PUBLIC HEARINGS
6:00 p.m. - Brokaw. Bennett: This proposal is to subdivide a 4.997-acre parcel into two lots
where Lot 1 equals 80,000 square feet and is currently improved with a single-family residence
and metal garage, and Lot 2 equals 137,665 square feet, inclusive of the 5,200 square foot
flag strip., located on the slslo Bergen Avenue approximately 1,299' wlo Cox Neck Road in
Mattituck, SCTM# 1000-113-7-1.1.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Is there anyone here who would like to address the Board on
this application?
Bill Lindsav: I am the neighbor of the property on the east side of the subdivision, and I
have no objection to it. But I would like to say that when there's a subdivision in an
agricultural neighborhood, be it large or small, bear in mind it brings noise, farm dust
and late working hours.
Anthonv Trezza: We put the "right to farm" language in the Covenants & Restrictions
even on a small property like that so the property owners are put on notice of said
practices.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Is there anyone else who would like to speak to the Board on
this application? Hearing none, I will entertain a motion to close the hearing.
Georqe Solomon: So moved.
Ken Edwards: Second.
Chairperson Woodhouse: All in favor?
Ayes.
Chairperson Woodhouse: The motion carries. Mr. Edwards, would you please read the
resolution?
Ken Edwards: I would like to entertain the following resolution:
WHEREAS, this proposal is to subdivide a 4.997-acre parcel into two lots where Lot 1
equals 80,000 square feet and is currently improved with a single-family residence and

***************************
6:05 p.m. - Old Orchard at CutchoQue: Proposal is to subdivide a 4.619-acre parcel into
four lots, where Lot 1 equals 75,675 sJ. sJ. Lot 2 equals 40,620 sJ., Lot 3 equals 40,082 sJ.
and Lot 4 equals 44,830 sJ. located on the n/w corner of New Suffolk Road and Cedars Road
in Cutchogue, SCTM# 1000-109-6-9.1.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Is there anyone who would like to address the Board on this
application?
Tim Kelly: My wife and I live at 1650 New Suffolk Road, right adjacent to the subject property.
I was in Town Hall a couple of days ago to talk to Mr. Trezza about what appears to be
discrepancies between the subdivision map and the Covenants & Restrictions regarding
access to driveway. If I look at it correctly, the map shows access on Cedars Road,
meanwhile the C&R's mention New Suffolk Avenue, which of course is wrong, it's New Suffolk
Road. I sent a letter to Mr. Trezza asking how you reconcile the differences between the two.
Anthony Trezza: I discussed with the property owner and the applicant the discrepancy. Why
the C&Rs had three lots coming off New Suffolk Road, I'm not really sure. It was an oversight.
It was an oversight not seeing the discrepancy. But, what we're going to do tonight is we're
going to close the public hearing; we're not going to issue any approvals yet, but the way to
deal with this is that the map is correct. The clearing restrictions are correct. We want the
access off of Cedars; the fewer driveways off of New Suffolk Road, the better. So what we'll do
is we'll have them file another C&R or an amended C&R that changes the access for that lot
onto Cedars Avenue.
Tim Kelly: How many will have access?
Anthony Trezza: Two.
Tim Kelly: Two will have access on New Suffolk Road?
Anthony Trezza: Correct.

November 13, 2006
Tim Kelly: Does the filing of the amended C&R's become a condition for final approval?
Anthony Trezza: Yes, we won't issue the approval until the Covenants & Restrictions are filed.
Tim Kelly: OK. Thank you.
Chairperson Woodhouse: You're welcome. Is there anyone else who would like to address
the Board on this application?
Prudence Heston: I live across the street from Tim Kelly. I just wanted to come in and
make sure (inaudible)
Chairperson Woodhouse: Thank you.
Jeffrey T. Butler: Professional Engineer, on behalf of the applicant. I have no problem
making the adjustments to the covenants Mr. Trezza has alluded to.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Thank you. Does anyone on the Board have any questions?
Is there anyone else who would like to address the Board? Yes?
Janet Moore: I haven't heard anyone say anything about the driveway off Case's Lane?
When you spoke about it last time, we thought that his driveway and my driveway are
so close together, on that little hill coming into Case's Lane, it's kind of dangerous.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Mr. Trezza?
Anthony Trezza: That particular lot has limited access, and it's off of Case's Lane. The
applicant has agreed that they will put the driveway I guess in the location that's furthest
away from the hill, but they're limited in where exactly the driveway could go. I don't
remember the exact frontage on the road there, but it's my understanding that you guys
would locate the driveway to be as far away from your driveway as possible while, at the
same time providing safe access to the lot.
Janet Moore: There can't be too much room, I don't think.
Anthony Trezza: There isn't.
Janet Moore: There's a big, steep gully there; you could also have a drainage problem.
Anthony Trezza: Jamie Richter is aware of the drainage problems; it's an ongoing
project for that area. He is aware, the Town is trying to do Town-wide drainage all over
the place and that happens to be one of the locations.

