7. Councilmen's Reports. At this time I'd like to ask the Councilmen
if they have anything special to report, starting on my left with Judge Edwards;
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Thank you, Frank~~ Since the last meeting, I've been
doing my thing in Riverhead. I've processed 11 application, including 3
yesterday. On the 9th of this month, we had a six hundred foot freighter
come ashore at Race Point. Apparently the pilot got completely disoriented- '
heading from Bridgeport to Boston,. and he came right ashore, right up
on an old gravel bar, and quite a few of the i~and residents were down
there taking pictures and so forth. Last Thursday I left Fishers Island
four o'clock in the morning, took my boat over to~ Conneticut', and took
my car down to New-York City, for a meeting down on 2nd. A~enue, and
I had a wonderful tour of the Drug :Enforcement Agency, down in New
York City, by a former trooper. 'l:rooper Connor, ~ho ~as on the island,
and it's really amazing to go through .there and see how the city, state
and government can all work together, ~on a couple of floors, and it was
a very, very interesting afternoon. Also, had a report, that one of the
baymen from Southold, went over to Fishers ~lsland to check on the clams,
and he didn't find any. He didn't look in the right places. I'm very
happy to say, [hat we won't be bothered, by the people of Southold ~oming
over there. I was late coming back to the meeting at lunchtime. I went
down to Senior Citizens and I have ten care packages to fly back to the
senior cit~ ~ ~l~-~d, courtesy of Vi ~cKeighan. I'm starting now
to gear up. I'll be taking Motor Vehicle pictures the last weekend in
October on Fishers Island. I'm just starting to get the computer cards
in from the .people, and starting to collate them, and get them into Riverhead.
With that, that's it, Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Raymond. Ellen?
COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: Thanks, Frank. It's been a really busy two
weeks. Since our last Town Board meeting, we've had a meeting with
the Parks & Recreation Committee, on September 9th, which was a very
productive meeting, I felt. CoUncilwoman Cochran will report on this,
as chairwoman of the committee, and she has a very hefty itinary for
us, that we'll be following up on. I'm looking forward to working on that;
on the 12th, ! attended the ZBA interviews, along with the rest of the ~
Town Board members, where we interviewed thirteen candidates for that
position, which we will be making a decision on in the future. On the
15th, Thursday, the 15th, I attended a ~~ Association meeting with
Jim' McMahon on the relay program~ that the To'h; that the Bayman's- ~'
Assoiciation Will be beginning ~n the 26th of September,utilizin~ a $50,000.00
grant from New York State DEC. The format was laid out with Jim and .~-
the various baymen, who will be participating. Among other topics, that
'they discussed at that meeting, was that the Captains' Association, North
Fork Captains' Association, had performed lab tests on bluefish. Six
years ago, they had done testing on bluefish, which showed high coliform FCB
~ SEPTEMB ER ~20, 1988
levels, but there was no~ differential between bluefish at the Throgs Neck
Bridge and the bluefiShes:at Or-i~nt~-~ :$~:~$00'~'00~was spent to analyze
two one pound' bluefish, two two pound bluefish, and two five pound bluefish
from the North Fork, and the results where that there is no PCB's or
coliform bacteria in those fish. On the 19th, which was yesterday, I attended
the Affordable Housin~l and Utilities Committee with the Village of Greenport,
specifically to discuss changes in zoning, that come before the Town Board
to allow for affordable housing, and the relation to water, which,also,Council-
women Cochran, will be reporting on. I did attend the Brown Tide Task
Force, also. That was August 26th, I was at that meeting with Vito Mineaut,
who was correlating the Brown Tide Study from the Department of Public
Health, had requested the Town of Southold to submit their maps with the
road runoffs by John Bredemeyer from the Trustees' Office. Took the
initial information that was collated by Heather Cusack from the CAC, and
placed it on the quadtriangles geodatic surveys, so that information is
now with the Suffolk County Department of Health. The Brown Tide has
dropped off in Flanders Bay. It's on in higher levels in the outer portions
of the tributuary, around the Hallocks Bay area, Coc,ecles Harbo-r area.
They're looking at nutritional needs in water quality products. There
was a high increase in the count, and a decrease that there was no relation
to the amount of rainfall, so they really, at this time, could not...there's
no rh/me nor reason to it. It's still there, but it's below very detrimental;'"'
count at this point. I have been working on the pump-out facilities, which
I reported to the Town Board during our work session. I guess that's
all. Thanks.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Ellen. Jean?
