MARCH 27, 1984.
WORK SESSION
9:15 A.M. - The Board met with Paul J. Flag~, Marine Scientist, to discuss
the 1984 Seed Clam CultUre Pro~lram. Mr. Flagg, who ran the program for
the past two years reviewed the exceptional survival and growth over that
period of time, proving that Southold Town waters may be the ideal for rafting
clams; some of the clams reached marketable size in 20 months. Supervisor
Murphy explained that the Town is looking this year for, careful,controlled
expansion of the program and scientific advice. Mr. Flagg outlined his 1984
proposal, which is '$7,000.00 for the ,scientifii: development of the program, and
stated he is. certain' he can obtain grant funding for the Town in an amount up
to $20,000.-00, stating there is. considerable Economic 'Development money available
for this type of program. He said' his proposal includes running the program,
monitbring monthly, and inspe~:tions every two weeks. He would also meet every
two weeks with the committee (Mr. Flagg, Superintendent of Highways Dean,
Bay Constable Dzenkowski, one member of the Town Trustees and one member
of the Town Board) to. determine long-term goals, and suveys of the Town creeks
to determine the most suitable areas for rafts and planting in the future. The
Board will discuss and further study Mr. Flagg's proposal before reaching a
decision.
10:15 A.M. - Fishers Island Ferry District Commissioners Reynolds duPont, Jr.,
Chairman, and Thomas F. Doherty, Jr., and Manager-Secretary Robert P. Kauff,
met with the Board to discuss awarding the contract for management of Elizabeth
Airport on Fishers Island. They expressed their satisfaction with the present
manager, Richard Grebe, and the attention he gives the airport. They rejected
the bid'of New London Flying Service due.to the increase in' traffic that could
be expected. Further, there is a need for two garages on Fishers Island, and
Mr. Grebe utilizes part of the airport building for a garage facility. The new
contract is basically the same as the present one, with three minor changes:
(1) required daily inspection of the r~unway lighting system, (2) termination
- clause; (3) three year contract (prior one was five years). Opposition to the
Town paying landing fees was discussed. It was explained that this is part
of the operator's income and Mr. duPont suggested that the Town Board
discuss this directly with the operator.--The Board briefly discussed the
purchase of the U. S. Government property on Fishers Island.
10:40 A.M. -Mr. Stanley Gould, representative of Dr. Francis Perrone, met
with the Board to discuss Dr. Perrone's application for a Wetland Permit on
Gids Island, Orient. Dr. Perrone owns Gids Island-and wishes to contract
a catwalk, floating dock and a summer home there. Due to the controversy
concerning the proposed project, Mr. Gould explained to the Board that the
materials would be brought in by boat or possibly a prefabricated house floated
in at high tied and placed on 7½ foot high stilts. Consideration is also being
given to flying everything in by helicopter. He assured the Board that Dr.
Perrone has no intention of developing the property or disturbing the terrain.
Mr. Gould as advised that any further information concerning the proposed
application should be presented when a public hearing is held on the matter.
11:00 A.M. - Mr. Eugene Drum came before the Board to di.scuss what he
described as a severe drainage problem on Henry's Lane, Peconic (subdivision
known as Peconic Knolls). Mr. Drum is involved in the construction of a
home on Henry's Lane and has researched the background on the release of
the performance bond on that road. He stated that on July 29, 1983 there
was a letter from Superintendent Dean recommending certain improvements
to be made. According to Planning Board Inspector Davis' report of August
25, 1983, the work that was done did not correspond to Mr. Dean's recommenda-
tions, however, the bond was released. Mr. Drum said that there is a pond
area there and a bulldozer sunk into it, causing great expense. He is asking
the Board to provide fill to fill the pond. Mr. Dean said that it is all clay
in that area, and he is certain there is an underground spring. The Highway
Committee will look at the site on Monday, April 2nd.
