SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: At this time, we would like to have some special
presentations in relation to the Historic Landmark deslgnations. It seems
like the last few meetings of the last couple of months, every time I looked
out at my left, these same four gentlemen were sitting there. I know they
are a pretty wild bunch, and they really put a lot more homes under the
Landmark Designation, and so we're pleased, and delighted, with the work
you have done this year, and hopefully we can encourage more of the
people, that could have' the status to join us. So, Cliff, our Chairman,
would you please come forward?
SEPtEmbER t 05
CLIF)=~ BENFIELD: Thank you. I would like to introduce our other three
members, Bob Kassner, Ralph Williams, and John Stack. These plaques
are to catch-up with all the Landmarks that have previously designated. So
far this year we have designated two new landmarks, but we are just
catching up with the other fifty~three landmarks in Southold. So, we've had
meetings. As Jean said she has seen us a lot, because we did other
hamlets, and now sort of doing the last hamlets, Laurel, Mattituck, Peconic,
and Southold. So, without further adieu the first, that is Mrs. Kormendi.
This is for the Raff-Keus~er House. It's one of the oldest houses in
Laurel, and ~it~s a real fine landmark for us. It's on the Old Main Road.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Congratulations on behalf of the Town BOard.
CLIFF BENFIELD: Our committee this year designed the Landmark, which
is a I~rass plaque, and it can be placed over text, if the owner of the
propel )~ desires, s; is a large one, and the owners of the, property
dash :is a .sample one, but we put this together, maybe
s|mpief and could under a plaque, such as they do in
Stonin. and other such places that mark their places. These

SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: .Congratulations. You should be very proud.
CLIFF BENFIELD: The next one Michael Heard will accept for Mrs.
Lyons. This is for the 1766 house, and according to the Society of
Preservatio'n of Long Island, British soldiers were stationed in this house
during the Revolution. The house has later architectural additions. Wide
attic floorboards were probably original wainscoting, and it's a fine, fine
example of :the landmark in Southold.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: We're proud to give it to you on behalf of the
Town Board. Thank you for being part of the program.
CLIFF BENF,IELD: The next house is the Reeve-Wickham House., and !t's
owned b~ Mr. and Mrs. Harper. It's architecturally a very Interesting
house. It has fine baluster stairways ascending from the first to the
second floor, the original Queen Anne windows with amber frosted glass as
well as large stained Window upstairs still intact, very ornate pair of
brackets (~reate an entry hall upstairs. Architecturally it is a flne~ house,
and we're ~er¥'; pleased to have it. Our next houses are in Peconic. Are
Mr. Paul McClynn here?. Okay, he said he was coming, but I guess he
couldn't,, and Mi'. 'Barry is~ not here. We're now in Southold. and we'll talk
to Wes Dickin..s0n about the Abijah Corey House. I'm a little
embarrassed talking about the .house, because Wes always talks about the
house.
WES DICKINSON: I don't knbw about the house, except that Abijah
Corey was the keeper of the hogs. Hogg's Neck was at that point the
place where the hogs grazed in the summer, and the other way was near
Coose Creek Creek Bridge. At that time, the hogs would cross, so it was a
grazing place, same way that Calf's Neck was.
CLIFF BENFIELD: Were you visited by the Corey reunion last week?
WES DICKINSON: Yes.
SUPERVISOR COCRAN: On behalf of the Board. congratulations and
thank you for being a part of our program.

CLIFF BENFIELD: We're now to the Colonel John Youngs House, Mr. and'
Mrs. Gregory Wolff. This was called from many .years the Colonel John
Younges House of the early t640 settlement. The record of lands of John
Younges, Southold man of great promlnence in the 17th century and' son
of Rev. John .Youngs is found in the published Town Records, dated
February .2, 1656. These lands, extending from Town Street, Main. Road,
were his recorded homelot property. Deeds and papers establishing full
proof for the ' of the house were lost or misplaced as several
historians have s' Certain documents and an account book record
discovered about twenty or more years ago impelled the belief that the house
originated with capt. :JOh. n Prlnc.e. in 1732, captain of a~ vessel, who came
from BoSton. Fro~ the Prince famdy genealogy he is recorded as ancestor of

SUPERVISOR COCHRAN; This group, it might give us the opportunity to
obtain extra funds for the purchase of farmland, by using the third party,
which would be the County, and so of course .Joe Cold, Chairman of the
Committee, was in to see us this morning, and explained the entire program
to us, and we are very supportive, because as you know we also have a
bond issue that is being placed on the ballot in November, whlch will
hopefully be passed. I'm not supposed to-politic on this, but hopefully it
will be passed by the community, because Southold community has always
been very good in helping to preserve our open space by .buying the
farmland rights. So, this is another vehicle wh|ch we look forward to
supporting, and Joe, if you want to add anything.
