Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 3
June 4, 2013
PETER TERRANOVA: Peter Terranova, Peconic. The reason why we are here is that there is
confusion as to what you want because according to, and I just printed this out from the Town of
Southold website....
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Hold on a second there, Peter. Let me just read it right off of the
folder. (Reads Local Law again)
MR. TERRANOVA: That is absolutely fine but then it goes on to say as part of the amendment
is that the parking prohibited hours at all times from the northerly intersection of a private road
known as Miami and Inlet Road, Mill Lane, northerly to the southerly intersection of Second
Avenue. In other words, on one hand....
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: It reads as follows: Mill Road which is on both sides at Peconic
from the southerly intersection of a private road known as Miami Avenue and Mill Road
southeasterly to the north westerly intersection of Soundview Avenue and Mill Road. And that
is what was posted in the legal notice.
MR. TERRANOVA: You are absolutely right. In other words, if you take Mill Lane, let's call it
Mill Lane instead of all these aliases. Divide Mill Lane between Route 48 and Soundview
Avenue and Soundview Avenue goes off to Kenney's beach and Soundview Avenue down to the
inlet, so let's use that as the dividing lines, okay? Your first statement here, okay, as the purpose
is you want to remove the parking restrictions from Route 48 to Soundview Avenue. Nobody
has any problem with that. Then you go on to say okay, you are going to remove the parking
restrictions from, in this case, from Soundview Avenue all the way down to Second Avenue. So
this is, I think people have got their norths and souths all confused.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay. To be honest, I thought the intention was to remove the no
parking from CR 48 down to Soundview. And then from there, because of the concerns with the
use of the beach, was to go by sticker only as we headed north towards the beach.
MR. TERRANOVA: I think you go by exactly the way it is now because what you enacted last
year, okay, has worked beautifully.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay.
MR. TERRANOVA: It worked absolutely beautifully. And from, while not Soundview, you
can even go from Route 48, actually I talked to a number of the residents because there are a
number of them around the corner there where Mill Lane, you know, the homes along the pond,
okay, you can remove the parking restrictions from Route 48 down to Miami Avenue. Okay?
Right? Isn't that, down to Miami Avenue. Then from Miami Avenue down to the water, Second
Avenue down to the end, just leave it the way it is. No, well, the people, in all honesty....
UNIDENTIFIED: Traffic going both ways.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 4
June 4, 2013
UNIDENTIFIED: And there are no sidewalks.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I know.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Ma'am, could you step up to the microphone?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, for the....
UNIDENTIFIED: I was here two years ago when we started the whole petition...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
UNIDENTIFIED: And it is all about the safety.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
UNIDENTIFIED: And if all of us and the other people that we didn't realize it was going on
until Sunday night, I am here to represent everybody. We have all had instances where we have
nearly been hit by a car, two or three times. Not once, more. And when you are coming down
Mill, there is that hill. There is that blindspot. There is no place to go.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
UNIDENTIFIED: You have cars, even if it is with permits, it is still a danger. You are opening
yourself up to accidents. People getting hurt. If it's from Soundview down to the inlet, we are
good.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: What are you saying?
UNIDENTIFIED: No, we are good with where the signs are now. You want to take the signs
out from Soundview up to Route 48, go right ahead. We weren't concerned about that in the
beginning anyway. We wanted it from Soundview down.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Understood.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Wouldn't that leave in place no parking from Soundview down to
wherever that is, Second Avenue?
UNIDENTIFIED: Goldsmiths inlet.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: No parking?
UNIDENTIFIED: No parking.
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 5
June 4, 2013
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: This is, a lot of the complaints about last summer when people were
having parties on the weekends or evenings and there were cars parked out there that the Traffic
Control Officers would go down there and write tickets.
UNIDENTIFIED: Well, we were told (inaudible) call the police department, let them know
when you were having a party, put signs in windshields and that would be fine. Inaudible.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: But what, I have to be candid with you, what had happened was
after we put the no parking in, we had so many requests that the police department said, look, we
need to know that we are enforcing the law that you passed. So if you are going to keep creating
exclusions to the law, then why did you, so that is an issue, one of the mistakes I think I made in
the beginning is I sat down with a group of residents and tried to solve this issue and I didn't give
it to the Transportation Commission. The Transportation Commission is made up of the police
chief, the highway superintendent, all of the people that would be governing the use of the road.
