Alright, we have a couple of public hearings scheduled for tonight and we are going to take public comment on those a little bit later. In the meantime, would anybody like to comment on any of the other agenda items? Jill Franke JILL FRANKE: Hi, Jill Franke Southold. I see Bill Zebroski is retiring. I think that is a loss for the town. I worked with him for 5 years at the rec center. He is a nice man. He would do anything that you asked him to do. He was an asset to the town I felt. The other agenda item is 2014-830 and I would like to ask Justice Evans since the other two judges aren't here, do you completely understand all of the paperwork that the girls do in the back prior to it getting to you and after it goes to you? How all the paperwork is done and completed? JUSTICE EVANS: Yes. But this is about an unpaid court intern. MS. FRANKE: Yes, I understand that. But who is going to train this girl? JUSTICE EVANS: The justice clerks are the one who gave us the request to have her come in. MS. FRANKE: But nobody has a supervisory position in there, so who is going to train her the job or teach her the job and supervise her? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It's an internship. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: It's an internship, it's not a job. It is just an internship. She is just there for experience. Southold Town Board Meeting Page 4 October 21, 2014 MS. FRANKE: It is an unpaid position... TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: There's no specific job description. She is just going to gather experience in how the justice court operates. MS. FRANKE: But who is going to teach her how the court operates? TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: She is going to observe and she is going to learn by observing. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: As someone who was an intern once, generally you learn by working alongside other people. That is the whole intent of the intern program. We are not going to take her in and put her through a training process because she is not going to be a paid employee, she is not going to be a long term employee. She is going to be an intern. MS. FRANKE: Right. And it's probably for a college credit. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That's right. MS. FRANKE: For a program that she is enrolled in. but I was just wondering where you have nobody back there to supervise, were the judges going to supervise? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: supervise an intern? She will be working alongside the other hard working ladies that work there and she will be learning from them. MS. FRANKE: So basically they will be teaching her? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I would think she would be more than capable of learning by watching. MS. FRANKE: Okay. Thank you. Supervisor Russell SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anybody else like to address the Town Board on any of the agenda items? (No response).

Evans, Justice SECONDER:Robert Ghosio, Councilman AYES: Ghosio, Dinizio Jr, Ruland, Doherty, Evans, Russell Set P.H. Sinatra Land Donation COUNCILMAN GHOSIO: NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 17 (Community Preservation Fund) and Chapter 185 (Open Space Preservation) of the Town Code,the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby sets Tuesday, October 21, 2014, at 7:32 p.m., Southold Town Hall, 53095 Main Road, Southold,New York as the time and place for a public hearing for the purpose of adding a parcel owned by Richard Sinatra and Camille Sinatra to the Town's Community Preservation Fund Eligible Parcel List and for the purpose of accepting a land donation of fee title to said parcel for open space and passive recreational purposes. Said parcel is identified as SCTM #1000-22.-3-5.1. The address is No # Kayleigh's Court, East Marion,New York, located at the end of Kayleigh's Court starting with a dirt access which is a part of the subject property in East Marion. The property is located in the R-80 zoning district and is f 10 acres. The property includes existing Subdivision Open Space and a two (2) acre development area. The Town's database incorrectly coded this property as entirely Subdivision Open Space when in fact it includes a two (2) acre development area. The database error resulted in the property being included on the list of Preserved Lands instead of included on the list of Eligible Parcels. The Town is adding the property to the list of Eligible Parcels for purposes of open space preservation, similar to the criteria listed for the properties in the vicinity of the subject property which are on the current Eligible Parcel List. The purchase price of this open space donation will be acquisition costs associated with the transfer of fee title using Community Preservation Funds. The purpose of the acquisition is for the preservation of open space and passive recreation. As per Chapter 117 (Transfer of Development Rights) of the Code of the Town of Southold, Section 117-5, one (1) Sanitary Flow Credit is available upon the Town's acquisition of the property. The transfer of the Sanitary Flow Credit into the Town TDR Bank will not be finalized, and shall not occur, until the Town closes on the property, and the Town Board passes a resolution allowing the transfer into the Town TDR Bank. FURTHER NOTICE is hereby given that a more detailed description of the above mentioned parcel of land is on file in Land Preservation Department, Southold Town Hall Annex, 54375 Route 25, Southold, New York, and may be