We have notification that it was published in the official newspaper, and that it was posted on the Town Clerk's Bulletin Board. There is no correspondence in the file. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Thank you, Brian. You have heard the reading in relation to the approval of the purchase of development on the Blum property. At this time would anyone like to address the Board either pro or con? Frank, may I let the committee do the presentation, first? Are you doing it, Mr. Ryan? Blum PH 2 MELISSA SPIRO: I guess I will do the first part, and he will do the second part. I will just describe where the property is. It is located in Peconic on Peconic Lane. It is across the street fi.om the Rec Center. It is adjacent to land that the current rights are owned by the County, and it is across the street from land in light green, which is the Town development rights. This is visual so I know where they are. This is the Highway Department. DICK RYAN: Good afternoon. My name is Dick Ryan. I serve as your Chairman of the Southold Town Land'Preservation Committee. Melissa has been kind enough to give us a brief overview of what is shown on the map there. This farm of approximately 14.8 acres in size has frontage on the west side of Peconic Lane. The north and east side of the property are occupied by the Southold Town Highway Department, and on the east side by a farm parcel on which the County of Suffolk holds the development rights. The farm is zoned Agricultural-Conservation, which permits single family residential development, but also intends to control development of open lands, which are agriculturally productive. The Haven Loam soil classification of this farm reflects it's high agricultural productivity. The farm is currently planted as a vineyard. The owner proposes to reserve approximately three acres at the southeasterly comer of the property from the proposed development rights easement. The reserved area is now improved with a residence and associated agricultural buildings. The area of the proposed development rights easement represents yet another link in a chain of agricultural land parcel that the Town and Suffolk County Farmland Programs have or will purchase and preserve. The preservation of these farmland parcels will serve to enhance efforts of consolidating large blocks of important productive agricultural land in Peconic and townwide. The Southold Town Planning Board has been consulted, and expressed no objection to the proposed purchase. The purchase price is $13,500 an acre, totally approximately $159,000. For approximately 11.8 acres. The market value of this proposed purchase reflects in part its development potential, and the location of the property. The value of the purchase is supported by a recent appraisal independently prepared by Given Associates of Hauppauge. A survey of the parcel will be accomplished and is subject to adoption by the Land Preservation Committee prior to completion of this proposed purchase. Because of it's agricultural value, it's location, and it's proximity to other existing preserved farmland this property has a high eligibilty for preservation. The Land Preservation Committee is unanimous in recommending this purchase. The purchase will most certianly preserve and continue a rural character in the Peconic, and specifically in the town in general. On behalf of the Land Preservation Committee I urge the Town Board to accept the offer of development to approximately 11.8 acres of this farm, and to resolve to purchase the same pursuant to the provisions of either Chapter 25 or Chapter 6 of the Town Code. I might point out as an aside that Ray Blare, the owner, is here with us this evening. This is his second transaction that he has entered into with the Town of Southold. The Land Preservation Committee is impressed with this particular agricultural landowner to the extent that we have impleaded him to come and be appointed as member of our Land Preservation Committee subsequent to our last transaction here, so he is looked upon as another valued member of our committee. Thank you. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Mr. Carlin? FRANK CARLIN: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen of the Board. Frank Carlin, Laurel. I haven't been speaking on this issue in the past, but I have some time. I will this evening. I want to make it very clear that I am not against open space or land preservation, but I think the Town Board is getting carried away a little bit with the way they are spending this money here. You know, when you start talking the last time when we was up here, the last meeting, what was it $12,000 an acre? Now, it is ~ Blum PH 3 $13,500 an acre. It reminds me of the Custer Institute. Don't get me wrong again. Those people needed those six acres of land over there. I don't deprive them of having the six acres of land, but you pay for that land $199,000, $33,000 an acre. Man, that's a lot of money, a lot of money. I think it is getting out of hand. I don't think the people in Southold Town realize that for every acre of open space is bought, or Land Preservation is bought a half an acre comes off the tax rolls. Who is going to be paying for these to make up the difference? Who is going to pay for it? I will give you another example. The Laurel Link Golf Course, 230 acres, if they didn't buy that for a golf course we know in the future that would have been bought for open space or for vineyard, but it now will be a Laurel Links Golf Course. It really had my approval, too. It will mean an income to the Town and the school of Mattituck ora tax revenue of $350,000. I think we would get more benefit in that area for an example than have us looking at it as open space. I am not saying you shouldn't have open space, but I think you are being carded away the way you hand out this money. It is like water you are handing out, $12,000 here, $33,000 there, $13,500 there. Man alive! I know what you are going to say to me. You are going to say to me, well, this is come f~om funding from the County, the State, Federal. That is not the Town's money. That is funds that we get to buy open space, but it doesn't matter. It all adds up to the same people, the taxpayers. It's their money you are using. Come on. You are getting carded away with it. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Thank you, Frank. Anyone else like to address the Town Board in relation to the land purchase, the purchase of the development rights, which the property stays on the tax rolls. JIM BITSES: He's got a point. Frank always has a point. He has brains, too. About five years ago I submitted a plan to the Suffolk Times in which people would in an open auction, so to speak, submit the development rights for sale, and each person who bought or sold a piece of property a certain tax would be levied which incidently has been done, and this tax would go towards development rights in the town, which would mean whoever was selling the development fights still owned the land, but he couldn't develop it. He could only farm it, and pay taxes on it. The point about taxes is well met. Another thing, the tax law that was enacted, what is 2 1/2 percent on all sales? I don't recall what it is, but that money goes to the County, and eventually it comes back to the town. In any event whatever happens to that money it is cash money for buying open areas, getting the title to the open areas. We don't need the title to keep an area open. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: You are 100% wrong, Jim. COUNCILMAN MURPHY: We are not taking title. COUNCILMAN MOORE: We are buying development rights there. We are not buying fee title. JIM BITSES: In any event I believe it would be a lot cheaper to buy the development rights. COUNCILMAN MURPHY: That is what we are doing. JIM BITSES: Is that what you are buying? You bought development rights on six acres for $190,0007 COUNCILMAN MOORE: The six- acre piece was fee title. Blum PH 4 JIM BITSES: That was an outright purchase. I am suggesting that avoid outright purchases in the future, and buy only development. Is that what the plan will be ? COUNCILMAN MOORE: That has always been the preferred plan. JIM BITSES: I suggested that five years ago, but the Suffolk Times wouldn't publish my article. In any rate, thank you. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Thank you. Anyone else like to address the Town Board? (No response.) If not, I will close the heating. Thank you, Richard, as always. Mr. Blum, thank you also. Southold Town Clerk S E R E S 0 L U T I 0 N ELIZABETH A.

Reynold Blum dead at age 62 By Ashley Macomb Long Island Wine Country pioneer, Peconic resi- dent and owner of Ackerly Pond Vineyards Reynold E Blum, 62, died Jan~ 10, of pancreatic cancer. "He was a hands-on owner," said his wife, Jill, in a brief phone convemation yesterday. "He was very suc~ Cessful at everything he did." She described him as care- ful and thorough, noting he was one of the first on Long Island to have a mechanical harvester. "He was very popular in the town, he had many, many Reynold Blum friends," said Ms. Blum. Born July 8,1944, in Belle- rose, N.Y., to Herman and Lillian (Wagner) Binm, Mr. Blum earned his bachelor's degree from Adelphi Uni- versity. He retired as an air traffic con- ~00~] troller at MacArthur Airport after 28 years. As a soldier with the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War, he received various medals. Among the first vineyard owners on Long Island, Mr. Blum planted Peconic Bay Vineyards in 1979. Devoted to ins business, he was often referred to as a pioneer in the wine industry. He sold Peconic Bay in 1991 and bought Acker- ly Pond Vineyards to have more land. Involved in the community, Mr. Blum was a past president of the Southold Town Agricultural Advisory Commit- tee, a founding member of the Long Is- land Wine Council and a past chairman of the Southold Town Land Preserva- tion Committee. According to family, he was a lifelong skier. "He was a great contributor to the town's preservation efforts not only as a land owner who sold development rights but as chairman of the town's land preservation committee," said Me- lissa Spiro, Southold Town's land pres- ervation coordinator. "He'll be truly missed." According to Jim Waters, owner of Waters Crest Winery and a close friend of the deceased, Mr. Blum helped to plant the first vineyards and helped a lot of different wineries start up and maintain their vineyards. "I think he'll really be missed by a lot of people the industry," Mr. Waters said. "He was a real good friend." On some of his property on the North Fork, Mr. Blum restored historic homes. "During the renovation of our farm house on Peconic Lane, Ray was faced with the dilemma of removing a very heavy cast iron bathtub from the second floor of the house," Ms. Blum said. "Not knowing exactly how to go about this, he decided to push it out the second story bathroom window, just in time for his mother- and father-in-law to be driving past and seeing this bath- tub flying through the air." "He's been a long-standing and very valuable member of the industry for many years," said Steven Bate, ex- ecutive director of Long Island Wine Council. "He was always quiet and genial and supportive of everyone, never said a negative word about anyone," said Lou- isa Hargrave, who co-founded the first vineyard on Long Island. She described him as having tremendous devotion to the industry and his family. In addition to his wife, Mr. Binm is survived by his daughter, Kerri, of Cal- verton, and his brother, Randolph, of California. Visitation at William E Coster Fu- neral Home in Cutchogue will be today, Jan. 11, from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. A graveside prayer will be said at 10 a.m. tomorrow at Calverton National Cem- etery, followed by interment.
