26. RESOLUTION AND DETERMINATION. - EAST .END ASSOC IJ,TES` ANNEXATION PETITION.
(a) The following resolution was offered y CoCificilman Scriond6bare
seconded by Councilman Stoutenburgh
WHEREAS, East End Associates has heretofore presented a petition to this
board requesting that the territory described in said petition be annexed to
the Village of Greenport, and
WHEREAS, a public hearing with respect to said petition was duly held
jointly with the Board of Trustees of the Village of Greenport on the 6th day
of December, .1984, to hear any testimony and receive evidence and information
,
which may be presented concerning the said petition and the question of
whether the proposed annexation is or is not in the overall public interest,
and
WHEREAS, this Board was determined to be lead agency pursuant to the
provisions of Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law by resolution
duly adopted on the 18th day of December, 1984, and
WHEREAS, by resolution duly adopted on the 8th ,day of January, 1985,
this Board determined that the annexation requested in said petition was likely
to have a significant adverse affect upon the environment, and that the
petitioner shall prepare a draft environmental impact statement, and
JULY 30, 1985 417
WHEREAS, upon the comp'Ieton'; `of "such "draft environmental .- impact
statement and the filing and acceptance thereof, this Board held a public
hearing thereon, pursuant to due notice, on the 16th day of May, 1985, and
WHEREAS, this Board thereafter by resolution adopted on the -4th day of
June, 1985, determined , that .the 'proposed annexation was likely to have a
significant adverse affect upon the environment and requested that the
petitioner prepare and file a final environmental impact statement, and
WHEREAS, upon the completion, filing and acceptance or the final
environmental impact statement this Board duly adopted a resolution on the
16th• day of July- . 1985', determining that the proposed annexation was not
likely to have a significant affect upon the environment for the reasons set
forth therein.*
NOW, THEREFORE, this board does hereby make the following findings
and determinations with respect to compliance of the said petition with the
provisions of Article- 17 of the General Municipal Law and with respect to the
affect of such proposed annexation on the.overall public interest, to wit:
I. That the said petition substantially complies in form with the
provisions of Article 17 of the General Municipal Law..
I I ' ' That the proposed annexation is not in the overall public interest 0)
. _ s
of the territory proposed to be annexed, or .(2) on the remaining area of the
Town of Southold- in which such territory is situated, for the following
reasons, to wit:
(a) Zoning and Planning. As indicated on the map annexed to said
petition, the area of the .territory sought to be annexed comprises 48.7186
acres of vacant land. The land on the south and west of the territory in
question is within the incorporated Village of Greenport. and owned by the -
Village of Greenport and is 'uninhabited land utilized for park and watershed
purposes by the Village. The land to the east and north (across North Road,
County Route 48)' is ' outside the incorporated limits of the Village of
Greenport and is used, occupied and zoned for one family- dwelling purposes.
The territory sought to be annexed and the land lying to the north and east
thereof is 'within the present "A" Residential and Agricultural District under
the Town of Southold Building Zone Ordinance which provides for a minimum
size lots of 80,00.0. square. feet. The zoning ordinance of ..the Village of
Greenport adopted in October, 1971, provides that areas annexed to the Village
shall be in the R-1 zoning district which requires a minimum lot size of 10,000
square feet without regard to whether public sewer or water is provided.
Therefore, if the territory in question were annexed to the Village of
Greenport; the zoning requirements of the Village of Greenport would permit
418 JULY 30,' 1985
eight times the number of dwellings to be built than is allowed by the Town's
current zoning code.
The petitioner, at the public hearing, held pursuant to Article 17 of the
General Municipal Law, and the hearing on the draft environmental impact
statement indicated that it was proposed to develop the land in the territory
to be annexed by subdividing a portion thereof into in excess of 70 lots of
10,000 to 15,000 sq. ft. in area for sale . as single family dwelling plots to
provide "affordable homes" for local residents. Petitioner also proposes to
seek a rezoning of the westerly portion of the property to permit-the creation
of eight plots each containing approximately 3 acres, to be sold for the
establishment of commercial uses thereon. At 'the present time, the Village of
Greenport has no laws or regulations providing for the approval of plats, nor
any standards and specifications regulating' the construction of streets and
other required facilities and improvements to be constructed therein, as
authorized by Article-7 of the Village Law.-
The petitioner, at the hearing held on the annexation petition, indicated
that if the annexation isapproved, he desires that Town Planning Board have
jurisdiction of the development of. the project rather than the Village Planning
Board, since the Town Planning Board has in effect rules and regulations
governing the subdivision of land and standards for the construction of the
required facilities, as well .as many years of experience in such matters,
whereas the Village of Greenport. has no such rules, regulations or
experience. There. appears to be no objection to such procedure voiced by the.