examined by any interested person during business hours. I do have a signed and notarized copy of the notice from the newspaper, the Suffolk Times. Also an affidavit that it was posted on the Town Clerk's bulletin board. We have the SEQRA and I do have a memorandum from the LWRP coordinator noting that this is consistent with the LWRP. Southold Town Board Meeting Page 35 October 21, 2014 SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Would anyone like to address the Town Board on this? Yes, Melissa? MELISSA SPIRO: Melissa Spiro, Land Preservation Coordinator. This hearing involves the donation of land. I personally would like to take this opportunity to thank the landowners for offering this important donation to the town and for helping in furthering our preservation efforts in this area. As you can see, on the map in the front, a lot of preservation has occurred in this area surrounding and around Dam Pond in East Marion. Over the last 15 years, the town and county jointly purchased the land that now make up the Ruth Oliva Preserve at Dam Pond. The preserve is open and has hiking trails. Also during the 15 year time frame, easements which extinguished development potential in the area was donated at different times from the Peconic Land Trust and lands adjacent to and in the vicinity of the preserve. Recently the Sinatra's contacted the Nature Conservancy inquiring about making a donation, the Nature Conservancy referred them to the town and now the Sinatra's have offered the 10 acre piece to the town for preservation. This area showcases how preservation can involve both governmental partnership and also private conservation. Private conservation is very important. One part of tonight's hearing involves adding the Sinatra property to the towns' community preservation plan eligible list as noted in the public hearing it would have been on there if we didn't have that error, it is a developable parcel, it has a two acre development area and similar to other properties in the vicinity, it would have been on our list of eligible parcels. Once the town accepts the donation and the title is transferred to the town, any potential for residential development is extinguished, the property will remain as open space. It will be there for open space and passive recreational purposes. The Land Preservation Committee reviewed this, they reviewed the donation offer and they support the town proceeding with the offer and accepting it. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Thank you. Would anybody else like to comment on this particular proposal? (No response) RESULT: CLOSED [UNANIMOUS] MOVER: Robert Ghosio, Louisa P.

Evans, Justice SECONDER:Jill Doherty, Councilwoman AYES: Ghosio, Dinizio Jr, Ruland, Doherty, Evans, Russell ClosinE Comments Supervisor Russell SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That concludes tonight's agenda, I would invite anybody that would like to address the Town Board to please feel free at this time. Bill Shipman BILL SHIPMAN: Bill Shipman, Horseshoe Drive Cutchogue. Last month I was discussing the site plans with you and you said if it became a problem, that we were going to come to you and you would help us again. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes. MR. SHIPMAN: Okay, well, it's a problem again. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We are aware. MR. SHIPMAN: So the Planning Board shared the information with you that I presented to them? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: The Planning Board, I would have to defer the, I don't know if the discussion took the.... Southold Town Board Meeting Page 38 October 21, 2014 MR. SHIPMAN: The videos and the pictures. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Martin, I .... TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: The Planning Board didn't share anything with the Town Board because it's for the Planning Board to review that. What's your question with it? MR. SHIPMAN: Well, Ms. Lanza, when I presented her with the information thought that she was going to share with the Town Attorney and the Town Board. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Okay. When were the videos taken sir? Probably this weekend? MR. SHIPMAN: October 11 th and October 18th. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Okay. I am aware of the incident that occurred over the weekend, we have been provided with incident reports by the police department and we have passed them on to our counsel and to the SLA's attorneys as well. MR. SHIPMAN: Okay. This refers right back to that movie Groundhog Day. Because we are waking up to the same stuff. We presented videos of the Hampton Jitney size buses making a left hand turn into the Zuhoski's driveway. I think I am back in 2012 and 2013 here because I have been saying the same stuff. Backing up across the east bound lanes of traffic, blocking the traffic. So the only way that this gets addressed is when one of us in the neighborhood call and we say something. There's bound and determined that there is going to be something that is going to happen. They have limo's doing the same things. And I know you instituted the no parking, no standing zones, is that correct? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes. MR. SHIPMAN: How should they be enforced? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: The Southold Town police department. MR. SHIPMAN: Okay. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Is it no parking or no standing or both? MR. SHIPMAN: I believe it is no parking, no standing. So on both sides from Depot Lane to Zuhoski's private road. On both sides of the road, you instituted that as a solution to part of our problem. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Actually, I think it's just that side of the road. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That's what I thought. Southold Town Board Meeting Page 39 October 21, 2014 MR. SHIPMAN: Both sides. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Is it? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: On the north and the south? MR. SHIPMAN: I have signs on my property borderline and signs on the ex-Helinski property borderline. So what we are running into is the Hampton Jitney bus size party buses parking there again. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay. We were aware of the problems this weekend, we responded to the problems and steps are being taken to address those. The police department was out this weekend, so if somebody was violating the requirements of that sign, I assume they would have addressed it. MR. SHIPMAN: Yes. By move on. So what's the sense of having them there? You put them there because that was, as the Zoning Board said, a very negative effect on the neighborhood over the last three years. So we went through you, then we went to the Planning Board, then we went to the ZBA and now it's another circle and I am back to you. You sent me to the Planning Board and I will share that answer and see how this goes along because that was an interesting answer. So that's happening now. My wife took pictures of over 60 some odd vehicles on site. That was also documented with the police department. The last time I documented that was in September of 2013, so up until September of 2013, they were still doing these violations. And then all of a sudden in the spring, they were violating their site plan again and then somehow, they got tent permits. So that is an interesting aspect of it. then in my neighbor's yard, who his property borders the thing, he makes a police report and I am sure he can share that with you very shortly, that several women were squatting and urinating in his backyard. So they left a gift. They left their rolled up toilet paper, some in his trees, the apple trees and some on the lawn. So, I have young children, he has young grandchildren, I know the majority of you have either young children or grandchildren because your children attend the same elementary school that mine do. So once again, we are being subjected to this. And then I went and did an inquiry on the liquor authority thing and I know Scott is going to roll his eyes because I say the same thing every time, but now it is updated. So effective October 1, 2011, they were operating under SABA, that expired on September 30, 2014. So I am sure that is just going to be renewed during their appeals process which is working on 10 months, so I somehow think along the lines somewhere there is a little of political play, not saying here, a little bit of political play going on and they are just stalling to get another season out. The same thing that we have heard. And then, in the same inquiry, I went to the whole Board meeting with the SLA which was on December 17th and during that hearing, Chief Flatley was there because he testified countless hours throughout Nassau Supreme court, Suffolk Supreme court and then back to Harlem for the full board meeting, it clearly says that their liquor license is revoked. With a bond claim of $1,000 and then they moved onto appeals. So, in 2014, we are revisiting the same problems we were having in 2012 and 2013, so on October 18th, there were over 41 cars parked in the parking lot that's not approved on their site plan which I would like to sit down with hopefully the Planning Board and obviously the legal interpretation of it and find out which items are being Southold Town Board Meeting Page 40 October 21, 2014 enforced on the site plan so that we can work with that. they are parking over 10 buses at Shulman's barn, they are parking there again. they are parking between the vines so now they have probably around 60 vehicles on site. So who do I ask, who do I touch base with to find out if there is going to be any action taken on the Supreme court injunction that the town currently holds? And I hate to be a pain in the neck.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I know, Bill. MR. SHIPMAN: Because I left mad last month.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Well, the reality is, this is only become a real problem over the last two weeks. We became aware of it, we have taken steps to address it. The process is slow, it is as frustrating for us as it is for you. The State liquor authority is very frustrated by this process because this whole case is sitting before some judge in New York County that is letting it languish. That is not serving anybody's interest but for the operators interest. They are trying to, the SLA is trying to shake it loose, so are we. But you know, the reality is that there has to be a scope and scale issue here. Now they are going beyond the scope and scale of what's reasonable. Prior to that, they weren't. They are now, so we are stepping in now. And I told you that a month ago when your concern was what happens if they start doing what they are doing, I said if that takes place, we will take action. That's what happened, they started doing it again, we have taken action. MR. SHIPMAN: But the only reason you are taking action is because I am complaining again. There's no random patrol of okay, they are violating their site plan or