M~RCH 27, 1984
11:15 A.M. - The Board discuss the!~en~a[~o~l%a ,room in the Fishers Island
Theatre from the l~erry District for the us~"0'f Justice Edwards. Justice Edwards
said there would be more security there than he presently has at the Firehouse,
but there is some work that must be done on the room before he can occupy it.
The District requires separate utilities, and access to the room during the movie
theatre season, as the stairs to the projection booth are located therein. The
necessary painting and repairs, can be done by the Highway Department. Further
arrangements will be made to facilitate the move.--Discussion was also held with
Justice Edwards relative to paying his wife for court clerk services. Justice
Edwards submitted a petty cash. voucher for this payment and they were pulled
from the audit by Supervisor Murphy as being improper. Supervisor Murphy
questioned the need for a clerk, since Justice Edwards did not have one court
case in January, and only one case in February. Justice Edwards said that
his monthly reports, which the Supervisor was citing, did not reflect the amount
of work involved, there is-more than meets the eye where his duties are concerned.
He further stated that $1,500.00 was put in the 1984 Budget to cover services
of a clerk on Fishers Island. He explained that his wife spends at least seven
hours a week on his Justice Court work and COuncilman work. SUpervisor
Murphy stated there is no provision made for paying the wives of Councilmen.
Town Attorney Tasker questioned the possibility of a conflict of interest under
the General Municipal Law, and was asked to research it and submit an opinion.
11:30 A.M. - James R. Douglass, Sanitation Supervisor, met with the Board to
discuss his new position. He said he looks forward to working as a team with
the Board and Superintendent of Highways Dean. Whereas there is a conference
being held in Boston on composting and landfill management, beginning on March
29th, it was the decision of the Board to amend thei~ appointment of Mr. Douglass
from April 1st to March 27th to enable him to attend as a Town employee.
11:35 A.M. - A brief discussion was held concerning the. contract with the North
Fork Animal Welfare League, Inc., the Village of Greenport, and the Town. The
League has proposed additional changes to the proposed contract, which calls
for a cap on the number of dogs they will take, and the Town cannot put that
into the COntract. Councilman Townsend will:meet with representatives of the
League to discuss this.--The letter of the Cutchogue-New Suffolk Historical
Council concerning the preservation of Fort Corchaug was discussed. Their
letter will be referred to the Planning Board for consideration under the master
plan update. --The decision of the Village of Greenport to revise their reassess-
ment of the Town property at Beach Road, Greenport, was discussed. The
new assessment was only reduced $250.00. Supervisor Murphy will attempt to
negotiaie with the Village for a lower assessment.
11:50 A.M. - Mr. Frederick F. Meyer, Director of Plannin9 for the Town of
Smithtown met with the Board to discuss planning techniques of his department.
Mr. Meyer joined the Town Board for lunch to continue their discussion.
12:20 P.M. - Recess for lunch.
1:55 P.M. - Work Session reconvened. - Mr. William Mullen, member of the
Southold Town Planning Board addressed the Board concerning research he
has done on available funding to assist in the payment of the master plan
report. As long as the Town has a Conservation Advisory Council, it would
meet the criteria for funding. Mr. Mullen was asked to discuss this with
Community Development Administrator Jim McMahonr-Mr. Mullen also presented
resumes from Robert Scheiner and Richard Hanley who presently work as
planning assistances for the Town of Riverhead.--He advised the Board he
has had a discussion with Planning Board Chairman Henry Raynor who is
resigning his position as of April 30th, but would be willing to work as a
consultant to the Town Board and Planning Board for the completion and
implementation of the updated Master Plan. -
1:15 P.M. - Letter from Chief Winters. concerning cleaning of Police Headquarters
was discussed. A resolution (No. 22) was placed on the agenda to employ two
part-time custodial works for Police Headquarters and other assignments.-The
need for additional funding for the proposed Scavenger Waste Treatment P'lant
was discussed. Supervisor Murphy stated H2M has received a letter from the
DEC confirming the Town will receive the additional funding needed. Town
.... Attorney Tasker advised the Board that once the Town has received this letter
from the DEC, he will apply to the State Comptroller for conser~]t t~-i~crease
the bond amount for the project. This will require a resolution, and publication
of the proposed icnrease.--Councilman Stoutenburgh questioned the status of
the roads in Hiqhland Estates, Cutchogue. There is a bond for the completion
and improvements of the roads which has been in effect for a number of years,
but the roads are still inadequate. The owner of the property, Richard Mohring,
will be invited to meet with the Board during the April 10th Work Session.
