The Supervisor read a letter on behalf of the Village of Board of the Village of Greenport, requesting that the proposed Brooklyn to Riverhead Parkway be extended east- erly to Orient Point. It was pointed out that on May 27, 1952, :Supervisor Norman E. Klipphad requested such action and had been advised at that time that his request would be considered. Following is a copy of the letter written by Oscar Goldin. Gentlemen, I_ appear before you today with the full approval of the Greenport Village Board who have read this statement and fully approve it. Regarding the new expressway on L. I. I am aware of your Supervisor ' s efforts in this situation but what he has done is not enough. Many of us are of the opinion ? that the people of this end of the Island are entitled to more and better roads and I am here to ask that you take steps to �etition the authorities in charge and ask that they make plans to incorporate an extension of this new parkway to continue to Orient Point and the State Park. A furer reason for this plan is the announcement in Saturdays paper that the new plans for building on Plum Island have been released. The Village Board adopted a resolution adking for this road and a copy was sent to the L. I. Park Commission who acknowledged the document but did not promise any assistance. Two efforts have been. made to contact Gov. Dewey and to date he or his office have not responded. 1 1 . The other problem is the request from the -.Green- port Village Board and them from the Suffolk County Village Officials Assoc. that the Board of Supervisors take steps to have the entire county re-evaluated by a firm of pro- fessional appraisers who &o .this work scientifically and then have the local appraisers carry on. The very fact that everyone in office admits that many inequalities exist is ,and should be reason enough for this work to be done without delay. Thru the papers and ,then from your Supervisor I found out the reason that this ,plan .was s shelved is that a building program is on the way. What has one thing to do with the other. Having appeared be- fore you some time ago about a similar problem I believe that you are will aware of the problem I am presenting and I would ask that some member of kour Board present a motion directing your Supervisor to do likewise at _the next meet- ing of the Suffolk County Board of Supervisors so that a vote will have to be taken and .that we might all know whether the Board will or will not undertake this prop- osition. Oscar Goldin Moved by) Justice Albertsoh; seconded by Justice Clark: RESOLVED: That .Supervisor Norman E . Klipp be and he hereby is authorized to take the matter up with Senator Horton, Assemblyman Lupton, and the State Department of Public Works.
