SUPERVISOR HORTON: The meeting is scheduled to commence at 7:30 P.M. but there are quite a
few people here who are standing, we are trying to provide a couple more seats. We are going to allow
a couple more minutes to put out some more seats for the public. Good Evening and welcome to the
November 19, 7:30 P.M. public meeting of the Southold Town Board. Before we get started, I wanted
to let those in the back, if you care to sit, there are about 12-14 more seats up in the front. As well, the
way that we run Southold Town Board meetings is if you would care to address the Town Board on
town related business that is not on the printed agenda, when I say the printed agenda I am referring to
the resolutions that we will be voting on tonight. I will afford opportunity for members of the
community to address the Town Board after we run through those resolutions. If you would care to
address the Town Board on the written agenda, on the resolutions, we will be voting on this evening, I
will make ample time for you to do so prior to the voting of those resolutions. As well, there are
several reports and communications that are available to the public for your reading. Those are
accessible at the Town Clerk’s Office, Monday through Friday between 8:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M. at
the Town Clerk’s Office. If you would care to review those, feel free to do so at those times. As well,
we do have two public hearings tonight, those are to commence at 8:00 P.M. and then, well actually
they are both printed at 8:00 P.M., that is a misprint. The first one will commence at 8:00 P.M. and
then the second one will commence after that. Before we get started, I actually asked two people who
worked for us and with us here in Town Hall to be in attendance tonight and I don’t know if they are
here. They are our two of our members of the Tax Receivers Office, if they are not here I will just
speak to what I intended to honor them on tonight. Dorothy Chituk and Rosina Suglia, back in the
winter-shortly after I took office-we lost our Tax Receiver, Marilyn Quintana. The office was then left
without a Tax Receiver and prior to the passing of Ms. Quintana, Ms. Quintana was not able to be here
in Town Hall as much as she would have liked to and Dottie and Rosina who were working as seasonal
employees’, who had worked with Marilyn for quite some time came into my office and spoke with
myself and John Romanelli and said that they would do whatever they could to ensure the proper
collection of taxes over the course of the year. And really bent over backwards, really went out of
their way to make things work in the Tax Receivers Office above and beyond their call of duty. So I
have two proclamations for them this evening. If they are not here, I will present them to them when
11/19/2002 2
Southold Town Board Meeting
they show up for work at 8:00 A.M. So I would like to publicly thank Rosina and Dottie both for their
self-less and tireless work in the Tax Receivers Office on behalf of the Town Board and I am assuming
on behalf of the Town of Southold. As well, I believe we have some presentations from the Landmark
Commission. Mr. Adler, would you care to come forward? And you can do so from the microphone.
HERB ADLER: I would like to ask the awardees of these plaques to step forward, Mrs.Zanganas and
Mr. and Mrs. Manduca. The Landmark Preservation Commission is pleased to present these plaques
in belief that those that take care of our heritage should be rewarded. The plaques are awarded to those
who are proud of their homes and apply to have these homes listed on the Town list of historical
houses. Let us hope that many other owners of such houses are willing to contribute to the ambiance
and charm of our community, by preserving these buildings. Thank-you.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: At this point, we will move forward with our regularly scheduled meeting
and if we could have a motion for the approval of bills.
Moved by Councilman Wickham, seconded by Councilman Romanelli, it was
RESOLVED that the following bills be and hereby are ordered paid: General Fund Whole Town bills
in the amount of $251,168.34; General Fund Part Town bills in the amount of $7,189.68; Highway

III. COMMUNICATIONS
None
JOAN EGAN: And where will that Town Hall meeting be?
COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: Right here.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: The question from the floor, which is usually stated from a microphone, is
where will that Town Board meeting be? The answer is that the Town Board meeting will be here in
the Meeting Hall. What I would like to do at this point is to offer the floor to the community in regard
to resolutions that are on the printed agenda. That would be resolutions #751 through #779. We will
11/19/2002 3
Southold Town Board Meeting
move through #779. If there are members of the community that would like to speak to the Town
Board in regard to those printed resolutions, I would welcome that.
DICK MARSCHEAN: Dick Marschean, Southold. #776. How can we authorize a bond issue on an
item that we are going to have for discussion at 8:00 P.M.?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: We will not vote on that prior to the public hearing.
DICK MARSCHEAN: You won’t vote on this resolution?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Not until after the public hearing.
DICK MARSHCEAN: Okay.
JOAN EGAN: Good Evening, everybody. Good Evening, Mr. Horton, Mr. Romanelli, Mr. Richter,
Mr. Moore, Mrs. Evans, Mr. Wickham, Mrs. Neville and Mr. Yakaboski. Now, resolution 757, I don’t
understand that. What does that all mean?
COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: That means that last years, as Josh spoke earlier, when Marilyn
Quintana was not in, we moved personnel from another department into the Tax Receivers Office to
cover the shortfall. In essence, we are transferring the dollar numbers, the salary numbers into that line
so that we can balance out that budget for this year.
JOAN EGAN: Oh, we are trying to balance things out. That is wonderful. Okay, now. Oh, this one
really fractures me, #758, we have this musical chairs of attorneys. Are they all going to get a little
piece of the pie?
COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: That resolution is setting the sick time and the vacation time for the
two Assistant Town Attorneys.
JOAN EGAN: The two Assistant. It seems to me that every time that I come up here that there is a
different attorney. So who are the two, are there only two or are there these other ones who happen to
filter in and out. Are they also entitled to money?
COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: There is only two Assistant Town Attorneys.
JOAN EGAN: Then who are these other attorneys that keep coming, that take somebody elses place?
COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: I…
JOAN EGAN: You don’t know, that figures. Now, what is this #759, to cover a telephone modern
line?
COUNCILMAN ROMANELLI: Modem.
JOAN EGAN: Oh, modem. What does that mean?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Modem line helps to provide us internet access at Town Hall.
JOAN EGAN: And how does that relate to us and money.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: I am not sure that I follow your question.
JOAN EGAN: Well, is it going to be an expensive thing, is it a necessary thing? We have to start
saying no, no, no, no.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: This was budgeted for and is within the budget. It is moving from one line
to another.
JOAN EGAN: Now, on item 764 and 765, on what advice are you selling these shares or liquidating
them?
11/19/2002 4
Southold Town Board Meeting
SUPERVISOR HORTON: That is on the advice of our Comptroller who is involved with handling
those funds.
JOAN EGAN: Who is that again?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Our Comptroller is John Cushman.
JOAN EGAN: And where does he get his input to make this recommendation?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: He gets his input from several financial sources.
JOAN EGAN: Such as?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Such as the State Comptrollers Office, such as many of the banks that we
deal with.
JOAN EGAN: Oh, what about the financial institutions that are a lot more authorative? Your Merrill-
Lynch, A.D. Edwards I think that should be very seriously thought about in the changing market here,
I think you should think very carefully about liquidating anything at this point. Now, the other item
that I notice also is these ads that are run, they are supposed to be in both the Suffolk Times and the
Traveler-Watchman. And that ain’t happening. Let’s see it done. Thank-you very much.
ED SIEGMANN: My name is Ed Siegmann and I want to speak on #777. A very good number for
the budget. At the afternoon meeting, I wasn’t at the night meeting but at the afternoon meeting of the
budget there were a couple of questions asked that there was no answer given to them. One was said
that they would get an answer for them, that was the one in reference to the additional money that
would be coming in due to the fact that the assessed value of the Town changed. Did you get that
figure?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: In regard to the 3.42 increase?
ED SIEGMANN: Well, from what I understand is $3 million, just a little over $3,300,000 additional
assessed valuation to the Town of Southold. Whatever money that would produce in taxes, can you
tell us what the number is that that will reduce in tax money for you.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: I don’t have that figure on hand, Mr. Siegmann.
ED SIEGMANN: Well, I investigated through the Assessor’s Office and I was told that if the budget
had stayed the same as last year, the additional money that would come in from that would have
amounted to a $5 decrease per thousand in our taxes. Now what I would like to know, the additional
money that you are going to raise by increasing the taxes, that must be added to that additional money
that comes in from that over $3.3 million assessed valuation increase, right?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Yes.
ED SIEGMANN: So, no place have I seen this published in any paper telling the community that in
additional to the taxes that they are being increased that that amount of money was raised also and that
is going to be spent also. So it would amount to a lot more than a 7 or 8% increase in tax money that
you are spending. You are also spending the money that comes in from those additional taxes. I think
that somewhere you should let us know what that figure is. I was at the afternoon meeting and not at
the night meeting and there was some very good questions asked at the afternoon meeting. One of
them that a lot of people spoke about was the fact that this continuing increases of taxes, year after year
is driving senior citizens with fixed incomes out of town and also young people can not stay here any
more after they finish their educations due to the fact of what the cost is becoming out here. And I
notice that Nassau County has taken an interest in the fact that that is happening in their County. And
they have done something to try to resolve the problem for senior citizens. What they are doing this
year, is they are not going to add that increase to senior citizens on fixed incomes that have certain
levels of earning. I have a copy here and I want to give you each, one for each of you, to take a
reading of it with the possibility that you may find that something like that can be done here. And you
may say to me that that is a County or a Town, the reason I raise it with you is that fact that in
Southold where the Police budget is one of the largest budgets in the County and in the Town and
since it is in our Town, maybe you could add that in as being as similar to what a County is. And that
11/19/2002 5
Southold Town Board Meeting
you ought to consider that. There is one other thing that bothered me. I read a statement in the
newspaper that I was hoping wasn’t true and I am going to mention what it is and maybe you can let
me know whether it was factual or not. Tom, this is addressed to you. There was a comment in the
paper stating that LaRocca was the only intelligent, accurate account that was given at that meeting.
Now I can understand if that was said, that the possibility is that it was said because he agreed with all
of the increases that you want to put into effect and I want to remind you that there were a lot of other
things said at that meeting from people who were really concerned about some of the things that are
taking place in Southold. And I think if that comment was made, I think there ought to be an
explanation or at least excuse themselves for making such a comment. Thank-you.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: Thank-you, Ed for raising that. I said to our newspaper reporter and I
have no idea which paper, that that was an intelligent comment, I certainly didn’t say that it was the
only intelligent comment.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: We will continue on with comments from the public in regard to the
printed resolutions. Would anyone else care to address the Town Board on the resolutions? (No
response) With that being said, we will move forward with the resolutions.

FINDINGS, DELIBERATIONS AND DETERMINATION
MEETING OF NOVEMBER 7, 2002
In the matter of the application of Proper-T Permit Services, appellant, to reverse the determination of
the Southold Town Trustees made on February 20, 2002, denying applicant permission to construct a
single-family dwelling, partially on pilings, with an on-site sewage disposal and public water system
located on the property owned by Angelo and Josephine Padovan, of 22455 Sound View Avenue,
Southold: SCTM #1000-135-1-23 & 24.1.
