HomeMy WebLinkAbout02/14/1989 ~ !~ ~ CAC Local Waterfront Revitalization Program 2/14/1989 ATTENDING: Steve Latson, Peter Kren, Frank Bear, Richard Wilton Steve Latson told us that the Open Space Committee would ~ike a list from us just so that they would have more land to look at. SUB-AREA 7 - Town Harbor Lane to Indian Neck Lane I. DEVELOPMENT: Recommend all previously stated requirements. For the area of Southold Bay just to the North side of Mill Creek, area is pretty well developed up to the Plock property. Since this is undeveloped land, recommend that the town acquire the Plock property or as much of it as they can to provide public access for bathing and/or boating and leave some for open space. Also recommend town acquire marsh area north of Paradise Point Road. It flows into Cedar Beach Creek across Cedar Beach Road. It should be looked into because it is a unique area. If property could not be acquired, then we recommend 5 acre zoning because it is a extremely restrictive environmental area. Corey Creek area, we recommend extremely low density development on the east side which is still undeveloped at this time. Also Corey Creek is a critical habitat area. There is very little developable property in Sub-Area 7 that fronts on the water except for land on Richmond Creek. The Emerson property is developable. Recommend to look into the possibility property either be purchased or set aside in someway for retention of wooded area and open space next to Richmond Creek. Possibility of maybe the owners preserving some of the property to at least Richmond Creek. 2. RECREATION RESOURCES: As stated, recommend Plock property be acquired for beach area, boat ramps at Parkers Landing should be improved and used more. Recommend acquire additional land away from the creek along the road for additional parking. There is a boat ramp at end of Minniehaha Blvd. that should be improved. Both boat ramps at Town Creek, Pine Neck and Founders Landing should be improved. Recommend that trustees be given some funding to improve all existing boat ramps in South old Town. .- CAC LWRP 2/14/1989 3. FLOOD & EROSION: Recommend federal flood guide lines. No real bad erosion in this area. Some erosion in Cedar Beach area because of bulkheads and hard structures being built way too close to water. During storms, beach washes out. Recommend that set-back rules be followed. 4. WATER QUALITY: This area is on the CAC'S list of trouble spots. shallow water table, and if you develop too much along the shore line, you are going to get a lot Recommend that they need an alternate source for anymore development in this area. This area has more in this area of salt water. fresh water if 5. HARINAS: The marinas at Town, Jockey and Goose are In really productive shell fish areas. Goose Creek is not included in the significant habitat program whatsoever. Part of Town Creek and Jockey Creek are included in the significant habitat program. We recommend that Town, Jockey and Goose Creeks should be included i~ the habitat program in their entirety. We have two more marinas - Goldsmith's at head of Town Creek and Southold Harina at head of Jockey Creek. Recommend that if Goldsmith ever decide to sell property, town may try to acquire it because of the public access. Steve Latson would like to make a recommendation that Suffolk County pay more attention to their marine center at Cedar Beach. That facility has been under utilized since its inception. They have a hatchery there that they never use. They have ignored it. Suffolk County should do something more with it. The next meeting is to be held on Tuesday, Harch 7th, 1989 at 7:30 P.H.
