Home My WebLink AboutTB-07/29/2003SOUTHOLD TOWN BOARD JULY 2% 2003 Work Session Present: Supervisor Joshua Y. Horton, Justice Louisa P. Evans, Councilman Thomas H. Wickham. Absent: Councilman William D. Moore, Councilman Craig A. Richter Councilman John Romanelli, Supervisor Horton presented the Town Board with a proposed resolution for the sale of the Whitaker House. A lengthy discussion by the Town Board followed. Councilman Romanelli said that he would not be afraid to knock it down and rebuild it with the historic streetscape but with efficient office space inside for town offices. Supervisor Horton advised that the town has received an offer on it with the covenants and restrictions. He feels that town hall could be expanded from the back out to Traveler Street. He also wants to review the costs and estimates of moving to North Fork Bank. Councilman Wickham advised that his agreement to move to the bank was a short term solution. Supervisor Horton stated that he thought that they are all in agreement on this, but it would behoove them to know the dollar amount of the move to compare it against what it could get them here at town hall. He feels that the back of Town Hall could be built out to Traveler Street. Councilman Romanelli asserted that you still must have someplace to go during an addition or renovation. Councilman Wickham reiterated that his agreement to move to the bank was a short term solution. Supervisor Horton declared that everyone was in agreement on the move, but, he feels that it behooves everyone to know the dollar amount of the move and what this amount could get us here at town hall. Supervisor Horton said that he has asked the Town Engineer Jamie Richter to put together a package for the costs of moving infrastructures, telephone and computer lines, etc. Councilman Romanelli said that it is necessary to know these costs just for the operation of business, but it shouldn't hold up the lease of the bank. We need some place to put the people to work while the space problem is being solved. Supervisor Horton advised that he has Lloyd Reisenberg of the Data Processing department putting together the dollar numbers of the cost to move the communications and Light Path. Town Comptroller John Cushman already did a dollar estimate on the lease numbers and Town Engineer Jamie Richter is putting it together. Councilman Romanelli stated that at this time he would vote no to any resolution to sell the Whitaker House. He is of the opinion that it is just not a good business wise decision to sell an adjoining piece of property. He would like to knock down the house that is there and build a replica of Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 2 the street scape original Whitaker house with functional office space on the inside. He feels that there is a value to the Town of keeping the historical look and street scape. Supervisor Horton's proposed resolution was not placed on the agenda at this time. 9:30 AM Appointment Melissa Spiro, Land Preservation Department Head appeared before the Town Board to discuss several properties for open space and farmland development purchases. The first parcel owned by Zoumas Contracting Corp. (open space) SCTM # 1000-79-4-17.17 consisting of approximately 32 acres (resolution no. 456). The second parcel owned by John Q. Adams (open space) SCTM# 1000-56-1-8.1 and SCTM#1000-56-1-10 consisting of approximately 27.9 acres (resolution no. 457). The third parcel owned by Robert Webber (farmland development rights) this is a standard PDR at Orient east of Narrow River Road, 8.9 acres cutting out the house SCTM#1000-19- 1-11.3 (resolution no. 458). The fourth parcel is the Ciacia piece to the south of Ashamomaque Preserve and the Levin/Bloom piece. It is currently owned by Suffolk County for tax arrears. SCTM #1000-45-1-10. They are asking the County to transfer it back to the Town so that the Town can use it for municipal park purposes and manage it. Executive Administrator James McMahon drafted a resolution which Mr. Spiro read to the Board. The Town Board directed that this resolution be added to the agenda (resolution no. 473). The last item Ms. Spiro apprised the Town Board of was the Federal Farmland Grant under the Federal Farm and Ranch Lands Protection Program FY2003. It is a 50/50 match program where the Town of Southold received a $294,000. grant notification for five farms. It will be necessary for the Town to file a specific application for a grant for these funds. A resolution was placed on the agenda to authorize the Supervisor to execute this grant application (resolution no. 467). Ms. Spiro advised the Town Board that the total number of acres in the pipeline is 953. These are things that are actively being worked on by the Town or the Peconic Land Trust and that people are reasonably expecting to close on, not just a phone call or an inquiry. She said that she thinks that all the Town Board has to know is the totals. What is under contract in acres? What is still being pursued? The number changes every two weeks. Ms. Spiro will be back for Executive Session this afternoon to discuss some potential property acquisitions. The