83:11 03-01-2013
§ 111-4 COASTAL EROSION HAZARD AREAS § 111-6
these structures are not prematurely destroyed or damaged due to improper siting, as well
as to prevent damage to natural protective features and other natural resources.
D. Restrict public investment in services, facilities or activities which are likely to
encourage new permanent development in erosion hazard areas.
E. Regulate the construction of erosion protection structures in coastal areas subject to
serious erosion to assure that when the construction of erosion protection structures is
justified, their construction and operation will minimize or prevent damage or destruction
to man-made property, private and public property, natural protective features and other
natural resources.
§ 111-5. Findings.
The Town of Southold finds that the coastal erosion hazard area:
A. Is prone to erosion from the action of the Long Island Sound, Gardiners Bay, Long
Beach Bay and Orient Harbor. Such erosion may be caused by the action of waves,
currents running along the shore and wind -driven water and ice. Such areas are also
prone to erosion caused by the wind, runoff of rainwater along the surface of the land or
groundwater seepage, as well as by human activities such as construction, navigation and
certain forms of recreation.
B. Experiences coastal erosion which causes extensive damage to publicly and privately
owned property and to natural resources, as well as endangers human lives. When this
occurs, individuals and private businesses suffer significant economic losses, as do the
Town and the state, either directly through property damage or indirectly through loss of
economic return. Large public expenditures may also be necessitated for the removal of
debris and damaged structures and replacement of essential public facilities and services.
C. Experiences erosion -related problems that are often contributed to by building without
considering the potential for damage to property, by undertaking activities which destroy
natural protective features such as dunes or vegetation, by building structures intended
for erosion prevention which may exacerbate erosion conditions on adjacent or nearby
property and by water action produced by wakes from boats.
D. Is the subject of programs which foster erosion protection structures, either with private
or public funds, which are costly, often only partially effective over time and may even
be harmful to adjacent or nearby properties. In some sections of the Town of Southold,
major erosion protection structures of great length would be required to effectively
reduce future damages due to erosion.
§ 111-6. Defmitions.
The following terms, as used in the chapter, shall have the meanings indicated, unless the
context clearly requires otherwise:
ADMINISTRATOR — The local officials responsible for administrating and enforcing this
chapter. The Southold Town Board of Trustees is hereby designated as the "Administrator."
111:3 03-01-2013

The Administrator designates the Southold Town Police Department, the Bay Constables and
the Office of Code Enforcement as responsible for the enforcement of this chapter.
[Amended 1-29-2013 by L.L. No. 1-20131
BEACH — The zone of unconsolidated earth that extends landward from the mean
low-water line to the waterward toe of a dune or bluff,whichever is most waterward. Where
no dune or bluff exists landward of a beach, the landward limit of a beach is 100 feet
landward from the place where there is a marked change in material or physiographic form or
from the line of permanent vegetation, whichever is most waterward. Shorelands subject to
seasonal or more frequent overwash or inundation are considered to be "beaches."
BLUFF — Any bank or cliff with a precipitous or steeply sloped face adjoining a beach or a
body of water. The waterward limit of a bluff is the landward limit of its waterward natural
protective feature. Where no beach is present, the waterward limit of a bluff is mean low
water. The landward limit is 25 feet landward of the receding edge or, in those cases where
there is no discernible line of active erosion, 25 feet landward of the point of inflection on the
top of the bluff. The "point of inflection" is that point along the top of the bluff where the
trend of the land slope changes to begin its descent to the shoreline.
COASTAL EROSION HAZARD AREA MAP — The final map and any amendments
thereof issued by the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation, which delineates boundaries of' coastal erosion hazard areas subject to
regulation under this chapter.

component of which is sand.
EROSION — The loss or displacement of land along the coastline due to the action of
waves, currents, wind -driven water, waterborne ice or other impacts of storms. It also means
the loss or displacement of land due to the action of wind, runoff of surface waters or
groundwaters, or groundwater seepage.
EROSION HAZARD AREA — An area of the coastline which is a structural hazard area or
a natural protective feature area.
EROSION PROTECTION STRUCTURE — A structure specifically designed to reduce or
prevent erosion, such as a groin, jetty, revetment, breakwater or artificial beach nourishment

