if he got any word from Mr. Yakaboski in regards to the Garbage Oistrict on Fishers

TOWN ATTORNEY SCHONOEBARE: Mr. Yakaboski was to ~call me back~ He was
on the other line when I spoke to his office at the time which was about 3:00 o'clock
this afternoon, and as of 7:34 I haven't heard yet.
JUSTIC EOWARDS: Thank you. Ridiculous. Thank you, Frank.
SUPERVISOR MIJRPHY: Ellen.
COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: Yes, Frank. On Wednesday, February 24th, I attended
the Town Trustee meeting with a follow-up on our boat ramps, and reviewed the
Trustee proposals that we have before us tonight on the marine monitoring, which
is consistent with the recommendations of the B~rown Tide Task Force, and my own
recommendation on monitoring both point and non-point pollution sources for cumulative
Effects o~n Peconi¢ Bay. On February 25th we--several of us attended the STOP
Program ~meeting-~Stop Throwing Out Pollutants--with the OEC representatives for
the final review pursuant to our permit implementation and the opening of our building.
On March 2nd I attended the Code Committee meeting, which Ruth will be ,reporting
on, and On Thursday, March 3rd I attended the Brown Tide Task Force meeting.
On Tuesday, yesterday afternoon, we reviewed the RequEsts for Proposals with Or.
Eliot Epstein on our landfill, and discussed the 260 permitting from the OEC pursuant
to our hydrological testing. And that's about it, Frank. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MI~RPHY: Thank you, Ellen. Jean?
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: Yes. As I'm sure many of you are aware, we had a
meeting with the Greenport Village Trustees. I ~elt it was a positive meeting. Once
again opening up. lines of communication. We met in relation to some of the problems
at our scavenger waste plant, and also some of the problems we face in relation to
water. Then I was fortunate enough to go down to Florida and visit~ my ~daughter
~n Coco Beach for a week. It was pleasant. She's happy., and we're happy. UPon
re~urni0g on Sunday my schedule started .quite hectically. At 11:15 we did meet
with Or. Epstein and members of the OEeC and H2M in relation toour landfill--~nd
Requests for Proposals. It was our opportunity for input. Fol~ow~ng that I raced
up to Laurel Lake. As you may be aware several--at least a y~e~r~ year and a half
ago, I had developed a proposal in relation to perhaps developing Laurel Lake as
a facility which could be used b~ many of our handicapped~ and have access to
handicapped. So we do have a contract with the New York State OEC in relation
to using the area as f~shing access. The DEC felt t,h~t we could very easily begin
to open this up. as far as developing a park. So I was quite pleased. The first
thing that we're going to do, and they're going to be assisting ~us in is is as fa~
as the erosion of the bank line. The rest is to follow. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MLIRPHY: Thank you, Jean. It's an excellent start. As you realize
we've been trying to do this for man~y years; and hopefuIl with your effort it's going
to work. I know you proposed it, what three ~years ago?
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: At least two, Frank. At least two.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: George?
COUNCILMAN PENNY: Yes. On the 2~th we had a meetin~ of the Commerce and
Industry Co~mittee where we discussed several ke~y items. One was the status of
t~e Master Plan, which is going to be mentioned in resolutions later. Other items
of interest to the Chambers was the ~en acre water shed protection area, and ~he
Southold~Greenport meeting on ~ater, economic impact statements on proposed actions.
The Chamber has been proposing'that this be addressed and it is still up ~for discussion.
Oog control in general in the Town, the possibility of a Town-owned golf ~ourse~
and a memo~'~al- p!aque to be placed at the Greenport-Southold Chamber building in
memor~ of two~dedicated members of the Ch~m~ber, Harry Smith and William Smit~h.
We als~ l~ave to check into the parking lot--what's happened with our parking lot
at the Laurel Booth. That seemS' to~ be a timely--good time to be starting on it and
getting it completed, because there'~ going to be a parking problem there this summer.
