In developing our Plan, we have tried to be true to these assumptions. 1. F.I. must have a healthy year-round population. It must be self sufficient in providing all necessary year-round service functions, e.g., school, fire department, groceries, EMS, medical, etc., and also be able to expand those services to meet the needs of the summer population. To meet these requirements, F.I. needs more people than currently live on the Island year round, and these residents must include managers as well as laborers, young people as well as seniors, families with children and without, etc. 2. Efforts must be made to slow the growth of the summer population. All citizens and organizations should bear this goal in mind when making decisions which influence growth. At the same time, it would be desirable to have year-round residents purchase homes that come on the market. 3. The Island should remain a residential community, and tourism should be discouraged. (Commercial activities on Fishers Island should continue to exclusively focus their operations on serving the residential population.> 4. The natural environment must be unequivocally protected. The uniqueness and fragility of our ocean, harbors, wetlands and water supply must be respected. To that end, Fishers Islanders both year-round and part-time must be made aware of the need for environmental protection. 5. The Fishers Island school is a major asset and should be strengthened through enhanced programs and a larger student body. The character of the Island's society would be changed to everyone's detriment without the school. 6. For the foreseeable future, our Island's official governance will remain the same, i.e., we will continue to be a hamlet within the Town of Southold. This means we will need to work closely with the Town Board to obtain special legislation when necessary and to see that the Board understands that Fishers Island's priorities are frequently different from those of the rest of Southold. It is the responsibility of the F.I. representative on the Town Board to ensure that Fishers Island's uniqueness and best Interest are clearly communicated to the other Board members. He should seek representation on such other Town boards and committees which are important to the welfare of the Island. In addition, we should explore special vehicles which might enhance local control. 7. To protect and enhance Fishers Island, all people and organizations must be made aware of their interdependency, so that they will be encouraged to work for the common good, even when some Individual sacrifice might be necessary. 8. All Fishers Islanders should generously support the programs of the Island Museum and similar organizations which use private initiatives and land protection strategies to preserve the remaining open space on Fishers Island. ~":" /.07& --.-.---,-------...----.".-... ._-- ., L't.......,..... l~~,N61 /'//'Yg ,I#',,#- ~ c:::-......
