Public Heating-Harper Purchase
2
The property is not listed on the Town's 2003 Community Preservation Project Plan List of Eligible
parcels; however, it is proposed to be added to the plan after a public hearing to amend the List of
Eligible parcels is held on April 12, 2005.
As per Chapter 87 (Transfer of Development Rights) of the Code of the Town of Southold, Section 87-
5, the Land Preservation Coordinator has calculated that 1 (one) Sanitary Flow Credit may be available
for transfer from the parcel of property upon the Town's purchase of the easement. The transfer of the
Sanitary Flow Credit into the Town TDR Bank will not be finalized, and shall not occur, until the
Town closes on the easement purchase, and the Town Board passes a resolution allowing the transfer
into the Town TDR Bank.
FURTItER NOTICE is hereby given that a more detailed description of the above mentioned parcel
of land is on file in Land Preservation Department, Southold Town Hall Annex, 54375 Route 25,
Southold, New York, and may be examined by any interested person during business hours.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I have notice that it has appeared as a legal in the newspaper, it has also
appeared outside on the Town Clerk's bulletin board, I have the Short Environmental Assessment form
and I believe that is complete.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank you very much, Councilman Wickham. Would you care to address
the Board?
MELISSA SPIRO, LAND PRESERVATION COORDiNATOR: Yes, please. Thank you. I guess
first I will point out the property and the same as we had before, the Harper property is the comer piece
right here on Lake and West Drive. I am assuming that the next resolution will be to adopt the list of
Community Preservation, so I am going to make the assumption that it is one of the properties that was
just added to our Community Preservation Plan list of eligible properties. I need to point out on this
purchase that it really involves significant amounts of private donations from, I think there was over 70
donors and I just want to explain the process a little bit. The donors made their donations to the
Peconic Land Trust and the Peconic Land Trust, using the donated funds, will be purchasing the
property from the current landowner. Then, probably at a simultaneous closing hopefully, the Town
will purchase, using funds from the Community Preservation Fund, the development fights easement at
a bargain sale, that is below market value from the Peconic Land Trust. These closings will result in
the Peconic Land Trust owning the fee title to the property and the town holding an easement, which
will protect the property from any future development, forever. The purpose of the easement is to
protect the environmental, natural and scenic values of the property. The public notice noted that the
property is .72 acres, I believe he said 3/4 of an acre. We got the survey today, it is slightly smaller, it is
.67 of an acre and the easement will cover the entire parcel. Before closing, I would like to thank Mr.
Harper for offering the property for preservation purposes and to all the individual donors who
contributed to this significant purchase. In addition, I would like to thank Lillian Ball, who spoke at
the prior hearing, who was really behind the organization of the private donors and of course, the
Peconic Land Trust. A preservation strategy mentioned in the Community Preservation is the
leveraging of public funds through public/private partnerships. This purchase is the result of such
partnering and I recommend that the Town Board proceed with the purchase. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Thank you very much. Would anybody else care to address the Board on
this specific heating? (No response) Before closing the heating, I do want to reiterate the gratitude
that Land Preservation Coordinator Spiro appropriately conveyed and that is the thanks to the

individual, the private investors I should say or participants in making this happen. It is very similar to
a public, private partnership that we brought to fruition, again through the hard work of not only our
departments but private residents, off of Diamond Lane, you'll recall that. Another similar situation
that brought to fruition the preservation of a specific parcel. So, again, thank you to the community
that was involved with this.
COUNCILMAN ROSS: And not to overshadow the significance of the purpose, I think we should
note the moment, I think this is going to be the first sanitary flow credit that gets deposited into the
sanitary flow bank. Hopefully used for affordable housing. So, thank you very much folks.
SUPERVISOR HORTON: Indeed.
Incentive District hearing.
And we will close the heating.
That brings us to our Rural

property is identified as SCTM #1000-59-1-20.1. The address is 1920 Lake Drive, Southold,
New York, and is located on the northeast comer of Lake Drive and West Drive in Southold. The
proposed acquisition is for an easement on the entire, approximately 0.72 acre (subject to survey)
property.
The property is being purchased by the Peconic Land Trust market value. The Peconic Land
Trust's purchase is funded by private donors. The Peconic Land Trust will then sell to the Town
of Southold, as a Bargain Sale, a development rights easement on the entire property. The
purchase price for the easement is $56,000 (fifty six thousand dollars) plus acquisition costs
associated with the transfer of title.
The subject property and the other properties located north of Lake Drive and in the vicinity of
Lake Drive, are comprised of a wetland and dune system dominated by ecological communities
classified as maritime dunes and maritime freshwater interdunal swales. Both of these
community types are listed as rare in New York by the New York Natural Heritage Program
(NYNHP) and the maritime freshwater interdunal swale community is currently listed as
globally rare. The preservation and protection of this property falls under multiple purposes of
the Community Preservation Project Plan, including, but not limited to, preservation and
protection of open spaces and scenic values, protection of wetlands, protection of significant
biological diversity and protection of unique and threatened ecological areas.
The property is not listed on the Town's 2003 Community Preservation Project Plan List of
Eligible parcels; however, it is proposed to be added to the plan after a public heating to amend
the List of Eligible parcels is held on April 12, 2005.
As per Chapter 87 (Transfer of Development Rights) of the Code of the Town of Southold,
Section 87-5, the Land Preservation Coordinator has calculated that 1 (one) Sanitary Flow Credit
may be available for transfer from the parcel of property upon the Town's purchase of the
easement. The transfer of the Sanitary Flow Credit into the Town TDR Bank will not be
finalized, and shall not occur, until the Town closes on the easement purchase, and the Town
Board passes a resolution allowing the transfer into the Town TDR Bank.
FURTHER NOTICE is hereby given that a more detailed description of the above mentioned
parcel of land is on file in Land Preservation Department, Southold Town Hall Annex, 54375
Route 25, Southold, New York, and may be examined by any interested person during business
hours.
