Mr. Raynor read the legal notice of hearing and presented proofs of publication from the Long Island Traveler-Watchman and the Suffolk Times. Mr. Wickham: Does anyone wish to be heard in opposition to this minor subdivision? Hearing none, does anyone wish to be heard in favor of it? Mr. Foster: I am in favor of this subdivision. I have no intention to sell any property right away. I am looking to the future in case there is larger zoning. Mr. Coyle: There are no houses there? Mr. Foster: There is an animal barn under construction right now on lot #3. Mr. Wickham: If there is no one else wishing to be heard, I will declare the hearing closed snd we will probably make a decision tonight. Hodor. Gary Olsen, Esq. appeared. Mr. Olsen said he didn't understand what the Planning Board wanted on recommendation no. 2 that had been part of the conditions for approval of this subdivision map. Mr. Wickham wanted to know what the developer is prepared to do on the low lots due to the fact that the town will soon be faced with flood plain elevations. The developer will possibly be faced with having to bring in lots of fill. The cesspools and the house will have to be up to the flood plain level. The Army Corps of Engineers makes their regulations stick by saying no mortgage money from federally regulated banks. It says the finished floor must be up to the elevation and the County says you must grade up to it. Mr. Raynor said that fill will have to be brought in for the roads. There was a suggestion by the county that a buffer be created and Mr. Olsen wanted to know where the buffer should be. He didn't think there would be any problem. Col. Ted Dowd. Gary Olsen, Esq. appeared. The letter from Lawrence Tuthill of October 3rd was reviewed. Recommendations: 1. That the 100' turnaround be constructed at the end of the 50' foot road and be shown as such ondae drawings. Planning Board -3- October 4, 1976 The Planning Board felt there was no reason for the turnaround to be constructed. It should be shown on the map but not constructed. e That the 12' grassed waterway as shown on the plans be disapproved. If this was done on both sides of the road it would leave only a 26' paved area. If the town would ellow it, it was suggested that it be 6' on Dowd's property and 6' on the town property. If the Town Highway Committee says no, it will all have to be on Dowd's property. 3. That the park aud playground area definitely does not have 32,000 square feet of useable area. It was recommended by the Planning Board to carry the park and playground area to lot #2 for 32,000 square feet of usable space. Mr. Wickham said he had reviewed the site at the rainstorm and there was no problem with drainage. asked for a copy of Lawrence Tuthill's letter. last big Mr. 01sen Town Beach Motel - Eppilito. Gary Olsen, Esq. appeared. This was a proposed division of property containing a house, two-unit motel and a fourteen-unit motel. The chairman told Mr. Olsen that the Planning Board is not allowed to approve anything unless it meets all the requirements. This is a matter for the Board of Appeals. Rich Young - Horton Farm. Mr. Richard Young appeared. Mr. Young said he had obtained a good water test. Mr. Raynor said the roads should be constructed to the end. Unusable space can't be used a park and playground. Mr. Young felt where the park and playground had been placed was good environmentally. Mr. Wickham explained about the seven-foot contour and said it will have to be filled. He said the chances are the developer will be forced to do it by the U. S. Government. It will be necessary to go to the DEC and get a permit and this is where the problem will arise. Mr. Wickham suggested combining lot #1 and the park and playground for a drainage area and recreation and using the drainage area shown for a lot. This matter will be referred to the Town Engineer and the Town Highway Superintendent for their recommendations on drainage. Planning Board -~- 0c'~_oer ~, 1976 C. E. Allen minor subdivison. Mr. Allen appeared. Mr. Allen showed a proposed sketch plan of property owned by himself and Mr. Kreh. Mr. Raynor said that Mr. Kreh had come to see him and Mr. Raynor had told Mr. Kreh that if the submission is made simultaneously it will have to be a major subdivision. After the advantages were weighed against the disadvantages, it was Mr. Raynor's understanding that the two would be separated. Mr. Wickham explained the flood plain elevations to Mr. Allen. There is an adjoining lot owned by Mr. Allen and also one owned by Mr. Kreh which have been set off and not included in the subdivision of property. Mr. Wickham discussed covenants for no further subdivision. It was decided that the piece held out by Mr. Allen is an old established lot. Paradise by the Bay. Roger Rath and George Stankevich, Esq. appeared. Mr. Stankevich said he had come before the Planning Board to get the bond figure to be presented by Mr. Tuthill but Mr. Tuthill said he had not drawn up the bond estimate because there were objections on his part. Mr. Stankevich would like to get a bond figure to the Town Board as soon as possible. Mr. Tuthill had presented more recommendations dated October 3rd and Mr. Stankevich asked if some member of the Board would mark on the map exactly where they wanted the piping. This was done. On motion made by Mr. Gordon, seconded by Mr. Coyle, it ~S RESOLVED that after the bond estimate to be prepared by Lawrence M. Tuthill for "Paradise by the Bay' is submitted, before the end of the week, that persons on the board be authorized to inspect it and take appropriate action.
