Re: Airports study for the town. John Wickhem, Ch.,irmGn An airport study is required as part of a "701" project. A site should be selected and some preparations made including topography surveys, preliminary maps, possible cost estimated, etc. for the records. It is not mandatory to make the installation at this time. Mr. May will write a section for the scope of studies to meet these requirements. We, (The Town of southold), will be the first community to get funds for this study. This section should be ready and complete by the middle of April. John Wickham: The county has spent $75,000 with Spelman Associates on airport studies, and has alot of material on the Town of Southold. I think we should use this. Mr. May: We don't need to cover this area - only re-evaluate it and continue from there up to date, and add recommended con- trolls of the area around the proposed site - such as heights of buildings, clear guide paths, and approaches etc. - and a study of the economic impact on the base of the community. I hope the Spelman Report has a traffic study and a cost estimate with a proposal on method of financing construction together with a highway access study. Supervisor Lester Albertson: We have a copy of most of the Spelman Reports, and most of these items are covered. . page 3- . John Diffigos read the paragraph on Federal requirements for airport studies item by item, and then discussed the meeting with Dr. Metz of Cornell University held at noon today in New York. They will itemize all cost to select the ones that are eligible for Federal money assistance - some are, and some are not. John Wickham: We have specified the amount of housing studies to be made, there will be about 60 for the village, and about 300 for the town. Mr. May and Mr Diffigos: Most towns and villages need some urban renewal work in some part of their area, so they must have these studies in preparation, or they will have to duplicate them later on for a urban renewal program. We must consider the possibility of incorporation of the present hamlets at some time in the future, and he prepared for future rebuilding. We would need about 300 surveys of sub-standard housing. Supervisor Lester M. Albertson: HOW much more will this cost? Mr. May: We don't.know yet, we are waiting for the Cornell estimates. John Wickham: Cornell can do some of these studies much cheaper than Raymond and May, the figures quoted so far are not accurate. There was a general discussion on the type of houses included in the study. Mr. May: We must include a migrant study to qualify for the Federal money. Mr. Diffigos: This will be part of the study - not a special or separate study - we can use available data, and I understand there is considerable available. Mr. present. May distributed copies of his revised proposal to all (Copy attached to these minutes in file). . . . - Page 4 - Mr. Diffigos went through the proposals item by item and reviewed each. Changes were made on the following: Page 4 "G"; Page 5 "B-2" add a,b,c,; page 6 add item 5 for airport plan; add "H" Section 1, top of page 4 - planning standards; and a condensed progress report at the end of one year. Page 7 "E" include estimate cost and method of financing capital improvements - both Town and village - together with controlls for private development. Page 8 to rewrite two paragraphs following A2-B subdivision regulations. Page 9 add cost of airport study and Cornell costs that are not eligible for Federal Funds. The estimated final cost is now $35,050 plus the two extra items for the town, add $16,200 for the village. Both will share the additional administrative cost ($5,893 plus $421 - over 24 months. Administrative cost of Cornell and water study shall be $421 added to the town.) There was a general discussion on the terminology of the contract and parts of the water study - particularly on the lab tests and the Fishers Island water supply. It was decided to do lab tests on all of Fishers Island water supply, as well as the balance of the Town. Mr. May: The next step, I will review my proposals as set forth tonight and reword the Cornell and pirine proposal to coincide completely. We will be ready by Mid-May with the "package" - all costs, etc. final and the formal application ready to sign and submit. Mr. Diffigos: The state will be "banker" and pay all vouches as work progresses and is accepted - the various plans must be complete in all aspects. The Town must underwrite costs of Cornell and Pirini studies over and above the parts eligible for Federal Funds. There was further discussion on the fine points of qualifications to use "701" funds and tie in all parts to the overall plan. Mr. Diffigos: We don't need another joint meeting on this. We will have a meeting of the heads of the various departments in New York sometime in May, when the final contracts are ready, and the application is ready to sign. The agreement on apportioning of cost should be done by May 1, so that everyone knows how much it will be. We will require affidavits of availability of funds at the time of contract signing. The actual signing will probably take place early in fall. I will notify all of time and place for the next meeting - probably in New York in May. ..I. / , ' ~____ Meeting adjourned 10: 05 P.M. /!(1(v{.( 1(( ((2//1 i.
