9:15 A.M. - Deputy Superintendent of Highways Raymond Jacobs met with the Board
to discuss the bids received for a new or used 4-1/4 yard articulated payloader. He
said he had discussed this 'with' Superintendent of Highways Dean and their recommenda-
tion would be to accept the lower' bidder George Malvese: & 'Co., Inc. (see .Resolution
No. 31) for supplying a new Komatsu at a net cost of $99,000.00. ` Malvese is a
reputable firm with a. long history of experience..and the Highway Department has
always received good products' and service from them.

money to begin operating an 18 bed nursing home unit at the Eastern Long Island
Hospital. Mrs...,Rich stated' that Dr. Hansen and Administrator Mrs. Dixon estimate

with the board on' September 24th to discuss this request for funding.
9:40 A.M. -- Assessor Chairman Charles C. Watts met with the Board to request the
appointment of a Clerk-Typist and an Assessment Clerk in his department (see
Resolutions 34 E 38) . The Board agreed to call for the civil service certification
lists for those positions.

urge them to place a resolution on the regular meeting agenda calling for a referendum,
to be held on December 10th, for the approval or disapproval of the establishment of
a public electric utility system in the Town at an estimated maximum cost of $23,555, 000.
Mr. Webb indicated his feeling that the Town Board is stalling on this issue when
Councilman Schondebare and other members objected to the proposed resolution,
prepared by Mr. Webb, as being inaccurate and not in proper form. Councilman
Schondebare explained that there were other steps, i.e. consultation' with bond - - --
counsel and special attorneys, before calling for a public referendum. Mr. Webb
volunteered the services of SEACOM to set of public informational meetings to
educate the public before a December 10th referendum. Councilmen Townsend and
Cochran stated this public forum should be conducted by the Town Board, not SEACOM,
and only after receiving input from bonding counsel and special attorneys with expertise
in this field. A delegate to the Annual Conference of Municipal Electric Utilities Associa-
tion of New York State was suggested, (see. R�esolution No. 11) , and after meeting
with Greenport Village Superintendent of Utilities Monsell later in the morning, it way
agreed Town Justice Edwards should represent the Town. 'Ji ,