The Board discussed their interview for Planning Consultants, and the
majority of the Board was in agreement that I~'~vid Emilita of Szepatowski Assoc-
iates Inc. was their choice. Mr. Emilita will be invited to again meet with the
Board to discuss the terms of a contract for his services.

I. REPORTS.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: We will move on to the first order of business, the
Reports. I'd like to comment that these reports are on file in the Town Clerk's
Office for anyone to see.
1. Justice Edwards for'the month of February (1984) on Fishers Island.
2. Fishers Island Shellfish Reseeding Programs. (From Steve Malinowski.)
3. Justice Tedeschi's Annual Report for 1983.
4. Councilmen's reports. Councilman Schondebare?
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: I'd just like to report that we did have a
meeting between Mr. Stoutenburgh, myself and Jim McMahon with regards to
establishing a recreation facility department in the Town of Southold. We
interviewed the town recreation coordinator for the Towns of Southampton
and Riverhead and Southampton has something like over $750,000 budgeted,
and they get something back in the neighborhood of $350,000, back from fees
from their beaches over there on the Ocean. We're just totally out of league
with them.' We're somewhat closer to Riverhead, but we're still working on
that. If Paul has anything else he wants to add on that?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: No, that's it.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Jay. Joe?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: A couple of things. I met with several people,
or several parents of handicapped children, Mrs. LePre, Mrs. Kujawski, and
Mrs. Cardona, to try to establish a program that I imagine will have to run
MARCH 27, 1984
hand and glove with-our regular--with this new proposal Jay was just talking
about. We're trying to establish a recreation program that will allow the
approximately 22 physically handicapped children in Town to participate in
some sports that other people in the Town participate in. They are going
to form a committee that's representative of, I think, of each area, and
the first thing, since we're so late i.nto the year,, is to try to work out a
program that works around--that revolves around our swimming program,
which is What they had originally requested. Hopefully it will be expanded
somewhat. I did talk to Jim McMahon, briefly. I didn't have a chance to
report to the Board, and we feel that we can do something that will cost a
little bit less than what they Were originally asking. In the neighborhood
of about $10.00 per handicapped child, according to Bob Muir, and then
by the end of the year we should have a program that we can apply to the
budget for next year.--Secondly, i attended the hearing that Greenport was
having on the Mills situati'on, where they are establishing a new plant in the
Village of Greenport, and I understood that the Supervisor was going to speak
opposing the tax exemption, which would result in the Town losing potential
taxes, and he was detained unavoidably and I spoke almost as articulately as
I'm ,speaking now on that issue. There were some other things, but I can't
remember them off hand, so--
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Joseph. Paul?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: I'd like to, bring you up on the Inland
,Waterways, I'm Chairman of that group. There is always the annual thing
of c~edging our. creeks, maintenance dredging of our creeks, and I've passed
out to each of you a Iisi of the creeks that have been suggested in somewhat
of a priority, and have confirmed these, to some extent r with Mr. Guldi who
is head of the Public W'orks of the County, who does the dredging and what
have you in our Town, and I'll just read them off for the public's information.
The first one, of course, is the New Suffolk boat ramp, and this is most
important because this is where our flounder fishing people come from, and
the number two priority, or one priority, it could be either way, Goldsmith's
Inlet, which our Superintendent of Highways reported is in pretty plugged up
condition right now. Then we move down to Brushes Creek and Brushes Creek
is the first, creek in our Town, in Laurel, down on the Bay. Then we go to
Boatman's Harbor. These are all created by the problem of sand moving along
our beaches, which is a natural occurance, and then we have to remove this
sand and usually we place the sand, usually, down drift whenever we can.
