Thank YoU. 2010-470 CATEGORY: Local Law Public Hearing June 29, 2010 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes Page 14 DEPARTMENT: Town Attorney LL/Regulating Exterior Lighting WHEREAS, there has been presented to the Town Board of the Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New York, on the 29th day of June, 2010, a Local Law entitled "A Local Law in relation to Regulating Exterior Lighting" now, therefore, be it RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold will hold a public hearing on the aforesaid Local Law at the Southold Town Hall, 53095 Main Road, Southold, New York, on the 27th day of July, 2010 at 4:35 p.m. at which time all interested persons will be given an opportunity to be heard. The proposed Local Law entitled, "A Local Law in relation to Regulating Exterior Lighting" reads as follows: LOCAL LAW NO. 2010 A Local Law entitled, "A Local Law in relation to Regulating Exterior Lighting". BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Southold as follows: I. Purpose. The provisions of this chapter are intended to control and regulate exterior lighting throughout the Town of Southold; eliminate unsafe glare that contributes to accidents by hindering visibility; promote more cost-effective lighting fixtures that are more energy efficient and conserves natural resources; protect landowners from the intrusive effects of glare and light trespass; preserve the rural character of the Town; protect the health and habitat of flora and fauna; and restore and maintain the natural beauty of the night sky. Excessive, unshielded and/or poorly directed exterior lighting causes light pollution and has many adverse effects. Light pollution detracts from the rural qualities of the Town and environs and results in an increasingly suburban and overdeveloped appearance at night. Glare associated with such lighting is hazardous for drivers and pedestrians on the Town's roads, interferes with the privacy of residents, wastes energy and creates skygiow that reduces visibility of the stars in the night sky and diminishes appreciation for the natural nocturnal environment. This chapter takes proper account of the legitimate uses of lighting while providing guidance and direction for the citizens of the Town. II. A new Chapter 136 of the Code of the Town of Southold is hereby adopted as follows: §136- 1. Title. This chapter shall be known as the "Exterior Lighting Law." §136-2. Definitions. June 29, 2010 Page 15 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes Unless otherwise expressly stated, the following terms shall, for the purpose of this Chapter, have the meanings as herein defined. Any word or term not noted below shall be used with a meaning as defined in Webster's Third International Dictionary of the English Language, unabridged (or latest editions): AREA LIGHT - A luminaire designed for illumination of a broad area. Area lights include, but are not limited to, streetlights, parking lot lights and yard lights over 1,800 lumens. ESSENTIAL LIGHTING - Light that is used for a specified period of time, which is necessary for location identification, safety, security or public circulation purposes. EXCESSIVE LIGHTiNG - Illuminance levels beyond that which is required for safety, as recommended in IESNA Recommended Practices, or higher than 5 footcandles on any lit surface unless a higher level is indicated on the Table of Limits of Illumination Levels. EXTERIOR LIGHTING - lighting that is mounted, located, lamped or used, whether inside or outside, to illuminate outdoor features. For the purposes of this chapter, lighting which is installed indoors but which is intended to illuminate an area outdoors shall be considered exterior lighting. FIXTURE - The complete lighting assembly (including but not limited to the lamp, housing, ballast, timers, photocells, reflectors, cover glass, lenses, louvers, and shields), including the support assembly (pole or mounting bracket). For purposes of determining total light output from a light fixture, lighting assemblies which may include multiple lamps shall be considered as a single fixture. Also referred to as a "luminaire." FOOTCANDLE ("FC") - The basic unit ofilluminance (the amount of light falling on a surface). Footcandle measurement is taken with a light meter. One footcandle is approximately equal to the illuminance produced by a light source of one candela in intensity, measured on a surface at a one foot distance from the source. Horizontal footcandles measure the illumination striking a horizontal plane. Footcandle values can be measured directly with certain handheld incident light meters. FULL CUTOFF ("FCO") - A classification for a luminaire designed and installed where no light is emitted at or above a horizontal plane running through the lowest point on the luminaire. In addition, the luminous intensity (as measured in candelas) emitted at any angle from 80° up to 90° cannot exceed a numerical value equal to 10% of the lumen rating of the lamp, as reported in a photometric report from the manufacturer. A cutoff, or semi-cutoff design, allows a restricted amount of light emitted above the horizontal and a non-cutoff provides no restriction against light emitted above the horizontal. FULLY SHIELDED - A luminaire constructed and installed in such a manner that all light emitted by it, either directly from the lamp or a diffusing element, or indirectly by reflection or refraction from any part of the luminaire, is projected below the horizontal. It is the same as a full cutoff luminaire but without any restrictions on light distribution below the horizontal plane, and it can be identified without a manufacturer's report. GLARE - Unshielded light from a light source that may result in nuisance or