to Mr. Joseph Saland was read:
Dear Mr. Saland:
A hearing was held on the preliminary map for the above-
captioned subdivision on September 16, 1974. A resolution
was passed on October 28, 1974 approving the preliminary map
subject to the condition that additional catch basins be
placed on both sides of the road at station 23 + O0 of
Jeremiah's Lane, approval of the Highway Superintendent and
Highway Department and the recharge basin ~n Section I be
completed or at least well under construction before any
lots can be sold in Section 2.
This matter has by resolution been set for a public
hearing on the final map which will be held on July 7, 1975.

Mr. Lawrence Tuthill and I approve of the additional drain-
age of the catch basins connected to the recharge basin.
/s/ Raymond C. Dean
Sup't of Highways
The following letter under date of April 8, 1975 to the
Superintendent of Highways was read:
Dear Mr. Dean:
I have received the final maps of the above-captioned
subdivision which will be officially presented to the
Southold Town Planning Board at their next regular meeting
to be held April 21, 1975.
Within thirty days after that date, I will need your
report.
The preliminary map of this subdivision was approved
subject to the condition that additional catch basins be
placed on both sides of the road at Station 23 * O0 of
Jeremiah's Lane and the recharge basin in Section One be
completed or at least well under construction before auy
lots can be sold in Section 2. I sent it to the Suffolk
County Planning Commission and they had no objection to
the map.
Southold Town Planning Board
A similar letter was sent to Lawrence M. Tuthill, P.E.
The following letter dated December 3, 1974 to the
Southold Town Planning Board was read:
Dear Mr. Wickham:
In accordance with your request, the staff of the
Planning Department has considered the above captioned
proposed subdivision. Since the basic pattern of the map
has been set by the parcel's configuration and Section One,
the staff has no comment to make regarding Section 2.
Staff comments on~a preliminary map do not constitute
a review. When this map is in the final stage of preparation,
it should be referred to the Suffolk County Planning Commission
for review pursuant to Section 1333 of the Suffolk County
Charter.
Since Southold is faced with a potential problem, as several
other towns are, resulting from the colonial division of land
into long lots which can force land subdivision in bowling
alley or grid-iron street patterns, you may be interested in

not without its problems. However, it does present an
approach that may be helpful if modified.

Subdivision Review Section
It was noted by the Chairman that updates are needed on the
approval of the Health Department and Environmental Control
of the County of Suffolk.
Chairman: At this time, I will open the hearing for anyone
who is opposed to this subdivision entitled" Elijah's Lane
Estates, Section 2". Hearing none, I will ask for those
that wish to speak in favor of it.
Joseph Saland: I think it is a nice subdivision. There are
no two houses alike. There is no one after another ranch.
We are trying to do the nicest job we can and trying to
comply with the regulations and we will continue to do the
same.
Chairman: For the record, what is the condition of the
recharge basin?
Mr. Saland: We are starting to get bids on it. We will do
work on it before we start to sell any lots. We would like
as much as possible to do the recharge basin and the roads
at the same time. We will before we come in to sell any
lots or before you sign the plan, we will have started on
the recharge basin and possibly finished it. We have
estimates from a couple of contractors and will seriously
go out now for estimates.
Mr. Ray-nor: You will need updates.
Mr. Saland: When you send this to the County for approval,
does that have to have an update?
Chairman: No. Anyunfinished details will have to be made
conditions of approval. It will also be conditioned on receipt
of notice that the bond has been received. If no one else
wishes to be heard I will declare the hearing closed.
Rod 'N' Reel Estates.
The Chairman opened the hearing on the preliminary map
of the subdivision known as "Rod 'N' Reel Estates" at 8:00

Chairman: I would like to point out at this time that this is
a hearing on a preliminary map. I have notice under date of
June 27 of this hearing to the attorney for the developers.
I have the affidavit of ownership and receipt for the filing
fee.
The following letter under date of January 27, 1975 to the
Planning Board was read:
Gentlemen:
A meeting to review several subdivisions was held at the
office of Superintendent Raymond C. Dean, Peconic Lane,
Peconic, at lO:00 a.m. on January 23, 1975. Present were
Superintendent Dean, Justices Louis Demarest and Martin Suter
of the Highway Committee and Mr. L. Tuthill, P.E.
It was agreed by all that the road layout appeared to be
satisfactory. It was noted that the contours outside the
property were missing. A study and report by the developer
so as to preclude any excess water caused by the subdivision
going beyond the proposed drainage area within the subdivision.

Planning Boar~ -6- July 7, 1975
Chairman: The test hole information is important and there
is some comment in the correspondence but we will come back
to this later. Things seem to be in order. At this time I
will call for anyone that wishes to be heard in opposition
to the subdivision called" Rod 'N' Reel Estates" at
Arshamomaque. Hearing none, I will ask for anyone that wishes
to be heard in favor o£ it.
