Mr. LaMorte is heavily committed in the community as far as investment is concerned, i.e. Keyfood Market in Cutchogue. He requested au extension for three years because he is not in a position to make performance on the bond. There are no lots sold and none offered for sale. He has no intention of selling lots in the near future. He is willing to post an additional amount to keep up with increase costs. Mr. Raynor explained that he had discussed this with Town Attorney Tasker and Mr. Tasker had indicated that any extension over six months would be a problem as he felt that was a reasonable time for an extension. Mr. Bruer stated that in past years it had been the avowed purpose of the Board to keep density down. He felt there would no harm to anyone. If at some time in the future the ordinance is ever changed to where the subdivision doesn't comply with any of the rules and regulations and ordinances of the Town then the Board should come forward. In this particular case there has been no change in the specifications. Mr. Raynor will discuss this particular case with the Town Attorney and Mr. Bruer will be informed of the outcome. 0rient-by-the-Sea~ Section III.
