This resolution was duly ADOPTED. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: That is the end of our prepared resolutions. At this time I would like to invite the public to address the Town Board on any Town business, is there anyone that would like to address the Town Board? Use the mike, tell us your name, so that wecan get !t recorded~. LINDA REHBERG: My name is Linda Rehberg. I live in Mattituck, and I would like to know the future of the noise ordinance in the Town of Southold regarding residential areas. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Councilman Moore, the Code Committee just took that up at their ~ast meeting, so he is going to fill you in where they are. COUNCILMAN MOORE: We have had a number of complaints. In fact I just sent a memo off to the Chief asking him to look at one existing New York State Law Disorderly Conduct Statute out there under the existing Penal Law, and I even sent them a case that I found off of my computer at the office suggesting that perhaps there is a tool there that we can use. We don't have to accept as an answer, he can't do anything. So, I have asked him to speak with the Suffolk County D.A., who would have to help him prosecute these cases. The 'second thing we are looking at, and we just battered some Ideas around, qaven't gone anywhere with the Code. or anything like that, is addressing outdoor amplification. We don~t want to deal with decimal levels, and meters, and training police officers, trying to do more with the notion of mutual respect among adjoining property owners, and so we have been talking about limits on outdoor amplification. We are just getting going. Last Monday was our meeting on that, and we are curious to see what the Chief is going to say about State Law, because if that tool is out there, and is not being used properly, then we would llke to encourage it's proper use, and that the Police can step in, in response to complaints. We are not asking necessarily that you file a formal charge, and prosecute in court, but if they feel they have that available to them as a tool it should make it more effective, and to go in there and intercede in these situations, so we are looking for the Chief's response to that inquiry. KAREN REHBERG: What is [he timing on that? COUNCILMAN MOORE: Hopefully, very shortly. SUPERVISOR COCHRAN: Hopefully, before the summer. Thank you. Mr. Lizewski? JOSEPH LIZEWSKI: I would just llke to thank Alice for her years in the public. I think a lot of people don=t realize that the eight years that Alice has served she has done a lot of work for the town. She has been digging, helping down at the refuse area, she worked hard on the Pool Committee, she worked hard on trying to get the Towr~ Hall look into moving the Town Hall over to the old North Fork Bank building over here. She is one of the few people on the Board who can actually say that she voteC against the Site Plan Ordinance, and most of the Wickham laws that we now have been plugging through. The twenty five page law he passed are still in place, but-Alice can honestly say that she as a real Republican actually voted against those laws. That is something very few people say. If the electric company had been taken care of' when Alice started it eight years ago, we would be on our way to about two years left on our bond issue, and getting ready to pay half tl3e amount of electricity and fees that we now hflve. Instead of $.15 we Would probably be paying around $.07 had she had her way at that time, because that didn't happen. It was a different administration, and today we are still stuck with what we have. It has gotten a lot more difficult t.o do, It was proposed at that time because