annoyance, discomfort or visual disability. HOLIDAY LIGHTING - Temporary lights installed on a residential property which are installed in connection with holiday or religious observances between Thanksgiving and the following January 15. June 29, 2010 Page 16 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes ILLUMINANCE - The density of light falling on any point of a surface, usually measured in footcandles in the United States. See "footcandles." IESNA - Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IES or IESNA), an organization that establishes updated standards and illumination guidelines for the lighting industry. IESNA RECOMMENDED PRACTICES - The most current publications of the IESNA setting forth illuminance levels for different task areas, e.g., walkways, streets, sports lights, etc. LAMP - The source of artificial light as distinguished from the fixture. LANDSCAPE LIGHTING - Lighting which is positioned and aimed to illuminate foliage, driveways, walkways, patios, decks and other exterior pedestrian areas, whether or not mounted on a structure. LIGHTING - Light fixture or light source, or the effect of light, and all apparatus and wiring to power artificial light. LIGHT POLLUTION -'Any and all nuisances caused by the adverse effect of man-made light, including but not limited to glare, light trespass, skyglow, visual clutter, and wasted energy due to excessive or unnecessary lighting; or artificial light that unnecessarily diminishes the ability to view the night sky or is disruptive to flora and fauna. LIGHT SOURCE - The light-emitting part or parts of a fixture, consisting of the lamp or lamps and any transparent or translucent covering over the lamp, as well as any refractors, reflectors, prismatic lenses, mirrors, or diffusers which emit or transmit light. LIGHT TRESPASS - Light projected across property lines or into the public right of way when it is not required or permitted to do so. LUMEN - A unit used to measure the amount of light that is produced by a light source. The lumen quantifies the amount of light energy produced by a lamp at the lamp, not by the energy input, which is indicated by the wattage. LUM1NAIRE - The complete lighting assembly (including the lamp, housing, ballasts, photocells, reflectors, lenses and shields), less the support assembly (pole or mounting bracket); a light fixture. For purposes of determining total light output from a luminaire or light fixture, lighting assemblies which include multiple unshielded or partially shielded lamps on a single pole or standard shall be considered as a single unit. MOUNTING HEIGHT - The vertical distance of the light source from natural grade. NONESSENTIAL EXTERIOR LIGHTING - Lighting which is unnecessary for pedestrian passage and not generally useful (e.g., decorative and landscape lighting). This includes lighting intended for a specific task or purpose when said task or purpose is not being actively performed (e.g., parking lot illumination and wall-mounted perimeter lights after business hours). PARTIALLY SHIELDED - A light fixture that is not fully shielded but incorporates a partial shield around the lamp by opaque barrier(s) such as louvers, shields, and other means in order to prevent the light source from being visible from across property lines, into waterways, or roadways. SKYGLOW - Glare or illumination of the night sky, whether direct or reflected. UNIFORMITY RATIO ("U RATIO") - A ratio that describes uniformity of illuminance across an area. The uniformity ratio may be a ratio of the maximum-to-minimum illuminance or the average-to-minimum illuminance. For example, if the Illuminating Engineering Society June 29, 2010 Page 17 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes recommends an average-to-minimum ratio of4:1 for a parking lot, the minimum illuminance should be no less than 1/4 of the average illuminance across the parking lot. UNSHIELDED FIXTURE - A fixture which, as designed or installed, emits all or part of the light above the lowest part of the light source. §136 - 3. Conflicts with other laws. In a case where this chapter is found to be in conflict with a provision of any other local law, ordinance, code or regulation, the provision or requirement which is the more restrictive or which establishes the higher standard shall prevail. §136-4. Applicability. All exterior luminaires, installed, replaced or repaired after the effective date of this Chapter shall conform to the standards established herein. All existing residential, private commercial, institutional, and utility owned or operated exterior lighting lawfully installed prior to the effective date of this Chapter are deemed nonconforming exterior lighting. Such nonconforming exterior lighting shall be brought into compliance with this chapter upon: (1) The replacement or relocation of such nonconforming exterior lighting fixture; or (2) Any reconstruction, addition or other improvement of a structure, the cost of which equals or exceeds 50% of the market value of the structure before the start of construction of the improvement. §136- 5. Standards for exterior lighting. General Requirements: (1) All exterior lighting shall be designed, located, and lamped to prevent excessive lighting, energy waste, glare, light trespass, and unnecessary skyglow. (2) All nonessential exterior lighting shall be mined off within ½ hour aficer the close of business and/or when not in use. Lights that are controlled by timers or are motion sensor-activated are encouraged to replace existing lighting necessary for safety purposes. (3) Canopy lights, such as service station lighting shall be fully recessed'and full cutoffluminaires so as to ensure that no light source is visible from or causes glare on public rights-of-way