Then there's one at Coreys Creek, which was never quite finished from last
year, there was tongue of sand there we'd like removed. Cedar Beach, which
is always a problem, this is number six. Little Creek, which is just ahead of
Nassau Point, just before you come to Nassau Point and the Causeway. This
one fills in and you can walk across it almost. And so the last one would be
Port of Egypt, and Port of Egypt has a new problem that they are having a
tongue of sand coming to the west of them. IJsuaIly the sand was at the east
end, this year it's at the west end and they'd like that removed. And the
last one I have is West Lake which is a new one and has to have a lot more
work done on it before we can jump right into it, and that's why I have a
question mark at the end of that one. West Lake is a small inlet down in
Bayview. It was done years ago by a clamshell bucket and whether or not
the Town wants to get involved in' that, I don't know, but we'll have to be
working on that. But that's the report and that's what we're suggesting to
do.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: -Thank you, Paul. Anything else? Paul?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: No, nothing else.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Judge Edwards?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Nothing, thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: I would like to report I did travel up to Albany with
the other Supervisors in Suffolk County and hopefully--in a lobbying effort to
.get an increase in State Aid. There's two plans before them. One will increase
about $57,000, and another one, if they iust use the same formula and use the
· 1980 census instead of the I970 census figure, we would increase almost $100r000.
We really won't know. I spoke to Assemblyman SaWicki yesterday, and we really
won't know until the budget is 'finalized, hopefully on the first of April.--We had
Paul Flacjg, on our Clam Seeding Program, in this morning and hopefully at our
next meeting we'll have a resolution on to see what we're going to do as far as
monitoring our very successful Seed Clam Program.

Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilman Schondebare, Councilman
Stoutenburgh, Justice Edwards, Councilman Townsend, Supervisor Murphy.
This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED.
Moved by Justice Edwards, seconded by Councilman Stoutenburgh, it was
RESOLVED that the application of Martin'Sidor for renewal of his single
'family house trailer permit, which expires on March 23, 1984, for trailer
located at the south side of Oregon Road, Mattituck, New York, be and
hereby is granted for a six (6) month period.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Any questions?
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: I have a question. We're constantly doing
these things. When do they ever run out? Every six months ad infinitum.
TOWN CLERK TERRY: We have to do them every six months.
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: Okay.
Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilman Schondebare, Councilman

Schick a 45 ~tay extension to April:. :1'6, 1984 to return to the Town Board with
a demolition or reconstruction plan for the Orient Point Inn, pursuant to Chapter

consent, in writing, to the aforementioned decision be filed with the Town Clerk
as soon as possible.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: I'd like to discuss this.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Joe, go ahead.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Well, this is for the sake of the people here. This
is about the third--this is the end of about the third six month extension we
have given him--at least third six month extension. It's unfortunate that a
building that has this much history, and is this old, has to be demolished, but
the Town Board, I don't feel, feels there's any alternative. I did get a call
from somebody from the New York Times who had been talking to somebody in
the Long Island Department of Antiquities and they were wondering why we were
tearing it down and I explained, basically, what we discussed. If, within 45
days, they come up with a concrete plan to save this building and restore it,
which I sincerely doubt, at that time we might deal with it, but it would have
to be a concrete plan and, unfortunately, it looks as though there's no other
way to go, other than to tear it down, because the zone change that they were
looking for did not go through.
MARCH 27, 1984

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: I'd like to reopen the Regular Town Board Meeting and
move on to the 5th resolution, support for raising the drinking age.