Michael Weinstein, E~q., Attorney for the developers: I
believe we have complied to the best of our ability in
preparing a preliminary map for approval. I don't have any-
thing more specific to say with the exception that we hope to
finalize this development and complete the improvements in a
manner that we will be proud of and the Town of Southold will
be proud of.
Chairman: There was some correspondence here about the water
study and test holes. They are located but we have no record
to show the nitrate results. Test holes are shown and there
are roughly two feet of clay which is to be expected in this
location. I would assume that you will have no real problem
but normally this is one of the first things we ask for. It
will be'required although not specifically mentioned.
Mr. Raynor: The property across the street on the west side
is in for subdivision and they are exploring the possibility
of municipal water. It would be something to explore with Mr.
Monsell of the Village of Greenport. Plans may have already
been made to run a main down there. Have you been down on
the property?
Mr. Weinstein: Yes.
Mr. Raynor: Do you find you have much trouble with standing
water on lot 6?
Mr. Weinstein: The only spot was the area marked 'swamp'.
I didn't notice any there at all.
Mr. Raynor: With clay it has a tendency to lay on top. The
Department of Health will probably ask you to go to a five
pool system because of the shallowness.
Chairman: I think you better check not only the nitrates
but the chlorides because this is one of these cases where
you could easily get salt. There is a clay strata that holds
the fresh water up. We will want to hold this up for almost
as long as we can. It is a problem area and we want to be
very careful. Either you have public water or else the water
supply is adequate for the number of houses you propose. We
will probably hold this up for the allowable time. In the
meantime we will ask the Soil~and Water Conservation District
for their findings. I will now declare the hearing closed.

Chairman: State law requires that the Town Board approve
all cluster concepts in the Town of Southold. The following
is the letter from our professional engineer:
To: Mr. Raymond C. Dean, Supt. of Highways, Southold Town
Re: Subdivision entitled Orient Village dated March 20, 1975
Roads
Profile shows 70' wide Tabor Road and a proposed new
profile, but no such width is shown on plans.
If Tabor Road is not to be changed then profile of
proposed road will have to be revised.
Personally see no apparent traffic problem due proposed
road entering Village Lane. Traffic generated by
nine building lots would be offset by an alternate
route in case of road blockage.
There is insufficient drainage. Suggest a recharge
basin be constructed with the possibility of enlarge-
ment of the existing drainage area.
General
Suggest restrictions on conveyance of plots "C" thru
"N" to adjacent owners so as not to create additional
building lots. It appears as several parcels are
large enough for a building lot through a variance.
This is on the letterhead of Lawrence M. Tuthill, P.E.
Planning Boal ~ -9- ~uly 7, 1975
Chairman: Subsequent to that the Planning Board said a
cul de sac. Going back through the file I find a letter
to the developer from the Planning Board dated April 7, 1975.
Dear Mr. Schriever:
We have received information from numerous people in
the Orient area that they do not look favorably on another
connection to Village Lane. It is also our understanding
that the Highway Committee does not approve it. We think
that you would be well-advised to make a cul-de-sac in the
proposed road or as another possibility you might consider
abandoning the cluster concept and putting in a loop road
with standard lots plus playground and so forth. We offer
this suggestion only because to date there has only been one
cluster concept approved in the Town of Southold.
There is a letter from the Attorney for the developer dated
February 4, 1975.
Dear Mr. Wick~m:
Pursuant to our recent conversation concerning the cluster
subdivision of William W. Schriever at Orient, we are
enclosing the proposed map submitted to you many months ago.
In order to proceed before the Department of Environmental
Control it is necessary that we submit a formal subdivision
map as prepared by Mr. Van Tuyl. We, therefore, ask that you
outline in pencil those areas which you wish to be included
in the map.
For reference purposes we point out that the areas containing
arrows are a part of the premises purchased by Mr. Schriever
but are to be conveyed to adjoining owners by a deed which
will encumber each conveyance with a scenic easement. Those
properties upon which the notation "exchange" has been made
are to permit the straightening out of lot lines. The exchange
has been completed between Schriever and Frost and Schriever
and Wysocki.
Kindly advise those areas which are to be included in the
division so that we may attend to preparation of the same.
Thank you.

Chairman: Under date of June 4, 1974 there is a letter from
a couple of petitioners in the Village of Orient and a long
list of names of people that are protesting the connection
with Village Lane. I have pages and pages, say twelve.
Getting hack to September 23, 1974, there is a letter from
the Planning Board to Mr. Schriever.
Planning BoaI -10- July 7, 1975
Dear Mr. Schriever:
We understand you are proceeding with road construction
which is within your rights but we would think that you would
be well-advised to notify the Highway Department and the
Highway Inspector before starting any major construction.
/s/ John Wickham, Chairman
The following letter under dante of January 16, 1974 to the
Planning Board was read:
Gentlemen:
Confirming our discussions during the appearances before
you by Mr. Schriever and myself it is my understanding that
the proposed cluster development by Mr. Schriever including
14+ ~cres at Orient, New York, is generally acceptable to
the ~lanning Board with the following exceptions:
(1) Determination must be made as to the proposal to
convey certain open space areas, constituting 1.~ acres, to
adjoining property owners;
(2) The parcel at the southeast corner of the proposed
map, which is partly in business zoning and partly in resi-
dential zoning, must be shown on the map and its proposed uses
appropriately indicated.
