Shelter Island Town requires a 49-1/2 foot right-of-way with 24 feet paved. East Hampton Town requires a 66 foot right-of-way with 24 feet of base and 20 foot top.

The narrower paved surface will better control the speed of traffic. 2. It would help maintain the country atmosphere. 3. It would be more economical for the town to maintain upon dedication.

Mr. Orlowski: In going over the file today, I find there is no affidavit of ownership. Mr. Cron presented the affidavit at this time. Mr. Orlowski: We do not have the county's recommendations yet. Is there anybody here'that is in opposition to this subdivision? Hearing none, is there anybody~here in favor of this subdivision? Mr. Cron: I am here on behalf of the applicant and as you can observe from the map itself it is a four lot minor subdivision. I would take it we may have to go to the Zoning Board of Appeals with respect to lot number one in light of the 50 feet required setback. It would only have 138.5 feet. The zoning ordinance requires 150 feet. We take that as not too serious a problem in light of the size of the lots'as they are substantially oversized. I would assume you want some kind of restri6~ion on it which we would be happy to give you. I wo~ld ask that it be approved subject to approval of other departments. Mr. Latham: What is the ten foot right-of-way? Mr. Cron: I would assume it is in a deed of record. It is probably for Egans to get to Indian Neck Lane.

Planning Board -8- March 17, 1981 DESCRIPTION OF ACTION The minor subdivision of Martha' Husin9 is a two-lot residential subdiViSion located~l~t'Mat.ti~Ucko The project has been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment for the following reasons: An environmental assessment~has been submitted which indicated that no significant ~d~erse effects to the environment were likely to occur should the project be implemented as planned. Because there has been no response in the alloted time from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation it is assumed that there is no objection nor comments 'by ~hat agency. Applicant should be aware that a permit may be required because of the proximity to the freshwater wetlands. Because there has been no response in the alloted time from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services it is assumed that there is no objection nor comments by that agency. The Suffolk county Planning commission has indicated that because Nature Conservancy has seen fit to acquire the adjoining parcel containing the body of water known as Horton Creek, measures should be taken to insure that any construction activity that takes place upon Lot 2 does not effect the conservation parcel by depositing silt or other debris upon it or'by damaging its vegetation in any way. The project will meet all the requirements of the Code of the Town of Southold Subdivision of Land Regulations.
