Supervisor Murphy requested Mr. Perricone to produce covenants and restricts with respect to the open space and roads in the subdivision, and to have them reviewed by Planner Scopaz. Mr. Perricone left the meeting and returned within an hour with the covenants. and restrictions which had been filed with the County Clerk, and which were reviewed with Planner Scopaz and Acting Town Attorney Yakaboski, and the Board agreed to release the performance bond (see resolution no. 15) . 11 :00 A.M. - Insurance Consultant William F. Mullen, Jr.. , along with Accountant John Cushman, met with the Board, and Mr. Mullen advised them that the Town has received insurance reimbursements to. date from the Stype Agency totalling $65,806.00. He was looking for $120,000.00, therefore. there should be additional reimbursements forthcoming. For the year 1987 he expects to receive between $40,000.00. and $50,000.00 in reimbursements.---Mr. Mullen said he expects to have prices from two medical insurance .carriers within a week. 11 :15 A.M. - Mr. Chasrles Zahra and his attorney Eric Bressler met with the Town Board, Acting Town Attorney Yakaboski and Executive Administrator of the Build- ing Department Lessard to discuss Mr. Zahra's Appeal from Denial of Access to Records. Acting Town Attorney Yakaboski reviewed the circumstances leading to the appeal: Mr. Zahra's request for copies of the files maintained by the Building Depart- ment for the time period November .1, .19.85 to November 4, 1987; a review of the files by the Building Department determining the cost of the copies of these records to be $3,274.50, which Mr. Zahra was asked to pay in advance of. the copying; a letter from Mr. Bressler requesting permission for Mr. Zahra to bring his own copy machine into the Town Hall, which was denied.. When Mr. Zahra was denied permission to bring his copy machine into the Town Hall, . he then came in in early November and began examining the files in the Build- ing Department, current and non-current, from November 1, 1985 to November 4, 1987. The major problem is that the files are stored. in the Town Hall baseement and requires .a. clerk to go up and down stairs to retrieve them, and the only space for reviewing the files is in the Building Department office, which is over-crowded, and the situation became disruptive. Mr. Lessard imposed a time limitation of one hour. and a half in the afternoon, and Mr. Zahra and Mr. Bressler complied with the limitation. 453 DECEMBER 15, 1987 On November 30, 1987 M'r. Lessard�d`enied;Mr-. Zahra further, access, and the Appeal resulted. Mr. lessard estimates that all o.f.,ahe current file's and 'about 3,000 put-away files have been examined by Mr.. Zahra. There are about 1,,000 more files to, examine. �.. Aside .from the examination, no request for 'photo copies has .been. made subsequent to this time. Mr. Yakaboski stated that: one of the reasons for this meeting is to point out the problems to the Town Board:, and also to try to rationally work out some:..means, in terms of time and physically where the review of the., files can. be done so that the general operations of the Building Department and the Town Hall are not disrupted for a longer period of time. Mr. Yakaboski does not feel that the ,files should be delivered to a citizen and he/she left alone with; them; and that is the reason why all of the work must be done in the presence of someone. The law pertaining to public access was reviewed with the Town ..Board, .and ..they determined that Mr. Zahra should be permitted.to continue reviewing the. remain- ing files on a full-time basis so his review may .be completed as quickly as possible. They directed Mr. Lessard to .assign a clerk full-time to supply Mr. Zahra with the records, and effective December 16, 1987 the Meeting Hall or Town Board Room , will be used, provided they are available (excepting court d.ays or other scheduled meetings or hearings) Mr. Bressler and Mr. Zahra agreed to the arrangement. EXECUTIVE SESSION 11 :40 A.M. - The Town Board and Acting Town Attorney Yakaboski .met with Engineer Robert Brown of Sidney B.owne Engineering, Raymond Dean,.,. Inspector for Sidney Bowne, and Gary Taylor of Rogers and Taylor, Appraisers; to discuss the Sisu Development property, Horton Lane, Southold,, the subject of a proceeding under the Eminent Domain Procedure:.Law. 1 :15 P.M. - Recess for lunch. 