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: On September 8th and 9th, Supervisor MUrphy,
Councilwoman Oliva and myself, flew down to Tampa, Florida to view a
.c. ompostin~ system facility, and since the company, as I understand it,
is presenting a proposal to the Town, I will hold my observations until
such time as all proposals are discussed within the Town Board. On September
9th, the Parks Committee met with the purpose of beginning the task of
upgrading and developing Town owned parks. The Town personally owns
.001% of its land mass in parks, so you can see that the Town is park
poor, although for many, many years this Township has functioned on
individual park districts, but we feel very strongly that it's time that
the Town also provide some of these park areas, that would benefit all
residents of the community. It's been determined by legal counsel that
funds paid to the Town,in leiu of park and playground, can be used for
Townwide recreation facilities and its parks. Our first project for the
Town is the site at Laurel Lake, and the Board supports a proposal. They'll
be accepting it today in the resolutions, submitted by Timothy Rumph,he's
a landscape engineer, and we're going to develop- around the lake area
into a picnic area with handicap accessibilty and a jogging path,and we
also have to treat the errosion on the bank of the lake. Also, attending
the meeting was Roger Wines, who represents the Little League in the
Mattituck area, and he has proposed inprovements, also, to th~e site, such
as reseeding, regrading~ sprinkler system, electricity for your pitching
machines, chain link fence enclosure on part of the property, a storage
building, and so forth. These are some of the things, that the Park Com-
mittee had been discussing~ anyway, so his arrival on the scene was very
apropos, it fit right into what we were working on at the time. We are
in the process of obtaining Costs in relation to the ball park area. When
we have these costs and we can look at the total plan, also with the infor-
mation from Rumph,then we can present to the Town Board a complete
plan on the Laurel Lake site. On September 14th and 15th,(l'm trying
to do this fast, because this next part I'm going to try to capsulize two
days of meetings into perhaps, three or four minutes), but I think some
of what I learned in relation to the IB,~oc~/cle conference that Supervisor
Murphy and myself attended up in Albany, on the 14th and 15th of this
month is important to share. This conference was sponsored by, not only
by B~oO/cle, but also the Division of Solid Wast~'~.from the New York State
DEC. ! would like to say that Supervisor Murphy was on the program
the first morning, and he presented to the group the work that has been
done in Southold Town in relation to collect of hazardous waste. I would
like to congratulate the Supervisor on a nice iob. A job well done, Frank.
Norman Nosenchuck, a-director of the solid w~ste division for the DEC
.spoke ot the 1992 mandate anct every municipality ~s required to have
source separation in place by that time. He said the federal government
will be coming down with their rules and regulations in relation to waste
management, but the State rules and regulations are more strigent, so
he feels that as far as State regulations, it's almost a guarantee that they
will hold in piace for ten years. He also, recommended to the group,_
that no matter what your plans were for solid waste, that you also ir~lude
in, as a part of your plan, recycling and composting. There are also areas
that the State is working with the federal and surrounding states to develop
packaging controls, because packaging accounts for one half of the solid
SEPTEMBER 20,..!988
waste stream, and he reported that in Japan they had dec.re~$~'d; their
waste stream through recycling and so forth, by fifty percent, but then
they began to adopt our method of packaging and now that fifty percent
has decreased, so they're taklng a lesson, from American packaging that
is not going to benefit their waste stream. More and more municipalities
are looking at compost as a means of dealing with solid waste. Nora Goldstein,
executive director of BioCycle=, reported that there are forty localities
that are definately going.fnto composting as a solution with four or five
ready to go into operation. NosencP;uck said he would also like to see
color newsprint fazed out of the market due to cadmium and lead content
of colored newsprint. He, also, felt very strongly that burning of batteries
should not take place. He reported that .five percent of New York State
waste goes out of state, and now many of the states in the surrounding' ..
area,or wherever - New York State is taking this five percent,are wor~ing.':~'
very hard to close their borders. The State is also providing a newsletter
called the Recycling Bulletin with ideas, information and source of recycling
markets. The State Education Department is developing a curriculum for
grades K through 12 in relation to recycling and waste. He was also SCheduled
to meet this past Friday with the EPA in relation to the disposal of white
goods. As you know, we've been very concerned with where our white
goods are going to go, beca'use as far as the PCB's, those white goods
are now coming into the landfill. Presently, they're not being put on...
-_~-~-. ........... theses ap~p!iances, but there's a whole quanity out there that has yet to
be disposed of and come into the landfill. But he felt very, very secure
that a solution would be resolved with the EPA, and as soon as they have
a solution that the industry would be notified, and he was almost one
hundred percent guaranteed that they would reach a solution with the
EPA. In relation to the health issue in composting, and the using of sludge,
Dr. Epstein reported his findings. It's been noted that a healthy worker
will not be effected in working in this kind of facility, but if anyone is
using-an antisuppressant they could be effected healthwise, or anyone
with a problem'to extreme dust Could also be effected. But I feel that
- we are fortunate in that we have Dr. Epstein as our consultant. So, in
relation to health and compostin9, we have the master right on board.