When the foregoing matters have been resolved and the Board
advises whether the proposed road from Tabor Road to Village
Lane is to be a through street or is to end in a cul-de-sac
at Village Lane, then Mr. Schriever will submit preliminary
plans in accordance with your requirements. As indicated to
you, we wish to do this as promptly as possible and therefore
ask that you advise us if there are any other conditions or
considerations which you wish to have us comply with prior to
submission of the preliminary map.
/s/ Charles R. Cuddy
Chairman: There is a letter to the Chairman of the Board of
Review under date of January 17, 1974 in which the Planning
Board points out that this is a cluster concept and we are
trying to promote clustering.
"I would further like to point out that under the provisions
of the clustering ordinance of the Town of Southold, no
requirement of the residential area may be reduced more than
50%.nor may clustering be used in any except the residential
zone. This means that no lot may have less than 20,000 square
feet nor 75 foot highway frontage. In this particular case,
the lots are larger than the minimum required and can be made
to include ~0,000 square feet without undue hardship.
"It is the feeling of this Board that from a practical matter
Planning Boa~ -11- July 7, 1975
the health of any occupants of houses to be built on these
lots would be in no way changed by the manner in which the
rear area of the lots might be handled."
Chairman: There is a letter to the Department of Health
dated January 2, 1974 which says your case has been scheduled
and so forth. This subdivision and the cluster concept has
been before the Planning Board for almost two years. The
Planning Board has repeatedly stressed the fact that we
believe in the clustering concept to preserve open space in
the Town of Southold. I want further to say that it appears
to me personally, this is a personal feeling, that Mr.
Schriever is trying to do a favor in straightening out some
of the property lines in this particular area and that as
regards the clustering concept, the odds and ends of lots, we
have and will insist may not be used for building additional
residences, must be tied up and kept forever open. More than
than, under the clustering concept, he has more than enough
area without these odds and ends for the clustering lots that
he is proposing. Therefore, it would appear to this Board as
I Personally see it, I'm talking about one vote only, that
if we can settle the problem of the highway, the proposed road,
that Mr. Schriever's cluster concept fits in with this philo-
sophy of the Town of preserving open space and might be con-
sidered to be doing a very considerable favor to many of the
property owners in the immediate area. Having said that, we
hold public hearings to hear from the people involved. At
this time, in accord with our normal practice, I will ask for
those who wish to be heard in opposition to this subdivision.
Please give your name to the secretary and in the interest of
time make your statement as brief as possible.
Alice Leddy: I am not opposed to Mr. Schriever's development.
There are two things I am concerned with. Number one, the
road into Village Lane and, number two, the name of the devel-
opment. We are in the process of having Orient Village declared
historical.
Jim Leddy: The maps that are before you on the table here
are'entitled "Orient Village". During the intermission that
we had a few moments ago, there was another map being shown
around which is also entitled "Orient Village" which is the
one that is presently in existence. I think there could be
some degree of confusion. It is a minor point but of some
moment to the residents.
Chairman: I would like to point out if you want to take this
map and look at it, at the present time, the highway ends in
a cul-de-sac and doesn't intersect Village Lane. This is the
map that we are considering tonight. Are there some others
that wish to be heard? We suggested some months ago to the
developer that it not intersect Village Lane.
Mr. Horn: If this is approved would it be possible later
for Mr. Schriever to push a road through to Village Lane?
P1 auning Boar
-12- July 7, 1975
Chairman: The answer is it would not be possible. On the
other hand, it has been the uniform practice of this Board
to ask that a dotted line, dotted area, be reserved for
possible dedication in case the residents of the area decided
~they wanted the road. This has happened so many times in the
past in areas where people at the time thought it wasn't at
all possible. It has happened so many times that we invariably
ask for this but this will be only if the residents of the
immediate area overwhelmingly request it and this might be
forty er fifty years from now.
Dr. Moor-Jankowski: The map shows a cul-de-sac which in
part is on property which by right belongs to me,!~hich should
have been conveyed to me by Mr. Schriever about a year and a
half ago on which litigation is now pending, papers have been
filed, Mr. Schriever has been served with the papers and I am
in a position (a) for him trying to operate this land for his
own use and I am in a position (b) for having this cul-de-sac
in front of the windows of our bedroom. He has bought the
property and has enough space to put the cul-de-sac on his
own property.
Chairman: It has been the policy of this Board at all times
to requir~ that developers and adjacent people settle their
differences before going too far and I am sure that some means
can be made to settle this problem one way or the other. I
wan~ the secretary to make note that we will require that
these differences be settled. It would seem to me that it
would pose no great problem in view of the fact that Mr.
