SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Welcome to the regularly scheduled Southold Town Board
meeting of January 21, 1992. I'd like to remind the Town Board, and the audience,
that immediately following this meeting, we have a lottery, which we're going
to be enacting for Southold Villas affordable housing subdivision, and that
affordable housing lottery the first 17 names drawn will be those who have been
choosen to receive a home if they then proceed after that with qualifications
for mortgages, and so on. We will at the same time draw all 51 names,
because there are 51 applicants for 17 homes. All 51 will be drawn, and their
names will be recorded, and if for one reason or another, an individual who
was one of the first 17 fails to qualify, then another person will move into his
position in accordance to the way the number-s come out after that. So, the
first 51 names will be drawn, but 17 will be awarded homes, and on a first come
first serve basis. Obviously that's why it's being done by a lottery. At that
time Jim McMahon, our Community Development Director will be here to help
continue with those ceremonies. I need a motion to approve the audit of the
bills of ~anuary 21, 1992.

the recommendations of that report. It was a very, I thought, positive and
forthright meeting with a lot of usefu' views, that came out. This morning durin9
the Work Session of the Board we discussed it further. After considerable dis-
cussion the decision of the Board was to move ahead with a further information
program within the Town of Southold, and to try to assess better how the people
of the town want to see the town move in this area. What are the critical parts
of that UK/US Report, that we should move first on? What are the priorities?
We feel we need to 90 out and 9et a better sense of how the people regard the
important areas of movement here. The Plannin9 and Zonin9 Committee has
been asked to coodinate the process, and to help draft, or prepare a structured
questionaire,, or information form by which the Town Board can address this
question more clearly. So this will be, in effect, the first step to addressing
the recommendations that came out in that UK/US Report. For that purpose
the Planning and Zoning Committee will meet at 7:30 P.M. one week from tonight.
That's Tuesday night, and I look forward to..the Board looks forward to anyone
who would like to come to that meeting. Thank you, Scott.