utility rooms, bathrooms, all closets and hallways opening directly into any rooms within the
dwelling unit. [Added 1-29-2013 by L.L. No. 1-20131
MAJOR ADDITION — An addition .to a principal building resulting in a twenty -five -percent
or greater increase in the building footprint of the principal building, other than an erosion
protection structure or a pier, dock.or wharf. The increase will be calculated as the proposed
livable floor area, including any additions to the principal building constructed as of the
enactment date of this chapter, divided by the livable floor area of the existing principal
building.' [Amended 1-29-2013 by L.L. No. 1-20131
MEAN LOW WATER The approximate average low-water level for a given body of
water at a _given location, determined by reference to hydrological information concerning
water levels or other appropriate tests.
MOVABLE STRUCTURE — A structure designed and constructed to be readily relocated
with minimum disruption of the intended use. Mobile homes and structures built on skids or
piles and which do not have a permanent foundation are examples of "movable structures."
NATURAL PROTECTIVE FEATURE — A nearshore area, beach, bluff, primary dune,
secondary dune, wetland or marsh and its vegetation. [Amended 1-29-2013 by L.L. No.
1-2013]
NATURAL PROTECTIVE FEATURE AREA — A land and/or water area containing
natural protective features the alteration of which might reduce or destroy the protection
afforded other lands against erosion or high water or lower the reserve of sand or other natural
materials available to replenish storm losses through natural processes.
NEARSHORE AREA — Those lands under water beginning at the near low-water line and
extending waterward in a direction perpendicular to the shoreline to a point where mean

111:5 03-01-2013
§ 111-6 SOUTHOLD CODE § 111-6
Occasionally one or more relatively small dune formations exist waterward of the primary
dune. These smaller formations will be considered to be part of the "primary dune" for the
purposes of this chapter. The waterward limit of a primary dune is the landward limit of its
fronting beach. The landward limit of the primary dune is 25 feet landward of its landward
toe.
PRINCIPAL BUILDING — A building in which is conducted the main or principal use of
the lot on which said building is located. [Added 1-29-2013 by L.L. No. 1-20131
RECEDING EDGE — The most landward line of active erosion or, in cases where there is
no discernible line of active erosion, the most waterward line of permanent vegetation.
RECESSION RATE — The rate, expressed in feet per year, at which an eroding shoreline
moves landward.
REGULATED ACTIVITY — The construction, modification, restoration or placement of a
structure, or major addition to a structure, or any action or use of land which materially alters
the condition of land, including grading, excavating, dumping, mining, dredging, filling or
other disturbance of soil.
RESTORATION — The reconstruction without modification of a structure, the cost of which
equals or exceeds 50% of the estimated full replacement cost of the structure at the time of
restoration. Modifications, however, may be allowed if they do not exceed preexisting size
limits and are intended to mitigate impacts to natural protective features and other natural
resources.
SECONDARY DUNE — The major dune immediately landward of the primary dune. The
waterward limit of a secondary dune is the landward limit of its fronting primary dune. The
landward limit of a "secondary dune" is 25 feet landward of its landward toe.

or wildlife populations having significant commercial or recreational value; or that would be
difficult or impossible to replace.
STRUCTURAL HAZARD AREA — Those shorelands located landward of natural
protective features and having shorelines receding at a long-term average recession rate of one
foot or more per year. The inland boundary of a "structural hazard area" is calculated by
starting at the landward limit of the fronting natural protective feature and measuring along a
line perpendicular to the shoreline a horizontal distance landward which is 40 times the
long-term average annual recession rate.
STRUCTURE Any object constructed, installed or placed in, on or under land or water,
including but not limited to a building; permanent shed; deck; in -ground and aboveground
pool; garage; mobile home; road; public service distribution, transmission or collection

include, but are not limited to, elevated walkways or stairways constructed solely for
pedestrian use and built by an individual property owner for the limited purpose of providing
noncommercial access to the beach; docks, piers, wharves or structures built on floats,
columns, open timber piles or other similar openwork supports with a top surface area of less
than 200 square feet or which are removed in the fall of each year; normal beach grooming or