2:30 P.M. - Work Session reconvened. and the Town Board met with Joseph Fischetti, Jr. to discuss Mr. Fischetti's proposal to create a course in "Constructing Your Own Affordable Home"; a course tor teach individuals, who are pre-selected by the Town as being in need, to act as their own general contractor in building their own home. The course would provide, two or three affordable house designs, a detailed set of material take-offs and complete set of cost estimates, with the course _ teaching the students-how to use them. The course could provide a preferred sub- contractors list (a point questioned by Councilman Penny) using local tradesmen who would be willing to work with the "students".. Perhaps material supplies, and subcontractors would be willing to give a discount to these special people:. The Board agreed the proposal has merit and suggested Mr. Fischetti work with Community Development Administrator Jim McMahon to prepare a list. of qualified people for such a program. 2:45 P.M. - For Discussion Items: (1) Letter from Roger Burns, Superintendent. . of Schools, Matt ituck-Cutchogue School District, requesting the Town Board to amend the Scavenger Waste Ordinance and Alarm Systems Law to exclude _local tax supported organizations such as school districts, free libraries, and fire departments.--Under the Scavenger Waste Ordinance, a. law .which. required State approval, exemptions are prohibited. With respect to the Alarm Law, exemptions..will be discussed with Chief of Police Winters. (2) Letter from Henry 'E. Raynor, Jr. , representing the Norris-Wanat change of zone, advising that the Planning Board cannot proceed further with. th6Qlreview of the zone change until certain information and:determinations are obtained from the Suffolk County Department of Health. Services, and Health Services will only supply _the required information to a municipal agency.

COUNCILMAN. PENNY: Just that I was present at a Water Advisory meeting which Paul will probably follow-up on,. and that was on the 7th. An interview for the Town Attorney on the 8th. That seems to be about it. Thank you. SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Jay? COUNCI LMAN SCHONDEBARE : Nothing, Frank, thank you.. SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Paull COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH : I had two nice occasions. On the December 6ih was at the American Legion and we celebrated the problems of Pearl Harbor, and then that evening .I went down and they had the Christmas Tree lightinq at the hospital, which was another nice event. Then we had this Water Advisory Committee- meeting on December 7th, which was a combined meeting of the. Water Advisory Committee and the Farmland Preservation Committee, and members of the DEC who are in land purchase to give some information as to how they went about.'it.- We also had Bob Villa, who is the President of the Farmland Committee, and also a member of the Water Advisory Committee, present a very elaborate map which showed a watershed area that the Water Advisory Committee have accepted. This area is approximately 500 feet south of the railroad track, extending on the west side of Mattituck, from the border of Riverhead and Laurel to I think it's Cox's Lane. Then it's about 1500 feet north of the railroad tracks to approximately where the Lilco power line is. Then we skip the hamlet of Mattituck and. start at Mill Lane in Mattituck in this area again 500 feet and the Lilco power line, all the way east to about Ackerly Pond Lane--a little past ,that to Greenport's pumping station. The hope is that this will be an area--overlay area on our Master Plan Map so that we'll be very particular what goes on in this area,. because this has been determined to-be the watershed area. If you think of land coming down it would then percolate into the ground and run north and south from this center line, a divide, and therefore = nothing run into this area from the farmalnds and therefore there should be fairly . pristine water under this area. We're meeting with the Planning Board this .coming Thursday, and we will then have a joint meeting with them to set up some perhaps_ rules and regulations. I think that's it, Frank.. . SUPERVISOR MURPHY : Thank you, Paul. Jean? COUNCILWOMAN COCHRAN : Yes, I 've had several meetings, in addition to affordable housing. Also 'l had the opportunity to take part in one'. of the programs that the Recreation Center was providing as far as the trip to the Nassau Colliseum to see "Disney On Ice", and l just say that I had more.fun-then the kids, but it was great watching the kids that went and the excitement when Mickey Mouse skated out on the ice. Also I would, like to make note of a letter received from Gregory Blass, that the County Legislature has approved our Supported Work Project Program. This is for the handicapped--in the budget of 88, and that they