Their concern is, you know, if you are going to put up no parking, then you need to mean no
parking. Because you can't just keep giving people permission slips to no honor the no parking.
Otherwise, it is the unintended consequence of why did you pass the law to begin with? So, but
it....
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I know, we have been doing it. We have been doing it. That is what
we have been doing but the chief of police has raised the issue, saying if you are going to have
no parking, then you need to mean no parking. So what I will do is take all the comment you
have and all your suggestions you have tonight and certainly suggest to the Board that we don't
pass anything tonight because we might need to just meet again informally and get it all down on
paper what everybody would like. But it was well intended at the time to try to address a
problem there.
TOWN CLERK NEVILLE: May we have your name please?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Just for the record we need to have your name.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible
GEORGE ALDCROFT: George Aldcroft, I just have to say, you know, by putting those signs
up it has made a tremendous difference on that street. The sad part is we had, for many years we
didn't need them, then we seemed to have a large group of people that came down there with
dump stuff, we also had to worry about the people fishing, the fishing lines and everything like
that and I am one of the groups as a matter of fact, that June 15`" we are going to be doing
another inlet cleanup. I don't mind cleaning up stuff that comes in but I don't want to clean up
garbage that is left when people that have no respect for this area and that is why we wanted to
put the signs up at first. And actually it seems to me that if anybody wanted to, we could work
out something with the Chief of Police, whether it is parking with permission because when we
do cleanups, I try to put signs in the car. I want to have as many people as willing to work on
that inlet as possible. I have got ROTC helping, I have got a number of people coming down, if
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 6
June 4, 2013
we can take as much out of that inlet and help you clean, that is what we are trying to do. Keep
this area as pristine as possible but I mean, obviously, if somebody wants a yard sale, who lives
there, we have got to find a way that they should be able to do that. If somebody like a next door
neighbor has a wedding, they ought to be able to have that. I don't see why that should present a
problem when we have something that we are doing for the local people who live there...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: You just need to understand that local people that live there but that
is a public road that is maintained by the taxpayers of the town in its entirety, so if we just start
putting up no parking signs and but no parking for anybody but unless you live here....
MR. ALDCROFT: I know, it is like parking with permission, I mean, I don't know if you can
put the sign that way, you know, we have got to come up with some solution. If you take those
signs down, I am afraid we are going to go back to the word will get out again, on the internet
etc. We are going to have to go through the same crap that we went through before, with groups
of people coming out here, having no respect for the area. That is what bothers us. Not the
people come out, it's that they have no respect for the area. And that we have to somehow find a
way to prevent, so we continue to keep this place a wonderful place to live.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Let me just clarify something, this, you probably can't see this but
what is being proposed tonight that will change, this being Sound Avenue, from there to Route
48 is being changed to parking with permit, not a no parking. The part from Sound Avenue
heading down to Goldsmiths Inlet, as it is now to Second Avenue is going to remain no parking
and then the parking with permit from there on out as it is now. So the only part that is changing
now is from there to 48.
MR. ALDCROFT: Well, I have a town sticker, so I could be parked out there and I will be fine.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Last summer there was a whole different group of people from that
area that came to complain that we put up all the no parking signs.
MR. ALDCROFT: Yeah. I can see from Sound Avenue all the way up....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Just so you know, but I will take responsibility for that because I
have to tell you, our experiences in other communities as these beaches become discovered and
used and abused, what happens is, it is amazing how far people are willing to walk and they
seem to park right where the no parking stops. So this was an effort not to create a problem up
the road from there but to try to solve the whole problem but to try to solve the whole problem
and perhaps was overreaching on my part. I met with a group of people and I will take full
responsibility for it but what we have proposed now will be basically what Councilman Talbot
just outlined, that is basically what the law is.
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 7
June 4, 2013
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Yes, right now it is no parking from 48 all the way down until it
gets to 2"d Avenue.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: And what it will be is parking by permit only.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: And now it is going to change just from 48 to Sound.
MR. ALDCROFT: Inaudible. To see the exact wording because like you just say....