Moved by Justice Edwards, seconded by Councilman Stoutenburgh~ it was
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby goes on record
in support of proposed legislation - S.1569 by New York State Senator Padavan,
et al, A.2681A by New York State Assemblyman Zimmer, et al, and A8609 by
New .YOrk State Assemblyman at the request of Governor Cuomo -- to raise the
drinking age in New York State from 1.9 to 21 years, and be it further
RESOLVED that the Town Board hereby urges New York State Senator Kenneth
P. LaValle and New York State Assemblyman Joseph Sawicki, Jr. to support the
enactment of the aforementioned legislation at this session of the Legislature.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Any questions?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Well, I'll comment. This is a difficult issue, because
I know many of the establishments that serve liquor in the Town, that offer
bonifide entertainment and music for people that are between--that are college
students, between 19 and 20, who do it, object to this, and I know that if I
was sitting in the audience at the age of 19 I'd probably have a gun loaded and
ready for what i'm about to vote for, but I think that iust the one tragedy every
now and then that's caused by someone who's had too much to drink and maybe
has a little less judgment than somebody who's over 21 might have, justifies the
passage of this particular resolution supporting the legislation. Once again, it's
another one of those difficult things and I have sympathy for the owners of these
establishments; they're going to lose a lot of money, but that's the overall -good
that's being served by this, I think.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you. Any other comments?
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: Yes. ! have a problem with this 'one. I've
always subscribed to the belief that if you're old enough for your country and
your state to induct you into the service, get shot at and be killed, you're old
enough to have a beer, but on the other hand there's been enough statistics
to convince me that this age category the DWI deaths are too high, so I'll
vote for it.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Any other comments? (No response.)
Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilman Schondebare, Councilman
Stoutenburgh, Justice Edwards, Councilman Townsend, Supervisor Murphy.

Stoutenburgh, Justice Edwards, Councilman Townsend, Supervisor Murphy.

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Number 7 is the use of Town roads.
Moved by Councilman Stoutenburgh, seconded by Supervisor Murphy, it was
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby grants the
Mattituck High School Student Council permission to use Town roads on May
12, 1984, beginning at 9:30 A.M.t to conduct a "Run for Rodney" fund-raising
event on behalf of the Rodney Bates Leukemia Fund, and be it further
RESOLVED that the Town Board hereby authorizes and directs Chief H. Daniel
Winters to make the necessary arrangements to provide, assistance by the Southold
Town Police Department during the aforesaid ~'Run for Rodney."
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: I'd like to comment on this. This. came about from a
letter from a Chris Finnigan who's the president of the Mattituck High School
Student Council requesting this. The school has done an awful lot to raise
money and the children in the school, for Rodney Bates, who is a Junior, and
who has a severe case of Leukemia, but hopefully through the prayers and the
money and all that has helped support him, from the whole community, this boy
is on his way to recovery, I don't know how complete, I hope it is, but they
ought to be commended. Any other questions on it?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Yes.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes, Ray?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: I'd just like to make a little statement. Before I retired
and moved back to Fishers Island I was very involved in forming a radio club
over in Groton-New London area and putting up a two meter-ham repeater,
and over, I'd say, the past ten years, this radio club has been involved in
walk-a-thons, these marathons and so forth, to the tune of about I'd say a half
a dozen a year in the Groton area, and I'm surprised they don't have the ham
participation out here. I brought my ham equipment over here at times, from
the Island, and it's very difficult. I know there's hams out here, but they
just--it's very difficult to find anyone on the air to talk to, and this "Run for
Rodney", if this were in Groton-New London-Waterford-Mystic area, we would
have at least ten or fifteen amateur radio operators along this whole run.
Thank you, Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Ray.
Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilman Schondebarer Councilman
Stoutenburgh, Justice Edwards, Councilman Townsend, Supervisor Murphy.~
This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Resolution No. 8 came about from a letter I received
from a Terry Glover, and I believe--Terry, are you in the audience? (Yes)
This was a letter received asking for the support of the Town Board. Again
we're very proud of the young people ~n this Town. I'd like to read the
resolution and the proclamation, and we do have one here to present to you
girls, and I appreciate your coming to our meeting, and we tried to get to
Number 8 before the public hearings, but I'm sure they were interesting to
you. Maybe a little boring, but you could see at least the Town Board has
been working. We started at 9:00 o'clock this morning on this.
