On motion made by Frank Cichanowicz , seconded by John Tuthill RESOLVED to recommend to the Southold Town Board disapproval of the wetland application #136 submitted by James Bitses to erect bulkhead, attach dock or dredge. Southold. The following comments were made by the Council: Rachel Duell - Don't feel that there is an erosion problem, whatever dredging done would fill in the existing wetlands. If we were to O.K. this it would set a bad precedent, there would be no way to undo it. The natural growth is holding back erosion. There is no valid reason for doing this. Frank Cichanowicz - The whole area on the East side (Corey Creek) is an important wetland area, very fragile we would not want any additional bulkhead in that area. Would like it to! remain in its natural state. John Plock - The adjourning area is 100% wetlands and we should not allow anything to cover the wetlands. Nothing should be done but a walkway and floating dock. Robert Hood - If this is covered in its natural state you defeat the purpose. Destroying the existing wetlands where proposed bulkheading would exist would be elimating wetlands and therefore should not be done. Betty Wells - This property is neat and healthy and there are no signs of erosion, shouldn't be disturbed. John Tuthill - This is a perfect piece of wetlands, should not be endangered or destroyed. I see no indication of erosion in that area, for this reason we will not approve this application. On motion made by Frank Cichanowicz , seconded by .Rachel Duell RESOLVED to recommend to the Southold Town Board approval of the wetland application #137 submitted by Charles Zahra & Alfred Grassklaus , to improve existing driveway and install retaining wall.

Mr. Dean will be notified along with the Mosquito Control to check these pipes under the road.