Trustees of the Village of Greenport. In furtherance of such desire, the
petitioner, during the pendency of this 'proceeding, has filed plans and maps
with the Town Planning Board for -the development of the subject property
and attended several meetings of said Board with respect thereto. With
respect to .the. Planning Board -exercising . jurisdiction with respect to plat
approval and the supervision of the construction and development of the
subject property, if annexed to the. Village of Greenport; the simple answer
is that neither the Town or any of its boards, agencies, officials or.
employees have any jurisdiction, powers or authority in such matters with
respect to land located outside the territorial' boundaries of the Town.
As previously indicated, the petitioner proposes to seek the rezoning of
a suljstantial portion of the subject property to commercial' uses. The area to
be rezoned is located along the westerly portion of the property abutting
Moores Lane (a Village Street) . On the west side of Moores Lane is
approximately 250 acres of land owned by the . Village of Greenport and
dedicated for watershed and park purposes. Under the Town zoning map and
JULY 30, 1985 4. 419
zoning- code, all other surrounding''A'and` is.:zoned for single family residential
use. To create a commercial* use zone district as proposed by petitioner
would, in this Board's opinion, constitute spot zoning, and further would be
in conflict with the Town's .Comprehensive Plan for the future development of
the Town. It is also this Board's .opinion that the establishment of such a
y
commercial' zone in*. close proximity to the planned development of the
remainder of the subject property for single family residential' uses would not
be in the overallpublic interest of. the homeowners purchasing such
residential' sites.
• (b) Real Property Taxes. The subject property is presently
assessed on the current tax rolls of the Town of Southold at an assessed
valuation of $14,400.00. The current taxes for Town, County, School and
Special -District purposes is $5,103. 81, of which the tax for general town
purposes is $693.24. .
The--current Town Tax rates (1984-85) for. real property outside
and inside the Village of Greenport per ,$1,000. 00 of. assessed value are:
Outside Village $69. 324
Inside Village . 26.765
The current (1985-86) Village of Greenport tax rate per $1,000.00
of assessed value is $148.30.
If annexation is approved, the Town and Village taxes per
$1,000.00 of assessed valuation would be $175. 07.
If annexation is not approved, the Town taxes per $1;000. 00 of
assessed valuation would be .$69.32.
If annexation is approved, real property taxes for Town and Village
purposes per $1,000.00 , of assessed valuation will increase from $69.32 to
$175.32, an increase of 152.540. Such a significant tax increase cannot be
deemed in the overall public interest of the future homeowners purchasing
lots in the territory in question, and would not appear to be consistent with
petitioner's purported purposes of providing "affordable housing".
(c) Water and Sewer. Petitioner asserts that his principal reason
for having the subject premises annexed to the Village of Greenport is to
qualify for hook-up to the municipal water and sewer systems of the Village
of'Greenport.
The Village of Greenport now holds a franchise to supply water service
within its franchise area, which embraces a substantial area in the Town
outside of the Village's incorporated limits. The territory sought to be
annexed is within the Village's franchise area. The Village presently services
more water customers outside the Village than within the Village. As the
420 JULY 30, 1985
holder of such franchise, the Village is obligated to supply water services to
the subject property under the same terms and conditions as it presently does
to the residential communities to the north (Eastern Shores) and to the East
(Fleetfield) of the. subject property, whether or not it is annexed to the
Village.
The petitioner also asserts that if the subject premises is not annexed,
4
he will be required by the Village to pay it a water and sewer hook-up .
charge of $4,500.00 to $5,000. 00 per lot. Presumably, if annexation is -
approved, such charge will be waived. No explanation is given for such .
charge. It has not been extracted in other similar instances (i.e. San Simeon
Retirement Community) . The only conclusion that can be drawn is that the
Village seeks to increase its tax base by withholding its water and sewer
services, unless annexation is approved.
There appears to be no rational reason why a hook-up charge is
demanded by the Village for sewer and water extensions outside the Village,
and no such charge made for such extensions within the Village, unless it is
assumed that such charges within' the Village are defrayed by taxes assessed .
against all -the taxable real property within the Village. If such is the policy
of the Village, then to approve the annexation of the subject territory would
not be in*the overall public'interest of the present taxpayers of the Village of .
