Southold Town Planning Board
5 April 5, 1999
Hearings Held Over From Previous Meetings:
Mr. Orlowski: I'm going to jump around a little bit now because these
hearings are scheduled at a certain time and we want to make sure
everybody shows up for those. We're going to move on to Hearings Held
Over From Previous Meetings
General Wayne Inn - This proposed amended site plan is for the expansion of
an existing kitchen with second floor storage on a 3.085 acre parcel, in
Southold. SCTM# 1000-89-3-1.1. The hearing is still open if anybody wants
to make a comment.
Frank Cieplinski: My name is Frank Cieplinski. I live at 720 Orchard Lane which
is directly behind the General Wayne Inn. On the 30th of March I sent a
letter to the Planning Board and I think a couple of other departments.
Since it's so close to today's meeting - I have some questions and concerns
- I would like to read that letter at this time.
The letter is addressed to the Planning Board, the Building Department, the
Health Department and the Zoning Board of Appeals and it concerns the
General Wayne Inn: It says, Dear Members: As residents of 720 Orchard Lane,
we continue to have great concern about what Mr. Rossi can do to run a
viable and profitable business at the General Wayne Inn. We would like to
thank the Planning Board for requiring a 15 foot wide evergreen buffer that
would restore the natural and noise barrier that Mr. Rossi had removed. In
regards to this buffer, we strongly urge that the Planning Board include a
provision that these evergreens must have a 90% survival rate after 5 years.
This will protect the neighbors from Mr. Rossi planting the evergreens and
then forgetting about maintaining them. We do not want to see brown or
dead evergreens because of the lack of proper care.
Our grave concerns still center around the use of the residential property.
And I emphasize the residential tract. Mr: Rossi has stated to a potential
customer that he could accommodate 450 people in the tent, restaurant
and bar. He stated that he could erect a 60xt00 ft. tent with windowed side
flaps, a wooden floor and indoor lighting that might include a chandelier.
These comments by Mr. Rossi leads to the following questions and concerns.
The first concern is the tent. Can a tent, to be used for business purposes,
be put on the residential tract? If a permit is required, can the tent remain
erected for the whole season? If so, won't this make the area look like the
circus has arrived in town? Mr. Rossi must remove the tent after each
occurrence if - and that word if is very big to me - if the Board permits this
Southold Town Planning Board
6 April 5, 1999
in a residential tract.
We can understand if someone wanted to putup a tent to have a wedding
reception on their own residential property: Obviously the tent would be up
only 3-4 days. We strongly feel that a business (in this case the General
Wayne Inn) should not be allowed to put up a tent on a residential tract to
accommodate a business. Continued use in this manner would eventually
lead to a change in zoning from a residential to business.
The second is parking. Can an overflow of cars from a business - the General
Wayne Inn - be permitted to park in a residential tract? Since Mr. Rossi has
parking space approvals for 44 cars, where can or will he park the overflow
of cars to accommodate 450 people?
The third is health issues. Mr. Rossi has approval to accommodate 188
people. We assume that the bathrooms and septic system have been
inspected and will accommodate these people. What additional facilities
must Mr. Rossi need to provide if he is to have the 450 people he claims he
can accommodate for a wedding?
When Mr. Rossi was asked about the heavy concentration of ticks and
mosquitoes in the immediate area, he stated that it would not be a problem;
he would spray the entire area. If so, what will this do to our well since it is
located 10-15 feet from the edge of the residential tract?
And the fourth and final category which is a catchall known as other,
excessive use of the residential tract will be detrimental to the surrounding
homes - not only noise, traffic and loss of privacy but also excessive wear
and tear to Orchard Lane - a private road now maintained by the Orchard
Lane residents. Perhaps the Town shOuld consider taking over the
maintenance of the road then if they are going to be using it.
We ask that these questions and concerns be addressed and answered by
the various Boards at the next Planning Board meeting, which is today. I'm
not quite sure which questions you can answer here tonight but I would
appreciate some of those. Thank you.
