6. Request from Fishers Island Electric Corp. to be considered
in any of the new lighting programs that we have going on in the Town
in upgrading their lighting district over there.
7. We had people from the State and County here today to address
the Board on their willingness to help the Town write emer~en~y plnns
on any disasters that might affect the Town of Southold. They will
come out with their people who are well versed in these things and
sit down with the Town, department heads and Town Board and try to
come up with a plan. They are doing this throughout the state. The
cost to the Town will be the cost of printing the booklet when it is
done and the people's time involved, such as mine and Councilmen and
department heads. The agency is the New York State Disaster
Preparedness Commission.
8. Letter from William Terry commending the Board on acting
and support their efforts in trying to get the clamming under some
sort of regulations. The new permit system that was recommended
to the Town Board by the Town Trustees.
9. Letter from Gregory Blass in reference to the centralization
of the courts from Riverhead to Hauppauge. He asks our support. We
already have passed a resolution on this to keep them where they are.
A copy of this resolution will be sent to him again, and to Dr.
Koppelman where he requested it be sent.
10. Request from the Cutchogue Free Library to be considered
in the Community Block Grant in 1982-83. We did consider them.
IV. HEARINGS - There will be two hearings beginning at 3:30.
V. RESOLUTIONS
SUPERVISOR PELL: We have 39 resolutions. We will try to get through
a few of them as we go along. Number 1 is the way the Board discussed
they would like to s.ee the Community Block money spent for 82-83. The
Town is to receive a total of $243,200.00. When the Councilmen reached
this agreement, including myself, it was through give and take. We
all had our projects we would like to see go forth with priority. It
was not a nice meeting we had with this. We had rather heated words
perhaps at times. I know .Joe felt very strongly about CAST. I felt
strongly about the oil tanks. Somebody else felt strongly about the
drainage. Somebody else felt strongly about landfill. We put numbers
back and forth, up and down and all six of us sitting up here had to
make sacrifices. As in any way, the majority always rules. This is
no exception. The way the money will be earmarked to be sent is set
forth in the following resolution.
1.
Moved by Supervisor Pell, seconded by Councilman Murphy,
WHEREAS, in July 1982 the Town of Southold expects to receive
approximately $243,200.00 in Federal Community Development Block
Grant Funds, and
WHEREAS, these funds may be used, and have previously been used
for a variety or projects to be selected by local officials, and
WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Southold held a public hearing
at 7:30 P.M., March 9, 1982 at the Southold Town Hall, at which time
Town residents were invited to express their views o~ local needs to
be met with these funds, now, therefore; be it
RESOLVED that the following projects have been selected to be
undertaken with the Federal Community Development Block Grant Funds:
~75,000.00 - Housing rehabilitation - Seventh, Eighth,
Ninth Streets, Greenport, and houses adjacent

$50,000.00 - Capping Landfill

$ 5,000.00 _ Reconstruction fund - North Fork Community Theatre
$33,200.00 - Adminstrative Costs.
SUPERVISOR PELL: As I s aid before there are some items on here
that were crossed off as we went over them, such as the Mattituck
oil tanks, such as CAST in Greenport, 'such as the Nutrition Program
in Greenport and a few others. But as I said, the Board did spend
a lot of time on this and I know we are going to have a lot of
unhappy people on this but it is the decision of the Board and this
is the way it stands. Any discussion from any Board members?