SEPTEMBER 17, 1996 11 3
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: This is a program, I think, one of our
residents are getting 'now, the Commoners. It's a Federal Pro. gram., and
apparently the Federal government has set aside $15,000,000 nationwide for
the acquisition of' farmland. It just so happens that Southold's formula
corresponds beautifully with this program, and so everybody Ts pretty
optimistic.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: There is only four in New York State, three
upstate New York, and we also qualify.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: It is for land that is in active productlon, that
is threatened by development, and that is in close proximity to some
metropolitan area. We're hoping that we will get a fair amount of money out
of this, since we are one of the few towns that put in it's own application,
as opposed to a county.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: It's a million something to New York State, and
four of them are applying. We have a good shot.

comments 'on any given subject to the Town-Board. So, if there is any topic
whatsoever you would llke to discuss, please, feel free. Now is the time to
strafe your thoughts. Yes. sir. please state your name.
JIM HICKEY: Jim Hickey, Mattltuck. Just out of curiosity are any
steps being taken to protect the Laurel Lake property from any future land
grabs?
SEPTEMBER 17, 1996
suPERvISOR ,COCHRAN: No. It's in the status it's been in. You are
talking in relation to the properties, or the Town park property in
particular?
JIM HICKEY: The Town property.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: No, it's preserved as a park.
JIM HICKEY: Another thing is the Orient ferry. Jim Stark says there
will be none in Riverhead, Iron Pier, and Shoreham. Well, Shoreham
isn't in Riverhead. .
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Well, I won't speak for Jim. He can speak for
himself, believe me. I'm not sure i'f he quoted Shoreham, or not, but he
did say, Iron Pier.
JIM HICKEY: Wading River.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Wading River is part of his township.
JIM HICKEY: But the plant is in Shoreham. Well, seeing that, and how
the William Floyd Parkway, and 25A being widened, wouldn't it be feasible to
put the ferry there?
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: It certainly would.
JIM HICKEY: Wouldn't it also be feasible to put the Bridgeport Ferry at
the same terminal, and eliminate the traffic in Port Jefferson?
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: I support a second terminal.
JIM HICKEY: Wouldn't that be feasible, having them both operating at the
same time?
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: It's feasible to have one in Shoreham.
JIM HICKEY: As far as the business people they could shuttle walk-ons
over to Port Jeff.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: I think it will be looked at.
JIM HICKEY: Thank you.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Is there anyone else that would like to address
the Board? (No response.) If not, I will call on Board reports, and I will
start on my left with Mr. Townsend.
COUNCILMAN .TOWNSEND: ,Nothing at this time.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN~ Mrs. Oliva?
COUNCILWOMAN OLIVA: '* Yes. I went to a workshop for the Open Space
B~ond 'Act. that is going on-for our vote this November, and we were
specifically asked to come and tell. about our Local Farmland Preservation
Program, because there will be quite a bit of mbne¥ in that program to
leverage what we have to buy, even more properties, so really we have a
golden opportunity, I think this year to buy our own property, if our bond
msue would win. then to leverage it wlth the State, and with the Federal
grant, and we can really preserve a lot of this wonderful farmland that we
have here, and I would like to remind everyone, that Suffolk County is the
number one agricultural county in the State of New York. We probably have
some of the best farm soils in all of the New York State. So, I think it's
just so important that we can do as much as we can to preserve farmland,
not onty as a way of life, but as an economic base, and to help the rest of
the country grow vegetables. So, it was a very interesting conference.
