14. Letters from the Long Island Rail Road, John D. Woodward,
Chief Engineer, aid Francis S. Gabreski, President. Before Super-
visor.•.n.Martocchia passed away he met with Mr. �.qbodward and Highway
Superintendent Dean relative to certain railroad properties and
projects in Southold .Town. At one bf the meetings he was told the
Budce•t fo:r: the: railroad'.is,_being,:prepared;.and :.per haps the North ;
;Fork was not being considered properly in the budget and unless the
North Fork supervisors wrote strong letters to the railroad urging
them- not only to maintain the railroad but to upgrade it, it was
quite possible - the railroad would be allowed to deteriorate and I
possibly eventually phased out. Mr. Martocchia did write, Riverhead
Supervisor Allen Smith and Shelter Island Supervisor Bliss also wrote
to the railroad and representatives on the State and County levels
letting them know that we felt the railroad, especially in view of
the energy crisis is an important part of the town, and would probably
be more important it it were properly cared for. Through this effort
the Town has received approval from the railroad on fixing up a
cert ain number of railroad crossings, also the Town has agreed
verbally, and we are waiting for a confirming letter from the
railroad .that we will take care of certain railroad properties
in the Town and we will be reimbursed from the railroad on that.---
Highway Superintendent Dean stated that he met with Mr. Woodward
and Supervisor Martocchia at the Southold railroad station. The
railroad has given Mr. Dean permission to purchase all the materials,
blacktop to rebuild• the station, platform and bulkhead. This will
cost between $1, 000 and $1, 500 and the railroad will pay for it.
They also gave the Town priorities on crossings. They asked for
3 and the Town supplied 8 seperate crossings. Next year they will
probably do Depot Lane, Alvahs Lane, Youngs Avenue and Love Lane.
The Town' s biggest gripe was that the south side got all the money
last year. We want our share of the money. The railroad has agreed
to help try to upgrade the railroad system in Southold Town.
15. Receipt of a copy of a letter sent to Huntington Town
Supervisor Butterfield by Allen Smith, Supervisor of Riverhead Town
relative to a proposed meeting in Westhampton with the Lieutenant
Governor .on July 26th to protest the issue of the potential decrease
in State aid to local municipalties. The Supervisor or Acting
Supervisor of this Town will be at that meeting.
16. Letter from Hudson Hagglund, Mattituck representing hhe
Southold Chess Club asking that consideration be given to scheduling

21. Request from the Board of Fire Commissioners of the
Mattituck Fire District for permission to install a base station
radio antenna at the Southold Town Police headquarters in
conjunction with a new alarm system being installed at their head-
quarters in the near future. ---This is not a new service, but an
upgrading of an existing service. ---This will be reviewed with the
Police Department, and if the Police Department has no objections
it is expected the Board will go along with the request.
.'22. Letter from Virginia Shecter thanking Deputy Supervisor
for making the necessary arrangements for a "mini clam transplant"
at Mill Creek on Saturday, June 30. A group of concerned Mill
Creek residents worked three hours on that day relocating polluted
clams from the west end of Long Creek into the -clean public waters
of Mill Creek. This project was arranged through the efforts of
the residents, James Homan, and the DEC under the watchful eye of
Bay Constable William Januick.
23. Letter from the North Fork Volunteer `Fireman' s Association
expressing their dissatisfaction with the way the towns of Riverhead

on June 3, 1979.. They ask that should this Town know of any Demonstra-
tions planned in the future they let the fire departments know so
they can prepare in advance.
24. Request from Maria Heaney, Transportation. Chairwoman,
Boy Scout Troop. 15, Greeriport for permission to use the senior
citizen can for a trip to Upstate New York on August. 4 and 5 and
August 11 and 12. --In the past the Boy Scouts have been allowed the
use. of the van for transportation within the Co_u_ n.ty._*- .However, in
, view of the fact the Mown only has one van now, and there were two
before, and in view of the gas crisis and the distance these people
wish to use the van this request must be denied. Justice -Suter
stated that since the Highway. Department has been cut 20% in their
gas allocations and since this van is the only one left in -the Town
and if anything happens to it then the Nutrition Program and Senior
Citizen Transportation group would be out of business, he does not
feel the van should be allowed out of the county at .this time. ---
Mr. Walter Kohnle asked why the Boy Scouts couldn' 't be given money
out of the Senior Citizen' s budget.---It was explained that alloca-
tions in the budget were made for youth organizations and functions
and this money has been. expended. The senior citizens also have
an allocation in the budget and have hot expended all of their funds.