I m~t also with the Village of Greenport on sewer and water, which has been reported
on. On the 3rd I attended th~ Code Committee meet~nq. That's, all. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: ~Thank you, George. Ruth?
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Thank you, Frank. On February 24th. I also attended
the Commerce and ~ndustry Committee which George has reported on. On Febr~uary
25th I attended the STOP meetinc~ with the OEC whe~e~we explained our on-site house-
hold hazardous waste building with Bob Becker. it was a constructive meeting to
iron out the details and the OEC was most impress,ec~ by our Used Battery Collection
Program. They though it was really very good. ~lso on February 25th we~had
a very good meeting with the Villac~e Trustees of Greenport. On February 29th I
MARCH 8, 1988
attended the special Brown Water Protecti~L~Are~a Advisory Committee with Valerie
Scopaz. Rick Hanley, the Riverhead Plann~er, gjave us an update on their proposed
Master Plan. The Suffolk County Oepartment of Health Services give us an excellent
presentation on the oil spills at Holtsville and Setauket. The clean up on both sites
will take up to ten years at a cost of millions of dollars. Both were cause by pipe
problems. One a lose fitting in a pipe, and the other just a quarter inch hole in
another pipe, not leakage .from the tanks itself, and I'm glad i don't live near them.
On March 2nd we had a Code Committee meeting. We discussed fences and accessory
uses in "13" and "C" zones, which there is nothing in the Code pertaining to that.
We hope to have a definition of a bluff and how to protect them from erosion. We
discuss the jurisdiction of the Trustees and the ZBA vis a vis the~Wetlands ord~nace
and the zoning. We discussed with the Trustees a proposed ordinance for an in-
kind, in-place functional bulkhead which would not need a permit. We discussed
overlapping jurisdictions, among many other things. On March 3rd I attended the
ZBA; a~d ~)r~ March 7th we met with Dr. Epstein, H2M and the DEC on Requests for
f--~-~--Proposals and the 360 permit application for the South~ld Landfill. Thank you,
Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: All right, thanks, Ruth. As you can see everybody's been
quite busy. I'd just like to add a. coup]e of little things.~i The construction permit
for the STOP Program has been received and we will have the b~]lding in place.
We have it on site. It will be in place and properly set up :by the end of the month
without any problems at all. We're making very good progress on the Landfill and
our future plans to have a landfill after 1.990. The only otlrier I would tike to comment
on--and it's I think What makes Southold Town so great~ Supday I attended the Special
Olympics for the handicapped. It was a bowling contest hel~J throug"~-0-~ut ~-uffolk
County, and this is ;their first step in going on to bigger,~ar~d better things, and
it really was : fantastic[ But the thing that was most impressive was the spirit and
the numbers of volunteers. There were senior citizens, there was the American Legion,
our own Bob Neville~ the husband of Betty Neville, who's~!the County Commander,
coordinated this whole thing for the Legion. The Lions C~lu[~, the Kiwanis, the high
schools. It really was fantastic to see all these people he[ping others who are less
fortunate than we were. One boy in particular who is a S,~nior in Mattituck High
School--five years ago came over from Vietnam, could not ~en speak the language.
He moved in with a family who volunteered to take him, did~ a fantastic job. He has
not only overcome the language barrier, but know he is an honor student in Mattituck
High School as a Senior, and he was there volunteering hi~g services to help those,
and four, five, six years ago he came from probably worse situations than some of
these handicapped adults were. So it really is fantastic to see~
II. PUBLIC NOTICES.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Moving on to the second item on the agenda'are Public 19otices.
1. It's good news for all, Oimension Cable Services, a rate increase for 1~88.
They have been doing ~ pretty good job and they have been~ most coqperative. When
I first came on to the Town Board seven, eight years ago, the biggest complaint
here, and Supervisor's Office, Bill Pell's office at the time~ used to receive I would
say literally forty, fifty complaints a day about service with Cablevision. If we get
one or two complaints a month now it really is high. The cooperation has been
fantastic.
I11. COMMUNICATIONS.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: We have two communications.
