Charles Cuddy, Esq.
CHARLES CUDDY: Mr. Supervisor and members of the Town Board, I know that you at the
last meeting struck the M2 from consideration in connection with the Plum Island zoning but I
would point out to you in the version that I have of the agenda for tonight's meeting, in the
purpose clause, in the second clause it reads `And to establish standards for certain uses in the
M2 district to maintain access to the Island' I would think that should also be stricken otherwise
you are going to cause confusion and there is just ambiguity.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We would agree. And we will make that part of the motion. That
was an oversight.
MR. CUDDY: Thank you.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anyone else like to comment on any of the agenda items?

Albert .1. Krupski, Jr., Cutchogue
ALBERT KRUPSKI, SUFFOLK COUNTY LEGISLATOR: Albert Krupski, Cutchogue. I just
want to thank you again for having this on the agenda tonight, the zoning of Plum Island. It is
really important legislation for the history of Southold Town, for the future of Southold Town.
You are taking the right step and I realty appreciate it. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL.: Thank You, Albert.
Marie Domnici, Matituck
MARIE DOMENICI: Marie Domenici, Mattituck. I am all on board with what you guys are
doing and I appreciate your taking these efforts in making it come to fruition but 1 do have a
question about the cleanup of the island. There is some brown fields on the island and I am
requesting that the, does the Department of Homeland Security take responsibility for that or do
we have to incur the cost of that cleanup?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Zoning would not convey ownership to the town, it merely would
put a land use restriction on it for any subsequent future owner. Currently the liability for the
cleanup lies with the federal government. I know there are two separate agencies right now that
are I guess, battling the issue but I assure you, that is the sole responsibility for the federal
government.
MS. DOMENICL• Okay. That is all I wanted to know. Thank you.
Supervisor Russell
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you. Anybody else like to address any of the agenda items?

COtiNCILAIAN Rt_iI.Av1D: I irst ofall. bC161C I ttaC_ I would like to say some ofthe thanks on
to Al Krupski who two years ago said you know, we really ought to do this. And three months
would go by and he goes, you know we really ought to do this. And he pushed a little harder and
we started but the process, which has taken a fair amount of time and as it should have because
there are a lot of details involved. I would just like to extend thanks to our Planning Department.
That the, in the midst of doing a comprehensive plan and trying to keep it on schedule, that were
able to address this particular issue which some people felt was very sticky and some people felt
was very straightforward, 1 think in the end what has come forward is something that is certainly
workable for all the parties that are involved and I think that as you look forward. we really don't
know what the future holds but we have certainly taken a step in the right direction and I vote
aye.

IV. EFFECTIVE DATE
This Local Law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State as
provided by law.
I have a notice that it was posted in the Suffolk Times on August 15 2013 and that it was posted
on the Town Clerk's bulletin board on August 2, 2013. I have a letter from Suffolk County
"Pursuant to the requirements of section A 14-14 to A 14-25 of the Suffolk County
administrative code, the above referenced application which has been submitted to the Suffolk
County Planning Commission is considered to be a matter for local determination as there is no
apparent significant county wide or inter community impact and a decision of local
determination should not be considered either an approval or a disapproval." That is from Sara
Lansdale, director of planning and Andrew Freleng, chief planner. A letter from Mark Terry,
LWRP coordinator, `the proposed local action is consistent with the LWRP, it is also in
conformance with chapter 130 of the environmental quality review of the Southold Town code'.
From Donald Wilcenski, chairman of the Planning Board, 'Thank you for the opportunity to
provide comments. The Planning Board supports the legislation as previously stated. As
previously stated in our memo of July 11, 2013, the Planning Board along with the
Transportation Commission is recommending that signs stating no parking or standing be
installed as soon as possible at this location. Numerous safety issues related to parking and
standing issues on this section of the road has been documented. We consulted with Suffolk
County Department of Public Works at this site where their traffic engineer informed us that the
shoulders in this area are not adequate for safe parking or standing. Suffolk county Department
of Public Works is in favor of these signs. The signs should be located along County Route 48
from Depot Lane west to private road known as Road B on the south side and from the same
distance approximately 1420 feet on the north side. They should state no parking or standing.
See attached map for the recommended signage.' And that is it.

