27.-Moved by Supervisor Harris, seconded by Councilwoman Hussie, it was
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby authorizes and
directs Supervisor Scott L. Harris to execute an acjreement between Walter A.
McDermott, a telephone auditing service, and the Town of Southold, whereby
McDermott will audit the monthly service and equipment portion of the Town's
telephone bills to obtain credits or refunds for overcharges; fee for said service
is fifty percent of the credit or refund, and is payable only when the Town
receives said credit or refund; if McDermott is not successful in obtaining a
credit or refund, then McDermott will not earn a fee, nor is McDermott entitled
to a fee for any prospective savings that may result from the audit.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Mr. McDermott has been doing t,his for about thirty years,
and his policy is one, that is if he's not successful in obtaining a credit or refund,
Mr. McDermott will earn no money, and Mr. McDermott is entitled to a fee for
any savings that may result from this audit. This was picked up from the New
York State Association of Towns seminar we went to about a week and a half,
or two weeks ago, and this individual is probably the first one ever doing audits
for municipalities for telephone bills. He can go back some nine years, and look
at telephone charges, and hopefully, he will continue in the mode, that was done
some years ago, when the Town did an audit for cost savings for the taxpayers
of this town. We hope that Mr. McDermott is successful, and look forward to
seeing, again, a savings with his productive staff, as has been done in the past
for this town, when an audit was done some two, or three years ago. With that,
I make that motion.

Town Attorney.
39.-Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilwoman Hussie, Councilman Lizewski,
Councilman Penny, Supervisor Harris. No: Councilman Wickham.
This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED.
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I would just like to comment briefly, Scott. I am
uncomfortable with the idea of introducing a lot more fire power in the Town.
Although I think that the grant is quite generous in how it's contructed, I
suspect that in a long term it will wind up costing the Town additional money.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: I think that the second resolution, that we're going to
read now, should offset some of the concerns, that Councilman Wickham has in
reference to this.
40.-Moved by Supervisor Harris, seconded by Councilman Penny, it was

relate to certain scheduled days off and the compensation for travel time to and
from the place designated for firearms training solely for the purpose of enabling
the Town to provide the initial training for new 9mm semi-automatic weapons.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: In effect, what this has done s negate any additional
training days, that the Town would incur by the purchase of these weapons in
protection of our citizens, in giving our Polcie Officers additional protection them-
selves in these times, considering what is transpiring to the west of us, considering
what could happen on the East End. We are immune to none at this point of
drugs, and the like, that have infiltrating this town. This, I feel, is very
important for the safety of the citizens of this town, not to mention the safety
and welfare of the officers. Without this training, and without the PBA, and
the Town agreeing, that there would be no additional cost for additional training
days, which is required with these new weapons, there probably wouldn't have
been an agreement. But in this case, both sides have agreed to the mutual concerns
of our community, and such have agreed by this memorandum.
40.-Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilwoman Hussie, Councilman Lizewski,
Councilman Penny, Supervisor Harris. Abstain: Councilman.Wickham.
This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED.
COUNCILMAN PENNY: I'd like to add at this time, that I was originally against
some of the hidden costs, that were..I felt was not fully presented to us when
we were receiving this grant from the State. That although we were receiving,
I believe it's $8,500.00 in funds, there were hidden costs of between $20,000.00,
and $30,000.00 worth of overtime. When we brought this to the attention of the
Police Committee, the Police Committee was able to negotiate with the PBA, and
work out the agreement that we're dealing with right now, so that there are no
hidden costs to the taxpayers of the Town of Southold. We wind up with a
Police Force, that is better armed, and we all hope that they never need to use
these weapons.
41 .-Moved by Councilman Wickham, seconded by Supervisor Harris, it was
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby adopts the

SUPERVISOR HARRIS: l'd like to take a minute to explain to you. The Southold
Town Police Department enacted this policy, because some time ago, unbeknown
to the Town of Southold, us as elected officials, and not to mention those who
have prepared a budget, the State mandated that alt first time responders, being
those who are involved either in Fire Departments, or those involved in the Police
Departments, have to have a shot, which is for Hepatitis 13. Those shots amount
to over $5,000.00, which this town had not budgeted, however due to the safety
and welfare of our employees, being that of our Police Officers, this had to be
enacted very quickly. The shots have been given to the best of my knowledge
at this time, and hopefully our officers are now better protected against exactly
what this'l~olic¥ has stated, and that is communicable diseases.

SUPERVISOR HARRIS: I failed to recognize, that in the last resolution, in
reference to the muncipal cooperation and agreement, that this is called a MBIA,
Municpal Cooperation Agreement. This is a cooperative of liquid assets, and
security system. It called Class, and as I've said before, that this is very
important to the investments of the Town in returns for the taxpayers. At this
time, would the Board like to move on the three public hearings, that we've just
had? Would you like to move on the first public hearing of the evening?