Greenport.
For - the reasons hereinbefore. set forth, this ' Board . does hereby
DETERMINE that .it • is ' not .in',.the overall public- interest to approve such-
proposed annexation of the territory set forth in the petition of East End
Associates.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: This 'is *a Town Board meeting. We're. voting on a
resolution. The only people who will 'comment on the proposed resolution are
Town Board members. . Out of courtesy to everyone here, and [ appreciate
everybody coming out here today to let us know your.feelings and all. We will
open it up for a discussion 'after. I remind you again' that it will be cut off at
4:00 o'clock because of the special' Town Board meeting that we have to attend.
At this time I'd .like to ask if there's .any Councilman would like to make any
comments?
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: Very simple. It's .probably the most difficult
descision I've had to make on this Town Board' to date. It's .not easy.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Joe?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND : .11m. sorry that,the. vote is going to go the way
understand it's .going to vote. I think we're missing an opportunity to"help
a group of people that has been, largely-,ovei^looked and I think :that by approving
the annexation we could have facilitated a project that would have been valuable
to the overall Town. I'm not going to repeat all the debate and the arguments
that have gone on for the last couple of-weeks. It's .my hope that maybe someone
wi II' change thei r.'vote and at: least pull thi s 'thi ng into a tie.'
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Paul?
COUNCILMAN. STOUTENBURGH: Surely my concern is for the young and old
both that are looking for affordable housing. My entire teaching' career,:. before
I retired, was spent in'the Village of Greenport and so I think F.-know some of.
JULY 30, 1985 42
the people there and I. can respect them and 1 hope I understand some of them,
but I do believe in'the long run.Ahat,the'-people will 'have to carry the burden
of this project. I'm. convinced that it if it was done in' the, Town of Southold
think perhaps, with the taxes being less in'the long 'run, the people that were
in that area would be better off. I. can understand the problem of affordable
housing, I have three children of my own and my Youngs has just, after three
years, found a place and I hope he can keep the payments up on it, so I do
know the problems here. I just feel that in' the long run it's going to be better
that we try to find a different way to utilize that parcel. . That's about all I
have to say, Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you, Paul. Jean?
COUNCILWOMAN. COCHRAN : I think many of you here know me and know my
'� 'r%�n"I= all of my life. 1. have supported
background nd a(id 1 ha.4- .auk:PO.a w-
them from the time they are little.people right up until they are adults. We've
'.discussed this 'annexation for the past two months, with more intensity in the past .
couple of weeks. I .have talked to many persons on my phone, on the street, in
the local stores. I've had people come to my home. I too feel that this is not the
complete answer to affordable housing. My position is firm and .1 think the resolution
states clearly some of the reasons why.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Judge Edwards?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: It looks .like .Joe and I have the same feeling. I have seen the
community. of Fishers Island decrease in'population from, I'll .say, 600 to less than 300
and I think it's .basically because of the housing shortage on Fishers Island and I only
wish it were possible to have a section of property like this available on. the Island to
do the same for affordable housing. I think it's .needed and only ten years down the
road will we see:whether or not we did the proper thing here today. Thank you,
Frank.`
'SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . Thank you. I agree with Jay that this is probably the most
difficult decision. that I've had to make on the Town Board and I would like. to read
a prepared statement so that there is 'no misunderstanding of what I do say. This
will be available for anyone after: From my surveys, my personal knowledge and
experience, and the town -surveys, I ' know that there is a desperate need for afford-
able housing in'Southold Town. In each of-my campaigns I've stressed the fact that
we must find ways to provide such housing -for .the young people and the senior citizens
in our. Town. I've worked for six*years to provide accessory apartments to help our
townspeople to find an affordable place to live. Unfortunately I've had little, if any,
support. . Let me make myself very clear .1 .am in' favor of legally 'guaranteed affordable
housing. However,. the issue we all.corhfront today is 'not an issue of affordable housing.