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Well, the second time, the paraphrase that we had was just incorrect
but it stated....
MR. ALDCROFT: Okay, we will get a file and then we will be able to make an opinion based
upon that, too. Okay. Thank you.
ROBERT DUNN: Robert Dunn, Mill Lane. You say we have now no parking from where to
where?
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: From Second Avenue all the way up to 48.
MR. DUNN: And then we have from Second Avenue to Goldsmiths?
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Parking with permit only.
MR. DUNN: That supposedly is only on one side. If you park cars on both sides of that street
there....
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: That is right, because it is a tight turn on the inside.
MR. DUNN: You couldn't get a bicycle through. So that was the first mistake. That was when
we first put up, there were signs put on both sides of the road, parking by permit. Inaudible. But
now what we have is we have four houses and only four houses, the whole length of Mill Lane
that you can park on. That is not fair. That is just not fair. It is also confusing, it is not enough
parking in the parking lot, that would seem to apply to this busy beach. Because it is a busy
beach. Why don't we have garbage cans like the other three beaches nearby? I have already
made one trip to the dump. The second thing is you guys all voted just three months ago to
exclude Goldsmiths beach from the list of bathing beaches, so I don't know why we need the
overflow from the parking lot at all. And if in fact they do, there is a place that the town actually
owns opposite Second Avenue, a little north and a little south of it, the town owns but there is a
shoulder that people could park on with permits should the need arise on those rare occasions,
Memorial Day, 4` of July and Labor Day. Other than that, the parking lot is never full, so there
is no need for that. If you wanted, as far as the signs, if you are going to have parkinghby permit,
you are going to end up with as many signs as you have now. Up till Sandy, at7/10` of a mile,
there were 77 signs, that's Bruckner Boulevard. So this really needs to be clarified, what you
said before about maybe a casual meeting on it, I think it would be appropriate (inaudible). Your
new change is not going to resolve the issue of the people who actually came to you last summer,
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 8
June 4, 2013
the smaller properties that are adjacent to the inlet pond, between Miami Avenue and Sound
Avenue, they have nowhere to park. No offense to anyone but there is a lot of people who,
politicked for this no parking. They don't live on Mill Lane. They live on adjacent properties,
with private roads that have big signs that say for residents and their guests only. The people
that live on Mill Lane that are affected by this no parking, they have no where to (inaudible) .
The four houses that I spoke of that right now you made parking by permit, we kind of worked it
out between ourselves, if we do have guests, we park in one another's driveways and it works. I
personally would like to see the parking by permit gone from those four houses. To date, it
hasn't been a problem but as we get busier and things change and they will, I don't want to see a
point come that I or my family can't park in front of my house, while the parking lot is for
everybody else, especially when there is town property with a shoulder that sits unused, I mean,
there is plenty of room just a few feet down the road, at the point of my house and these four
houses on the street is the narrowest point of the road and that road actually becomes a sidewalk
as you said a little while ago, from probably Miami on down everybody walks, bicycles, baby
carriages and walking, I mean parking really isn't needed although it should be there because it
does create (inaudible).
COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Just a suggestion, when we have our informal meeting,
maybe we should have it down at Goldsmiths?
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
MR. DUNN: No parking.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
MR. DUNN: No parking.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
MR. DUNN: No parking.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Bob, the parking by permit only was in place all last summer, how
did that work out?
MR. DUNN: The parking by permit....
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: By your house.
MR. DUNN: The parking by permit was put in place, it was put in place by mistake on both
sides of the road and we went back and forth (inaudible) and then it was just changed so you
could park on my side of the street with a permit. I was, if you were going to answer my wish, it
would be no parking, just no parking. Because if you want to have overflow parking for the
parking lot, there is an appropriate place that there is a grass shoulder on land that is owned by
the town and by the county a little south of me, it wouldn't impact anyone's home, it wouldn't
put any cars on the blacktop....
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 9
June 4, 2013
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: You are talking about the preserve that is around the block?