I. A concern about Cablevision payment schedules (from F. H. Boss~which
they are working out with him.
2. A letter from John F. deReeder thankinq us for the use of our Rec Center

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: I would like to comment on this. I really don't think we
should be doing this. I think we're putting the whole process in jeopardy, and I
would like to--if the Town would like to have a meeting--a meeting with the OEC
in Executive Session where they could explain to us what they're doing on their
acquistion program. I think we're putting it in jeopardy doing this at this time.
I think we're way. premature. That's my comment. And in light o'f what Ruth has
reported tonight on her discussion with the DEC.
COUNCILMAN PENNY: I have a letter here from 17 property owners that have requestec
this from the Town, and they feel ghat the,Town is their avenue, their approach,
their doorway to the OEC, and I feel that by us acting in Executive Session with
the OEC will not give the people that have requested this information the answers
directly and will not alleviate the concerns that they have. I will not read this letter
at this time, but I 'would like it read into the record--the Town Clerk's record--
since it does come from the entire group of property owners down there (this letter
is read into the record by Councilman Penny at the conclusion of the resolution part
of this meeting,).
CO~NCl LWOMAN OLIVA: May I make a comment too, Frank? I do understand that
the OEC is in possession of a letter that was written to the Governor asking him
to come down and meet with the landowners, and the Governor_'s off~ce sent a very
hi.ce letter back saying that it was not under his-jurisdiction to come down, and he
referred them again to Stony Brook here, the OEC in Stony Brook. And being as
there is not any concrete proposal at this time, the OEC in Stony Brook is still
accumulating data, map informationr appraisals, that they~ really do not have a
definitive program .at this time. I would like to have Mr. Berger come down and
explain to the Town Board first, and then if we are not satisfied with that, then
ask for an informational ~eet~ng. Thank you.

RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town o:~ Southold hereby accepts the Generic
Environmental Impact Statement with respect to the proposed "Local ,Law to amend
the Southold Town Zonincj Code and the Zoning ',Map incorporated therein,: to implement,
in whole or in part, the recommendations of the Master Plan Update prepared by
the Planning Board."
COUNCILMAN PENNY: I'd tike to make a comment at this time. We're called upon
,~ o~p~ tl~e Generic act Statement. I ju~ want to --'-- it -' .... ""* I
abstaining on this because I am not personally happy with the Generic Envi~nmental
Impact Statement, and ! am hoping that this will be passed on to the public. I don't
want to stand in the way of this being passed on to the public. I won't vote against
it. I feel that ther.e are some serious flaws in it and I hope to have the public address
them. So I wilI'b~ abst~ning on this vote.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Any other comments?
COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: Well, I think we all agreed on that today, that we find
flaws, but we're going to once again put it before the public and this is the way
to get it to the public.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: I think we have to keep in mind it's a Generic Impact.
It's not site specific, but it does state that there will be site specific impact statements
done on particular development as it comes along, so I think when it's a generic
you have to keep in mind that it's not going to go into the depth that we would like
to see at this point. I think it's: important that we accept this, and that it helps
us move along in the direction of adopting our Master Plan for this community of
Southold. I think a great deal of damage has been done because we have not to
this point put a Master Plan in place. I do not even say that our Master Plan is
a perfect~piece of work, because it certainly is not. But I feel that lit is something
that we should ger..in place, that we will have the opportunity as we work with it
to make the necessary changes. A Master Plan is a comprehensive tool that is used
in relation to planning. Our Master Plan is not carved in stone, it's fle~cible, it's
going to be reviewed yearly. But I think it's most important. Look around the
community and see what's happening. I think, it's best that we move as quickly as
we can to get this in place. Thank yob..
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: My only comment is that I think we should be doing the
zoning with it.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: Well, I think it will be confusing to the public. I think
we should deal with the environmental first, and as quickly as possible head directly
to the Master Pla~, Frank. Call for the vote.

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: George?