Town Board recessed at 10:00 AM for a short break. The Town Board reconvened at 10:16 AM and discussed IV. For Discussion Items. IV. 1. Domestic Partnership Registry proposed local law was presented to the Town Board. The Town Board referred it to the Anti-Bias Task Force for their input. IV. 2. Request for Special Legislation from State re: Ferry User Fee (Safety environmental Fund) Supervisor Horton advised that this would be a tax for a ferry user fee and it would go to the Town. It would have to be adopted by the New York State Legislature. The Supervisor questioned if the site plan issue had been resolved. The Town Attorney replied that there have been questions on compliance with their site plans. Councilman Romanelli advised that they completed the site plan, but the Town should follow-up and be certain that they actually "do it according to the approved plan". The Planning Board will be asked to do a status report; code enforcement has been working on it and will give us a memo on it. Justice Evans stated that she doesn't have a problem with it as long as it is limited to the Cross Sound Ferry and not the Fishers Island Ferry. Councilman Wickham questioned the proposed shuttle service between a parking area at Riverhead and the Cross Sound Ferry. Supervisor Horton said that the State and County are working with him on those proposals. A discussion was also held on the hazardous conditions created by cars parking along side of the road at the terminus of Route 25 in front of the ferry terminal. The Town contacted the State to request "no parking signs" there, but they refused to do. Supervisor Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 3 Horton will send a letter to NYS Assemblywoman Acampora and Senator LaValle regarding initiating this special tax. IV. 3. DGEIS Build-Out. Councilman Romanelli stated he put this on the agenda in order to start the ball rolling. A lengthy discussion ensued regarding the setting of Town Board goals for the number of available houses or dwelling units, preservation of single and separate lots, preservation goals for farmland, affordable housing, diversity of housing options, etc. However, no decisions were made. Further information from the moratorium team is needed to continue the discussion on the build-out. The Town Board reviewed the resolutions to be voted upon at the regular meeting this evening. This work session recessed at 11:40 AM to be reconvened at 1:00 PM The Town Board was of the opinion that they probably would not vote on the local laws that are the subject of public hearings this evening, other than the 90 day extension of the Moratorium on Subdivisions.

Written comments by August 22, 2003. III. COMMUNICATIONS 1. Letter to Town Clerk Elizabeth Neville from Janet Stewart, re thank you for assistance with the Street Fair. Mattituck Chamber of Commerce, SUPERVISOR HORTON: It is the policy of the Town Board to offer the floor to the public two times over the course of the Town Board meeting. The first is prior to the reading and voting on any of the resolutions that are on the printed agenda, you may address the Board on any of the specific resolutions and the second time that we also offer the floor to the public is at the conclusions of the resolutions, if you would like to address the Town Board on any town related issues or town issues. As well, we have a number of public hearings, there will be time to address the Town Board on those specific public hearings as soon as those public hearings are opened up. Would any one like to address the Town Board on these resolutions? KATHY TOLL: Good afternoon, Kathy Toll, Greenport. Could you just give a brief explanation on #466, what easements and whether or not the reputed parcel owners have been given due notice by the Town and by what means was that notice given? And my second question is regarding #472, Community Preservation Fund expenditure for improvements of the Custer Preserve Site, I am curious as to whether Capital Improvement type items are permissible under the Community Preservation Fund legislation. COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: I will answer the first one for you. #466, those are temporary easements for capping the landfill. Those were all the properties owned on the perimeter of the landfill that we got the easements for the County to process, where we are coming to the closure of the capping, we are extinguishing the easements, we don't need them anymore, along the perimeter of the landfill. That is what they are. MS. TOLL: So it wasn't the property owners having access to Town property, it was the Town having access to their property? COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: Right. MS. TOLL: Okay, thank you. Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 7 COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: And I can address your second question. The Custer Preserve had a proposal for the installation of a water tank, irrigation well and support building. And there is a manager that identified with that and the total thing would cost $13,800. The Land Preservation Committee recommended that funds be used from the 2% fund to help finance that. It was proposed, recommended and adopted by the Committee and also recommended by the Tree Committee. And it comes to the Town Board for approval. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Essentially what that open portion of that is going to be used for is planting and maintaining trees that will be used in a .... and when trees are dedicated throughout Town, through the tree dedication program, that will be a place where trees are kept and maintained for that program. MS. TOLL: The program sounds wonderful, I commend all the improvement of property. I was just curious as to whether this has been researched as to whether this is an appropriate expenditure under the Community Preservation Fund legislation, has that been examined by the Town Attorney? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes. That has been a question that many of us have asked as well on prior projects. That has been researched as being legal and permissible. MS. TOLL: Okay, thank you. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Are there other questions on any of the resolutions? Yes, sir. DAVE BAKOWSKI: I don't know if I am jumping the gun here. My name is Dave Bakowski, I live in Cutchogue. It is in reference to the open discussion for #4 and #2. JUSTICE EVANS: Do you mean the public hearings? MR. BAKOWSKI: Well, it says for discussion. I am the (inaudible) for the general manager for the Cross Sound Ferry and ! would just like to drop off a letter to the Town. Can ! present that to you? SUPERVISOR HORTON: You can bring that right here and we will make sure that it becomes part of the public record. Thank you. MR. BAKOWSKI: Thank you. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Are there other questions on any of the resolutions? Mrs. Egan. JOAN EGAN: Yes, good evening or good afternoon, Mr. Horton, Mr. Richter, Mr. Romanelli, Mrs. Evans, Mr. Wickham, Mrs. Neville and Mr. Yakaboski. ! have quite a few things. So, relax and don't rush me. It seems like you are rushing through a lot of things. You must have a hot date tonight. Now, #445 and this is addressed to Mr. Horton. Would it be more prudent to hire more Safety Dispatchers or to pay overtime because some of them get very tired and they don't do a good job. Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 SUPERVISOR HORTON: The answer to that question is it is more prudent to hire more full-time Dispatchers and while we are in the process of canvassing, interviewing and hiring- this will get us through that, over the hump. While we have the shortage. MS. EGAN: Well, I would be very careful there. I take a great deal, I don't know what the correct word is, #447, when they determine that Supervisor Horton or his successor, I don't think that that phrase successor, I think that is a rather rude thing to say. That is to me that implying that Mr. Horton will not be his own successor. That was wrong and rude. Now, on #448, we are going to be sending Connie Solomon to training, will she be staying overnight and we have to pay her travel expenses .... will that be a day trip, will she be staying up there or not? I am speaking to Mr. Horton. SUPERVISOR HORTON: These will be day trips, during the workday. MS. EGAN: Good. And she will be paid expenses, she should be. Alright, now on #449, why are we changing the student intern? SUPERVISOR HORTON: One has departed and we have ..... MS. EGAN: So now we have to break someone else in? I congratulate you on #451, now this Strawberry Fields fairground, I get concerned about chemicals, so we will leave that alone. Now, on #459, now, Mrs. Neville is the Town Head Clerk. I would presume that this is for another office? SUPERVISOR HORTON: That is correct. MS. EGAN: Which one? SUPERVISOR HORTON: That would be the Building Department. JOAN EGAN: #460. Now, what is that all about? SUPERVISOR HORTON: #460 is to pay for welding supplies, tires, a Ford Tractor, tire repair and glass removal. MRS. EGAN: So, what do you mean by modification? Spend money? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Moving it from one budget line to another, within the budget of that department. MRS. EGAN: But that would be more money spent, of course. Now, item 463, I would imagine that that was what you mentioned before that the head clerk in the Building Department, those should have been put together. Oh, this one really bothered me, maybe I think I read it in the paper. #465, authorize and direct Supervisor Horton to execute a loss statement for Kemper Insurance. The loss is sustained in the Human Resource Center. Now, did I not read in the paper that something was broken or stolen up there? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Mrs. Egan, this is .... Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 9 MRS. EGAN: That would lead me to believe that it isn't being taken care of properly. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Okay. MRS. EGAN: Oh, oh. This is a very important one, #467, now these credit card companies are getting even stricter than they had before, which is important. Do the people that have credit cards know their pin number? If they don't know their pin number and they have a problem ..... SUPERVISOR HORTON: This isn't a credit card. MRS. EGAN: Oh, it is not? But people up here do have a credit card, ! believe. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes. MRS. EGAN: Well, make sure they know their pin number because if they don't ..... SUPERVISOR HORTON: Okay. MRS. EGAN: .... excuse me, ! am not finished. It can take four to six weeks because they cannot verbalize that over the telephone. Now, we have another resignation here, on #471. Now are we going to have to appoint somebody else or are we just accepting the resignation and filling in... SUPERVISOR HORTON: We will fill that position. MRS. EGAN: You will fill that position. Now, ! will briefly say here, the public hearings: five minutes for this one, five minutes for this one, five minutes for this one, five minutes for this one and five minutes for this one. It ain't gonna happen that way. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank you, Mrs. Egan. Would anyone else care to address the Board on any of the resolutions? (No response) We will move ahead with the resolutions. #445 Moved by Councilman Richter, seconded by Councilman Romanelli, it was RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby authorizes and directs Supervisor Joshua Y. Horton to sign an agreement between the Town of Southold and CSEA relative to Public Safety Dispatcher overtime extending said period to December 31, 2003.

So that is something that I wanted to convey to the Board and also to the public that this is not a parcel that is within the Church Lane or within the heart of the Church Lane community that we are looking to address.

RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby ENACTS the following Local Law: LOCAL LAWNO. 13 of 2003 A Local Law In Relation to a Ninety (90) Day Extension of the Temporary Moratorium on the Processing, Review of, and making Decisions on applications for Major Subdivisions, Minor Subdivisions and Special Exception Use Permits and Site Plans containing Dwelling Unity(s) in the Town of Southold BE IT ENACTED BY, the Town Board of the Town of Southold as follows: Section 1. PURPOSE Moratorium Extension I. Legislative Intent A Town-wide moratorium was enacted by the Town Board of the Town of Southold on August 20, 2002. The moratorium was intended to provide sufficient time for the Town to consider the recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Commission and to comprehensively review Town planning issues such as affordable housing, completion of the Local Waterfront Revitalization Plan (LWRP) and understand needed public infrastructure including consideration of hamlet areas and transportation systems. The Town Board established a moratorium planning team consisting of the Town attorney, Town planner and land preservation coordinator, as well as two planning consultants and two legal consultants. The team was directed to review Town planning goals, past planning studies, and studies that assist the Town Board in achieving the goals of the Town. The moratorium planning team established a schedule of tasks which included past plan review, synthesis of planning recommendations, obtaining input from Committees and Boards, assessment of Town planning and zoning policies, and utilization of a Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GELS) procedure to inform the Board, involved agencies and the public of the Town's initiative. In addition, the GElS was intended to take a "hard look" at the implications and potential impacts of the comprehensive implementation strategy, allow for review of mitigation and alternatives, and provide a procedure to allow a rational and logical implementation strategy to evolve from an organized process. The Town Board authorized the moratorium planning team to proceed with the task and schedule provided to the Town Board of October 8, 2002. The moratorium planning team has met on a weekly or as-needed basis to advance the tasks and schedule as authorized by the Town Board. The team has completed a number of important tasks to date, including: · review of past studies; · synthesis of past planning recommendations; · review of Town Code, policies and definitions; · preparation of Geographic Information System (GIS) resource maps in cooperation with Town data processing staff to document Town characteristics; · review of technical information and facts to be used in completing the GElS and planning initiative review; · initial review of Town affordable housing policies; · initial review of hamlet centers, transition zones and rural areas of the Town; Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 24 · meetings and interviews with Town staff and department heads; · preparation of materials and updates of ongoing activities that were placed on the Town's website for public information purposes; · public informational meetings, Town Board updates and dialogue with the Town Board regarding policy considerations; · preparation of draft documents for Town Board implementation and conformance with State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) procedures; · preparation