The Hesses propose to reconfigure the composition of the 5.63 acre property by dividing it into two side by side lots — on the West (with the existing dwelling) and on the East (where a new dwelling can be constructed) with no construction in the presently open area facing the water. The Hesses propose a lot line change, the authority for which falls under the jurisdiction of the Planning Board of the Town of Southold. If the lot line change is approved, there will be two dwellings on two lots (each of approximately 124,000 square feet), and no change in density from the present. The proposed lot line change and house location maintains the park like character of the neighborhood and does not affect the water and other views of the neighbors. 0 FIDCO, the Hesses, and the Olmstead Plan FIDCO is anti-development. The Hesses are similarly anti-development. FIDCO and the Hesses, as owners of the property within FIDCO,have the same objective of protecting the park like environment designed by Olmstead in 1926. • FIDCO is contending however that"allowing the lot line change" will set a precedent which will result in multiple requests for other lot line changes. The Hesses believe that the owners of property subject to FIDCO covenants will not be protected simply by precedent; they will only be protected on a careful case-by-case review by FIDCO. FIDCO, in an attempt to support their anti-development position, has unfortunately grossly mischaracterized the Hesse proposal by: -incorrectly inferring that the proposed Hesse lot line change and building on the new lot as akin to the "rampant development' seen on Nantucket and similar seasonal places, -inaccurately referring to the Hesse proposal as a "quasi-cluster" development, -ignoring that the Hesses are proposing a lot line change and suggesting that the Hesses are proposing to build two houses on one lot—when this is not what has been proposed. • The proposed Hesse lot line change has nothing to do with development or cluster development—it is simply reconfiguring the 5.63 acre property so that one home can be constructed on each of two new lots in substitution of one home on each of the two existing lots. • The proposed lot line change most importantly is actually the best solution to protecting the Olmstead heritage in that the proposed change -does not affect water or other views of the neighbors, -preserves the broad open area and park like environment of the existing lot configuration, -does not create any additional housing density. • In consideration of the above facts,the Hesses ask the Planning Board to approve the proposed lot line change.

Planning Board Town of Southold Southold,New York Dear Anthony: In response to your question as to the formal guidelines under which the Fishers Island Development Corporation addresses building on Fishers Island,I am enclosing the following: (1) Renewal and Modification of FIDCO Covenants (dated July 23, 2004) (2) Declaration and Renewal and Extension of Covenants and Consent and Agreement(dated April 1,2005) (3)Design Review Guidelines (dated May 16,2005) As you will see,the Renewal and Modification of FIDCO Covenants document, which was signed by Mrs. Hesse and me, refers to the covenants that provide for "only single family residences and ancillary structures" and gives F DCO "broad powers to approve plans for the construction and alteration of all buildings and the landscaping of all premises".We are very supportive of the protection provided by these provisions and maintenance of the Olmstead environment. The Design Review Guidelines provide more details on construction plans and ancillary structures, but we did not see any reference to the right to approve lot line changes. Very truly ours IGS John esse FISHERS ISLAND DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION DRAWER E FISHERS.ISLAND, NY 06390 July 23, 2004 Renewal and Modification of FIDCO Covenants Dear Owner of Land in the Olmsted"Park": The creation and preservation of the "parklike atmosphere" of the east end of Fishers Island contemplated by the Olmsted Plan are dependent upon a set of restrictive covenants imposed upon lands in the "Park" lying east of the Gate in the deeds from FIDCO and its predecessors. These covenants originally ran for a term of 20 years from April 15, 1925, subject to renewal for successive terms of 20 years with the consent of owners of a majority in acreage of land in the Park. They were renewed in 1945 and 1965, modified and renewed in 1985, and will expire on April 15, 2005 unless they are renewed again. The first set of these covenants regulates development in the Park. They provide that only single family residences and ancillary structures may be built and give FIDCO broad powers to approve plans for the construction or alteration of all buildings and for the landscaping of all premises. These covenants have been administered in recent years by FIDCO's Architectural Review Committee. The Committee is in the process of codifying the standards and procedures for granting approval, which will be istn uted to all landowners once they are approved by FIDCO's Board of Directors. Even though the entire Island is now subject to the Southold zoning and building codes, it is critiml tn renew these covenants to