Davis' report NO. 491, regarding the improvements required on the access road within the minor subdivision of Richard A. Foster located at Peconic. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mullen, Latham, Ward, Edwards Friedman and Adelman - The Board reviewed this proposal for 21 lots on 46 acres at Alvah's Lane and Oregon Road, Cutchogue. This proposal is in the cluster concept. It was the consensus fo the Board to conduct a field inspection of the premises prior to any further recommendations or action. It was also noted that the cluster computations allow for 20 lots and 21 lots are proposed. Also, it is not known if the LILCO easement has been deducted from the total gross area pursuant to §100-136 A(1) of the Town Code. Mr. Paul Caminiti was present to discuss'the minor subdivision of Salvator Catapano located at Main Road, Southold. The Board had requested that Mr. Caminiti schedule an appointment to discuss the applicant's intentions with regard to the proposed lots. Mr. Caminiti stated that the Church of the Open Door was negotiating with Mr. Staller to purchase the subject 23 acres. However, negotiations fell through. Then, Mr. Catapano purchased the property and came to the Church to discuss the possiblity of selling five acres of the property to the Church. Mr. Caminiti stated that the Church then entered into a contract to purchase the five acres of land to build a church and at the present time, the Church is contract vendees on the five acre proposed lot. The purchase of this lot is subject to subdivision approval by the Planning Board and a special exception by the Board of Appeals. Mr. Catapano's intended purpose is for greenhouses, which are already under construction, as well as a private residence on Lot No.1. Lot No. 2 is contemplated for his daughter and Lot No. 3 will be a church and Lot No. 4 will be a nursery. Due to the growing season of the flowers, the greenhouses had to be costructed prior tothe frost and the appllicant had received all the necessary approvals to build the greenhouses so the flowers could be brought in. In Lot No. 1, he was entitled to build one house anyway, therefore, he built the house in conjunction with the business on the whole 23 acres as it is existing. Mr. Caminiti pointed out that all the construction is conforming to the proposed subdivision. The nurseries would be wholesale and retail, the applicant is currently a greenhouse grower on the West End, and-he proposed to cover the whole area of proposed Lot No. 4 with greenhouses. It was noted that there was some confusion over the construction and whether or not it was legal. Mr. Caminiti noted that permits Planning Board Page 4 3/24/86 had been received on all the construction. Mr. Caminiti, who also represents the Church presented a detailed plan for the Church for the Board to review. It was noted that an application had been made to the Board of Appeals for the Church since a Church was permitted in a Agricultural-Residential Zone with aspecial exception. The Chairman questioned further subdivision and Mr. Caminiti stated that there would be no further subdivision on Lot No. 4. Mr. Catapano, who was also present, stated that he would like to leave the nursery to his son, when he retires and there are no plans to further subdivide the property. His intention is to develop the property into a green house operation. The Board noted that even though the property is residential- agricultural, he can sell whatever he grows. Mr. Caminiti questioned if he could submit a preliminary site plan at this time for the Church. Mr. Orlowski stated that a site plan could be submitted, however, no action could be taken until a special exception is granted. Mr. Caminiti further explained that the greehouses were started simply because Mr. Catapano had a business in the West End which he is divesting himself of the business interest in to establish himself here is Southold. It was strictly time element that required him to construct the greenhouses prior to finalizing the subdivision, however, all the approvals were received since the use is permitted onthe property even without the subdivision. Mr. Catapano told the Board that he had supplied flowers to the World's Fair, Park Avenue, and the White House. It was noted that the permits were issued based on the fact that the 23 acres is one piece of property and it can sustain all the uses. However, the clarification was needed when the subdivision proposal was presented along with the construction. Merle Wiqgin was present for a presubmission conference to discuss the site plan for Port of Egypt Marina located at Southold This proposal was for relocation of existing fuel tanks. Mr. Wiggin explained that the Board of Health is requiring the tanks to be re-installed to meet ARticle 12 of the County Health Code. The plans had been reviewed by the Health Department and approved. However, the Health Department approval had not been received. The Department of Environmental Conservation approval had been received and Mr. Wiggin presented a copy to the Planning Board. THis site plan will also require Board of Appeals and an application had been made and was pending. A special exception is needed because it is a marina in a C zone and the fuel tanks will be relocated on the marina property. A marina requires a special exception in the C zone. The Board questioned the Board of Health approval. Mr. Wiggin stated that he has verbal approval for the project from the County Board of Health however he had nothing in writing. The Health Department had inspected the location and it was acceptable to them. Also, the