"Gentlemen: This is to certify that the following action was taken by the Southold Town Planning Board ~ a regular meeting held on November 15, 1966: "IN the matter of the petition of Home Exchange, Inc., 250 Fulton Street, Farmingdale, New York~ relative to a change of zone from "A" Residential and Agricultural District to "B-2" Business District on certain real property situated at Mattituck, in the To%n o~Southold, Suffolk County, New York, and bounded and described as follows: (descrit~ion was no read again) "It was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board favorably recommends to the Southold Town Board the change of zone from "~" Residential and Agricultural District to "B~2" Business District the above described propertty. "The Planning Board has followed this application rather carefully. There is correspondence showing that Maiden Lane can be widened to a 50 foot or 60 foot raod ~nd d~dicated to the Town. In view of the fact there has been several attempts in the past to bring Maiden Lane up to standard width, we ~ee~ that this package might be a real benefit to the Town. "Respectfully submitted, /s/ John Wickham, Chairman, Southold Town Planning Board. " SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: At this time is these anyone present who wishes to speak in favor of the relief ~ sought in this petition. WILLIAM NILES, ESQ.: I am an attorney in Farmingdale, 250 Fulton Street. This application concerns itself with property owned by Harold Reeve & Sons, Inc.~ the property under discussion. My client is purchasing this ~ operty subject to the favorable granting of this petition. I would li~e to point out the application itself pertains -4- to property that fronts on Mattituck Creek. T~e property that is owned by the Heeve family which ~ the subject of this application. There is 180.50 feet on the north side of Middle Road and extends northerly 188 feet. That property is already in a Business District and thenc .......... lv~R. WTT~.~Z~vLs: ~S that property along between the laundromat and Maiden lane? WILLIAM N/-LES, ESQ.: Yes. BetWeen the Laundromat and Maiden Lane. That is in the basiness zone to a depth of 188 feet. The property which is the subject of th~ application is the remains~ the Reeve property extending north 180 feet all the way to Mattituck Creek, extending easterly to Maiden Lane, all the way to the property that is bounded on the east by Williams, extending to Wickham Avenue. The reason of making this application is to use all the property as business. My client felt it is not a feasible situation for him to attempt to use only the access to Mattituck Creek and the property that will be involved is front part of the property without having same business purpose. The approximately three and one half acres. What he proposes to do on the property, my client has a Long Island franchise on amphi-cars~ German manufactured automobiles that go into the water and become a boat. He has a sales office in Bethpage and proposed to use the front pDrtion of the property for that same Durpose~ but with the objectiye of being able to use the rear part in order to have access tothe water. This three and one half acres apparently is too large to completely devote to this one portion to sell a small complex on this ~roperty. What he plans is a small marina for boats and a restaurant to accommodate people by motor traffic and people on boats off Long Island Sound. These are the ~Yw-- three purposed for which the property is intended to beused. Part of the property is already zoned business. In connection with the recommendation made by the Planning Board, the Planning Board -5- is aware and I would like to make this Board aware widening of Maiden Lane. I would like dedication of Maiden Lane to the Town. to dedicate the to say some~ling about the Apparently there had been some problem of getting cooperation from the residents along Maiden Lane and its widening. That can be accomplished with the granting of this application. Any additional question I would be happy to answer. MR. SEIT~R: I don't get the connection between the cars and the marina. WILLIAM NILES, ESQ.: The amphi-car situation does require access to the water. This piece of property as it stands is more valuable ~d~ than simply to be devoted to amphi-cars. He needs access to Mattituck Creek in order to make it feasible for him to use the property on Mattituck Creek for a marina to hep carry that property. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON:, Is there anyone else present who wishes to speak in favor of this application? (There was no response.) SUPERVISOR k LBERTSON: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak in opposition to this application? MR. WILLIAMS: I would like to open my remarks to the members of the group and ~Lr. Albertson with a question if I may. Supposing this Board members were to come out of you front door in the morning to get a paper or whatever and see on the front of your property, cartons, milk cartons, empty beer cans just laying there, and in addition plastic jugs. We think all of t~.'e people would try to do something about it. Would try to find out what was causing the situation, find out what was happening and try to clean it up. I am not opposing to the front part of the property to be used for amphi-cars or whatever . it was going to be a motel. The only information I got was Home Exchange, application. I thought that with an office at 250 Fulton Street was making an As a property owner on ~ the Inlet, this is the way I -6- want to talk to ~ou. As a man representing the Westphalia Civic Association who are unable to be here tonight. The president ask