This resolution was declared duly adopted.
Mrs. Gladys Csajko complimented the Town Board on their appointment
of William Weinheimer to the Board of Assessment Review.
Mr. Donald Stanton, resident of Leeton Drive, Southold spoke to
the Board relative to the Goldsmith Inlet Jetty. He stated that
in 1911 the Goldsmith Inlet Jetty was designed and constructed.
Since that time there is a record of damage east of the jetty
because the drift .of sand on the north shore in that region is
from west to east. The substantial damage can be documented if
required. He asked the'..-.Board to request, now, in 1979, that the
Goldsmith Inlet Jetty be removed. The purpose for which it was
constructed no longer exists, as there was a planned marina in that
area and the plans have since been abandoned. There was also
plans for the construction of additional jetties east of Goldsmiths
in recognition of the fact that additional shoreline stabilization
was required. Those jetties were never constructed. Consequently
Mr. Stanton has suffered substantial damage. He is about 1� mile
east of the Inelt, and a number of his neighbors b oth. 'east and west
of the jetty have suffered damages as late as this year. In addition
to that there is also public property being damaged. The Suffolk
County Peconic Dunes Camp is suffering serious erosion, Kenney's
Beach is suffering serious erosion, and the problem can be expected
to continue until some action is taken and it the Town of Southold
who are the owners of the title to the Goldsmith Inlet Jetty and
would hAv. e to initiate the action to have it removed. Mr. Stanton
stated it has been established to his own siatisfaction' through marine
contractors that the jetty could be removed at no' cost to the taxpayers
because the cost of the stone itself is of sufficient value that there
would be no additional cost for the removal itself-------Deputy Supervisor
Homan asked Mr. Stanton if he knew of his own knowledge of any
litigation pending in the matter?--Mr. Stanton said he was not aware
of any directly concerning the Goldsmith Inlet Jetty. He knows that
there is a Notice of Claim on file by Judge Lockman- ----Town Attorney
Tasker stated that there is a Notice of, Claim and the insurance carrier
is investigating it, but he is not aware of any litigation as yet.---
Mr. Stanton s'tated that they have documented through surveys and a
check of the records that have been kept by the. Corps of Engineers
in .the last 75 years. They checked the recent rates of erosion
against those historical rates and the current rate of erosion east
of the jetty are five to ten times that rate prior to construction. ---
Deputy Supervisor Homan said he would rather not get into a long
discussion on the jetty at this time. He had a call today from the
New York State Attorney General' s Office relative to Goldsmith Inlet
and he presumes it concerns the jetty. He has given dates for a future
meeting. There is no further information on the matter than that. He
has asked the Attorney General ' s office to follow up confirming. the
date and if possible the subject matter so it can be researched and
the town attorney be aware of what the Attorney General wishes to
meet on in relation to Goldsmith Inlet. --Mr. Samuel Markel, Southold,
stated that prior to Supervisor Martocchia' s untimely passing he
personally went to see Mr. Markel concerning the jetty stating that
not only was the jetty put in by the County, approved by the Corps of
Engineers at Southold Town' s request, but the son of a very prominent
politician got the job to do it and he told Mr. Markel that the
Attorney General' s Office was going to investigate it. ---Deputy
Supervisor Homan stated that Mr. Markel appears to know a lot more
about it than him. Unfortunately there is not a member on the Board
that was sitting on.--,the Town Board when the jetty was constructed.---
Justice Suter stated that he wasn' t on the Board but-he is aware of
the plan for the three additional jetties to the east, but after they
put the first one in they never followed through with the other three
so the plan was one-four completed. He feels they should get the
whole plan back and see what they can do. In Sunday' s paper they
covered the whole north shore from Throgs Neck right out. to Orient
Point and every area has the same problem just more or less depending
on the geography of the area.---Mr. Markel spoke about the boat ramp
at Kenney' s Beach- and it is of no use right now, If the side of
that was filled in with rock it would start to help again, because
when that boat ramp went it really caused erosion all along that
side and ripped out a whole sea wall from .'Lockman down to his house.
310 `' . L ,i Q. 1979 .
That . proposal would not cost very much at all.---Mr. Stanton stated
he has used the boat ramp at Town Beach which is dirt and sand. The
ramp at Kenney' s Beach is unusable. The nearest ramp west of us is
in Mattituck and is open only to residents of Mattituck. He feels
it is a poor situation that the residents can' t launch a boat into
Long Island Sound ,in the Town of Southold. He feels the one remedy
we have is to correct the situation at Kenney' s Beach. ----Justice
Suter stated there were plans for two, one in Mattituck at the Inlet
at the Breakwater, but Captain Kidd' s Civic Association opposed that.
Then there was another one proposed by the County at Clark' s Beach
and the neighbors in the neighborhood opposed that. If the Town
could get County Money and use it at Kenney' s Beach, it would be worth
ekploring.----Mr. Emil Pupecki, Peconic stated he has lived in this
are for the last 55 years and he is very familiar with the beach
as far as erosion is concerned and all he wanted to say is that
any of these people that built their homes right on the beach have
done nothing but invited trouble for themselves.
