B~ard of Trustees 3 December 20, 1990
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 AND AN AFFIDAVIT OF PUBLICATION FROM THE LONG
ISLAND TRAVELER-MATTITUCK WATCHMAN. 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
7:32 P.M. - In the matter of the application of J.M.O.
Consulting on behalf of PATRICK W. LOHN requests a permit to
dredge an existing 16' X 20' bulkheaded boat basin to a depth
of 3' of MLW. Resultant spoil approximately 23 c.y. of sand
shall be trucked to an upland site for disposal. Located at
2335 Minnehaha Blvd., Southold, on Corey Creek.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: Is there anyone here who wishes to speak on
behalf of this application? Anyone here who wishes to speak
against this application? Comments of the CAC; I see none
received, although I thought I have seen prior comments. They
didn't have a problem with it.
JOHN HOLZAPFEL: Yea, we didn't have a problem.
TRUSTEES BREDEMEYER: O.K. Comments of the Board? There being no
comments, I take a motion to close the hearing in the matter of
J.M.O. for Patrick Lohn.
TRUSTEE TUTHILL: So moved.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Second.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: All in favor? ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I make a motion to approve the application.
TRUSTEE BEDNOSKI: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER:
7:35 P.M. - In the matter of the application of Land Use Company
on behalf of Torsten Johnson to construct a single-family
dwelling a minimum 75' landward of the tidal wetland boundary
and install a sanitary system greater than 100' from the tidal
wetland boundary as per survey of October 23, 1990. Located at
Cedar Point Drive, East, Southold, fronting Pleasant Inlet,
Cedar Beach Harbor.
Is there anyone who wishes to speak on behalf of this
application?
Chuck Bowman: Representing Torsten Johnson. It is a pretty
straight forward application. If you have any question, I will
be happy to answer them.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I don't believe the application showed much of
a landscaping plan, did it? In that 75' area of our
jurisdiction.
CHUCK BOWMAN: No, but they would certainly be willing to
maintain the natural vegetation there. I don't think it should
be landscaped there. It is pretty heavily vegetated now. If the
Board would see fit to pose a buffer area restriction, it would
be very reasonable.
Board of Trustees 4 December 20, 1990
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: O.K. John Holzapfel, we didn't see
comments here on this. Have you seen this one after we had the
re-survey and we gave you the new survey on it?
JOHN HOLZAPFEL: I don't think we did.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: We had been out on it and taped it. We
found the dwelling located at the 75' mark. We felt that we
would want to go ahead with the permitting to possibly discuss
buffering.
CHUCK BOWMAN: His house and the property is in such a sensitive
area it should be permitted.
TRUSTEES KRUPSKI: It is on filled land?
CHUCK BOWMAN: That is correct.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Just out of curiosity, what is the elevation
there? What will be the first floor elevation as compared to
the existing grade?
CHUCK BOWMAN: Well, the first floor is going to have to be flood
plain. What ever that is. The architects are working on that.
Probably nine feet.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: O.K.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: That would be, what, based on sea level down?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Yea.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: How did they make out with fresh water?
CHUCK BOWMAN: Yes. Winds Way Building Corp. did the house
adjacent to it. Which is all part one of a minor subdivision
they had to put their well on the road/right-of-way and I would
imagine that that is where this is going to go too.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: Are there any more questions for Mr.
Bowman? Is there anyone here who also wants to speak on behalf
of the application?
MR. MICHELL: I thought the lawyers for the buyer...I thought
someone was contemplating buying this property.
CHUCK BOWMAN: That is correct. It is being sold.
MR. MICHELL: I am speaking as President of the Association
now. Before you can put the well in the road you have to get
some permission for the easement...
CHUCK BOWMAN: I think that is very reasonable.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: That is not properly with this Board, but
would be with the Health Department and their approval process.
Is there anyone who has additional comments in favor of the
application? There being none in addition in favor, is there
anyone here to speak against the application? Hearing no
comments, Board members? There being none, I take a motion to...
TRUSTEE SMITH: When we talked about that we were going to
maintain that 50' buffer.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: As discussed in the field the interest of
the Board was for a 50' buffer. There being no additional
comments in this matter I will take a motion to close the public
hearing.
TRUSTEE SMITH: So moved.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Second. ALL AYES.