of a build-out analysis; · preparation of the Draft GELS; and · three public hearings on the Draft GELS. The Town Board recognizes the need to comply with SEQRA, and understands the value of this process. The action is of Town-wide significance and is considered to be a Type I action which is more likely to require an environmental impact statement. As a result, the Town Board has adopted a number of documents in conformance with SEQRA, including the following important steps: · classification of the action as a Type I action; · designation of the Town Board as lead agency; · preparation of an environmental assessment form; · issuance of a Positive Declaration; · receipt of a Draft Scope of the Draft GElS and setting of the public hearing; · acceptance of a Draft GELS; and · three public hearings on the Draft GELS. Since the last extension of the moratorium the Town ahs adopted a final scope, completed and accepted the Draft GELS, scheduled and held public hearings on the Draft GElS on three separate dates. Recognizing the significance of the action, the need and desirability to comply with SEQRA through the use of a GElS process, and the subsequent need to determine the ultimate series of recommendations to be implemented, the Town Board seeks to ensure that sufficient time is set aside to complete the SEQRA process, meet legal mandates and accommodate social needs. Due to public interests in the DGEIS document, the Town Board held three public hearings and kept the hearing process open until July 15th in order to facilitate greater public review and comment. Additional time is needed beyond the expiration of the six (6) month extension of moratorium enacted by the Town Board on February 4, 2003. As a result, the Town Board of the Town of $outhold seeks to extend the moratorium for an additional ninety (90) day period for the purpose of completing the Final Environmental Impact Statement adopting Findings pursuant to SEQRA, allowing the Town Board to determine how to implement the Comprehensive Implementation Strategy and permitting the Town Board time to implement those actions needed to address the issues covered by this moratorium. Section 2.

COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: 1 am voting for this although I believe that three months is inadequate. But three months is better than nothing, so I am voting for it. COUNCILMAN RICHTER: It is my pleasure to vote yes, thank you. Vote of the Town Board: Aye: Councilman Wickham, Councilman Richter, Councilman Romanelli, Justice Evans, Supervisor Horton. This resolution was duly ADOPTED. SUPERVISOR HORTON: That concludes our resolutions. At this point, I offer the floor to the public to address the Town Board on town business. Mr. Penny. GEORGE PENNY: Good evening again, George Penny, Southold. I don't have my GElS and all my paperclips or any of my maps with me this time but I would like to pass on to the Board a conversation that I had just a few days ago with our retired Chief of Police, in his backyard as he was, I was on a lunch break and he was retired so we all know what that is about. He told me, which really disturbed me, that he came down to the Town Hall in the Town of Southold regarding a parcel of property which is in his mother's name, which has been in the Conway family forever, I believe it is a AC or R-80 zone, probably AC zone. He found out by coming into the Town Hall, that the town had identified this as being held by an investor. Now, that kind of surprised me, so I did a little checking around myself. I said, I am just wondering what the criteria is and I was told that what the criteria is is: if you don't farm the property yourself, you are listed as an investor. Although you own the land, your family has owned the land and it could be for 100 or 200 years but you are still listed as an investor. So I checked on my good friend, retired Trustee John Tuthill in Orient, who owns 120 acres. Once again, an Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 28 investor. And then there is, I guess everybody here, I don't think that there is anybody here that doesn't know Walter Krupski, from North Fork Bank. His father who has lived on Bridge Lane ever since I was a kid and probably before, I would assume. He is an investor also. Now, I went to a meeting the other night at the school which was attended by many of the people who are right up here on the Board, it was non-political, although this issue has become political. But I heard how Southampton and East Hampton referred to their farm community and I think that we are doing a disservice to the local people by calling them investors. You are feeding the frenzy by not telling the people who they really are. If the Conway's and if the Tuthill's and if the Krupski's, who owned this property for 100- 150 years or whatever are regarded callously by the Town in its reports then it is easy for somebody to stand up here and make a statement like I heard the other night, well, it is no big deal, 60-70% of the real estate, the AC and the R-80 zones in $outhold Town is in the hands of speculators. That statement becomes