Mr. Orlowski: Any other comments?
Frank Lacari: I'm Frank Lacari. I'm a neighbor of the General Wayne Inn. I
have written a letter to you people and what will follow is an opportunity for
me to discuss the contents of that letter publicly and it will cover similar
grounds covered in my letter.
Scut:hold Town Planning Board
7 April 5; 1999
The General Wayne Inn people have indicated they have a C.O. for land and
as such they can expand the restaurant into residential property. Now, it's
my belief - as a matter of fact I've been (inaudible) with it so it's more than a
belief - a certificate of occupancy for land are no longer valid. They have
been rescinded, each and every one, including mine and others. Therefore,
the erection of tents, having large scale outdoor events where there are
needed lights and music, are not permitted except by obtaining a special
permit from the Building Department.
These permits are issued on a short time basis and on a limited scale, as
others are issued. For instance, if you have a yard sale, you get a permit,
you may have two yard sales a year, that's the extent of your involvement
with yard sales on residential property.
Now I can accept Mr. Rossi being permitted to erect a tent for an instance
where he is having a party for the marriage of a daughter. I hope he doesn't
have too many. But what is not acceptable is using this median to
supplement the activities of the General Wayne Inn, providing an expansion
in this manner and thus circumventing the restrictions of the zoning laws.
The residential portion of the General Wayne Inn properties must be
constrained to the same categories and limitations that other residential
properties must observe.
On another point, recently the Suffolk County Water Authority graded and
paved Orchard Lane with stone. Grass surfaces on either side of that stone
area were carefully raked and seeded. The tractors, backhoes and trucks
employed in the removal of trees on the General Wayne Inn property have
ruined a portion of the road. Literally ruined it. We're worse off than we've
ever been and a lot of the grass sections that were carefully seeded have
deep ruts and ridges in them.
Now, maintenance of this private road is paid for by all the people that use
it. In the past, General Wayne Inn never contributed a dime, by the way.
But anyway, now it needs another re-grading and we have to face that
expense. It's just too bad that after Suffolk County Water Authority did a
decent jOb and we got a decent road, at this stage of the game it's been
ruined: Thank you.
Mr. Orlowski: Any other comments?
Alexander Williams: Mr. Chairman, my name is Alexander Williams. I live at
425 Cedar Point Drive East, which is in the Cedar Beach community. I am
also president of the Cedar Beach Park Association and will emPhasize that
Soul:hold Town Planning Board
8 April 5, 1999
I'm here tonight speaking today as an individual and not on behalf of the
association in total. My concern is that - first of all let me say that I think
that there is no question in my mind as to the right of Mr. Rossi to conduct
his business at the General Wayne Inn. The General Wayne Inn has been
there for a long, long time. I can even remember when it was once called
the Cedar Beach Inn years ago and it was a quiet family owned business.
There's no question that he has a right to conduct that business there. On
the other hand there is no question that all of the people who live in that
community have the right to quiet enjoyment of their homes. And my
particular concern is that the scale in which apparently Mr. Rossi intends to
operate this business is so much greater than was ever done before in that
facility, as to completely change both the nature of the business and
perhaps change the nature of that community altogether.
I would urge that this Planning Board take into account not only the absolute
right to conduct the business, but what the nature of that business is going
to be, how different it is going to be from the way businesses were
conducted there in the past, and what the impact is going to be on a
community that is significantly denser than it used to be. There are major
problems here potentially of noise, major problems of traffic, major
problems of use of tents and so forth which will - if the business is
successful, and we wish Mr. Rossi well - but nevertheless, that we're talking
here about a scale that I don't believe that that little community down there
can appropriately handle and still allow the residents to quiet enjoyment of
their homes.
