map of Hanoch and Watts (filed map number 9059, February 1, 1991) from 100' to 140'
from the s/e property line. SCTM#1000-101-1-14.4 & 14.6
Pierce Rafferty:
WHEREAS, this proposal is to relocate the building envelope on Lot 3 of the Approved
Subdivision Map of Hanoch and Watts (filed map number 9059, February 1, 1991) from
100' to 140' from the s/e property line for the Sannino Winery; and
WHEREAS, on August 25, 2015, Anthony Sannino, owner, submitted a Site Plan
application to the Planning Board for review; and
WHEREAS, this Site Plan is for the proposed construction of a 2-story building with a
2,852 sq. ft. first floor for wine production, wine retail area, and a wine education room,
a 438 sq. ft. second floor for an office, and a 3,600 sq. ft. basement with thirty nine (39)
parking stalls on two adjacent parcels (to be merged pursuant to ZBA File 6882) totaling
8.94 acres in the A-C Zoning District, Cutchogue; and
WHEREAS, the two subject lots were created by the Planning Board in the 3-lot
subdivision map of Giora Hanoch and Harold Watts, filed map number 9059,, February
1, 1991. The subdivision created a 110' x 110' building envelope for Lot 14.6 (aka Lot
#3) setback 100' feet from County Route 48 and a common driveway with the adjacent
lot to the west (aka Lot#2). The building envelopes and common driveway were created
for a presumed future residential use, however the uses for the two lots are now a
church and this proposed winery Site Plan. Neither the building envelopes nor the
common driveway are practical for the proposed winery and existing church; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Board has considered the original purpose of the common
driveway and the building envelopes, as well as the new locations of the existing and
proposed structures and found that any impacts are being addressed in this site plan
process. The proposed winery building is located further back for the benefit of scenic
quality, to provide a greater setback from County Route 48, a greater setback from
existing homes on County Route 48 and adjacent residential parcels; and
WHEREAS, the Southold Town Planning Board considered the relocation of the
building envelope and the removal of the requirement for a common driveway and
determined that no impacts to the site or the surrounding properties will result; be it
therefore
RESOLVED, that the Southold Town Planning Board hereby approves the new location
of the building envelope on SCTM#1000-101-1-14.4 (Lot 3 of the approved Subdivision
Map of Hanoch and Watts), as well as the requirement for a common driveway as
described above.

21 My name is Marian Gamble and I live
22 on Bray Avenue. And I am the first
23 house on the east side of Bray
24 Avenue, going down. And where we
25 live, we have a stop sign, I think --
November 6, 2017 4
1 I don't know how many feet. I am not
2 smart in that direction, but there is
3 a stop sign. And then there is an
4 area, Old Main Road and there is the
5 gas station there. And it's really
6 such a hazard. It's really a death
7 trap there. And when we heard about
8 the beverage place going to be there,
9 it's kind of scary. Then you're
10 going to have big trucks bringing in
11 product to be sold and all. And
12 right now, people don't pay
13 attention. They come off Route 25
14 and they just zoom down Old Main
15 Road. And when you're coming down
16 Bray Avenue, you don't have a chance.
17 I mean, I have seen and heard many,
18 many collisions up there. Some of
19 them were small, but they're banging
20 away up there. And it shakes my
21 house down. I said one of these days
22 there is going to be a very terrible
23 accident there. Then you have the
24 gas station there. We either have to
25 have a traffic light or something if
November 6, 2017 5
1 you're going to allow large trucks to
2 go down Old Main Road to this place
3 of business. I feel bad because
4 everyone should have a business. And
5 it's just in a bad place with that
6 gas station there. And the stop
7 signs stand back so far from the main
8 road where Old Main Road cuts right
9 in the middle of it. And I think you
10 are familiar with the way that goes.
11 It's on a triangle-like. And they go
12 so fast. I really like to just say
13 that for the Town to look into a safe
14 way to do it, if you feel that it
15 must be done. And look into maybe a
16 traffic light. I don't even go out
17 that way to go to the west side or
18 the east side. I go to a road that
19 has a light because it is just too
20 horrible. Thank you.
21 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Thank you.
22 Could you please write your name for
23 the record?
24 MS. GAMBLE: Sure.
25 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Would anyone
November 6, 2017 6
1 else like to address the Board on
2 Northside Beverage? You can step to
3 either podium. There is one of
4 either side of the room.
5 MS. SMITH: Hi. Barbara Smith. I
6 also live on Bray Avenue. I just
7 also want to state how dangerous that
8 intersection is. There is also a
9 sign right there, about 100 feet from
10 that stop sign that says dangerous
11 intersection already. We on Bray
12 Avenue already know that. It's a 30
13 mile an hour zone and you can't get
14 anybody to go 30 miles an hour. And
15 the people zooming off to go already
16 to the gas station to go get their
17 cigarettes, their beer or whatever,
18 lottery tickets, it's going to be a
19 pure death trap with them zooming off
20 and try and get to the beverage
21 center at the same time. We need to
22 get that mitigated or some how one
23 way stop light or something. It's
24 really scary. To have somebody, my
25 neighbor's have to go a mile or two
November 6, 2017 7
1 miles out of their way to go down
2 Peconic Bay Boulevard up to Sigsby
3 Road or down Peconic Bay Boulevard to
4 make it down to the gas station in
5 South Jamesport. That is just --
6 they pay their taxes too and it's
7 just unrealistic. That's all. Thank
8 you.
9 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Thank you.
10 Just as a note to everyone.
11 Everybody's comments will be
12 addressed in this review.
13 Anybody else would like to address
14 the Board, Northside Beverage in
15 Laurel?
16 Yes, sir.
17 MR. SEARLES: I am Richard
18 Searles. I am the architect for the
19 applicant. I prepared the Site Plan.
20 And I just wanted to state that the
21 intersection that they do talk about
22 is difficult intersection. And I
23 don't believe that the amount of
24 commercial or large truck traffic
25 that will come to and from this
November 6, 2017 8
1 beverage center will be overwhelming.
2 It is something that from a
3 standpoint of the Town, could be
4 looked at. It's a very difficult
5 intersection but I don't think we are
6 will create an overbearing problem as
7 far as traffic is concerned. Again,
8 through the Site Plan process, we
9 will be more than happy to work with
10 the Planning Department to see if we
11 can come up with some resolution.
12 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Thank you.
13 MR. SEARLES: Thank you.
14 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Please write
15 your name for the record. Would
16 anybody else like to address the
17 Board on the Northside Beverage
18 application? Anyone?
19 (No Response. )
20 MEMBER RICH: Make a motion to
21 close the hearing.
22 MEMBER SIDOR: Second.
23 MEMBER RICH: Motion by made by
24 Jim and seconded by Martin to close
25 the hearing.
November 6, 2017 9

