BOARD OF TOWN TRUSTEEs
TOWN OF SOUTHOLD
January 14, 1971
Mr. Richard Nagy
283 Watchung Avenue
Bloomfield, New Jersey
Dear Mr. Nagy;
The Southold Town Trustees wish to acknow-
ledge receiD5 of your complainL regarding poss£ble
alterations to the existing beach" at Major's Pond
and would like to state that the subject matter of
your letter of January 12 addressed to Mr. Douglas
Robertson of Orient, regarding the matter, was discussed
at the Trustees, Meeting held on January 4, 1971,
by reason of another person's criticism.
As stated in reply to this other party,
the Trustees are of the opinion that the bottom land
of Major's Pond is private property belonging to
Douglas Latham or Mr. Robert Douglass and therefore
is excluded from Trustee jurisdiction. Since the
Southold Town Planning Board has authority to regulate
and Contr61 dredging or excavating when ~ertinent to
a subdivision or where it might affect the potable
Water Supply of the area, the problems of Major's
Pond has been referred to that Board.
Furthermore, Orient Harbor is not considered
Town Property but under State control and any bulk-
heading, jetties, or dredging would normally require
their approval or permit. It is also our knowledge and
belief that no permit for work, which you have outlined
in your letter, has been authorized by any department
of local government.
We trust that infornlatJen which ma~ be
forthcoming to you from the Town Planning Board may
further resolve your difficulty.