and several League members appeared before the Board to discuss the unfinished
items on the new addition to the Dog Pound, and the dire need for the construction
of a new administration building and demolition of the existing one. Mrs. Cora Stoll.
implored the Board to take immediate action. She stated that the building cannot be
used another winter under the existing conditions. The dogs were freezing and would
have been warmer out on their own running at large. It is estimated that between
$20, 000 and $25,000 will be neded to building the new administration building and
kennels and the Board agreed to go forward on the project, using Community Develop-
ment funds; under the guidance of the Superintendent of Highways for contracting
the construction.
11:00 A.M. = Greenport Villaqe Superintendent of Utilities James Monsell met with the
to discuss proposed Resolutions •19, water districts, and 5, Moratorium on "B". S "C"
Districts., which Supervisor Murphy asked be tabled until the Town Board meets with
SEPTEMBER 10, 1985 q
the. Village Board on September 16th to discuss these issues: (Councilman Stoutenburgh
at this point suggested bi-monthly meetings with the Village Board to discuss mutual
concerns and the Board members, concurred.) Village Clerk Nancy W. Cook appeared
before the Board to hand-deliver a resolution of the. Village Board, adopted on August
22, 1985, calling for a six: month moratorium on any further contracts for water service
to be located outside the Incorporated Vilalge of Greenport. Mr. Monsell stated that
this moratorium would give the Village an opportunity to study and evaluate the existing
system and the potential for increased supply and service within the franchise area,
which would update their ',I 982 study.
11:30 A.M. - For Discussion items: (1) Town Attorney Tasker explained the proposed .
"Local Law providing for the defense of Town Officers and Employees". Councilman
Townsend expressed a concern that such a law would result in a substantial increase
in the cost of the Town's insurance coverage. He volunteered to contact the Town's
insurance carriers to for a determination of the cost. (2) Lonq Island Jewish Medical
Center, 1-day conference entitled, "Controversial Issues in Environmental Health", to
be held on September 27th. A Town representative will attend. (3) Letter from the
Southold Planning Board relative to Park and Playground Fees. This will be discussed
at the 4:30 P.M. meeting with the Planning Board. (4) SEACOM's response to the.
Beck feasibility study; which report the Board will review ,individually. (5) Request:
of Town Trustee Bredemeyer for the Board to allocate $2, 000 to engage the services
of the ECO Test Laboratory to perform F.D.A. approved water analysis bacteriological
testing on samplings obtained from Arshamomaque Pond and Mattituck Creek in an attempt
to secure a second Conditional Shellfish Permit from the NYS-DEC. The Board agreed
this is extremely important and needed and placed Resolution No. 36 pertaining to same
on the agenda. (6) Letter from Executive Administrator Lessard relative to the Village
of Greenport six month moratorium on water supply and the implications with respect
to increased costs to developers. The Board will discuss this at their September 16th
meeting with the Village. (7) Receipt of resumes for the part-time Buildina Department
Clerk on Fishers Island. Executive Administrator Lessard and Building Inspector
Horton will schedule an interview on Fishers Island within the week. (8) Letter.
from the Lagoon Association requesting the. Board to allocate $2, 000 for fiscal year
1986 to assist the Association in their maintenance dredging, jetty work and other
projects to maintain the navigability of their:area. The Association expect to expend
between $38, 000 and $48,000 during 1986.--The-.ToWn Board established a policy, in
September of 1984, not to contribute Town funds to private dredging projects.
Furthermore, although the Lagoon is Town waters, the Suffolk County Department
'of Public Works, Division of Waterways conducts dredging projects within the Town,
but they will not dredge areas where public access is not available and are holding
firm to their policy------Councilman Townsend proposed to the Town Board that
the scallop season be postponed for a month. He has spoken to the DEC and they
feel such a postponment would be advantageous, and the Baymen are in agreement.
The growth of the scallop muscle has been retarded by the bloom of algae and is
beginning to grow but would need about a month more to reach harvestable size.
Councilman Townsend will contact the Town Trustees,' who are the ones that must
pass a resolution to close the creeks to scalloping, and ask them to meet with the
Town Board after the evening meeting.---Councilman Townsend also expressed concern
to the Board about the delay of Morley Associates in submitting appraisals for the
Farmland Preservation Committee. Town Attorney Tasker will write a letter on the
Town Board's behalf.
12: 15 - Town Clerk Judith Terry brought to the Board's attention her recent project
of repair and restoration of Town record books. Up to the present time 29 volumes
of highway, Town Board minutes, births, deaths, marriages, have been restored with
new color-coded covers at a cost of as little as $18. 00 each in some instances, and
$153.00 for volumes that have badly deteriorated. The original covers have been
retained in the vault 'for-historical purposes. There are numerous volumes remaining
to be restored, but it is hoped this project will be completed by the middle of 1986.
The question of microfilming some of these records was discussed and research will
be done to accomplish that phase of the preservation of the records.
12:25 P.M. - Recreation Director Susan Fossett stopped by the meeting room-to advise
the Town Board that registration for the. various recreation programs is going very well.
12:26. - Recess for lunch.
2:00 P.M. - The Town Board audited the outstanding vouchers, and reviewed the
resolutions for the regular meeting.

Change of Zones, as well 'as the Planning Board's-recommendation for park and
playground fee for minor subdivisions (currently in the Subdivision Regulations)
and the establishment of a Town-wide park and recreation fund.

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: And at this time 1 would like to 'ask Bob Duffy if he
would like to make some comments to the Town Board? Would you come up Bob,
and Bob, maybe you and Bill (Stilwagen) would come. up and I could give you
your---maybe you'd like to make your comments first. Go ahead.
MR. BOB DUFFY: Thank you, Mr. Supervisor and members of the Town Board.
Good evening. It's a privilege for me to be here as part of the national movement
to keep America's awareness for the POW/MIA question from the Vietnam 4'1,'ar. There
are close to 2500 unaccounted for Americans in. Vietnam, Laos or Cambodia. When we
were in military training one of the things we were taught was to trust in God and
the United States of American and that this-country would never break faith with
its fighting men. I'll .leave it to you to decide after. you read some of the literature
that we brought here tonight whether it was God or the United States who broke that
faith. We haven't stopped in our efforts to keep pressure on Washington to get a full