ARTICLE II
Regulations
§ 111-7. Establishment.
The coastal erosion hazard area is hereby established to classify land and water areas within
the Town of Southold based upon shoreline recession rates or the location of natural
protective features. The boundaries of the area are established on the final map prepared by
the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation under § 34-0104 of the New
York State Environmental Conservation Law and entitled the "Coastal Erosion Hazard Area
Map of the Town of Southold," including all amendments made thereto by the Commissioner
of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation pursuant to § 34-0104 of
the New York State Environmental Conservation Law.
§ 111-8. Permit required for regulated activities.
No person may engage in any regulated activity in an erosion hazard area as depicted on the
Coastal Erosion Hazard Area Map of the Town of Southold, as amended, without first
obtaining a coastal erosion management permit. No coastal erosion management permit is
required for unregulated activities.
111:7 03-01-2013
§ 111-9 SOUTHOLD CODE § 111-10
§ 111-9. Issuance of permit.
A coastal erosion management permit will be issued only with a finding by the Administrator
that the proposed regulated activity:
A. Is reasonable and necessary, considering reasonable alternatives to the proposed activity
and the extent to which the proposed activity requires a shoreline location.
B. Is not likely to cause a measurable increase in erosion at the proposed site and at other
locations.
C. Prevents, if possible, or minimizes adverse effects on natural protective features and their
functions and protective values, existing erosion protection structures and natural
resources.
§ 111-10. Structural hazard area.
The following restrictions apply to regulated activities within structural hazard areas:
A. A coastal erosion management permit is required for the installation of public service
distribution, transmission or collection systems for gas, electricity, water or wastewater,
and cable service. Systems installed along the shoreline must be located landward of the
shoreline structures. [Amended 1-29-2013 by L.L. No. 1-20131
B. The construction of nonmovable structures or placement of major nonmovable additions
to an existing structure is prohibited.
C. Permanent foundations may not be attached to movable structures, and any temporary
foundations are to be removed at the time the structure is moved. Below -grade footings
will be allowed if satisfactory provisions are made for their removal. ,
D. No movable structure may be located closer to the landward limit of a bluff than 25 feet.
E. No movable structure may be placed or constructed such that according to accepted
engineering practice, its weight places excessive groundloading on a bluff.
F. Plans for landward relocation of movable structures must be included with each
application for a permit. Movable structures which have been located within a structural
hazard area pursuant to a coastal erosion management permit must be removed before
any part of the structure is within 10 feet of the receding edge. The last owner of record,
as shown on the latest assessment roll, is responsible for removing that structure and its
foundation, unless a removal agreement was attached to the original coastal erosion
management permit. With the attachment of a removal agreement to the coastal erosion
management permit, the landowner or the signatory is responsible for the landward
relocation of movable structures. Removal agreements may be made when the last owner
of record and the owner of the structure are different, with the approval of the Town at
the time the permit is issued.
G. Debris from the structural damage which may occur as a result of sudden unanticipated
bluff edge failure, dune migration or wave or ice action must be removed within 60 days
of the damaging event.
111:8 03-01-2013
§ 111-10 COASTAL EROSION HAZARD AREAS § 111-12
H. Any grading, excavation or other soil disturbance conducted within a structural hazard
area must not direct surface water runoff over a bluff face.
§ 111-11. Nearshore area.
Nearshore areas dissipate a substantial amount of wave energy before it is expended on
beaches, bluffs or dunes by causing waves to collapse or break. Nearshore areas also function
as reservoirs of sand, gravel and other unconsolidated material for beaches. Sandbars, which
are located in nearshore areas, control the orientation of incoming waves and promote the
development of ice cap formations which help protect shorelines during winter storms. The
roots of aquatic vegetation in nearshore areas bind fine grained silts, clays and organic matter
to form a fairly cohesive bottom that resists erosion. The following restrictions apply to
regulated activities in nearshore areas:
A. Excavating, grading, mining or dredging . which diminishes the erosion protection
afforded by nearshore areas is prohibited, except construction or maintenance of
navigation channels, bypassing sand around natural and man-made obstructions and
artificial beach nourishment, all of which require a coastal erosion management permit.
B. Clean sand or gravel of an equivalent or slightly larger grain size is the only material
which may be deposited within nearshore areas and requires a coastal erosion
management permit. [Amended 1-29-2013 by L.L. No. 1-20131
C. All development is prohibited in nearshore areas unless specifically provided for by this
chapter.
§ 111-12. Beach area.
Beaches buffer shorelands from erosion by absorbing wave energy that otherwise would be
expended on the toes of bluffs or dunes. Beaches that are high and wide protect shorelands
from erosion more effectively than beaches that are low or narrow. Beaches also act as
