1. The meeting started at 7:30. Members present were Bob Bayley, Bob Kassner, Bill Peters and
John Stack. Valerie Marvin, Ralph Williams came after his Boy Scout committment and Harry
Fagan was excused.
2. Last months minutes were reviewed and accepted.
3. Bob Bayley led the critique of the Preservation Award. The suggestions were:
A. Either a large photo of the building or a slide of it should be visible during the reasing
of the citation.
B. A gallery of the picture and the citation should be,placed in an appropriate place in
Town Hall.
4. Valeri Marvin gave a fine explanation of easements and how they can be used for historic
preservation. Valerie also led the discussion of the proposed changes for the definitions of Local
Law#1. When the latest suggestions are incorporated copies will be submitted to the Town
Board for their action. We are indeed fortunate to have Valerie's legal expertise available to us.
5.Due to communication problems the Webb House research will be posponed until further no-
tice..
6. The Nathan$. Seidman house in Orient was examined on Sunday April 17th. Bob Bayley will
do drawings and write a draft report to get the application for registration completed.
7. Bob Bayley will also start the write-up on the McIntosh House.
S. C. B. Moore's speech, Celebration of the 250th Anniversary of the formation of the
Town and the Church of Southold, L.I. August 271990. will be discussed at the June
Meeting.
9. Bill,Ralph and John met with the Southold Historical Society on April 21st at 1;30. They re-
viewed houses selected by the Society for inclusion of their Historic District. A visit to the King
House was most interesting. The house has been rotated on it's foundation but the celler beams
show where additions were made. The first house shows 1700s age including dust stops. We also
attended the meeting with the NY State reps of PRHP when they came to Southold to preview
the application. The State was not very encouraging. We felt they showed a degree of short-sight-
edness.
10. Ralph reported on Frank Turano's defence of his doctoral proposal at Stony Brook University.
This Thesis will cover 4 years of archeological digs that took place at the Terry-Mulford House.
The ammount of material collected should form the basis for several theses and a few books also.
11. Ralph, Bill and John have been helping a group in Orient with their application for a Scenic
Highway designation from the DEC. We have been involved with video that will be used as a nar-
ative of the highway.
12. Our next meeting is scheduled for Junel7, 1993 at 7:30 PM

John A. Stack Chairman.