changes in the policy of the federal government. There were also changes in the
policy of the. Vietnamese government. Their economy is in a shambles. They're
desperate for diplomatic recognition. . Our government's been firm that until there's
a full accounting and that they :leave Cambodia, that this government will not recognize
them. There has been movement.. Starting..this spring .the. Vietnamese said that they
want to end these issues. within two years. Assemblyman John Behan will be taking
a delegation September 21st hopefully to. Vietnam. They're just waiting final approval.
He spoke to the North. Vietnamese ambassador who assured him that they want to end
this issue. I'd like to introduce now Bill Stilwagen who's just been in contact with
The League of. Families in Washington, .who is on the recent federal delegation and
came .back just a week and a half ago: Bill?
MR. WILLIAM STILWAGEN : Thank you, Bob. My name is Bill Stilwagen. 1 represent
the East End POW/MIA Committee of the Suffolk County Chapter of the Vietnam Veterans
of America. We have a copy of our latest POW/MIA report for everyone here. If
anybody didn't get one they're in the back. I'd also like to give a copy of the latest
Department of Defense Fact Book to the Town Clerk to be put on file, and each month
we will mail you a copy of our POW. Report to the Town Clerk and hopefully that you'll
put it on file for anybody, who would like to see it. In 1973 all the American
combat troops were withdrawn from Vietnam upon signing the Paris Peace Accords.
Supposedly all POW's were repatriated and all remains that the Vietnamese had were
returned. Ten an amazing phenomena occurred. America developed amnesia. In
1975 South Vietnam was being overwhelmed by communist forces from the north. The
U. S. Congress voted no aid at all for the South Vietnamese government. It turned
its backs on them and closed its eyes and South Vietnam died. The C.I.A. left -its
files in Saigon with the names of over 50, 000 Vietnamese who. were loyal to the. United
States and we all know what happed to those people. In 1976 President Jimmy Carter
declared all POW/MIA's dead. Issue closed. Over 2500 of our sons and brothers were
then lost. The names are on the wall and there's a gravestone for each one of them.
in' Arlington Cemetery. Good ole Jimmy Carter is going to spend some time in Hell
for that one, because in 1979 Private Bobby Garwood made it .out of. North. Vietnam
and he told-Lis of 40 others. he knew that were alive. Thousands of refugee reports
on live sightings, live sighting reports from foreigners who now work in Vietnam,
C.I.A. tracking reports and satellite photographs now tell us that there are Americans
still left in. Vietnam and they are being held against their will. There are approximately
169 of them. The Reagan Administration finally reversed the Carter policy by declaring
the POWIMIA .issue of highest- national priority. In 1983 the Vietnamese release 150
French prisoners that they had held since 1954. During 1984 National POW/MIA
. Recognition Week the President of the United States promised that the federal govern-
ment would never abandon the POWIMIA's and and added that the POW/MIA families
would never again be alone in their struggle. During the 1985 National POWIMIA
Recognition Week the Vice President of the United States said that the intelligence
assets of the United States are fully focused on the matter of the POWIMIA's and if
we can get hard evidence that the Americans are still held in Vietnamese prisons,
we're pledged to do whatever's necessary to get them- out. In July 1985 for the
first time the Department of Defense, through their investigations on live sightings,
has now refused to rule out the possibility that our brothers are being held captive.
And just two weeks ago the .Vietnamese have finally admitted that there may just be
some .left alive in their country. I spoke with Mary Louise Scott from the POW/MIA
League of .Families in Washington, who had just spoke- to Ann Mills Griffiths, who had
returned from Vietnam last week, and they're very encouraged and very excited about
the Vietnamese turn around, -and they're just overwhelmed that their loved ones could
still be alive. . The Town of Southold is going to fly the POW/MIA flag. We. are
grateful to them. We're grateful to you for having the guts to say in essence to
Washington: We're tired of waiting and we're tired- of rhetoric. We want them accounted
for now. We know that you join the Vietnam Veterans of America in opposing the
callous attitude of dead until proven alive. All of our brothers were alive when they
were sent to Vietnam and to date there has been not one shread of evidence, no bit
of proof whatsoever to prove that they are no longer living. There are 2,464 of our
sons and brothers who are still left in Southeast Asia and these are the last of the
American heros. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: ' Thank you, Bill. Is there anyone else would like to speak
for- your organization? Dick?

