This resolution was .declared duly adopted.
Supervisor Martocchia:
1. Receipt of a letter from Town Attorney Tasker indicating
that the Department of Agriculture and Markets has approved the dog
contract between the Village of Greenport and Town of Southold. and
the Town Dog Wardens can commence enforcement in the Village of
Greenport on October 1, 1977 .
2. At last weeks Board meeting the Town Clerk presented the
Supervisor ' s . tentative budget to. the Town Board for review. The
tentative budget indicated the tax increase would be about ll�.
After review of the budget and reduction in appropriations, such
as lighting fund reduction by $10, 000 , contingent account from
$40, 000 to $30, 000, increased unexpended balances to being the
tax increase down to 1.84 . Last years rate was 3 . 385 and this
years proposed rate will be 3.403, a difference of 1. 84 . If the
town did not have revenue sharing funds to work with, these reductions
would not have been accomplished. It is impossible to hold down the
i
324 �c7: is i °sit,;..:
employee contracts, the PBA is a two year which specifies the 1978
salaries , the CSEA has a two year contract which specifies the 1978
salaries. The appointed and elected officials did not receive raises
last year, therefore raises have been included for 1978 amounting to
12 to 15/0 over a period of what would amount to a three year period.
Another factor causing the slight tax increase is the raise in
insurance premiums. One policy along- tripled in premium. Fuel oil
and gasoline for all town equipment has risen, electricity rates
have increased. Copies of the budget will be made available for
the public to take home by the end of this week. The budget hearing
will be November 10th and its adoption will be some time after that
date.---Mr. William Pell III asked how much new assessment and re-
assessment since last year is the budget based on?---Supervisor
Martocchia stated approximately $1, 700, 000. and that is a very
tentative figure as stated by the Assessor 's Office. ---Mr. Pell
stated in the Building Inspector ' s report of $600 000 for September,
and one month last year of $900, 000 , if this were averaged out, the
assessment raise should be over $9, 000.---Justice Demarest stated
that is 100/ value, and not assessing value, but appraisal value.
The Town ' s equalization -rate is around 12/ and if you take the
appraisal value shown in the reports of the Building Inspector and
take 12% of that and there was $10 000, 000 assessed valuation you
would only pick up $1, 200, 000 in actual assessment. ---Supervisor
Martocchia discussed the various exemptions and losses of assessment
by fire and purchase of property by exempt organizations. ---Mr. Pell
asked how much land went off the tax rolls in 1976?---Supervisor
Martocchia said that figure would have to be gotten from the Board
of Assessors. ---Mrs. Gladys esajko questioned the statement relative
to no raises for town officials for three years .---Supervisor Martocchia
stated there were no raises last year for appointed and elected
officials. The Board makes a practice of asking for a raise on an
election year, therefore there was no raise last year, there will be
none in the 1979 budget, so the raise for' the 1979 budget covers a
period of three years.---Mrs. Charles Hickey asked how the Board
bases their figures?---Superviso'r Martocchia stated it is worked out
so public officials receive approximately the same percentage as the
contract employees. Nine years ago when he became Supervisor the
salary was $18, 000.---Mr. Pell asked how Southold Town compares with
the other towns?---Supervisor Martocchia stated" that on the east end
perhaps he is the highest or one of the highest. He only has one
job, that of Supervisor. In other town's the Supervisor has other
jobs as well' as that of Supervisor. The 'Riverhead supervisor is also
an attorney, the Easthampton supervisor gave up the job as he cannot
make enough at it, on Shelter Island the supervisor also .runs a store. --
Mr. Pell asked, regardless of how many. other jobs a supervisor has,
isn ' t the responsibility the same for each supervisor?---Supervisor
Martocchia stated many other towns have a deputy supervisor which
they utilize heavily, and he has a staff.. Presently the Deputy for
Southold Town has been nonsalaried until Supervisor Martocchia became
ill and it was only just to compensate him for working full time ,as
Deputy Supervisor. Supervisor Martocchia stated he puts in 24 hours
as Supervisor. After he leaves the office he tours the town and keeps
an eye on all areas possible. He attends sometimes two and three civic
association functions and meetings a day, including weekends.
