V. PUBLIC HEARINGS:
THIS IS A .PUBLIC HEARING IN THE MATTER OF THE FOLLOWING
APPLICATIONS, FOR PERMITS UNDER THE WETLANDS ORDINANCE OF THE
TOWN OF SOUTHOLD. I HAVE AN AFFIDAVIT OF PUBLICATION FROM THE
SUFFOLK' TIMES. PERTINENT CORRESPONDENCE MAY BE READ PRIOR TO
ASKING FOR COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC.
PLEASE KEEP YOUR COMMENTS ORGANIZED AND .BRIEFc
FIVE (5) MINUTES OR LESS, IF POSSIBLE
Board of Trustees 3 September 28, 1995
7:45 p.m. - In the matter of 1995/96 SCALLOP SEASON to set the
dates in Town Waters.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Before I take any public comment I_ would like
to say Because of the health of the shellfish itself, the state
season has been set for- October 30th. The State season has been
. put back a whole month from what it originally was. This is in
order to give the. shellfish time to spawn. There was. either no
spawn or the spawn didn't survive the spring. If the scallop
gets the chance to spawn in the fall, which supposedly
500 of the scallops are ready to spawn in the fall. Which is
unusual, but in nature, the animal wants to reproduce and this
is its last chance. In order to continue the scallop population
for future years, we would like . to give them every opportunity
to reproduce. That is the reason At has been set back to October
3.0th in State waters. This public hearing we will discuss
opening Town waters to recreational harvesters and when' to set
the opening to commercial harvesters.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: There is just one other point of business while
we are doing this, if you recall when we where doing the work to
change the state season we all signed a letter that we would
support a resolution to make that change. We just need to act on
it. Maybe we can do initially and then go on with the Town
season.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: That is fine.
TRUSTEE' WENCZEL: I would like to- read a draft resolution.
WHEREAS, Brown tide conditions have existed in the Peconic Bay
System during the Summer of 1995; and,
Whereas, as there has been no Bay Scallop reproduction during
the normal spring-summer spawning season due to the Brown Tide,
and,
Whereas, it has been shown that when Bay Scallop reproductive
failure occurs due to Brown Tide that spawnings can occur during
the months of September and October after the Brown Tide abates,
.and,
Whereas, .the present poor conditions of the scallop meats is
expected to greatly improve by allowing the scallops time to
recover from the effects of the Brown Tide by delaying the
scallop season for 4 weeks, and,
Whereas, the five East End Town Baymens Associations have met
with the Department of Environmental Conservation and have
proposed and unanimously support a delay of the opening of the
Bay Scallop Season to October 3.0, 1995,
NOW, BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED, that the Town Trustees of the
Town of Southold, support and endorse the proposed
delay of the start of the 1995 Bay Scallop Season to October 30,
1995. '
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there any comment on the Scallop Season.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: The only comment have is that the Southold
Town shellfish Advisory Committee met on Monday and made a
recommendation that we set the recreational season to begin on
October 30, 1995 and the commercial. season to begin two weeks
later on November 13th.
Board of Trustees 4 September 28, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Given the lack of public interest and the
recommendation from the Shellfish Advisory Committee, which is
comprised both of commercial and residential shellfish, I vote
to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: So moved. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: I make a motion that we set the recreational
season to begin October 30th and the commercial season to begin
on November 13th.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
7:16 P.M. - In the matter of DONALD COCKS on behalf of
MATT-A-MAR MARINA request a Wetland Permit -to construct chain
link fence around property, approximately 350' of fence along
retaining wall as per survey dated 2/26/92. Located Wickham
Ave. , Mattituck. SCTM #1000-114-3-1.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there any comments? CAC recommends
disapproval. There is no need shown and the conditions of the
permit allows for no further activity at the site. The CAC
wishes to bring to the attention of Trustees possibility of a
violation, the berm is not being maintain as to the requirements
of the permit.
STEVE ANGEL: .We talked about this at our last meeting. We don't
think a fence is going to' stop someone from entering. They .can
just walk in the front gate.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I agree with your assessment as far as a fence
stopping someone intent about braking the law. However, from an
environmental stand point we couldn' t see any problem with
putting a fence on the existing retaining wall at that location.
Is there any other comment.
DONALD COCKS: It is true that if anyone wants to get in the
property, they can get in. The biggest problem we have is trying
to make the customers feel satisfied that their boats are going
to be protected. If the fence is there, that is just enough
right there..
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Sure, We are not hereto make an opinion on
whether it is going to be deterrent or not. One of the things
that we saw that we put a condition on. You will have to do some
clearing along the top of that retaining wall, is that correct?
DONALD COCKS: -Yes. .
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: O.K. What we would require as a condition in
the permit is that there would be a swale area put in between
the building and the retaining wall so that the runoff from the
building is contained,
DONALD COCKS: There was one but we just cleaned up about
$3000. 00 in dump fees. In the process of cleaning that berm was
removed. We didn't put it back because we would. have to remove
it to but the fence up.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: O.K. We would like to see a swale in
conjunction with, a berm. This is the time to do it, while you
are disturbing the site. We would like to see it done now. Any
other comment? -A motion to close the hearing?
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: So moved.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
Board of Trustees 5 September 28, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I will make the motion to approve the
application of Matt-A-Mar for a 350' of chain link fence with
the condition that there be a berm and a swale system set up
along the . south side of the property in conjunction with the
fence construction to contain the runoff from. the parking lot
driveway area.

TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak in
favor or against the applicant? Does the Board have any
comments? CAC recommends approval with' the condition that the
applicant use silt fence and extreme care so no silt goes into

parcel. Do I have a motion to close the hearing?
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: So moved.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I will make a motion to approve the application

North Parish Drive, Southold. SCTM #1000-71-1-10.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak on
behalf of or against the application?
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: There was a question about the walkway on top
of the jetty. There should be a non-turf buffer behind the
bulkhead.
GLENN JUST: We have contacted Natural Resource Soil Conservation
for a plan.
TRUSTEE kRUPSKI: O.K. That will stabilize the area to their
advantage. CAC recommends approval with clarifications,

reconstruct walkways.. The Council recommends approval of the
walkway behind the bulkhead. The walkway located by the middle
groin be disapproved. There is no need shown and the structure
should not be on the beach. The walkway is located on top of a
groin?
GLENN JUST: It goes down toward the water on top of it. I don't
see any reason why it needs to be replaced.

8:12 P.M. . - In' the matter of J.M.O. CONSULTING on behalf of
THOMAS APREA to construct 190' of retaining wall as per drawing
dated as received August 15, 1995. Located 500 Beach Court, East
Marion. SCTM 41000-37-7-9.1.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak in
favor of the application? Is there anyone here who would like to
speak against the application?
JOHN EDLER:- 130 Cleaves Point Road, East. Marion. .Are you going .
to talk about the groins. The literal drift. of the groins goes
. east to west. In audible. spoke about the effects the groins had
on properties to the .west and is against reconstructing these
groins. Spoke of history of area
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Yes. The description that was read off the.
agenda was not a complete description.
..GLENN JUST: At the last meeting you segmented this application.
One section being under the Grandfather with the new
construction of the retaining wall was .separate. That was done
at the Board discretion.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I was just in formed that do to clerical error
we are not going to be acting on- the groins tonight. On our
Board's inspection we did look,.at exactly what you had. mentioned
.about the functionality of the structures. Which is what we.
consider when we look at any structure for a Grandfather
application, because to often we get an application for
Grandfather permit that contains a structure that is more or
less non-functional or non-existent. We wouldn't grandfather a
structure that isn't functioning as what.it is applied for.
MR. EDLER: 'When will it go on the agenda. -I don't want it to
slide through without my comments.. I 'won't be here next month
can my comments be heard.- tonight for next month?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Yes. Lets have this public hearing first. To
construct. 190' of retainingwall. . Which is the structure that is
located completely on the other side of the property on the
channel going into Spring Pond., The Board took a look at this
and .what it is is to raise the elevation of that. beach area
which -is behind all those bulkheads. that are existing. I will
take any comment about this part of the application. The reason
the Board ask to segment it is because the retaining wall seemed
like a pretty straightforward project behind an existing
bulkhead'. It is not in the water.. It will only come in contact
Board of. Trustees 8 September 28, 1995
with the water in a severe storm. It is completely on the
applicants property.
MR. EDLER: I am not objecting to what is on his private . land.
GLENN JUST: We are going to be elevating this one that is in
here 181, elevating this '.one 1-8" and that one. A new one along
here and 4' one here. These beaches in this area are very
susceptible to northeasters. That is where you .are getting all
your sand. This .whole section of East Marion. With a northeaster
the sand last time blew right across, right" over the top of: the
bulkhead, filled in part of the inlet,. fill in this boat slip
and fill in that ramp that all the people. in_ the community use.
Mr. Aprea removed all that fill at his own expense.
MR. EDLER: Where did it go?
GLENN JUST: Right back in groin field where it belongs.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI.: Is there -any other comment on this faze of this
project? The Board?
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Move .to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: CAC comments?