RELIEF REQUESTED
This is an appeal to reverse the decision made by the Southold Town Trustees dated February
20, 2002, issued to Proper-T Permit Services, on behalf of Angelo and Josephine Padovan, denying
their request to “construct a single-family dwelling, partially on pilings, with on-site sewage disposal
system and public water.” Appellant requests that the board reverse the decision of the Trustees and
grant a variance on the following grounds:
1. Appellant maintains that a variance would not compromise the existing shorefront natural features,
cause significant adverse effects upon the environment or put the proposed dwelling in harm’s way.
2. Appellant maintains that there is no other reasonable, prudent, or alternative site owned by Mr. and
Mrs. Padovan that is not already developed and thus, the present location is the only available site for
said purpose.
3. Appellant alleges that the design of the proposed structure will be such that the only intrusion into
the beach area will be the installation of pilings necessary to support the seaward portion of the
structure above the beach area.
4. Applicant further maintains that, based upon the long-term and damage-free survival of several
structures of similar type located to the west as well as to the east of the proposed structure, it can be
expected that said structure will be reasonably safe from flood and erosion damage.
5. In addition, applicant maintains that the variance requested is the minimum necessary to overcome
the practical difficulty and necessary hardship which is the basis for the relief requested.
FINDINGS OF FACT
The Town Board of the Town of Southold held public hearings on this application on June 18,
2002, and July 16, 2002, at which time both written and oral evidence was presented. Based upon the
review of the files of the Town Clerk’s Office, the Trustees’ Office, the testimony and minutes of both
the Trustee and Town Board public hearings, personal inspection of the property, a review of a side
elevation drawing submitted by applicant dated December 10, 2001, a survey submitted by applicant
last dated May 23, 2001, and all other relevant documentation, the Town Board finds the following
facts to be true and relevant:
Relevant Code Provisions
Section 37-30 of the Southold Town Code addresses variances within the Coastal Erosion Hazard
Area. Initially, the law clearly indicates that the applicant shall bear the burden of proving that, if the
following criteria are met, a variance may be granted to circumvent the restrictions imposed on the
property. Key to this analysis, however, is that all of the applicable criteria enumerated in §37-30 of
the Code — sections A, B, C, D, and, if applicable, E — are met. The criteria are:
A. No reasonable, prudent, alternative site is available.
B. All reasonable means and measures to mitigate adverse impacts on natural systems and
their functions and values have been incorporated into the activity’s design at the property
owner’s expense.
C. The development will be reasonably safe from flood and erosion damage.
D. The variance requested is the minimum necessary to overcome the practical difficulty or
hardship which was the basis for the requested variance.

E. Where public funds are utilized, the public benefits must clearly outweigh the long-term
adverse effects.
1. Finding of fact: Is there a reasonable, prudent, alternative site available?
In addressing this factor applicant only alleges that no other property is owned which is not
already developed. Thus, applicant’s conclusion prematurely assumes that “the proposed location of
the dwelling on the property is the best location from all standpoints.” Based on the record, no
alternatives have been addressed by the applicant utilizing architects, environmental consultants,
contractors, the planning board or the zoning board to move the home landward towards Sound View
Avenue. Furthermore, the survey submitted by applicant suggests that there is in fact a portion of
applicant’s property, closer to Sound View Avenue, which would possibly allow for construction and
avoid, or, at the very least, diminish damage to the Coastal Erosion Hazard Area.
2. Finding of fact: Have all reasonable means and measures to mitigate the adverse impacts on natural
systems been incorporated into the activity’s design at the owner’s expense?
The applicant has failed to show that all responsible means and measures to lessen the adverse
impacts have been incorporated into the structure’s design. Indeed, the applicant has failed to show
mitigation of adverse impacts in any way and has not articulated to any degree of certainty how that
will be addressed. Rather, applicant merely describes how the structure would be built, and refers to
the existence of pilings for “other purposes routinely permitted throughout the Town.” Applicant fails
to provide any explanation or plan that will avoid or minimize any compromise or damage to the
1
existing shorefront and its natural features.
3. Finding of fact: Will the development be reasonably safe from flood and erosion damage?
The applicant has failed to show that the proposed structure will be reasonably safe from flood and
erosion damage. The applicant relies on the fact that other structures of similar type are still erect and
thus, it “can be expected” that this proposed structure would be free from erosion damage. Despite this
contention, however, nothing has been provided to the Board by way of an expert or environmental
consultant indicating that the area is actually reasonably safe from flood or erosion and thus, could
withstand the pressures of weather patterns without protection and without putting the dwelling in
harms way. Furthermore, applicant has failed to submit an engineer’s report addressing the state of the
structures of “similar type” relied upon. Moreover, due to the very nature of the coastal erosion hazard
area and its malleability and vulnerability to change, comparisons to other structures are not entirely
sufficient to address this factor.
Furthermore, while applicant refers to a structure currently on the property, as illustrated in
Exhibit A, it seems clear from even a brief review that the location of the proposed pilings, circled on
said exhibit, are located significantly further seaward than the existing structure. Moreover, though
applicant does not articulate how much further seaward these proposed pilings are, it also seems clear
that said pilings, as well as any dwelling and proposed septic system, will no doubt destroy the existing
bluff and, in turn, destroy the current vegetation, with no plan submitted or offered for re-growth.
Indeed, it is well-settled that a bluff protects shorelands and coastal development by absorbing the
often destructive energy of open water. Bluffs are a source of depositional material for beaches and
2
other unconsolidated natural protective features. Here, applicant’s proposal would destroy all such
bluffs and thus, destroy any protection the structure may have from soil disturbance, water runoff,
active erosion, and the impact of coastal storms. For these reasons, applicant cannot submit that the
development will be reasonably safe from flood and erosion damage.
4. Finding of Fact: Is the variance requested the minimum necessary to overcome the practical
difficulty or hardship which was the basis for the requested variance?
