The DIstrict has publicly stated that it has no operational need for the property, and that its chief interest is to protect the island from undesirable development. I believe that such motives fall outside the authority of the'District, and as such, they do not support the expenditure of taxpayer's monies. The District's argument rationalizes the purchase for "the good of the island". But I did not vote for those Board Members to opine on such broad topics, but to perform a specific and essential task of providing essential transportation. The broader issues are the responsibility of the Town Board, which has already decided that the property is of no compelling interest. So what would be the consequence if the Ferry's purchase was legally and successfully challenged? Would the debt service obligation become the liability of the overall Town instead of the property owners of Fishers Island? If that is the likely outcome, then FI Ferry District would essentially be encumbering residents who have no vote or voice in their election, and receive no.benefit from the expenditure. The increasing confusion and ignorance of jurisdictional boundaries of respective municipal authorities is inviting damaging abuse. Locally, we have had our school district subsidize a private, local affordable housing non profit, our Waste Management DIstrict subsidize a recreational path entity and our local museum, and several other projects of a similar nature being seriously contemplated. All of these fail to consider the rights of the taxpayer, and the limits of their authority. In so doing they deprive the taxpayer of the basic right of choice with regard to charitable giving. These unjustified subsidies are occurring at a time when increasing costs are threatening the affordability of year round residents. I would urge the Town Board to reject the FIFD's request as being non beyond their authority. Thanks in advance. Bob Evans ATTENTION: This email came from an external source.

The primary mission of the Ferry District is"to provide (...) cost effective public marine transportation services from Fishers Island (...)year round". The secondary mission of the Ferry District is"to manage certain real property owned by the Town of Southold". Property acquisition and development, as is currently being proposed, is nowhere in the Ferry Districts own mission. We the undersigned believe that the bond initiative is actually counter to the Ferry District's stated mission regarding being"cost effective". In an informational meeting held by the Ferry District's board it was clearly stated that there is no plan in place to pay the bond back.When the board was asked if the money would have to come from cutting expenses, raising rates and raising taxes, the answer was yes, that is how the Ferry District gets its money. We do not believe that it is our best interest to be forced to fund the Ferry Districts land acquisidon with no stated benefit to the Ferry District itself. The bulk of the conversation with the Ferry District Board centered around"controlling"the property and"protecting" Fishers Island from some ill defined threat. The biggest"threat to the island"stated seemed to be the fear of a restaurant being built there. To most of us this,this 1. does not seem to be something to be feared, and 2. does not seem to be a realistic fear. Fishers has 3 eating establishments(not requiring membership to private clubs). Two of those are closed entirely for all but the short summer season. The third is open on an extremely limited basis outside of the summer season. There are simply too few people here off season to keep such a business afloat, let alone a business that, even to open its doors,would have to put out upwards of 2 million dollars, and then sit idle for at least 7 months of the year. An increase in boat traffic in Silver Eel Cove was also cited as a concern for any private development of the property. However, it has been determined that the waterfront would only accommodate a maximum of 8 dock spaces. Additionally, the Ferry District itself proposes developing that area to accommodate the maximum amount of dockage and then renting the spaces out to private boat owners, ensuring boat traffic that they have stated would interfere with ferry operations. r 2 Finally,we have learned of a proposed zoning change for the Coast Guard Property,frorn Business to Marine 1, prohibiting the development of businesses that are not marine related. So, no restaurants, no bars, no food trucks, no shops (other than marine related). It seems that as change would virtually eliminate the possibility of development of the property for most uses that the Ferry District board deems unsuitable for Fishers Island. In the next several years Fishers Island is facing the huge, and necessary, cost of replacing one of our ferries.We firmly believe that the Ferry District taking on unnecessary debt when already facing that necessary expense is counter to the Ferry District's mission and would be an excessive burden to residents, many of whom are already struggling to be able to continue living on Fishers Island. We have been led to believe that the Southold Town Board's role regarding backing a bond is to approve the request so long as the entity is allowed to raise money via bond initiatives,with no real regard as to what the money is to be used for.We are truly hoping that this is not the case. We are requesting that you review the Ferry District's mission and upcoming expenses and thoughtfully consider if this is, in fact, the best course for your constituents on Fishers Island. Thank you for your time and consideration on this matter.

Do not open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails. i 1 June 15th,2024 Re: Proposed Bond for Fishers Island Ferry District to Purchase Fishers Island Coast Guard Property Dear members of the Fishers Island Town Board - We are writing to express our serious concerns regarding the request for town backing of a 2.6 million dollar bond for the Fishers Island Ferry District to purchase the Fishers Island Coast Guard property, currently up for auction on Fishers Island. The primary mission of the Ferry District is"to provide{...) cost effective public marine transportation services from Fishers Island (...)year round". The secondary mission of the Ferry District is"to manage certain real property owned by the Town of Southold". Property acquisition and development, as is currently being proposed, is nowhere in the Ferry Districts own mission.We the undersigned believe that the bond initiative is actually counter to the Ferry District's stated mission regarding being"cost effective". In an informational meeting held by the Ferry District's board it was clearly stated that there is no plan in place to pay the bond back.When the board was asked if the money would have to come from cutting expenses, raising rates and raising taxes, the answer was yes, that is how the Ferry District gets its money. We do not believe that it is our best interest to be forced to fund the Ferry District's land acquisition with no stated benefit to the Ferry District itself. The bulk of the conversation with the Ferry District Board centered around"controlling"the property and"protecting" Fishers Island from some ill defined threat. The biggest"threat to the island"stated seemed to be the fear of a restaurant being built there. To most of us this, this 1. does not seem to be something to be feared, and 2. does not seem to be a realistic fear. Fishers has 3 eating establishments(not requiring membership to private clubs). Two of those are closed entirely for all but the short summer season. The third is open on an extremely limited basis outside of the summer season. There are simply too few people here off season to keep such a business afloat, let alone a business that, even to open its doors,would have to put out upwards of 2 million dollars, and then sit idle for at least 7 months of the year. An increase in boat traffic in Silver Eel Cove was also cited as a concern for any private development of the property. However, it has been determined that the waterfront would only accommodate a maximum of 8 dock spaces.Additionally,the Ferry District itself proposes developing that area to accommodate the maximum amount of dockage and then renting the spaces out to private boat owners, ensuring boat traffic that they have stated would interfere with ferry operations. 2 Finally,we have learned of a proposed zoning change for the Coast Guard Property,from Business to Marine I, prohibiting the development of businesses that are not marine related. S0, no restaurants, no bars, no food trucks, no shops (other than marine related). It seems that US change would virtually eliminate the possibility of development of the property for most uses that the Ferry District board deems unsuitable for Fishers Island. In the next several years Fishers Island is facing the huge, and necessary, cost of replacing one of our ferries. We firmly believe that the Ferry District taking on unnecessary debt when already facing that necessary expense is counter to the Ferry District's mission and would be an excessive burden to residents, many of whom are already struggling to be able to continue living on Fishers island. We have been led to believe that the Southold Town Board's role regarding backing a bond is to approve the request so long as the entity is allowed to raise money via bond initiatives,with no real regard as to what the money is to be used for.We are truly hoping that this is not the case. We are requesting that you review the Ferry District's mission and upcoming expenses and thoughtfully consider if this is, in fact,the best course for your constituents on Fishers Island. Thank you for your time and consideration on this matter.