Moved by Supervisor Murphy, seconded by Councilman Schondebare,
WHEREAS, Girl Scouting has exemplified and enhanced those qualities of
womanhood most admired, and encouraged many young women to choose careers

WHEREAS, the Girl Scouts of America have fostered the growth of character,
self-reliance, integrity, development of talent, and love of God and Country~ and
WHEREAS, Girl Scout Cadette Troop #1593, Cutchogue, New York, is participating
in a "Help Young America Campaign," sponsored by Colgate Palmolive, and has
formulated an ambitious and, challenging program to change a wooded area into
a campground for youth groups in their area, and
WHEREAS, the program being undertaken by Girl Scout Cadette Troop #1593 is
viewed upon by the Town Board of the Town of Southold as a highly commendable
project, a means of helping others and encouraging youth participation and
involvement in a most worthwhile endeavor, now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby proclaims the
week of April 8th through 14th, 1984 as HELP YOUNG AMERICA WEEK in the
Town of Southold.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Terry, would you like to come up with your girls?
Come on up, all of you girls. (Supervisor Murphy presented the Proclamation
MARCH 27, 1984
to the girls from Girl Scout Cadette Tr~p #1593, Cutchogue.) And if we
could
help you In your proJect, let us know.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: I kind of think we ought to say something
about young girls and the leaders of young girls. Without the leaders, we
don't have young girl's groups. We appreciate that.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thanks for your patience.
Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilman Schondebare, Councilman
Stoutenburgh, Justice Edwards,- Councilman Townsend, Supervisor Murphy.
This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Okay, move on to Resolution No. 9, lead agency.
MRS. JEAN TIEDKE, Southold: Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes?
MRS. TIEDKE: I'm sorry, i was at County Legislature all morning and half
the afternoon, and could I just make a short statement?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes, Jean, go ahead.
MRS. TIEDKE: I'm concerned about all these wetland applications. Who
inspects after the work has been done, or while the work is being done, to
make sure they are really following the outline that is put to them to follow?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: The Building Inspectors.
MRS. T1EDKE: I know the DEC has, complained because they are short-handed
and short-funded. They are no longer able to check on these things, which
they give the permit and then they. can't check on them. The Corps of Engineers
is notorious for not checking on small jobs, and what's the expertise of the
Building Department?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: The constraints of the application.
TOWN CLERK TERRY: They're the inspection officers under the Wetland
Ordinance.
MRS. TIEDKE: I know that, but they know how a bulkhead should be built
or where it should be built?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: They know the dimensions, yes.
TOWN CLERK TERRY: They get a copy of the permit and the application.
MRS. TIEDKE: Yes, but what else to they know? Do they know about what
happens to the bottom? Do they know whether the bottom has been disturbed
more than it should have been? All these other questions. Do they know whether
the natural grasses have been disturbed? Or replanted as they said th~e~y were
going do? Who follows up on that?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Paul, is there something in the Trustees to make a
final inspection ?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: In the Trustees the only thing they have is
that when a job is. complete there's a tear-off sheet at the bottom which they
must pull off and vouch for what was given in the permit. In other words--
MRS. TIEDKE: Who is "they"?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: The Trustees, the Town Trustees. They
appoint one Trustee to go to that particular bulkhead or dock, or whatever
was put up, inspect it, see that the number is on it. There's a regular
check list that they have. They then tear off the sheet, the owner does,
signs his name to it, statinq that he has complied with the permit that was
given by the Trustees. That's only for the Trustees. "It has nothing to
do with the Wetlands Permit. Now, whether or not the wetlands and the
other are almost the same and they could do both at the same time, but the
jurisdiction is in two different bodies as of now, and as far as I know the
only real check is this one that the Trustees get back because we have a
statement that says that this was done, and if they find anything different
they can then hold the person responsible.