So I would urge, Mr. Chairman, that this Planning Board look at this entire
proposal, not only in terms of the specifics of loud speakers and lights and
noise buffers, but also in terms of the total impact that a business of this
scale will have on a piece of land and on a business that was never designed
for something of that scale. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Orlowski: Thank you. Any other comments?
Joe Lizewski: Mr. Chairman, I think that Mr. Rossi's problem is sort of unique
to us because first of all I don't understand how the intensity of use which
brought into the site plan, was determined by the improvement of his
Kitchen without enlarging his 13uitding. The other thing is that a lot of the
things that are being said still are basically very presumptuous that these
things may happen. Certainly the building is regulated by code, how many
people can be in it. It is the purview of the Town Board to pass a noise
ordinance and unfortunately you really can't do very much with that
Southold Town Planning Board
9 April 5, 1999
because there is no noise ordinance. The Building Department has to deal
with tents and we do have a lot of tents in this Town. I know that hospice
has asked to use some tents for use for a party for the vineyard, and they're
constantly being used. It's one of those things that the Building Department
determines. And they are used on agricultural property and they are used
on domestic property as we know for communions and confirmations and
Easter and whatever. And people do get allowed to do that.
So, I think Mr. Rossi is in this position because somewhere along the way -
and I don't know where it's written - that the intensity of use change when
he decided to build a kitchen, was decided that that'was intensity of use to
change the kitchen which was once on locust posts to a workable kitchen. It
certainly didn't change how many people he was going to have there, that,s
still there. It didn't change his parking. It didn't change anything really as
far as how many people he was legally allowed to have.
So I don't know why having the purview of this whole idea of the change of
what he's doing here...in yesteryear it just went before the Building
Department. Now, I do admit that the shrubbery that he cut down probably
would have ended up back in Planning Board, but the reason for him being
here is to get a building permit to improve that kitchen and the rest of these
things that we're fighting over and people are arguing over are still things
that either they're in the code or they're not in the code and the man has
limitations just by the property that he has.
And no matter what anybody says, anybody would have to go through a
certain procedure to put up a tent or have an outdoor event. And they
have yet to be proven that this is really going to happen. I qooe Mr. Rossi
has plenty of these events, but I'll tel you he's not the only game in town
and he's going to have to compete with other people who do the same
events - the American Legion, the Knights of Columbus - there's plenty of
them around that compete for the Kind of business that he's going to want
with weddings, etc. and we've had a whole slew of them come to the east
end as you know. To stop Mr. Rossi from getting a building permit to
continue with this work for this kitchen, think is a shame.
These other things, you're limited as a Planning Board as to what you can do
I~ecause they're not in your purview. Your purview is basically screening and
parking and the drainage and unfortunately I think that some of these issues
are to be taken before the Town Board to change laws to accommodate
some of the things that these people may have a right to or to complain
about. I think we ought to let Mr. Rossi have his kitchen permit at least and
stop holding him up with spending thousands and thousands of dollars
Southold Town Planning Board
10 AprilS, 1999
because that's not going to change the intensity of use and that's really
what he really needs to get going. Thank you.
Mr. Orlowski: Any other comments?
Richard Pellicane: My name is Richard Pellicane. I appear on behalf of the
applicant. The application here is just to extend a kitchen outside of the
building and it's very, very important that we get site plan approval so that
building permits can be issued so that Mr. Rossi can be in business for the
summer season. The first three speakers who came up, were talking about
something completely different on the assumption that there would be an
abuse of this land by the Rossi operation with large tents, bands,
loudspeakers and so on. That's not going to happen. And if it does happen,
as we've discussed, that would come under the purview of the Building
Department, the police and so on.
Mr: Rossi has given this Board everything reasonable that the Board has
asked for on the site plan and I urge you to approve that tonight so that he
can get into business. Thank you.
Mr. Orlowski: Anyone else?
