IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS:
THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING IN THE MATTER OF THE FOLLOWING
APPLICATIONS FOR PERMITS UNDER THE WETLANDS ORDINANCE OF THE
TOWN OF SOUTHOLD. I HAVE AN AFFIDAVIT OF PUBLICATION FROM THE
SUFFOLK TIMES. PERTINENT CORRESPONDENCE MAY BE READ PRIOR TO
ASKING FOR COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC.
PLEASE KEEP YOUR COMMENTS ORGANIZED AND BRIEF:
FIVE (5) MINUTES OR LESS, IF POSSIBLE
7:31 P.M. - In the matter of En-Consultants Inc., on behalf of
AQUA FOODS PROPERTIES LTD., requests a wetland permit to replace
(within 18") 1438 1.f. of existing timber bulkhead, maintenance
dredge 228+/-' (Max.) X 245+/-' (Max.) basin and 50 +/-' X
179+/-' of channel to a Max. depth of 10' (7')below ALW.
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 3 MARCH 30, 1995
Approx. 3,800 c.y.(3000 c.y.) of resultant spoil will be used
both for backfill and temporarily deposited in open field to
east of channel previously used as spoil site. Spoil deposited
in stated location will be removed and deposited at approved
upland source. Basin and channel previously maintenance dredged
to -10' ALW pursuant to NYSDEC permit. Multi-year maintenance
permit requested. Located 2835 Shipyard Lane, East Marion. SCTM
#38-7-7.1
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Would anyone like to speak in favor of this
application?
ROB HERMAN: I am Rob Herman, En-Consultants. As the Board knows
we have gone over this for several months. Didyou receive the
revised drawing?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: We did.
ROB HERMAN: That will show the dredging reduced from the maximum
depth from 18 to 17 feet...Also I know there has been historical
questions that have been brought up at the previous meetings and
Jack Mulhall is here tonight if any of those questions remain
outstanding.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Thank you. Marty, do you have any questions?
TRUSTEE GARRELL: No. We have been through this enough.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: We have gone through this and you have made
enough adjustments.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: You have made a major adjustment in changing
from 10 to 7'
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Have you spoken to the neighbors?
ROB HERMAN: I have spoken Mr. Edler, who is here, by telephone
earlier this week and he was satisfied. I quess there was a
question as to whether we got in touch with Mr...
MR. EDLER: He is in Florida. He said 7' is a good level even in
the basin.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Good.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Would anyone else like to speak in favor of the
application? (No reply) Would anyone like to speak against
the application?
MR. EDLER: It is not against. It is just a question with the 7'
How is that done? If by chance through human error or over
enthusiasm they violate the water table, who is liable?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Good question. In dredging projects in the past
we have asked for.post dredging survey of soundings. As far as
who would liable for violating a permit, I would imagine it
· would be the Bay Constable to enforce that as far as standard
permit violations. I understand your concerns on that. They are
certainly valid.
MR. EDLER: Another question was shortening of the east
bulkhead. It was only after Mr. Mulhall...as it went down in
length that the sand build up...It would seem the constant
literal drift from east to west, dying of the eel grass, so the
sand moves more. There is going to be a frequent need for
dredging as against when it went out almost to the dolphin.
ROB HERMAN: That was our original intention from our original
plan. Unfortunately, we are limited by what the DEC will allow.
They are less concerned with about the channel then damaging the
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 4 MARCH 30, 1995
beaches. If a groin has deteriorated they will not let you
recreate a longer length.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: The thinking there is that if it is functional
it is already doing its job and if it is deteriorating it is not
going to have any impact, however if it is no longer functional
and you replace it to that length, it is going to have an
immediate impact. The state is doing a big study on coastal
erosion. They are doing the bay. So far they have only offered
some pretty general information. They haven't really given us
anything specific to go on. I don't know if we would go against
the DEC recommendations to shorten that.
MR. EDLER: It is just an observation on the way it goes. We all
have to pray for Gardiners Bay and Wexler's groins to
decitigrate.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Any other comments.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: I just wanted to make a comment on what happens
if you have problems with the water table subsequent. I think
in any project those are always a question that comes up.
Clearly when you deal with nature and you deal with hydrological
gradings it is always a crap shoot. There would be a burden of
proof if anything happened. It would be question of whose
engineer...
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: When would the dredging...Is this just a permit
to do the dredging in the future?
MR. MULHAL: This is just a permit to do it to enhance the sale
of the property.