On motion of Councilman Rich, seconded by Justice Demarest, it was
RESOLVED that a recess be called, and meeting be reconvened following
a public hearing at 3 :30 P.M. relative to an application for a wetland
permit.
Vote of the BoardE Ayes : Supervisor Martocchia, Councilman
Rich, Justice Suter, Justice Demarest Justice Doyen.
This resolution was declared duly adopted.
(It was discovered the wetland hearing is scheduled for October 25th
rather than October llth. )

Supervisor Martocchia:
3 . Letter from the Department .of Labor, State of New York
stating that as of January 1, 1978 all units of local government
will be covered under the New York State Unemployment Insurance Law.
They ask to be informed by January :lst whether the_ Town of Southold
wishes to elect the benefit reimbursement or. the contribution method
of financing their participation in the program.---Town Attorney Ta:sker
explained that under the unemployment. a certain percentage. :of the . .
payroll is paid as - an unemployment tax. Municipalities have an option.
They can either do it, that way, or they can actually pay the amount of
unemployment funds paid out to unemployed people. The Town of Southold
is electing to take the latter course, to pay the unemployed person
the amount the agency pays unemployed persons rather than a percentage
of tax on the payroll. ---The question was asked how many unemployed the
town would have?---Supervisor Martocchia stated that what could cause
the most in payments would be school crossing guards. . It is necessary
to work a certain amount of weeks before.- collecting unemployment, and
school crossing guards come under the category.
On motion of Justice Demarest, seconded by Councilman Rich_, it was
RESOLVED that the New York State Department of Labor be notified that
the Town of Southold elects to follow the Benefit Reimbursement Option
method for financing, unemploymnet insurance. ,
Vote of the Town Board: Ayes : Supervisor Martocchia , Councilman
Rich, Justice Suter, Justice Demarest, Justice Doyen.

9. Considerable correspondence has been received relative
to Goldsmith's " jetty, as well as telephone calls from. Joyce
Burland, County Legislator, who is . unable . to devote time at the
present toward solving the problems at Goldsmith's inlet. She
will have more time after the 15th of November to study the problem.
Mrs. Burland has been cooperative in the past and they are sure she
will be cooperative again.
10. An application has . been received for Fire Inspector; however
at the present time the Town does not have a Fire Prevention Code.
. 341
11. More correspondence has- been"rieceived relative to the
cut-back by the State of New- York on snow removal on Route 25. The
Town has exhausted most of their contaats , including the County, who
will not enter into a contract with the State of New York, as Suffolk
County must go into loans to pay contracts to remove snow. The only
contract the State of New York signed is with Shelter Island Highway
Department. The Town is still trying to get snow fencing and to keep
the local contractors, but the State has just about made up their mind
to buy new equipment and store two pieces of equipment in Greenport
and one in Riverhead.. This is going to be a problem as the only service
the State has in in Riverhead, and there is no backup equipment. The
Yown will try to keep up with what the State can't handle, but there
are many Town roads to look after. A letter has been received from
the Orient Fire Department written to Givenor Carey asking that the
problem be rectified.
12. Notification has been received that in .the matter of Patrolman
Crimi vs:. the Town of, Southold, the attorney for -.Patrolman Crimi has
withdrawn the appeal.
Mr. Hartofelis asked the Board about the application he submitted
at the last meeting for an addition to his snack bar at his tourist
camp in East Marion, requesting a. determination. ---.Supervisor
Martocchia ,stated it was submitted to the Building Department for
review as far as density is concerned. Mr. Terry's report says
that Mr. Hartofelis would not be increasing the density because
he is requesting a slab with a canopy roof and he has no disagreement -
with the application. It is now up to. the Town Board. The Board
has not discussed it as yet and will do so after this .meeting.