E. & A., Associates, has reported that they're building a facility in Albert-Ley
Minnesota, of which 65% of the waste stream goes into composting, and 13%
is non-processed catagory~ and 23%' is recyclable. This is a static pile of
composting. It takes them a little longer to cure it. It takes them three
months, because of the zero weather out in Minnesota. Their composting
is being used for agriculture, because it passes the Minnesota state require-
ments. And, if it is used as a land cover it I~s two times the water holding
capacity then regular soil, and in Fort LaudercTale, Florida, they are using
this composting by-product in relation to erosion control. In Philmore
County, composting is limited by its markets, but they're using it on their
park system. There are some that felt that if'you're going into a compQsting
system and a recycling system the markets will follow. There are others
that stress very stronger, that you should put the markets in place first
so there isn't really a concenus or strong opinion in either direction. In
relation to cycling, I think the message came out loud and clear, that
you should know where you are, and where you are going. That you
must plan, provide, educate, keep very good records, so you can set
your goals and try to meet those goals, because the State will be imposing
more and more percentages in relation to recycling and taking thing~out
of the waste stream. They said one of the areas to look at if you're going
to recycle, if you make it mandatory that the most sticky issue is the
inforcement. That these towns that have made it mandatory are finding
it difficult to enforce, because do you enforce on a per can, per bottle. Do
you enforce on a percentage, so what they're telling you is that really you -
should sit down, draw your plan before you ev~.2 begin to go into recycling.
There's many differant methods of recycling, some do curbside collection,
some have a dropoff center, a depot center. They said, if you anticipate,
part of your enforcement, if mandatory, you have to look at, do .you have
inspectors at the site; do you issue letters of warning, the fines,what
are they based on. They feel that collection is the biggest problem. They
also, feel that marketing should be developed on a regional level, don't become
competitors with your adjoining municipality in relation to recycling. There
are markets developing for plastic. In Concord, New Hampshire, they
sell plastic at 25 cents per pound, granulated, and 18 cents bailed. This.
is what a rec~/clin center u there ets There was very interestin~
· g p g · a
speaker, Richard Corey, who is with rubber research, Elastometrics; frown~
Minneapolis, Minnesota. Seems like Minneapolis is really in the foreg~P~our~d
of doing a lot of this.· They haven't been sitting still. They've be~n
· -moving~ and they seem to be a leader, in composting or recycling: '[heir
universities have done a great deal of research. But what this fellow
does, he mixes, they use recycled tires, and they grind them up, and
they remove the metal and nylon fibers and so on and so forth, and the
end product comes out looking like pepper, and they mix it with polymer,
and some of the things that he has made, they produce it in either sheetstock
or pellets. But they've made gym mats. -lhey make it in differant colors.
~ SEPTEMBER 20, 1988
'IbeX, make farm buckets. They make gears for computors, snowmobiles,
and so forth. They've been and they
feel that they're bette~:~than much cheaper,
but because of the funding they've only been able to test those in the
state of Minnesota. One community as an incentive in the recycling program,
in the haulers, there's a $45.00 tipping fee if you don't recycle or be
a part of the recycling, and if you do recycle as a hauler your tipping
fee is zero, and they feel that's quite a strong incentive. Another pla(~e
uses shredded paper for animal bedding. That's why I say, some feel ~-"'
if you develop the product, and then the market will follow. There was
one location that was kind of cute in their public education program, which
they feel is one of the most important aspects to recycling. They use as
their spokesperson, someone by the name of Linda Garbage, and she is
their little logo, and promotes through the community what you do and
don't dO in relation to your garbage. Also, it was announced, that Ted
Turner on CNN, I believe it is, that has been filming and he has done
a fifteen day docu umentry on the waste problem, and recycling and so forth,
and its going to be shown for fifteen days, from what I understand, and it's
in OctOber, so anyone that is interested in watching this, you'll have to
watch your program, but it's scheduled for October. All and all, again,
every time we go to one of these facilities you learn a little bit more.
If someone had told me I'd know about trumblescreen~,and fat screens,
and shredders and hammer mills and composting, several years ago, I
wouldn't-have believed them, but it's a challange. Everytime we go to
either a conference or a site or facility to look at, we learn a little bit
more. ! know at least ldo. Some of my concerns are still the same in
relation to composting, as far as odors, the sludge availability free of
heavy metals,and the market, but I feel quite confident that these areas
are something that the Town can work out. On Monday, the 19th, as Ellen
reported earlier, the Affordable Housing Committee met with the Greenport
Utilities Committee to try to force the line of communication in relation
to the availibilty of water where a project for affordable housing would
be placed. As.you know. as a Committe(~, they function the same as we do,
and they were ur~able to commit themselves to anything. They have to
take it back to the Village Board and then they will be getting in touch
with you again, and we perhaps will be. dealing with them again. That's
it, Frank. I'm sorry it was lengthy, but ! felt it was inpo~tant.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you. That was an excellent report. Thank
you. George?