me to relay this thought to you. We have at the present time a tremendous drive to keep various natumal resources as clean as possilbeo The Secretary of Interior has traveled with Mrs. Johnson to maintain the beauty in areas with natural assets. During the past years, especially since the Town dock opened, we are faced with a very serious problem~that is the water becoming a good deal more polluted that it was a few years ago. Boats come in there and anchor. There was 130 boats in there ~st July 4th weekend. This is a natural result of the fact that Mattituck at the time is the only harbor between Orient Point and ~rt Jefferson. This isn't just a problem in this area. I would like to read yQu something from the Suffolk Sun, dated December 19, 1966. (Mr. Williams read an article pertaining to the problems faced in East Hampton relative to the harboring of boats.) We are faced with a very similar situation living on the water. I moor my boat off my own dock and I have a head on it which we very s~ use. Over three years ago this creek was clean as a whistle, now there is scum. When the tide changes it drags away from my boat. We are faced with a very serious pollution problem. We need an extra marina in Mattituck Inlet like we need an extra hole in the head. We have Anchor Innj Naugles Dock, Mattituck Dock and Harbor Inn, and that is a sight I wish I have never seen. That was approved two years ago, and I don't know when they are going to get it done. But to put another marina in there and dirty up this water more, I would say is going to make that inlet so that when my grandchildren come down they can't go down there and ~im. You have to go down to the Sound. This is a x-~ rid~culus situation. As arrangement is concerned ~ am not in favor of it. to bulkhead, bring in more boats and a restaurnat, far as the proposed ~f they are going I am sorry, I am -7- against it. we had a study made on pollution and Mr. something to say about that. Seller has The Supervisor read the fo~Dwing letter: "December 20, 1966, Gentlemen: "Mr. Horace J. Williams is hereby authorized to represent the Westphalia Civic Association's membership of one hundred and ten in it's opposition to the proposed amendment to the building zone ordinance, changing from "A" Residential to "B-2" business, certain land along Mattituck creek in the area of Wickham Avenue and Maiden Lane "/s/ William F. Taylor, president." MR. W~_LLIAMS: I missed a point I wanted to make. two or three people on this. I ~uote Walter Juttner, Boat magazine. He tells that no one can dock a boat and flush the head. heads 1968. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: I have approached editor of Motor The only thing that can be done is to have recepticles at the that can be H~ emptied. That law does not go into effect until Es that a Federal Law? MR. WILLIAMS: That is a New York State Law. If you are going to run boats you must have pumps to clear out these receptic~es but can not seal the heads. MR. SE~T.RR: I live on West View Drive~ Mattituck. I am speaking for the Brower Woods Association. I made a study of the water pollution in Mattituck Inlet. This stud~ was started at the time Harbor Inn was under consideration. The figur~ that we have are frightening. The water test was made at high tide, ~~,T~9~U~w~kX and set to the lab. On October, 1965, the bacteria count was 20; June 1~ 1966~ the bacteria count was 80; ~ Labor Day, 1966, at 4 pm, the baceeria count was 400. This is to the point of absolute pollution, suitable and not at all ~w~ for swimming. The town has a sign up, no clamming on the east side Grand Avenue. That may not be due to the boats; count. It is appalling. Brower Woods Association. may be due to the cause Mattituck Inlet up to 400 bacteria Mrs. Seiler and I are representing the We are 100 per cent against any more marinas. We are still fighting this Harbor Inn and may ~ I add is just going to the point of a cesspool. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: Thank You. (Supervisor Albertson asked if all the samples had been taken in the~me spot and Mr. Seiler said they had.) SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: Is there anyone else present who wishes to speak against this application?' THEODORE MARANGAS: ~ live on Maiden Lane and Hamilton Avenue. I speak just for my family, myself and my wife. We live at the foot of Maiden Lane and I feel the same way these other folks do. As far as Maiden Lane itself, no one has even approached me to my knowledge as to our feelings on this. MRS. MARANGAS: We don't approve this road~ which he told you that we do. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: Anyone else wish to be heard ~ opposition to this application~ MR. WILLIAMS: We have young grand children. If they want to swim they have to go down to the Sound. We have come in on our boat on a Sunday afternoon and we have to come in ~ so that you can't pass another boat. There was 130 boats last fourth of July. There was some at Anchor Inn~ down at the Town dock. The whole basin was filled with boats. Where are you going to put m-w~ ~ anymore boats. You can't get in and out of there now. Before we can use our beach we have to rake of the debris. It never was like that before. That isn't why we came here ~ but that is ~ what we have got. -9- MRS. SEILER: The Harbor Inn will have 144 boats in there. I forgot the number of ~ boats this gentlemen wants there. I think it was 132 boats in there and there was 144 at Harbor Inn. This is 400 boats. At a Town Board hearing here on September 1964 in regard to tax on property if it got tothe point would are taxes be decreased, yes you told us that it would be taken