October 23, 2000
WHEREAS, a final public hearing was closed on said subdivision application at the
Town Hall, Southold, New York on October 23, 2000; and
WHEREAS, the $outhold Town Planning Board, pursuant to Chapter 58, Notice of
Public Hearing, has received affidavits that the applicant has complied with the
notification provisions; and
WHEREAS, all the requirements of the Subdivision Regulations of the Town of Southold
have been met; be it therefore
RESOLVED, that the $outhold Town Planning Board grant conditional final approval on
the surveys, dated August 23, 2000, and authorize the Chairman to endorse the final
surveys subject to fulfillment of the following condition. This condition must be met
within six (6) months of the resolution:
The filing of new deeds pertaining to the merger of 8,465 square feet from a
9.52 acre parcel, SCTM # 1000-122-2-24, and adding it to a 11,272 square
foot parcel, SCTM # 1000-122-2-6.

Mr. Orlowski: 6:05 p.m. - Harry & Lorraine Broom - This proposed lot line change is to
divide an 11,517 sq. ft. parcel, SCTM#1000-10-3-25, between a 1,826 sq. ft. parcel,

will be added to the 1,826 sq. ft. parcel, and 2,332 sq. ft. will be added to the 8,748 sq.
ft. parcel. The property is located on Peninsula Road, Fishers Island.
Are there any comments on this?
Barry Rosenber,q: Mr. Chairman, I'm the owner of the property that is bounded by the
two lots that are being named as being combined with the third lot. The property defined
in one lot also includes a right-of-way and my original deed map upon acquisition of my
property showed this right-of-way extending to the water line. The submissions that I
received show the right-of-way stopping some 25 to 40 feet from the water line. I think
Southold Town Planning Board Page Four October 23, 2000
it's appropriate that the right-of-way be continuous as it was in the original lot line shown
before.
Mr. Turner: Yes, we talked to the applicant about this and they found some information
that they thought there might have been an error when they created the map and,
according to the deed, you do have a 12 foot right-of-way down to the water and what
we asked them to do is we are not going to sign the map until they give us a new map
showing the right-of-way access down to the water.
Mr. Rosenber.q: Under that condition then ! would withhold any objection.
Mr. Orlowski: O.K. Any other comments? Hearing none, any comments from the Board?
(There were none.)
I'll entertain a motion to close the hearing.
Mr. Edwards: So move.
Mr. Latham: Second.
Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. Any questions on the motion? All those in
favor?
Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Caggiano, Mr. Edwards, Mr. Latham.
Mr. Orlowski: Opposed? Motion carries. (The hearing was closed at 6:08 p.m.)
What is the pleasure of the Board?
Mr. Edwards: Mr. Chairman, I'll offer the following resolution:
WHEREAS, Harry and/or Lorraine Broom are the owners of three parcels, SCTM #
1000-10-3-14, 15 & 25; and

Hearings Held Over From Previous Meetings:
Site Plans:
Mr. Orlowski: 6:15 p.m. - Cross Sound Ferry - This proposed new site plan is to
amend the June 6,1995 site plan for the Cross Sound Ferry Company Terminal. The
subject site encompasses three parcels located on the west and east sides of SR 25 at
its eastern-most terminus in Orient. SCTM#1000-15-9-10.1 and 11.1 and 15.1
This hearing is still held open. The applicant is working on a site plan and the Board is
working on the SEQRA. We have it open for public comment. We'd like to hear new
comments. We've heard a lot of comments at the last meeting. At this time, I'll open il:
up to whoever wants to make a comment. We, most likely, will be keeping this open
until ali of us get our work done. We have to finish our SEQRA document and the
applicant is working on a stamped site plan. Does anybody have any comment on this
site plan?
Richard Warren, Inter-Science Research Associates: I'm here on behalf of Cross
Sound. We had a fairly lengthy public hearing back on October 2nd and we're here again
tonight. Mr. Wronowski is here. We would ask the Board - we understand that you're in
the process of completing the SEQRA. We're in the process of doing the engineering
drawings which we've commissioned with John Raynor from Watermill. We ask the
Board if you would just suspend the hearing so that you don't just carry on meeting to
meeting, causing us to have to come to this meeting and wonder about what's going to
be said. At the public meeting there was an opportunity for the public to speak. The
property was noticed. We had notices in the paper. We understand that you might be
concerned that the public may want to have the opportunity to look at the engineering
drawings and say something about the engineering drawings. But the fact that we're
here and the fact that there's no one in the public that wishes to speak, I think it's
intelligent from the Planning Board's perspective - and certainly it's helpful from our
perspective - if you would suspend the hearing until such time as both the SEQRA is
completed, the engineering drawings are completed and filed and then continue with,
hopefully, one final hearing so that people would comment.
~t's going to take us some time to get the drawings done. We're in the process of doing
it. It's a complicated process for us to get them done. Whether we like it or not, it is. So
we ask that, in order to keep from burdening your agenda and making it difficult from
our side, that you would consider closing this hearing with an understanding that you
would re-open it at such time when those drawings would be received and reviewed.
Mr. Orlowski: How much time do you think you will need?

October 23, 2000
Mr. Warren: I'd like to think that they would be done in a month.
.Mr. Orlowski: O.K. The Board has that option to adjourn the hearing and not close the
hearing. We will not close the hearing until all of the documents are in. That will be up to
the Board.
Are there any other comments? (There were none.) O.K. Hearing none, i'm going to - I
don't want to make a motion to close it - I think a motion to adjourn would be proper
until all of the documents are in that everybody can review. We can open up this
hearing and meet again here in three weeks. We can put a resolution on to put the
hearing on for our next meeting after that. This way it would stop everybody from having
to come out without looking at anything, it's probably a good idea.
I'll entertain a motion from the Board to adjourn the hearing for Cross Sound Ferry.
Mr. Latham: So move.
.Mr. Edwards: Second the motion.
Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. All those in favor?
Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Caggiano, Mr. Edwards, Mr. Latham.
Mr. Orlowski: Opposed? Motion carries. (The hearing was adjourned at 6:22 p.m.)
There being no further business to come before the Board, the meeting was adjourned
at 6:23 p.m.