nrntpCt the aesthetic quality of the Park. The renewal requires the consent of owners (including FIDC of a majority in acreage of all land in the Park. The second important set of covenants obligates landowners to pay annuW-maintenance charges dedicated to the maintenance, repair and improvement of roa s. 16rignally in 1925, there was a single charge of up to $25 per acre, which was renewed in 1945 and 1965. By 1985 this charge had become inadequate, and FIDCO became dependent on voluntary contributions to maintain the roads. As a result, the covenant was modified at the time of the 1985 renewal to provide for a basic charge of$25 per acre and a supplemental charge of up to $1,000, and FIDCO was authorized to establish separate charges for developed and undeveloped parcels. The modified covenant also provided that an owner of several parcels is obligated to pay a supplemental charge only with respect to one parcel, at the developed parcel rate, if any of such parcels is developed. Since 2001, FIDCO has been collecting the basic charge of$25 per acre for all lands and has fixed the supplemental charge at $800 for developed parcels and $450 for undeveloped parcels. In renewing the covenants, it is obviously prudent to attempt to 2LQxidaJQLthe impact of inflation over the ears—the $25 figure for the basic charge was set in 1925. In addition, the mam road as not been repaved since 1972. Its appearance and condition is a problem that must be addressed within the next few years. FIDCO has increased the sticker fees for the use of the roads several times in recent years. This has been helpful but falls far short of what is required for repaving the main road. Accordingly, the FIDCO Board has concluded that in order to carry out its obligation to maintain the roads in an attractive and sound state, it must increase the ceiling for the basic maintenance charge from $25 to $100 per acre and the ceiling for the supplemental charge from $1,000 to $2,000 (the one- supp emental-c arge-per-owner rule would stay in place). The maintenance charge may only be used for the roads (and refuse disposal service, if FIDCO should ever elect to provide it). Since1985 FIDCO has always set the supplemental maintenance charge at the lowest possible level and will continue to exercise this restraint, although the financing of the repaving of the main road will clearly require charges in excess of the current levels to be made in the near future. The proposed mod ' ten at e covenant will re uire the consent of the owners (Motger thanFIDCO) of a majority in acreage of all land in the Park. There is some ambiguity in the language of the covenant as revised in 1985 as to whether the $1,000 ceiling on supplemental charges is to be applied on a per-acre or a per-parcel basis. However, FIDCO has always administered the charge on a per-parcel basis, and the proposed modification of thwould clarify that the supplemental charge is to be assessed on that basis. T e proposed modification would also restore language contained Sin t a maintenance charge covenant since 1925 that was inadvertently dropped in the 1985 modification, permitting future increases in the annual charges, like renewals of all the covenants, to be made with the consent of the owners of a majority in acreage of all land in the Park, including FIDCO. The renewal and modification of the covenants are to be implemented by means of two Declarations, copies of which are enclosed. The first Declaration will renew all the covenants until 2025, and the second will amend the maintenance charge covenant as described above, in each case upon receipt of the consent of the requisite majority of landowners. (In reviewing the Declarations, you can skip over the "WHEREAS" clauses, which are largely historical recitals, and focus on the operative provisions following "NOW, THEREFORE"). As provided in the deeds and indentures going back to 1925,the covenants,as so renewed and modified,will"run with the land" and be binding on all owners of lands in the Park, including those who did or do not consent to a renewal or modification, and all future owners of such lands. Enclosed is a form of Consent and Agreement, which will evidence the consent of owners of lands in the Park to the Declarations renewing and modifying the covenants. This form has been completed with your name as it appears in the Suffolk County records, together with the Suffolk County tax lot description and the FIDCO map lot designation of your land. Please sign your name(s) exactly as it appears on the form (or if your property is registered in the name of a trust, partnership or corporation, please arrange for the signature by the appropriate trustee or officer) and return an executed copy of the Consent to FIDCO in the enclosed envelope. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter, which is of such vital importance to the continuance of the quality of life in the Park envisioned by Frederick Law Olmsted when he laid it out eighty years ago. It is important to collect the necessary executed consents of landowners before everyone disperses at the end of the summer. If you have any questions about this procedure, please call David Strupp(788-7155) or Barry Bryan(788-7166). Sincerely, rank Burr, Chairman Peter O.