SEPTEMBER 10, 1985
RICHARD DIEHL: Supervisor Murphy, members of the Town Board. Belatedly
would like to thank you for permitting the new tax law to become effective in the
Town of Southold and on behalf of all the veterans in Southold Town we appreciate
that. We knew you'd do the right thing. Secondly I'd like to state that the MIA/POW
issue is not going to go away. In addition to' 2400 Vietnamese there are 8000 missing
from the Korean War yet. . No issue has been made of this fact, but that is a fact.
So we're talking of over 10, 000 Americans who are still being held and have been
written off by the government of this country. ' That's not right. We appreciate
your efforts. I would like to also at this time volunteer our services, the Color Guard
of the Southold Town American Legion, Post 803, to officially raise your flag. We
have an excellent, outstanding Color Guard, as you know. We'd like the privilege
of raising that flag at the Town Hall when it's prepared. . Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:.. Thank :you. We'll be glad to do that. Bob, or Bill, would
YOU want to address the issue. we weren't sure about your wanting this flag' to be
flown all the time and will you explain the purpose to the Town Board. We weren't
sure, that's why we set upon the one week.
MR: DUFFY: The traditional method of flying the flag is to fly it 24 hours a day
until there's a full accounting of the missing men and if that could be adjusted in
the amendment or resolution we'd really appreciate it. There are towns that declared
a POW/MIA week but the flag .continues to, fly. We. have the flag here tonight that
we'd like to present to the Town Board.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Bob, _you want to also address about the light. Is it necessary
to have a light on. We don't happen to fly ours.
MR. DUFFY: No, it's not necessary to have a light on. It's fine to just continue
to fly the flag and lights are not show on the flag particularly at night or specified
to be.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Now, what i.s the procedure in other areas. Is this flown
when there is no American flag flying?
MR. DUFFY: Fly it below the American flag.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Okay, when there's no American flag, should we have a
separate pole, or should we keep it on that, is there a side---.
MR. DUFFY: It could be do' any way on a yardarm or separate pole. Either way
that's most convenient to whatever physical arrangements that you have.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: How about if we saw about a yardarm on the side for when
we took the flag down, the American flag down, we could still leave that up is your
suggestion?
MR. DUFFY: Yes, that's .the way it's being done across the country.
.SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . Okay, we weren't. sure.
MR. DUFFY: I'd like to present the flag now.. . This is the' official POW/MIA flag.
This is designed by the. League of Families and it's being flown across the country.
There has been quite a few TV shows on. Many, many towns in New England are
flying the flag and Riverhead Town is flying the flag and we'd like you to accept
this for our missing brothers and we're hoping that there will be a speedy return.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY; As Supervisor it's my honor to accept this flag and thank you
and thank you for your efforts. Please take this proclamation from the entire Town
Board.
MR. DUFFY. E MR. STILWAGEN : Thank you very much.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Dick,_ we'll contact you and we'.11--1 believe it's Monday
that we'll set it up. Bob, if any of you people could be there at that time too. Oka
MR. DUFFY: Yes, we would be. Whatever time we'll be here.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you.

COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: We had the Commerce and Industry Committee meeting,
and then we had a Code Committee meeting last night and the outcome of all that will
be made known tonight.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Joseph?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: *We had--I .attended Jay's Code Committee meeting, and
this morning we had a Landfill Committee meeting discussing some problems that we
may have to deal with four years from now and I think it's time for the Town to
decide in what direction it definitely wants to go regarding the closure of the Landfill
in ,1990 because according to the DEC the Landfill will be closed in 1990 for all solid
waste except for ash and bypassed if we chose to incinerate. So I think it's time to
make a decision in that area. We also analyzed the bids on the new front-end loader
and ended up saving about $20,000 from what we thought we were going to have to
pay for what appears to be a.very good machine. The STOP Program, which I'm sure
we'll hear a little bit more about, was discussed, the plans for that, somewhat. We
are going to schedule a meeting with the head of the local DEC, Mr. Berger and Merle
Wiggins to discuss the closure of the Landfill. Last Friday, this weekend and Monday
worked on trying to develop a program to see if we could save what scallops we have
left in the Bay and perhaps work out a plan of action for the future and I think the
Board is going to be considering that later on tonight when the Trustees come in.
went to .the League of Women. Voters meeting at which. Paul spoke at and I'm sure
he'll fill you in that. That's all -I have, Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Joe. Paul?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH : Yes, -1 also was. at your Landfill meeting and looked
in and spoke a little bit 'at your Code Committee meeting and was at a 'Water Advisory
Committee meeting last night which again brings up the -complicated problems of water
and one them we're finding out is that we're hopefully going to have a meeting with
.Greenport, a combined meeting of Boards and Water Advisory Committee in the
audience in the very" near future in which we're going to work out; we hope,
some understanding so there will not be any confusion and misunderstanding
between the Village and the Town. This is normal to do and we're going to take
up some of the problems that are confronting the Town, not only with water but
other things. The most important one is our coming STOP Program this Saturday.
It's going to be between 9:00 and 3:00 in the afternoon. We've already put up a
hundred posters in our community. We put oUt 2,000 flyers. We :have 2,000 more
printed and these will be handed out, we hope, by volunteers at shopping centers
and places of this sort on Thursday and Friday, plus other areas. If you know of
anyone who has got any household toxic materials around, anything from old pesticides
to drain cleaners or old paints, Saturday is the time to get rid of them at our Land-
fill. - We hope the .papers will pick this 'up and give us -a tremendous boost so that
we'll be able to cover this most important, one a year, event--one time a year event.
1 think that's all 1. have, Frank.
SUPERVISOR' MURPHY:. .' Thank you, Paul. . Jean?'
COUNCILWOMAN. COCHRAN: Yes, along with-Jay met with the Chamber of Commerce.
Also I'd .like to report that it looks like, the Chamber of Commerce building is finally
-on the horizon. . The bid specs have been formulated, for which I'd like to thank Vic
Lessa.rd .of -the Building- .Department 'for this support to the community. Also the
Recreation :Committee met in' relation to .program development and formulation of the
•1986 budget. We've just finished up reviewing the zoning map. in relation to the
Planning Board. 1 also attended. Councilman Schondebare's Code Committee last
evening and I would just like to add that as a "member of thle—STUP Committee, Paul
and I have spent a few hours together lately, and Paul, I realize how important it
is that the promotion has been to this campaign, running around with flyers, running
around with posters. I think. there's one more thing we can do, Paul, and I would
like to present this to you in fun and- in good health. Would you please open it?
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH :• It's got to be a STOP T-shirt. It is. There we
are. "Southold Town. S.T..O.P." Thank you. '1 will. wear that Saturday.
COUNCILWOMAN. COCHRAN : . That's it,. Frank.'

JUSTICE. EDWARDS: Well,- with the passing of Labor Day the Island has gotten a
little quieter. 1 went over on the ferryboat to. New London on Sunday at 3:00 o'clock
and it was completely full. -Coming back Monday morning the cars were still coming
back from the Island, so I really don't know what's going. on: The Mosquito Program
that we had out there this summer .with the four girls, two of them were paid by the
Town of Southold and two by local funds, did a--I'll say a Hell of a job over there,
and the:people only realized how good a job they did when it came time for the to
go off to school just before Labor Day. The past couple of weekends I attended a
couple of affairs on the Island the people said that they never had the mosquito
problem until after Labor Day. So it was very successful and I hope we can get
the same girls back there again next year. It really made some difference and I
believe there will be some kind of report to the Town now that the program is
.finished. That's .it, Frank. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:. Thank you, Ray. I would just like to at this time thank
Jean and Paul for doing really an excellent job on this STOP Program,, and also to
thank the papers and everyone else who worked on.-it,--but as. Board members, and
to thank the papers and the citizens of. the Town who gave so much of their time

