VI. Resolutions
1. Statement
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Welcome to the October 3, 2006 meeting of the Southold Town
Board. Please rise and join with me in the Pledge of Allegiance. Would anybody like to address
the Town Board on any of the items that appears on the agenda this evening? Mrs. Egan. Oh,
Tom wants to go first?
JOAN EGAN: Joan Egan, East Marion. Am I coming across? Good. Now, we have, I thought
you said you might have Mr. Harris here tonight. I am talking about 771 on the Highway
Department, you thought you might have Mr. Harris here tonight. Or maybe he was here earlier
today.
JUSTICE EVANS: He was here earlier today.
MS. EGAN: Last meeting you said you might have Mr. Harris....
Page 3
October 3, 2006
Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Mr. Harris was at the meeting today, yes.
MS. EGAN: So he clarified things....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes.
MS. EGAN: It is an awful lot of money, an awful lot of money going to the Highway
Department and I guess it is really a shame, oh, sorry, item 776. Who is in charge of just public
works?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That would be James McMahon.
MS. EGAN: Yeah. That used to be when Ray Jacobs was here, under one department, correct?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It was two departments but they were both administered by him.
MS. EGAN: Yeah. Yeah. He did a very good job. Well, I am not saying Mr. McMahon
doesn't but he does need a wake-up, big wake-up calls quite frequently and I do do that. Can
you explain more on 777? Is this in preparation for the union contract?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No, this is just housekeeping from the Accounting Office. And this
is just moving money from where it is not needed to where it is needed.
MS. EGAN: Okay. And you checked that all out carefully?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, I did. And talked to John Cushman about it.
MS. EGAN: Good. On 778, I don't, again, think that these trips are necessary. These can all be
done by computer or phone or mail. Any kind of a trip has to cost 3-4,500 dollars. The town
needs an awful lot of things and I don't think this needs to be done.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Actually if I could answer that...
MS. EGAN: Now, 77, pardon?
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: If I could just speak to that, some of these are really important and
not just because this is at the University of Delaware, where I graduated from but just because
when you go to some of these forums, you really get to talk to a lot of different people and you
really.. .
MS. EGAN: I understand that.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: There is a lot of good information.
MS. EGAN: That too can be done by computer. You don't have to be face to face. I think the
Page 4
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
town has to start pulling their haunches, spending money. People are getting very uptight. That
is my opinion. On 780, that is something that will happen on October 17th. I hope you will get a
good crowd for that one. Oh, on the recreation, 782, I mentioned I think at the last and 783, they
are all on recreation that I hope the recreation center is in good shape, with a good roof and
decent drinking water which they most often don't have. Oh, what is 784 about and is that a paid
job?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: They get, I believe, $40 per meeting. The Conservation Advisory
Council reviews waterfront, creek front, environmentally sensitive applications...
MS. EGAN: Don't the Trustees do that?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That is right.
MS. EGAN: So why do we have to have...
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: This is a Board that was appointed, I think starting from the 80's
or maybe even the 70's, that also reviewed all these applications and were advisory to the
Trustees and they have to by law report to the Trustees on these applications.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That is right. And they also make recommendations for long-term
policy goals. They actually visit all the sites on their own, in their own vehicles involving their
own gas. I mean, there pay per meeting is a nominal stipend. And when it comes to
environmental issues, I am not sure that there is enough oversight. So you know, I don't want to
leave all of the review to just one Board of five. I think the more eyes the better.
MS. EGAN: You know, we have the Trustees, we pay them this and that. I don't know. It
seems like it is double work. Mrs. Finnegan was kind enough to explain 785 and pretty much the
same for 786. Now, okay, on 788, this is the Marian Council of the Knights of Columbus. A
right to life march. Certainly I am for that but in light of things that have happened throughout
the country, I certainly hope there will be a lot of police protection unless, in the event that there
were people who would protest it. People who, abortion clinics who are for, against, you know,
who are for abortion whereas we are for the right to life. So I think you couId have some
problems and confrontation there. So please note and ask the police department to have good
coverage there; with what is happening in this country and throughout the world, you don't
know. Very important. Now, 789, now, I think there is another one also. This is on Halloween.
In my opinion, Halloween has gone off the wall. With what happened over the weekend, what
happened yesterday, I think it is a potentially dangerous situation. I don't think at this point you
can probably stop these groups that are going to be running this parade but I think they should be
warned. I think it should stop. Halloween is for little kids and they should be done in their small
communities and in somebody's home. A mother and father's home. Like I did for my children.
There is too much violence. Unfortunately, I, Sunday night, and happened to look at 60 Minutes.
And what these young people have the availability and by young, I mean, it can, 7 year olds. 8,
10, 11, 12. any age can view. They had about the homeless. And there were three men, 18
years old, who had viewed these horrible tapes. This man hires the homeless and makes them do
Page 5
October 3, 2006
Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
things horribly and he doesn't pay them, and these three 18 year olds are now in prison for 35
years each because they beat a homeless man to death. They learned how to do it watching this
video tape. Mark my words, everything I have been telling you all up here for two or three
years, what is happening to our community. It can happen here. It is happening here. You have
had religious desecration. You have had everything. You have had everything. And you are all
letting it go on, thinking it is going to be a good time. I know, I know. Now on item 790, these
new police officers. Now, when do they get, when do they start working?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: This resolution will basically our support for sponsoring them
through the police academy. That would, I think, be effective as of today. That would be for, I
guess, active duty sometime next May, June.