Burr, Chairman FIDCO Directors Peter O. Crisp, President FIDCO Robert W.Anthony James W.B.Benkard Barry R.Bryan Re: Design Review Guidelines 5/16/05 James H.Camey Thomas W.Cashel Reynolds duPont,Jr. For the past 12 months, a Sub-Committee of the FIDCO Board, led by David Mark Gaumond Strupp-and Kathy Parsons have labored to update and strengthen—while being Chauncey Goss Rose Harvey practical and realistic—the Design Guidelines for new construction and Henry L.King alterations or changes to existing structures, including landscaping, east of"The L.Peter Lawrence Gate." Frank R Lyon Henry F.McCance Leslie L.McElwreath As noted in the attached document our objective "is to encourage outstanding Robert J.Miller individually designed environments that are in harmony with the original Kathryn M.Parsons B.Scott Reid (Olmsted Brothers— 1926)plan for the Island." W.C.Ridgway III Katherine Sanger The FIDCO Board has unanimous) adopted these guidelines as consistent with Melie T.Spofford Y P David J. Strupp the covenants in the deeds which provide that plans to accomplish the foregoing Charles T.Wilmerding activities by owners shall be approved by FIDCO. The guidelines will be General Manager enforced by the Architectural Review Committee—consisting of. Chippy duPont Robert E.Wall (Chairman),Barry Bryan,Jim Carney and Kathy Parsons. This committee will be Aided in its deliberations—when called on—by the Property Committee consisting of: Bill Ridgway (Chairman), Tom Cashel, Bob Miller,Kandi Sanger, Jim Reid and Melie Spofford. Your comments and suggestions are always welcome. Our objective is to maintain the character of the Island in the years ahead. We sincerely hope you share these sentiments and support FIDCO in this initiative. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES In 1926,the renowned landscape architects,Olmsted Brothers,created a plan for the east end of Fishers Island. Their vision,which time has not changed,was to create a community of home sites in a park-like atmosphere where houses are unobtrusive and compliment the stunning natural beauty of the Island, which 80 years later remains one of the most rare and special places on the Eastern seaboard if not anywhere in America. All property on the eastern end of Fishers Island is subject to a covenant which reads as follows: `That no building or other stricture shall be created on the aforesaid premises,no alterations shall be made in the exterior of any building or other structure erected thereon,and nothing else shall be done materially affecting the appearance of the aforesaid premises except according to plans(including exterior color scheme,grading plan, planting plan,and location plan)which shall have been approved in writing by the grantor,its successors or assigns.' Fishers Island Development Corporation("FIDCO"),as the successor,has the responsibility to provide the stewardship to insure that the original vision is preserved so that the natural beauty of the Island will be maintained and new construction will not be incongruous with that vision. The guidelines set forth below are in significant part a codification of the principles that have governed the approval process to date.Adherence to the original plan must be approached not only as an opportunity but an obligation so that this special place,cherished by those that have preceded us,will continue. The FIDCO Board has established an architectural review committee(the"Committee") which has been charged with the responsibility to review all applications and design documents for all new constriction and alterations or changes to existing structures,including landscaping. For that purpose,the FIDCO Board has adopted these guidelines to assist you and your design professionals in the development of your home project,whether it is a new construction or changes or additions to an existing structure. The intention of this document is to encourage outstanding individually designed environments that are in harmony with the original plan for the Island. DESIGN REVIEW PROCEDURES The following is an outline of the procedures for the review of your project,whether it is a new construction,an alteration or an addition. As a prelude to the review process,an orientation meeting and site visit will be conducted with a member or members of the Committee before the design process begins. This meeting gives the property owners and their design professionals the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the site and to ask questions about the guidelines and the review process. The review process following the orientation meeting will be conducted as follows: STEP ONE: INITIAL REVIEW The owner must submit to the Committee preliminary plans(six(6)sets)consisting of the following: I Preliminary site plan. 2. Preliminary floor plans. (While floor plans are required to be provided,it is to be understood that the Committee has no approval rights with respect to the layout or any architectural feature of the interior of any improvement.) 3. Preliminary exterior elevations(allsides). — The Committee will review the documents within thirty(30)days and return one set of the plans to the owner,with the comments of the Committee noted thereon. STEP TWO:MAJOR REVIEW The owner must submit to the Committee the final construction plans for all improvements proposed to be constructed(six(6)sets),material samples and color chips, together with preliminary conceptual plans for the landscaping of the site,as follows: 1. Final site plan. The site should be staked to show the location of all improvements and a ridge pole should be erected to show the highest roof elevation. 2. Final floor plans. 3. Final exterior elevations,including materials specified and color chips. 4. Roof structure,material and colors. 5. Conceptual landscape plan. 6. Exterior doors and garage doors. 