The applicant has failed to show that the variance requested is the minimum necessary to
overcome the difficulty or hardship. While a variance may be the minimum necessary to build any
structure on said property, this particular structure proves to be, for the lot size, a rather large, two-
story home, utilizing the entire area owned by Mr. and Mrs. Padovan and failing to limit or minimize
the damage that may be caused to the erosion area. Indeed, while the minimum lot size for a one-
3
family detached dwelling in the applicable R-40 zoning district is 850 square feet, the applicant
4
proposes a structure with a footprint that suggests the home will be at least 1600 square feet in size
and approximately 36 feet above the existing grade and 45 feet above sea level. In short, applicant has
1
At the time of this application, applicant had failed to obtain a permit from the Department of Environmental
Conservation (DEC) of the State of New York as well as the Suffolk County Health Department, and had likewise failed to
address concerns of the Health Department with respect to swaying and sand consistency.

Since the applicant fails to articulate the actual square footage of the proposed dwelling anywhere in the papers submitted
for review, this figure is only an estimate of the actual lot size.
11/19/2002 11
Southold Town Board Meeting
failed to demonstrate any effort to minimize permanent damage and prevent adverse effects upon both
the natural protective features and the natural resources present in the development site.
5. Finding of Fact: If public funds are utilized, do the public benefits clearly outweigh the long-term
adverse affects?
Because public funds will not be utilized, this section is not applicable and should not be
considered.
6. In addition to the above, the Board has considered all arguments and issues raised by appellant.
RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD
: In considering all of the above factors and applicable standards,
the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby resolves that appellant has failed to meet his burden
as required under §37-30 of the Southold Town Code. Because appellant has failed to meet the criteria
embedded in the Code, specifically, sections A, B, C, and D, the granting of a variance would be
contrary to the purpose and intent of Chapter 37, which ensures the protection of land use and land
development activities as well as the maintenance of natural protective features and natural resources.
Thus, the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby further resolves to
DENY appellant’s request to reverse the decision of the Board of Trustees denying appellant a
coastal erosion management permit and granting appellant a variance to construct a dwelling on
22455 Sound View Avenue. Thus, the denial of the Board of Trustees is hereby affirmed.

Councilman Moore, Justice Evans, Supervisor Horton.
This resolution was duly ADOPTED.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE AUDIENCE MEMBER: What is the percentage increase on taxes?
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE AUDIENCE MEMBER: What are the details?
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I would like to address that when the time comes for my vote.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: The percentage increase is 6.98%.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I would like to make a comment at this time. As the Supervisor said,
the numbers that are in this budget have varied a little bit from the one that went to public hearing two
weeks ago. There are some increases and some reductions here and there. The aggregate increase of
spending less the revenues, in other words, the aggregate impact is an increase of 6.98%. I think it is
really a very good budget in almost all respects and I worked hard for it, as have the other members of
the Board. I tried to convince the rest of the Board today that there was a place, several places, where
we could lop off about 1 ½ % on our taxes but I really don’t think I got the support of the Board, so I
am going to have to vote no on this budget because I think although it is basically a good budget we
could, there are places where we could have acted responsibly and reduced it by about 1 ½ %. So my
vote is no.
COUNCILMAN RICHTER: Yes but I would need to explain my vote on yes on this budget. One of
the areas that I think that we are talking about that Tom had just talked about is in our reserve fund
money that is carried over. I believe in fiscal responsibility, as does everyone else here, that is not a
finger point by any means. Conservative, making sure that we can meet the needs of the residents of
the Town are very important. This Town is very demanding, it is growing and we need to make sure,
we deserve to give the residents all the support they need that comes out of municipal government out
of the Town. This, with the reserve fund money that we have, to me is a conservative outlook, to make
sure that we don’t fall short in case of catastrophic incidences that may happen to the Town. To me
this is a very responsible budget. Thank-you.
COUNCILMAN MOORE: Let me just make a comment, since Craig and Tom have seen fit to. At
the last two sets of public hearings, the public heard that one of the biggest numbers that was added to
the Supervisors tentative budget was the $900,000 figure that we received from New York State and
no one on the Town Board really argued very hard that we didn’t have to put that dollar number in. So
$900,000 has been added to this budget. That is the lions share. The other places where we differ and
we agree on various points as a Board are really on the periphery. Tom’s proposal today had, it was an
interesting debate that we discussed. We have a certain reserve that we carry forth from year to year
and when Tom was Supervisor, the Town Board at that time passed a resolution saying as a matter of
public policy, we ought not take in any given year more than 50% of that years reserve towards the
upcoming years budget. So we agreed, I thought that we had, to abide by that decision and not dip into
it. The argument was, was the hit from the State Retirement Fund so great and so unusual that we
could justify dipping into the reserve a little bit deeper? Drop the tax burden a wee bit and if you
11/19/2002 31
Southold Town Board Meeting
talked about what the tax burden drop is, it is a wee bit - if we took 1% out of that reserve. The
savings on your tax bill would be infinitesimal. Yet the consequences, if we get the numbers wrong
come next year, we just spent our savings. I accepted Tom’s position from 1993 or thereabouts when
he put that policy in place, I thought it was a good policy. I am sorry that he is not voting for the
budget because really in all honesty, the only place we are playing around is how to shave that New
York State Retirement dollar figure. We have had conflicting information, at the time Josh presented
the budget, he had a dollar number-shortly thereafter, that is where we got the hit that said it was still
much higher. We can sit there and pretend that the actuaries in New York State who have given us
two different sets of numbers now, are wrong and we can be more-I don’t use the word conservative
because I think the budget as we proposed it with the 6.9% is very conservative. If it turns out that the
bill comes in August and we don’t need to pay $900,000 or $1.2 million to New York State, that is
great, we put the money in our budget and we are not going to fall short but we don’t have to spend it.