Bob Oazza: Good evening. I'm Bob Gazza, I live on Cedar Beach Road and I
just wanted to address a couple of things that were said tonight. It appears
to me that some of the objections that some of the residents have were
brought about because it appears there is more than just a kitchen
expansion involved here. I understand that Mr. Rossi mentioned a container
to store a large party tent or something, and he also mentioned outdoor
music. I think that that's what probably propagated many of the concerns
of the residents. I think the Board really should look at that. Thank you.
(Change tape)
Mr. Orlowski: Any other comments? Hearing none, I'll entertain a motion to
close the hearing.
Mr. Cremers: So moved.
Mr. Latham: Second.
Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. All those in favor?
Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Latham, Mr. Cremers.
Southold
Town Planning Board 11 April 5, 1999
Mr. Orlowski: Opposed? Motion carried. Sometimes it gets a little confusing
when you get into this site plan process: There are a lot of things that
initiate it and in this case it was the extension of a building. The building
happened to be a kitchen, but also another problem that occurred and I
guess we've all seen it was the clearing of the natural buffer. And that
probably caused more problems than anybody thought.
Other things that were brought up here about catering and tents and all that
is addressed by the Building Department at a later date and not by this
Board right now. This Board looks at the site plan, the parking, the ingress
and egress, the lighting and the buffering. Mr. Rossi had done about
everything we've asked for; has taken out the storage trailer that everybody
was concerned about, has agreed to do the buffering. The lighting is OK and
the parking is OK. The Building Department says the use is OK. Everything is
in order now for approval. That's what this Board can do. Anything that
happens from this point on is strictly up to the Building Department.
I'm going to make a motion that the Southold Town Planning Board acting
under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (Part 617) makes a
determination that this project is a Type II action and not subject to revision
of the State Environmental Quality Review Act.
Mr. Cremers: Second the motion.

Mr. Orlowski: Hay Harbor Club - This proposed site plan is for the
demolition of an existing 5,012 square foot golf club house and the
construction of a 6,272 square foot golf club house on a 37.3 acre
parcel on Fishers Island. SCTM# 1000-9-12-8.1.
Patricia Moore: This is Sandy Esser who is the design professional and Dick
Duggin who is the manager of the club. A couple of things I want to do
before I start. I have the green cards, the return receipts and the affidavit of
posting, for your records.
I understand an issue came up as to the SEQRA review on this project and I
want to just state my position on this and I apologize if you've already made
the decision to call it an unlisted action, Negative Declaration. Maybe you
can advise me of that, otherwise I'll go into what...
Mr, Orlowski: Well, we're ready to go into the coordination process as an
unlisted action.
Ms. Moore: OK, just with regard to the SEQRA review then, I'll point out that
you are the only agency left. The Zoning Board has already granted us
Southold
Town Planning Board 20 April 5, 1999
approval. The Health Department has granted us approval. We even have a
SPEDES permit for the Sanitation System that the DEC issues through the
Health Department. That's it. You're the last remaining agency and with all
due deference, you can make it an uncoordinated review because there is
no other purpose. There are no other agencies which will involve any
recommendations to the Planning Board.
As I reviewed the SEQRA regulations, I also noted that specifically listed in
Type II as Type II actions are actions which are reconstructions, replacement,
rehabilitation or reconstruction of a structure or facility in kind. What I did is,
I took for your records, this was way back when we were before the Zoning
Board and you can tell by the discoloration, this is the site plan, this is the
existing building where the orange line appears, and this is the additional
building.
So, when we actually compared square footages, the difference in footprint
square footage is 300 square feet. Total building between the new building
and the old building, there is a difference of 1,000 square feet. And the
square footage difference is based on specifically what the SEQRA law
addresses. It's in order to bring the building into handicapped accessibility,
fire, building code requirements. So, it seems more in line with a Type II
action specifically listed under the Type II listed exceptions. So, I believe that
this Board would have to go no further than to declare it a Type II action and
proceed and make a decision.