7. Patios,decks,balconies,porches,tennis or paddle courts,swimming pools and all other detached structures or other improvements,should be located on the final site plan. The Committee will review all design documents and return one set of the documents to the owner within thirty(30)days,with the comments of the Committee noted thereon. It should be noted that throughout these guidelines time periods for responses from the Committee have been specified. While every effort will be made to adhere to these time periods, it must be understood that this may not be possible in every instance and that failure of the Committee to respond within the designated period of time will not be considered approval or abandonment of the review and approval process. STEP THREE: SUBMISSION OF PLANS TO SOUTHOLD AUTHORITIES Following Major Review,the owner and builder may submit the approved plans to the Building Department of the Town of Southold and such other governmental agencies having jurisdiction for all required permits. The owner shall advise the Committee in writing of any request proposed to be made to the Town of Southold or any other governmental authority for a variance or waiver of any law,regulation or ordinance,which written advice should be accompanied by six(6)sets of the request,including all exhibits thereto. Any variance or waiver shall also require the approval of the Committee,notwithstanding that the variance or waiver may be granted by the Town of Southold and all other governmental authorities. For this reason,we strongly recommend that any request be submitted first to the Committee prior to submission to the Town of Southold or other governmental authority. STEP FOUR: CONSTRUCTION COMMENCEMENT Upon receipt of Major Review approval,including approval of the conceptual landscaping plans,and approval by all required governmental authorities,construction can commence. Committee approval is personal to the owner who has submitted the application and will remain effective as to that owner applicant only if construction is commenced within six(6) months of the granting of approval and construction is diligently pursued thereafter to assure completion within a period of 30 months. The six-and 30-month periods may be extended by the Committee if the delay is the result of the failure of the required governmental permits to be issued in a timely manner. STEP FIVE:FINAL REVIEW The owner must submit to the Committee two sets of the final landscape plans six(6) months after commencement of construction. The Committee will review the landscape plans and return one set of the plans,with the comments of the Committee noted thereon,to the owner within 30 days. DESIGN DOCUMENT CHANGES The owner must obtain the approval of the Committee prior to making any changes to the approved plans that would be visible from the exterior or would otherwise have an impact on any aspect of any approved feature of the improvement. Any major deviations may require full architectural review by the Committee prior to commencement of the changes. PERIODIC AND FINAL INSPECTIONS The Committee reserves the right to inspect construction in progress and upon completion to determine conformance with the approved plans. Neither FIDCO,its directors and officers nor members of the Committee assumes any responsibility whatsoever to any applicant,property owner or third party for the structural integrity or adequacy of the improvements proposed,soil conditions,environmental compliance or compliance with any or all zoning or building codes,safety requirements,or other governmental laws,regulations or ordinances or the performance,quality or workmanship of any contractor. It must be understood that approval by the Committee does not signify that the proposed construction will satisfy the requirements of the Town of Southold for the issuance of a building permit,which is an entirely discrete process. KEY DESIGN GUIDELINES The following list summarizes those architectural elements which the Committee requires, recommends and/or encourages: 1. To the maximum extent possible,the natural character of the site should be preserved and all structures should be unobtrusive and blend in with the terrain and not intrude unduly on neighbors'views. --- - ---- -- --- — – 2. Certified,licensed and insured professionals,qualified in the fields of planning, architecture,landscape,engineering and surveying should be engaged to perform the necessary work. 3 The aesthetics of exterior architecture and landscape architecture should be emphasized. 4. Bright colors(other than white)are discouraged as the dominant exterior color. All exterior colors must be approved by the Committee. 5. Large satellite dishes and solar panels are discouraged and must be approved by the Committee. 6. Guest houses and pool houses are permitted, subject to compliance will all governmental laws,regulation and ordinances. 7. Energy conservation is encouraged,as is environmental sensitivity. DESIGN STANDARDS AND CRITERIA 1. No foundation for any improvement shall be poured,nor shall construction commence in any manner or respect,until the layout for the improvement has been approved by the Committee. The purpose of this requirement is to assure that no trees are unnecessarily disturbed and that all improvements are placed on the property in their most sensitive location. 2. Each architectural design shall be considered on an individual basis with specific emphasis on impact and harmony with surrounding homes and styles. Structures which are of a scale inconsistent with neighboring properties will be discouraged. 3. Setbacks on all lots are subject to approval by the Committee on a case by case basis, notwithstanding that the setbacks may be in compliance with the laws and requirements of the Town of Southold. 4. Exterior artificial, simulated or imitation materials are discouraged. 5. The use of wood(shingles,clapboards or other wood siding), masonry, stone,brick or stucco is appropriate as an exterior material.Aluminum or vinyl siding is not encouraged. 6. The Committee has final approval of all exterior color plans. This includes the roof, exterior walls, shutters,trim,etc. 7. where the site permits,all homes encouraged to have a minimum of a one-car garage, with garage doors which do not front on the road. Carports are not permitted. 8. All exterior lighting(including landscape lighting)shall be detailed on the final plans. No exterior lighting shall be permitted which,in the opinion of the Committee,would create a nuisance to the adjoining property owners. 9. All garbage and trash containers and exterior utility equipment shall be placed in an enclosed or landscaped area. 10. Above ground swimming pools are not permitted. 11. Mobile homes and recreational vehicles are not permitted 12. Boats should not be stored outside on any property if visible from any road or a neighbor's property.

All construction sites must be maintained in a neat and orderly fashion. The owner must require of all contractors that all personnel working on the site keep the job site free of discarded materials such as lunch bags,bottles and cans. On the way to and from the site no objects should be thrown out of cars or trucks or be left in the beds of trucks where they may inadvertently blow out of the vehicle. Contractors are required to provide at least one trash container for every consnvction project,which should be emptied on a regular basis. Contractors are responsible for retrieving trash that blows off the site. No stockpiling or dumping on adjacent property is allowed Construction site fires are not allowed without the issuance of a permit from the local Fire Department.