have--he suggested . that Mrs. Cardona and her group reinforce the importance of this program to County Executive Michael LoGrande so that it is included in the final budget. Also I would like to take a moment to read a letter from Peg Katzenberg .. Unfortunately I wasn't aware that she was leaving in the ,beginning of December, but I think it's important in relation to the work that she has done by serving as Chairman of the Substance Abuse Committee, that the letter is entered into the record, and that the Board unanimously--the minutes show that the Board unanimously expresses their grateful appreciation to Mrs. Katzenberg for her contribution to the community. "Dear Jean.: This is not an easy letter to write. I have always known that I could never live long enough to end substance abuse in Southold Town, but I do believe I saw myself working at it right up to my end. Now I feel like a quitter because I've been persuaded that I should go -to a warmer climate for the winter months this year. DECEMBER 15, 1987 4 .56 1 , me, am getting a late start on December 17th. As President of CAST Betty Price will call or write you. soon to arrange for the next meeting in early'January. During the past three years I 've had. an amazing,, exciting, learning and working experience. For 57 years I have spent at least four months of the year in Southold, and for the past 11 of these all 12 months. I thought I knew my Town and it's people well, but not so. Never had I imagined such an outpouring of community support and help. The Substance Abuse Committee started with four members in 1975. Since then more than 60 people have actually worked for it 'and/or on a committee for*Substance Abuse Awareness Week. Hundreds more,. school children making posters or bumper stickers, writing essays or playing games. Citizens of all ages as members of support civic groups, religious groups and the business community. The Police Department, school administrators, faculties, parent associations, Town and Village officials and staff, and the press, have all helped willingly.and generously. I know our efforts must continue and that you will see that they do. I 'll be around on or before April 1st, '88 and I hope that as a part-timer I may work with you again. You've given a great deal of support and I shall always be grateful. All good wishes for a joyous holiday and for a better than ever 1988. Ever fondly, Peg." And I'm sure the Board joins me in expressing their grateful appreciation for the work that Peg did with the Substance Abuse Committee, and Judy, I would like.for her to get a copy of the minutes, please. Because she's .left and we should have presented her with some recognition, Frank. That's it, thank you. SUPERVISOR MURPHY : Thank you, Jean. Ray? JUSTICE EDWARDS : Yes, a week ago yesterday Brad Burnham, President. of the Fishers Island Civic Association flew me over to Southold and we sat down with Supervisor Murphy, Henry Smith. and Larry_ Penny., and we talked over the new Environmental Consultant's job on Fishers Island. Mr. Penny is coming over to the Island on Saturday for a little brief look around and to get associated with his office over there, and transportation. After the first of the year Larry Penny is coming to the Island to meet with all the contractors and just make himself known and. what his duties will be over there. Last Friday I had an opportunity to go to a breakfast over in Niantic, Connecticut, put on by Northeast Utility, and it's just an informational film for the local first selectmen and mayors of the towns surrounding the Millstone Atomic Power Plants there, just to touch base with the. people and let them know about this new informational film that is available and then after that breakfast I had a personal three.hour tour of Millstone l I I , which is down now for refueling, and it's a time that they can really take the people in and out of the plant and show them how it works and �so forth and so on. I had been involved with Millstone I and 11 in putting in the telephone systems way back when , and it's amazing the amount of work that they've done there in the past ten years, and I can safely say that. all three..units have been very safely operating._ for ten or twelve years, beginning with Unit 1 , then Unit 11 , and now Unit Ill . - It's .quite. impressive. That's it, Frank, thank you. SUPERVISOR MURPHY : Thank you, Ray. The only thing 1'd like to add is I 'm very happy to see it reported that the Suffolk County Water Authority is taking over Captain Kidd's, Water District on a contract, I believe, today, and will be taking it over officially very shortly. 11 .