MR. KRUPSKI: O.K. I think because of these concerns we can put a
condition on the pe£mit that the material would have to be move
out within 30 days.
MR. MULHAL: It is our intention to comply to the regulations. To
speculate on when it would be done...it will be done within the
regulations.
ROB HERMAN: We gave you that revised survey. You had asked for
the, in the spoil area, current elevations so that you could
make sure the spoil that was deposited, was removed and returned
to the current elevation. That was done by Van Tuyl and you
guys should have it. If you don't, I will forward a copy to you.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: We would be putting a time constraint on moving
the material out. That is all.
ROB HERMAN: O.K.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Do you have the amended figure on the cubic
yards?
ROB HERMAN: I don't. Do you want me to figure it out before I
leave tonight and give you a copy.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Yes, that will give us a better idea of how
long the applicant is going to need. To give him a reasonable
amount of time to move the material out. We don't want to say 30
days if that is not going to be possible. We don't want to say a
week...we don't want to put him that position.
Any other comment? Motion to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: So moved.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Can I make a motion to table the vote until
we get the spoil number?
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 5 MARCH 30, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Yes.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: That makes sense.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: O.K. 7:45 p.m. - In the matter of
En-Consultants Inc., on behalf of WILLIAM GALATI request a
Wetland Permit to construct a 60' low profile timber groin
extending from existing retaining wall and approx. 2' west of
existing 85' high profile groin which will be removed
immediately upon completion of new one. Proposed groin will be
of same configuration as other replacement groins to west~ and
is in the midst of a large groin field which extends both east
and west. Located 55 Watersedge Way, Southold. SCTM#88-5-61.2
ts there anyone here who would like to speak in favor of the
application?
ROB HERMAN: Rob Herman, En-Consultants. This is pretty straight
forward as per the assessment last month they are shortening the
length of the groin and longing its elevation to basically allow
more material to move down drift. That is consistent with the
groins to the left.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone else who would like to speak in
favor of the application? Would anyone like to speak against the
application? They have a DEC permit with the standard
conditions. Does the Board have any comments?
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Motion to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Motion to approve.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: 7:46 p.m. in the matter of En-Consultants Inc.,
on behalf of MICHAEL KEELY requests a Wetland Permit to
construct a 75+ 1.f. of timber retaining wall with (2) 8'
returns. Approx. 50 c.y. of screened clean sand will be trucked
in and used as backfill, and a 3' X 28' fixed catwalk, a 3' x
12' ramp and a 6' X 16' float to be secured by (2) 8' pilings
and a 10' wide vegetated buffer zone (non-fertilizer dependent)
as per amended survey dated 3/1/95. Located 580 Goose Creek
Lane, Southold.
Is there anyone here who would like to speak in favor of this
application?
ROB HERMAN: Rob Herman, En-Consultants. It really stands as we
left last month. I spoke to Peter during the week as to whether
there was any further input from soil conservation. That is
where we left it.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I have a few comments on that.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Lets wait. Is there anyone else in favor? Is
there anyone against the application?
MILDRED CULLEN: Mildred Cullen. I am co-owner of the ROW. I
don't have a problem with the application, but I do have
questions about the length. Your survey shows 28'
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Of the dock.
MRS. CULLEN: Which brings it to 46' plus the width of whatever
bulkhead he's got. I believe that puts it into the channel and
at low tide you won't be able to get around because of the
island.
ROB HERMAN: I just want to point out the difference in the
length from the 4' X 25' and the 4' X 28' is because the walk
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 6 MARCH 30, 1995
extends to the bulkhead and the DEC requested that the bulkhead
be brought further landward. So the actual addition of three
feet is landward.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: If this dock was moved to the right side which
would be the eastern side of the property away from that
channel, away from that island, do you think that will help?
MRS. CULLEN: I don't know. The adjacent neighbor on the other
side has a dock that is only 30" out. They where perpendicular,
the keely application is proposed horizontally. TRUSTEE KRUPSKI:
They are from the bulkhead and they are how many feet from the
bulkhead?
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: The fixed walkway is 28, then there is a 12'
ramp...
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: No, I mean the neighbor.
MRS. CULLEN: There dock is 30' according the survey. They moor a
20' boat. Why does Keely need 46' or roughly 50' dock?
ROB HERMAN: It extends 40' from high water. As purposed it will
extend exactly 40' from high water.
MRS. CULLEN: Which side of the dock?
ROB HERMAN: All the way out to the seaward end-of the "T".