okay, Scott, and I hate to talk bad about our police department because they do a wonderful job, an outstanding job. So when the buses are parked on the side of the road and the sector cars are driving by and I am calling, it's a parking violation. I think you hired a new dispatcher because the lady was actually nice to talk to. And I am not trying to be sarcastic. It was, we have two vehicles over there now, we are doing our best to control the situation. Well, how I am feeling is you, not maliciously, you gave them the tent permits, right, so it gave them an opportunity, okay, they gave them to us, zinger. You got another one. They did the same thing in May of 2012. They shot everything down for May, June and then July 4th weekend it kicked off all the up until November because they knew that there was going to be no action taken by the town. All minimal action. What can they do? So you gave them something trying to be decent about it and they turned around and they kicked you. I knew that was going to happen. So instead of being nice, instead of being accommodating to these people, take a harder stand. I don't like coming here. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We have taken a very hard stand. We have committed a lot of resources trying to address it, I will agree with you that what looked to be a global resolution of the case turned out not to be. I think we negotiated in good faith, I don't believe they have and that is something we are going to address as a Board legally and otherwise. MR. SHIPMAN: Okay. So this is the point that I am at. Is the same things are happening again. So now we are documenting it by pictures. We are documenting by videos, okay, so when actions or minimal action is taken or you step out and you let them, negotiated in good faith, Southold Town Board Meeting Page 41 October 21, 2014 alright. So the only ones that are suffering are myself and my neighbors. So they are making a ton of money, the stuff that they are doing there, yes on a smaller scale, yes reduced impact however you want to put it but they are doing the same things with the pails of sangria okay? The SLA doesn't find out about that unless the local law enforcement makes a referral. The SLA on that Board meeting, I printed out two pages, there was something like 20 something pages of disciplinary actions. So unless the information is given, literally given to the SLA and I have been bothering them to use their own investigative unit, so if the information isn't related to them, then I am the guy that is standing up here.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: It is. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Mr. Shipman, the information has been related to the SLA, okay? Everything you have said tonight we are aware of, they are aware of. You have done your job to report it, we appreciate that. That's what you can do at this point, is to pass on the information to Heather in the Planning Board and to the police department and let it take its course. I understand that it is frustrating to you and it is not happening as quickly as you want but I assure you that a day doesn't go by in my office that we don't discuss it and things are happening daily to address it. So I can't make a court issue an order any faster than the court is going to issue the order. That is the way it is. I know you know Mike Ammirati at the SLA, I know you have talked to him. He is working very hard on this, he is, you know, I just got a copy of the letter from the Administrative judge of the New York Supreme Court who is looking into the issue. They are not sitting back doing nothing, things are happening, things are being done and the issue is being addressed. Everything that occurred this weekend inside there was documented and the SLA is well aware of it. I assure you of that. So we have to, we have to let them do their job. As you know, do not have jurisdiction over what goes on inside of there with respect to the alcohol consumption, that is for the SLA to deal with. I had a conversation with them this week and they are addressing it. So you know, as to the traffic issue, I have copies of the incident reports. There were some minor traffic stops that occurred, there were some violations issued over the weekend. Everything that was reported by you, by Mr. Zuhoski was followed up and there are reports reflecting that the police responded. So action is being taken and it is the season, there is a lot of activity all over the town right now. You look at one thing, there are 40 others that are very active right now. There's a lot going on and the police departments resources are called to all those sights for what is going on. And farmstands as well. So it is a busy time right now, there is going to be more activity at those sites but everybody is aware of what is going on there and it is being addressed. MR. SHIPMAN: I understand that activity is high. I have lived here all my life but I am talking about this in 2014 because I started it in 2011. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: So did I. So did I. MR. SHIPMAN: I understand that. We are suffering together. Trust me, prior to that, I never came here unless it was Boy Scouts. Because you are doing an outstanding job but when you come to this thing here, this particular problem because, I don't want to put it harshly, because Southold Town Board Meeting Page 42 October 21, 2014 you are trying to be the nice guys or you are trying to be cautious so Ms. Moore doesn't come back and sue you.... TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: I would disagree with you on that, okay? Because that is not what's happening. The Planning Board is taking this very seriously, they are not being pushed around at all by anything. We are actively discussing things with their attorneys, they know what the town's concerns are and I can't discuss that any further with you but rest assured, that all of the issues you observed and that you are complaining about, the town is aware of we are dealing with it. I know it is not going to happen as quickly as you want it to happen, sir, but it is being addressed. MR. SHIPMAN: Technically it's already happened because their liquor license is revoked. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: And there is a court order that allows them to operate and stay the revocation. So we can't do anything about that. MR. SHIPMAN: In a limited capacity. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: Absolutely. And they are operating, I would agree with you, beyond what that order says. And the SLA is aware of that and they are taking that matter up with the court. MR. SHIPMAN: Inaudible. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: But unfortunately, it's the same court that isn't quick to respond, so that's what we are stuck with. MR. SHIPMAN: Okay. Very nice. Thank you for your time. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Who else would like to address the Town Board on any issue? Joe Zuhoski JOE ZUHOSKI: Joe Zuhoski, Middle Road Cutchogue. I just happened to be the individual that the two young, well, I wouldn't call them ladies, girls or people, decided to use my apple trees as a bathroom. Called the cops, they came. Unfortunately, I was pressed for time, I was going to a fireman of the year dinner. I called the cops, Billy was there, we discussed everything and I even went over and talked to the owners and all was well and good. I left. Well, yesterday morning I woke up, I was looking out my bathroom window and what the heck, Sunday I decided to take my old car over to the big dump, to the car show, well, somebody used my steps as a park. There were two partial glasses of wine sitting on the steps of my deck. That put the icing on the cake. If I was home, somebody would have been hurt. I mean, they seem to be using my, I am just fed up with it. it is just up to here, you know, Billy, he is trying to do his best. They are not playing by the rules. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I just want you to really understand, that I understand Bill is fed up. We are fed up, too. And over the past couple of weeks it has just been, we are back to the same Southold Town Board Meeting Page 43 October 21, 2014 old thing. We don't want to have to keep re-visiting this thing anymore than you do. We are as fed up as you are. We are constrained by a legal process that we are trying to do the best we can to bring a resolution to that process. We are being held up by the same judge as the SLA and unfortunately, that's the landscape. But we are doing the best we can, we really are. I know it seems like we are not but we are. MR. ZUHOSKI: Okay, thank you. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I will go to you after, Carl. Joe Zuhoski, Sr JOE ZUHOSKI, SR: I am Joe Zuhoski, Sr. They are trespassing on my property. I am an ex- farmer. When I had cattle, we fenced them in. these people are roaming around from hell's creation. From one end of the vineyard to the other. Is there any way that they can stop from doing this? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We are trying. We are trying. MR. ZUHOSKI, SR.: I mean this is, like my son said, this is getting out of hand. People are going to think all we do is listen and somebody is going to be suffering in the long run. This has got to be stopped. Gentlemen, it has got to be stopped. It has gone too far. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Carl. Carl Deliteris CARL DELITERIS: I am back. I had a couple of issues and I just want to talk about, one was the vineyards. The reason for these vineyards, these doctors and lawyers and psychiatrists all of a sudden didn't love wine, this is a tax shelter. And it is, according to small farm act, because their income is sheltered as they put funds into the small farm. So they have no income tax. That's the reason for all of this. These are people, not love of wine. You are not getting an old Italian from there coming in putting up a winery to actually sell wine to make a profit. It has nothing to do with that. President Clinton came up with the small farm act at one time because the inheritance tax was so great we were losing all the small farms. They couldn't, when the farmer died and passed it to his children, they could not pay the inheritance tax at that time. so the small farm act came in view, which shelters their income to the farm. That is what this is about. It is not about wine. And I find that the town is almost a coconspirator in evading taxes. So I am a little bit, well, I have always been (inaudible)to be honest with you. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Look, wineries regardless of the motives of people that invest in them, they are protected agriculture in the State of New York. The state actually has changed ag and markets law to accommodate those needs that are a little bit unique to wineries and to these beer facilities. They are protected. They are agriculture. The town doesn't have the right to say we are going to allow wineries or we are not. We.... MR. DELITERIS: I understand that. And I am not trying to put that on the town that you shouldn't. But it is something that should be aware of for the actual motivation for these Southold Town Board Meeting Page 44 October 21, 2014 wineries that are going up. That is the motivation. Is the small farm act that helps, as you know, all of them are doctors, lawyers etc., shelters the income. So, I don't know, maybe you want to look at it differently, if you didn't know that or you did or whatever. But that's, I was just sympathizing with these guys, to tell you the truth. But what I am here about again is the same thing as I had before, which is the Memorial Day parade and I had something here which I will give you which was the $600 prize winning, 1St, 2nd and 3rd place, $300, $200 and $100. And I believe that we can get it done if we just leave it to seniors. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, I wanted to touch base with you on that because we have had some discussions with the schools, myself and Phillip. The, we actual had looked for a little while at a poster contest because it is visual, kids love to participate and you could hang them up here. The problem we had was, we are already engaging the schools with two different poster contests. One is through the Anti-Bias Task Force and then one is through the Tree Committee. There's only so many posters you can expect to sponsor through the schools. Also, the schools are a little bit in flux right now because of the changes to education. I think it is something the town is going to have to sponsor if we are going to move forward and then maybe offer it to the schools. We have a town website, we have channel 22, we have an ad in the papers. Maybe do it as something that is going to be sponsored through the town. We actually are crafting a couple of different options. We can't do anything until I bring it back to the Town Board and the Town Board says yes we want to do that or no, we don't. MR. DELITERIS: Okay. I was thinking of more of an essay on any war and limiting, because it would be very hard to be able to figure out who the actual winner is, if you limit it to the seniors, all of the schools, that that might work. I also got with George Sullivan and we have dress uniforms that we probably will get for free, you can have my dress uniform and his marine dress uniform and we would get the other dress uniforms for the mannequins, I don't know if everybody if familiar with what I am talking about, for the Memorial Day parade and the Legion has a 7x10 flatbed trailer that we could use. The only problems that I really see if where to keep it and like I said, I talked to Mr. Orlando and he would certainly be willing to keep it in the town with the trailer. So I hope we can go forward with something. Give me a call, what you guys are thinking about. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Absolutely. We had envisioned an essay contest. We had, you know, one of the things, you came up with the idea of seniors. The one thing we had thought about because we were trying to make it as inclusive as possible but then we would really need to segment it by age groups. Because of the, but I would hate to, not to sound like I am trying to take on more work, just to limit it to seniors. We were hoping to do it a little bit farther and wider than that. a lot of the youth, a lot of the elementary kids and frankly even juniors who might like to create some credentials for college, colleges they will be applying for a year later. Should probably have a great deal of interest in participating in something like this. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: I was going to say the seniors by that time, I have a senior right now and we are working on college essays for college, so the junior year would be better because that serves as their community service. Southold Town Board Meeting Page 45 October 21, 2014 MR. DELITERIS: I think you need to limit it somehow because... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: You are right. It becomes too unwieldy. MR. DELITERIS: Exactly. Too big of a burden to take on. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I just want to say for the record, I don't have a senior yet because I am not old enough. COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Wait a minute. You are older than me by a month. MR. DELITERIS: So that's where I think I am at now. like I said, I think that the Legion will put out in its bulletin, if and when the time should come I hope it does, for the rest of the uniforms. If not, we would have to purchase the uniforms. Uniforms are running, dress uniforms, around $600. Very expensive for a complete uniform. So that's why I thought, I spoke with George Sullivan about this and he said whatever you need, I will help you with. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Good. MR. DELITERIS: So I think we can get more than, maybe all the uniforms, I don't know. And the mannequins are $140-$150 each, which is not a big deal. And we are looking for some green turf to put down and a flagpole. And mannequins around the flatbed trailer for the Memorial Day parade. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: That sounds good. I know Vinnie has been certainly as supportive as he can be to help you however we can get this done. MR. DELITERIS: Okay. You have my number. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Alright, yes, I do Carl. Thank you. Jill? JI11 Franke JILL FRANKE: You may want to contact Major Grigonis on that. He runs the ROTC program for the schools. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Excellent idea. MS. FRANKE: He is really up on that. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Very good idea. MS. FRANKE: Major Grigonis from Southold school. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Jill had suggested we reach out to Bill Grigonis, which is an excellent idea. He runs the ROTC program for Southold, Mattituck and Greenport. Southold Town Board Meeting Page 46 October 21, 2014 MR. DELITERIS: I also spoke to a couple of recruits who (inaudible), something like that. This can expand and become something a little bit different than usual. MS. FRANKE: The other thing was at the October 7 meeting, you passed a resolution 815 and it was for coir logs. I don't know if there was a typo on there or what but it says with a minimum bid of$1,500. Wouldn't that be a maximum bid? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I can't, I don't have the resolution in front of me. Can I see that? COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: That's the minimum bid for the 75 coir logs. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay, these were, they were offered out to bid and we established a minimum value on what we are going to accept on them. MS. FRANKE: You are selling them? COUNCILWOMAN DOHERTY: Yes, we are selling them. MS. FRANKE: Oh, I thought you wanted a bid for someone, to purchase them. TOWN ATTORNEY FINNEGAN: No, no. We have them. MS. FRANKE: Okay. That makes sense. And also the deer issue, with the ticks. What's going on with that? SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: We actually recently had another meeting with the east end deer tick task force and local environmental groups to get them on board. I mean, I certainly understand the devastating effects of deer on our eco-system. We are trying to touch all bases, there's three key components here. There is the economic, the environmental and the public health risk. MS. FRANKE: I attended the meeting up at Riverhead, they had, like two Tuesday's ago. You may want to contact, I know the guys out here are real territorial and whatnot but Mike Tessitore for Hunters for Deer, they are doing a pilot program with Remsenburg. There is no cost to the taxpayers, it is all arranged, everything is all worked out. If somebody doesn't want a specific hunter for whatever reason on their property, he will arrange that that hunter doesn't go there, they send somebody else. It is just a matter of opening space to people. Within the first week of hunting they had already taken down 60-65 deer. They have now purchased a refrigerator and the guys are also donating some of the deer, like if they get whatever the limit, they will donate one of them whatever and they are filling up the.... SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Yes, we already have all of that in place. We have refrigeration, we have about 700 acres of public land that's part of the deer hunt. Half of that is county land, so all residents of Suffolk county have access to that. About half of that is the town and we limit it to town hunters and we have so many hunters that are interested that, you know, it's town owned land so we thought it appropriate to limit it to town hunters. Most of the hunting that takes place Southold Town Board Meeting Page 47 October 21, 2014 in Southold is actually on private property and we have urged Mr. Tessitore and others to reach out to private land-owners who probably would want them to come on site and help them cull the deer. Agricultural.... MS. FRANKE: I would rather Hunters for Deer do it at no cost to tax payers, not another $225,000. How many deer did they get? Like 100? Out of all that, they didn't ever get 100 I don't believe. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: I don't even know.... MS. FRANKE: For $225,000. That's over$1,000 a deer. SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: You are right. I think that the feeling of the time was that something had to be done and that was what was on the table. Recreational hunting is important, we never said that wasn't going to be a substantial part of the effort to reduce the herd. It is very robust in Southold, we have plenty of hunters that are participating in our program. Most of the private hunting that takes place, Mr. Tessitore needs to engage these landowners to be able to get the permission to go and hunt of those properties. We can't do that for them. Those are private.... MS. FRANKE: And it's not just the deer that are carrying the ticks. There's seven acres of woods behind me and on the side of me, as you know and we were loaded with ticks. I don't want to spray anything. I have kids and my horse and whatnot, so we went and got chickens. So we have fertilizer from the chickens, we have eggs, we give it to the neighbors. Everybody comes over and gets eggs and we don't have any ticks in our yard anymore. We are not using chemicals. So I don't know if that's, I mean, you can't throw chickens around everybody's yard or like out in the woods because then they are just prey for fox and raccoons and whatnot but it's something that people may want to look into because you could go out in the yard and you'd come in and have 200 ticks on you without a problem and now we have none, just from chickens. So, something you might want to look into. But I thought I would mention that, that you know, the season hasn't been opened that long and last week they had 60-65 deer. It's a good program that he is running. Thank you. Supervisor Russell SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Okay. Who else would like to address the Town Board on any issue?