or adjacent properties (4) All area lights shall be full cutoffluminaires. See Fignres 1 and 2 below. Placement, height and number of fixtures: (1) No luminaires shall be taller than or mounted higher than 35 feet from the ground to their tallest point. (2) If illuminance grid lighting plans cannot be reviewed or if fixtures do not provide photometrics and bulbs are under 1800 lumens, the following requirements apply: (i) Pole height shall be no greater than four times the distance to the property line and maximum lumen levels permitted for different fixture heights are as follows: June 29, 2010 Page 18 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes Mounting Height (feet) 6 8 10 12 16 Lumen Maximums 500- 1000lumens 600-1600lumens 1000 - 2000lumens 1600 -2400lumens 2400 - 6000lumens (3) All private commercial, institutional and utility existing and/or new exterior lighting shall not cause light trespass and shall protect adjacent properties from glare and excessive lighting. (4) All proposed exterior lighting should use the least number of poles/fixtures at the lowest height and at the lowest illuminance levels necessary to safely light the area for the proposed use. Illuminance and type of lamp: (1) No luminaire shall be located or concentrated so as to produce glare or direct illumination across the boundary property line, nor shall any such light be of such intensity as to create a nuisance or detract from the use and enjoyment of adjacent property. The maximum illuminance at the property line ora parcel that adjoins a residential parcel or public right of way may not exceed 0.05 footcandle. The maximum illuminance at the property line between two nonresidential properties is 0.1 footcandle. (2) The average illuminance levels listed in the illumination levels for Various Common Tasks, as provided in the IESNA recommended Practices guidelines, shall not be exceeded for exterior lighting unless otherwise specified or approved by the Building Department or the Planning Board. The maximum number of lumens for commercial uses is 25,000 lumens per acre. For proposals in residential and limited business districts the maximum number of Lumens is 10,000 Lumens per acre. The Town recognizes that not every situation will require lighting, and excessive or unnecessary light shall be avoided. Appropriate lighting levels are dependent upon the general nature of the surroundings and the Building Department or Planning Board may require more or less than those listed in the IESNA Recommended Practices Guidelines. Illuminance level measurements for parking lots, sidewalks, and other walkways shall include any light from nearby side-mounted building lights, freestanding sidewalk lights affected by side-mounted building lights, and existing or proposed streetlights. In no instance may any lighted surface, as installed, exceed five footcandles, as measured horizontally or vertically by a light meter unless it can be demonstrated that a higher level is necessary for the proposed use (higher levels should be based on guidelines established either in the IESNA Handbook or similar professional or governmental guidelines or regulations (e.g., Federal standards establishing lighting levels around automated teller machines). (3) High-pressure sodium shall be used for all light sources rated over 1,800 lumens. (4) Streetlights shall be full cutoffhigh-pressure sodium, low-pressure sodium, or fluorescent, unless otherwise determined that another type is more efficient. Streetlights along residential streets shall not exceed 70-watt high-pressure sodium (hps) light with a lumen output of 6,400. streetlights along nonresidential June 29, 2010 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes Page 19 streets or at intersections shall not exceed 150 watts hps each, with a lumen output of 1,600, except the lights at major intersections on state highways shall not exceed 250 watts hps. Ifa light type other than high-pressure sodium is permitted, then the equivalent output shall be the limit for that light type. Exception: replacements of "historic" lighting design where the replacement of the luminaire piecemeal with compliant luminaires would unacceptably degrade the aesthetic characteristics of the existing lighting design. §136~6. Exemptions. The following exterior lighting is exempt or is partially exempt from the provisions of this Chapter: Vehicular lights, United States Coast Guard approved maritime navigational lighting, temporary lighting associated with nighttime roadwork and construction activities, and all temporary emergency lighting needed by fire, ambulance, and police departments or other emergency services are exempt.

When we first bought our home, we could walk down our backyard right down to the edge of what was the normal boundary of lake Marratooka, as a matter of fact, we even had a little beach there as did all of the other homeowners alongside of us. For the first couple of years everything was fine and eventually over the years with bad winters and rainy springs, the lake has spilled over its boundaries and it reached a certain point. Up until this year, it never exceeded that point. We put up a little fence to keep the geese out, a snow fence and it never went beyond that boundary. However, this year and we know the whole of the north fork was devastated with that terrible storm, the boundary came way up our backyard. Let me backtrack a little, two and a half years ago, this Board decreed that all the homeowners on lake Marratooka could no longer in'igate our yards, our lawns from the lake. It was stated in the letter that no private individual could use public water. What was not realized at the time was that those of us that were using the irrigation, we were topping