COUNCILMAN PENNY: Yes, at this time, for the benefit of the audience, I woul-d
like to read the letter from the Orient community, the people that feel intimidated
by the DEC and have-called on the Town to interact with the OEC and hold informative
discussions, which did not go through tonight. "Oear Councilman Penny: Sublet:t:
State Rurchase of Wetlands Around Hallocks Bay. Attached is a note from the Orient
people who own the small amount of the circumference of Hallocks Bay this is not
already protected. Orient is no different from most other country villages on Long
Island and probably in New York State. It has been "discovered" and many city
people have moved here as retirees or as weekend residents. As they move in they
like Orient and want to prohibit other people from moving in. They try to do this
by getting various branches of Government to take action such as Zoning, Building
Restriction, Public Take Over, etc. These actions and harassment of land owners
encourage rapid ]and sales and development because the developers want I~o get ahead
of proposed new regulations. This is not unique to Orient; the same thing happens
in lots of places. The theory they express is that the land should be controlled
for the good_ of the majority with apparently no concern for the interest of the land
owners. So, we land owners want you to know that we are here too, and we feel
that your plan to force us to sell is unconstitutional. In the past few years a large
part of Orient has been sold and is in various stages of development. We land owners
are among the very few who have not sold or developed land. We are not new comers,
The land has been in our families for 100 to 200,years. We want to keep it open
and we do not. want to sell. We all own land behind these wet lands which give' us
th~
access
to
water.
This
adds
a great deal to the value of the uplands. The Stat~,~:~t
threat 'to buy our land will force us into ex~.ensive legal action which is unnecessar~l'~'t:~l
No mo~'e than seven or eight houses could be built on the land not already protected
and seven or eight houses, if th*~¥-Were ever built, will not have any effect on the
bay. - Before yoiu go too far towarcf buying our land, we would like to discuss with
you other ideas that will limit building close to the water and still give us access
to the water. We, the undersigned, just wonder why the State would want to buy
the "Meadows" in Orient afte'r what has transpirted in the years since environmental
and conservation groups .have outlawed and overriden the old tried and true conservatior
practices. Since their inception, we have had a complete deterioration of our marine
resources culminating in the Brown Tide. A million dollar sxallolo industry is gone;
the' last oyster shop closed i'~s doors; mussels and -soft (:lams are a thing of the past,
though a few hard clams have survived. Also gone are the jobs associated with these
industries. Many people were able to .supplement their diets,-including senior citizens
on fixed incomes, with the _bounties of the seas. ~ we said, we want to be able

to use our wet lands for access to!"~t!-~'~,,~d we do not want to sell our meadows.
They have been in our families fox generations. Signed, Orient Meadow Land Owners
Association by: Henry Sledjeski, Lloyd E;'Terry, Henry W. Burden, Howard J. Hoey,

Latham, Jeanne Brawner, Oavid M. Brawner, Edward W. Latham, Mark S. Oroskoski."
I would have hoped that this Town would have been receptive to sit down with the
OEC and discuss, not the acquisition of the land, but the constraints that these
people would have been dealing with if the State is to fulfill this. This is all they're
asking, and l'm sorry but. tonight they didn't get this.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:
COUNCILMAN PENNY:
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:
Anything else, George?
No, thank you.
Ellen ?
COUNCILWOMAN LARSEN: I'm sure that Frank will have a letter going out first
thing in the morning, George, asking Harold Berger .to come and discuss this with
the Southold Town Board, and to review that letter and will make us aware exactly
where they are at the acquisition stage. No one has said that we are not going to
sit down and met with them, but they are in a very sensitive stage. I think what
we're really looking at here is what type of legacy will we leave roi- Southold Town
in the years to come. Yes, the Orient landowners have done an excellent job at
preserving the area today, but 50 or 100 years from now, with the increased pressures
on development, what will be left? Before we rule out. the OEC I think we should
sit down and listen to what they' have proposed. As I said before I'm familiar with
East Hampton Town, Nappauge, many areas the State have acquired have remained
relatively pristine, they're not overrun, people have access to their property, and
the assurance is given that the areas will be preserved in the future for the future.