November 13, 2006
Janet Moore: How will that impact on this application?
Anthony Trezza: What Jamie does with that probably won't impact this particular
application. Like I said, I don't think there are many location choices for the driveway off
of Case's Lane.
Jeffrey T. Butler: We have 73' of frontage roughly on Case's Lane, and our intention is
going out there and look at the situation and how it impacts any neighboring parcel or
adjacent parcels, and position the driveway as far away as possible from those, while
taking into account the topography of the lot and the approach onto our lot, and the low
point, which would be on the left of the driveway, which is where water from that lot
drains naturally. So, we've gone out reviewed it and taken a look at it.
Chairperson Woodhouse: And that's as far oyer as it can go from the neighboring
property?
Jeffrey T. Butler: The exact distance of separation I couldn't tell you right now, I don't
have that number with me.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Any other comments? I think our intention is to entertain a
motion to close the public hearing and to not issue a decision this evening. Is there
someone who would like to offer the motion?
Ken Edwards: I will offer that motion:
WHEREAS, this proposal is to subdivide a 4.619-acre parcel into four lots, where Lot 1 equals
75,675 s.f. Lot 2 equals 40,620 s.f., Lot 3 equals 40,082 s.f. and Lot 4 equals 44,830 s.f.; and
WHEREAS, it was brought to the Planning Board's attention at the public hearing that there is a
discrepancy between the Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions and the final subdivision
map, prepared by Jeffrey T. Butler, P.E. and James B. Behrendt, L.S. dated last revised May
24, 2006; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Board and the applicant agreed that a revised Declaration of
Covenants and Restrictions will be filed to correct the discrepancy; be it therefore
RESOLVED, that the Southold Town Planning Board hereby close the public hearing for this
project and will render a decision at the next public meeting scheduled for December 11, 2006.
Joe Townsend: I'll second.
Chairperson Woodhouse: All in fayor?

6:20 p.m. - Southview Preserve: This proposal is to subdivide a 13.35-acre parcel
into three lots where Lot 1 equals 44,735 s.f., Lot 2 equals 37,343 s.f. and Lot 3 equals
42,470 s.f., with the remaining portion of the property preserved as open space, located
on the slslo Main Bayview Road, approximately 900' elo Cedar Drive in Southold,
SCTM#'s 87-5-21.4 & 87-5-21.7-21.10.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Would anyone like to address the Board on this application?
Paul Racz: I'm from Nelson & Pope in Melville representing the applicant on the
subdivision known as Southview Preserve. Also in attendance tonight is Mr. Donald
Ryan, the President of Southview Custom Homes and the owner of the subject
property. You will recall this project was originally submitted in May of 2002 as a five-lot
subdivision. It was then delayed by moratorium. Subsequent to the new code being
adopted, the property then yielded four fully-conforming lots. At this station, we are
resubmitting a four-lot subdivision. We met with the planning staff, who suggested that
the applicant consider a further reduced yield of three lots. We have now before you
this (inaudible) residential lots in over thirteen acres, with a conservation component of
over 79%, which will preserve the vast majority of the premises in its natural state.
Additionally, 100% of the fresh water and tidal wetlands will remain undisturbed on this
approved design. We have also prepared existing resources and house plans, along
with archaeological site survey, which were accepted as complete and comprehensive
by the Planning Department. The parking is under statute, pursuant to SEQRA, it was
granted a Negative Declaration, and sketch plan approval by this Board in December of
2005. As this project has undergone extensive review, the applicant has complied with
all the Planning staff's requests, and because we believe that this is a sensible and well-
designed subdivision plan which preserves the vast majority of the subject property, we
respectfully request that preliminary approval be granted this application. If there are
any questions or comments, we are made available to respond. Thank you.
Chairoerson Woodhouse: Thank you. Please sign your name. Is there anyone else
who would like to address the Board on this application? Hearing none, I will entertain a
motion to close this hearing.

6:30 p.m. - Cutchoaue/New Suffolk Free Librarv: This amended site plan is for the
alteration of the existing structure increasing the space in the basement level by 1,788
sq. ft. and the mezzanine level by 2,352 sq. ft. on a 32,670 sq. ft. parcel located on the
s/e corner of New York State Route 25 and Case's Lane known as 27550 Main Road in
Cutchogue. SCTM # 1000-109-6-2.2.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Is there anyone here who would like to speak on behalf of
this application?
Rav Nemschick: I am the architect for the library. I have first of all return receipts for
your records. Otherwise, I guess at this point you're familiar with the project. Is there
anything that you need to know further from me as far the parking counts, or to go over
anything?
Chairperson Woodhouse: Does anyone on the Board have a question?
Bruno Semon: We do need the return receipts handed in.
Chairperson Woodhouse: The question is being raised by Mr. Townsend about
temporarily eliminating parking during construction.
Joe Townsend: I don't think it's a question so much as just noting that that's the case.
Chairperson Woodhouse: Could you comment that Mr. Townsend just is noting that
there will be some loss of parking temporarily during the construction.
Rav Nemschick: Well, at this point the library has every desire to move their current
location during the construction so there won't be a loss of any use. But we wouldn't
lose, outside of site access, we could always look at another way to get onto the site.
The best way, obviously, is to come straight from Case's Lane, perpendicular to the old
church and create a temporary road so that when we do the excavation under the old
church, we have direct access instead of trying to route them onto another portion of the
site. (Inaudible) alleviate that later on.
Chairperson Woodhouse: OK. Thank you. Is there anyone else who would like to
address the Board on this application? I will entertain a motion to close the hearing.
