Patricia Moore, Esq,: Good evening, Madam Chairman. Congratulations. Welcome.
I am here on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Pugliese. A little bit of history: This property - Mr.
and Mrs. Pugliese were one of the original participants in the Sale of Development
Rights Program. And this is one of those Sale of Development Rights that retained an
area that was to be a future development area - or future lots - for the children and it
has been fifteen y6ars and now the children have stayed around town. They wish to
build their homes on these properties and they are raising their families in Southold or
in Cutchogue. So, this is one of the examples of planning for the future and preserving
a property while keeping options open for your future family. So, this is probably
Number One Example of how to do it correctly. Thank you. If anyone has any
questions, we are ail here. Thank you.

Chairperson Woodhouse: 6'10 p.m. - Mendoza, Amelia - This proposal is to set off a
7.04 acre (Lot 1 ) from 26.69 acre parcel (Lot 2) in Orient. The property is located n/o
Main Road, 450' east of Greenway East, in Orient. SCTM#1000-15-2-15.1
Bruce Anderson: Good evening. Bruce Anderson, Suffolk Environmental Consulting, for
the applicant - the Mendozas.
I want to go over some of the history of this so everyone understands how we got to
where we are today. This is, as you said, a 26..7 acre parcel that was purchased by the
Mendozas in the late summer, early fall of 2002. It was purchased as one lot and the
Mendozas bought it so they could build their home on it. They built a dwelling, a garage,
a pool and an accessory structure. We had - the Mendozas proceeded through this
regulatory process. They had attempted to secure a variance approval from the Zoning
Board of Appeals to construct a guesthouse on the property. The condition of that
variance approval was to be that the guesthouse could not be deeded out separately
from the main house. The purpose of the guesthouse is to provide a small living
accommodation for the Mendozas in-laws. That variance was turned down and the
Zoning Board requested that we come to this Board for a set-off. We initially met with
this Board on May 2"d and then again on June 25, 2003 and, on the basis of those
meetings, the set-off being for the creation of this 7.044 acre waterfront lot. Those
S0uthold Town Planning Board Pa.qe Seven January 12, 2004
meetings went very well and, on that basis, we proceeded with a formal application
which was for the following September 16, 2003.
The set-off is exempt from the subdivision moratorium and the reason why it has gained
that exemption is because we have offered a covenant barring further division of Lot
One, the waterfront lot. So, Lot One becomes a seven acre parcel that cannot be
further subdivided in the future. We are finally before you tonight on the public hearing
based on '~l~ose conditJ0~s and facts. The accessory structure that is found on Lot Two
~vould be co~ve~ted to a principle structure which accomplishes what we have been
trying're dO all along, and ~Piat is to provide a small living accommodation for the
Mehdoza~, in-laws. Tl~a~, strUcture would comply with zonir~g ir~ every respect both off
[l~b ri~ht-bf-way and then also - which would constitute the.fro~t. It}t line - and also the
COrh'rnon divlsiOh I[~e~ I~e~veen Lot Two and Lot One, which Wou d b'e'the side yard in
this cg~se.
Part and parcel to what's going on with this map, at the request of this Board, the then
existing fifteen foot access easement, which runs along the eastern side lot boundary of
the overall parcel, would be expanded to fifty feet and that expansion is shown on the
maps that have been filed with this Board. Following the outcome, i understand that the
hearing cannot be closed today because the appropriate referral to the Suffolk County
Planning Commission was not made within the time frame otherwise required in Order
to close this hearing. That doesn't bother us really but it must be understood that the
accessory structure on Lot Two will be converted to a principle dwelling. It is designed
for easy com, ersion. Our architect is away this week. That would be Samuels and
St~elman - and that.application will be filed on his return back to the office next week.
Again, this is a simple set-off to create an over-sized lot that cannot be further
subdivided which is consistent with the Town's density reduction goals and also
preservation goals. We t~ust we can move through the process towards its approval.
There will be -because the lots exceed five acres in size - there is no requirement for
Health Department approval and we are in the process of obtaining a letter from the
H~alth Department that will state just that, that no permit is required. There would filing
of the amended easemeht expanding it to fifty feet from its present fifteen feet and
th'ere would be a curb cut permit obtained from the New York State Department of
Transportation, who controls Route 25. We expect little or no probletn with that because
the curb cut already exists. There already is access into the lots. That is essentially our
presentati(~n. That is what we wish to do. Are there any questions?
Jerilyn Wo0dhouse: Does the Board have any questions? (There were no questions
from the Board.) Comments? (There were none.) Does anyone in the audience have
any questions or comments? (No one wished to be heard.) O.K. Is there a motion to
close the hearing?

questions for the Board? I would like to entertain a motion to close the meeting.
Mr. Caq.qiano: Madam Chairman, may I make a comment?
Jerilyn Woodhouse: Yes, you may.
Mr. Caq.qiano: I would just like to say, and to put on public record, simply a statement
that to recognize the long years of service that Ben Orlowski had given to our Planning
Board. He was on here for probably twenty years. I think it is appropriate that we make
that acknowledgement for the work he has done on behalf of the Planning Board. And,
as you know, many of you - that it was actually Benny who proposed the moratorium to
the Town which you are now living under and the proposal of the extension. He also
last year has been named as the Chairman of the Year from a New York State Planning
Association as well as receiving recently the Civic Person of the Year from the Suffolk
Times. I think that speaks well of himself and the service he has given the Town and I
would like that entered into the record as a matter of record. Thank You.

Jerilyn Woodhouse: Thank you.
Mr. Edwards: Madam Chairman, if I could add - I would like to echo that also from
Fishers Island. Benny was a huge help with the affordable housing project on Fishers
island which is a one of a kind, as you may know or may not know, in the State of New
York. So, again, I would like to extend my sincere thanks from the people of Fishers
Island for his help in that particular endeavor.
Mr. Cremers: I would just like to add one other comment that an attorney, about two
months ago, told me that John Wickham has done so much to preserve so much land
here and, Jbhn Wickham was the one that recommended Benny to the Planning Board
a'nd, about two months ago, this a[torney told me there are two things that have
preserved Southold so far an8 the first one was water and the second one was Benny
Odowski. I would like to add that.
