Russell, Supervisor SECONDER:Jill Doherty, Councilwoman AYES: Ghosio, Dinizio Jr, Ruland, Doherty, Evans, Russell Opening Comments Supervisor Russell SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Please rise and join in the Pledge of Allegiance. Thank you. I would like to invite anybody who would like to address the Town Board on any of the agenda items to please feel free? Linda Goldsmith LINDA GOLDSMITH: Good evening, I am Linda Goldsmith from East Marion and I wanted to ask a question on two agenda items if I may? The first is on page 18 2014-591 is on the Bay Avenue bridge in East Marion, I wanted to ask if you could tell me when that would be started, that work and about how long that will take? I mean, it's great for me, I will have no traffic going by my house for a number of months but I am just wondering because we do go down to the end of that road and we do go down to the end of the beach and I guess we may not be able to for a while. So if you could let me know I would appreciate that. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: We are planning on starting it after Labor Day, so it doesn't interfere with the summer and the bid will have specific dates that it has to be done by the end of the year. we anticipate it is a two month project.... MS. GOLDSMITH: Really? COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: We have all the contracts in place to go through Gardiners Bay estates when that bridge is closed and we are going to be advertising for bids for the project. MS. GOLDSMITH: We will be going up Huckleberry Hill I take it? COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Correct. MS. GOLDSMITH: Thank you. Inaudible. July 1, 2014 Page 4 Southold Town Board Meeting COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: We are purposely not doing it in the summer, we are doing it after Labor Day. MS. GOLDSMITH: Another reason why I am asking too is I also worry about hurricane season and if the bridge is ripped up during hurricane season, if there are people that have to get out but I guess you probably have a plan for that? COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: We do. We have had meetings and we have included the fire department and the police department obviously too. We have included all of the parties that are involved and everybody is aware of the project and what the route is and they have their contingencies set in case of emergencies. MS. GOLDSMITH: The other issue I wanted to ask about is motion number 2014-586 on page 15, 1 have several questions on that. The first is, why it is being amended? That is just the first question. The second question is why does it say entry level and the amended salary is of January 2012? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Two issues. First, it is being amended because we had canvassed the list as a civil service title. We had canvassed a list at the earlier posted salary and we had no interested parties. We decided to increase the salary to generate some interest among some seasoned professionals that would hopefully apply for it. Secondly, the contract date is January 1, 2012 and the salary is trying to reflect basically the pay scale adopted as part of that contract. MS. GOLDSMITH: So if someone was hired in 2016 or 2015 which looks like your target date, would start at $88,453.17? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: If they were hired when? MS. GOLDSMITH: 2015. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, there is no successor agreement on that contract but under that current pay scale if they were hired in 2015 or 2016, they would start at presumably $80,000. Entry level. MS. GOLDSMITH: And my other question is this. I actually had wanted to take that test and it passed me by unfortunately, so I had called civil service and when I had spoken with them, they told me that the test was given in 1994, 2002, 2006 and 2014. So I asked them if I could see the list and they told me the list had expired in 2010. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: There must.... MS. GOLDSMITH: I spoke to Lorraine at Civil Service at about 3:00 this afternoon and they said the last time the test was given prior to I think it was the end of April, beginning of May 2014 was 2006 and the list expires within 4 years so I am wondering where you got the list to canvass? Unless you had an expired list that you were canvassing from. July 1, 2014 Page 5 Southold Town Board Meeting SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I think we are allowed under Civil Service law to canvass people that had actually taken the test. If I am not mistaken but I will have to check with John Cushman. I thought we had an established list. MS. GOLDSMITH: If you have an, the 2014 list is not generated.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Just so you know, Linda, we canvassed the list that Civil Service gave us. We didn't make up a list. They gave us the list. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Yes, they gave us the list. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is Civil Service that gave us the list. We canvassed.... MS. GOLDSMITH: Well, I will have to call them. Because when I called them today, they told me the 2006 list expired in 2010.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: You can ask them what list they sent us because we canvassed those they sent us. MS. GOLDSMITH: I will, trust me. And I am also wondering because I think it is bizarre that they are going to tell me a list expired in 2010 and then you are going to get one in 2014, unless the woman, whose name was Lorraine doesn't know what she was talking about but I kind of, maybe not. Anyway, and also so you canvassed that list and no one was willing to take the position at $63,000? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I believe we had two affirmative responses to interview that didn't have the qualifications in the municipal level to run a justice court as a director. MS. GOLDSMITH: Okay, because they told me that the qualifications were GED at the minimum and 8 years of experience in a law office. And forgive me but it is hard to believe that an entry level job with a GED would pay $80,000. I have to tell you, I happen to have a kid who has two masters degrees, 258 credits, two certifications, has been teaching 14 years and makes $80,000. I know that the issue is trying to live in Southold Town, I understand that. I am retired now, so is my husband. We were always self-employed. You don't think health insurance is an issue? I may look old, I am not 65 and if you don't think that's an issue, it's an issue. However, it just seems to me that you would wait until the new list was generated before you would canvass because I am sure at least 50 people probably took the test, don't you think? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Again, we canvassed the list that Civil Service gave us, if there is a discrepancy, you would need to address that with Civil Service. We also didn't start at $80,000, we tried to generate interest at a lower salary. We also have to look at comparable positions in other towns and try to select a pay scale that at least hopefully would make the position attractive to someone with experience. July 1, 2014 Page 6 Southold Town Board Meeting MS. GOLDSMITH: And I understand that, I do understand that point but like I said, Mr. Ruland has been on a school board, I have been on a school board, I am still on the school board and as he knows, between Oysterponds and Mattituck, there is a 30% pay difference but still you get people to work and you get good people to work. So I don't think that's a valid argument and I think starting at a level that only needs a high school diploma at $80,000, I wonder why I went back to college. But thank you. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anyone else like to address any of the agenda items? Yes, okay. Jill Franke JILL FRANKE: Jill Franke, Southold. My mom worked in court 52 years and I pulled up the senior court clerk position and I pulled up the justice court director position and the job seems pretty much the same. Can you tell me the difference between the two jobs because my mother was doing everything that was on that list under the title and she was making less than $60,000 a year. I know for a fact somebody that works in court now that would take the job and would be happy to have it. Because they are nowhere near making $60,000. Got any answers to that? And I also called Civil Service today and they told me the same information they told Mrs. Goldsmith. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I would strongly recommend you contact them and ask them where they got the list they submitted to us. MS. FRANKE: The list that you have, can we FOIL it? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It would be, you can ask Civil Service for it. They generated the list. MS. FRANKE: Why can't we get it from you? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I will certainly look into it and if it is available, if I am allowed to make it available, I would certainly do that. I don't know if it is covered under FOIL or not. MS. FRANKE: Okay. And I think it is disgusting that my mother worked 52 years here and I had to fight 6 months to get a moment of silence for her when she died and not one of you came to her funeral, Jill, you weren't on the board then and neither were you, Mr. Ghosio and I think it is disgusting and I am ashamed to live in Southold. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anyone else like to address the Town Board on any of the agenda items? Benja Schwartz BENJA SCHWARTZ: Benja Schwartz, Cutchogue. I have been working all day at another job so sorry as I am not as organized as I would like to be but I did see the item about the new position in the Southold Town justice court and what is the salary that you offered and then.... July 1, 2014 Page 7 Southold Town Board Meeting SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I believe the salary was $63,000, if I am not mistaken. $63,000 or $68,000. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: In that range, yes. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: $63,000 to $68,000. MR. SCHWARTZ: Is what you are going to.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: What we are proposing now is to raise the entry level to $80,000. MR. SCHWARTZ: From $63,000 to $80,000. And the town justices are making how much? $67,900 so this new position will make $10,000 more than the judges? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is a full-time position. I believe the judges are classified as part- time positions. MR. SCHWARTZ: The judges are supposed to be running the court as far as I know. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, the idea of this position is to give them a hands on director that can be there from 8 to 4 or the hours that are needed because they can't always be there, I think you are aware of that. MR. SCHWARTZ: It might not be a bad idea, I don't know. But to try and, you know, to discuss the issue, I am looking at the web pages for the justice court and I see there are three justices and four court clerks, so that is the current staffing. There is nothing to be done with those employees? They couldn't be reassigned or, you know, I think at least their jobs could be elucidated what their job descriptions, what they do before you add a new position into the mix. It's nice to know what the mix consists of. And I have never heard of creating a new position and then before you even ask for anybody if they were interested, raising the salary. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We did canvass, it was a Civil Service list that was presented to us from Civil Service. We canvassed that list. I believe we had two affirmative responses. Given the credentials and criteria we were looking for, we wanted to raise the salary to see if we could generate more interest from more experienced people. MR. SCHWARTZ: Are there more experienced people on the list? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes. MR. SCHWARTZ: Yeah? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes. Yes. July 1, 2014 Page 8 Southold Town Board Meeting MR. SCHWARTZ: Okay, because I think there are probably a lot of experienced people in town that either would be interested in the position or would know someone who... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It's a title position from, we don't have the luxury of hiring someone from the town, it is a competitive class civil service position and need to go through the civil service process which includes taking a test. It is not an at large appointment. MR. SCHWARTZ: Okay, going and looking at that list, who knows? The last I heard, you were forming this position but you were not going to fill it yet. That was the last I heard, that was the last.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, that's the whole process. You have to create a position and then you canvass to try to fill it. That's the landscape that is civil service. But we can't fill a position... MR. SCHWARTZ: You are trying to fill it but you told everybody that you were not going to fill it yet. If you told people you were going to fill it, that you were going to go look at the civil service list and that if anybody in the community was interested, they should let you know, then you might have more.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: But we don't have the right to make up our own rules. We have to follow civil service procedure. Civil Service has a list that they presented to us, we had to canvass from that list. It is not an at large, it is not an at large appointment that we get to just appoint anybody we want. I am sure there are plenty of qualified people but the landscape is set by civil service. MR. SCHWARTZ: I think there is a miscommunication. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: There might be. MR. SCHWARTZ: And I am not you know, totally ignorant person. What I heard when you created the position is that you were creating the position but you were still researching the need and thinking about it and going to be looking into what was going on in the court there. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: And we have been doing just that. we have been doing just that. MR. SCHWARTZ: But then without any informing anybody, you went and you looked at this list and decided that you weren't offering enough money. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: There is nothing new here, we already created the position in a public setting, we already adopted a salary in a public setting. We canvass a list provided by civil service. We didn't generate enough interest so now we are elevating the salary in the hopes of generating enough interest. It is all done as part of a public setting, Benja. And what we did is we created the position with an understanding that we needed to develop more information, July 1, 2014 Page 9 Southold Town Board Meeting look, there are a unique set of circumstances there that need to be addressed affirmatively by this town. MR. SCHWARTZ: And there are many ways to do that, putting more money into the mix might work. I hope it does. For everybody's sake. This building, the pre-fab building that you are planning on putting out a bid for construction of a, what is it, a wood frame, metal... COUNCILMAN RULAND: Storage building for the department of public works. MR. SCHWARTZ: Storage building. And what I have seen in the agenda tonight says that you are putting out the bid pursuant to specifications developed by the town engineers. Now I would have to be a mind reader or I would have to have time between the time that you post the agenda and the meeting to get to the Town Clerk's office or you know, FOIL a, request a copy of the bid specifications. But someone else might know something about this and might have some ideas. There's a capability in the software that you are using to post the agendas to also post documents. Why couldn't the bid specifications been attached to the agenda? COUNCILMAN RULAND: I don't know. MR. SCHWARTZ: Well, as a matter of course the Town Board is not in the habit of attaching material to the agenda which in affect makes this a closed operation and I appreciate all the effort you are putting into it but I know there are other people in town who would like to assist you and review what is going on before it happens. You know, once you put out bids, once you put out a job specification and then you make changes after the fact, it looks like you are either incompetent or doing something corrupt. That's the appearance that it gives. Now.... COUNCILMAN RULAND: Those are pretty harsh words. MR. SCHWARTZ: Well, that's a fact. COUNCILMAN RULAND: No, I would say it's not a fact, sir. MR. SCHWARTZ: Well, I would. COUNCILMAN RULAND: Fine. Then we will difference in appearance. Can we move on? MR. SCHWARTZ: Alright but you know, the appearance is that you are raising the salary for a position that you.... COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: What does that have to do with the bid spec? MR. SCHWARTZ: It has to do with processes. The bid spec? COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: Yes. July 1, 2014 Page 10 Southold Town Board Meeting MR. SCHWARTZ: How would anyone know, other than it's specified to be a Fetterville pre-fab building which I believe is a specific company. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Benja, it's a resolution authorizing an expenditure of money for an advertisement. The bid specs haven't even been prepared yet. Once they are, they are public record. You can request a copy just like anybody who wants to bid in. So you are just making up something that doesn't exist, read the resolution. It is authorizing the Town Clerk to advertise for bids for a prefabricated building. That's what it says. So if you want to comment on how to build the building, send an email to the town engineer. But this is ridiculous. MR. SCHWARTZ: According to the agenda it says a Fetterville prefabricated building. Not just a prefabricate, it is a Fetterville building. Probably a very good company but I am not sure that, so you are alright identifying a particular manufacturer and then you are saying with accordance with specifications prepared by the office of town engineer. That doesn't mean that it will be prepared in the future, it is saying that they are already prepared. And now you are telling me that they are not prepared? TOWN ATTORNEY FINNNEGAN: I don't know if they are prepared or not, Benja but if you want a copy of it, FOIL a copy of the specs. I don't know if they are prepared, if they are, you can certainly see them. I mean, what's your point? What do you want? MR. SCHWARTZ: What I want is open government. What I want is something called crowd sourcing. Not that the crowd governs, I believe in republican democracy or a democratic republic, that's our system of government. That's what you are supposed to be doing. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Alright. MR. SCHWARTZ: Okay? But instead, I feel like you are attacking me. Coming here tonight, I felt like I was going to be, you know, there are very few people here. I don't know why the people aren't here but I think that being more user friendly because the users that you are supposed to be working for, the public, you know, you are supposed to be doing the public business, so shouldn't the public know what's going on at every stage of the game? No, not every stage of the game, there are things that you need to do and get it ready before you present it to the public... COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: I frankly don't believe that the folks who live in town, the average citizens that we represent are going to want to or qualified necessarily to examine bid specs before they are even put out for bid on projects that most of us aren't even qualified to understand. That's what the point of having a town engineer is for. MR. SCHWARTZ: I don't know about that. You know, many, many people in this town own property and they have built houses. COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: And so have I. But it doesn't mean that I want to look at every single spec, everything that gets put out for bid. July 1, 2014 Page 11 Southold Town Board Meeting MR. SCHWARTZ: It is not just the bid specs, the specifications are one thing. If they are only engineering technical specifications, that would be different. But we have no information here as to what type of building or what is going to be involved or what it is going to be used for or how it is going to work. You know, I mean, if it is going to be a metal building with a metal roof, maybe part of the bid spec could be including various options such as the solar panel, the forms of solar panel which are part of integrated building construction that they bond to the metal roof and if you are going to do that, you should know about it in advance because you would use a different type of metal roof than if you are going to add it afterwards, so you need to make a choice. COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: Well, I think the budget would have a lot to do with that. MR. SCHWARTZ: And to make an informed source you need to have all the options in front of you and I think you need to communicate with the public what you are thinking of doing so that the public can consider possibly making suggestions to improve what's happening. If you are looking for failure, that's one thing. I am not saying you are looking for failure. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I agree with everything you say and I think whether we are doing our job and if we are including the public enough should be up to the voters on Election Day but I agree with everything you say. That's our job and I hope we are living up to it. MR. SCHWARTZ: Okay. But you know, Election Day is once a year. Believe me, I mean, well, three times a year for different offices. But I have been working for the Board of Elections so I am very aware of what the election process is. If the public involvement and participation in local government is limited to elections, that's, I would consider that to be a failure. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: No, it is a report card. The voters are evaluating the job we have done and deciding whether we lived up to their expectations, that's all it is. Ultimately, that's their voice. That's how they express whether they are satisfied or not. But I did agree with everything you say. MR. SCHWARTZ: Are you voting on putting the specifications out to bid without yourself reviewing the specifications? COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: We had a building before, that has been laying around for quite some time. And we put that out for bid, right Bill? COUNCILMAN RULAND: Yes. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: And it came back a very difficult building to bid on because it has been sitting around for quite some time. It was a steel building and the concrete had to be much thicker than we had thought, so Bill and myself met with the town engineers and we came up with what is called a pole built building. Different building, much less expensive than a Morton type of building to build. The concrete doesn't have to be as thick and it is basically a kit that comes, all the pieces and the spec is, I can imagine, inside an envelope that comes with every July 1, 2014 Page 12 Southold Town Board Meeting building. You know, probably every four feet they add you know, another four feet to it, it's not a big deal. So you know, I imagine if you really wanted the spec and you want, I could get it for you tomorrow. If it exists, I don't know if it does right now but if it does, you know, we know what size we want it to be, I don't know that right off hand what that is but we know what we want to do, we know where we want to put it, if you need to know that information, if you need that to be wholly public we could certainly make it public as long as it doesn't interfere with any of the bidding process. MR. SCHWARTZ: Looking at the website for the Fetterville company, they seem to, didn't seem to have standard buildings. They seemed to be very much into the customizations and the possibility of let us work with you to design a building. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: I think honestly, the beams come a certain length, you know, the piece of plywood is a certain, you know, all of that, it's all considered. You probably can't buy a building that's 23, you have got to buy 24 and then you go to 28, then you go to 32. I didn't look at the bid, I am telling you, I didn't but I know that we knew what we want based on what we have sitting on the floor at the landfill, because I know you don't like the word dump. It was sitting there for a number of years that they were going to use, they never used it, we thought we could put that back up and it turns out we could probably get more for it just selling it as is and then using that money towards this building which doesn't need even a floor, all it needs is, it could have a dirt floor in it for all we care. We are just going to store some stuff in it. MR. SCHWARTZ: Good luck. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: Would you like to take a look? If I can, I will get a hold of you and you can come and look at the specs. MR. SCHWARTZ: Of course. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: I will call Jim tomorrow and see what he has. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anybody else like to address the Town Board on any of the agenda items? Unidentified UNIDENTIFIED: I'm back. Is this on general? Supervisor Russell SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: This is on the agenda items. It is a pretty brief agenda, we can get through it pretty quickly and then I can take public comment on your issues. Anybody? (No response) V.

Public Hearings Closing Comments Supervisor Russell SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That concludes the agenda business. Would anybody like to address the Town Board on any issue? Carl Deliteris CARL DELITERIS: I spoke last time about the Memorial Day parade and I had come to your office and we went over a few things and you had said that you were going to speak to the school supervisors. I don't know if you have done that? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Haven't had that chance yet. MR. DELITERIS: Okay. So just to tell you that I would offer $500 in prize money to the essay if this comes about. My other thought was, for the parade, which I spoke to Vinnie Orlando about a flat bed and mannequins depicting in uniform, the branches of service and a nurse sort of with a flag in the middle and just have that on a flatbed to sort of depict the services that you are having the parade for. And that's my suggestion. The mannequins can be had anywhere from $400 to $500 with uniforms. I have been looking at a few things. That is my suggestion and I would like to know what you think about it? COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: I like the idea. I think it's a good idea. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: You mean, the town have a float and that would be the town's float in that parade? MR. DELITERIS: Sure. The town exists because of them. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Right. It's a good idea. MR. DELITERIS: Yeah and like I said, I spoke to, he will be able to help with that at any time he told me so I don't know how you go about setting this in motion or I am sure you will get a chance to talk to them, the prize money is there. July 1, 2014 Page 37 Southold Town Board Meeting SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, the issue, the discussion I thought I was going to have with them was an essay contest? MR. DELITERIS: Yeah, the essay contest. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: So it would be a separate thing? MR. DELITERIS: Yeah, that would be a separate thing. And maybe the three winners, you could blow up the essay and put it on the float or something like that and give them the money. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I don't think, as a municipality, I can hand out prize money but that would have to be handled by a third party which is what I would rely on you for. MR. DELITERIS: Fine. Yeah. No problem at all. Also, I don't know if maybe the town doesn't want to pay for it, if we ask for a sponsorship by some of the businesses for each mannequin. I was thinking you would have a black, Hispanic and a female nurse. These are the people who, and especially the nurse, I think it would be important. But it would be something in the parade that some child could say `what's that?' and it would be a solemn moment but it passes. So, that's my suggestion. I don't know where you go from here with it. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I would say, I know I owe you a phone call, I haven't been in the office as much as I like lately but.... MR. DELITERIS: That's okay. We have got time. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I owe you a phone call. We can sit down and talk about that. Some of this, to be candid, the town can hopefully assist in. Some of this we are going to need help, you know, that is why I am going to rely on you and some other people. You know, the ideas are great but we also need people to kind of carry the idea and execute them. MR. DELITERIS: I understand that. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: So, I will work with you on identifying key parties that we can bring... MR. DELITERIS: And that is why I picked Vinnie to see if, and he, to take care of it, store it, reuse it again, to be on the highway departments thing which is an easy job for them to do. And he fully agreed with me and liked it. So we are that far down the road, it's something and I am not saying that's what it has to be. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, what we will do is we will touch base and come up with a couple of key people that we can rely on to help us move it forward. I am going to look at some veterans groups and some others. MR. DELITERIS: Okay. July 1, 2014 Page 38 Southold Town Board Meeting SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: What I need is a small working group. JUSTICE EVANS: The veterans' should be on board too. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, it moves around from year to year, so I do want to reach out to them to make sure they are all on board. MR. DELITERIS: And just to let you know, I am a relative of the person, she does the auditing of the town and she does the auditing of a lot of the towns and she said that Southold by far has their books together way better than most of them. Just to let you know. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you. MR. DELITERIS: You're welcome. Linda Goldsmith, East Marion SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Who else would like to address the Town Board on any issue? Linda? MS. GOLDSMITH: A couple of things, I wanted to thank the Board for letting the Cub Scouts do their cubmobile. It was really cute, it was really nice except now I have a grandson who wants a big one that he can ride on. Other than that, it was great. I wanted to thank you for coming to Oysterponds school, Mr. Russell, your speech was great. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you. MS. GOLDSMITH: It was quick, to the point.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I learned people like my speeches more when I am brief. MS. GOLDSMITH: We did like that one. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: The briefer the better. I have learned that lesson. MS. GOLDSMITH: It was great. It was to the point and I think everyone appreciated it. My other question I was going to ask you is I had spoken with you not too long ago, regarding Mr. Stankewicz who had called me about property in Orient and the Orient-East Marion park district, the problem that we saw is first of all, on the south side of the road it's wetlands so I don't know who is going to want it. We have 55 acres of wetlands as it is, we don't need anymore. And the other two parcels are not contiguous, they are broken up by the state. So I guess Walter Strohmeyer is still sort of looking into it but I don't think that's possible. There's big For Sale signs all over them but I thank you for the information. I appreciate that. Next question, the tree committee, does that cover Greenport or is it just Southold Town? The Village of Greenport? I am just asking because on, and Mr. Dinizio you have to see this, by Horton's Funeral Home, there is I forgot the street, it's First and Main, no not First and Main... July 1, 2014 Page 39 Southold Town Board Meeting COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: Webb Street. MS. GOLDSMITH: There were no trees anymore and I didn't know if the Town, if that was a Town... COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: No, that's in the Village. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: That's in the Village. I believe the Village has a similar program, do they not? COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: They do. MS. GOLDSMITH: I just wondered why the trees are no more. They are just massacred. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: Yes, they tore them all down. MS. GOLDSMITH: Alright, so it's not you. I will have to talk to the Mayor. COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: They did receive Tree City USA recognition again this year. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Yes. MS. GOLDSMITH: Every tree on Webb Street for I would say, 100 yards is gone. I think it's all one piece of property on that corner lot but I am looking at the stumps, I actually got out and looked at them, they are not dead. They weren't dead. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Just to clarify, I don't know if the Village DPW, highway or if that was an initiative of the PSEG.... MS. GOLDSMITH: No, it was private. A private company was doing it. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, they contract out. MS. GOLDSMITH: Okay. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: They contract out to a couple of different outfits. I had a meeting with them just about a week or so ago. They actually have a fairly new and ambitious storm, what's the buzz word that was thrown around last year? Resiliency plan, which is to reduce outages in the event of an emergency. One thing I think they recognize is they need more public outreach. This plan, I got the sense from them last week that they plan on doing that. We have already had one instance where they were trimming a tree and this one homeowner thought they were being a little aggressive in the trimming. They went out on site and explained to him why they needed to do what they were doing and why. So I think they are trying to develop some public outreach. I actually have a contact if you would like to get a hold of a name, someone who has been assigned to this area to respond. July 1, 2014 Page 40 Southold Town Board Meeting MS. GOLDSMITH: When you said PSEG but I believe that's Greenport power. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Oh, that's right. That's right. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: I don't think this is that. This is kind of like the kind of trees that have grown up, like Dr. Richards old house. MS. GOLDSMITH: They weren't dead. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: They have been renovating it for the past year or so. It looks beautiful. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Is it in the public right of way? COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: No, it's all on private property. MS. GOLDSMITH: It's on private property. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Oh, okay. MS. GOLDSMITH: But I still, I didn't know if they needed permission to cut. I mean, they massacred the trees. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: Well, they took them down, they are going to take the stumps out and everything. MS. GOLDSMITH: Yeah, I understand but there's not a tree there and I just wondered why. And my last question is, is anyone any hired contingent on passing the civil service test? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes. MS. GOLDSMITH: So... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Provisional hires. Not just pass it but be reachable on the list. MS. GOLDSMITH: So if someone, for this new position you have created, if you don't find anyone on the list, which you say you did not at the current salary but you received an application from someone who looked as if they were qualified, you would have the, you would be able to hire them and they would have to take the test at the first opportunity and they would have to score high enough to be you know, to be kept on is the word I am thinking of. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: In other words, we would have to exhaust the existing list and declare it unworkable. I am not sure exactly what's involved in it. I think we have to go through civil service to declare it unworkable. July 1, 2014 Page 41 Southold Town Board Meeting MS. GOLDSMITH: So again, not to belabor the point but had that happened, you may not have had to raise the salary, you may have had qualified people that just did not take the test because I don't think there's a whole, whole bunch of these jobs available. And I think there are qualified people that just did not get the opportunity to take the test and may have very well applied for this position and would have taken it at that salary. Thank you. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Who else would like to address the Town Board? Councilman James Dinizio,Jr. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: I would like to read a letter if I could? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Please. COUNCILMAN DINIZIO: This is addressed to James Bunchuk, Solid Waste Coordinator. Dear Jim, the reason for this letter is to tell you about an encounter I had with one of your employees, Mike Anasagasti, which occurred at the landfill on Sunday, June 22, 2014. On that particular day, I was offloading some I & D, I was offloading some yard waste while Mike was busy moving debris around with his payloader. He must have noticed something about the material I was dumping because he took a couple of minutes to observe me. Eventually he stopped next to me, opened his door and proceeded to enlighten me about the harmful effects that rocks have on the town's expensive tub grinder. He explained to me that if I had any rocks in the material that I was dumping, that I should separate them from the material and dump them over near the leaves in the pile as those leaves are not ground. I could hear in his voice the deep concern for the equipment that he works with every day and the need to preserve it. I want to say thank you to Mike, for caring enough to approach me to educate me on the proper disposal of the material. He is truly an asset to this town. He should be a role model for all town employees to follow. A copy of this letter shall be placed in his file. Sincerely, James Dinizio, Jr. Southold Town Councilman. I have got to say, this, it was a pleasure, to see a guy that is not used to talking to people, he would just rather be pushing stuff around and around with his payloader, to actually take the time to educate me. I wasn't wrong in anything I was doing but he kind of thought I was and I just wanted everyone to know that. I appreciate that and I want the townspeople to know that there are people in town, Town Hall, that work very hard at what they do. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Thank you.
