COUNCILMAN MURDOCK: This morning we had a presentazion to the
Board by Lovisa Construction Company on a refuse to energy 6ogeneration
facility. Their proposal for the Town 6f Southold is 70 odd pages which
the To~ Board, of course, has not had time to read. It is another
proposal similar to Energy Developmenz Corporation that puts the Town
in the position to have two proposals to weigh in terms of burning
municipal solid waste and hopefully solve some of the problems that
we're ~nder. The other little items we did in terms of putting the---
Highway Superintendent is going to put a little longer, or actually a
perpendicular piece of fencing at Bailey Beach Road to keep people
from obtaining access to the dunes in Mattituck. That's about all
for now Bill.
COUNCILMAN DRUM: I have nothing.
COUNCILMAN NICKLES: Nothing to report.
COUNCILMAN MURPHY: Last Tuesday night we had an information meeting
on seed clams here in the Town Hall. It was very well attended by
a lot of baymen, a lot of people who were just interested in the
program and a lot of people who wanted to find out what was going
on with this. The program seemed to go over very well. The baymen
accepted it, seemed to accept it very very much. They Would like
to participate, in this and hopefully next Town Board meeting we'll
have a resolution when we set up a final agreement with the man
who's_Paul Flacke from East Hampton who's going to run the program.
We'll have a resolution authorizing this %o establish it next year.
It holds great promise for our creeks and it's something worthwhile
trying out here. That's it Bill.
SUPERVISOR PELL: Thank you. My Supervisor's report. I'd just like
to report that I am working on the budget with the different depart-
ment heads. Everybody from the White House right on down to the Town
330 SEPTEMBER 8, 1981
Board is conscious of the budget taxes and one way to win friends is
to say "yes", but the other way is to keep the budget in line, say
"no" and when I do present the budget to the Town Board for review
~he~e ~e goia~ to ~e a lot of red lines t,hrough requests. It is
something I feel has to be done to maintain status quo on our tax
rate. The county is going to lose a lot of money. If they lose it
we lose it ali the way down. It will be felt down at our level.
COUNCILMAN DRUM: There may be nothing left to cut.
SUPERVISOR PELL: There might not be, Hank. On the railroad. There
is a gentleman here and he can address the Board later on. We have
contacted the governor's office to set up a meeting out here with
representatives from the railroad. There was a meeting held ThUrs-
day of this past week in New York at Twin Towers on budget. Operating
budget of the railroad. They notified somebody out here who mentioned
it the other day. We were advised to write a letter to the president
of the railroad requesting that a meeting be held out here in Southold
Town Hall and we were assured that it would be done. There were some
people they wanted to send our who were on vacation, they took the
Labor Day Weekend and. the rest of this week off and they said they
would get back to us in the very near future and they were quite sure
that meeting would be held out here. As soon as we get the date we
will give it to all the people that were there that night as well as
the Town Board~

SUPERVISOR PELL: I'd like to commenz on that.10 (a) and (b) if I
can for a minute. Last winter the firemen had a group that got
together, 20 of them throughout the Town and decided that we needed
a rescue team that could dive as well as the one we have ashore.
So the firemen--we have 1'2 or 13 firemen that took the course at
their own e~pense or whatever it was and we have one police officer
that took the course also. What we just did was buy equipmenz for
our police department, so with the one police we have, if he has to
join the firemen within a rescue dive ~o look for evidence or any-
thing we have an officer who is now trained and has the proper
equipment to go out and look for evidence or whatever they might
need. We feel very strongly about this because we have approximately
200 miles of coastline in Southold Town and we have, as you all know,
we lost five or six folks within the last month to the sea around
here. This is something that I am personally pleased zo see our
police department get involved with and I'm glad the Town Board
feels as I do to commit funds to this. I think it is a step in
the right direction.
Number 11 we are going to wait on. (Reappoint Assistant
Inspectors under the Southold Town Fire Code.) We are noz ready
to move ye~, even though these dates of these gentlemen will expire
on September 9th, they will continue to serve as hold-over appoint-
ments until we have cleared with all of them that they wish to be
reappointed or else the commissioners who recommend them to the
Town Board are satisfied wi~h the job they are doing.

SUPERVISOR PELL: The next one is another trans'fer O'f funds. I
want to explain a little bit why to a degree we are transferring
a lot of funds tonight. In Mattituck on New Suffolk ~v'enne we
are repamring that road. It is a 70/30 reimbursemenz. The Town
is putting up 30%, the state and federal are putting up 70%. We
must put up up front money before we can get reimbursed. We have
to pay for it basically first, then we submit a bill and it will
be eight weeks to zen weeks before we-get paid from the state for'
it. This went to contract in about 1977 I believe even before I
got on the Board. Inflation has set in like everything else and
the bid prices were received back in '77. The engineering fees
have exceeded, the cost of oil is up over it, but we had a commitment
to get $89,000.00 to ~traighten the road out from the state funds

so we are going ahead with it, but we do have to cover the expenses.
So this is why we are transferring into Highway, New Suffolk Avenue
Road you had us mention twice before and you are going to hear it
again. We are going to transfer $50,000.00 to put on asphalt on
it. That $50,000.00 will be reimbursed vo the Town, but by law
before we can go to bid we must have the money earmarked and set ·
aside so we are making a transfer now of $50,000.00, but that
$50,000.00 will come back to the Town, au least 70% of it will
come back.