Mr. Gustayson, executive editor of a local newspaper, has done a great disservice both
to the people of Greenport Village and the entire township' by presenting the story as
one dealing only. with affordable housing. Our. vote today is one concerning annexation,
that is; we are. voti.ng to determine if.`we want to'turn approximately 50 'acres in the
Town of Southold over to the Village of. Greenport. Our vote today is 'to decide about
allowing either approximately. 20 to 24 lots, according to Southold Town .two acre zoning
per building lot, or up to approximately 190 lots, according to Greenport Village 114
acre zoning per building lot, on a parcel of land presently owned by Mr. John Costello. .
f this annexation occurs; .there can be no legal covenants that. wilF assure affordable
housing. Mr.r Gustayson says that L have a dilemma. You are wrong, sir; I have no
dilemma and furthermore I resent your making this.'vote into an affordable housing issue
when it clearly is an issue of annexation which would result in*a zone change. A zone
change holds many implications for all of us. At numerous Town Board meetings; all
members• of the Board. voiced. various concerns about this 'annexation which is an un-
.precedented zone change in the Town. The straw. vote 'resulted in' a majority of the
members of the Town Board in`a bi-partisan grouping, not a political one, two Democrats
and two Republicans,. voting against annexation. . Now I ask the editor, does he have a
dilemma in'trying to remain'objective as a political commentator while his 'natural
instincts and long standing friendship with .my opponent tend to have him: see contro-
versy where there is none? I repeat, I have no dilemma. ; 1 will continue to search
for ways to provide affordable housing for Southold Town residents, but. I will not
vote for a zone change which holds no guarantees and which jeopardizes both the
fiscal stability of the Village of Greenport and the legal position of the Town of
Southold. . Now, let me explain- my specific concerns. . There is a possible loss of
$375,000;. up to one million dollars,' to the. Village of Greenport in the proposed plan
because of the special exemption held by being in the Village. Do the people of the
Village of Greenport want to lose this 'potential money? The residents of this.project
would pay approximately 113 more in taxes by being part of Greenport. Village. How
does this 'h'elp :these people? . The Town of Huntington and the former Town Supervisor
are presently being sued for over a million dollars because of a lack of good faith
effort to provide. affordable housing. Since our last meeting I've been assured that.
the Town of Southold will rec -.ive HUD credit 'whether or not the site in question is
annexted by Greenport Village. This verbal commitment allays my concern about the
Town of Southold being able to continue town funding from HUD. My concern was
not a personal one as indicated in'the newspaper, as usual I was doing my. job as
422 JULY 303, 1985
Supervisor, which is to insure. that the Town's interests are being protected and the
future possibility of a town-wide lawsuit isbeing, avoided. This is the complete
explanation of what is meant by credit: I am very concerned whether or not this
project of Mr. Costello's will truly provide affordable housing. We can have no legal
guarantee that this will happen and if the land is annexed the Village of Greenport
can have no legal guarantee either. There is no legal way that we or the Village can
place any covenants on the project. My past. experience would rely on the history of
Driftwood Cove. This was affordable housing, which now has evolved into coops and
Southold .Town, people are being forced out by escalating costs. I sincerely believe the
best interests of the people of Southold who are seeking affordable housing would be
met by the town buying Mr. Costello's.housing property. This land could be turned
over--could 1 said--to the Greenport Housing Alliance to develop affordable housing on
.114 acre lots. This concept is 'presently being provided for in'the new Master Plan
which we hope to adopt soon. Seed money could be provided by the Town to ,the
Alliance throuah' unique financing and then repaid as the homes are sold. Legal
covenants and restrictions, which are appropriate under these conditions, will protect
both the Town and the homeowners. I first mentioned this concept at the dinner
meeting of the League of Women Voters last spring and was disappointed that the local
Greenport- paper failed to report it: According to appraisals received by the Farmland
Preservation Committee, raw farmland sales presently average $8,000 an acre. At . 114
acre zoning. each lot selling for the advertised price of $2.0,.000. a lot, the developer
would receive $160,000 per two acres, which is, a Southold Town building lot. This
is hardly an affordable housing issue. Finally, construction is now under way at
Lakeside Gardens on North Street in'Greenport. ' Mayor :Hubbard and I, ' under the
auspices of the Greenport Housing Alliance, have fully cooperated in seeing this project
through, complete with all appropriate legal 'guidelines and covenants for the protection
of all involved. Affordable housing can be a reality in'Southold Town without. imposing
a financial: burden upon the taxpayers and by remaining within the. guideline, or credit,
established by HUD. Please understand. this. issue. t have proven that I am in favor
of affordable housing, however, I repeat, a. vote on a zone change is not a. vote on
affordable housing regardless of what political pundits would have you believe. I
intend to see that the. Village of Greenport is 'not pushed into 'fiscal chaos again: .