LOCAL LAW NO. - 1985
A Local Law in relation to the regulation of
Floating Homes in the Town of Southold
BE IT ENACTED. by the Town Board of the Town of Southold, as follows:
I. Article IV of Chapter 32 (Boats, Docks and Wharves) of the Code of the

32-43 are renumbered 32-50, 32-51, 32-52 and 32-53 respectively.
11. Chapter 32 (Boats, Docks and Wharves) of the Code of the Town of South
is hereby amended by adding a new Article thereto, to be Article IV, to read as follos:
ARTICLE IV
FLOATING HOMES
Section 32-40.. Legislative Intent. .
The Town Board finds that watercraft are being. used for strictly.
residential' ..purposes on ....waterways. :_within' the Town of Southold: The
proliferation of this type of us'e is ' expected to create significant
environmental problem if their 'proliferation remains unchecked.
. .The..Town . Board recognizes that the waterways surrounding the Town
are one of the' primary recreation areas on Long Island. They are used for
swimming, fishing and boating by many of the local residents and visitors.
Furthermore., waterways are a 'major commercial resource providing food and
-.._ :`i`;••` bin'} . i', -.. '

employment for . the harvesters ..of . fish and shellfish. . Shellfish taken
commercially- from said' waterways.:are..:,,distributed to all areasof the Eastern
Seaboard. The Town of Southold- has expended large sums of money -to
develop and protect the harvestable•-clam stock.'
The Town Board acknowledges its duty to protect the health, safety
and. welfare of its residents and visitors. The maintenance of high water
quality is 'vital to the use of said' waterways for recreational and 'commercial
purposes. The avoidance of all uses and activities which could introduce
pollution--•in'these waterways is of constant concern.
.The potential' .influx of craft and vessels for - residential- purposes
creates a substantial :danger to water quality in' said waterways. .The
residential use of these vessels - is contrary to the established character of
the .Town of Southold- and will'- severely diminish the recreational and
•commercial•-use-of said'waterways.'
The proliferation of Floating Homes and marinas which accomodate them
will -create problems which include, in' addition to' water pollution, trash
storage and removal, fire protection, emergency energy requirements during
power failures, loss of `mooring piles during winter icing conditions, damage
and sinking of vessels - during storms, all of which conditions impose
additional responsibilities on police, fire and other emergency agencies in the
Town.
._,The Town Board . .recognizes that the Town of Southold consists
primarily of developed year-round residential neighborhoods and .that marine
recreational uses are incidental to such residential uses, and that it ls' in the
best interests of the Town of Southold- and its residents to restrict and
prohibit.'.the . uncontrolled growth and burden on its waterways that would
res:ait if the infusion of Floating Homes is not controlled.
Section 32-41. Definitions.
As used in this Article- the words and terms used- herein are defined!
.as follows:
FLOATING HOME - Any vessel in fact used, designed or occupied as a
permanent dwelling- unit; business office, or source of any occupation,
or for any private or social club of whatever nature, including, but not
limited to, a structure constructed. upon a barge primarily- immobile and
out of navigation which functions substantially- as a land structure while
the same is moored or docked in or on Town Waterways within the Town
of Southold, whether such vessel is ' self propelled or not, and whose
volume co-eficient is greater .than three thousand (3,000) square feet.
Volume co-efficient is a ratio ' of the habitable- space. .of a vessel
.measured in cubic feet and the draft of a vessel measured in' feet of
depth.

This resolution was declared duly ADOPTED.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY:. . Okay, that's the end of our prepared agenda. Is there
any Councilman would. like to. say anything. further at this time? Ray?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: . One thing, Frank. I see the final report here on the Town
Clerk's monthly report and this probably final for the year, but the mooring fees
SEPTEMBER 10, 1985
31
on Fishers Island this year went from $2,505.00 in 1984 to $4,245.00 this year.
That's almost doubled. . That's just for people putting moorings in West Harbor and
it's been an excellent program. It has made the Harbor I can say, quote "more
orderly", and with the garbage dumpsters that were put down there on the shore
area where the boats come ashore'to refuel, take on water and so forthi, and it's
made that area a lot neater' .
and I'm happy to see the increase in the mooring fees
come up to sort of off-set the cost of the dumpsters that were put in there.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH': What are the fees for your moorings?
. JUSTICE EDWARDS: The fees for the moorings are $100 for all non-resident Island
people--those are the Connecticut boaters, and then the resident Islanders go from
$15..00 to under 25 foot, $45.00 up to 35 foot, and $50.00 over 35 for Island residents.