reservoirs of sand or other unconsolidated material for longshore littoral transport and offshore
sandbar and shoal formation. The following restrictions apply to regulated activities in beach
areas:
A. Excavating, grading or mining which diminishes the erosion protection afforded by
beaches is prohibited.
B. Clean sand or gravel of an equivalent or slightly larger grain size is the only material
which may be deposited within beach areas. Any deposition will require a coastal erosion
management permit, which may be issued only for expansion or stabilization of beaches.
C. Active bird nesting and breeding areas must not be disturbed unless such disturbance is
pursuant to a specific wildlife management activity approved, in writing, by the New
York State Department of Environmental Conservation. [Amended 1-29-2013 by L.L.
No. 1-20131
D. All development is prohibited on beaches unless specifically provided for by this chapter.
111:9 03-01-2013
§ 111-13 SOUTHOLD CODE § 111-13
§ 111-13. Dune area.
Dunes prevent overtopping and store sand for coastal processes. High, vegetated dunes
provide a greater degree of protection than low, unvegetated ones. Dunes are of the greatest
protective value during conditions of storm -induced high water. Because dunes often protect
some of the most biologically productive areas as well as developed coastal areas, their
protective value is especially great. The key to maintaining a stable dune system is the
establishment and maintenance of beachgrass or other vegetation on the dunes and assurance
of a supply of nourishment sand to the dunes. The following restrictions apply to regulated
activities in dune areas:
A. In primary dune areas:
(1) Excavating, grading or mining of primary dunes is prohibited.
(2) Clean sand of a compatible type and size is the only material which may be
deposited. Any deposition requires a coastal erosion management permit.
(3) All depositions must be vegetatively stabilized using species tolerant of the
conditions at the site and must be placed so as to increase the size of, or restore,` a
dune or dune area.
(4) Active bird nesting and breeding areas must not be disturbed, unless such
disturbance is pursuant to a specific wildlife management activity approved, in
writing, by the Department.
(5) Nonmajor additions to existing structures are allowed on primary dunes pursuant to
a coastal erosion management permit and subject to permit conditions concerning
the location, design and potential impacts of the structure on the primary dune.
(6) Stone revetments or other erosion protection structures compatible with primary
dunes will only be allowed at the waterward toe of primary dunes and must not
interfere with the exchange of sand between primary dunes and their fronting
beaches.
B. In secondary dune areas:
(1) All depositions must be of clean sand of a compatible type and size, and all
grading must be performed so as to increase the size of, or restore, a dune or
former dune area.
(2) Excavating, grading or mining must not diminish the erosion protection afforded
by them.
(3) Nonmajor additions to existing structures are allowed on secondary dunes pursuant
to a coastal erosion management permit.
(4) Permitted construction, reconstruction, restoration or modifications must be built
on adequately anchored pilings such that at least three feet of open space exists
between the floor joists and the surface of the secondary dune; and the permitted
activity must leave the space below the lowest horizontal structural members free
of obstructions.
111:10 03-01-2013
§ 111-13 COASTAL EROSION HAZARD AREAS § 111-14
C. All other activities and developments in dune areas are prohibited unless specifically
provided for by this chapter.
D. The restrictions of § 111-16, Traffic control, apply to dune areas.
§ 111-14. Bluff area.
Bluffs protect shorelands and coastal development by absorbing the often destructive energy
of open water. Bluffs are a source of depositional material for beaches and other
unconsolidated natural protective features.
A. The following activities are prohibited on bluffs:
(1) Excavating or mining, except when in conjunction with conditions stated in a
coastal erosion management permit issued for minor alterations in construction of
an erosion protection structure or for provision of shoreline access.
(2) The restrictions of § 111-16, Traffic control, apply to bluffs.
(3) All development unless specifically allowed by § 111-14B of this chapter.
(4) Disturbance of active bird nesting and breeding areas, unless such disturbance is
pursuant to a specific wildlife management activity approved, in writing, by the
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. [Amended
1-29-2013 by L.L. No. 1-20131
111:10.1 03-01-2013
§ 111-19 COASTAL EROSION HAZARD AREAS § 111-23
A. Removal of any structure that was constructed or placed without a coastal erosion
management permit; and
B. The return to former conditions of any natural protective feature that was excavated,
mined or otherwise disturbed without a coastal erosion management permit.
ARTICLE IV
Variances and Appeals
§ 111-20. Variances from standards and restrictions.
Strict application of the standards and restrictions of this chapter may cause practical
difficulty or unnecessary hardship. When this can be shown, such standards and restrictions
may be varied or modified, provided that the following criteria are met:
A. No reasonable, prudent, alternative site is available.
B. All responsible means and measures to mitigate adverse impacts on natural systems and
their functions and values have been incorporated into the activity's design at the
property owner's expense.
C. The development will be reasonably safe from flood and erosion damage.

