A correction to the Minutes of February 24, 1997. Fred Lee did not vote
on the Gatz/McDowell property.
The committee discussed the possibility of the Town hiring a consultant to
help the committee with prospective sellers of development rights. The
major part of the job is to give tax advice, which the committee is not
prepared to do. The committee reviewed the Peconic Land Trust's contract
with the Town of Southampton. A motion was made by Tom Madigan and
seconded by Fred Lee to have Joe Gold speak to the Town Board re: the
Town retaining a consultant to assist the committee in developing a larger
basis of applications for the program. All were in favor.
Tim Caufield of the Peconic Land Trust gave the committee an update on
the fort Corchaug property.
The committee discussed the Anthony Aliperti appraisal. The long narrow
farm would be very expensive to develop. Therefore, the development
rights are worth less. Also, Mr. Aliperti removed the road frontage. Joe
will speak to Mr. Aliperti about putting the road frontage back in. If he
is willing to put it back in, a motion was made by Tom Madigan and seconded
by Fred Lee to offer him the appraisal price of $6000.00 per acre. All were
in favor.
The committee reviewed the Edward and Rita Brown appraisal. A motion was
made by Fred Lee and seconded by Jim Rich to offer the Browns the appraisal
price of $6000.00 per acre. All were in favor.
The committee discussed the Eickoff appraisal. The property has been sold
to Ralph Pugliese. Joe will speak to Andy Stype to get the sale price.
The committee reviewed the applications of Christian Baiz. One property
is located on Ackerly Pond Lane, Southold and the other is on the Main
Road in Southold. A motion was made by Fred I-ee and seconded by Tom
Madigan to recommend to the Town Board that Andy Stype be hired to
appraise these two parcels at a fee of $2000.00. All were in favor.
The committee discussed William and Theresa Ackermann's application,
Middle Road, Cutchogue. Two parcels were submitted but the committee
is not really interested in the small 3 acre parcel. Joe will check with
the owners. A motion was made by Tom Madigan and seconded by Jim
Rich to recommend to the Town [~oard that David Wimpelberg be contracted
to appraise this property for $1000.00. All were in favor.