It will go into next years surplus. So, it is pennywise and pound foolish to say, I will shave a point
here in the hopes that the information that we have is wrong. No one on the Board wants to spend
money on taxes, we all have our homes and our offices. I don’t want to spend a dollar more in taxes
for the Town then I absolutely have to. With that being said, the Board worked very hard on this
budget and we wrangled around with it and I think that we are very responsible in presenting the
budget as we have to the Town, so I vote yes.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: I will say that I was pleased with the amount of input and interest shown
by the public, the residents of this community. The Board did gather together a couple more times
since that and I am pleased that the Board did go back into the conference room and open the budget
back up. I still believe that we could find more savings and with that being said, I thank the Board for
their hard work but I will have to cast my vote no.
Vote of the Town Board: Aye: Councilman Richter, Councilman Romanelli, Councilman Moore,
Justice Evans. No: Councilman Wickham, Supervisor Horton.
This resolution was duly ADOPTED.

SUPERVISOR HORTON: Again, I would like to thank you all, everybody that attended tonight, for
attending the public hearing and having input. One party thought on my behalf, that actually touches
on what Ms. Norden spoke to and it just something that we as elected officials working within the
confines of bureaucracy and government, one thing that we face as stated by a well-known
environmentalist, west of the Continental divide; states that the trouble the environmental movement
and government faces isn’t crafting environmental policy, it is crafting environmental policy that
protects people and most of all crafting environmental policy that protects the little guy and I think this
Board is going to take a longer, harder look at the issue and work together with everybody involved to
try to find the proper resolution as we go forward from here. So I want to thank you for your input and
thank you for taking the time out of your lives to participate in Southold Town government. Thank-
you. We are going to get started again. We will be moving forward with the regularly scheduled
meeting and the completion of the agenda and on the agenda is the voting on the bond resolution as
well as a couple of other items that we have.

11/19/2002 35
Southold Town Board Meeting
The Town hereby appropriates the amount of $750,000, in addition to the amount of $2,600,000
heretofore appropriated pursuant to the Bond Resolution adopted by the Town Board on March 13,
2001 (the “2001 Bond Resolution”), for the increase and improvement of the facilities of the District
heretofore authorized pursuant to the Resolution and Order After Public Hearing referred to in the
Recital hereof, described as the improvement of the certain piece or parcel (SCTM #1000-096-1-2,
reputed owner, Francis J. McBride) containing seventeen acres, plus or minus, of property immediately
adjacent on the west side of the Southold Landfill, in Cutchogue, heretofore acquired and now owned
by the Town Board in the name of the District, for the purpose of relocating the District’s existing yard
waste operations and to conduct composting and brush collection activities, as well as to provide
material to complete the capping and closure of the Southold Landfill, and to obtain additional space
for future District activities, including grading and improving of said property and purchase of the
equipment, machinery and apparatus required therefor (the “Project”), at the estimated maximum cost
of $3,350,000, including preliminary costs and costs incidental thereto and to the financing thereof,
being an increase of such cost in the amount of $750,000. The plan of financing includes the issuance
of $750,000 serial bonds to finance said additional appropriation, said $750,000 serial bonds being in
addition to the $2,600,000 serial bonds of the Town heretofore authorized to be issued pursuant to the
2001 Bond Resolution, to pay the cost of the Project and the assessment, levy and collection of special
assessments from the several lots and parcels of land within the District by the Town Board in the
manner provided by law, but if not paid from such source, all the taxable property within the Town
shall be subject to the levy of an ad valorem tax, without limitation as to rate or amount, sufficient to
pay the principal of and interest on said bonds as the same shall become due and payable.
Serial bonds of the Town are hereby authorized to be issued in the principal amount of $750,000
pursuant to the provisions of the Local Finance Law, constituting Chapter 33-a of the Consolidated
Laws of the State of New York (herein called “Law”), to finance said additional appropriation.
The following additional matters are hereby determined and declared:
The period of probable usefulness of the specific object or purpose for which said $750,000 serial
bonds are authorized to be issued, within the limitations of Section 11.00 a. 21 of the Law, is thirty
(30) years provided, however, that said bonds shall mature no later than April 27, 2031, being thirty
(30) years from the date of issuance of the first bond anticipation note issued in anticipation of the sale
of said $2,600,000 serial bonds.
The proceeds of the bonds herein authorized and any bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation of
said bonds may be applied to reimburse the Town for expenditures made after the effective date of this
resolution for the purpose for which said bonds are authorized. The foregoing statement of intent with
respect to reimbursement is made in conformity with Treasury Regulation Section 1.150-2 of the
United States Treasury Department.
The Town Board, acting in the role of Lead Agency, after due consideration to the impact that the
Project may have on the environment, has heretofore found and determined that, pursuant to the
applicable provisions of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (“SEQRA”), no substantial
adverse environmental impact will be caused thereby and, in pursuance thereof, a duly processed
Negative Declaration and/or other applicable documentation has been heretofore filed in the office of
the Town Clerk.
Each of the bonds authorized by this resolution and any bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation
of said bonds shall contain the recital of validity prescribed by Section 52.00 of the Law and said
bonds, and any notes issued in anticipation of said bonds, shall be general obligations of the Town,
payable as to both principal and interest by a general tax upon all the taxable real property within the
Town without limitation as to rate or amount. The faith and credit of the Town are hereby irrevocably
pledged to the punctual payment of the principal of and interest on said bonds and any notes issued in
anticipation of the sale of said bonds and provision shall be made annually in the budget of the Town
by appropriation for (a) the amortization and redemption of the bonds and any notes issued in
anticipation thereof to mature in such year and (b) the payment of interest to be due and payable in
such year.