Certainly it's not a Type 1 action. Again, if you look at the Type II list with
regard to a commercial structure, I think that the Board may have quickly
determined it wasn't a Type II Igecause of the 4,000 square foot criteria and
that provision which is 617.57 is construction or expansion of a non-
residential structure involving less than 4,000 square feet.
But that's not determative because you were rewewing this project with
regard to 617.52, which is the replacement, rehabilitation, reconstruction.
And then also it ties in the threshold of the Type I list. It specifically
addresses this type of situation. So, think that to start the SEQRA process
certainly at this very late stage and call it a coordinated action as an
unlisted...and coordinate the action before you make a decision and delay
the process, when we have no other agencies and it seems to fit the criteria
of a Type II list, seems like a delay that's unnecessary in this case. So that's
my point with regard to the SEQRA determination (change tape)
I have here from the Architectural Review Board, which did come back with a
recommendation on this project, actually a very telltale description. You and
Southold Town Planning Board
21 April 5, 1999
I are n equal positions, we visit Fishers Island - have the privilege and honor
of visiting Fishers Island - don't live there on a regular basis. So we have
here photographs that were taken of the adjacent homes and also
comparable structures - one is specifically adjacent to the main clubhouse,
that one's identified - otherwise all the others seem to be adjacent to the
actual green And some really wonderful pictures, think...Sandy are you the
one who took them?
Sandy: Actually our contractor took them.
Ms. Moore: Very good pictures, and it shows the s~ze and companson of this
golf club house in comparison to the existing homes and honestly when you
ook at the existing homes, any one of them could be a larger club than what
the club house is being proposed...the reconstructed clubhouse I' give
those photographs [o you.
With regard to this site plan, certainly the Zoning Board, we went through
very extensive review of this project, through the special permit process and
the area vanance applications, we have an existing setback of d foot. The
proposed Puilding is being straightened out, but it's at 3 feet. So, again,
consistent with the SEQRA review, it's essentially in kind and place. The
sideyard existing is 32 feet and we've actually increased the sideyard to 23
feet That's according to dimensions provided by Chandler, Palmer and King.
I'll provide that to you.
I know that there was a letter that went out, or a recommendation from
Jamie Richter that I discussed with Chandler, Palmer and King, Dick Strauss,
this morning: There ~s no drainage catch basin for the roof presently. The
Town Engineer looks at a structure and says, wel any additiona construction
that is addition to the building would necessitate drainage, lout the
additional construction is 300 square feet. What we are proposing to do is
actually provide a catchbasin, a leader system...if I'm describing it properly
Sandy - a leader to a french drain or other type of drainage structure to
cover all the roof runoff that would generate from this building. So really
that is the only non-pervious material that we're talking about here. There is
no other. The building is the roof and the rest of the area is a golf course.
According to the Town Engineer, that should be satisfactory.
We can provide the details of that. Dick Strauss will just add that to your
drawings or put it by way of a letter. He and the Town Engineer seem to
Dave come to an agreement as to what was needed and they have no
problem with it.
Southold Town Planning Board 22 April 5, 1999
Mr. Orlowski: OK, Mr. Edwards, who is not with us tonight is from Fishers
Island and he has asked us to keep the hearing open because he feels that
there are people there that want to make a comment and won't have
enough time to do so. He's not here tonight. I understand that
construction is not going to start until the fall anyway, September or
something like that I was told?
Sandy Aster: Can I comment on that a little bit?
Mr. Orlowski: Yes.
Ms. Aster: I traveled three hours to get here tonight from work in Manhattan
and Mr. Edwards, whom I respect and like very much, had every opportunity
to get here tonight. I've been working on this project for three years. Three
years. I have a full time job. I would really request that the Board make a
determination. I cannot come here anymore. I have two children at home.
I work full time. This is a volunteer job for me. It's very difficult for me to
get here again.
Mr. Orlowski: Well, Mr. Edwards is not here but he has sent him comments in
as you could have done also and Mr. Edwards said there are some people
over there...