There's very little left in Southold Town right now. Hallocks Bay is a major area.
This has been here since 1972, there has been no effort on the Town Board to acquire
Hallock-s Bay in the past and there was no effort made by the landowners to do this
in the past, and there was no effort made by the Trustees. In fact every permit
that ever came before the Trustees for house constru~:tion, no matter what the topo-
graphical elevations were, if they were 18 inches, was granted. So there is a concern
whether Hallocks Bay will remained preserved in the future. If the landowners are
concerned with the preseva~ion, if that's what they have kept forever, I think that
they can give the-Town Board another two or three weeks to sit down with Harold
Berger to find out whether their concerns are an overreaction, what the OEC is going
to offer us, and then we can take it from there.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Ellen. Jean, I'm sorry, I bypassed you.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: That's quite all right, Mr. Supervisor. Just in response
to a little of what Ellen jus~i said, I don't think the matter of ruling out the OEC--
[ think it's a matter that these people who have bee~ landowners, many of them for
100, 200, 300 years, want the right to sit down and first hand have the opportunity
for information, and I think anyone has this right, and if it was my land that I owned
[ certainly would want to have the opportunity to sit down with those that are trying
to purchase, that I could have my questions answered. And I think this is what
we were looking for, to help serve those landowners. [ have question: I'm curious
as to what Channel television is with us. this evening?
ANSWER: D!mension Cable Services, Channel 25.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN:
ANSWER: Yes.
Channel 25. Will you be recording all Board meetings?
SUPERVISOR. MURPHY: When can we see this great-event?
ANSWER: This will be on Monday night--Monday afternoon.
COUNCl LWOMAN COCHRA'N: I j~'st-~hink it's great because it certainly is a service
to the community so that more and ~ore people can see how their local government
functions. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: It's wonderful, I think. It's an excellent program, and
I might add its a part of .O imension Cable living up to the contract that .they agreed
to. I think they've done an excellent job. Ray?
JUST~.ICE EOWAROS: .Maybe I could borrow a'tape to-take ove~ to.Fishers Island
iaasm~'~:h as we d° ~ot have cabl~ over there and the.y'd probably like to see it.

MARCH 8, 1988
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Okay, I wou~d like to just make one last comment on this
Hallocks Bay thing. I think we're all talking about the same thing, and my only
concern ~$ that we don't put the whole program in ieopardy, and I don't think the
OEC has any intent of stealing, or taking any property or property rights away
from anybody° and ltd t~ate to have the program be put in a position where we're
liable not, to have the funding to acquire any part of the protection around there,
and go from there~ At this time now I'd like to ask anyone in the audience if they
would like to address the Town.Board on anything that's bothering them at all? Mr.
Merkle.
JOSEPH MERKEL: Joe Merkel, Peconic, Southold. Good evening, Mr. Murphy, and
Board members. I have done a little research into the handling of the roads on min~
subdivisions and would like to present the Town Board with some information that
I found in Southampton Town, and I've got a copy for each of .you that I'll give
to you now. I think if it's good enough for the elite and high society people of South-
ampton, then I think it's good enough for us country people here on the North Fork.
(Mr. Merkel presented "Excerpt from Chapter 60 of the Code of the Town of Southampto~
"Rules & Regulations for the Subdivision of Land". It seems that they ha~/e some
good ideas on the front page on preservation of the natural features around the area,
ancl gives a description of what a driveway would be for a minor subdivision that
they find very satisfactory for their needs.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: Frank, may I say something? Mr. Merkel, this morning
Bennie Orlowski from the~Planning Board did come in with our Planner Valerie Scopaz
and this was under discussion again. The end result of that discussion,, as Chairman
of the Highway Committee, Bennie and I are coordinating a meeting which will be
Monclay the 14th I believe we pic'ked, at 4:~00 o'clock in the afternoon where the High-
way Committee and the Planning Board will be taking this under discussion. So,
for your~ information at that time we will be meeting on this subject. No definite
decisions have been 'made. In fact, one of the suggestions that was made~ perhaps
we could get some of the regulations from surrounding communities to look at, in
addition to what the Planning Board has presented. So we certainly do appreciate
your bringing this to our attention. But no final decision has been made in relation
to this at all.