After further discussion a motion was made by HENRY SMITH and
seconded by ALBERT KRUPSKI to approve subject to a 50' buffer
and there shall be no grass type lawn and that the vegetation
B6ard of Trustees 5 December 20, 1990
will be kept in the natural state of vegetation that is in the
area already.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Second. ALL AYES. Trustee Tuthill
absent.
7:42 P.M. - In the matter of the application of J.M.O.
Consulting on behalf of CHRISTABEL VARTANIAN requests a
permit to construct, landward of a stone seawall, a
single-family dwelling which shall be located approximately 52'
landward of MHW and sanitary system which shall be approximately
80' landward of MHW. Located at Peninsula Road, Fishers Island,
fronting West Harbor.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: Is there anyone here who wishes to speak on
behalf of this application? This application was inspected by
myself this spring and by John Tuthill this fall. It has a DEC
Permit that was issued on 7/31/90.
It is a relatively small lot with little other alternative.
John Tuthill if you recall asked if that we merge the
properties. I had done a search in the tax office. They are
actually in two different owners. It appeared at first that it
was one owner of two lots. They are single and separate. It is
behind a sea wall and it is not going to impact it. We might
want to request a haybale during construction. I think the DEC
already requires.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I am familiar with that and I have seen the
pictures.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: Anyone who wishes to speak against this
application? I will take a motion to close this hearing, since
there are no further comments. I make a motion to approve this
application subject to a filter cloth or haybale barrier to
prevent material and erosion from entering the water way,
containment of all roof runoff and driveway runoff in drywells.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Second. ALL AYES. Trustee Tuthill absent.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: The next public hearing is in the matter of
Salvator Caradonna on behalf of JOHN MILAZZO request a
permit to construct a second story addition to an existing
residence located at 9 Island View Lane, Greenport. We have some
information here from the Zoning Board of Appeals to which I
have not had a chance to read and the Board might be interested
in. It is to the Trustees from Jerry Goehringer ZBA
Chairman. Dated today, December 20, 1990. In reference to the
application John Milazzo. "It is our understanding that the
Trustees will be considering an application for a second-story
addition to an existing footprint, which may be a different plan
than that filed with our office.
For your convenience we are furnishing a reduced copy of the
print, as amended December 7, 1990, showing construction
different from the existing location and driveway, proposed
decks, removal of trees, etc.
As of this date, the Z.B.A. hearing has been concluded and a
decision is expected to be rendered in January.
Also attached is a copy of an evaluation report requested by our
office from the Soil & Water Conservation District of Suffolk
Board of Trustees 6 December 20, 1990
County, and the applicant's proposed measures to mitigate
problem areas, for your file."
There is a lengthy report from the Soil Conservation. Unless
there is someone here to speak for this application, I think we
should dispense with reading this and reviewing it now and a
copy be distributed to the members of the Board. Maybe we
should do another field inspection here. There is apparently a
duel track for this application. It is tracking one way through
one Town agency and another way through the Trustees. I don't
think a public hearing is the place to sort it out.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I agree.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: Is there anyone here to speak of this
application?
GEORGE BALDWIN: I am George Baldwin of 1045 Island View Lane. I
am the neighbor to the north. I just wanted to be sure that the
Board was aware of the process pending now before the Zoning
Board of Appeals.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: I think that it would be best to table this
for practical matters and review. If for some reason they
receive a Z.B.A. approval in time before another meeting. I
would say that the Trustees would have to give consideration to
either voiding this application or suspending it and/or
requesting the applicant to re-submit what they received an
approval from the ZBA. We can't be shopping with apples and
oranges.
A motion to recess this hearing?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: So moved.
TRUSTEE BEDNOSKI: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: A motion to table action in this matter
until the board concludes another field inspection.
TRUSTEE BEDNOSKI: So moved.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: Next hearing is in the matter of
En-Consultants on behalf of ADRIAN MCCALL request permit to
replace (within 18") 43 1.f. of existing timber bulkhead.
Located at 10230 New Suffolk Avenue, Cutchogue. Adjacent to
Downs Creek. Is there anyone here who wishes to speak on behalf
of this application? Is there anyone here who wishes to speak
against this application? Hearing none, I take a motion to
close.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: So moved.
TRUSTEE SMITH: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I make a motion that we approve the application.
TRUSTEE BEDNOSKI: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE BREDEMEYER: A motion to go back on the regular agenda?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: So moved.
TRUSTEE SMITH: Second. ALL AYES.