MRS. TIEDKE: Well, perhaps it should 'be strengthened somehow. I'm not in
a position to say how.

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: We'll look into it, Jean.
MARCH 27, 1984

just like to discuss it, that's all.
I'd
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: I recommend this Ralph Williams, because if
you know the old house out in Orient, what is it, the Tavern? He's the
one that's rehabilitating that and if you looked at his background, he belongs
to all the historical societies, I think, on Long Island.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: I saw his resume, yes.

COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Were there any other applications, other than Mr.
Peters and Mr. Williams?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: No.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: No other applications?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: No. We had thought that Mr.--we had interviewed
Bill Peters for the Solar Energy Commission, if you remember, and we found the
architect might be more appropriate in that position, and so we felt his credentials
were so strong, Peters, that we held on to him for---
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: For the Landmark Preservation Commission.

COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Okay, I see it.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: This piano would, cost--a used one like this would cost
us about $1,000.00. A new one would cost about $2,500.00, and he feels it's
worth fixing.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: The only thing I thought, is there any kind
of guarantee with this work that he does. When you use epoxy glue, it doesn't
always work.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: No, i don't think so, Paul.
COUNCl LMAN
or something
COUNCILMAN
STOUTENBURGH: I mean, there should be a 60 day guarantee,
like that, I would think.
SCHONDEBARE: It's a one-sided agreement.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Well, we either make the decision to buy a new one
or to fix it. He's probably--
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: He's pretty reliable, I understand. He came recommended
by the Senior Citizen Clubs to do the repairs.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: And actually the bridge is not--he could replace the
bridge if he has to. I'll go along with it, based on what he's going to do.

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: That's the end of the prepared and amended Town
Board agenda. Is there any Councilman would like to make any comments?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Yes, I would like to make a comment that
before we act on this Silverman application, that we all go down and visit
this site.. I think it's a most important one, and as you can see, very
concerned project, and unless you see it, you can'! believe it, I think, and
so you should go down and see this. I think it's something everyone should
take upon themself. I'd be glad to drive down there and show you where it
SIJPERVISOR MURPHY: Okay, anyone in the audience like to comment? Ruth?
MRS. RUTH OLIVA, President, North Fork Environmental Council: I just wanted
to say that I agreed with Councilman Townsend this morning, wholeheartedly. I
do not feel that Mr. Gould should have been allowed to speak before the Town
Board when he had- an application in for a wetlands hearing. I just donJt think
it's right. ! mean, if you're going to hear him speakv then somebody from the
other side should be allowed to come before the Board also. That is the purpose
of having the public hearings. It's at the time of the public hearings, not before.
I really object to it. And while.we're handing out statements regarding the project,
I did speak to Chuck Hamilton yesterday afternoon, late, and he informed me that
there will'be no permits given for Gids Island because that piece of land is proposed
for State acquisition. Period.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, we just did hear from other people.
MRS. OLIVA: YOU did. He 9ot his in, I got mine.
MR. BARTH: I was going to say almost exactly the same thing. It seems to me
that in bending over backwards to hear all the people, and being very polite,
you're opening up a can of worms, because what you're going to do is you're
going to have a hearing before a hearing. If you have a hearing scheduled, why
give someone any opportunity to state his~ case and the opposition will want to
state their case and before you know it you'll be having a hearing at a work
session and I don't think that that's right.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: I'd like to start right now and agree with you,
I think. And I think maybe it should be the policy of the Board from now on
not to do this.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: I believe it was the policy of the Board.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: Always has been.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Always was, and therefore we were in error.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: Well, I've expressed it so many times, practically
once a month.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Well, you weren't here. That's why we like
to have you here at these Work Sessions.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: --for the last five years. Somebody must have
heard it.
MR. STUART HARVEY, Southold: I think it's time you made your mind up on
something. That's bulkheads. We get into this--I guess for four years I've
been listening to it. They always come up with a.deal they can't go backwards,
so we lose a foot and a half. Okay, let's start charging them, say $50.00 a
square foot for every foot they take away and put it on the assessments.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Beautiful idea.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: That's a good idea.