HESSE Home Seasonal 16 Davis Brook Drive Box 591 Natick,Ma. 01760 Fishers Island News Planning Board Town of Southold Southold,N. Y. 11971 �l�h - X006 Dear Members: W Sou•.'^�;getrd f We are requesting the Planning Board to grant us lot ine ch o contiguous 6 building lots,comprising our 5.63 acre property or Fis erS Island. For sirigtlicity-+++e r refer to the two lots as the"Upper Lot"(#26-8 w1 comae ?._._ u ern portion of the total property)and the "Lower Lot"(#26-9 which is on the northern portion of the total property). Within the exterior boundaries of the 5.63 acres,we are proposing that the property be reconfigured in a manner that will preclude future building on the Lower. Lot. Instead it divides the total property into two lots, one containing our existing dwelling and the other being the New Lot on which we propose to construct a smaller dwelling. Our proposal is based upon the Olmstead National Historical Association's interpretation of Olmstead's plans,under which Ohnstead's concept of parks reflect..."with gentle, curving avenues with natural landscaping...around a chain of linear parks". Our proposed change in the lot lines preserves the park like linear setting of the present Lower Lot and provides continuous naturalistic landscaping on the New Let. The smaller house on the New Lot will virtually be unseen from the road as a result of our landscaping plan designed by an Olmstead trained architect.It does not change any of the exterior bounds of the total property,conforms to all zoning regulations, protects the water views of the properties that could otherwise be adversely be affected were there to be a dwelling erected on the Lower Lot,and preserves the environment and bird habitat, The Architectural Review Committee of the Fishers Island Development Corporation ("FIDCO")is seeking to preclude us from securing the proposed lot line change, suggesting that the change is contrary to the intent of the original 1926 Olmstead Brothers plan and that they are protecting the Olmstead Plan. Although the FIDCO Committee and we share the same objectives of protecting the entire area from unattractive or excessive development,we believe that the FIDCO Committee is misguided and shortsighted in their opposition to the proposed lot line change. In fact, while they may be well intentioned,their opposition potentially damages the intention of the Olmstead Plan in that: (1)it leaves open the possibility of building on the Lower Lot, which if it did take place would ruin the views of most of our neighbors, and (2)it could destroy the park-like setting if building occurred on the Lower Lot. Furthermore we rue quite surprised that the Committee failed to recognize the fragility of the Lower Lot from Z 'd 669L 02L TOL OSIAOH ddOO N3amus swimds wdso � T S002 SC F1f1C 0 0 an environment perspective and a bird habitat.While there are sites on the Lower Lot that would support a dwelling location and be removed from the wetlands,this would-tot be an environmentally sensitive and desirable alternative. In this respect,with the lot line change for both of the new lots,we will have restrictions in the deeds that preclude building structures on what had been the Lower Lot. We view this as an improvement in protection above existing zoning restrictions. We are also extremely disappointed in the Committee's inaccurate, if not misleading statements, about the proposed lot line change in their June 23 letter,for example: -erroneously inferring that the Hesses are attempting to build more,than one residence on each lot, when they know we are requesting a lot line change that results in one residence on each conforming lot -indirectly characterizing the Hesse plan as part of"rampant development"tshen in fact the Hesse proposal has little, if anything, to do with development -suggesting that the Hesses are increasing the number of buildable lots when th v again know that this is not true. We do not believe that these misstatements have a place it..the objective deliberations of the Planning Board. The flawed conclusion by FIDCO is furthermore corroborated by conversations with the FIDCO Committee where it has suggested that we actually consider building on a comer of the Lower Lot, or alternatively with a lot line change move the site of the new dwelling forward—which would impinge on the views of our neighbors. Failing this they have inferred that we could donate the Lower Lot to the Fishers Island Museum which would place the land into conservation.Unfortunately these suggestions infringe on our right to maintain the benefits of being able to have a dwelling on each of two sites,while at the same time offering the community the best environmental solution and protection of their property views and values. We are regretful that this issue is consuming so much time for the Planning Board and those of us who are affected. We are hopeful that we will ultimately be able to work through the issues with the FIDCO Committee so that they will be able to embrace our proposal which we believe is the best solution to preserving the environment and adhering to the Olmstead objectives. In the meanwhile,we respectfully request the Planning Board to reject the position of the FIDCO Architectural Committee and approve our proposed lot line c e. you for your though Wiew nd Fe ' oration. on.