JOE MERKEL: Right. ! just wanted to pass it along.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: Okay.' Just for the information.
is Monday, the 14th, at 4:00 P.M. here at Town Hall.
And the meeting
JOE MERKEL: Also I think right: now--I think we're all aware that most.of the problems
that have come about on this matter isn't handled correctly, the ramifications of all.
the farmland and possible increasing of density and I think we went through a lot
of the different problems. The Farm 13ureau is now forming a committee to keep
abreast of some of these new proposalS, such as the core water shed area, different
regulations, polities, and road policies for minor subdivisions. Most of these things
we were unaware until they were happening to us already. We don't like surprises
so we'd like to be notified on some of these different proposals and other changes
forthcomi~lg, and we'd also like to have a meeting with the Planning Board and a
meeting with the Town Board in the near future to discuss some of these things.
1 think the current direction of the administration seems to be going off course somewhatr.
I've got a copy of some articles that were in The New York Times on February 28th, :
Supreme Court ruling. The first thing was Church v. County of LA, decided June
6th. The Court held that a zoning authority must compensate a landowner when '
it is found to have illegally prevented the owner from using his land, even temporarily.
In Nollan v.. California Coastal Commission, decided June :25, the Court ruled that
in putting conditions on development of land unrelated to the impact of the development
amounted to an effort to confiscate the land, known as a "taking" without paying
for it. This shows what can happen when the ship runs aground. I've got some
here for you. (Mr. Merkel presented to the Town Board copies of articles from the
Sunday, Feb,.ruary 18, .1988 edition of The New York-Times.)
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Joe, could we ask you-one question? Where did you get
the cot~y machine? It looks great.
JOE MERKEL: I purchased it for m~, business. I find Other uses for it too now.
Also, the second one I handed out, I think it is very important, with. builders and
such with the Town Hall. T_he Supreme Court Arms OeYelopers in Zoning Tests.
Taking of prop.erty. This is really happening here and this is The New York Times,
which I think is a pretty substantial magazine. I found that very interesting reading,
and I hope everyone upon on' the Board reads that whol.e, article. Also, 'a near neighbor,
Southampton Town, in Trupin v. Southampton. A federal jury just awarded him
1.9 n:lillion dollars, including legal fees. amounting to 3 million dolors. The Town°
insu'~'-~f~ce only covers a million dollars of that. So now the taxes could go up, 10~ '
for the next ten years go cover the cost,-of it had to be covered in one year they
83
MARCH 8, 1988
would go up by 60% for all the taxpa~;~'~:s~%Uthampton Village. So I don't think
anyone can be too happy with this ruling~ except for Mr. Trupin is smiling quite
a bit on thiscoverage as you can see. He's real happy. So I think these events
should shed some light on the current proposals and policies that are now pending.
Thank you. Joe Merkel.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Joe. Anyone else on the left like to address
the Town Board? [No response.) In the middle? John?
JOHN NICKLES: John Nickles of Southold. I just had a question on the resolutions
that i would like some explanation as to 35(a) and ~b) and 36. Are they related,
where the Board abolishes the Accountant position and creates the Bookkeeper position?
Could you explain to us what's going on.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: It was a position that was appoinLed because there was no
list, and we established as an Accountant for a_ man we hired, John Cushman. And
according to the Civil Service, he would not be eligible to take the test when it was
given. We're very pleased with his services and in Town Law the Supervisor is
allowed an assistant, and also a Bookkeeper. Larger towns are allowed--they call
them a Comptroller. This is not a Civil Service position, he serves at the will of
the Supervisor, the appointment of the Supervisor, and the Town Board and I are
very pleased with his work, and this is to give him a little more security, and to
exempt his position from Civil Service. Then we just eliminated the position of
Acco,~ntan~ because we don't intend to fill it. Anyone else in the middle? (No
response.) Over here on the right? Yes?