MR. DUNN: It is not a preserve, no, no. It is adjacent....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay, the other piece.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Can I make a suggestion, this because it is a formal public meeting
on what is proposed, clearly I don't think the Board at this point, I don't want to speak for them
but it is not likely we are going to vote on this tonight and this needs to have a little bit more of
an informal discussion, only because you can see that we are getting you know, when it comes to
cleaning up the inlet at Goldsmiths, we will get together and clean up the place in a day but when
it comes to deciding on what parking should be there or not, I am getting five different and it is
getting confusing. We need to sit down with the people that would be, maybe the police chief
and some others that maybe can bring something to the conversation. So what we can do is we
will just table this tonight if the Board will consider that and then set something up so that we
can hear all these concerns because right now I am hearing some different concerns. The
intention of the no parking was to stop the overflow from the beach. We have ample parking
facilities at the beach and there is only so much a beach can hold. The idea of the no parking
was to say, you know what, this beach is full and you might need to find another beach.
MR. DUNN: I think the idea of the no parking was really because there was some people who
were abusing (inaudible)
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Absolutely.
MR. DUNN: Inaudible.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right.
MR. DUNN: It was really between Second Avenue and Miami, was being abused. It is a jungle
there.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes.
MR. DUNN: So it was really (inaudible) and dump their car and nobody was saying anything
because there were no laws.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That is what we were trying to address.
MR. DUNN: And when they came home, when they went home at night, whatever they didn't
need to take with them, they left in front of these people's houses. No one wants to wake up to
that every morning. To be honest, that didn't happen in my house but I don't miss those people
not being there because on many occasions, they went fishing at 9:00 with a case of beer and left
the empty cans in front of her house but they hoot and howl in front of my house. So I don't
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 10
June 4, 2013
miss it. So I don't miss it. You know, the no parking is effective. It is effective and the fact that
it screws up, you know, being able to invite 20 people over my house, well, we get around that.
We get around that.
UNIDENTIFIED: Well, we all do. All of us don't have that much parking. Inaudible.
MR. DUNN: But if you are off (inaudible) as long as you are an owner.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
MR. DUNN: Understood. Understood. But I am just saying once you get off....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I am sorry....
MR. DUNN: Inaudible.
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: If we table it now, it is just going to remain as it is. No parking
from 48 all the way down to Second Avenue.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Until we can have an informal discussion. But I do have to tell you,
from a legal perspective, it is very difficult to put a no parking designation in a town code and
say no parking for anybody but the people that live there. so we do have to think about that.
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Understood. Understood. But I know we were issuing those special
passes last year as a stopgap measure because we saw the ramifications of the no parking but the
Chief is asking for something of a more permanent solution so we don't have to keep doing that.
And we will have him come, we will be able to work this out.
JUSTICE EVANS: It doesn't mean events like weddings you can't get parking....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Right. Those one off events. Okay.
INAUDIBLE COMMENTS
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: So what we will do is we will get all the neighbors and if you think
it will be, we can do this on a weekend or a weeknight. Whatever you think is convenient, to get
everybody in here to try to get this all resolved.
COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Scott, maybe we can do this at the site so we can all see what
everybody is talking about, so there is less confusion.
MR. DUNN: That I think would be a big help (inaudible).
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Alright, well, we will work something out.
Mill Road Parking Restrictions Public Hearing 11
June 4, 2013
UNIDENTIFIED: Inaudible. We have got to get the terminology right. Soundview Avenue
runs from Mill Lane down to Kenny's beach. Soundview, Sound Avenue regardless of what
the tax map says, Sound Avenue is at the end of Mill Lane and the private road running west.
Second Avenue is the next road south of (inaudible) that runs west. Inaudible. Words have
meaning, I know you all know that but if you thow out Sound, Soundview....
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: No, I think it was written that way. I had said Sound Avenue, it's
Soundview. So I messed it up on the pronunciation of it.
UNIDENTIFIED: You know, if you are not sure.....
COUNCILMANT TALBOT: I am sure, I am looking at a map, I see Sound Avenue, Huntington
Boulevard, Second Avenue. We have got it all. Fasbender. I make a motion to close this
hearing.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: What we will do is set something up in the very near future. What I
am going to ask some of you to do is just, we are going to need point people to serve as
emissaries, so I can reach out to all of you. Perhaps I can have you sign and give to us email
addresses and cell phone numbers and we will get something moving forward on that.
