February 19, 2008 Meeting Minutes
Date: Feb. 19, 2008
Time: 3:00 PM
Location: Supervisor's Conference Room, Town Hall Southold, NY
Attendees: Jim Grathwohl, Doug Constant, Jamie Garretson, Larry Jungblut,
Ron Rossi and Barbara Schnitzler.
The Commissioners recommended that Jim Grathwohl and Mel Phaff be no-
minated for another three year term. The Town Supervisor will be advised of
this recommendation so that the Town Board can reappoint Jim and Mel at an
upcoming Town Board meeting in March. Along with this recommendation,
Jim, Mel and Larry were reelected to their present positions - Chairman, Vice
Chairman and Secretary respectively.
Ron reported on his presentation of the LPC's recommendations for the Crary
application at the January ZBA meeting. The ZBA still defines the application
of having "dormers" which are not acceptable in lieu using the terminology of
"clear-story" which can be considered an early skylight and therefore be ac-
ceptable. Further discussion on this issue will be with the Town Board and
Town Attorney for resolution. Ron will prepare a presentation for the Town
Board at a future workshop meeting in March.
The draft of the Historic Preservation Handbook has been sent to various
town officials and boards for their comments and recommendations.
An application from for Historic designation on the property at 56755 Main
Road, Southold was submitted by Valerie Scopaz. Barbara will review it with
Valerie and present it to the Commission for final comment before recom-
mendation and sending it on to the Town Board.
Jim wants the Commission to review and discuss new projects for 2008. The
members should review Jim's list for discussion at the March meeting.