repead, I have no dilemma. My priorities are clear. As Supervisor I am committed
to protecting the interests of all the people of the Town. I am aware of my legal
and moral responsibilities. . I will 'not be bullied into making politically expedient
decisions, simply because a local newspaper editor has a difficult time assessing his
own responsibilities to the public: 1 will 'continue to provide methods for Southold
Town to have affordable Housing, 'but I will '.not place Greenport Village in a difficult
financial situation in the process, nor will I. vote for a zone change which gives no
one any legal guarantees. I hope, for the Town's .sake, that all reporters can take
as strong an ethical stand as 1 have and ..fairly report all of the facts in any issue
in•the future. Judy, would you like to. vote?
COUNCILMAN SCHONDEBARE: Just so we understand. that a. vote of "yes" means
you're against the annexation and -a. vote of "no" means you're in favor of the
annexation. So we all understand.

SUPERVISOR-MURPHY: At this time,. out of courtesy to everybody who came. here,
is there anyone over here on the left would ;like to address the Town Board?. John?
MR. JOHN A. COSTELLO: . I was the one that had the application for annexation.
1 want to just correct a couple of the .facts that everyone seems to be going on and
maybe they can review them in'their'own conscience and the next project they attack
they, can be more clear on. Everybody seems to be concerned that letting the land
go into Greenport was going to create higher taxes for the individuals buying homes.
As stated in' the resolution, that's .half the story. . The other half the story.is the
kids-or the people who would love to.have affordable housing would have saved on
the cost of water in'the Village of Greenport. They would have saved on sewer and
they would have saved on electricity. A, .considerable amount. That outweighed the
increase in'taxes and if 'you. couldn't calculate it,' it was there in the draft and in
the Final Impact Statement. The number of lots, Frank,'that you: address, you said
there. was approximately 20 to 24 two acre.lots capable on that project--you're right,
22.. 190 houses—impossible. If you 'read. the, Draft Statement .and the Final Impact
Statement, you will find out that the maximum is 170.' You have to put roads in'. You
also brought 'up that you were afraid*of law 'suits. . Good reason. I hope that you
remain afraid of them. Driftwood Cove. You used it 'as an example. I only wish
to hell that Southold Town had purchased Driftwood Cove when they had the opportunity
and done something about affordable Housing. 1f nothing else, 1 hope 1 stimulated a
few of your minds to address this 'problem which is 'dearly needed in Southold, in
Greenport, on the East End and I hope you can do it a lot faster than you've done
this project. There also seems to be a little. vendetta going between Frank Murphy
and the newspaper. It 'was- mentioned about eleven times 1. had down here.-` More
than any other item. 1 don't own the newspaper, .Frank. Buy it. This; .today,
concludes .one more. Everybody's .in' favor of affordable housing. 1'd like to know
what you've done in: the last nine months. 11m.willing to listen to any. other proposals
any time. Through this :l'rh.going to make approximately--by defeat-=more money
going in'another direction 'and I want to spell out for everybody here, including the
newspapers,- so they don't have'to 'question' me too many times, I still'have a bunch
of options open. l could sell that, land in' bulk,' the way. it 'is: 1 could hold on to
that land. I. can divide it up into one acre lots. 1, can go for two acre zoning.
can wait for the new Master Plan to be adopt-d in'Southold and if *it takes as long
as.this project has taken,. I don't know if 'I III ,wait that long. The other option
have, I can wait until. November and see if there aren't more favorable group and
a more-=a'. better group that is more intent upon addressing this housing soon. Maybe
.we'll .have that atmosphere in. November. : Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . Thank 'you,'. John. Is there anyone else on the left here,
on my left, would like. to speak? Merle?
MERLON WIGGIN, Peconic Associates: As most of you know I've been working with
John on this 'as far as the DIS and FEIS and I'm. not speaking for myself today, I'm
speaking for the many number of people that came to-,me and said, we hope that
something can be done about affordable housing and granted, the subject at hand
was not affordable housing, but annexation, which was used as a tool to gain afford
able housing, and the business I'm in A get many people that are trying to find
carpenters; electricians, a few of the marinas, people what work on the roads, people
424 JULY 30, 1985
that do service and they cannot find help. One of the big reasons they have
difficulty is a place for them to live. Now,. it would be a sad day if we .cannot
have people who live.in'Southold Town that do the work for us. They had to
go to Riverhead to live. This 'is.'really not what we want. A good example of
what can get accomplished--could have been accomplished, although this is kind
of water down the river now, is affordable housing can be built for $50,000. A
$20,000 lot makes that a total of $7,0,000.. The FHA is anxious to give $60,000
loans.. Many of the businesses. are willing to loan their employees $5,000 down pay-
ment and with $5,00.0 of sweat equity.they could have built a house on this 'project.