Schriever has more than enough area to do one of several
things.
Mr. Raynor: Dr. Moor-Jankowski, are you saying that this
map is in error the way it is submitted?
Dr. Moor-Jankowski: There is property here that I can show
yo6 that should never have been in the development. My
agreement with Mr. Schrie~er was that as soon as he obtained
this property from the Thomas Estate. My agreement with Mr.
Schriever was I was to receive an option and I was to get
in recompense some land in back of the property. This whole
property should have never been put into the development.
In my last meeting with Mr. Schriever he told me that the
plamning Board would not allow him to sell off this piece of
property before he submitted which I don't believe to be the
truth.
Chairman: My suggestion would be that regardless of the
rights and the w~ongs this Board will not take sides in this,
but it wouldn't seriously interfere with this subdivision,
this cluster concept. If this road was shortened somewhat
and the cul-de-sac was made shorter. This is a possibility,
it could be done that way and there would be basically no
problem. There is area enough to do it.
Dr. Moor-Jaukowski presented some sort of document which Mr.
Raynor looked at.
Planning Boal -13- July 7, 1975
Mr. Baker: I would just like to ask a question. Is
"Orient Village" a trade name or a corporate name and,
~o, is it registered?
~f
?~r. Schriever: About two years ago I made an application
to the County Clerk for the use of the name "Orient
Village" and the name was approved as the name of the devel-
opment. The only purpose for this name was to identify this
map uniquely in the files of the County Clerk's Office where
these things are filed. It has no other purpose than that.
It was just a name. We could call it A B C, it would be just
as good. This seemed to identify the area and was accepted.
I have a letter to that effect about two years old.
Chairman: It does not have to be used for this subdivision.
If the Planning Board says one of the conditions will be that
you change the name, that will be a condition so it is within
the power of this Board to take that into consideration
because regardless of whether it is accepted by the County
Clerk or not, this Board has the authority to approve or
disapprove names or highways, in fact, the whole concept.
Charles Webb: In lieu of your last statement, I would like
On my own behalf and on.behalf of many of the people that are
here tonight to make a request that the Board consider that
very seriously because in lieu of the work the Historical
Society has done along this national preservation site. I
think we have a right to feel that we live in the Village of
Orient and we are trying to preserve it. I feel to have it
designated on a map such as this would be detrimental to our
cause.
Mr. Van Nostrand: I would like to know what use the map
s~0ws for the commercial property.
Chairman: This map does not include any commercial property.
The property that Mr. Schriever holds on Tabor Lane or Road
is ~already zoned business and is not included in this
residential development. It includes his buildings on the
north end and except for the fifty feet out for this proposed
road goes down to within 80 feet of the Town Highway sump.
That is all zoned business.
Mr. Van Nostrand: May I also ask what type of architectures.
is contemplated for the houses?
Chairman: The Planning Board has site plan approval on this.
We have no Architectural Board of Review in the Town of
Southold but I think by now everybody knows that we lean
heavily toward colonial-type and non-uniformity. If there
is anything the Chairman of the ~lanning Board doesn't
like it's French Provincial. The people have gotten the
message. I want to say at this time before we go any further
that I feel that everyone of these comments and suggestions
have been constructive and good and if you have any more like
them, we would be very happy to hear them.
Planning Boar -14- Lly Y, 1975
Dr. Moor-Jankowski: Is it actually true that the Planning
~oard would have not approved if Mr. Schriever wanted to set
off~a piece ~o me for which I had prior option before he even
started?
Chairman: Dr. Moor-Jankowski, a property owner may sell bits
and pieces of his property in what our attorney calls casual
sale which he has done apparently to Wysocki and another as
long as he doesn't sell more than one every second or third
year. Number two, that he doesn't sell away and leave himself
less than one acre. In the interest of time, it is obvious
that Mr. Schriever couldn't make casual sales of one every two
or three years and get anywhere with all these pieces of
property he is trying to save out. Let's be reasonable. I
think... He could not sell piecemeal all the way around.
Let's not get into this because this is small potatoes. At
this time I will ask for those that wish to speak in favor
of the development.
Charles Cuddy, lawfirm of Tooker, Tooker & Esseks in Riverhead:
We represent Mr. Schriever. Mr. Chairman, originally I was
,.going ~o set forth the map on the wall but I think, probably,
everybody has seen the map and recognizes that we have eleven
lots. I think Mr. Wickham has well explained the cluster
concept to keep open space. Some of you probably don't know
it but this Southold Town Board has promoted this probably more
than any other board on eastern Long Island, that is, trying
to preserve space and that's what we have done in the southern
part and northern part of this particular concept. We have
eleven lots which actually is on a little bit more than eleven
acres. The density remains the same which is one house per
acre. The 12th lot is in excess of 40,000 square feet which is
$1so a residential lot, but it is not in the clustering area.