Subject to the provisions of this resolution and of the Law and pursuant to the provisions of Section
21.00 relative to the authorization of the issuance of bonds having substantially level or declining
annual debt service, Section 30.00 relative to the authorization of the issuance of bond anticipation
notes, and Section 50.00 and Sections 56.00 to 60.00 of the Law, the powers and duties of the Town
Board relative to authorizing bond anticipation notes and prescribing their terms, form and contents
and as to the sale and issuance of the bonds herein authorized, and any other bonds heretofore or
hereafter authorized, and of any bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation of said bonds, and the
11/19/2002 36
Southold Town Board Meeting
renewals of said bond anticipation notes, are hereby delegated to the Supervisor, the chief fiscal officer
of the Town.
The validity of the bonds authorized by this resolution, and of any notes issued in anticipation of said
bonds, may be contested only if:
such obligations are authorized for an object or purpose for which the Town is not authorized to
expend money, or
the provisions of law which should be complied with at the date of the publication of such resolution,
or a summary thereof, are not substantially complied with,
and an action, suit or proceeding contesting such validity, is commenced within twenty days after the
date of such publication, or
such obligations are authorized in violation of the provisions of the constitution.
This resolution shall take effect immediately.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: Yes, I believe that we have to do this in order to complete the projects
that are underway.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: I feel that there were other proposals brought forward to the Town Board in
how to finish off the compost facility and I have maintained that and I still maintain that we should
reduce the scope of that project and reduce the facility itself.
Vote of the Town Board: Aye: Councilman Wickham, Councilman Richter, Councilman Romanelli,
Councilman Moore, Justice Evans. No: Supervisor Horton.
This resolution was duly ADOPTED.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: We have one more resolution, so if we could please have the floor to do
so.

GEORGE MELLAS,
and a copy be transmitted to the family of that we may extend to them our
sincere sympathy.
Vote of the Town Board: Aye: Councilman Wickham, Councilman Richter, Councilman Romanelli,
Councilman Moore, Justice Evans, Supervisor Horton.
This resolution was duly ADOPTED.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: This concludes the resolutions that we have before us this evening. At this
point it is our custom to offer the floor to the public to address the Town Board on town issues that
were not on the printed agenda or that you may have concerns.
MIKE DOMINO: Thank-you, Mike Domino. I am here as Co-Chairman of the Tree Committee, I
want to back-track a little bit, #761, I didn’t see that before and I apologize for that but I have a two
point question that I would like a clarification on what that actually says and the second part-how can
that be? We are an advisory Committee, we had no input on this, this is how I learned of this right
here. And how is that done.
JUSTICE EVANS: It is a budget modification, to take a donation that has come in for the Town and
put it in the Tree Committee’s budget to pay for that memorial tree.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Mike, it states, “Please consider the following resolution and it is to the
Town Board from the Tree Committee. Please consider the following resolution to modify our current
budget. This modification is requested to appropriate unexpected revenue received from gifts and
11/19/2002 37
Southold Town Board Meeting
donations and will be used for removing, transporting and transplanting 31 trees from Briarcliff.” So it
is to meet that request.
MIKE DOMINO: Okay, now I see. Thank-you very much.
UNKNOWN: While we are on the issue of volunteers in the Town and things. I think as a member of
the Tree Committee whose term is about up and as a crazy person, I have applied to be reconsidered to
be abused for a couple more years, I think in considering the way the volunteers are treated currently in
this Town on Committees where you have a time where you are allowed to have a meeting and you are
told that there is not enough space in Town Hall for you to have a meeting. You can be limited to an
hour, when you only meet once a month or you are sent to a new building out in nowhere that has no
heat so that you probably can’t get anything accomplished as last month’s meeting happened, I would
just like the issues tonight that were discussed were valuing human worth and I think this whole Town
runs on the force of volunteers through all the organizations, through volunteer firemen, through
everything and I think in considering the positions that are before you for nominations for committees
that serves this Town tirelessly, we were comparing notes about how many hours a week people like
Mike and his co-chairs and whatever spend of their own time when they are businessmen, when they
are giving up…they spend close to 10 hours a week, with no pay, using their own vehicles, breaking
their own backs to plant trees for free for this community and whenever we ask for consideration of
following out the mandate that calls the Tree Committee to come into being, we are sloughed off, that
there is something else more important. We are trying to preserve the Town, we are trying to keep
things green. And for some reason, the legislation that the Tree Committee was given when they were
founded 11 years ago was that they come up with a tree code. Now, we have spent tireless hours
working on researching every other tree code in this country and have presented it to you on a couple
of occasions and we have been ignored. This is a Board that some of you were elected on conservation
reasons and we are not meeting that thing. And we are watching. I have a question. How, when a
person clears for a vineyard, how many years do they have before they plant the first vine? How many
years, I mean acres and acres and acres are cleared and do we have a guarantee that that will be a
vineyard? Do we have a guarantee that they won’t use Round-up and pollute our water with another
things that Temik did before? There are all these considerations and most of all I just ask that you
cherish the volunteers in your Town and use them wisely. Thank-you.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank-you. Would anyone else care to address the Town Board on town
related business?