over? Can they pick up a mooring overnight?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: . The only guest moorings that are available on the Island are
some that are owned by the yacht club and some that are owned by the marina over
there. How much they get a night I couldn't tell you.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH : But there is no guest moorings per se?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Not for the.Town. The yacht club has some.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH : Just something that might someday happen in
Mattituck Creek, I don't know. Transients.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . Jean? (Nothing, thank you, Frank.) Paul? (Nope.)
Joe?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND. We wanted to have a discussion before we close the
meeting.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: We'll recess on that.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: And also the Trustees have been kind enough to come,
so maybe we can have a quick discussion with them on the scallop project.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY : Well, let's do the meeting. Do you have anything further?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Just on item 6.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Jay? (Nothing, thank you.) Okay.- I have nothing at
this time. Before we recess for a few moments. I would like to ask if anyone in
the audience, rather than delay them, if you would like to address the. Board?
Anyone over here on the left?
MARGARET SKABRY, Henrys Lane, Peconic: Four weeks ago we were told the
FAA would like to review the Airport Study, should take about two weeks.. I was
wondering if anything's happened since then? _
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: We called the consulting engineer and he said he! has a
letter and we have a letter in the mail that's coming--hasn't come here yet, requesting
another extension, I believe to the 20th. That';they haven't had the time--the FAA
hasn't had the time to reply. I spoke to Mr. Beach and Mr. Beach is calling the FAA
representative and asking him to please have this done so that we could have our
public information meeting.
MRS. SKABRY: . Then. September 20th is the earliest now?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . They've asked for that--.I .believe that's right, Dave, isn't
it? The 20th? Did you hear from Paul?
MR. DAVID SPOHN : That's .correct.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: The 20th. They've asked for an extension to the 20th to
allow them to contact--to make their comments known to the consultant, Mr. Puckli,
and shortly after that he'll .get his comments to us.
MRS. SKABRY: And then after that it still has to go to the Airport Advisory
Committee before we're allowed to have meetings?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes.
MRS. SKABRY: And that will take another few weeks.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Mr. Beach has promised us that he will rush it through.
MRS. SKABRY: Mr. Beach has to see it after the FAA?
SEPTEMBER 10, 1985
32
SUPERVISOR MURPHY : He's going to call the FAA and speak to them and ask them
to please make sure they comment in the time they've asked for.
MRS. SKABRY: So when the FAA gets it, then it comes back to the Town and then
the Town gives it to the Advisory Committee.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Doesn't come to the Town, it comes to the Advisory Committee.
Then it's presented to the Town.
MRS. SKABRY: So it will be probably well over a month by then.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY : I hope not, but if it is there's nothing we could do. We're.
doing everything we can to try to .speed it along, to hurry the process.
MRS. SKABRY: Thanks.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Anyone else like to address the Board? (No response.)
Okay, at this time then I'd like to have a resolution to recess this meeting for the
time it takes us to discuss one resolution .(No. 5), and then I think we'll close it
and then meet with the Trustees. Do you mind waiting a few minutes?
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE:. Let's do the Trustees now.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Want -to do it now? . Okay.
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: We're all going to be here rio matter which one we
do fi rst.

scheduled. opening date on. September-.l6th. He has discussed this proposal-,with
the Trustees, DEC; Baymerr, Scott Siddal of. the Stony Brook Marine Science Center
purveyors. and other concerned individuals,' who agree that due to the algae bloom
the scallop crop is. undersized and a. later- opening date during the fall would allow
for considerable growth. .,The Trustees were in complete agreement, stating they
would like to call a special meeting this evening to order the creeks closed so notice
may 'be placed in the newspapers cancelling the September 16th non-commercial opening
date.