MRS. CULLEN: Plus 4 or 6 feet with the boat.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: That is right°
ROB HERMAN: We can shift the float and make an "L".
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Couldn't you move the structure, like Peter
suggested.
MRS. CULLEN: Well, you know my problem is that you have got a
channel there, not very wide. You have an island there, we have
a mooring out there and at low tide we have been told that we
are too close to the channel. Now you are putting a 46' dock
out. Which is going to restrict even more. I mean not. arguing
with his right to put a dock.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: No, your concerns are valid.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Rob, you where saying about an "L"?
ROB HERMAN: What I was saying was, what it is it is a "T". If we
shift it to the east and make an "L" with the "L" portion going
to the east then he can dock his boat on the in land side of the
float. That way the boat will not extend out any further than
the dock. It will also be further to the east.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: The problem is that I am not familiar, I looked
at it, but I am not familiar with where the channel is.
MR. CULLEN: I moor a 20' boat there. The channel goes like this.
At dead low tide it is sitting on the shelf. If you move the
dock to the east you are much better off.<
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: When I originally went out and looked at this I
spoke to Mr. Keely about the possibility of moving it to the
east. Because that was a concern. My impression was that that
would take care of it and if it was to the west that would be a
problem.
MRS. CULLEN: Are there any restriction as to the distance
between docks?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: The normally policy is that we like to keep the
structure 15' off the property line. However, in all cases it is
not always possible. In some cases like this it might even be
practical not to conform to that, if the neighbor to the east
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 7 MARCH 30, 1995
already has a dock in place. If we can move it say 3' from the
property line in order to make more room for everyone. If
everyone has their own space on the water, you are not going to
worry about the neighbors putting a dock in afterwards.
ROB HERMAN: We have to conform the 15' from all other agencies.
So we can ask for exceptions and we then would have all sorts of
conditions. If we can avoid that, it would be more pleasant.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: That is a problem with the DEC.
ROB HERMAN: Well, the Dept. of State especially.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I think there is more water as you go to the
east.
ROB HERMAN: O.K. You say lop 10' off, make everyone happy. Then
build a dock where...
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: He may be able to do that.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Sure. When I inspected I didn't know where the
channel was. I didn't see it being a problem. It might be better
to take a look at it again with soundings further to the east.
To see how far we can go.
ROB HERMAN: I spoke to him about this and he definitely does not
want to cause any problems.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Then why don't you back and take some
soundings and we will separate the two.
ROB HERMAN: I Just want to make sure that where we move it to is
not create another problem.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Why don't you bring in the neighbors and have
everybody discuss it and come out with a plain.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I don't think the neighbors to the east are
going to have a problem.
ROB HERMAN: Let me find out what the most we can do to change
that and if you would just table that part of the application.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Just give us something in writing.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: If you talk to the neighbors, you might
resolve this thing by next month.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone else who would like to speak.
STEVE LATSON: I am just questioning the bulkhead. I don't
understand why you are putting in another bulkhead. It is a more
natural looking area.., not good for shellfishing. You are going
to loose beach. If you want a retaining wall further up the
beach and have a lot of natural vegetation. I think that would
be a lot more conducive to the creek.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Steve, just a comment. In the past few months
we have tried to do that. We have move this one back. It used to
be 3 or 4' infront of where it is. We have moved it back.
Eventhough it is not in the description, Rob has agreed to do an
extensive planting with natural vegetation in front of that.
There will be a natural beach front. Our hope is to prevent that
from being a bulkhead, only being a retaining wall.
(Everyone talking at once)
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I think we have to go with what the zoning code
calls for (20' non-buffer).
ROB HERMAN: I don't know if we would have enough room to plant
high marsh vegetation. I need to now how many feet we need to
move the wall back to plant it properly.
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 8 MARCH 30, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: It seems to me that there is enough elevation
there.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: When we gave this a negative dec. I was under
the impression that it was under the condition that we further
compromise on this. I think the board is willing to compromise
on this and grant a retaining wall provided that you give us a
little more planting here and come back a little more. It think
that is the bottom line. Correct me if I am wrong.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I think that is the feeling of everybody. The
planting that Allan sent along does talk about beach grass at
the highest elevation... That is in the plan.
ROB HERMAN: I didn't think he came up with a specific plan like
that.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: He came up with a publication that will guide
you in developing a plan like that. That was his recommendation
to develope plan with those plantings in it.