Ms. Esser: They had their 10 day notice, they had the notice posted. They
had every opportunity to comment. And they've had three years to
comment.
Mr. Orlowski: I know, but I think it would be fair to keep it open. Are you
going to start construction right away?
Ms. Aster: That's not the point. We have to go to bid and the construction
process on Fishers Island is lengthy and busy and we have a very limited pool
of qualified contractors with whom to work with.
Mr. Orlowski: OK.
Ms. Moore: I also asked Sandy to be here to address any questions that the
Board may have with regard to the building and the site. As she points out
she did come a long way. We've been at this for a very long time and
certainly given Fishers Island residents ample opportunity to comment every
step of the way.
Mr. Orlowski: Well, it's OK. I know that you've come a long way and most of
Southold Town Planning Board
25 April5,1999
the people on Fishers Island come a long way just to getto Fishers Island.
Mr. Edwards has requested it. I think we're pretty close...as far as we can
see we have everything that we need and the parking, that we can see. If
there are other comments, Mr. Edwards would like to keep it open so
somebody can make those, in regard to SEQRA, I think we can do a Negative
Declaration. I'll do that resolution right now. I's like to make a motion that
the Southold Town Planning Board, acting under the State Environmental
Quality Review Act, do an uncoordinated review of this unlisted action. The
Planning Board established itself as lead agency and as lead agency makes a
determination of non-significance and grants a Negative Declaration.
Mr. Cremers: Second the motion.
Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. All those in favor?
Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Latham, Mr. Cremers.
Mr. Orlowski: Opposed? Motion carried. Now the other issue on the
drainage, we haven't had a chance to talk with Jamie about it. We knew that
came up and we're not sure what that is about, but I don' think that's a big
deal either.
Ms. Moore: It shouldn't present a problem. You referred it to Jamie as a
matter of course and he noticed that there was no drainage shown on the
site plan because we're talking about a large house, that's the equivalent of
a large house. So, rather than argue the point, we said fine we'll just supply
the drainage for the roof runoff.
Mr. Orlowski: OK, I'm going to entertain a motion now to keep this hearing
open.
Ms. Moore: Can we put a limit on the time frame for...
Mr. Orlowski: Our next meeting is May 3rd, but there may be another
meeting in between that because we had to push this one up a little bit, so
there may be one in between that and I think Mr. Edwards will be back by
then.
Ms. Moore: With all due respect, would it be possible if Mr. Edwards has a
comment that he wants to put in writing, maybe rather than have it
as...certainly I don't think it's fair for them to come all this way for Mr.
Edwards to ask one or two questions. Any questions that he has maybe he
could put it in writing...
Southold Town Planning Board 24 April 5, 1999
Mr. Orlowski: It isn't, per se, Mr. Edwards. Mr. Edwards says there may be
people that want to send in comments and he'd like to keep the hearing
open for that.
Ms. Moore: Just for written comments?
Mr. Orlowski: For written comments.
Ms. Moore: OK.
Mr. Orlowski: But we're going to keep the hearing open and entertain those
comments and then close it and make a decision then.
Unknown: Is there anyway you can avoid meeting April 19?
Mr. Orlowski: OK. I don't know if you have to be here.
Unknown: I came from Rhode Island to be here tonight,
Ms. Moore: If you do get written comments, if that could be forwarded to
me that way we can respond without having undue delay through this
process.
Mr. Orlowski: OK
Ms. Moore: Anything else you have?
Mr. Orlowski: No, that will do it. You got your Negative Declaration,
Ms. Moore: Thank you, that's good.
Mr. Orlowski: I'll entertain a motion to hold this hearing open until the next
meeting, and we don't have a date for that.
Mr. Cremers: So moved.
Mr. Latham: Second,
Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. All those in favor?
Ayes: Mr. Orlowski, Mr. Latham, Mr. Cremers.
Mr. Orlowski: Opposed? Motion carried.