MS. EGAN: Next year. They won't be in, will they be doing any kind of work for us?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: The police academy is work.
MS. EGAN: Just police academy work.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: And this would give them the credentials they need to come on board
with us when we need them seasonally next spring, early summer.
MS. EGAN: Good. So 792, I think, I reviewed my feelings about these parades. You had better
start thinking carefully. Now, 794, this is the Human Resource Center and again, you have
another change. I think it was about somebody that was out on a disability or something, so I
don't think these changes should be happening that often up there. So, Karen McLaughlin does a
good job but there should be better management. Now, here we come with the dump and an
awful lot of money spent there. An awful lot. And to the best of my knowledge, seniors are still
being treated with very little respect. You might want to give Mr. Bunchuk a little wakeup call.
Oh, number 796, now this Verizon network integration; they have been working on that up at the
police station for quite some time. When is it going to ever be completed?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I don't think in this technological age anything is ever completed. It
is constantly being updated.
MS. EGAN: Good point. Yeah, okay. So we are moving along with it?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We are moving into the, we are blazing into the 1990's in technology
around here.
MS. EGAN: I thought we were still in the 80's. This compost, I don't think anybody is using it.
It should be free at all times, all the time. That's 797. Oh, 7, oh, doesn't have a number.
Category department, contracts, leases and agreements. Page 20. I guess it is number 798. I
certainly hope that that will be wrapped up quickly. You don't want to have what happened the
last time with these people. I don't say give into them but negotiations should get going and it
should be done properly and quickly. And the 799, a seminar. I would imagine that is a one day
Page 6
October 3, 2006
Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
thing. Oh, two days, 23rd, 24th and 25th. Again, this is a big expense but I guess it has to be
done. 800, homecoming parade. I don't know. I hope that will go out without incident.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is at 9:00 in the morning.
MS. EGAN: Mmm?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is at 9:00 in the morning. Ne'er-do-wells like to sleep until noon.
MS. EGAN: What time did the killing of the Amish happen? Don't tell me it is in the morning,
it has nothing to do with the price of beans.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I am just saying as a ne'er-do-well, I like to sleep until about noon.
MS. EGAN: Huh?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: As a ne'er-do-well myself, I like to sleep until about noon.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Try to keep Scott off the street in the morning.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yard sale-ing.
MS. EGAN: Yeah. And I guess 801 is really, that is going to be, that is going to be a big
meeting also. That doesn't need to be reviewed now although the information is all here. Oh,
now where is this 802, where is this located?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: 802 is, oh, that is the community parking lot, this is the municipal
parking lot owned by the Town right up here on the south side of 25 right before you get into the
hamlet of Southold. Right next to the old Dickinson Real Estate building. Oh, it used to
Leisurely Yours. Compliment the Chef is there now. The municipal building right next door to
that municipal parking lot.
MS. EGAN: No, I don't know.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is pretty much the only one.
UNIDENTIFIED: Right across from the pharmacy.
MS. EGAN: Oh, in Southold.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is the only one the Main Road.
MS. EGAN: I know where you mean. Oh, yeah.
SUFERVISOR RUSSELL: It is a municipal parking lot. And that is for the desperately needed
Page 7
October 3, 2006
Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
maintenance of upkeep and upgrade.
MS. EGAN: Yeah. And what, and then the next one 803, where is this is East Marion?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Eighteen acres right in and around and north of the post office and
fire house. Eighteen vacant acres. More or less vacant acres.
MS. EGAN: Okay. And I guess the rest is really pretty much on the public hearing, correct?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes.
MS. EGAN: So, that wraps it. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you. Would anybody else like to comment on any agenda
item?
TOM SKABRY: Tom Skabry, President, CSEA Town of Southold. Good evening, Town
Board. It is not usually usual that I come up to these meetings but I figured I would grace you
with my presence today. A couple of items I would like to discuss. Item 779, which is Fishers
Island. Is this by chance the same captain that we had a problem with, with raw sewage being
dumped into the Long Island Sound? A couple of years back, costing the Town some litigation?
JUSTICE EVANS: It is not the same.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I am sorry, 779?
MR. SKABRY: I believe so, Fishers Island. 779.
JUSTICE EVANS: It is not the same person.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No, this is unrelated. This is basically, this is a straight forward
contract issue and basically he has reached his fifth year of service and gets a 5 % salary
increase. That is part of their policy. And he is unrelated to other issues.
MR. SKABRY: Alright. Because I just find 5 % being a pretty steep increase smce
administrative staff, politicians and CSEA workers and PBA members of the Town.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: This is after five years of service, though. It is not unlike steps, it is
not unlike longevity, it is not unlike anything else that is in your CSEA contract. It is just a
separate, it is a separate, I don't know if reward system is the right word but it just separate...
JUSTICE EVANS: He had negotiated with the Fishers Island Ferry District, paid for taxes in the
Fishers Island Ferry District which only the people who are residents and property owners on
Fishers Island are taxed for that.
Page 8
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is part of their contract and it is no different than steps or longevity
in our contracts. This isn't a 5 % increase because he just finished a year, it is 5 % because he
just completed 5 years. And I don't know how it is set up over there in terms of how it compares
to yours. I would be interested in knowing. I don't even know if they have step increases.
MR. SKABRY: I would be interested in seeing their contract, if they have one. Do they,
Louisa?
JUSTICE EVANS: I am sure they have a contract. I am just not familiar with it. They negotiate
it with the Ferry District commissioners.
