there are .
no longer bins for small pieces of wood, metal, etc) . He will draft a letter
to Supervison Wickham and- Alice Hussie with some suggestions for curbing the
problem.

Meeting of 4/20/95
Bruce also reported that he will begin doing water samples at Arshamoneque
-Pond.
Robert Keith reminded the CAC that, due to the number of applications for that
location, the CAC needs to make an inspection of Robins Island. Chairman
Stephen Angell said he would speak to `the Trustees' Clerk Jill Doherty to
arrange something.
Allan Connell suggested that CAC arrange to have a group (Boy Scouts, 4-H)
replant the beach at South Harbor Road. Suffolk County should be responsible
for suppling the seeds and plantings since it is responsible for the
destruction of the beach area.
Allan also reported that, at the request of the Southold Town Board of
Trustees, he developed a planting plan for the Keely project.
Jack Hagerty reported that he had transported samples to the DEC at the
request of Steve Latson. Also, he would be taking water samples from Goose
Creek after the next rainfall.
