The proposal will not have a substantial adverse effect on the aesthetic, historical or architectural significance of the listed landmark. • Ms. Hussie and Mr. Smith appeared before the Commission twice and made the changes recommended by the Commission, i.e. using the more elegant turned spindles shown on plan A-1 that more appropriately match the style and color of those on the front porch of the building. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Southold Town Landmarks Preservation Commission determines that the proposal as presented at the public hearing meets criteria for approval under Section 56-7 (b) of the Town Code, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Commission unanimously approves the request f r Certifi to of Appropriateness.