MR. SKABRY: And you are not a commissioner for the Ferry District?
JUSTICE EVANS: No, I am not.
MR. SKABRY: Anybody from the Town Board?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No. They are a separate taxing entity, just like a fire district, just
like a park district. They are a, what they do is they operate out of the full faith and credit of the
Town but they are their own Board of Directors, their own Board of Commissioners making their
own decisions.
MR. SKABRY: Alright. Is there any way we can get a hand on that contract?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I will look into it. We are not necessarily entitled to it and I am not
sure that that is something that we want to use as a template for our discussions on our contract.
MR. SKABRY: I would just like to take a look at it because the way that the resolution is
written up, you know, I read it as a longevity benefit.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: You get that in CSEA now.
MR. SKABRY: At ten years.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, you get steps for the first five, right?
MR. SKABRY: We are paid (inaudible) the final salary on the 5th year. The way this says, it is
a longevity benefit, the completion of five years. Our contract says longevity is completion of 10
years, you get a 5 % increase.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right. The only reason we have no role in the negotiation with the
Fishers Island Ferry District. The only reason it is on our agenda for resolution for passage is we
are the levying agent for the Fishers Island Ferry District. They are their own, just like we are
the levying agent for many special districts here. And because that particular district operates
under our full faith and credit, we have to ratify their decision making but in no way do we get to
Page 9
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
take part in their decision making. In fact, I think a few times over the last several months we
wish we did but we didn't have that option.
JUSTICE EVANS: I don't know if you can get a copy or not. If you want the manager, you can
call the Fishers Island manager and ask them for a copy.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: After this meeting...
JUSTICE EVANS: You can call, I don't know whether you have a right to the contract, whether
they will give them to you or not but that is who you should ask.
MR. SKABRY: What was that number again?
JUSTICE EVANS: 788-7463.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I am sure he appreciates that on public television.
JUSTICE EVANS : Well, it is the office number.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That is Tom Doherty.
MR. SKABRY: Alright. Well, that is enough on that. Item 783, would I be correct in assuming
that the Town is actually the employer of this employee or this individual? As they will be
paying the individual from Town tax money?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: What was that number again?
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: 783.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: This is actually one of those things that the Town more or less, it is
a no money issue for the Town because although we contract what we are paying them, we get
that money remunerated to us through the user fees, by the subscription fees of the people who
take these particular courses. So that, it is always a break even situation. In fact, there are
circumstances where we make a few dollars but not much.
MR. SKABRY: Could we have this position placed into the collective bargaining unit?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: For a youth basketball instructor?
MR. SKABRY: All employees of the Town.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No. No.
MR. SKABRY: No?
Page 10
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No, I don't think there is any obligation to...
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I would request that at the time that you do negotiations that
that is what your request is but. . .
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yeah, I mean, if you want to put that on the table when we are
talking about contracts I will be happy to talk to you about it but if you want to come up to a
Town Board meeting to ask me to ask a guy who comes, who is nice enough to teach youth
basketball at a pittance to join the union, you know, that is subject to contractual negotiation
not.. ..
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: These people are basically private contractors, contracting out
their services. They are not really employees of the Town.
MR. SKABRY: That would be good.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: Excuse me?
MR. SKABRY: That would be good, as long as they come along with their own insurance and
everything else. Alright. 793, which is the court reporter. We will be requesting to have this
position placed into the collective bargaining unit as well.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That is a 1099 position, so you know.
MR. SKABRY: Okay. I am sorry, I couldn't hear you.
JUSTICE EVANS: I am just saying that these are all contractual positions. The court reporters
they work for the court, the interpreters. . ..
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: They are subcontractors that we hire but then again, you can put that
on the table for discussion.
MR. SKABRY: Don't we have stenographers already working for the Town or are they two
different positions?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Stenographers, yes, court reporters, no. I wish we did, they are very
difficult to get.
MR. SKABRY: Right.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: And I spend a lot oftime on the phone trying to line some of them up
for these hearings that we have.
MR. SKABRY: Alright. Then on a pleasant note. 794. Hopefully the Town will adopt this
resolution. Amanda has proven to be a very good asset to the nutrition or Human Resource
Page 11
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
Center and I hope the Town will go ahead and adopt this resolution. And 798, which is the
agreement between the Town and the CSEA regarding the mechanics for the DPW. It is nice to
work hand in hand with the Town on this issue to alleviate, to accommodate the needs of the
Town and I appreciate it and hopefully the Town Board will be accepting this resolution as well.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Tom, you are not going to ask everybody who marches in this
Halloween parade to join the union, are you?
MR. SKABRY: No, because they are not paid.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Alright. Any other comments on the agenda iterns?
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: I have a couple.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay, go ahead.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: One is this reconstruction of the parking lot in the village here in
Southold. I would like to add to that that drainage be added to contain the run-off from the
parking lot.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: So we don't contribute that run-off to the neighboring properties.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That was a late entry on my part, that was my failure. I forgot to get
it on the agenda. That is simply to reconstruct the municipal parking lot.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: I never saw the plans, that is why I am concerned. And another
one that I, it concerns the Halloween parade and I didn't have any issue with them because I
have always been a fan of Halloween parades having marched in them as a child and having my
children marching in them but someone brought to my attention this evening that the Halloween
parade in Southold actually closes down the Main Road during the midday and they wondered if
there wasn't an alternate route that they could take to march the children on to prevent, you
know, the Main Road being closed on a Saturday at noon time. And I don't know if that is
possible, it is too late to consider for this year; at least it should be considered for next year.