COUNCILMAN PENNY: My report is going to be somewhat shorter. I attended
the ZBA interviews, for the vacancy that was created, unfortunately,
when Bob Douglas died. They interviewed, I believe it was thirteen people.
We're going to act on that, probably at our next meeting. Last night,
the 19th, I attended the Housing Committee meeting with the Village
Greenport, and got a little insight into the problems the Village has had
in supplying water and some of their sewer problems. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, George. I'd just like to .add a little
to what Jean was talking about this BioCycle conference, I thought was _
excellent, and an awful lot of good contacts, and as Jean said, this is
really where you get to learn what's going on, and in talking to people;
I spoke to people from probably every state in the Northeast, and various
government agencies, and it really is good to have this interplay and sharing
of ideas .....

we can get this study done, because it's very inportant to the Town of
Southold, and to the future of one of our Town beaches. We've been very
lucky ir~'he last couple of years, the erosion has been minimal, and I'd
like to ~hank the Highway Department for the superb job that they've done
and are going ~do in the next few weeks, redredging and sand moving
operation from Goldsmith's Inlet to enhance our beach again, so very possibly
the destruction this winter will be minimal, because we're going to put
more sand there, so rather than lose it, we hope we don't lose any more
than we put in there, and we don't lose anymore of the public area that
we already have. Thank you. ~
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, George. Jean?
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: Nothing at this time, Frank. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Ellen?
COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: Yes, Frank. I've been working with Rob Berntsson
on the possiblity of matching our Open Space Bond Act money with EQBE
funding money that's available to the Town on a matching basis. Because
of the wording of our Open Space.law it isn't possible. I did discuss with
him the possiblity of matching our Park and Recreation money, of which
there's quite a substantial amount in there, at this point, over $150,000.00
nowhere hear the $1,750,009.00 we have in Open Space. I think the point
that I'm trying to make, is that as members of the Town Board, we're looking
very seriously at the amount of space that we have in parks, the amoun_t
of development being proposed and the amount of open space that we have?~
within the Town, and searching for alternative funding methods to help
insure the scenic easements, visual easements and open space that we need
for the Town. In the past months, there has been some discussion on various
methods, such as clustering. We do have a Local Law proposed right now
to allow the Town to accept property and own it in lieu of development.
There have been some questions raised in the past, specifically by Councilmar~.
Penny, that this land will be taken off of the tax roll. I think, a good
case .n point~ on Shelter Island, where one third of the island is in preserva-
tion and in open space, and it has never effected their tax roll. I just
wanted to give you some background on that.

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Ellen. Raymond?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Nothing.; Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: I Would just like to add to my comments before,
I do appreciate the cooperation of the' entire Town Board on whose ever
available, going on these- trips, and ias an example r're not a
luxury?jaunt, we left from my house at 5:30 the( and that
meant that Ruth and Jean,had to ~ound-5:~ Vhole
day traveling to Florida, up were
back at eleven o'clock the next morning. So it's not pleasant and I do
appreciate the cooperation. I think the people ~of ~o~th0id ToWn really
are going to be the winners.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: We got up. at 3:30 one morning, and 5:00
the next.
SUPERVIS~(~;R MURPHY: Okay, at this time, if anyone in the audience would
like to address the Board before we recess, and we will be gOing into-
executive session and then we'll open-the meeting again.
PETER BATALIAS: My name is Peter Batalias; and I've been a resident of
Suffolk County for almost 60 years, and I've dealt with every Supervisor
in Suffolk County for 30 years on waste disposal, and; in my experience
.SUpervisor-Murphy is the-most I<nowledgabi~ Person I have eve~ dealt W~th
in regards to solid waste disposal, and the Town. of Southold is going to
benefit from his experience, and his intellegence. SeCondly, th~ presentation
of the bids are public record. I wonder if I could have the names of ti~ose who
submitted bids, or'the organizations 1~hat submitted bids.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: At this time, no.
PETER BATALIAS: They're public records.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: I'm not sure if we're accepting them yet.
PETER BATALIAS: It's very difficult for me ....
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:

After we talk to the Town Attorney I can give ~/ou
PETER BATALIAS: Okay, Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Anyone else who would like to address the Town
Board?
RONNIE WACKER: I had a question. You answered it already. I wanted
to know what anybody was doing about the Master Plan. So now I know.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you. We're moving. I thought three years
ago. That was my prediction. That's how good we are. Anyone else?
If not, I will recess for the time it takes to meet with the Town Attorney.