JOHN SKABRY: My name is John Skabry, I live in Peconic. Thank-you very much for giving me an
opportunity to speak to you tonight. This is only a second thought that our flag should be prominently
displayed to the right of the audience, when it is put in the corner or against the wall it doesn’t reflect
well on us. It belongs on the right side in the audience, on the right side behind the speakers on the
podium. I come to you tonight to talk about Grace’s Place, the Peconic Land Trust and the Farmland
Preservation. I spoke to you in May at the Southold High School, myself as well as three neighbors.
We felt as though there was some kind of a connection between Grace’s Place, which is a daycare
center for migrant children in residential property, on Route 48 and the purchase of development rights
to the adjoining six lots of this eight lot subdivision. We are all familiar where it is, on Route 48 next
to the Amoco station. I sent a letter to the editor, I also sent a copy to you folks. Subsequent to sending
you that letter, I came up with the numbers reluctantly from the Peconic Land Trust. The Town
purchased the development rights in May or authorized those that purchase for $400,000 to 12 acres of
land. 6 lots. In August the attorney for Grace’s Place sent a letter to the Town Planning Board urging
them to go ahead with the purchase of the development rights and that would speed up his ability to get
a Planning Board approval. That is in the file in the Planning Board. On August 22, the Land Trust
purchased these same six lots. I was not able to ascertain a purchase price when I wrote this letter to
the editor. Three weeks ago, I called Perry L. Yelman, I called Melissa Spiro at the Town Hall. She
referred me to the Peconic Land Trust to find out how much the Land Trust paid for this lot. I am
pretty sure from talking to members of the Board privately, that you weren’t aware of the fact that an
individual was going to buy this land for $134,000. We paid $400,000 for the development rights to
those 12 acres and almost immediately after that, the Peconic Land Trust sold it to an individual named
Thomas Hubbard, Esquire, who has an office on Lexington Avenue in Manhattan for $134,000. He
has title deed to the land. So a total of $534,000 was put into this land, we built equity for an
individual. That is exactly what we did, with our almost half a million dollars. Now, I want to
compare that- the letter in the paper from the Peconic Land Trust saying that I made some mistakes. I
made no mistakes in the letter, all my dates are correct and my figures are correct. I couldn’t get a
purchase price and that wasn’t in my letter. I want to do what they called the bargain. They thought
11/19/2002 38
Southold Town Board Meeting
this was a bargain. Mr. Hubbard owns 12 acres of our town land, a barn and an irrigation well with
about 900 foot frontage on Route 48, for $134,000. That works to $33,333 per acre. Suffolk County,
just down the road in Mattituck bought Strawberry Fields where the Strawberry Festival is held, that is
mentioned in the Peconic Land Trust color brochure, takes about a quarter of a page. There is no
mention of the purchase of this land by Mr. Hubbard through the Peconic Land Trust in this entire
bulletin. And that happened prior to or at the same time of the County buying the land. The County
bought 37 acres for $1,495,000. That works out to $40,405 per acre and the County owns the title and
deed to the land. They can do what they please to that land. We paid $33,000 for development rights,
the County paid $40,000 for the land itself. We all know that the former Town Supervisor of the
Town, Frank Murphy had a lot to do with this project, he was the real estate broker, I told you about
that in my previous letters. Perry Yelman, the project manager, also told me that the President of the
Town Board of Trustees is going to lease that farm from Mr. Hubbard. I need to know why every
farmer in Town doesn’t get notification when a piece of property that we buy the development rights to
with taxpayer money gets the right to bid on that. It is just not fair, the President of the Town Board of
Trustees, Al Krupski, is going to lease that land from Mr. Hubbard.
COUNCILMAN MOORE: Can I step in for just a second, John, because you are throwing a lot of
information this way and maybe a little bit coming back your way can help. The Land Trust and I
don’t know the details of this particular purchase but the Land Trust often enters negotiation to acquire
a piece of property, to ensure that the owner, the private owner, gets their full value. In this instance, it
sounds to me from what you are telling me, the Town bought the development rights, that was one
component piece of that purchase price and had in the wings Mr. Hubbard. Now, Mr. Hubbard
decided to buy fee title to the bottom of it, he owns it, it is not for the Town to decide-he can decide
who he will lease that property to. Now, Mr. Hubbard is also the same man who has picked up in
Town an entire range of property that is up on Route 48. Back when the re-zoning was being done, he
stepped in and bought up land up and down Route 48 and donated development rights and other
properties back to the Town. He has been an extremely conservation minded individual, a lawyer from
New York City who has nothing but the best interests of the Town and open space and preservation for
the North Fork. So I don’t want you to cast aspersions on his motivations, to sit there and facilitate the
acquisition of this property and keep it in farming and that is really the bottom line. And it is done in
component pieces where the underlying owner gets his full price, development rights are one piece of
it and Mr. Hubbard steps in and buys the remaining value of the land and then turns around and leases
it to a farmer. That sounds like a win-win to me.
JOHN SKABRY: A win-win to me would be if the Town paid the $135,000 for the lease title for the
land and owned the land and that the Town also bought the development rights to the land. We are
building equity in property and somebody else, with our Town tax money.
COUNCILMAN MOORE: We are not in the business of buying up everybody’s land in town. We
have bought development rights off, we are not taking fee title. If the Town takes fee title, it comes off
the tax rolls.
JOHN SKABRY: And that is what happened in Grace’s Place. It is all facilitated for the building of
Grace’s Place and getting the approval of getting a Planning Board site plan approval. I did explain to
you in letters prior to this that the building of Grace’s Place is a racist, bigoted project. It will take 50
children, Hispanic children, the children of our migrant farm workers, out of the present day care
centers that they are in now, which is the Perry Center in Greenport, Church of the Open Door in
Southold and Stotsky Park in Riverhead and place them next to a railroad track, where it is against a
State law to build a school, less than 200 feet from a gasoline station and take them out of the
environment which is integrated with my children, my grandchildren, black people, people of all
nationalities and condemn them to a daycare center where only Hispanic children will be. That is
economic and social segregation. I hope you can do everything that you can, to prevent that from
happening.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank-you, Mr. Skabry. Would anyone else care to address the Town
Board on town related business?