Because the Mattituck one is on the side road and it doesn't affect traffic.
SUFERVISOR RUSSELL: Yeah. We can table because we will still have, it is the 28th I think,
so we will still have plenty of time to pass the resolution. If you want to table it, I will gladly
pick up the phone and see if they will consider other options. Even...
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: I never even thought of that. I assumed the parade was in the
evening.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yeah, I didn't either.
Page 12
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: But it is at...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Twelve noon, which I can understand...
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: A business owner was concerned further to the east that you know,
traffic is going to be shut down on the Main Road for a while.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That is a fair point, I never even thought of that when we put it on
the agenda. So I would gladly table it and talk to them and see if they want to create a different
route.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Okay. A different route.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay? Anything else? (No response) Can we move forward with
the agenda?

LILLIAN BALL: Hello, I am Lillian Ball from the Kenney's Beach Civic Association, I am the
Page 37
October 3,2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
chairman of the Great Pond Wetlands Preservation Committee and I want to just speak briefly
about the Mazzanobile appeal issue in our area. The Kenney's Beach Civic Association is
pleased to have the support of the North Fork Environmental Council in the preservation of the
Great Pond Wetland area. They have spoken eloquently about the need for consistency
regarding the unfortunate Tsai permit decision by the Trustees in this very sensitive area.
However, it is important to consider the entire 12 acre area as a whole. Therefore, we need to
remember that there is an opportunity to appeal this Mazzanobile decision. I am going to read a
letter. 'We support the appeal (this is written to both the Trustees and the Town Board, you may
not have had a chance to read it yet but) Dear Trustees and Town Board, We support your
appeal of the New York State Supreme court decision which mistakenly reinstates
Mazzanobile's permit to build in the Great Pond wetlands. The Trustees in April of 2005, when
they made the decision, it was an appropriate and correct decision while the one tried in the
Supreme court is deeply flawed. There are many inaccuracies, as well as several points that can
rightfully be supported by the facts. The decision states that the Trustees originally knew of the
sensitive nature of the area but in actuality, they had never seen any botanical reports such as the
one we commissioned by Eric Lamont, PhD, which certainly included the subject parcel, another
point that they said it was not even clear that it was included. It was definitely included. Mr.
Lamont was suggested to the Kenney's Beach Civic Association by the New York State Natural
Heritage foundation and they subsequently validated his findings in a letter dated October 8,
2004. Contrary to statement number 5 on page 5, there was definitely a recommendation in a
November 18, 2003 Mark Terry memo to the Trustees that unless it maintained the maximum
100 foot setback, permit number 5631 the permit in question, should be denied. Heather Cusack,
the Environmental Technician for the Trustees attended a meeting with the Suffolk County
Health Department (this was another one of the points that they were concerned about) she came
with the approval of the Trustees, she did not come at the request of the Civic Association. She
has always been circumspect and professional in her dealings with the Kenney's Beach Civic
Association. She came to scientific conclusions based on her own research and the January 27
2005 environmental assessment reflects the serious attitude. The accusations and the decisions
are unfounded. After the Trustees initial permit, the New York Department of State designated
our area as part of a significant habitat called Goldsmiths Inlet and Beach. There is no way for
the Trustees to have known all of that in 2002 or that the Southold Town Board would include all
of the properties in our area, this delicate inter-dunal swale on their targeted community
preservation list. Also, the Mazzanobile's had plenty of time to hire their own experts to report
on the environmental issues regarding the property but did not choose to do so. These are
several points that I think contribute to the possibility of their winning this appeal. As you may
know, Suffolk county is in the process of acquiring several of the lots in the inter-dunal swale
area, we have two that are about to close and another two that are in very heavy duty
negutiations. This is in addition to the Harper preserve which we have already preserved with
the Land Trust. Two more, the double lots 21.6 and 21.7, we refer to as the Mazzanobile lots,
though in fact they are owned by Mr. Georgopoulos, are in serious negotiation. These two lots
have the native cranberry bogs on them and are essential to preservation, since they are at the
heart of this 12 acre environmentally sensitive area. Now, it would be ideal if we could get Mr.
Georgopoulos to sell us the properties, you know to sell the county the properties, that would be
the best solution to the situation, however there is no guarantee that that will happen and
therefore I think it is very important for the Trustees to follow through with the appeal. We
Page 38
October 3,2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
believe that they can win the appeal and hope that you will endeavor to protect the only such
eco-systern on the North Fork. Now, we certainly hope that the LWRP issues can be resolved,
sooner than innnediately but we can't afford to overlook this Mazzanobile appeal. And it is my
understanding that the Town Board will ultimately be responsible for deciding whether or not the
appeal gets made. Since I sent this letter to both the Trustees and the Town Board, I wondered if
there was any possibility if you could connnent on this and give me an indication as to what your
feeling is. I have spoken to the Trustees about it as well.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Do you want to poll the Board members?
MS. BALL: A poll? Sure.
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I can say that we are still, we are talking with the Trustees
about it and then we will talk to the Town Board about it after the...
MS. BALL: The Trustees make the original reconnnendation I know.
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Right. And we are still working with the Trustees on that. I
don't really have...
MS. BALL: Do you find any of the points that I brought up new?
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I think most of them are things that we thought of or that we
wer!' considering but you know, I can't really speak to what...
MS. BALL: I think that those things are pretty strong and pretty defending, you know, really
would be a reason for doing that.