We have been before a number of boards including this board,
and also the Town Board of the Town of Southold. We have been
before the Suffolk County Health Department and they have
given us approval for this concept. We have been before the
Suffolk County Department of Environmental Control and we
~have preliminary approval. We expect to have a hearing within
the next month and that time get formal approval. What I
would like to do and I know you have some questions regarding
the road. I would like to point out that Mr. Schriever
initially had it so the road would go through and we acceded
to the Planning Board and have indicated that there is going
~to be a cul-de-sac. We still, however, are asking to permit
us to have the road go through and we would like the Planning
Board to consider from our point of view why we would like the
road to go through. We have tonight Mr. Latham, Irving, who
is an engineer and system analyst. We would like to present
an analysis of our concept of the road going through. Before
he does that, I also would like Mr. Schriever to show you
some of the architectural renderings that we have which
indicate the type of houses that we propose to put on these
lots. T would like to say one thing about Orient Village. We
used the name Orient Village just as Mr. Schriever indicated
a~. only a designation and it is only so that we have something
Planning Boar -15- July 7, 1975
that we can Dut on file with the County Clerk to file a
subdivision. We don't want to preempt the name "Orient
Village". We will certainly be happy to replace it with
another name. We have no patent on the name "Orient Village".
We just used it as a name to refer to a specific area.
Obviously, you have a different area in mind. I would like
Mr. Schriever to show you some drawings of the property if
that's o~k. with the Planning Board and then have Mr. Latham
speak for a few minutes.
Mr. Schriever: These were~m~de when I started. They are
getting yellow I've been in this thing so long. These are
some renderings not to be taken terribly specifically because
it will be adjusted to suit the desires of the owner with
respect to room layout and so forth but the idea is to give
you a picture of the type of house we want to have in this
area. When we file the covenants on this property we are
goihg to make a statement in there, I hope that it is enforce-
able, to the effect that we want to limit the type of archi-
tecture to that which is exemplified by the houses on Village
Lane. If we can succeed in that, then this is what we agree
we would have. I think you will recognize some of these
houses. This is the George Vail house. It is larger than
~'his house.
~,Chairman: Bill, may I point out that in the Town of Southold
there cannot be any multiple residences in the cluster concept.
They have to be single family houses. There will be no two
family houses and I want everybody to understand that in
Southold it has to be single family residences only.
Mr. Schriever: These houses are limited, in the covenants
they will be limited, to 1200 square feet minimum, for one
story and 1800 for two story which is a fair size house. No
attached garages because it is not in keeping with the area
at all. The garages will be separate. There are certain
other restrictions including the setback I hope to establish
at fifty feet instead of the town's requirement of 35 feet
because the lots are quite deep and there is no problem with
the amount of space available and I think it will make it
more attractive and a benefit to the residents. Are there
any questions on the type or the way it will appear when it
is done. I will be glad to answer.
Mr. Webb: Can you at this time estimate or give us an idea
of what the price range of these houses would be?
Mr. Schriever: I don't know. I got some prices here that
are about a year and a half old and the way things are going
in this country, God only knows what it will cost by the time
I get this thing done. The price of the road has literally
doubled in those two years.
Mr. Webb: What was the price a year and a half ago?
Planning Boa~ -16- ~ly 7, 1975
Mr. Schriever: This house here was estimated to cost
$40,000. That would be plus the price of the lot. Actually,
I believe based on what I have observed that a house in good
condition in Orient as it stands now, these new houses would
probably sell completed at about the same price that you would
sell a second-hand house. I saw a house go in the last year
or so for $45,000. These sre larger houses than that and of
course they are new and slot more area than most of the lots.
Are there any other questions with respect to the appearance
of the thing? The wiring will be all underground.
Mr. Raynor: Mr. Schriever, do you intend to build these
homes?
Mr. Schriever: What I would like to do is, I would like to
take the contract to build a home to the requirements of the
person who wants to,ultimately own it and sell him the
finished product. That's the way I would like to do it.
The covenants are tighter than my lawyer thinks I can hold it
in court and I think the best way to really control everything
is to do it myself, if I can. I don't know with these delays
it is costing money. Every month you sit around it's ~nother
thousand dollars.
Chairman: Let me comment on one other thing. Bill, I am
not just sure how a site plan works on cluster concept, but if
you were to build to specifications and to order would you be
willing to submit individual site plans to the Planning Board.
This is something we haven't explored, but it is obvious if
you are going to build them one by one.
Mr. Schriever: I think I can control it better that way.
Chairman: What I am saying is would you be willing to take
the Planning Board into consultation for this so that we
can more or less preserve the colonial atmosphere?
Mr. Schriever: I have no objection at this time.
Mr. Fagan: Is the road going to be allowed to come through
on Village Lane or not?
Chairman: This map does not show the road going through to
Village Lane. We have 12 pages at least of people who do not
want it to go through. We have discussed this with the Town
Board briefly and the Highway Committee specifically and they
concur ~this stage of the game so I would say that at this
stage of the game there are very few people outside of the
developers who want it to come through and there are a great
many people who have been very vocal about their not wanting
it to come through. We are, this Board is not usually rail-
roaded into anything but we have to face the facts of life
just the same. We still want to hear from Mr. Latham.
