Comments regarding resolution 250
SUPERVISOR RUSSELL: Let me just quickly explain, we got into a dredging situation, snafu a
few years ago because the county had the money but it didn't have the permits. This past year,
we almost had another one because the county had the permits but they didn't have the money.
Each of the five east end towns are looking at dredging, as with the practical reality that the
county is facing financial hardship and whether we are looking at subcontractors, contract
vendees, etc., this committee is, the design of this committee is to keep that communication
open, to keep the dredging active in Southold Town.