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Sure.
MS. BALL: And I know that this is the most environmentally sensitive area, right smack dab in
the middle of our wetlands and it is crucial for preservation. So, I will perhaps be speaking to
you again. General feelings of support?
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: I don't think you need to hear from me.
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I think you should hear from the Trustees first.
MS. BALL: I know Mr. Krupski is definitely, since he was the very brave and important
president of the Trustees at the time this decision was made I would think that he still supports it
and 1 also think that there are other people on the Board who do support it so, I would hope that
you give it very serious consideration and also you have how many months left?
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I know that we have a few months left, I don't know exactly
where we are at.
Page 39
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
MS. BALL: You have three months, right?
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Yeah.
MS. BALL: You have, I think, three or four months yet. But I did not get a feeling from the
Trustees that they were 100 % behind it and that is why I am appealing to the Town Board.
Thank you.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Thank you.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anybody else like to put the Town Board on the spot? No, I
was just joking. Would anybody else like to address the Town Board on any issue?
FRANK WILLS: Good evening, Frank Wills, Mattituck. Since the word LWRP was
mentioned, I thought I would ask. After the meeting recently between the Trustees and the
L WRP council, whether anything has been resolved or whether we can expect an answer on the
inconsistency question that the commissioner raised about the decision by the Trustees?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Which decision? All decisions? Are you talking about Tsai?
MR. WILLS: The Tsai...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: The meeting was about a larger issue and that was a lack of
compliance with Town Boards and the standing law, so, that is what we kept the focus. You
know, I don't know. I am perhaps biased because I chaired the meeting. I thought the meeting
was productive. It is clearly the first of what should be many meetings as to develop more of a
relationship between the Trustees and the L WRP coordinating council. I think we are starting to
head in the right direction in certain respects, probably a little bit slower than people would like
but at least we are going in the right direction at this point. But like I said, I will have to defer to
others for an opinion.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: May I add, if he is going to defer to others, I attended the
meeting and I thought it was a very constructive meeting and I think that I sensed, at least, a
willingness on the parts of all participants to basically abide in one way or another, with the
LWRP. And up until recently, I am not sure if I have sensed that. There were two things that
came out of that meeting that I thought were important and it think there was general consensus
about. One of them is, it really is difficult for the Trustees to comply with all of this. If they are
going to comply properly with it and interact effectively with our L WRP coordinator, they really
need some additional staff. I think the supervisor will be talking with the Trustees office and the
Trustees as to exactly the nature of that and how much and what level and all of that but I expect
something will come out of that that will be very positive and useful.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Don't worry, Tom, they are going to be in the union.

Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: Second, the second comment is if there were a standard package
of best management practices, which applicants understood at the outset, that they could follow
and that they could tick off in their application form, that their application follows those best
management practices, all of this stuff would just be a slam dunk. There would be really no
problem in having an application go through the process and be approved. So I think part of the
responsibility is on the Town's side to make clear what those policies are and simplified
straightforward ways of how to comply with it. And I am hopeful that that will come out of
subsequent meetings of the LWRP coordinating council.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Don't forget, this is a, sort of a state project and the state gave the
Town zero guidance on how to work these, the practical application of this. And so, the Town
has been working through this and it has been over a year and the kinks are still tying people up
in knots. But I think, like Tom said, there is awareness now that there are problems and there is
a willingness to work through these problems and the meeting last week was very productive I
felt.
MR. WILLS: Good.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I sensed a willingness. It is a learning process for everybody
involved, not just the administrators, such as the Trustees. Mark Terry, we are all learning. And
the public, I think. Our next charge is to get the public to understand what the L WRP concept
means and as all of this, it should become part of the process down the road so that it is not going
to be too cumbersome, but we are in the initial stages of adoption.
MR. WILLS: Good, thank you.
UNIDENTIFIED: When is the next meeting?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We will probably set one up for probably about another week or two,
I would think. Mark was out and we will wait for Mark to come back.
UNIDENTIFIED: And it will be open to the public?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Absolutely. Anybody else like to comment on any issue?
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: Scott, I would like to very briefly draw attention to a letter that
cam~ to us today from John Holzapfel, indicating his wish to resign from the Board of Trustees,
you may know that John was appointed by this Board back at the end of last year to replace the
position that Albert left when he joined the Town Board. He was appointed to that position for
several reasons. First of all, he served as an exceptional Trustee some years ago on that Board;
secondly, he has the qualifications that I think all of us feel are important. He is intimately
connected with the marine environment, he is a science educator, a science teacher who has
projected his knowledge to many, many people over the years and thirdly, his first foray as a
Trustee came with those of us at that time, this is some 10 or 12 years ago, who came in under
the platform of people not politics. And I think that is one of the reasons why this Board
Page 41
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
unanimously appointed him because he was an apolitical appointment at that time, a year ago.
He is stepping down now, because he and his wife who have retired as schoolteachers are going
off to Europe for a vacation; they know they are going to miss a meeting in October and he has
proposed in his letter that he not only miss this meeting but that he retire from the Trustees and
make the position open and available to the person who wins the election this year. It is again, a
very non-partisan and I think a position that is very much in keeping with John's traditions over
the years. I just hope that the election results in a person who can carry on John Holzapfel's
approach and what he has brought to the Board of Trustees.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I want to echo Tom's comments on John. I can't say enough about
his non-partisan, straightforward approach. He has been open to discussion on every issue. He
didn't need the job, that is for sure. He didn't do it for the money, he did because the Town was
in need last year because we lost someone with a significant amount of experience. John had the
experience. He stepped forward. He was a unanimous choice by this Board and he gave us a
year of, one heck of a year of service and I want to thank him on behalf of everybody in
Southold Town.