SUPERVISOR HARRIS: That ends our resolution portion of our Town Board
meeting. At this time, are there any members of the audience, that would like
to address this Board on any matter, which you may feel be of importance to
this body? Yes, sir? Come up, and state your name, please.
PHILIP VANBOURGONDIEN: I'd just like clarification. My name is Philip
VanBourcjondien. Clarification on why is it necessary to have two separate sets
of electrical inspectors for the Town?
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Some time ago, it was brought to our attention, and I
don't know if you were at one of our meetings, when this was discussed. Our
Code basically had a monopoly, right now, for one organization called the New
York Board of Underwriters. They are a private organization. They have
nothing to do with the New York State government. It was brought to our
attention, that there are other bodies, other organizations out there, who have
been certified by the State of New York, that would like to do business 'n the
Town of Southold. Our Code prohibited any other private company from doing
business with electrical inspections in reference to Building Department, and
inspections with the New York State _guilding Codes. Because this was brought
to our attention, we had to change the Code, and open it up to whoever was
now certified by the State of New York. Since that time, we made that modifica-
tion to the Code, a second company has come along, and that's what we acted
upon tonight, to authorize them to do business in the Town of Southold. There
may be more in the future. There"s no cost to the Town. We don't pay them.
It's strictly us authorizing them what with the certifications, insurance, that
they have, that they're authorized to do business in the town.

