WHEREAS, the Town of Southold has received a notice (Public Notice No.
6501) of a public hearing to be held by the Corps of Engineer-s- on February
13, 1970 in a matter of the application of Levon Properties Corporation
of Jamesport, New- York for Department of. the Army -approval of the construct-
ion of jetties . and dolphins and dredging in Long Island Sound at Jamesport,
Suffolk County, New York, and
WHEREAS, the site of the -work is located within -1500 feet of the westerly
boundary line of the Town of Southold and accordingly is of concern" to
the Town of Southold and the inhabitants thereof, and.
WHEREAS, after investigation this board has concluded that the work con-
templ,ated by Levon Properties Corporation will adversely affect the inter-
ests of the Town of Southold and cause injury to property within tfie Town
of Southold and will also adversely affect the fresh water resourses .of
the Town of Southold,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That this Board does hereby oppose the
granting of the application of Levon- Properties Corporation for the con-
struction and dredging set forth in said Public Notice No. 6501, the reasons
for such opposition being as follows , to wit:
(A) The construction of jetties and structures into the waters
of Long Island Sound will cause serious erosion. of the shorline lying to
the east of the site and within the boundaries of the Town -of Southold.
The 'inevitability of such erosion is evident by the conditions presently
existing and caused by the jetties and structures constructed by Levon
Properties Corporation at the site within the past several years. The.
threat of .Burther shorel-ine erosion is also based upon observed erosion.
of the shoreline on Long Island. Sound caused by other jetties similar
to those proposed by. 'the applicant in other .locations.
(B) The present sand and gravel operations conducted by Levon
Properties -Corporation at the Jamesport site has resulted in spillage of
clay and other materials into the waters of Long Island Sound. Such spill-
age has drefted easterly along the shoreline and caused a pollution" of
FEBRUARY 6, 1970 2,53
the beaches in the Town of Southold. An extension of the jetties further
into ,'Long Island Sound will cause further destruction of the" beaches in
the Town of Southold by reason of such spillage.
(Cl The construction and dredging operations contemplated by
Levon Properties Corporation will adversely affect the fresh water re-
sourses: of the Town of Southold. The largest available fresh water supplies
of the Town of Southold are located "in the westerly areas 'of the Town of
Southold within a few thousand feet of the applicant' s construction site.
Recent engineering studies conducted by the ' Town of Southold have indic-
. ated that the dredging of water*ays will cause contamination 'of the fresh
water resourses of the Town of Southold by reason of salt water intrusion
and will also cause the fresh water resourses to flow into the waters of
Long . Island Sound thereby depleting such water resourses.
IT IS FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Supervisor of the Town of Southold
and/or. the. Chairman,.of the Planning Board of the Town of Southold be
and they hereby are requested to attend said hearing and to present such
documents and information as they shall deem appropriate to protect the
interests of the Town of Southold and the inhabitants thereof.
e IT IS FURTHER RESOLVED, that a certified copy of this resolution shall be
presented and filed as a part of the records of said hearing.
Vote of Town Board: 'Ayes-Supervisor Martocchia; Councilmen Valentine
and Rich; Justices Demarest and Suter.
a
The following resolution was offered by Justice Suter. This resolution
was not seconded.
"I propose that if the shoreline of the town of Southold is being eroded
by 'the construction of jettys in the Town of Riverhead by Levon Properties
Incorporated, then the Town Attorney take legal. action to cause this
operation to be halted as soon as possible, and further, if the water
supply of the Town ' of Southold is being endangered by the operations of
Levon Properties Incorporated then the Town Attorney take the necessary
legal action to cause Levon Properties Incorporated to comply with the
laws affecting their operations.