MS. BALL: I just wanted to say, John Holzapfel stood up and voted against the Tsai permit with
a very eloquent speech, saying if this is not an area to protect, what is? And I think we wiJI miss
him and I do want to reinforce this idea; the Trustees should be non-partisan. The environment
and the citizens of Southold Town should be served by people who have open minds and not
political agendas. So, I hope that in fact in November we wiJI get the right person on the Board.
Thanks.
ANNE MURRAY: Anne Murray from East Marion. I just wanted to know, you were saying
about the need for more staff, to have consistency with the LWRP. WiJI you be hiring more staff
for Mark Terry's office? Is that in the works or...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It would actually, well, Mark certainly needs staff. We had actually
hired someone to assist him earlier this year; January I believe. An assistant environmental
review coordinator. Because of the lack of staff there, she ended up working on so many other
projects, site plan review etc. It would be my hope that a reallocation of the existing staff wiJI
meet his needs. I think the focus right now is to make sure that the Trustees have the staff, since
that is where my real fundamental problem is, with implementation. The Planning Board hasn't
had a problem following the L WRP or adhering to it; the Trustees have. The meeting I had that
night was designed to find out one thing. I don't want to discuss whether you need to adhere to
it or whether you don't. I don't want to talk about sovereign jurisdiction. I don't want to talk
about the Andros patent, I want to talk about how do I help you adhere to it? Because it is the
law, you have to.
MS. MURRAY: Okay.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: And they tell me what some of their staffing needs are and I
budgeted for it this year.
MS. MURRAY: So when wiJI there be people there to help them?
Page 42
October 3,2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: January, fiscal year, January I.
MS. MURRAY: Okay. And I also wanted to mention, we got a call from a member at the
NFEC who actually volunteered to work in Mark Terry's office. Ifit was that overburdened, she
is willing to come in and work a few days a week.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is a new process and it is overburdened right now. Mark wears
four or five different hats. So there is no question about that.
MS. MURRAY: Sure. But I mean, that indicates the interest out there...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: But I don't think the with the Trustees was really about, I don't think
it was a Mark Terry issue, I think it was a Trustee issue that we moved to resolve the other night.
We have some work to do, there is no question about it.
MS. MURRAY: Right. Then we look forward to January. Thank you.
COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Well, the offer was made by the last Town Board for additional
help in the Trustee office and the reason that we didn't take it up at the time was because there is
a certain dynamic in the office, the way we process the applications and the way we conducted
the business there and unless you know, there was no mechanics to the LWRP. It wasn't like,
this is what we are going to do, it was all sort of making it up as we went along. We were
working with Mark as the coordinator and trying to, we were trying to train him and he was
trying to train us. So, we just didn't want to take on additional staff without really knowing what
that staff was going to perform, what tasks. That is why there was a reluctance to take somebody
on initially. It was very unclear how all this was going to work out and now, that was the whole
point of the meeting the other night, was to try to designate certain tasks for certain people so
that this all works smoothly. Not just take on extra help and say that will solve it.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yeah, it is not just new staff, it is how you are allocating your
existing staff and I find that is a problem in just about every office here and that is something we
are focusing on addressing. I have talked to the staff members, I have talked to the Trustees, I
have talked to, the only person I haven't since that meeting have talked to ironically is Mark
because he has been on vacation. But certainly he has been, I mean, we talk about this every day
when he is here.
MS. MURRAY: Okay, great. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anybody else like to comment on any issue? (No response)
Hearing none, can I have a motion to adjourn?

2. Set 3Rd Day of October, 2006 At 8:00 P.M. At the Southold Town Hall, Main Road,
Southold As the Time and Place for a Public Hearing Regarding the Excavation Permit of
North Fork Country Club
COMMENTS - Current Meeting:
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN as there has been presented to
the Town Board of the Town of South old, Suffolk County, New York, on the 5th day of
September, 2006 an application for a permit for soil removal, sand and gravel pit or other
excavation purposes from the North Fork Country Club located at Route 25, Cutchogue, New
York, AND
NOTICE IS HEREBY FURTHER GIVEN that the Town Board of the Town of South old will
hold a public hearinl! on the aforesaid application at the Southold Town Hall. 53095 Main
Road. Southold. New York. on the 3rd dav of October. 2006 at 8:00 p.m. at which time all
interested persons will be given an opportunity to be heard.
The purpose of the permit is to excavate for an irrigation pond for the purpose of a new water
source for the golf course irrigation system. The proposed pond is approximately 82,000 square
feet of surface. It is estimated that approximately 17,400 cubic yards of soil will need to be
excavated, with 6,301 cubic yards to be retained on site in connection with covering the PVC
pond liner, and 11,099 cubic yards to be disposed off site. The complete application and site
plan is available for viewing at the Southold Town Clerk's office during normal business hours.