They also had someone there from Parks and Recreation, and there are
grants that we will be able to apply for there. There was also someone
there from the Department of State about the Environmental Protection Fund
Grant-. We have been the recipient-of about five of these grants already,
actually four for the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program. We, also,
received a grant for planning for our road ends to improve them as far as
acce~ is concerned, or as far as runoff is concerned, and that we have just
now received $42,000 to implement those road ends that were in just the
planning stage. So, I think there is a lot of good things that can come from
this bond act, and we need to get as much information out to the public. It
certainly would be a good thing for Southold. Thank you.
COUNCILMAN MOOI~E: . I'm just going to comment that the Town is going to
participate in the Maritime Festival on Saturday down in Greenport. I look
forward to more fun and shenanigans. I haven't been asked to bang 'nails
yet, but to go in costume.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: The Town is sponsoring a float in the Maritime
Parade on Saturday. I'm not quite sure what time the parade is, but we
have to line up at eleven o'clock, and we're working in secret up at the
Highway Department developing this float. We don't know if 'they are gl.ring
any awards, but we certainly are working. Louisa?
JUSTICE EVANS: Nothing to report.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Alice?
COUNCILWOMAN HUSSIE: I am going to report because the Supervisor and
I went to Washington last week to promote New York State. This was a
National Association of Towns and Townships, and New York State was the
featured state. The Supervisor and I went down to do our bit. Along with
doing that I was also able to attend two seminars, workshops, whatever you
want to call it, and one of them was called, Keys to Successful Funding
Strong Applications for Foundation Grants, and one of the things that i
found was very interesting is, that last year $143,000,000 was given away
by private organizations, foundations, individuals, companies, corporations,
that sort of thlng, and it is a source that I don't think we have tapped
very much, excePt for the Kaplan Fund for the Stewardship Task Force
Work, and I am going to pursue that. I think it's really important, because
Federal grants, they also told us are drying up, and grants are no longer
being granted. They are giving loans, and sometimes they are requiring
matching funds, so that money is shrinking. But the other money is still
there. One hundred forty-three billion is very tempting. I want some of it
for-.the town.
SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Thank you. I have several things I'd like to
share with you. Last night we did have our first meeting, a group of
concerned citizens, and .people from different districts, on graffiti and
vandalism. I was pleased that the school districts, Creenport
administrators and Board members attended. Southold the same, and
MattituCk School Board, Oysterponds, so we had four schools represented,
Mattituck Park District, Cutchogue-New Suffolk Park District, Southold Free
Library, Southold Town Police, Southold Yacht Club. It was interesting.-
There was' ~any. many different views and different philosophies.-tl3~t were
wide apart, ar~l then there were some that we agreed on together. We are
going to sifting out what was discussed last night, and come up with a~work
plan. The group .agreed .wholehearted on one point. (Tape change) We will
deal partly with _.the appea'rance of Southold Town. and be.it road endS. be
it.-the village, the graffiti,' and the vandalism is something that we won't
tolerate, that we will find ways .to. hopefully' reduce this kind of activity
within the community. The group felt that it was a productive meeting~ and
they all said they would like to meet again, so, we will be keeping you
updated as to what we see as solutlons, because it takes community
involvement also. I attended the Ten Towns Supervisors Meeting in Hampton
Bays this-past week. The .speaker was Mr. Pendergast, who was PreSident
of the Long Island Railroad. As you have probably noticed they have begun
working on our railroad station here. I Lam not sure if they started in
Mattituck. but they had plans that we weren't entirely happy with. so we
sent what we felt was appropriate for the two railroad stations, andl they
did compromise, as far as landscaping, and the attractiveness, thei bike
rack. and just adequate parking and so forth. Also. we had good news that
the lease is just about finalized for the town to lease the property over
here on the corner, opposite the railroad station from the North' Fork Bank.
