4:34 p.m. - Guada.qno, Patrick - This proposal is for a standard subdivision of a 10-

1.5-acre building envelope and 6 acres of open space subject to a Conservation Open

Donald Wilcenski: At this time, anyone from the audience who would like to speak to
the Planning Board, please step forward, state and write your name and address for the
record.
Anthony Tohill, Esq.: Good afternoon Mr. Chairman and members of the Board. I am
here representing Patrick Guadagno who is right here behind me. He just arrived on an
airplane from Singapore, a 19-hour non-stop flight. So, if he says anything funny or
acts strange, he does have a reason the rest of us don't. In any event, you have the
Affidavit of Posting, you have the Affidavits of Mailing, green cards and certified mail
receipts are in. The sign was still up out on the read this afternoon about an hour ago.
I went out to look. The trees have been installed along the street, along the (inaudible),
the fire well has been installed, the plat is at the Health Department awaiting their
signature. Otherwise it has been completed. The Supervisor was authorized on
January 31 to sign the Open Space Conservation Easement. So I think we are finally
there. That's all I have to say. We are here to answer any questions that either any of
the Board members or staff or any of the neighbors might have.
Don Wilcenski: Thank you. At this time, is there anybody else from the audience who
would like to address the public hearing on the Patrick Guadagno subdivision? Yes?
Diane Bratcher, 267 Younqs Road, Orient: I am here on behalf of myself as well as
one of the neighbors of the properties adjoining Mr. Guadagno's. She was not able to
be here today and asked that I just come. Basically I have a couple of questions and
I'm hoping the answers will be simple. I have several questions: before I go into them
should I just lay them all out and then somebody try to answer them, or will we do them
one at a time?
Don Wilcenski: why don't we do one at a time?
Southold Town Planning Board Pa.qe Four February 6, 2012
Diane Bratcher: OK. Was Mr. Guadagno's proposed six-acre Open Space
Conservation Easement required by the Town, or was this donated essentially by Mr.
Guadagno?
Mark Terry: Required.
Diane Bratcher: OK. And then, is the Open Space Conservation Easement forever--is
it perpetual?
Don Wilcenski: Yes.
Diane Bratcher: OK. Is the Conservation Easement tied perpetually to the 2.5-acre lot,
too? Or at some time in the future could they be separated?
Mark Terry: It's tied to the lot.
Diane Bratcher: Who holds development rights for the six-acre Conservation Open
Space? Would that be the Town?
Don Wilcenski: The Town.
Diane Bratcher: OK. What are the allowed and not allowed uses on the six-acre
Conservation Easement.
Mark Terry: Mostly the allowed uses are agriculture uses at this point.
Diane Bratcher: And open space.
Mark Terry: Or open space fallow field which (inaudible) now.
Diane Bratcher: Is there any specificity in terms of what the allowed agricultural uses
are? Or is it just any agriculture use?
Mark Terry: Well, it's pretty broad, but there are some exclusions, such as livestock
farms and things like that.
Diane Bratcher: Would be excluded.
Mark Terry: Yes. There's a limit on structures. In this particular application, the
Planning Board designed a building area behind Lot 1 where a small barn could be
placed for agricultural purposes.
Southold Town Planninq Board Pa.qe Five February 6, 2012
Diane Bratcher: And who is responsible for enfoming the restrictions and allowable
uses on the Conservation Easement?
Mark Terry: The Town.
Diane Bratcher: Perhaps the owner can answer this or maybe you already have this
and its part of the public record and the submission: what are the owner's intended
uses for the six acres of open space? Has that been expressed at this time?
Don Wilcenski: No. It's basically up to Mr. Guadagno.
Diane Bratcher: And by plans showing an intended location for an agricultural barn,
does this express the owner's intention to actually farm the property or to lease the
property to other farmers in the community?
Don Wilcenski: Well, Mr. Guadagno was at one of our work sessions and he expressed
that he had no intentions of doing any leasing of the land at this time. What we did was
to create a scenic byway. We restricted the area if he intended to build an agricultural
building behind that lot so it wouldn't be disruptive to the view. Mr. Guadagno, if I am
speaking out of line, would you like to answer that question: do you have any intentions
of use?
Diane Bratcher: So, right now there is no expressed intention to lease the property or
necessarily to farm it, but if he--Mr. Guadagno--thought it appropriate or wanted to do
that at some time in the future, he would be allowed to farm it or lease it within the
certain restricted farming uses.
Don Wilcenski: That's correct, yes.
Diane Bratcher: Thank you.
Don Wilcenski: Thank you. Anybody else from the audience? Yes?
Glynis Berry, 24190 Main Road, Orient: I live on the other side of the field. My property
is only separated from that lot by a few feet. I have sympathy with the owner. I know
the owner always wants to do whatever his dream is with the property. But we are in
the middle of doing a Comprehensive Plan and we are also looking at Community
Character. This area was traditionally farmed and it's actually listed with the State as
being part of an agricultural district. Traditionally, Orient was developed on the streets
with small lots on the streets and then the open fields. What we are starting to see is
an erosion of that spatial concept in the village. It happened in another field and now
this is happing where you are starting to do frag lots and you are starting to build in the
Southold Town Planninq Board PaRe Six February 6, 2012
interior of these lots. So, it's kind of like if you admire a mountain and instead of being
on the road and looking at the mountain so everybody could look at the mountain, you
build a house on the face of the mountain. So, what's happening here is that the house
is being placed right in the center of what was a totally flat farm field that went from flat
road to (inaudible) from 24 down to Orchard. But because of these lines of property
ownership, that sense of place is being changed. In Southampton they had this issue
where when you started to subdivide, the houses started going into the middle of what
our flat planted. It doesn't have as much of an impact when there's a slope. But when
it's totally fiat and you put a large object right in the middle, it basically has destroyed a
much larger area. So I guess I would ask that if the farm land could be in the center of
that large area in the back of the lot. I think, therefore, if everybody's back lots were
kind of kept that way you would have a sense of a much larger space than the little
pieces. So that's what I'm asking you to consider. I also think this is an important issue
to bring up with the Comprehensive Plan because these small decisions start eroding
what is a spatial traditional format of development and if we are going to develop to a
higher density, then maybe we need to put another street in. A decision has to be
made: where do we want farm land? Where do we want open space? Where do we
want construction? This is right adjacent--it's right on the border of where the
traditional spatial concepts are and where it's starting to break down. So it actually is a
critical area for Orient. I really think this should be put off until this is hashed out in the
Comprehensive Plan. I understand that the person is doing a good thing with
conserving land, but I don't think it respects the spatial aspects that were there.
Don Wilcenski: Mrs. Berry, I think that the Planning Board and the staff have done a
very good job working with the applicant and the owner on this project. It has gone
back and forth several times. We had the possibility of putting four building lots on that
parcel and we worked with him; and there's a little give and take when we are looking at
yield on that size property. It could be four homes there and then it wouldn't probably
perhaps be as ...... there are probably more people in here right now. And as far as the
Comprehensive Plan goes, a lot of these issues are in the Plan and will be put into the
Plan and that's still in the works also, but we can't stop an application that's before us.
We have to keep the Comprehensive Plan moving as well keep the applications
moving. We take your comments seriously and I think we have addressed most of
those over the last several months.
Glynis Berry: Putting the main structure in the center of the large field I don't think is
necessarily the best way to develop that site. You could have four houses right on the
(inaudible) road. So, I'm not 100% sure...
Don Wilcenski: We are looking at scenic byways on the road frontage, and having
open space is a priority of the Community Character Chapter.
Southold Town Planninq Board Pa.qe Seven February 6, 2012
Glynis Berry: But this doesn't do that don't think. It's a spatial concept that I think
really needs to be looked at and you could look at Southampton for this issue because I
think they started to deal with it. It's kind of a shame. Because it will be another farm
field. And also if you are looking at farming, it means the farmed areas are going to be
cut up and they are not going to be as practical for farming. Very often a farmer could
lease four different properties, but now you are creating a little piece here, a little piece
here, and it no longer becomes viable even for farming unless it's a very small
operation.
Don Wilcenski: Thank you for your comments. Anybody else from the Board who
would like to address Mrs. Berry's comments? Anybody else from the audience who
would like to speak on the Patrick Guadagno subdivision? Anybody from the Board or
staff have anything to add to this public hearing? Hearing none ....

