will ask if there are comments en this subdivision?
Donna Geraghty: I represent the developer and I am just here to state that this is a~
addition. Section One had been filed back in '92 and Section Four has been filed. Tjhis is
Sections.Two and Three and it's just bringing the rest of the subdivision together. If
anyone has any questions, I would be happy to answer them.
Chairman Orlowski: Any other comments? Hearing non~e, any questions from the
Board? Hearing'no further questions, I'll entertain a motion to close the hearing.
Mr. Latham: So move.
Mr. Cremers: Second.
Chairman Or owsk: Motion made and seconded. All those in favor?.
Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Caggiano, Mr. Cremers Mr. Edwards, Mr. Latham.
Chairman Orlowski: Opposed? The motion cardes. (The hearing was closed at 6:03
p.m.)
With that, I'll make the following resolution:
Claire Dowlin.q: Excuse me, excuse me - we are not sure how this goes - all this tha~
happened before - I mean, there are some of us here that are concerned about this
development on Shipyard Lane. We are not sure how this works and all of a sudden this
is over?,
Chairman Orlowski: This is a public hearing where you are asked to make any
comments.
Claire Dowlin,q: Right. Could you present again what the changes are that the public
hearing is about? Could you summarize it and then we can make, you know, some ~ nd
of comment that we might want to make.
Chairman Odowski; Well, it is Sections Two and Three of Summit Estates. The
proposed major subdivision is for twenty-five lots on twenty-three acres located on the
west of Shipyard Lane in East Marion.
Claire Dow~ing: And this is a change from the original?
Chairman Orlowski: No, this has been here for a long time. Can we have your name fOr
the record? ,
Southold Town Planning Board Page Three IVlarch 11, 2002
Claire Dowlin~: My name is Claire Dowling. I live on Shipyard Lane and there are
additional houses that are being proposed here tonight than when the original one
proposed ten years ago?
Chairman Odowski: I believe the map is on the wall there somewhere. I don't think
changing.

IS
Ctalre Dowling: I will express my concern, and maybe I am ten years too late, but v
have a'c?ndominium at the end of that road. I don't believe I know how many units ~are
:there 5ut there are plenty of units there, alright. There's a large numberof units. There
is a lot of pressure on Shipyard Lane in season and now w~th these additional hous~es
way the plan appears on the diagram here, all those houses-
one little rOad - Shipyard: Lane. With the condo.
fro.
is
Chairman :Orlowski: Well, there are twenty-five lots.
Claire Dowlin.q: Twenty-five houses?
Chairman Orlowski: Well, with the original, it is thirty-five - excuse me.
Claire Dowlin,q: Plus the houses that are already there on Shipyard Lane, plus the
condominium at the foot of Shipyard Lane with many units already. I see that as a
disaster. We have children that live on that street. Right now, it is a country road. The~y
play. They ride,their bicycles. As it is, we have a great deal of problem in the summer
time there in terms'of traffic - the overload of traffic due to the many units at the basff at
the bottom of Shipyard Lane on the water and, you know, there was a hearing aboutI
that proper~ many years ago too you know because it is built on wetlands but that iS a
problem that we cannot resolve right now, can we? That is already done. But, I will
express my ext~r,.eme concern about this little road, Shipyard Lane, trying to absorb all
these houses With all this traffic, l mean, I don't see this design as being very logical and
very fair ~o the people that already live on Shipyard Lane and that's the way I see it.
Pat Volinski: And I second it.
Chairman Orlowski: Can I have your name for the record?
Pat VolinSki: Pat Volinsld.

? Barren: My na,~e is Barren and I live on Sh pvard Lane an ' '
,' ~ . . __ d I am just ook~ng at tee
density here. I ar~ look ng at the first ten lots and the houses that are positioned thi re.
'They seem to be appropriately placed on the properties - decently spaced but the
remain.lng houses put in there have a different density factor. It looks like the lots s e
smaller a~d what is permissible for twenty-three acres? He does not have twenty-t
. Dee
acres that are buildable. He has vacant land in there that is not buildable so it seer is to
me that what they are asEin§ for is a density that's not acceptable.
~: I would like to answer his quest on, if I might. This subdivision w~
:originaily plan~e~l on forty-sev, en acres and the Board required c ustering - mandat,
.clustering,~- which is one-acre,z~on ng and we brought it down to thirty thousand squ
feet. There ts open space th~.the ent re community shares, n the front, there s al:
five acres Open space and: in back there s an additiona thre~'ahd a half acres. Sc
looks li_k:~ ,Wela~:e putting. ~or~,i[ots on this.small acreage,space but, in fact, as a wh
this is pa~ofSectjons ~ne, ~o, Three and Four whiCh I am ~ure the Board is aw~
but I am jUst trYing to clarify E/fer the :rest of the ,people.
~: I have a question about what entire community is sharing this open
space.

Chairman Orlowski: You have to state your name for the record.
Claire Dowlinq: Claire Dowling.
Chairman Orlowsk_i: I don't want.this to be a debate. What is your question?
Claire Dowlin_.g: This woman has just said the entire community will share this open
space on Shipyard Lane and I am wondering what the entire community is? What is
definition of that - is that the people of Summit Estates or the whole street?
Chairman Orlowski: Just Summit Estates.
Donna Ger~: The homeowners association.
Chairman Orlowski: O.K. Any other comments? It has been put on the record. The
hearing has been closed but I will ask if there are any other comments? O.K. Hearin,