absolutely true. $o we have a little time now, and I have my zoning map and I have already started so if somebody wants to start putting names on the map, let's find out who these people really are. Because a lot of them, I went to school with their kids. They have owned the property since, well, I have got out of school in 1961 and that is when property went up to $1,000 per acre and believe you me, a lot of people got out and a lot of the farm kids didn't come back. But the land is still there and a lot of it is still held by their families. $o let's put names on it and let's tell them what they are. They are residents of the Town of $outhold. They are not necessarily investors and also, they are listed as investor if their tax bill is sent out of Town. So, if somebody sends it to a Trust or if they send it to their attorney in another town, the minute the tax bill goes out of Town, that person becomes an investor. I don't think that is any way for the Town to treat its people. It is a lot harder to take away people's property when you know who the people really are. Thank you. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Would anyone else care to address the Town Board on town related business? Yes, you have waited patiently. STEVE HUSAK: Steve Husak, Mattituck. We have got a situation over on Breakwater Road in the Breakwater Beach over there. There has been a ton of vandalism lately. There was a party over the July 4th weekend where they went around with a four-wheel drive pickup, ripped out all the street signs, they have damaged mailboxes every weekend nonstop since then. I, continually every Saturday and Sunday morning pickup between 1 dozen and 2 dozen beer bottles off my front lawn. ! have complained to Mattituck Park District, ! have complained to the Police Department. Any time that ! complain, all ! get is one cop car, one cop who is afraid to get out of his car and ! don't blame him because he is surrounded by 60 or 70 kids down at the beach, these kids are down there drinking and smoking pot and nothing is being done about it. ! work hard, ! live in a house that my family has owned since 1945 and ! am fed up and ! want to know if we had a joint task force last week with the Coast Guard and the Town Police to crack down on boating while intoxicated, why we can't go undercover with some of these young cops, this happens at every road that ends up at a beach. We have drag racing and something has got to be done. Something has got to be done to crack down. They used to lock the beaches up but the Park District doesn't seem to have the money up any more to lock the beaches up and if you talk to them, they tell you it is a police matter. If you talk to the police, they tell you it is a Park District matter. ! talked to a lot of my customers who have expensive homes across the town, who live on the water, live by the beaches and they tell me the same thing. They have drag racing up and down their streets. Get these cops off of Rt. 48 in the morning, giving guys tickets for doing 60 in a 55 on their way to work, put them down there at night. Nighttime is when the drug dealers are coming from Riverhead to sell our kids their drugs, that is when they are down there Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 29 drinking, that is where the problem is. The problem isn't on Rt. 48. By the time that the cops get them up there, the accident has happened already. Nip it in the bud down there and prevent our mailboxes from being destroyed and our property from being destroyed, please. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thanks, Mr. Husak. I appreciate you coming in and sharing that with us. Would anybody else care to address the Board on town related business? Mr. Dinizio. JIM DINIZIO: Jim Dinizio, Greenport. I could sympathize with that fellow because I live at 67 steps and we have had our problems, too. I don't want to say something here, I don't know if I should but about 10 minutes ago, I should have said something but I didn't. And that was concerning the moratorium and the Church Lane people. I should have stood up and encouraged you to vote against it. That particular thing. Not because Mr. Mohr is any different than anybody else or even that it is you know, one commercial building away from what we are trying to do. And that wasn't the reason that I didn't stand up. I didn't stand up because the last time that I stood up for these people, I was called a white man. And by that same person; I was called a liar. So I felt a little intimidated by that but as I sat there, you know, I shouldn't let that person intimidate me into doing the things that I think are right. And ifI understand you right, it lost. Am I correct? SUPERVISOR HORTON: That is correct. MR. D1NIZIO: I just hope that none of you took the easy way out. Because you need to vote how you feel. It is important, it is important to all the people. And that includes the next set of whatever people come up with, you have got to vote for how you feel and not how somebody else tells you to do or how you think other people are. Find out how they feel and this little world that you live in, this room right here, is not the real world. Believe me, the amount of time that ! come up here, ! don't represent that many people. Okay? But ! do feel like ! felt that and ! thought to myself, you guys have got to feel the same way. So, ! just wanted you to know that there is someone in this room that didn't feel right about standing up for what he thought was right and there is a person in this room that caused that. So, thank you for voting on that. ! know that you probably voted your conscience. A moratorium is a moratorium is a moratorium. You should take it seriously and ! think that you did. Thank you very much. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thanks, Jim. Would anybody else care to address the Town Board? Motion to adjourn? MRS. EGAN: No, no. I still have my turn. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Okay, I didn't see you, Mrs. Egan. MRS. EGAN: I notice that Mr. Moore is not here and I suppose that is in relationship to his .... SUPERVISOR HORTON: That is personal business, Mrs. Egan. MRS. EGAN: Why didn't you let me finish? I am sure that it is because of his tragedy and I have already expressed that to he and his family. Now, my message, ! am so glad that Mr. Dinizio kind of Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 30 seconded what I felt. Now, Mr. Horton, now, it is maybe six weeks since I gave you a letter to give to Mr. Yakaboski and I believe at the last meeting you said that that had been done. Have you heard back from him in that regard? SUPERVISOR HORTON: No, we haven't discussed it. MRS. EGAN: Great, that is great. When do you think that might be done? SUPERVISOR HORTON: I don't have an answer for you, Mrs. Egan. MRS. EGAN: You don't have an answer for me. That is great. Now, also, the, there is a word that would like to throw at you. ! think that you can all, you don't have to go to the dictionary for this one tonight. That is wonderful. That is integrity. Of which ! don't see very much of around here. Now, would also ..... SUPERVISOR HORTON: Mrs. Egan. MRS. EGAN: Excuse me, ! am not finished. ! would like to tell you that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. And ! am sure Mr. Romanelli, ! don't need you mouthing what ! am saying. You haven't done anything since you came into office. Even have you Mr. Richter. Now, ! also requested that for the Maritime Festival, which ! have already sent a letter to your mother, Josh, that ! think that it should be cancelled because it is a mess down there. That we at least have some more police there and at Mattituck. Have you been able to address that issue? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes, actually. MRS. EGAN: Did you meet with any success? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes. MRS. EGAN: You did. And how? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Pertaining to the Maritime Festival, there will be proper police coverage. MRS. EGAN: Plenty? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes. MRS. EGAN: And also the Bay Constables will be down there, hopefully? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes. MRS. EGAN: Wonderful. Now also, I don't, I am a very observant person and have been out here for a long time, there is water coming up all over the place for any different number of reasons. I don't think there is anything that the Town can do about it but all this building and all these trucks ain't helping it. And it is causing problems down there by Greenport. Right, Mr. Romanelli? Where Southold Town Board July 29, 2003 28 MRS. EGAN: Plenty? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes. MRS. EGAN: And also the Bay Constables will be down there, hopefully? SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes. MRS. EGAN: Wonderful. Now also, I don't, I am a very observant person and have been out here for a long time, there is water coming up all over the place for any different number of reasons. I don't think there is anything that Ithe Town can do about it but all this building and all these trucks ain't helping it. And it is causing problems down there by Greenport. Right, Mr. Romanelli? Where nothing has been done. Now also, I believe I had asked Mr. Romanelli almost two years ago or whatever, that where buildings and excavations are that that orange meshing be put around. I believe that you told me that you would be getting in contact with the Building Department to see that that when permits were granted, that that would happen. Has that happened, Mr. Romanelli? And the answer to that is yes or no. COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: No. MRS. EGAN: Great. You know how to say that pretty good. You don't seem to say no when it comes to spending our tax money. Bye. SUPERVISOR HORTON: Mrs. Egan. Thank you, Mrs. Egan. Motion to adjourn. Moved by Councilman Rom:melli, seconded by Councilman Richter, it was RESOLVED that this Town Board meeting be and hereby is adjourned at 7:10 P.M. Vote of the Town Board: Aye: Councilman Wickham, Councilman Richter, Councilman Romanelli, Justice Evans, Supervisor Horton. This resolution was duly ADOPTED. * * * * * * ~O~ Elizabeth A.