PHILIP VANBOURGONDIEN: The thought occurred to me in looking at Resolution
36, 37, and possibly some of the other through there, these young men here,
}~ou Llse capital letters for man'./ programs, like CSEA, and SNAP, that doesn't
mean anything to them. It doesn't mean anything to me. I don't understand.
what these are for.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: SNAP is Supplemental Nutrition Asssistance Program,
which is, we use that rather than go through that SNAP is a short term for that.
PHILIP VANBOURGONDIE['~: I realize why it's done, but I just thought people,
these young men might say, what the beck is all these initials, what is all this
mean?
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Absolutely.
PBA is Police Igenevolent Association.
tions.
CSEA is Civil Service Employees Association.
We do use a lot of short cuts, and abrevia-
PHILIP VANI3OURGONDIEN: I have one further question. The Town Board has
one full-time Attorney, Mr, Arnoff?
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Mr. Arnoff is part-time.
PHILIP VANBOURGONDIEN: He's part-time? Then we have a part-time..?
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: We have a full-time Assistant Town Attorney.
PHILIP VANBOURGONDIEN: Okay. So, I never see the full-time Town Attorney
here. I only see the part-time Town Attorney.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Let me clarify that. Mr. Arnoff is the Town Attorney,
but he's a part-time employee. The-Assistant Town Attorney, his name is
Matthew Kierr~an, who is a full-time employee, does not come to the night meetings,
because his hours are basically eight to four, or whenever the Town needs him,
and the Town Attorney's hours are also flexible. He's here all during the day,
many days late in the afternoon, or ver~,, earl'./ in the morning, because he does
have another place of work besides in the Town of Southold, and Mr. Kiernan,
who is the Assistant Town Attorney is full-time, and is in the office on a full-time
basis.
TOWN CLERK TERRY: He was at the Work Session all day.
PHILIP VANBOURGONDIEN: As a part-time attorney, and not on the Town payroll,
is Mr. Arnoff paid by the hour?
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: He is on the Town payroll. He is paid $30,000.00 a year.
PHILIP VANBOURGONDIEN: And what does the full-time attorney receive?
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: $40,000.00.
PHILI'P VANBOURGONDIEN: ,The reason t ask that I seriously question the
necessity for two attorneys on a town of this size. It isn't fair to make
comparisons in many cases, but I happen know the Town Attorney for the Village
of Babylon, it's not the Town of Babylon, it's the Village of Babylon, that has
about the same amount of people as our town, about 30,000 in the village. They
have one attorney part-time, so I find that this is pretty steep. The time when
we're in recession, why we should spend over $70,000 on attorneys.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Mr. VanBourgondien, I thing that's easily explainable.
If you look at other townships, which have far more attorneys, such as Southampton,
has far more attorneys than we have, in order to not supplement outside firms,
of which you have to do. For instance, we could probably spend $200,000.00
a year easily in outside litigation, on hiring firms to represent us in all the law-
suits. As you know, this town has many, many lawsuits. Probably on a monthly
basis, there is at least one or two suits, that have been enacted. This town's
thinking years ago was that by having two employees, one part-time, one full-
time, they would offset those tremendous cost, that outside legal counsel was
costing this town at that time, not to mention other towns around us. It has
been a tremendous cost savings to this town not to engage outside counsel,
except and where necessary. Only in special cases, do we engage outside counsel.
Otherwise most of it is all handled in house. To give you an example, in the
Town of Easthampton, Tony Bullock, the Supervisor, has one case over there,
which has been committed to an outside firm, which has cost them to date over
$700,000.00. One firm for one case, and it was a civil rights case similar to what
this town has in front of it right now. We do have an outside counsel representing
us, because of the time frames involved, and don't need to mention the name,
because...
PHILIP VANBOURGONDIEN: I know who you're talking about. I know himvery
well.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Is there any other members of the audience, that would
like to address this Board? Harvey, would you like to make some comment?
TOWN ATTORNEY ARNOFF: Mr. VanBourgondien, we have handled 1983 actions
in-house, so depending on the nature of the action, many times we have handled
them in-house, and we're going to save the municipality money, and done so
successfully, so that those are dramatic savings to the town.
SUPERIVSOR HARRIS: Is there anyone else in the audience?
GREG SULLIVAN: My name is Greg Sullivan. I'm with George's East End
Recycling. I'm not 100% sure irm .inorder with the pr~ogram. I just wanted to
mention, we had placed a bid in reference to landfill cover. We placed an
alternate bid, which was for material that construction and demolition transfer
station develops. It can be used for landfill cover. I just wanted to bring to
the Board's attention, that we had been in touch with the DEC, who I know you
work with them. We do, also. I know you already resolved it, but just as a
note, on a monthly basis we have a lab company called Eco Test. They're out
of Babylon, and what we would be willing to if necessary, if you..the bid that.
you already accepted falls short of your needs, if you did go with our bid we
could have this company on a monthly basis send one of their representatives,
either to our facility, or to Cutchogue Landfill, where we were to deliver the
material, and they could pick it up, and sample it on a monthly basis, if
required. I just wanted to note that to the Board.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: The Town Board is looking into exactly this material
right now. The Task Force as a matter of fact, is doing some further investiga-
tion. Our Superintendent of Highways Ray Jacobs has done a tremendous amount
of investigation with this. We have a number of forms. First of all, the Code
does not allow us to take any material in from outside the town. Number two,
we are not an approved landfill by the DEC, and that's the only sort that can
use this cover material, according to the Regional Director who I just spoke to
the other day in reference to another matter, and the third is, that this was
for soil, and that is categoried as not considered to be soil. It's actually ground
wood, and so on like that. So it really is being looked into, and a lot of changes
would have to be made in the town, if we were to endeavor in that direction.
There have been many problems, as you know, with this material in the west
end towns with contamination, and the testing of such, and resulting cleanup
after contamination has been discovered, so the town right now is very leery
of moving in that direction, although the cost savings may, result at some point
in the future, the Task Force is looking right now into that to get some further
information on it, if the Town may desire to move in that direction sometime,
like I said, maybe next year or sometime after that.
GREG SULLIVAN: Thank you, very much, and I understand your precautions.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: I also spoke to Mr. Matheson on this issue about a week
ago. He called up, and also for clarrification I explained that to him, also. Is
there any other member of the audience, that would like to ask this Board any
question? (No response.) If not, is there any member of the Board, that would
move to adiourn?
COUNCILMAN WICKHAM: I would just like to make a brief comment. We've held
two meeting so far of the Stewardship Initiative, one in Cutchogue, one in
Southold last week. I think both meetings were quite well attended. There
were a series of vigorous questions, that were put. This week there are no
further meetings, but the following week there will be, and the week after that,
there will be meetings 'n Mattituck, Orient, Greenport, and Fishers Island.
Various members of the Town Board have indicated an interest in playing a part
in these meetings, and I think we're getting a very good exchange, and
an assor~men[ of views from the people out there about the planning horizon for
the town. I should also point out that the Task Force, which has been created
by the Town Board, the applications of interested people are still open until the
first of April. So, those people who have an interest in planning questions,
who would like to participate in a Task Force looking at the long term stewardship
concerns of the town, in a well rounded manner. Qualifications are basically
a willingness to work long hours, and put in some pretty tough hard work on
matter relating to the water, and planning, on business, economic growth and
development, affordable housing. There's a whole range of subjects that's
important to the town. Those of you, who are interested I hope that you apply,
and express an interest, to the Town Clerk Office.
SUPERVISOR HARRIS: Is there any other member of the Board? (No response.)
In closing, I'd just like to reiteriate one thing, there was a headline in The
Suffolk Times, one of our local papers, last week about the Rec Department being
abolished. Never could anything be further from the truth. This Town Board
has never endeavored upon abolishing the Rec Department, nor will it ever talk
about abolishing. What this Board is talking about is improving, and expanding
those facilities, and making more programs available to the needs of Southold
Town. I'd just like to get that message out, that despite what you read, I think
at one time it was said, my death has been greatly exaggerated, and I think the
reports of such, and I think that is an example of what has happened here with
Rec Department, and what you've been reading about. This Town has endeavored
to improve that facility, and will do so in years to come, and I just want to put
that in as point of clarification before we close. Thank you. I motion to adjourn.
Moved by Councilman Wickham, seconded by Councilwoman Hussie, it was
RESOLVED that the Town Board meeting be and hereby is adjourned at 5:07 P.M.
Vote of the Town Board: Ayes: Councilwoman Hussie, Councilman Lizewski,
Councilman Wickham, Councilman Penny, Supervisor Harris.
This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED.