Mr. Weink4,eimer asked to What extent the .new HUD resolution going to
change the requirement ,of low cost housing?-.--Supervisor -Martocchia
stated that originally HUD wanted to by-pass local zoning. Hud has
indicated they have taken. out that stipulation.---Town Attorney Tasker
stated his concern -is that it requires . unanimous agreement of all members
of the consorti:um. - The basic objection thatwas raised, by.most of the
municipalities was the. form of the resolution that they required all
municipalities 'to adopt, which really said that we agree to..change our
zoning ordinance without any regard - to our master plan in order to
permit low cost housing, :and we . are bound by State Law which requires
us to 'rezone according to comprehensive zone and the affects it has ,
on the community, and we can' t agree to give them a blank check to
permit any type of use be located any where in the town,. and .that is
the objection .of all the other towns. Now, they have removed the .
reference to toning ordinances. The- question is whether the remaining
towns and villgges are agreeable to go along with the new form of
resolution that has: been submitted and they do require all of the
municipalities to agree.
Mr. William Pell asked Mr. Tasker where he can get a ,copy of the master
plan?--- Mr. Tasker stated we already have a master plan. He is not
going to find.. the master plan in.
one little document. The masterplan
consists of all 'of the. studies, .surveys reports submitted by Raymond
& May, consisting of four volumes , study, and report of Malcolm Pirnie,
two studies and report of Cornell, the study. and 'report by Mr: Sullivan
on agriculture, the zoning ordinance of the town and the zoning map of
the town. All of these together constitute the master plan. All of
are filed here 'in the .Town Clerk ' s office. The Raymond & May. master
plan is filed in all of the local libraries, the Malcolm Piriiie study
is also filed in the local libraries. The zoning map is filed here
and the zoning code is in the code book. All of .these comprise the
master plan or comprehensive plan or comprehensive .plan for future
development or development plan: ---Mrs. Csajko stated some of the
things in 'the matter Mr. Tasker referred . to were highly objectionable.
---Mr. Tasker' stated ' that when you hire a planning consultant to do
the study hei_s hired to make recommendations, we are not required to"
accept every single recommendation he makes. Aeform • of zoning-. code was
proposed by' Raymond & May and was' rejected out of -hand and the town
drafted their own. The proposed zoning map proposed by Raymond & May was
34 yes; k 1. 9�7
not accepted totally,- _changes -were .made'. ---Mrs . Csajko asked Mrs.
Brush prior to this-,meeting if ..she could find the original zoning
map that was .accepted by the Planning Board by resolution, and on
that map there is .a .big industrial area near where she lives; on
subsequent .ma-ps .that- disappeared. Mrs . Brush showed here that as the
original map that was- accepted. ---Mr. Tasker stated that to begin with.
the Planning Board does not accept or approve the map, the Town Board
does. . Here again, ,the Planning Board could submit 5..0 maps -.that in
the course of .the evolution of the plan the maps were constantly
being .changed, ,ultimately the map got to ,the point that was acceptable
to the -Town Board and that is the map that was accepted in 1971 by _
the Southold. Town Board.--Mrs.: Csajko stated- Mrs. Neville could
only find an adoption by the Planning Board. ---Mr. Tasker stated
they could have a map before .them and .decide to approve it and the
Town Board disapprove it. The adoption of the map by the Town Board
is right in the zoning code on the first page. The zoning map is
actually signed by members of the Town -Board. ---Mrs . Csajko stated
she was trying to determine whether the original map was still in \.
tact and available to look at.---Town Attorney Tasker stated it is ,
and each time a change of zone is made the map is updated, but the
original .map signed by the Town Board members is retained .in its
original state in the Town Clerk 's Office. ---Mr. Tasker stated that
John Wickham brought to his office a couple of weeks ago a .compilation '
of everything that was encompassed in the process of preparing and'
putting into effect the master plan studies. It is believed the
Board plans to ' have that printed and circulated so you can read .a
summary of what took- place and what the. various studies were and
what they showed.---Mrs . Csajko stated that they are still not saying
what parts of the reports they are accepting and rejecting.---Mr.