parcel into two lots, where Lot 1= 1.7 acres (74,027 sq. ft.) and Lot 2 = 3.9 acres
(169,022 sq. ft.) in the R-80 Zoning District; and
WHEREAS, a Sketch Plan Application was submitted on June 16, 2009; and
WHEREAS, on July 11,2011, the Southold Town Planning Board granted Sketch Plan
Approval upon the map prepared by L.K. McLean Associates, P.C., entitled "Eve

revised June 30,2011; and
WHEREAS, upon further review, a discrepancy was found between the above Sketch
Plan and a previous plan, dated March 29, 2009, and entitled "Eve Winston Property
Sketch Plan - Minor Subdivision". The March 29th plan depicted the location of the
Coastal Erosion Hazard Area (CEHA) line and stated the non-buildable area as 79,932
sq. ft. The Sketch Plan submitted for approval omitted the CEHA line and stated the
unbuildable area as 75,028 sq. ft. The applicant was notified that the CEHA line is
required to be shown on the Sketch Plan, and that land seaward of this line is
considered unbuildable and does not count towards lot area; and
WHEREAS, on July 25, 2011, the Planning Board reviewed the two plans referenced
above at their Work Session and determined that the Sketch Plan upon which approval
was granted on July 11,2011 was not valid because it did not correctly identify the

WHEREAS, at their February 6, 2012 Work Session, the Planning Board reviewed the
revised Sketch Plans and the ZBA decision granting the area variance and determined
the application was ready for a Sketch Plan determination; be it therefore
RESOLVED, that the Southold Town Planning Board hereby grants Sketch Plan
Approval upon the map prepared by LK. McLean Associates, P.C. entitled "Eve