into ~onsideration. Every year the taxes have gone up. I don't knowif anything has been done on that now. I think it is something the Town Fathers should look into. SLrPERVISOR ALBERTSON: It may be in the future the property would become less valuable~ it would be accessed accordingly. W.H. SMITH: I live on Cox Neck Road. We have access at Harbor Creek across from Westphalia, We are at the end of the creek. We don~t swim in the creek b~cause it is so polluted. Most of the people that live along the creek are summer people. They can't swim in the creek if thc;are going to get sick from swimming. We have go todo ~ somethi~ about it. He didn't tell us how big of a marina he would have. W~LLIAM NILES~ ESQ.: twenty five to thirty boats. MR. GUERTIN: We have right of way to Maiden Lane and no one came to use and asked us what we thought. Another thing, if they get 25 boats whatto stop them from 144 boats. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: Let me answer that question in this way. What we have to do here is consider the ~wm~ prol~rty. This man~n tell us what he is going to put there. He can sell this property next week. If this property is d~anged from "A" to "B-2", anything allowed in the "B-2" district can go in there. UN/~DENTIFIED SPEAKER: What is allowed in the "B-2" bussiness district (Supervisor Albertson read from the Southold Town Building Zone Ordinance the permitted uses in the "B-2" district.) UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Is there anything in there to limit the number of boats? SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: They are limited by the amount that can be accommodated. -10- MR. A. GUARELL: I am right across the water from Harbor Inn. I spoke against that. I can tell you about the assessment. It depends on the value of the property. I don't want to see this property for commercial purposes and that is why I am here. I have been here for many years. I don't think it is going to do our town any good to have this kind of a boat and it ~ld never be an -~-H asset. I think a "B-2" district would be a bad situation in this area. If he has a marina he will need gas is up to the Town Board. to this down zoning. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: pumps to service the boats. The decision I know our whole area is very much opposed Is there anyone else? MR. DELEHANTY: I wish we could settle this once and for all. The~e will be more applications for this type of thing. Alot of people who own residential property want to change to business because they can tripple the value of the land. I live on the inlet and this will affect me. People bought property on Mattituck Creek because it was residential. Everybody that comes into this town can buy a copy of the Zoning Ordinance, No one buys of land for zoning. Why can't it stay the way it is. M~ncF~p~x~u~w~ The Town Board is always looking for places to get money from to maintain a stable tax rate. We have plenty of business areas. Let the people go and pay the price for the land . Not buy it cheap and then have the zone change4. We have made studies to preserve open space in Suffolk County, Let's try and hang on to it. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: This can't be rapped up tonight. We can't make a decision tonight that would say no more changes of zone o n property. Anyone can ask for a changeof zone. They can ask for this change of zone over and over again if they want. You can't rezone one section of an area without be confronted with spot zoning to anything other than residential. Some of you pepple would say this is spot zoning, Does anyone else wish to be heard in opposition to? (There was no response.) -11- SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: other ? WILL/d%M NILES, ESQ. Anyone wish to be heard on way or the would like to take a minute for rebuttal. I observe that property owerns are very much concerned with reason to a pollution problem that has been getting worse. I would like to point out its first of ~oning I am sure proper development of this area and present property values. This is property with 400 feet of frontage on Mattituck Creek~ presently in a "A" zone. I would respectfully submit to you that wwTwNxM valuable use will be made of this property, ~ This property is in back of an existing business area, which is characterized by a laundromat. You have-a gas stat/Dn adjoining that on the east, and you have the Town dock at Mattituck Creek. This extends a character for the immediate vicinity of the neighborhood that would preclude this property from b~ing developed into 20,0rD square foot plots. This property should be for a commercial use. I started to comment with regard to pollution. I sympathize with them . I think steps should be taken to ~ solve this problem. I hope I ~w~ have made some point with the Board. We want to use this property in a way that is suitable in consideration with its value. MR. WILLIAMS: I think that is just too bad a little piece of property this isn't the only thing that could come there. There could be things that would be detrimental to the people living in this area. SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: There was mention made of the Town Dock. This is not a Town Dock. This is a park district, owned and operated by the park district. Is there anyone else Dresent who wishes to speak one way or the other on this application? (There was no response.) SUPERVISOR ~ ALBERTSON: Hearing none, I will close the hearing at this time for the further deliberation of the Board. -12- SUPERVISOR ALBERTSON: We will open the second hearing by reading the legal notice as it ~oncerns this hearing.