There was reference made to the tax rate. When they did' the DIS we got your
Southold Town Tax Assessor, and A 'quote:-from:-his '.statement: "The tax rate if '
annexed to the Village would be 307:.'908..' ' If'not annexed :354.436."' ;.1t.:seems too
bad that maybe people on the. Board were influenced by .•figures-that were note:.
correct. .. This 'came .from your Town Assessor. I have his '.sighpture right here.
The. nthPr thin I think is ton had that nnP of. the glans for John Costello if it
was annexed to-the Village was to. provide a area for 'public water supply. The
Town, 'as well as the. Village, needs. that 'public 'w'ater supply. The test well of
the best water in'Southold. Town was pump tested 250 'gpm which comes up to
360,.000 gallons a day. If this goes to. the one acre. with in-ground sewage, as
far as' the :Suffolk• County Health Department, this 'is lost forever for Southold Town.
Can your Town afford to do this? There. was a .lot of suspicion about the Village of
Greenport. to do the project. I saw George Hubbard here and certainly I think he's
more able to comment on that and I .do know that the increase in'taxes the Village
Would get over a period of.time would have paid' for the difference of the hook-up
or key money charges and it 'was also if 'they went and sold lots. commercial' they
had an opportunity for some UDAG grants of an estimated total of one million dollars
which now they will'be denied the. access to that. I think it's .too bad and I'm sorry
to see this happen. . Thank
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: : Thank :you: Is there anyone else over on. the. left? .
JAMES l. 'MONSELL, Superintendent of Utilities,: Village of Greenport:_ Honorable
Town Board, I hope you`ve thought..this'out thoroughly. You did'have some inaccurate
figures as far as the up-front money and key money and backbone- money .necessary to
continue. the plan,: both;the.water. plan. and...the, sewer :plan. :: Life has been pretty good
in Greenport, for many years, at least for me and those who live there. . The request
for, water and sewer extensions .are not coming from within the Village that we're not
able or capable. of.handling. The demand--the impact--is coming from the Town and
we have been willing to try to meet those impacts, but most of your requests for
water load demand and the future are coming from the Town and not the Village.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Mayor. Hubbard?
GEORGE HUBBARD, Mayor,. Village of Greenport: . Thank you, Frank. I'm. very sorry
to see the annexation go down and the reasons was 'Planning Board, Greenport wasn't
as good as Southold. I think we're as good as Southold Town's Planning Board. We're
a lot shorter then they are. Some of the other things--I never knew that Frank had
a concern with how much money the. Village of Greenport is earning or what they're
doing on money matters, but it`s .always nice to have somebody looking out for our
money. Annexation isn't that so'awful' important to us because we will 'get our hooli-*up
fees anyway, but I think 'the affordable housing was a big issue. I hope someday that
you might reconsider the whole project over again. John's .had a lot of patience. It
took nine months to get this 'far.. I think-we wasted a lot of Town Board time, John's .
time and 'our time. In your resolution you did' say the only conclusion.that. could be
drawn is that the Village seeks' to increase its tax base. We haven't even said'that
-we-were going to accept the annexation at this point, so how can you say we're looking
for tax base because our Board has not officially gone on record of saying yes or
no to it. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Okay, is there anyone else? Sir?
ROBERT MILLS; . live in Greenport and I'm not interested in any of the figures or
anything' lake that. I just want to know what you as a Town Board is going to do
for the young people in this community? You owe: us an explanation. That's all I'm
going to say.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Is .there anyone here in the middle would like to speak? We've
got fifteen minutes. Sir?
JERRY BONDARCHUCK: I've lived here• all my life and I've been trying to find a
place to live. Right now I live in an apartment and I've lived here about six years
and I'm.already paying. seventeen grand for it. . Now, I would like to see that money
go into some property. As far as I'6 concerned, what the young people should do
is all go on strike for a month and give you a taste of what it's really going to be
like in ten years. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Anyone else here in'the middle? Anyone on the right? Yes,
ma'am?