so that will be a part of our hub' for transportation. The bus stop will
eventually be moved from the village up to that area. There will be a
telephone. There will be proper llghtln~, and it certainly will be a: safe
place for people to' catch the buses back and forth. I. also. had the
oppor[u~hlty to meet with Ve McKeigh;~n, who is Director of our Human
Resource Center, and John Raynor, who is my DepUty for Emergency
Preparedness, because we found that in one of our meetings with the threat
of the hurricanes, that we are not prepared in our plan to deal with all
types of shut-ins with special needs. Of course you know your schools
would be open in the case of an emergency for the public, and the hospital
for our worse cases, but there are many people in the community, We
started to: locate them through different medical groups, and so forth, and
there's a lot more than any of us can imagine, that might possibly need
special care. What we talked about is the possibility of eq. ulpping our
Human Resource Center. What it needs to be able t~ function in these
emergency is .a generator, which runs about $38,000, and cots and blankets,
because the elderly, depending on what the problem is, certainly can not
hundred cots in
they borrowed three ~d from Easthampton. Easthampton does own
their own cots, and'blankets. So, it kind of tells you that we should have
them in inventory in case there is a need. Also, on Monday the 9th, and
Tuesday, the 10th, I spent the two days finishing up the touring. I
served on the Historlcal' Maritime Committee for New York State with the
Secretary of State, and COmmissioner Castro from the Parks, and it was our
last two days and it was interesting on Monday. We did Port
Jeff, and that ; Huntington we did the second day, and Cold
Spring Harbor, two days we did both those areas. It was
interesting at ea(~h of tional meetings, if I closed my eyes I was
back in Southold, becau concerns were traffic. The concerns were the
country roads. I said to them, you know we say out east we look to the
west for a lesson, beCa.u, se .of the growth pattern, and yet they are still
fighting to .save what little they have left as far as Cold Spring Harbor
area, 25A. They are trying to widen 25A by the fish hatchery in Cold
Spring Harbor, and then it cuts down to two lanes quickly, and right into
the Village, so they still have many concerns, but their concerns are so
much llke ours that it only r.einforces the fact that, I believe, we need a
regional transpor, tation stu(~y in addition to some of the changes, that have
to happen out here to give us relief. Also, I attended the celebration of
the ....Tifereth Israel Synagogue in Creen.port. They .celebrated their 2Bth
year, and also they hor~ed Doctor Lewn, and Jack Levin, as members of
the Temple. Als0, honored as Man of the Year for 'the Temple was Mayor
Kapell, and we extended them congratulations. Alice reported on the
Association of Towns .meeting in Washington. I was serving on the
Committee also, but we went down, and it took us six hours to drive down,
but nine hours to drive .back because we were fighting the fringes of rain
from the hurricane. Our keynote speaker was an Attorney Ceneral Janet
Reno, who spoke about the problems facing small towns as far as drugs,
domestic violence, crime~ and. she discussed some of the department justice
programs fbr fighting crime, and reducing violence in the home. One of the
things, as Alice': reported, New York State was the featured state. Every
year there Js a different' .featured state. Last year it was Minnesota, this
year New York, an'd in addition to paid vendors, they give New York State
a complete room q.f Which they hand out what we call goodies. You received
things from. New York State appJes to jars of marinade sauce, to trees, soft
pine trees from upstate New York, and on, and on, and. on, different
members of the Committee had work(rd very hard to get things that were
give-aways to the thousand people that were attending the convention, i
was lucky enough, and fortunate enough that in addition to give away to
everybody that went through, as far as delegates were concerned, they also
had what were like door prizes, no charge, and they raffled them, and you
put your name on the paper, and indicated what on the table;, huge tables
of some nice merchandi:se, was. There was silver service from Oneida.
There were cameras from Kodak, but the hit of the show was the wine from
the North Fork that we took down. We took it down in cartons, and
baskets, and got down there, and fixed up the baskets, and put big bows
on it, and so we had four large baskets of wine, and then three container
boxes which we put big bows on. We stuck in our promotion from the
Promotion Committee, the program. We stuck that in each basket, and so
forth, so they would Enow just were Long Island and the North Fork is.
We, also, had boxes from the Promotion Committee, which I would llke to
thank them for supplying, and they were handed out to people as they went
through the llne. I would like to thank the following wineries for
SEPTEMBER
coope'rbting, the New York State Association of Towns thank you,.
personally thank you, because you made my job easy. Hargrave Vineyard,
Pindar Vineyard, Lenz Winery, Bedell Cellars, Christina Vineyard,
Osprey Dominion, and Puglelse Vineyards, so, gentlemen and ladies, we
thank you for your support. That's about the end of it. The only thing I'd
llke to add, I'd llke to wish my husband Happy ~6th Anniversary today.
It's a long time, but Happy Anniversary, Pep. May I have a motion to
adjourn?