Tasker stated they don' t really accept or reject a study You have
a study made fdr ,:,the - purpose -of steering you in the right direction
in the future development of the town. It is called a master plan
or development- plan. All -of these things combined could be called
the master plan study. You do not have to actually implement. You
can implement parts ofit and refuse to implement other parts of it.
---
Mrs. Csajko. ask.ed who and how do' you dea,ide which parts you are going
to impelmfflnt?---Mr. Tasker stated that if you looked at' th-e stu-d,ies
and they said we think the whole of Orient should be two acre zoning
and when the. map is finally adopted is is one acre; I think you could
conclude Ith.e-Y,�4J-di-molt accept the, master plan as suggested at two. acre :
zoning, because they zoned it ane acre. . So you could follow the
studies through and compare the -.ultimate result in determining whether.
they particularly accepted this,,:recommendation or that they didn ' t.
the Basic change the Town did nbt! accept was the proposed ordinance
that was submitted. The entire ordinance that was in existence before
1971 was redrafted. Sor-ae of the Raymond & May suggestions were embodied
and others were rejected. ---Supervisor Martocchia stated that the study
and summary being prepared by John Wickham will be examined by the
Town Attorney and Town Board and other interested parties and when
the Board feels it is ready it will be printed for distribution.---
Mr. Walter Kohnle asked whether the master plan does not ever become
actually a master plan until the Town Board adopts it/---Town Attorney
Tasker stated that is right. The law permits the Planning Board to
conduct studies provided they receive the funds from the Town Board,
and one of the studies the .Planning Board conducts is future develop-
ment plans or master plans and that is what our Planning Board did
To assist them they retained planning experts; water experts.. When
the plan is completed they submit it to the Town Board for implementation.
There is nothing in the statute that says you adopt a master plan. The
$lanning Board may prepare a master plan, but they do not adopt it.
They submit it to the Town Board for their consideration. He thinks
that by the- time the final submission to- the Town Board by the Planning
Board took place they pretty well impelmanted everything that they
ultimately suggested. ---Mr. William Pell asked if what Mr. Tasker. is
saying is, that we never will have a fixed master plan because every
time the Board adopts a resolution for another amnendment:,c what they
have already voted on is amended. ---Mr;! Tasker said not necessarily,

the Town already does have what he refers to as thick books, there
are three or four of them. The recommendations of the planners is
a broad bursh recommendation. It may say, for irs tance, that they
recommend low density development along the north shore of our town-
ship and a higher density along the south shore, and business uses
be confined to the hamlets. Take Schriever for ,example - the planners
said we recommend business and industry be confined to the hamlets,
raises a question in his application, does this conform to what they
suggested, where is the boundary of the halmet? or is the proposed
property separated from the hamlet, so they don ' t necessarily, every
time you make a change, conflict with the recommendations , most of the
time you are in conformity with them. They don' t go out and look. at
every single peice' of 'property and suggest how it should be used, they
take areas•: -=-Mr. Pell brought up the Norris property on the opposite
end of town.---Mr. Tasker stated the master planners recommended and
the courts have determined that the change in the Norris property was
in conformity with what the master -plan suggested.---Mr. Pell asked
what Master Plan?---The Board stated they had just explained that.---
Justice Suter stated that just as in the Norris case, the people who
feel the master plan has not been followed have a right to appeal to
the County Court. The judge will review it to see if the Town Board
stayed within the guidelines, if the judge ways you went way out, he
can reverse that decision. If you are not satisified with the judges
decision, you can do as they did in the Norris case, go to the Appellate
Division ans ask them to review that judge 's decision, and the Appellate
Division said unanimously, yes, they did follow the plan, they did
conform to all the rules and regulations and upheld us five to nothing.
If you are not satisfied with that decision, you go to the Court of
Appeals, the highest court in the S'tate. of New York, 'and they will
review it to see that what was done was done properly, and legally.
Therefore, the Town Board is not final there are three courts to
sit over us to determine we acted properly.
Mr. Hartofelis asked when he could expect a dicision from the Town
Board on his snack bar?---Supervisor Martocchia stated ha' will know
at the next- b oard meeting.