JULY 30, 1985 425
ELEANOR KOPEK; Greenport: 1 think the -Board made a very wise decision.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Is there, anyone else like to address the Board? Sir,' in
the back?
AUGIE LAHRMAN, Greenport: I'm. a west ender and I been watching this here since
the incept. I believe that the way to make affordable housing is to pay affordable
salaries. . The salaries out here-'are. now. You'd .get all the carpenters you want, all
the plumbers. you want if aH the people involved would only pay a decenUsalary, then
you'd .have your affordable housing.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Anyone else like to address the Town Board? Sir.'.
FATHER WALKER, Rector of the ;Episcopal. Church, Greenport: To most of you I am
a new-comer .here. I've only been out here• five years, but. in that five year perioci
I've. seen a lot of changes, not only in'•my .own parish, but ,indeed in a lot-of -parishes
around here and I hope withi.n� the changes that we gone through one change that we
do need is really a change in' attitude in trying to work 'something out between Southold,
Greenport- and both boards in trying to keep young people here and trying to put some
good plans on the books where people are able to afford houses and to stay within our
Town. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . Thank you. very much.. Is there anyone else would like to
address the Town Board? (No response.) Anyone on the Town Board want to say
anything further?.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: I think we are under an obligation to let some of
these people know what we .are .trying to do. In the past six months our Housing
Committee has been working hard on a plan to alleviate the shortage of housing and.
bring to the people thismuch needed low-cost housing we all want. Many of our
members are .from the Greenport area that are on this Housing Committee. .' They have
just *submitted, today, to. us a plan.that- makes sense and was presented formally to
this Board at :our Work Session this morning. The plan. calls for spreading low cost
housing throughout the Town so that there would be more than one area_ to chose from
and bring in'to it the most important factor of competition and therefore perhaps
lower prices. This suggestion includes slackening up on the zoning densities around
the hamlets, relaxing and streamlining .many of the building ordinances and permit
procedures.. This; along with other; unique methods of finance, could go a long way
towards solving the whole Town's housing..shortage problem. It seems to fit well, this
plan, with our Master Plan that we are now working on. Just today we set up a
meeting with our Town Board, our. Housing Committee and our Planning Board so that
we could bring this plan into operation as soon as possible and it's through this plan
I rest my hopes on affordable housing for you people in the Town. So we are trying
desperately to do something, but we are trying to do it on a Town-wide basis.
know we disappoint many of.you, but that's the way it 'is with being elected and trying
to do your job. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Thank you,..'. Paul.
JUSTICE EDWARDS: Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes, Ray?
JUSTICE EDWARDS: 11m.also going to read an article here• that came in that same
package from the Greenport Housing- Advis6ryt Committee, Herbert Mandel,. Chairman.
This is his letter of July 26th and it's .to.the Southold Town Board from the Housing
Advisory. Committee, and it 'says, "The following action was. taken by the Southold
Housing Advisory Committee on July 25,' 1985: ' Resolved that the Southold Housing
Advisory Committee recommend to -the Southold Town Board that it 'expend every
effort to approve and expedite the proposed annexation by the.Village of Greenport
of the Costello property, provided that unequivocal zoning provisions be incorporated
into the agreement." So this 'is 'from the Housing Authority also. Thank you, Frank.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY; Thank you, Ray. Anyone else on the Town Board like to
comment?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Yes, I would, Frank. I'd like to both thank and apologize'
to John Costello. I think he had .a project which he felt would be of great benefit to
the Town. He went to great effort. He convinced me. I was initially a little skeptical
of the project, but one by one he went through all the hoops that 1 presented before
him at various public meetings. I would also hope that the Board's decision does not
alienate any section of this Town. I think we're going to all have to work together
to .get some affordable housing, especially the Town and the Village of Greenpow.t.
Having sat on both sides of the fence I know that there's sort of natural animosities,
that exist, or mistrust or whatever, but that's an unfortunate situation and I think
that since the Village does control utilities and since the Town does control the body
of the vacant land, there's going to have to be a partnership'of some sort at some
point to create affordable housing, because you have to. have the density that requires
426 JULY 30, 1985
water and sewer. This step. is apparently behind us and 1 would like to go from here
and work out a project where we can provide this kind of housing. There is still
properties available. I'm willing to work with the Supervisor. and the rest of the Town
Board and hopefully the rest of you to create a project like this:
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . Thank you, Joe. Anyone else? Anyone else out here? (No
response.) Let's .open up the Regular Town Board Meeting. We have ten minutes
before the Master Planner is here.