tanks had been inspected in 1985. An approval had also been recieved from the Town Board for a waiver from the moratorium. The tanks will be above ground and there will be a containment structure also constructed. The Board of Appeals had scheduled this for April 3, 1986. The applicants were anxious to proceed Planning Board Page 5 3/24/86 with the project so it would be in place for the summer season. Mr. Wiggin stated that Mr. Hindermann of the Building Department had reviewed this and there were no problems other than the special exception requirement. On a motion made by Mr. Ward, seconded by Mr.Latham, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Baord refer the site plan of Port of Egypt Marine for the relocation and installation of existing fuel tanks to the Building Department for certification subejct to: (Plan dated as amended 5/29/85) 1. Receipt of corresopndence from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services approve the relocation and installation of the tanks. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mullen, Latham, Ward, Edwards The following new proposals have been set for a~fietd inspection: 1. John and Gloria Shirvell set-off of 22,204 square feet from 43,984 square feet located at Pine Tree and Billard Roads, Cutchogue. Mr. Shirvell was present. The Board advised Mr. Shirvell to see Mr. Lessard regarding an application to the Board of Appeals since the project proposed lots under the minimum zoning requirement. 2. Robert Johnsen, subdivision to be known as "Beachwood Acres"- This proposal is for 4 lots on 7.1 acres at Soundview Avenue Southold. One of the lots proposed will require an area varaince. 3. Joseph and Agnes Cassidy - set-off of 58,484 square feet from 2.624 acres at Reydon Drive, Southold. Mr. Cassidy was present for this discussion. He stated that the lots were originally One and one lot was described out by deed illegally. There is currently one house on the parcel. 4. John Sgrouros - set-off of 20,210 square feet from 42, 148 squre feet at Stars Road, East Marion. These lots were on the filed map of Stars Manor and became merged. The owner always thought that he had two separate lots. The Health Department had also approved the lots as two separate lots and they were applying to the Town to have them re-separated. An application had been made tothe Board of Appeals. 5. Henry Appel - subdivision of 15.3 acres at Camp Mineola Road, Mattituck. The applicant had presented two plans, a conventional layout and a cluster proposal. Planning Board Page 6 3/24/86 Mr. Donald Denis, architect and Pastor Ettlemeyer were present for a presubmission conference to discuss the site plan fo San Simeon Retire Community located at Chapel Lane, Greenport. This proposal had received approvals previously, however, amendments had been made to the proposal, therefore a new submission was required. The proposal consists of condominimum units for adults, totalling 144 units - 80 one bedroom and 64 two bedroom. Mr. Denis presented renderings of the proposal for the Board to review. A submission was also made answering all of the questions which the Board had at the previous review. Mr. Denis explained that the number of two bedroom units was increased since the market provided a stronger demand for two bedroom units. It was noted that a plan had also been submitted for the proposal by H2M indicating the village of Greenport hookups and drainage. Mr. Denis pointed out that all of the site plan elements had been addressed. Mattarrazzo Design, the landscape architect, had also done renderings of the watkways and signs. Mr. Denis stated that the entrance to the site and the first cluster had already been constructed. However, the landscape consultant had changed the parking configuration and when that happened it started to change the site plan and another'application had to be made. Paster Ettlemeyer stated concern with moving quickly on the Site plan since the Church is trying to keep cost down. Also, the present offering for the unit provides for full refund of the entry fee upon withdrawal from the retirement community for any reason. This would apply to any reSident for any reason at all. Because of that refund cuts had to be made to the bone. Mr. Ettlemeyer also stated that they were planning to subsidize the entry fee and/or the monthly maintenance on the units to make them more affordable. It was the consensus of the Board to review the materials submitted. The Planner will also review the surveys and site plans and this matter will be rescheduled on the next regular Planning Board meeting. The Board reviewed the lot line changes for Alfred and Barbara DiNunizio and N. Charles and Sylvia DeLuca. This is located at Wells Road, Peconic. Currently Mr. DiNunzio must use a right- -of-way over property ofZanieski for access since he does not have road frontage on Wells Road. Therefore, Mr. DeLuca was proposing to sell 6,719 squre feet to Mr. DiNunzio so he would have 150' of road frontage on Wells Road. In exchange Mr. DiNunzio would convey 10,485 square feet to Mr. DeLuca so he could have more waterfront. Mr. Edwards field inspected the premises and it was the consensus of the Board that the proposed land swap made alot of sense since each person would benefit;and no building lots would be created by the lot line changes. Planning Board Page 7 3/24/86 On a motion made by Mr. Ward, seconded by Mr. Mullen, it was, RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board approve the lot-line change for Alfred and Barbara DiNunzio located at Wells Road, Peconic to convey 10,485 square feet to the premises of N.