Wk.— We understand that the ordinance does not require a public hearing and the Board does not ordinarily call a public hearing on lot line changes such as this. We believe, however, that it would be helpful to the Board's understanding of FIDCO's position on the issues raised by the Hesse application and FIDCO's concerns about to precedent that would be sot by approval of the Hesse application to have a public hearing in this case. As spelled out in our earlier letters, our basic concerns--preservation of the Olmsted Plan and the parklike atmosphere it is designed to foster--are broader than the particulars of the Hesse proposal. But for whatever weight it adds to our position in the Hesse case or our standing to request a public hearing,we would note that FIDCO is the owner of the lot abutting Lot 26-9 to the cast. In it its capacity as an abutting neighbor (as well as its capacity as steward of to Olmsted Plan),FIDCO would prefer that any new residence be built on the existing Lot 26-9, rather than on the proposed newly configured lot. In any case, FD)CO is charged with monitoring to FIDCO covenams and with stewardship of the Olmsted Plan, and it is FIDCO that is to designated arbiter of what best protects the parklike atmosphere of the East End. In carrying out this mission,we believe that.F1DC0 faithfully reflects the Overwhelming consensus of the East End Community. �RCt9 :Piratels Co�� Marine Ito FRX N0. :631-786-7873 .Tun. 05 2006 'i0:12AM P3 Thank you fcar your consideration of our comments and this request for a public hearing.

Woodhouse, Chair Hesse Lot Line Modification Ladies and Gentlemen: This will supplement our letter of May 10, 2006, providing the general background on FIDCO's posi- tion on changes in the boundary lines of Olmsted Lots on the East End of Fishers Island and commenting specifically on the proposed Boocock and Ireland lot line changes. A copy of our letter is enclosed for your convenience. Set forth below are our comments on the application of John R. and Katha A. Hesse for modifi- cation of the lot lines of Olmsted Lots 26-8 and 26-9 (1000-3-5-2.1). The Hesse properties consist of two Olmsted Lots divided by an east-west boundary, Lot 26-8 of 104,000 sq. ft. to the south, containing the existing Hesse residence, and Lot 26-9 of 141,000 sq. ft. to the north, undeveloped. Changing the boundary line from east-west to north-south would create two conforming lots, over 120,000 sq. ft. each, It would not change the number of buildable lots, nor would it increase the potential development population density of the Hesse properties. However, we believe that the change would be inconsistent with the FIDCO covenants and impair the parklike atmosphere of the Olmsted Park in at least two important ways. The siting of the proposed new resi- dence on the southerly Olmsted Lot 26-8 next to the existing Hesse residence would violate the letter and the spirit of the FIDCO covenant prohibiting the construction of more than one residence on an Olmsted Lot. In addition, the 300-foot frontage of Lot 26-8 would be divided in half, creating two lots with 150-foot frontage, and the new dwelling would be built in a row with the existing Hesse residence and the houses to the east and west. Although the mathematical density of the neighborhood would not be changed, its visual density would be changed from Olmsted's Park to something more like a suburban development. We enclose an aerial photo- graph provided by the Hesse's, showing the proposed site of the new dwelling as Position A. This photo demonstrates graphically how the lot line modification would result in the construction of two residences on Olmsted Lot 26-8 and in four houses standing relatively close to one another in a line along the road. FIDCO is`adso concerned that approval of the Hesse lot line change would set a precedent that could lead to the further erosion of the Olmsted Plan. In its role as steward of the Olmsted Plan, FIDCO sees the Plan and its supporting covenants as the principal defense of the East End of Fishers Island against the kind of rampant development that has afflicted Block Island, Nantucket and much of eastern Long Island. FIDCO feels that it must protect the sanctity of the Olmsted Plan in order to resist the economic pressures for such development, and specifically must oppose any Olmsted Lot line changes that would increase or enhance buildable lots at the expense of OWd's Park atmosphere. • For the above reasons, FIDCO respectfully requests the Planning Board to deny the Hesse application for lot line modification. In closing, we would point out that the Hesse's have a viable alternative to changing their Olmsted Lot lines and siting their new dwelling in Position A on the enclosed photo. They could build the new dwelling in Position B on the undeveloped Olmsted Lot 26-9. This site is some 30 feet lower and would not have the com- manding views of Position A, but it would still enjoy a very good view of Fishers Island Sound, and because of the lower elevation a house built there would not intrude materially on the views of the existing Hesse house or any of the neighboring houses, even without landscaping. Thus, the Hesse proposal does not appear to be a hardship case—although we hasten to note that FIDCO does not believe that hardship, even hardship resulting from changes in environmental or other regulations after the adoption of the Olmsted Plan, is a reason to approve Olmsted Lot line changes that would violate the covenants or impair the parklike atmosphere of the Olmsted Park. Once again, we thank the Board for this opportunity to provide our comments, and we would be pleased to furnish any additional information that might be helpful to you.