ROB HERMAN: Are you telling me that you want us to go find out
how far we need to move back and then come back next month?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: No, I would like to meet with you in the field
and make a decision in the field based on everything we
discussed so far. I think there is a common here. I am not
clear on the grade here. A motion to recess the public hearing
in order to meet with everyone in the field.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: So moved.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Second. ALL AYES.
8:21 p.m. In the matter of En-Consultants Inc., on behalf of
CHRIST STRATAKIS requests a Wetland & coast Erosion Permit to
reconstruct an existing stairway and platform arrangement from
top of bluff to beach, and construct a 6' X 6' shed that will be
built adjacent to the stairs for storage. Located 800 Sound
Drive, Greenport. 33-4-5 Is there anyone here who would like to
speak in favor of this application?
ROB HERMAN: Very briefly. We would like it approved.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone against the application?
Does the board have any questions on this.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I looked at it. I don't have a problem with
it.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Do I have a motion to clo~e the hearing?
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: So moved.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: The CAC recommends approval with conditions of
that the disturb soil filled behind the seawall be re-vegetated
and the steps be 4' above the slope.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: So moved.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Second. ALL AYES.

of this application?
GLENN JUST: I am here on behalf of Mr. Micciche~ if there any
questions from the board.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak
against this application? Does the board have any questions for
Mr. Just?
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: The only comment I had was a vegetative
buffer along the side that goes right of the buffer. Make sure
he follows the Town Code. Non-turf buffer.
MR. JUST: As long as it is something that doesn't require
fertilizer?
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Right. I make a motion that we close the
hearing.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: So moved. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: I make a motion that we approve with a 20'
non-fertilized dependent, non-turf buffer.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES°
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: 8:25 p.m. - In the matter of J.M.O. Consulting

TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone against this application?
Board members? Who was present at the inspection?
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I was.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Peter and I was. Can you amend that to say
12'?
MR. JUST: I will put it on the regard right now that it will be
a maximum depth of 12'
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: With the associated amount of soil to be
removed.
MR. JUST: Yes.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: So we are all set on this?
TRUSTEES: Yes.
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 10 MARCH 30, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: A motion to close the hearing?
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: So moved.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: Second° ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: We and the CAC would like to see this.
TRUSTEE HOLZAPFEL: A motion to approve application for Louis
Bacon in regards to restoring the south pond. The deepest part
of the pond will be no more then 12' deep and the resulting
spoil will be dependent upon that.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
8:37 p.m. - In the matter of Proper-T Services on behalf of
RICHARD PRIETO requests a Wetland Permit to replace existing
dock by constructing a 3' X 39' fixed walkway, with a 3' X 6'
platforms and steps to beach, a 3' X 16' hinged ramp and a 6' X
20' floating dock and 2 single piles and one 2-pile dolphin to
secure floating dock, and 1-single pile as a storm pole. Located
2750 Minnehaha Blvd., Southold. SCTM 87-3-44
Is there anyone here who wishes to speak on behalf of this
application?
MR. FITZGERALD: I am here if there are any questions.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Can you tell us what the depth of water is at
the float on this project?
MR. FITZGERALD: 2' 8".
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: It is my impression that there is a sand bar or
a real shoal area between where the float is and the...
MR. FITZGERALD: Yes.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: It was frozen over when we where there. It is
shallow between the shore and the float. The area where the
fixed walkway is.
MR. FITZGERALD: At low water it is dry.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: That is my point. That is the only question I
have.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: A motion to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: So moved.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I will make a motion to approve the application
of RICHARD PRIETO to construct the above.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
8:42 p.m. In the matter of JOSEPH IAVARONE requests a Wetland
Permit to rebuild and extend an existing bulkhead out 18" with a
4 1/2' return, plus add on a 4' X 40' catwalk with a 2 1/2' X
12' ramp leading to a 10' X 20' float. Located 405 Wood Lane,
Peconic. 86-6-4. Is there anyone here who would like to speak in
favor of this application? Is there anyone here who wants to
speak against this application?
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: This is another one where there is very little
depth of water between where they are proposing to put the float
and the beach. I think the only other comment is to lower the
catwalk.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: The CAC recommend approval that it has returns
on both sides, have an engineer on the proper reinforcement so
it does not fail again. Maintain a buffer behind the bulkhead.
The Council approves the dock as submitted. I would suggest that
BOARD OF TRUSTEES 11 MARCH 30, 1995
we make the catwalk the standard 3' in width and make the float
6' wide. 10' seems like. o.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Don't we want to put a condition of 4' above
grade for this.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: If you look at this picture of the neighbor, I