This notice of public hearing appeared on the Town Clerk's bulletin board outside the meeting
hall here and I also have a confirmation that it was also printed in the local newspaper. We have
a lot of plans that show exactly what this is supposed to be and we have dated September 26th a
statement from the LWRP coordinator regarding the soil removal permit for the North Fork
COU'lty Club. "The proposed action involves the creation of the irrigation pond by removing all
this soil from the site and installing the liner. The proposed action is located 233 feet from the
edge of a jurisdictional wetland system. The proposed action has been reviewed according to
Chapter 268, waterfront consistency review of the Town code and the Local Waterfront
Revitalization Program policy standards. Based upon the information provided as well as to the
records available to me, it is my determination that this proposed action is consistent with the
policy standards; therefore is consistent with the L WRP.n I also have a letter from the Office of
the Town Engineer, dated August 30th. "Dear Town Board members, As per the request of the
Town Attorney's office, I have reviewed the site plan and a detailed description of the proposed
operation as well as the applicants justification for this project. The enclosed site plan drawings
Page 44
October 3, 2006
Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
also include excavation grading details related to the construction of that pond. Town code
indic:ates that this proposed action will require a permit issued by the Town Board for the
excavation etc. Please note that the site plan in this application has been recently revised to meet
A. 150 foot setback from private property, as required by the code. The size and scope of this
irrigation pond is not considered excessive. This pond will be located entirely within the heart
of an existing golf course. In addition ,because of its size, it does not appear that the excavation
of this pond will not adversely affect the visual aspects of the adjacent landscapes or properties.
The project is located 233 feet from adjacent wetlands at its closest point and it is above the
elevation 10 foot contour. The State DEC has indicated that this project is outside of their
jurisdiction. At this time, it would appear this application meets the minimum construction
requirements and permit standards for soil removal found in Town code Chapter 228. This
determination should not be considered an approval of any other Town agency having
jurisdiction. If and when the Town Attorney deems this application complete, I would
recommend that the Board set a hearing to review it with the public in an effort to establish all
necessary conditions and safeguards that may be deemed appropriate by the Board, further
questions, don't hesitate to contact my office. James Richter" And I believe that those are all
the substantive comments that I have on this. There is quite a bit of additional material in the
file; we do have a letter here from a David T. Case of Leawood, Kansas. 'Subject the North Fork
Country Club proposed irrigation pond. The notice of public hearing regarding the Country Club
application was recently sent to me by the Club. I am a property owner in the woodlands south
of the golf course in an area potentially impacted by the proposed irrigation pond. I spend
summers in Cutchogue, however, my permanent residence is in Kansas and I will be unable to
attend the hearing. The notice contains very little detail. The numbers quoted regarding size,
soil, soil amounts to be excavated, the soil remaining etc., are difficult to comprehend without a
visual representation. There is no map to show where the pond will be located; its size and
proximity to adjacent properties. Further, there is no information regarding how the pond will be
filled. The source of the water and the potential impact on the water table and availability of
well water to the homeowners south of the golf course. There is no environmental impact
information. Recently, I have had a conversation with my sister Katherine, another property
own,er in the affected area. She visited Town Hall last week and found that the available
materials there do not give much detail either. She was unable to determine where the pond
would be located relative to our and similarly located properties. Because it is impossible for me
to come to Town Hall to view the application and site plan and considering the lack of detail, I
can only object to the approval of this application. Very truly yours, David T. Case.' What else
do we have? I think that is it.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anybody like to come up and address the Town Board on this
specific public hearing? Donald?
DONALD WILCENSKI: Good evening, Donald Wilcenski from Cutchogue. I am the greens
chairman at North Fork Country Club, representing the membership for North Fork Country
Club. I am here tonight with the president of the club, Charles Zumbach, just to make sure if
there were any unanswered questions, that we are here to address them. This project should be
known to all the neighbors and everyone around that it is not something that was done overnight.
We have been looking into this for the past two or three years. I have spent numerous hours
Page 45
October 3, 2006
Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
dealing with government agencies such as the tidal wetlands for the DEC, the freshwater
manager with DEC, Southold Town Trustees, the New York State DEC mining division and
lastly, this is our last hurdle with the Board. And I spoke with Scott earlier in the process and my
understanding this is the first time someone has applied for a soil removal permit since this was
put into effect. So, we want to make sure that we are not backhanding anybody or trying to do
something that is not up front and we have, I apologize to Mr. Case, I did receive a letter, a cc
from Betty Neville's office or directed from Mr. Case. I had sent him, David Case out in
Kansas, I had sent him a map that we had produced after the fact and we do have copies here if
anybody needs to see them, I would be glad to go over them with them. After speaking and
going over this, the irrigation at North Fork Country Club was installed in 1966. Everyone is
obviously very concerned about our ground water, as well as all the members at North Fork. We
have researched and hired professionals in both the irrigation industry, as well as water source
industry and researched many different aspects of trying to get enough water to irrigate our golf
course and everywhere we turned and whoever we spoke to, it came down to a reservoir system.
So, we have a 600 gallon a minute well that is on site right now that we currently use, it takes 10
hours to water the entire golf course. We were going to use that well to fill the pond. We are not
going to add any additional wells, there is not going to be any more additional impact in the
ground water for salt intrusion or any other problems. I have spoken with several neighbors in
the neighborhood; we feel this is the best way to handle this project. I have spoken with Mary
Holland, one of the neighbors on the back of the golf course, who had said that many of the
neighbors had concerns about salt intrusion; they couldn't afford to hook up to public water. We
took all of this into consideration and as I spoke with Bill Spitz, the regional water manager with
the DEC, he told me that the chances of us even getting a permit for another 600 gallon a minute
well would be far-fetched and he whole-heartedly agreed that the reservoir, lined pond system
would be the best to go for, to do. So, we have gone through this process of the application and
with the great help of the Town Clerk's office and also, I must say Jamie Richter really helped
out. This was a new process for everyone, for us. I was more concerned about the DEC, the
Trustees and all the other agencies out there and not realizing that this soil permit process was
just put into effect. But I would like to thank the Board and the Town Clerk and the Attorney's
off ice and also Jamie Richter for helping us get through this process and I assure you that we
will do the best job possible. We have hired two very reputable contractors and they have
multiple experience in these lined ponds and we hope to proceed as soon as we get approval.