Closine Comments
Supervisor Russell
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay, that concludes the business of the agenda. 1 would invite
anybody that would like to address the Town Board on any issue?
Peter Terranova, Peconic
PFTER TERRANOVA: Peter Terranova, Peconic. I just want to publicly thank Supervisor
Russell and principal planner Mark 'herry for holding the holding the Goldsmiths Inlet
community meeting this past Saturday. It was a level of outreach that I think is quite
extraordinary in today's environment from any level of government. To take a portion of your
Saturday on a beautiful August weekend and spend a couple of hours, taking away from your
personal time to be with the community and share with them the results of some studies that
were recently done, I think deserves a lot of applause. So I thank you for that.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It was time well spent. It was a very productive meeting with a lot
of very thoughtful comments from many smart people.
MR. TERRANOVA: Regarding the content of the meeting, I have some thoughts that 1 put
down on paper. I know all the Town Board members were not there so I would like to give this
to Betty and if she would, distribute them to the Town Board.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Please do, Peter.
MR. TERRANOVA: The last item I just want to mention is, could you shed some light on the
new sign that was just posted down at Goldsmiths Inlet that says no swimming permitted? Just
showed up.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Actually, we had gotten a complaint that there was a sign down
there that had misspelled Goldsmiths. We didn't put that sign up but for some reason, we were
asked to correct it. At the same time, that is not a designated swimming beach (tape change)
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Are you talking about the sign that is on thejetty?
MR. TERRANOVA: No, there is a sign that was just put up yesterday I believe, according to
someone from the town. It was just put up yesterday. I just noticed it today, it says no
swimming permitted.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We have a company that evaluates our risk in order for us to reduce
our insurance costs and it was a recommendation of this particular agency that we post the
beaches that swimming isn't permitted, to simply post them that no swimming is permitted. And
there are many, I think there are 96 road ends in the town.

MR. I LRRANOVA: Okay, arc we saying that the end of Mill Lane and Goldsmiths Inlet is a
road end? There is a town parking lot there. Goldsmiths Inlet beach is listed as a beach on the
town website, it is listed in North Fork vacation. 1 am a little confused. That is not a road end.
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I think it is supposed to be referring to people swimming off
thejetty. That was the area....
MR. TFRRANOVA: No. no. There is another sign. there is another sign that says...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Inaudible. If people are swimming there, so be it but we can't
condone it for liability reasons.
MR. TERRANOVA: Okay. so is somebody going to be...
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is not a life guarded beach.
MR. TERRANOVA: If I skim there. am 1 going to rcceiyc a summons?
COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Shouldn't it say swim at your own risk?
COUNCILMAN TALBOT: Yeah, normally they say swim at your own risk.
MR. TERRANOVA: It does not say swim at your own risk, it says no swimming....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, we can certainly take that up with the risk management
company. To see if the wording should be changed.
MR. TERRANOVA: Okay.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: But there are underlying liability issues that we need to pay attention
to.
MR. TERRANOVA: That I fully understand. And to put a sign up swim at your own risk
because there are no lifeguards is perfectly okay. I mean, that makes sense. But to say no
swimming is permitted, I mean, what are we going to do? Arrest people every day that swim
there?
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Of course not. But we have to protect the interests of the tax payer
here.
MR. TERRANOVA: Pardon me?
TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I can check with DPW.

MR. TERRANOVA: Okay, so if we say it is a road end and because....
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No. we are saying it is not a designated swimming beach. That sign
indicates that. But again. your suggestion is something we will take up with the risk retention
company.
MR. TERRANOVA: Okay. I think your suggestion is good if you say this is not a designated
swimming beach because there are no lifeguards, therefore swim at your own risk.
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We will certainly discuss that. Good idea.
MR. TE.RRANOVA: Right now I don't know whether or not to put my foot in the water.