2 (No Response.)
3 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: All in favor?
4 MEMBER RICH: Aye.
5 MEMBER SIDOR: Aye.

10 ********** r******************************
11 ALEXANDER & TRACY SUTTON
12 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Our second
13 public hearing is for Alexander and
14 Tracy Sutton. This proposal is for a
15 Standard Subdivision where two
16 parcels, SCTM#1000-78-9-54 (1.82
17 acres) and SCTM#1000-78-09-78 (0. 624
18 acres) will be re-subdivided into two
19 new parcels. Proposed Lot 1 will be
20 49,291 square feet. And proposed Lot
21 2 will be 30, 000 square feet. In the
22 R-40 Zoning District. The property
23 is located at 1160 North Bayview
24 Road, 111.56 feet northeast of
25 Liberty Lane and Victoria Drive,
November 6, 2017 10
1 Southold. SCTM#1000-78-9-54 .
2 At this point, if anyone would
3 like to address the Board, please
4 step to one of the podiums. State
5 your name and write your name for the
6 record and please address your
7 comments to the board.
8 MS. MOORE: Good evening.
9 Patricia Moore on behalf of the
10 Sutton's. I just want to put on the
11 record because I do see a couple of
12 neighbors that were interested from
13 previously, assurances that
14 everything that had been agreed to
15 previously has been documented and
16 incorporated into covenants and
17 restrictions, on the property. To go
18 back, this got a variance from the
19 Zoning Board of Appeal's with certain
20 conditions. Those conditions were
21 further reviewed by the Planning
22 Board. The Planning Board in the
23 covenants that run with the land,
24 with respect to the easement, have
25 specific language regarding
November 6, 2017 11
1 maintaining this as an emergency
2 access, limited use obviously, with
3 clearing 15 wide by 15 high. That
4 was something that the neighbors had
5 requested and it was incorporated and
6 put into the covenants through the
7 Planning Board process. So we have
8 done everything that has always been
9 asked of my client and now it's just
10 a question of completing the question
11 of the subdivision of one lot from
12 this property that the one lot has a
13 house on it. It's the family home.
14 And then the 30, 000 square foot lot
15 is the only new lot that is being
16 created. If there is any
17 questions, we can address them.
18 Thank you.
19 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Okay. Thank
20 you.
21 Ms. Moore is correct, in that,
22 this has been around for a long time.
23 And during that process, there was
24 many updates made to the covenants to
25 include the concerns of the
November 6, 2017 12
1 neighbors. And just as the Sutton's
2 came for a final approval, this Board
3 determined that we should have
4 another public hearing just to see if
5 there were any more concerns to be
6 heard. So at this point, if there is
7 anyone who would like to address the
8 Board for Alexander and Tracy Sutton,
9 please step to one of the microphones
10 and state your name?
11 Anyone?
12 (No Response. )
13 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Everybody is
14 happy?
15 Would anybody like to speak in regards
16 to Alexander and Tracy Sutton?
17 (No Response. )
18 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Seeing none.
19 MEMBER RICH: I make a motion to
20 close the hearing.
21 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Motion made
22 by Jim.
23 MEMBER SIDOR: Second.
24 CHAIRMAN WILCENSKI: Seconded by
25 Martin.
November 6, 2017 13

5 MEMBER SIDOR: Aye.