off the lake and when it filled and exceeded its normal boundary, by our iixigation and the summer suns, we would bring it back to a normal level. However, this year the level has skyrocketed right up our backyard. For the first time in 25 years, we had water in our basement and we have as much, lost as much as 130 feet of land of our backyard with the spillage of lake Marratooka. You know, all of this has cost us thousands, cost us thousands to put in new pumps which you decreed we had to do. we worked off our wells, thousands when our basement flooded and we lost all kinds of things that we had down there this year. And now we have to spend thousands more to put in a sump pump. But the problem is not going to go away unless the town somehow sees fit, since this is public water, to be able to siphon off some of this water to bring it back to its normal level, since we are not irrigating and we are not bringing the level of the lake down. So if winter comes and the lake stays where it is, we are all going to be in a mess. So I would like to ask you to perhaps put your heads together, see if there is someway, I am wondering if maybe the fire department can siphon off some water and give it to a local farmer or if you have some vehicles in your highway department that can do similar things. Our home is devalued, our property is very devalued and we need your help. COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Right now is the lake about where it would be normally at this time of year? MS. TESTA: No. It is still high. COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Still higher? MS. TESTA: Yes. COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Because the lake is a function of the groundwater table and there are separate aquifers on the north fork. Each of them are separate units separated by salt water and I myself have a pond on my farm that I pump out of that I have never seen higher this spring. MS. TESTA: Right. June 29, 2010 Page 33 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: But is it being, groundwater percolates out through the soil into the creeks and bays and that is how, that is why the lake goes down. If you pump it out onto dry land, it is just going to recharge back into the aquifer and it is just going to be like pumping out ora well. There is really no place that the town can pump that away unless you pump it actually into a creek or the bay. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Let me just point out that the water table throughout the town is unusually high this year. For months, we had feet of water in our own police department. The hydrostatic pressure was just forcing all of the water up, what used to be small irrigation ponds have now flooded out entire communities. There is no doubt that Marratooka is much, much higher than it was. In order to do something that would be meaningful, we would probably need the authority of the DEC to discharge that water someplace else. I don't believe that the town's equipment or even the fire department equipment would be consequential. The amount of water they could move on those vehicles and the amount of amount of water we could move on ours, we have a big well truck, it would be inconsequential to the amount of water that is there. The only significant dent we could make would be to run literally irrigation pumps and pull the water off. The problem is we need a place to put it. That would, the only successful solution would be to put it in a bay or creek. We would need the DEC to approve that. That would be very unlikely approval to get. I would certainly not hesitate to ask and ask them to come out and look and try to help us solve that problem but it is very, very difficult to get the DEC to okay discharge into creek or the bay. COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: And it is hard at the level of groundwater, it is hard to actually lower it. An example is the pond that we pump out of to irrigate my farm, when we irrigate, the pond level drops down. The next morning, it is back to normal because that is the groundwater level. So it is really to lower the level of groundwater itself, I don't know how many, you know, millions of gallons you would have to pump out. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I will, towards the end of the week, bring some people out to see if we can at least look at the situation and see if there is any reasonable or realistic approach to solving it. I know it is a bad problem there, I am just not optimistic that there is any thing that can be done but I will certainly bring some people out and I actually met you both when I was an assessor so I know where you live and I will be sure to call you before I come out. MS. TESTA: Well, I certainly appreciate anything that you could do to help, to put some light on the subject. Thank you. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anybody else like to address the, Hugh? Hugh Switzer, Peconic HUGH SWITZER: Thank you, Scott. Hugh Switzer from the group to save Goldsmiths Inlet. As you all know, as a result of the county rebuilding only one of the original two jetties at the mouth of the channel into the inlet, the inlet is rapidly filling with sand and debris. Everything comes in and nothing goes out. So the inlet has gone from a healthy, safe environment available and enjoyed by all, to a highly polluted, dying eco-system closed to shellfishing and if it was a county beach, it would also be closed for swimming, deemed too unhealthy. What we have is a June 29, 2010 Page 34 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes unique nomh fork treasure being allowed to deteriorate into a swamp and a health hazard. Now the positive news, I want to emphasize that is that the