Drawer E Fishers Island,NY 06390 May 10, 2006 Town of Southold Planning Board P.O. Box 1179 Southold,NY 11971 Attention: Jerilyn B. Woodhouse, Chair Boocock Ireland and Hesse Lot Line Modifications Ladies and Gentlemen: Thank you for your March 15, 2006 Memorandum, requesting FIDCO's comments on the applications for Lot Line Modifications filed by Glenn W. Boocock (1000-4-7-1&2), George and Elisabeth W. Ireland (1000-4-7-3.1)and John R. and Katha A. Hesse (1000-3-5-2.1). Since the Board's current procedures do not normally call for a public hearing on lot line changes,we are less likely to hear about a proposed change on the East End of Fishers Island and are particularly grateful to receive notifications such as this one. As you know, in 1926 FIDCO's predecessor, the developer of the East End of Fishers Island, engaged the renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted (who designed New York City's Central Park, among other notable projects)to plan its development. Olmsted's Plan,creating a residential "Park"with recreational amenities, was ultimately filed with the Town as a sort of subdivision for the East End. The Olmsted Plan has had the effect of grandfathering the lots laid out in the Plan(which average about two acres in size) under the Town's Zoning Code(which now classifies the East End as an R-120 three-acre residential zone). Over the years, FIDCO and its predecessors have imposed covenants on all Lots sold for development in the"Park". These covenants, which were recently extended for a twenty-year period through 2025, restrict development to one single-family residence and necessary outbuildings on each Lot, and grant to FIDCO the power to approve all plans for the construction,alteration, siting and landscaping of all structures. The covenants were designed, in Olmsted's words,to preserve"the parklike atmosphere" of the Olmsted Park. FIDCO's mandate,thus, is to monitor these covenants to preserve the parklike atmosphere envisioned by Olmsted. In order to carry out this mandate, and in addition to protect the Island's infrastructure(ferry,roads, water, electricity) from being overrun,the announced policy of FIDCO for at least the last two decades has been to restrain development on the East End. It has decided to refrain from selling for development any of the remaining lands which it holds. Instead, it has contributed lands to the Land Trust managed by the H.L. Ferguson Museum and has encouraged other landowners to donate lands or conservation easements to the Land Trust. While the FIDCO covenants may not give FIDCO legal standing to appear before the Planning Board in lot line modification proceedings, FIDCO has always taken the position that the covenants give it the independent right to approve lot line changes that alter the Olmsted Plan, and to object to any change that is inconsistent with the covenants or threatens the parklike atmosphere of the Olmsted Park. In the most general terms, under its policy of restraining development, FIDCO would look with favor on a lot line change that reduced the number of building sites,and would object to a change that increased the number of building sites. Turning to the three proposed lot line modifications, Boocock Modification The Boocock change would divide an undeveloped and presently buildable (conforming) lot into two parts; consolidate one part with the adjacent developed (nonconforming) lot; and set up the other part for contribution to the Land Trust. The effect is thus to reduce the number of buildable lots from two(one conforming,one nonconforming)to one conforming lot and to dedicate some two acres as open spaces. This change would clearly enhance the parklike atmosphere of the Chocamount Beach area and further FIDCO's open space policies, and we enthusiastically support it. Ireland Modification The proposed change would rationalize the two adjacent buildable lots owned by the Irelands; convert the nonconforming developed lot into a conforming lot; give it direct access to the beach instead of an easement over the second lot; and extend it to include the existing driveway easement over the second lot. It would have no effect on the number or character of buildable lots, and FIDCO has no objection to it. Hesse Modification The Hesse application raises certain difficult issues for FIDCO. We will provide our comments as soon as we have resolved them. 0 Again, we thank the Board for this opportunity to provide our comments. and we would be pleased to furnish any additional information that might be helpful to you.