Mr. Cuddy: We don't want to appear as a minority of one, but
Plsnning Boa~ -17- July 7, 1975
we really feel and you've been very generous with us listening
to what we've had to say so far. We would like to present the
reasons that we think it is appropriate for the road to go
through and there are a good number of them and I think Mr.
Latham will touch on most of them. I'll introduce him at this
time.
I~g Latham: At Mr. Schriever's request I did an analysis
of what would happen assuming the development is built and if~
the road is connected and if it is not connected and wh~t I~~
would like to present briefly is the assumption behind this
analysis, what the conclusions are as regards to traffic. To
review what I am going to say to start with, we made a couple
of assumptions. First, we assumed that the traffic is
proportional to the number of houses. We didn't go around and
count houses, count cars or anything like that, but we can
count houses. We assume that if there are more houses, there
are more cars. Secondly, we assumed that people take the
shortest route if they want to get somewhere, if they want to
get to the Main Road, or the post office, they go as directly
as possible. What this discounts, possibly, i~ the possibility
that some roads are more scenic than others or that there are
no four-lane highways that are more desirable to pass through.
We just take the shortest one. If you agree with these two
assumptions, we get to one conclusion which is really a
trivial conclusion. It is very easy to show that every time
you add a conneetion, you add a road and connect it on, the
total traffic goes down. This is obvious because if you add
a road on, it is obvious that somebody can take a short cut
and, therefore, the traffic will always decrease. That doesn't
mean that it will decrease on every single road. Obviously,
if you build a road, before you open it there is no traffic
on it. After you open it, then there is traffic, so it goes
up on that particular road but if you consider all the roads,
the traffic has to decrease. What we are now interested in
particularly is what is the effect on Village Lane? What we
found is that we estimate that Village Lane is broken up into
several parts when we add a road on and that, in general, the
effect will be less than two percent of the total traffic and
that actually on part of Village Lane the traffic will be
reduced, because people will turn off. With this in mind, I
would like to go through quickly ~w we did the analysis and
the results. First thing was to count the houses and these
are the houses in Orient. I have assumed there are going to
be nine houses in the development eventually and that two
houses associated with the development are going to be built
on Orchard Street. One thing is that there are many, many
houses down here on King Street and the only way you can get
to them is to go on Village Lane. You assume people won't go
on Narrow River Road. Now, you take this data and this map
and first we have to divide the traffic up into several parts.
What is the traffic to the Main Road? This is a redrawing
of the map in the neighborhood of the development. This is
Village Lane, this is the new road. Here it is connected and
here it is disconnected. This is Route 25. I have drawn the
roads with the width in proportion to the traffic. The way
Planning Boa~ -18- July 7, 1975
that works is you consider my house down here somewhere so I
have to get to the Main Road so I go down Village Lane because
that's the shortest route so that makes a mark. I do that for
every other house in town and, say that everybody all of a
sudden wants to go to the Main Road and they each leave an ink
trail, this is what it looks like. It is quite apparent that
you are getting the great bulk of traffic down to the Main Road.
We considered two cases, first of all, with the development with
the road opening. When~!~the road is open if anyone in the devel-
opment wants to ~et to the Main Road they will go this way.
That would be the shortest route. They have to come out this
way because there is no connection here so you have got to get
to this point. If you make the connection and tie the thing
together, h~t~eop~ople will go on Village Lane and the
other half will go the other way. For~ half the people it will
be shorter to go this way and for half the people it will be
shorter to go that way. What that does is that adds traffic
to Village Lane as you would suspect. It adds half the develop-
ment, nine and half of nine is five. That's the case of going
to the Main Road. I assume for the pnrposes of keeping
proportion that there is one trip to the Main Road each day.
It doesn't make any difference because it is the proportion
that counts. The next thing to be considered is the Post
Office. Here's what the map looks like with the traffic to
the Post Office. What this reflects is that there are alot of
people outside of the Village that have post office boxes. We
know that because there are presently 283 post office boxes and
there are only by actual count 130 some houses in the town so
unless people are taking two or more they must be up in this
area. So when those people go to the post office they come down
here and now we use our assumption that they don't make a U-turn
in front of the Post Office and therefore, they go around the
block and back to the Main Road. I assume if you come in from
town you have to go back to your house and I go to the monument
and turn around and come back again. The only alternative is
to go down here and make the U-turn. We assume they all go in
at the monument no matter where they come from and go down to
the Post Office and around the block. What happens with our
road of interest here is if you make this connection, you ask
how are people who go to the Post Office from the development.
We'll exclude the first possibility. If it is connected they
can walk. If it is disconnected, then they will drive around
the block and come back. If it's blocked you can't get through
there. The provision is, as far as I understand, that it is
going to be closed. Another thing by the Post Office of
interest is the store. What happens is that if you opened
the road here, then you can go around the block, around a
short block rather than go on and that will decrease this
traffic. That's also true of the people who live on Orchard
Street down in this area. If you live on Orchard Street, you
go to the Post Office, right now you go around the block and
back to Orchard Street. All these things are small compared
to the total width of the road, but nonetheless, that does
decrease the traffic here.