DAN ROSS: I would like to address, basically what is an eyesore at the entrance to Southold Town. I
am talking about the North Fork deli, the burn out. It has been there, we are approaching two years I
believe, and every time I fill up my tank at Hess my blood pressure goes up. Things in government
take time, I understand that but I don’t think anything is being done about this particular problem and I
question whether you can adopt a comprehensive land use legislation if you can’t move a burned off
11/19/2002 39
Southold Town Board Meeting
deli off the Main Road. It is an embarrassment. It is just as you enter town and it is getting worse. I
know you don’t reside there. I don’t know if some of the members from the East end of town or off
Long Island have seen it. May I hand this up?
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Certainly.
DAN ROSS: I have, I will provide a copy of the deed. Councilman Richter, in a letter to the editor
this year, you indicated that the Town Attorney has done everything that you have asked him to. I
don’t doubt that for a second, I don’t doubt that the Code Enforcement personnel in the Town and the
Town Attorney’s Office would do everything they could do that this Board asked them to do. That is
why the six of you have to take the lead on this and direct your people to do something. You may be
told, someone may have told you that you can’t do anything about this and I will tell you that that is
not right. Something can be done, a town in the State of New York does not have to put up with a
situation like that. And the people of Mattituck should not have to look at that every day. So please
address this issue. Put it at the top of your list and thank-you for your attention.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank-you, Mr. Ross. We will do so. Would anyone else care to address
the Town Board?
CARMEN SWEENEY: My name is Carmen Sweeney and I live on Wickham Avenue in Mattituck. I
have been to Mr. Forrester’s office because next door to me my neighbor has what I consider a
commercial dumpster, a large commercial dumpster in his front yard. He allows his friends, his family
to dump garbage in there. In the summer time the smell is bad and I have seen rats. I have addressed
Mr. Forrester on this several times and he tells me there is no code that says you can’t keep a dumpster
on your front lawn. It is really ugly and if there isn’t a code, I think there should be one. But a
commercial dumpster on private property should not be allowed. I did go around, I don’t have the
pictures with me but I have driven around and there are several places where dumpsters on residential
property is allowed. It is terrible. I think it is ugly looking, I will bring you pictures of it. When the
garbage man comes to pick it up, they do just like they do on that commercial with the great big
dumpster thing. The noise is horrendous, he comes early in the morning, they dump that thing up.
This is a residential, I am sure none of you would like it next door to you. Please address this, to pass a
code, it should maybe be in the backyard someplace but then the neighbors in the back wouldn’t like it.
Thank-you.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank-you. Mr. Marschean.
DICK MARSCHEAN: Dick Marschean, Southold. I only have three items, I know it is getting late.
On the moratorium consultant that we talked about at the last Board meeting. Do we have a progress
report as to where they are since we passed that resolution back on October 8?
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: We had a progress report during the work session this morning. There
is a two page memo that will be posted on our website shortly. The work of the group is primarily
doing two things at this stage. One is preparing a set of common definitions that is agreeable to all
parties. And secondly a data set of numbers that doesn’t, that is not ambiguous. That is clear-cut, that
means the same thing to everybody. That work should be complete in a couple of weeks when they
can get into some of the substantive tools that we have been discussing earlier this year.
DICK MARSCHEAN: Is the website the only way in which you are going to communicate with the
community, then?
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: Well, that is the way so far that you can get the update they presented
to us this morning. There definitely will be public hearings, there will be information meetings, there
will be a more formal mechanism once they get into the substantive part of the planning exercise.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Mr. Marschean, that information will also be available in Town Hall. The
actual paper document.
DICK MARSCHEAN: Then I assume that part of their charter is going to take into the school, since
you people have to collect the taxes for the School Board. The thing I think you only should make
sure that the school people have an input or you should have an input to their data base since they now
say that they maybe have built a school that is possibly too small. So I think this has got to be part of
the generic environmental impact statement. I am just hoping that the moratorium consultant is maybe

going to find out where the database that the school people are using to make sure that we are all
playing off the same page.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: We will bring that comment to them.
DICK MARSCHEAN: Alright. And then the last comment that I have here is on the Whitaker House.
Based on what I read in the newspapers and that is all you can do these days, the Suffolk Times and
you heard a lot of that tonight, as far as I am concerned the Whitaker House has no viable alternatives.
I think a lot of work has to be done by this Board before they can make any kind of decision on what
should be done with the Whitaker House. I think that there were a lot of solutions raised in the Times, I
think there is a lot of data that is already out there with people actually trying to refurbish this building,
refurbish the Whitaker House, I think there is no problem is the Whitaker House was kept with a
façade to keep its historical integrity. You can gut the back and do anything you want with it and that
is what they have done down in Alexandria, which I am familiar with, where my daughter used to live.
In old town Alexandria which has a very strict architectural commission and so forth and so on. So
you can borrow on that idea as something you can do with the Whitaker House. That doesn’t
necessarily mean you have to use all of it and the same thing with this building here, I think that some
of the treasures that we have in the basement of this building regarding historically, the history of this
Town should be brought out of the basement so we don’t have a catastrophe, so I think these are some
of the things that we need. I think we need a refurbished Town Hall and I think renting, what we are
doing in Feather Hill is not long-term solutions. So that is my comments on where I think we are with
the Whitaker House. Thank-you.