It was noted that a previous application of this proposal was denied by the Planning Board and the Board of Appeals. Mr. Latham had made a field inspection of the premises. A foundation was in on the parcel to be set-off since the applicant applied to the Building Department for a permit and failed to tell the Building Department that the set-off was denied previously. When it was learned that this was not a legal lot, the Building Department put a stop work order on the construction. Mr. Lessard noted that the parcels were purchased under two separate deeds, on in 1962 and one in 1964, however because they were in the same name, they became merged. On a motion made by Mr. Ward, seconded by Mr. Latham, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board refer the following recommendation to the Board of appeals regarding the set-off for Katherine and William Heins located at Orient: The Board is opposed to this proposal to set off 18,984 square feet from 48,839 square feet, and recommends that the premises remain as one lot. However, if evidence is found, upon review by the Board of Appeals, to substantiate granting of a variance, the Board requests that the proposed lot line be relocated to provide for an even split of the property. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mullen, Latham, Ward, Edwards obert J. Long- Susan E. Long, agent, was present for the pplicants. The Board reviewed this proposal for a set-off of 31,669 square feet from 11.912 acres at Main Road, East Marion. Mr. Latham had made an inspection of the premises. The Board questioned why the parcel to be set off was not 80,000 square feet in conformance with the existing zoning. Mrs. Long explained that the applicant wishes to sell the 31,669 square foot parcel, which contains a hous~ because he can no longer ~aintain it and it is a hardship for him to keep. When the house was left vacant it was vandalized and it is a historic home. Mrs. Long also explained that by adding more property to the North a flag lot would be created which the Board does not favor. Mrs.-Long stated that the remaining acreage is proposed for a minor subdivision in the future, with three three-acres lots and on~ two-acre lot. In this way the proposal would be similar to a cluster concept development. Mrs. Long pointed out that the lot to be set-off is approximately three times larger than the surrounding lots in the area, and Master Plan proposed the northerly portion of the premises for two acre zoning with the southerly pprtion on the road being proposed for one acre, therefore, the proposal is also in conformity with the Proposed Master Plan Update. The Board requested covenants and restrictions that the remainder of the premises be subdivided into no more than four lots. Mrs. Long stated that the applicant would be agreeable to covenants and restrictions as per the Board's request. This proposal was Planning Board Page 13 3/24/86 Robert J. Long cont.: also pending before the Board of Appeals for an 9rea variance, and the Board of Appeals was requesting the Planming Board's comments. On amotion made by Mr. Mullen, seconded by Mr. Ward, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board refer the following recommendation to the Board of Appeals regarding the proposed se~ off of Robert J. Long located at East Marion: The Planning Board is in favor of this proposal to set off 31,669 square feet from 11.912 acres subject to covenants and restrictions that the remaining 11.185 acres will be subdivided into no more than four (4) lots in the future. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mullen, Latham, Ward, Edwards Emilia Pike - The Board reviewed this proposal for a set-off at Main Road, Mattituck. The Chairman read correspondence from the Attorney for the applicant, Abigail Wic~ham. The proposal was to set-off 40,000 square feet from 90,328 square feet, and received a variance from the Board of Appeals. The Board had requested that the lot be redrawn however, the applicants did not want to comply. The letter f~om the applicant's attorney was read as follows: "The "L" shaped c~)nfiguration was created from the express purpose of avoiding a common driveway while still obtaining a 40,000 square f~)ot lot. Mrs. Pike feels very strongly about maintaining ]ler own driveway and as a legal matter we think it is advisable tc avoid a common driveway with certain reciprocal easeme]~ts and it could lead to title diffculities, disputes regarding m~intenance and liability problems. While an "L" shaped lot is lot the most deisrable planning configuration, I call to your attention that there is an "L" shaped lot immediately adjoining this parcel. Moreover the width of Parcel No. 1 is considerably larger than the adjoining lot to the west and in keeping wits the abutting lot to the north. Logically the most appropriat~ solution to this problem would be that of our first application, a straiqht stip with a frontage of 100 feet. This would conform to the iots to the west and no~th and leave Mrs. Pike with a parcel that is not irregular. Unfortunately, the Board of Appeals would not approve the subdivision. Therefore, we request that the Board proceed with the processing of this subdivision application." On a motion made by Mr. Latham, seconded by Mr. ~ard, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board request that the application of Emilia Pike be amended in accordance with the Board's previous request. Lot No. 1 would have a lot width of 125' and Lot No. 1 and Lot No. 2 would share a common driveway. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mutlen, Latham, Ward, Edwards Planning Board Page 14 3/24/86 On a motion made by Mr. Latham, seconded by Mr. Hard, it was RESOLVED that Whereas a formal application for the approvalof a subdivision plat entitled "Howard L. Younq"loc~ted at Orient was submitted to the Planning Board on March 8, ~985 and filing fee of $75.00 was paid on Marchll, 1985, and, WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on said subdivision application and plat at the Tonw Hall, Southold, New York , on March 3, 1986 at 7:30 p.m., and WHEREAS, the requirements of the Subdivision Regulartions of the Town of Soutyold ahve been met by said subdivisi©n plat and application, NOW, therefore, be it RESOLVED that the application of "Howard L. Younq" for approval of said subdivision plat prepared by Rod Van Tuyl dated as last maneded June 7, 1985 be approved and the Chairman be authorized to endorse approval on said subdivision plat. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Orlowski, Mullen, Latham, Ward, Edwards Arshamomaque Island - Philip Ofrias - The Board reviewed the amended maps for this proposal. This subdivision was reduced from four lots to three lots all over 5.01 acres so the Health Department would no~ have any jurisdiction with respect to Article 6. It was noted that the easterly property line had still not been established with respect to this subdivision.