Planning Boal -19- July 7, 1975
Question: You have increased the traffic at this intersection,
have you not?
Mr. Latham: Obviously, you can't enter the intersection if
it is closed but these cars would ordinarily go all around the
block.
Question: But if you put this street through, this shows that
you have increased the activity of traffic right at this
corner.
Chairman: Let the hearing come to order and we will just
ask everybody to be gentlemanly. We gave the opponents a
fair chance to speak and we intend fully to give the proponents
the same privileges.
Mr. Latham: I don't think this is going contrary to common
sense. Common sense says if you are going to the Post Office
and you can make a turn before going to the end of the road
you make that turn. This is just the Post Office traffic.
We talked about the Main Road traffic and we will talk about
the other kind of traffic.
Dr. Moor-Jankowski: We are all the time talking about nine
new houses. However, when I look at this map I see a business
zone and I see here a service road to the business zone. If
a trailer truck comes from Greenport or comes by the ferry
and goes down west, he would sure come down Tabor Road and
through here. Nine houses are negligible but you are opening
to traffic to a business zone.
Mr. Latham: If you assume that the truck will not turn around.
If he turns around there is no problem. Tabor Road is almost
unused.
Chairman: The point to remember is the Town of Southold has
long since granted a business zone to this property on Tabor
Road and your comment about trucks is rather unfounded. At
the present time, if a truck went down there he would have to
go down to Orchard Street and either come back Village Lane
which would be a mistake or else go out Narrow River Road and
so forth. That's already been granted. That's in the past
and there can be a business development there and it is in
order and we expect it and have to provide for it. That's
not within .....
Dr. Moor-Jankowski: I just want to explain that instead of
going through the Tabor Road and returning through the Tabor
Road the truck will have a shorter way and we all know the
big trucks in Orient that take the shorter road. If there
is no going through the trailer truck will go on Tabor Road
and go back on Tabor Road.
Mr. Latham: The final thing we considered is traffic house
to house and basically this is done on the assumption that
Planning Bo~ -20- ~uly 7, 1975
people visit each other in town. We assume everyone on
adjacent streets will walk. We assumed they wQuld turn
around and come back. What happens here is that house to
house traffic, if the road is open, then anyone who wants
to go out of the development to anywhere has got to go
down Orchard Street. If you close that road, the main
effect is it takes alot of that traffic that was on Orchard
Street away. There is a very slight increase of traffic
from this development. This traffic on Orchard Street is
cut about a third from doing that. To summarize these
figures, this is my analysis of the total traffic effect.
The green will show what happens with the intersection
blocked. The blue shows what will happen if the intersection
is opened. The effect is, if you look at the top segment.
The traffic if you open the intersection, the cars on this
section decrease slightly, decrease by about 14. It
increases in front of the post office by about 4. It increases
by about 1 in front of the church. I think the s~mmary of
the traffic is that it's a very small effect. It's only
about two percent of the total. It's based upon the assump-
tion of one trip to the post office per day and one trip to
the Main Road per day and one house to house visit per day.
We didn't take into account, for example, the Bay House down
here which generates a tremendous amount of traffic or the
museum or any of these other activities. What they are going
to do is pump considerably~ore traffic on Village Lane.
Man: I think this is a good argument as to why we don't
want another intersection. There is already too much traffic
there now.
Mr. Latham: The point is that the intersection is not going
to increase the traffic. It will decrease it on this part
of it and this decrease is actually on the most heavily
used part of the road.
Chairman: Mr. Cuddy, do you have anything else?
Mr. Cuddy: That will conclude our presentation. We will
make a promise to you that we will not use the name "Orient
Village".
Chairman: May I ask one question for our information. On
the original concept there was stated that you anticipated
widening Tabor Road to 70 feet. We note that this sketch
shows 50 feet.
Mr. Schriever: When we started out with this thing we were
I suppose babes in the woods, ambitious and we thought that
we could present a complete package. Unfortunately, we found
out that everything seems to depend on everything else and
if we were talking about this intersection over here, there
was something over here that is boloxing up the works and we
couldn't discuss this and so on. So we finally decided the
only way to do this thing is one thing at a time so we took
the thing which could be done without any other thing and
Planning Boa~ -21- ~ly 7, 1975
we made the application on the development without any
changes over here. We did propose in our sketch map to
widen Tabor Road to 70 feet because it is a business area
and we thought this would be a beneficial thing. We also
suggested although it has nothing to do with this development
that Tabor Road would probably eventually be extended down
to the bend in King Street. We could suck about half the
traffic and this wide road would have a tremendous effect in
reducing the traffic on Village Lane. We felt seeing that
seemed to be a good idea, if this was widened it would make
it very much easier to accept that traffic without Village
Lane. I want to point out that Village Lane is 24 feet 3
inches wide at this intersection and pretty much throughout.