WETLAND BOUNDARY OR BOUNDARIES OF WETLAND — Wetland ecosystems
generally possess three essential characteristics: (1) hydrophytic vegetation, (2) hydric
soils, and wetland hydrology. The wetland indicator status of all plants can be found in
the National List of Plants that Occur in Wetlands (USFWS). The wetland boundary is
most easily determined by defining the outer limit of the vegetation specified in the
definition of "freshwater, brackish or tidal wetlands." The wetland boundary is to be
defined and flagged at the point where existing wetland indicator species no longer have
a competitive advantage over upland species. Wetland and upland plants will mix
together at this transition zone. For freshwater wetlands that frequently lack standing
water (shrub swamps, deciduous swamps, coniferous swamps and wet meadows),
vegetation alone may not be adequately diagnostic for identification of a wetland
boundary. In these wetland types, field verification of wetland hydrology and/or hydric
soils might be required to define the boundary. The methodology used to determine this
boundary shall be the same methodology utilized in the New York State Department of
Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) Technical Methods Statement relating to the
Freshwater Wetlands Act.

§ 275-3. Findings; purpose; jurisdiction; setbacks.
A. Findings: The Town Board of the Town of Southold finds that rapid growth, the spread
of development and increasing demands upon natural resources are encroaching upon or
eliminating many of its wetlands and patent lands, which, if preserved and maintained in
an undisturbed and natural condition, constitute important physical, social, aesthetic,
_recreational and economic assets to existing and future residents of the Town of
Southold. In addition, there has been a significant increase in the applications for and the
numbers of fixed, and floating piers and docks accessory to upland residential and other
uses. Most of these structures and the uses they support are on and in publicly owned
land .and waters and always have some effect on physical, biological, ecosystem
functions and values, development patterns and the aesthetic character of the area.
Therefore it is essential to regulate the type and placement of such structures.
B. Purpose. It is the intention of this chapter to ensure for the citizens of the Town of
Southold the protection, preservation, proper maintenance and use of its wetlands, giving
due consideration to the reasonable economic and social development of the Town. In
addition, the Town Board declares that it is the intention of this chapter to regulate the
type and placement of fixed and floating piers and docks for the protection, preservation,
proper maintenance and use of its waters and wetlands. Therefore, the Town Board
declares that the regulation of the wetlands of the Town of Southold is essential to the
275:12 1 03 -01-2013
§ 275-3 WETLANDS AND SHORELINE § 275-3
r" health, safety and welfare of the people of the Town of Southold. The wetlands shall be
regulated in order to maintain and contribute to the following resource area values and
the attributes and functions they possess: protection of public and private water supply;
groundwater; flood control; erosion and sedimentation control; storm damage prevention;
water pollution control; fisheries; shellfish, including spawner sanctuaries; wildlife
habitat; agriculture; aquaculture; aesthetics; public access; and recreation. In addition, the
following resource area values shall be maintained and protected: prevention of flood
damage by limiting development in flood hazard areas; prevention of damage to
structures and natural resources as a result of erosion; improvement of water quality;
protection and enhancement of existing vegetation cover in order to maintain water
quality and wildlife habitat: protection of wildlife, waterfowl, and plant habitat and the
maintenance of existing populations and species diversity; prevention of -loss or
degradation of critical wildlife and plant habitat; prevention of new stormwater runoff
discharge and the improvement of existing stormwater runoff discharges; protection of
coastal ecosystems which support the continued viability of harvestable shellfish and
finfish habitat; public access to water and land; improvement of groundwater recharge;
and the minimization of the impact of new development, restoration and/or expansion on
the resource area values listed, above. The provisions of this chapter are not intended to
supersede the requirements of Chapter 236 of the Town Code. [Amended 10-9-2012 by
