DEPARTMENT: Town Attorney
Ph 10/23
WHEREAS, there has been presented to the Town Board of the Town of Southold, Suffolk
th
County, New York, on the 25 day of September, 2018, a Local Law entitled “A Local Law in
relation to Rental Permits” now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Southold will hold a public hearing on the
aforesaid Local Law at the Southold Town Hall, 53095 Main Road, Southold, New York, on the
rd
23 day of October at 7:31 p.m. at which time all interested persons will be given an opportunity
to be heard.
The proposed Local Law entitled, “A Local Law in relation to Rental Permits” reads as follows:
LOCAL LAW NO. 2018
BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Southold as follows:
I. A new Chapter 207 of the Code of the Town of Southold, A Local Law entitled, “A
Local Law in relation to Rental Permits”
§ 207-1 Legislative intent.
A. The Town Board of the Town of Southold has determined that there exists in the

dwelling units in one, two and three family and multiple dwellings that are
substandard or in violation of the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and
Building Code, Building Rehabilitation Code, Electrical Code, Fire Prevention Code,
Plumbing Code, and other codes and ordinances of the Town. Many of these dwellings
are inadequate in size, overcrowded and dangerous, and such dwelling units pose
hazards to life, limb and property of residents of the Town and others, tend to
promote and encourage deterioration of the housing stock of the Town, create blight
and excessive vehicle traffic and parking problems and to overburden municipal
services. The Board finds that current Code provisions are inadequate to halt the
proliferation of such conditions and that the public health, safety, welfare and good
order and governance of the Town will be enhanced by enactment of the regulations
set forth in this chapter.
B. Nothing herein shall be interpreted to supersede any requirements contained in
Chapter 280, Chapter 100 or any other chapter of the Town Code of the Town of

EPA Offshore Drilling
Southold Town Meeting Agenda - September 25, 2018
Page 41
WHEREAS, New York is currently the third-largest ocean economy in the nation with almost
320,000 jobs and billions of dollars of the state's gross domestic product that depend on clean,
oil-free water and beaches, and abundant fish and wildlife; and
WHEREAS, a booming Long Island tourism economy alone provides $5.6 billion into New
York's ocean wealth and Long Island is the heart of the $180 million New York annual fishing
industry, all of which benefit from a healthy ocean and coast; and
WHEREAS, offshore oil and gas drilling and exploration places coastal communities at
economic and ecological risk from oil spills and the pollution brought by routine drilling
operations and onshore industrialization, threatening the livelihoods of commercial and
recreational fisherman and small businesses that rely on a clean and healthy ocean and beaches;
and
WHEREAS, offshore drilling may require significant onshore infrastructure, such as pipelines or
refineries, which would harm the character of New York's coastline and could exacerbate
wetlands loss, storm surge, and sea level rise impacts; and
WHEREAS, the harmful impacts from offshore oil and gas drilling and exploration anywhere
along the Atlantic coastline could extend far beyond immediately surrounding areas and severely
impact communities that rely on the robust economy of the marine industry; and
WHEREAS, offshore drilling and exploration perpetuates our ties to dirty carbon pollution and
contributes to climate change and the resulting sea level rise and extreme weather; and
WHEREAS, the current Administration has expressed interest in opening the Atlantic Ocean to
offshore oil and gas drilling and exploration, which includes the use of seismic airguns which
fire intense blasts of compressed air that rank just behind military explosives as the loudest
source of noise in the ocean, every 10-12 seconds, 24 hours a day, for months on end; and
WHEREAS, the magnitude of the seismic survey activity used to explore for oil and gas deposits
and the relatively flat sandy bottom of the North Atlantic seafloor are very likely to disrupt and
displace marine life, such as whales which rely on sound to find food and mate, and can impair
the health of many fish and shellfish species, including those of commercial importance like
squid, lobster, and scallops; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Southold recognizes that our communities, businesses, and industries
depend on a healthy coastal environment for the benefit of current and future residents, property
owners, and visitors alike.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby
finds that offshore oil and gas drilling and exploration unnecessarily risks our economic and
ecological health and thus, the Town Board sets forth its opposition to any plan or legislation
which encourages oil and gas development and exploration offshore that would impact the
citizens of New York State; and be it further