Thank you.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thanks, Don. Would anybody else like to come up and address the
Town Board on this issue?
UNIDENTIFIED: I live next to Mary Holland, by the way. And you are going to be pumping at
the same rate, you just said, and you are not going to be using any more water than you are
currently you are saying. But the object is to get water quicker than 10 hours because if you
pump it from the pump, is this what your idea is?
MR. WILCENSKI: Yes. Initially we are going to be using more water to fill the pond, once the
pond is filled, we will be at the same level and we will have, and the DEC has instructed us how
to fill the pond and over a period of time, so we are not going to be pumping the well for 26
Page 46
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
days, 24 hours a day. Okay? So we have looked at every option we had and we cannot use town
water, it is not feasible, you know, good for the water system, with the plant material and fish life
that we plan on putting into the pond to help with mosquito control. So we have exhausted all
our means and I am working closely with Bill Spitz, with the NYS DEC water manager and he is
going to help us to build the pond. And by the way, we do have a water meter that we report to
the DEC on a monthly basis (inaudible) the month of April and August and we (inaudible).
UNIDENTIFIED: That is maximum?
MR. WILCENSKI: That is maximum, I am sorry.
UNIDENTIFIED: Maximum. The next question I have has to do with when we have had the
local paper, not this previous paper, the front page article was about run-off. Now, we have had
heavy rain. You have these pipes going out to Moore's Lane and the water (inaudible) that I
don't think is a very sound environmental, the way you are proceeding. Is there any chance that
if you are going to have heavy rain, in the forecast, you will be able to pump some of that into
the pond instead of going down the street?
MR. WILCENSKI: Absolutely.
UNIDENTIFIED: Is that what you are planning?
MR. WILCENSKI: We have already spoken to that. We have one pond that is on the course
(inaudible) we will pump that back into the (inaudible)....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: As a point of the clarification, the Town Board is, I think, on the
threshold of passing a drainage code that would require that they do something like that anyway,
in the near future. We are no longer going to allow for the pumping of water from any source
into public rights of way. So, in the near future they would have to be addressing that run-off
Issue anyway.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, it does. It includes everything.
UNIDENTIFIED: Oh, wow. That is going to be hard on some people.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, you know, it is not draconian. There is certainly exemptions to
every law and we are certainly going to consider all the circumstances. But there are
circumstances that are so clearly blatant, such as someone who decides at the end of the season
to pump out their pool into the street in front of them and I think that is what the law is really
intended to address. Not the person who that is facing a hardship because of flooding in a
basement.
UNIDENTIFIED: Okay. So in other words, you are going to try to alleve that problem at the
Page 47
October 3, 2006
Town of South old Board Meeting Minutes
same time on Moore's Lane (inaudible)...
MR. WILCENSKI: Absolutely.
UNIDENTIFIED: And Mrs. Holland has said that you are planning to dredge or something one
of the two small ponds because last year we had a terrific mosquito infestation and it turns out it
was a blocked drain or something.
MR. WILCENSKI: Well, I would ....
UNIDENTIFIED: How are you going to, are you, is the water going to be moving enough now
that you have three ponds instead of two, so that we won't get, you know, mosquito
(inaudible).. .
MR. WILCENSKI: The new pond will have two areas and two bubblers (inaudible) 8-12 inches
a day...
UNIDENTIFIED: Okay, so it will be moving all the time.
MR. WILCENSKI: Absolutely. Also, the fish eat the larvae and as far as the other pond on the
(inaudible) I spoke with Al Krupski when he was Trustee a few years ago and he called it pond
maintenance and I tried to get out Board to approve that, that was three years ago and
(inaudible). It is basically just leaf matter (inaudible) it no longer...
UNIDENTIFIED: And it is a problem for the residents.
MR. WILCENSKI: I appreciate everything (inaudible)
UNIDENTIFIED: Yeah. I think we can all work together but the most encouraging thing is
solving this Moore's Lane problem because this road run-off cannot be good.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Can I just have your name for the public record?
TRINA WALDRON: Trina Waldron, 300 Short Road, Cutchogue.
MR. WILCENSKI: And I will make sure, just for the record, I will make sure that our
superintendent knows that (inaudible).
MS. WALDRON: It is just not a good (inaudible)
MR. WILCENSKI: No, I understand.
MS. WALDRON: And it isn't good.
MR. WILCENSKI: Well, nine and a halfinches ofrain in 12 hours...
Page 48
October 3, 2006
Town of Southold Board Meeting Minutes
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yeah, there is no drainage system in the world that was built to
handle that.
MS. WALDRON: Maybe it is just better to percolate through the soil (inaudible) that will be
pumped out on Moore's Lane from an environmental point of view, I think it probably is, I am
sorry, but (inaudible) have to go around a puddle for two or three days, so, that is life.
(Inaudible).
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay. Would anybody else like to come up and comment on this
particular public hearing? (No response) Hearing none, can I get a motion to close the hearing?