The roads that are required by the specifications by the Town
of Southold are 36 feet curb to curb. This road as shown here
is 50 feet wide and this Village Lane as shown is 40 feet wide
but physically when you get there, this would be 36 feet wide
and this would be 24 feet wide and you have in effect one more
lane on this road int~erms of width.
Chairman: Bill, would you be prepared and again the Planuing
Board hasn't discussed this, neither have we asked the Highway
Committee but would you be prepared to make, widen Tabor
Road to 70 feet or 60 feet. In some areas of the Town we
have the roads 60 feet.
Mr. Schriever: In the Town specifications, I didn't realize
this at the time I proposed, I'm not even sure it was in there,
in the Town specifications the next step happens to be 80
feet. I wasn't aware of this. My proposal of 70 feet, the
actual road width would be 50 feet. In other words, there
would be two l0 foot shoulders. What we are talking about is
right-of-way not the actual road. The main highway, Route
25, is 20 feet wide, so Village Lane is four feet wider than
the Main Highway. It is not really all that narrow. If
there are no cars parked at the intersection, there is no
problem there at all.
Mr. Cuddy: What I think we are saying is, yes, we would but
we wouldn't want it to be necessarily dependent.
Chairman: Bill, I just want to tell you that in the future
it will carry more traffic.
Mr. Schriever: You are talking about a 60 foot right-of-way?
Chairman: Yes, a 60 foot right-of-way.
Mr. Schriever: I proposed 70 because I wanted a little wider
shoulder~
Chairman: What I am saying is if the Planning Board came
back and said, we would like to have this 60 foot road in view
of what we think the expansion of this area is going to be,
you would be more or less open to it.
Planning Boa~ -22- July 7, 1975
Mr. Schriever: The thing that concerns me is not the width
of the right-of-way but the physical width of the road.
Chairman: We have learned the hard way that it's the width
of the right-of-way that is the important thing in the long
run because these roads will be rebuilt in 25 or 30 years,
but the width of the right-of-way can never be changed.
If there is no one else who wishes to be heard in favor of
this I will declare the hearing closed.
Man: Does the Board set a time limit on completion of the
project?
Chairman: No, bonds are usually posted for ~l the capital
improvements, the roads, drainage areas and those bonds are
usually for three years so you can figure it's always going
to be three years ahead and usually the bonds are extended
for at least one more year so we are talking about four years.
This is what Mr. Schriever says, what a house may be worth
today is a far cry from what it may be worth four years from
nOW.
Man: I was a little disturbed by Mr. Schriever's means of
construction, selling house by house as he got a contract.
This could run to ten years.
Chairman: Let me point out to all of you that this ~s one
of the things which has made the Town of Southold such a
wonderful place to live in. Just exactly this type of thing.
The thing we do not want and I am speaking personally I
suspect but I also think I have the complete backing of the
rest of the Planning Board and the Town Board. We don't want
somebody to come in here and buy a large farm and buil a
hundred homes just like that. Then you've got all kinds of
problems, school problems, highway problems, and everything
else. The thing which has been good for the Town of Southold
is to have individuals come out here, buy a lot, build a
home. This is exactly what we want. It has been good for
us. We are trying to promote it. This is strictly the
historical pattern we have had in the Town of Southold and I
think, without exception, it has been good. We do not want
people to come in and suddenly build even ten or twenty or
thirty homes. This dislocates the schools, the highways,
the community, everything. I will declare the hearing closed
and I want to thank you again for coming here and you have
made alot of constructive criticism and discussion. Thank~
you very much. (Hearing closed at 9:45 p.m.) A letter was
presented from Spencer B. Terry, Jr. and made part of the minutes.
Mr. Olsen appeared and asked permission to have a work

Vote of the Board: All ayes. Absent: Mr. Grebe.
Mr. Wickham requested a meeting with Mr. Cron to discuss
this matter with him.
Sled~eski minor. Rudy Bruer, Esq. and Peter Sledjeski appeared.
Mr. Sledjeski said he would be willing to sell Mr. Rose a
fifteen foot right-of-way but he wouldn't give it to him.
Mr. Wickham told him when he sold this property to someone
else he would be selling the right-of-way auyway. Mr.
Sledjeski could still give Mr. Rose the use of the right-of-
way in the center of the property. Mr. Sledjeski was
adamant that he wasn't giving anything away.
Quail Run Estates. Ben Mendozza appeared.
There was discussion about an insufficient area for park and
playground and that it shouldn't be broken up but put all in
one place. His cuts and fills on his profiles will have to
be balanced. The Board felt that the recharge basin should
be excavated and fenced and Mr. Mendozza disagreed because he
said the water percolates well and will go to the creek. He
said he only put the drainage in just in case.it was needed.
Discussion was held on a road connection and a catch basin
fifty feet from the corner and the water piped back the 50
feet.