No. 1000-003.o0-05.00-002.001) Dear Board Members: I understand that the referenced application Is on your agenda for tonight's work session. I am writing to request that you put the matter on your calendar for conditional final approval without a public hearing at your meeting on June 12. We believe the lot line change proposed bythe Hessesshould be approved because it offers two distinct advantages over the building sites that would be- available if the current lot configurations are maintained. First, the Hesse proposal would better serve the parklike environment of the East End of Fishers Island by preserving a larger contiguous area of open space. This proposal is similar to a cluster subdivision that requires smallerhomesitesfor the purpose of preserving a large tract of land. While there will be two residences on the land that now comprises FIDCO Lot 26-8, the land that now comprises FIDCO Lot 26 - 9, more than 140,000 square feet, will remain as open space. Second,as indicated on the map submitted with the application,existing Lot 26 - 9 contains a wetland area in its easterly portion. Existence of the wetland would necessitate construction in the westerly portion of the property where views of neighboring property owners would be adversely affected. The proposed new house location on existing Lot 26 - 8 would be well away (at least 200 feet) from the wetlands. Engineer/Land Surveyor Richard H. Strouse, who has performed work on Fishers Island i15 22%.'64d 11:15 PdS i�91 267 1076r[MATTHEWS XHAM X1009 Planning Board Page 2 May 22, 2006 for more than thirty years, has confirmed to the Hesses and to me that the proposed new dwelling location would have much less of an impact on neighboring property owners than would a residence on existing Lot 26 - 9. In summary, the Hesse proposal is a better plan for the neighborhood than the plan that would unfold if development were to proceed with the existing lot configurations. Open space and views are better preserved and environmental concerns are addressed with less impact on neighboring property owners. As an added benefit, both newly configured lots will be conforming as to lot area whereas only Lot 28-9 is now so conforming. Thank you for your consideration of these issues and my request for action at your June 12 meeting. Sincerely, 'Z4" 4'. Stephen L. Ham, III E_ TMAY 1 9 2006 ! Southold Town a Planni Board fiSIERS ISLAND DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION P.O. Drawer E Fishers Island,NY 06390 May 10, 2006 Town of Southold Planning Board P.O. Box 1179 Southold, NY 11971 Attention: Jerilyn B. Woodhouse, Chair Boocock, Ireland andfil�.ot Line Modifications Ladies and Gentlemen: Thank you for your March 15, 2006 Memorandum, requesting FIDCO's comments on the applications for Lot Line Modifications filed by Glenn W. Boocock (1000-4-7-1&2), George and Elisabeth W. Ireland (1000-4-7-3.1) and John R. and Katha A. Hesse (1000-3-5-2.1). Since the Board's current procedures do not normally call for a public hearing on lot line changes, we are less likely to hear about a proposed change on the East End of Fishers Island and are particularly grateful to receive notifications such as this one. As you know, in 1926 FIDCO's predecessor, the developer of the East End of Fishers Island, engaged the renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted(who designed New York City's Central Park, among other notable projects) to plan its development. Olmsted's Plan, creating a residential "Park" with recreational amenities, was ultimately filed with the Town as a sort of subdivision for the East End. The Olmsted Plan has had the effect of grandfathering the lots laid out in the Plan (which average about two acres in size)under the Town's Zoning Code (which now classifies the East End as an R-120 three-acre residential zone). Over the years,FIDCO and its predecessors have imposed covenants on all Lots sold for development in the "Park". These covenants,which were recently extended for a twenty-year period through 2025, restrict development to one single-family residence and necessary outbuildings on each Lot, and grant to FIDCO the power to approve all plans for the construction, alteration, siting and landscaping of all structures. The covenants were designed,in Olmsted's words, to preserve"the parklike atmosphere" of the Olmsted Park. FIDCO's mandate, thus, is to monitor these covenants to preserve the parklike atmosphere envisioned by Olmsted. In order to carry out this mandate, and in addition to protect the Island's infrastructure (ferry,roads, water, electricity) from being overrun, the announced policy of FIDCO for at least the last two decades has been to restrain development on the East End. It has decided to refrain from selling for development any of the remaining lands which it holds. Instead, it has contributed lands to the Land Trust managed by the H.L. Ferguson Museum and has encouraged other landowners to donate lands or conservation easements to the Land Trust. While the FIDCO covenants may not give FIDCO legal standing to appear before the Planning Board in lot line modification proceedings, FIDCO has always taken the position that the covenants give it the independent right to approve lot line changes that alter the Olmsted Plan, and to object to any change that is inconsistent with the covenants or threatens the parklike atmosphere of the Olmsted Park. In the most general terms, under its policy of restraining development, FIDCO would look with favor on a lot line change that reduced the number of building sites, and would object to a change that increased the number of building sites. Turning to the three proposed lot line modifications, Boocock Modification The Boocock change would divide an undeveloped and presently buildable (conforming) lot into two parts; consolidate one part with the adjacent developed (nonconforming) lot; and set up the other part for contribution to the Land Trust. The effect is thus to reduce the number of buildable lots from two (one conforming, one nonconforming)to one conforming lot and to dedicate some two acres as open spaces. This change would clearly enhance the parklike atmosphere of the Chocamount Beach area and further FIDCO's open space policies, and we enthusiastically support it. Ireland Modification The proposed change would rationalize the two adjacent buildable lots owned by the Irelands; convert the nonconforming developed lot into a conforming lot; give it direct access to the beach instead of an easement over the second lot; and extend it to include the existing driveway easement over the second lot. It would have no effect on the number or character of buildable lots, and FIDCO has no objection to it. Hesse Modification The Hesse application raises certain difficult issues for FIDCO. We will provide our comments as soon as we have resolved them. • Again,we thank the Board for this opportunity to provide our comments, and we would be pleased to furnish any additional information that might be helpful to you.