MR. HARVEY: They pay the cash down, whatever it is, and every other year
they're going to get hit with a bigger assessment.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: I think there's one issue about this that you're
going to have to consider. You're not conveying any land. You are giving a
permit to use public lands to put up a structure, just as you permit catwalks
over public lands. You are just giving a permit. You're not conveying any
land.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: In other words, we're giving a permit to fill on top
of our land.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: Yes.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: In other words, is that a lien on their property, then,
if they sell they have to--I mean, what kind of--if it's not their land, and yet
they're deeding the right to the use of it.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: This is really nothing new, it's been going on for
two hundred years. The federal government does it, the State of New York
does it, the County does it, the Towns do it. You're not conveyin~l title to
land. You're permitting the upland owner to make use of the public land in
front of him. That's ususally a reparian right that he already had. It's a
commonlaw right.
MARC 27, 984 105
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: But you're ~aking away the right of the public
to use that. ---
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: That you are to some extent. To a minor extent
you've deprived the public of eighteen inches of land, but you haven't conveyed
title to it, you still own it.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: So you're point is still well taken. We can maybe work
out_a system of charges for dominating that land, or for using that land.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: What do you do with the docks?
MR. HARVEY: Charge them.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: You charge them so much a square foot.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: The Trustees do?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Sure they do.
TOWN ATTORNEY TASKER: For the square footage of underwater land that
they use for the dock.~
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Just for the dock.
MR. HARVEY: Another thing I believe--at least I know it happens over on the
South Shore, the land was always clear--the water rather, always came to high
water. We couldn't put anything between high water-and the water. That would
be a dock or anything else, because that was always for public use. Yet that's
happening now, that people--
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Basically what we're doing now, is we give
a permit for a dock, it has to be so that people walking along the beach have
a way of getting over it. -in other words, i,f it obstructs the persons walking
there should be a ladder on each side of it so the person can walk up and over
the dock. So we don't inhibit someone from using it.
MR. HARVEY: We actually have that in force?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: That's what should be on every permit that
has that kind of a situation, yes.
MR. HARVEY: Okay. And the last one would be, I think, Counselor, you
eighteen is old enough to fight and twenty-one about the drinkining. You've
got to fight, you have no problems, but drinking--at eighteen years, I mean,
shoved in the Army, it's not your choice. Just a side item.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Any other comments? Jim?
MR. JAMES M~MAHON, Community Development Administrator: Just a question,
Frank, with Mary Troyan and Mrs. Stepnoski. Did I understand that Mary
Troyan was 10 hours a week?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes.
MR. McMAHON: And Mrs. Stepnoski also?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Ten hours.
MR. McMAHON: Because Mrs. Stepnoski, as it stands now, is only working two
daysa week and is Mary going to cover the other five days?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY; You think you need more than ten hours?
MR. McMAHON: I orginally had put in'there, I think, that the--
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: If you want, we could amend it. ~ would try to--
TOWN CLERK TERRY: It's part-time up to 10 hours. So really, you could use,
her as little, or up to 10 hours.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: You better amend the resolution.
MR. McMAHON: She's going to be there fivedays.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Two hours a day. I don't think Danny has the work,
and if she came down here, also, to do some cleaning.
MR. McMAHON: Then you would almost need her 15 hours.
28.
MARCH 27, 1984
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: You want to make it three hours a day?
MR. McMAHON: Just because I think--that it may take her a little bit longer
to do the job.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:
Bob, 20 hours?
TOWN CLERK TERRY:
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH:' No more than twenty?
TOWN CLERK TERRY: Not to exceed 20 hours, then.
Why don't we just limit the hours? What's part-time,
Twenty hours is part-time.
On both of them?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes.

future, on this, as well as one on the South Shore.
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: Can we get a copy of this bill, Frank?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes. You have one copy now.