the Town of Southold- is renumbered Article• V and Sections 32-40, 32-41,

respectively-.

Southold- is ' hereby amended by adding a new Article • thereto,' to be Article
IV, to read as follows:
ARTICLE .IV
FLOATING HOMES AND HOUSEBOATS
RPr,flnn .��-Ufl I_ Pniclat.ivP 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 use 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
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
paTlutiodn'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.' 1
The proliferation of Floating Homes and marinas which accomodate them;
will • create problems which include, in' addition to water..pollutioq 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 Is 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
result if the infusion of Houseboats and Floating Homes is not controlled.
Section 32-41. Definitions.

SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Okay, that's the end of our prepared and added-to agenda

Ray? (Nothing, thank you; Frank.) : Jean? .(Nothing, .thank you,. Frank.) Paul?
.(No.) Joe? . .(No.) . Jay3. :. .(No.) . Okay, at this time i.s, there, anyone in'the audience.
Would like to make any comments?'
MR. JOHN SKABRY: Would this be the conclusion of the Town Board meeting?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes.
MR. SKABRY: I'd .like to make a comment. I was wondering if 'after the meeting
that you had with Foster Beach,'-from the State Transportation Department, if you
set a date for the public meeting? Next month will' be the second anniversary of
the grant that was--or the study commission that was made to the engineering firm.
It will be two years .next month and we're looking forward to this public meeting.
Has Foster Grant given you a date when the meeting was going to be?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Foster Beach. We set the meeting. We just received the
letter the' other day that the Town Board has not even gotten. 1. didn't want to
lose it *in'all of these papers and 1 think we're at the position where we now can
set our public`hearing, . but I would like the Town Board to have the letter first.
478 JULY 30.9 1985
MR. SKABRY: A letter from Foster Beach?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Yes. Telling us that he's .satisfied with the study of Phase I
and 11. That's the letter we've been waiting for for quite some time.
MR. SKABRY: Okay. So we don't have a date then?
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . No date has been set, John. It will be set. very shortly.
MR. SKABRY: . Okay. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Anyone else like to address the Board? Jean?
MRS. JEAN TIEDKE: 1 want to ask a 'question. Up at the Town Landfill=-1 . have
to think what to call that--vou used to have to kP.Pn only newspapers separate n. +
for salvage. The other day we were up there. and there were catalogues, there were
magazines, there was all kinds of junk in' the little trucks that hold the newspapers,
so what is the. position? Any kind of paper now?
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: 1 don't,think that we have, any formal law, so. obviously
You don't have' to do that. . People do that. voluntarily, but the people that process
the paper try to get only newspapers.
MRS.. TIEDKE: That's .what Mr. Schelin'.always said.: Is he still the agent? .
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: . No.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: . No, he doesn't have the contract.
MRS. TIEDKE: Who is 'now? .
TOWN CLERK TERRY: B P Wreckers.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: Pfluger.
MRS. TIEDKE: Well, if the company buys it only wants newspapers I think that
the people who work at the dump should be told that.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Well, evidentially they've been taking---
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: They've been accepting it. As long as the percentage
of glossy print and higher quality paper is not too great. so that it screws up their
process, they're okay. So as long as they don't make any problems then, great,
we can pull more paper out of the site.
MRS. TIEDKE: 1 thought your' take from that sale was less if there was any glossy
paper in it.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: We're getting paid' the same amount per ton.
TOWN. CLERK: TERRY: They have to pay us so much, by contract, per quarter, Jean.
He bids on this and he pays us. . We don't have anything to do with what he gets.
. He pays us a. certain amount as a bid'per year.
MRS. TIEDKE: I understood that all newsprint. was worth more than any kind of
mix. i
TOWN. CLERK. TERRY: That's .up to him really.
COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND: He gets paid a flat fee.--I . mean he pays us a flat fee.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: He pays us no matter what he takes. out.
MRS. TIEDKE: I thought that straight newsprint would give you more money than
a mix:
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Same price. Maybe give him more, .but not us.
COUNCILMAN STOUTENBURGH: Because he resells it through some one else.
MRS. TIEDKE: Yes, I understand that. Well, it's not. very well done.
SUPERVISOR MURPHY: Anyone else -like to address the Town Board? (No response.)
If not, I would like to entertain*a motion to adjourn.