MARTIN SIOOR: Good evening. My name is Martin Sidor, and listening to this situatio~
at Hallocks Bay with the wetlands, I feel as a farmer in Southold Town, with this
water core overlay district, whatever, ! feel we're in the same boat. It was funny,
I was thinking of something--this is not easy for me, first of all. I'm much more
comfortable being i~ a field and watching over the crops and other problems to take
care--and trying to think of something to say tonight, I got a charcle out of the
word "legacy". I think that these people you're mentioning--100, 2~}0, 300 years,
we're not--my family not quite that long, but as a legacy I can't think of a group
of people, the farmers in Southotd Town, that has given Southold Town more of a
legacy and asked of less of this Town, as a group, than the Southold farmer. And
I think if anything like this comes close, nothing more than a slap in the face. I
have no statistics, I have no fact. s as. far as cluster versus sprawl, open area versus
cluster as far as the recharge area. As far as the pollution of the water, of the
air, but I think our record stands. Our family has been 75 years in one particular
area. Grandparents where I'm Ii¥ing, have lived in it until their 90's. t do not
have numbers, I do not have facts right now, it's just a feeling; and it comes from
my heart. I'm just looking to preserve what I've got given to me for my family,,
and to have an agency or group of people that can even come close interfering with
that I think Has been given too much power.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Martin, let me make--are you finished? I'm sorry.
MARTIN SIOOR: Go ahead.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Are you finished?
MARTIN SIOOR: Go ahead. I don~t know.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:- l~m very sorry you feel that way, because.l sincerely believe
that this To. wn Board and previous Town Boards of South01d Town have gone out
of their way to support and to help the farmer. I think what you're 'talking about
on this overlay district is information you got from a letter that is probably the most
misleading, inaccurate piece of mail that I think has ever gone out, and the worst
scare tactics that I've seen anyone do to a group of people. Southold Town has
no intention of_ hurting the farmer or putting His life in jeopardy, and his value of
his property~. -I think what we've ~tone is try to support the farmer and to help
the farmer. W..hat you're talking about is completely misinterpreted, and is not the
intent'of"the Town Board or' the Water AdviSOry Committee, and at -th s point is not
even part of a plan. It was just'"a~n-idea and a development of a way so that your
children and their children will have safe drinking water in this Town for many,
many years to come. That's the whole purpose of it, and it was not there, and it
will not hurt the farmer at all.
COUNCILWOMA~I OLIVA: Frank, could I just say something? When this proposal
is finally in place, every property owner in that proposed core water shed area will
be invited in to meet with the Town. There will be give and take between the members
of the Advisory Committee .and the property owners. Our wish i~ not to hurt any
p~!',opert~ owner or the equity in their land. Our purpose is to find the best way
to preserve our water shed area so that we will be able to have wa[er not .lust five
years from now, but 50 years from now. But it's ._n.~ot our intention to take any of
the equity'away from the property owner's land at'~tl, and will have that informational
meeting with all the proper~y owners. We want their i'nput. Thank you.
MARCH 8, 1988
MARTIN SIDOR: No, it did not come from that letter, the information. I told you
I have no facts, I have no statistics, l'm unaware of that. It's just my own feeling.
Maybe another reason for uncomfortableness is that the meeting with the Hallock Bay
peop]e--first you'll meet with the DEC and then the people, and I would be more
comfortable if the meeting came first with the landowners and then people from t ne
outside.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: I think we're talking about two different things, but that's
your opinion. That's fine.
COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN: He's expressing his philosophy as a farmer that loves
the land. ~
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: And I think this Town Board has, and previous. Town Boar
in Southold have.done everything we can to support that there will be farming out
here, not only this year but for many, many years to come, I think this has been
our primary industry for 300 years and we hope that it stays for another 300 years.
MARTIN SIOOR: Well, that's good to hear. I still feel--you hear remarks and one
leads you to think one way and one',leads you to think another way, and sometimes,
you know, you being in the middle of this that it does leave for a sense of insecurity.'
