Mullen, Jr. Southold, N.Y. 11971 TELEPHONE 765- 1938 A regular meeting of the Southold Town Planning Beard was held at 7:30 p.m..Monday October 19, 1981 at the Town Hall, Main Road Southold, New York. Present were: Chairman Henry E. Raynor, Jr. Member G. Ritchie Latham, Jr. Member William F. Mullen, Jr. Member Bennett Orlowski, Jr. Long Island Nurseries - Mr. Benjamin Kasper and the board discussed the Suffolk County Planning disapproval as further subdivision is intended for the future. The board suggested the possibility of sub- mitting a cluster plan on this property. Mr. Kasper stated that con- trary to his letter, dated August 17, 1981, he has no intentions of further subdividing, possibly someone else would. Because this area was a nursery up until this year, he has had interested parties in- quire about three and four acre parcels for the use of greenhouses, as this land is adapted for this prupose. The board advised that if it was agreeable to Mr. Kasper, that a request for covenants, stating such, be obtained from the Town Attorney for Mr. Kasper's approval. Suffolk County National Bank at Mattituck - Mr. Alan Cardinale and Mr. Ed Mertz discussed this site plan with the board. The board advised Mr. Cardinale that the two bank proposals for the shopping area would reduce parking area by 51 park£ng spaces as stated in Mr. Fisher's report dated October 16, 1981. The board suggested that in order to accomodate the two new additions, Mr. Cardinale should find another form of usage for one of the new proposals or reduce the amount of sales area in the buildings that are presently dormant, possibly non-retail use, such as storage and warehouse. A covenant on redUction of retail area could be included on the site plan. As this area has received two variances from the ZBA for the reduction of parking area, it was suggested that the Building Inspectors compute the amount of sales area to be reduced to conform with parking requirements. It is the intent to have a full service facility with the National Bank, includ- ing service unitl 6:00 p.m. on Friday, as stated by Mr. Mertz. The North Fork Bank & Trust is not intended to be full service. It was noted that the rear landscaping area is larger than the front. A com- mittee was appointed to do a field inspection and report their findings to the board at the November 9 meeting. pg. 2 10/19/81 John Simicich minor subdivision - Mr. Charles Cuddy appeared on behalf of his client. He asked that the board consider the proposed subdivision submitted in 1975, as withdrawn by the applicant. The present proposal has a third lot included, which was part of the property that had been in one name. This lot (~3) had been set off by the Building Inspector and acquired approval from the ZBA for a 280-A. Although Mr. SimiciCh has no intentions of further subdividing or using lot ~2, Mr. Cuddy informed the board that he would not advise his client to sign a covenant stating such. Because Mr. Simicich has previously offered to dedicate 12½ feet to widen or exceed Camp Mineola Road, the board suggested that this beaffixed to the map. A committee was appointed to do a field inspection on this property and report their findings to the board at the November 9, 1981 meeting. The Cove - Mr. Turner and Lynn Edwards met with the board to discuss the Building Inspector's report dated September 17, 1981. The commit- tee gave~a report on the field inspection made on October 17, 1981. It was noted that the existing dwellings do not conform with the footage, as they require an additional 178 feet. They are used for seasonal occupancy, each having their own electrical meter. Mr. Turner added that he would like to add decks to the existing structures for extra footage. The board informed Mr. Turner that a roof would have to-be added to such a deck in order to meet the additional footage. The board suggested that Mr. Turner have a conference with the Building In- spector with regard to what he would permit and consider as a livable area in the buildings. The Planning Board and the Building Inspector will confer to determine parking needs. The board will review the file of Crescent Beach, in East Marion, which is a similar proposal handled by the ZBA. Pharr/Nicholas Aliano minor subdivision - Mr. Richard Lark appeared on behalf of his client, Pauline Pharr. It is their intention to ac- quire the parcel of "B" zone for a toy business. Mr. Lark stated that an effort to acquire the entire "B" portion was made with the owner, Nicholas Aliano, to no avail.

The board informed Mr. Buuer that this proposal has been sent to the Town Board for approval of the Cluster Concept. Mr. Bruer was informed that a portion of this property may not be suitable to build because of m~rsh area. Mr. VanTuyl stated that the area in question is 2/10 of an acre.