town, specifically you all, have caused the development of a management plan and that management plan was developed and approved by you all one year ago. And we want to acknowledge you all for that and the Planning Department which we thank you. Grants have been filed and awarded. We had the awarding of the EPF grant but no work has begun because we are still waiting for a contract between the town and the EPF group, the Department of State. That's something I want to put back on your agenda. In the interim, the group to save Goldsmith's Inlet is doing everything we can do to support and address the situation. We can't do anything to solve the cause of the problems. We have accomplished a significant amount of work and I wanted to share some other good news. Since the management plan was approved, we have conducted four major cleanups at the inlet to remove debris that has been accumulating since the 1960's when that single jetty was put back. The most recent effort, in June, two weeks ago, we removed 40 tons of material. Forty tons. Now I would also like to acknowledge the people who supported that. There has been more than 100 citizens that worked and participated in those cleanups. Bill Grigonis and the ROTC cadets have been very actively supporting this. Many local businesses have supported us. Pete Harris and his crews have done outstanding work in picking up the debris that we put along the side of the road and the Suffolk County parks commissioner and his staffhas done a lot of work cutting up the material so we could actually get these trees and the telephone poles out to the road. To date, with these four cleanups, we have removed more than 80 tons of material. And that is from about half of the inlet. So we have about another 80 tons in the other half of the inlet that we are going to continue working on. Unfortunately there is more each day. If we could, we would be removing the infilling sand and that is the central issue to the inlet's demise. But that is beyond our power and we are implementing the town's management plan (inaudible) because that deals with (inaudible). We will continue our contributions with periodic cleanups, (inaudible) education on best practices on phragmites removals and I just want to mention that we have already communicated with over 1,200 local residents in the watershed area about best practices, so and specifically your (inaudible) he is part of it. And I would just end by saying that ultimately the responsibility for really saving the inlet rests with you and I know that you understand that. You have the power to implement the town's management plan and we just want you to know that we continue to support and will do everything that we can continue to do to get that inlet back to where it was. Thank you. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you. Just so you know, we are not stagnant on the issue. I know we are waiting for the Department of State, that grant. And the state is generally very quick to get letters of awards out, they are not so quick to get contracts out that is needed for the money. MR. SWITZER: Right. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: But we actually just the other day had a discussion and we are setting up a meeting with the DEC to discuss various drainage options including filtering. We know we have issues with Autumn lake. Whether the problem, again, the issue is discharge, where do you put the water? So we are going to pitch to them an idea that we have been developing which is a filtering system. You know, filtering the water before it gets back in to the June 29, 2010 Page 35 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes eco-system. Those are the types of things we are working on and DEC, I think the mindset is changing there, I think they will be more receptive than they were a few years ago when they rejected those ideas. The technology changes everyday and I think that we are going to prove that we could do a very good job of cleaning the water that way, so those are the types of things that we are working on everyday because you know there are a whole host of challenges up there, the jetty being the most important and biggest challenge, the jetty itself. But all of the other issues, the water intrusion and everything else. Thanks. MR. SWITZER: Thank you. George Aldcroft, Peconic GEORGE ALDCROFT: George AldcrofL I just wanted to say that at the end I am going to be giving you two letters. One that we gave to Pete Harris, his crew came out and did a super job. You wouldn't know that 40 tons were ever there. And I think sometimes people don't always get thank you's and positive things back when they are doing something and we wanted to make sure that he did. Also what we are going to do is give you all, we have another cleanup planned for August 14 and when I give this to you, you are going to see a picture of all of the wood that was there, if any of you drive down the road and take a look at that spot as you come down Mill Lane as it goes down, take a look at that and it will give you some idea of all of the stuff that we took out and we want to continue doing that. And again, thanks for town employee support. But I will give you these all later, after the meeting. COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Thanks for your continued work there, it has made a really big difference. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I just have concerns about someday getting popped with child labor laws with the way you are working these ROTC kids. They are everywhere. Major Grigonis has done a great job there. MR. ALDCROFT: Inaudible. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right. Would anybody else like to come and address the Town Board on any other issue? Scott? Scott Harris, Orient SCOTT HARRIS: Aftemoon. Mr. Supervisor, members of the Town Board. It is nice to see you again. Reminds me of old times being here. I have a question, Mr. Supervisor and Town Board in reference to the surplus for the police boat? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, we just declared it surplus this evening. MR. HARRIS: Okay. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: And what we would ask you to do is get a hold of Don Dzenkowski, if you can call him tomorrow and get a good look at the boat and tell us if it is something you are interested in pursuing. June 29, 2010 Page 36 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes MR. HARRIS: That is what I am here to tell you. I am chairman of the board of the fire district in Orient, my fellow commissioners have reviewed the boat along with the chief and we find it exactly what our district has needed and is looking for. We have passed a resolution already establishing funds to purchase such boat, so I would like to know what the next step would be. I realize that you are probably going to put it out to sale to the public but I wondered if there was a way that it could be done from district to district without going through that procedure at this point. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We, actually, I emailed the Town Board on the issue. The problem was that we had, in the interest of fair play, we had the Village of Greenport which is without constable protection expressing interest, we had our own Trustees express interest and it seemed like all of a sudden this 1989 boat became the hottest deal in town. Everybody wanted it. we thought the first thing we should do is make sure everybody has a good chance to review it so they know exactly what they are buying and then just accept an offer from there but I would be happy to talk to you further about this, if you guys want to make an offer to the town, I will make sure the Town Board gets your offer. MR. HARRIS: So we will do that through a bid process, is that what you are (inaudible)? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes. Give me a call tomorrow and we will talk about numbers. MR. HARRIS: Because like I said, our district, our commission has passed a resolution already enacting the purchase of such boat when it was declared surplus if the town was amenable to sell it to us. Certainly as the needs of our fire district, being as our fire district is probably one of the few that is surrounded almost by water, 270 degrees if not more, maybe 360 if you wanted to actually go right to the causeway and go around. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: If some people had it their way. MR. HARRIS: But in other respects, I thank you for... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We just declared it surplus at this evening's meeting but I would certainly, I anticipated contacting you and I know I got a call from your fire chief.' MR. HARRIS: If any members of the Town Board would like to discuss this also, if we can do that at a meeting, I would be glad to be there and bring a member or two members of my board along with the chief. But as I said, the interest is not possible, it is expressed and it is positive and it is concrete, so we have already passed a resolution appropriating money for it. It is definitely something we need because of the accidents we have had over the years, we fully respect the police marine units and the draw on them and their time, in the summer especially. And what our fire district is afraid of is that we are going to have some type of catastrophe either in the sound side or the bay side and the town marine units will be tied up with another call and won't be able to respond quick enough where we would have the opportunity to do so. And we plan on, if we are successful, to keep that vehicle, that boat, at the Orient by the Sea marina so June 29, 2010 Page 37 Southold Town Board Meeting Minutes that we have access both ways into Gardiners Bay and also into the sound. We realize that if it were a sound accident, it would have to mn fi.om the Mattituck area because that is where your boat was kept. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: One at Port of Egypt and one there, yes. MR. HARRIS: We would be right there, available so in consistency, we hope that we continue to work with you on that and I would be glad to talk to you tomorrow and members of the Town Board and thank you for the time and happy 4th of July. COUNCILMAN KRUPSKI: Thank you, you too. COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Scott, you guys never really purchased a boat before because most of your members had boats, is that what it is? That they would use their own boats to go out on calls? MR. HARRIS: We have a small Zodiac that we trailer but the problem with that is that it is a very small Zodiac and if you are talking about bodies and so on or just personnel trying to pull them into that Zodiac, it is extremely difficult to try to pull a body into a boat like that. It is really for emergency purposes right close to the water, real close to the bay, real close to our little inlets and Hallocks bay and Little Neck bay and that is really what it is designed for. It really isn't designed for something that is in the rough waters or anything like that. COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Yeah, this would be similar to us buying the school in the Peconic fi.om the Southold School District, I would support selling it to the fire department. MR. HARRIS: Thank you very much. I will talk to any members of the Board and Mr. Supervisor, again, thank you and happy holidays. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you, Scott.