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Absolutely nothing has been passed, nothing has been done
on this. It's a concept and a plan that is completely been blown out of the original
intent, and the whole thing has been completely turned around to what the intent
was, and i'm very sorry that yo.u feel that way, because I do know many members
of the Sidor family, including yourself, who have worked for many years and have
given this Town an awful..Iot, and this is why Southold Town is such a pleasant and
a nice place to be, live and work' in. And we intend to keep it that way.
MARTIN S1DOR: Well, I don't mean ,to give the impression that I've got hard feelings
without know the facts. The next question I would like to know is when would the
facts be given, when could we fired out, or is anything in place now to look at or
study ? :
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Absolutely not. This was just a theory that's being develo]~, ~
and as Ruth mentioned there will be, as this plan' is developed, as parcels are
priorities set aside, that then there will be a pubhc hear.ng and a g~ve and take,
in particular with. anyone whose property would fall in that area.
MARTIN SIOOR: So the time schedule would be similar to Hallocks Bay, where first
the DEC .....
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: Oh, no, the-DEC has nothing to do with 'this .....
MARTIN SIOOR: No, I'm sorry, I take that back, okay? It's not the DEC involved
in this. Okay? Whether it's a subcommittee or committee, but first that's formed--
in their case it would be the DEC, and then .the people come second. That's my
point. In other words it's not the DEC, not the EPA, whatever group comes in first,
and then the landowners come in second.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:' We're concerned about the people of Southold Town, the
health and welfare of the people of Southold Town, not only for their assetS, the
drinking water, but also for their way of life and this is what we're concerned about.
We have no intention of hurting anybody or taking any property away.
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: As far as the water shed area, how can we come to you
and ask your opinion when the Water Advisory Committee does not have any even
definite proposals, to offer you, to ask for your input? This is what we're working
on. Identifying each 'of the properties in that area, what is presently contained
in these properties, what uses do they have now, and then worl~ from there .for a ~
proposal wh'ich- we: :can give to you'and ask for your input into such a proposal.~.
So this is before it would come to the Town ~3oard-for a hea~ing or anything else.
This ~ould go--when we have the proposal in place, to first go to the property owners
and find out their feelings on Jt.~"--Obes it meet with their approval before we even
propose it to the Town Board for a-Local Law.
COUNCILMAN PENNY:
They meet once. a month. Their meetings are open to the public. As a matter of
fact we have two openings right now. We've advertised for resumes to fill them.
And I feel it would be important' if a member of the farming community Were to become
a member of the Water Advisory Committee and they could directly participate in
the formulation of these Town policies, and they wouldn't get the' feeling, the same
as t'J~;:Orien~ people are, that bureaucracy is putting them second, and I agree with
you on your fe~ling that you've gotten from this and this is the same feeling of ex-
asperation that the Orie~ community is getting. They simply ask to clear up from
Why..don't you come and meet with the Water Advisory Committee?
85
MARCH 8, 1988
the DEC what their policies are. They don't care if the DEC buys their land or
doesn't buy their land at this point, they don't want to, but that's not the question.
The question is if their property is taken away from them by one means or another,
what are the restrictions and restraints that they're going to have to live with for
the rest of their lives. That's all they've asked, and this has been denied them.
And I think there's a perfect opportunity for you to participate, or members of your
farm community, to participate in the formulation of these policies so you don't feel
like outsiders here in your own Town.
MARTIN SIOOR: Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Try to--Martin,if you would, as George said, or someone
who you .feel would represent the farmers well, put an application in. You've got
another week or so, and it's a very simple--"l would like to serve on it, and here's.
how I qualify: I'm~ a landowner in Southold." Whatever. Okay? Anyone else in
the middle like to~comment? (No response.) On the right? {~No response.) Anyone
else? (No respon~e.) If not I think a motion to adjourn is in order, and I'd like
to thank everyon~for coming, in particular Oimension Cable. Thank you.
