John Brewster-McCall: Hello, my name is John Brewster-McCall, I am one of the
owners of the property. I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself, and
introduce the property and if you have any questions that you may have. As you all
may have known, my father since the mid 90's has bought 4 different small farms in the
area, with the intent of preserving all of them. We've never put a building up on these
farms and we're just starting to get to the point where our production is growing and we
need to think for the future and that is what this project is intended to do. We've taken
every opportunity to work with the Planning Board in meetings before we even
submitted to make sure that this is not only a sustainable building but one that is friendly
to the entire community. So, I wanted to introduce myself for you all. Thank you.
Chairman-Wilcenski: Great, thank you very much. Anybody else? Yes.
Julie Amper: My name is Julie Amper, I live in Mattituck and I just wanted to say that
every morning as I walk my dog along New Suffolk Avenue past acres and acres of
preserved land I thank God for the McCall's. When I heard about this project I thought
Southold Town Planning Board Page 121 December 7, 2015
their vision is continuing and I must thank them again for their generosity and their
vision that allows them to grow an Ag business without adding a blight to our landscape.

address the Board?

to submit for the record, and that's all I am going to say unless there are questions.