STEVE ANGEL: CAC recommends approval of retaining walls only and
only if the fill was placed legally. Since this report we
learned it. was, therefore we approve.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Move to approve the application for 190' of
retaining wall with the condition that the disturbed area be
planted with beach grass.
TRUSTEE. ALBERTSON: Second.. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI; We will take comment on the other part of the
application now even though we will. not be acting on it tonight.
BOB MUIR: 2850 Gillette Drive, East Marion. If you review the
records of where that parking lot comes in at the end of East
Gillette Drive. The Highway Dept. has had to move guard rail
back on two occasion. They have lost somewhere -between 30 and 40
feet. I think that is indicative of the kind of back swirl
around that has resulted from the. structure of the groins to the
e.ast.TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: .Thank you. Anyone else?
JOE BUSSO: spoke also..
8:25 P.M. - In the matter of EN-CONSULTANTS on behalf of ELINO
DENA, JR. request a .Wetland Permit and Coastal Erosion Permit to
install 281 l.f. of steel retaining wall as close to toe of
existing eroded slope as is feasible to install tie-back system,
backfill with 1,200 c.y. of clean fill to be trucked in from "
. upland source and place a stone splash pad 12+/-' landward of
wall, repair (or replace as necessary) pedestrian access to
beach. Retaining wall done with the concept that it be buried
with sand. Located .ROW off County Road 48, Southold.
SCTM #1000-73-5-1.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone who. would like� to speak in
favor of the application?
ROY HAJE: I spoke to the DEC today on this project. They would
like to see some relatively minor changes. I would like to amend
that before you right now. There is that patch of phragmites
over here. They would like to keep that if possible. That is not
nearly as bad as it is over here. That is fine, so what we will
Board of Trustees 9 September 28, 1995
do is eliminate that section. We will run this return, go up the
corner of .the platform. Same way 30, on an angle, same angle. ,
Just take that out. The only other thing is to place stone armor
along this return. The back fill is all fine.
STEVE ANGEL: DEC wanted that angle here to the bulkhead.
ROY HAJE: We are not going up here.' The only thing we are doing
is putting a return up in here and stopping up in here..
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: That is the property line?
ROY HAJE: Yes. It is odd shaped piece.
STEVE ANGEL: There is no bulkhead there presently?
ROY HAJE: No.STEVE ANGEL: Do you think .the Phragmites are going
to- stay there when the bulkhead is put up.
ROY HAJE: We don't have much of a choice. DEC said you have to
do it and they would approve it under those circumstances other
wise they, wouldn't approve.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: If they came back like that, just say there was
a severe storm and that was washed away, the return would be the
new bulkhead. How is the erosion to the west?
ROY HAJE: This doesn't extend all that far. When you get over
here it stops eroding. You have some unprotected bluffs over
here.
STEVE ANGEL: Are you going with the buried concept?.
ROY HAJE: This is going to be relatively high. To bury that
whole thing, that would take a tremendous amount of sand. It
would be very tough.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: What is the elevation of the bulkhead?
ROY HAJE: Top elevation is 161 . The reason is to try to get that
up as high as possible because of , the severity of that slope.
The higher you can get the toe, the more gradual you can make
that new slope..
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: 16 ' elevated off the beach?
ROY HAJE: No. That is the top elevation. That is not exposure..
It will probably be about 101 .
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Not. that it would bother me, because there is
no sense building a short one and having it come over the top.
Is there any other comment?
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Move to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: CAC comments, recommend that retaining wall be
placed at the toe of the bluff and that the fill planted with
beach grass. I.s there a plan to re-vegetate?
ROY HAJE: Yes, we are going to re-vegetate.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Move to approve with CAC conditions as amended
plan.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
8:.31 P.M. - In the matter of EN-CONSULTANTS on behalf of WILLIAM
TURNBULL request Wetland and Coastal Erosion Permits to
construct 160+/- l.f. of stone revetment against eroded bank and
backfill with 85+/- c.y. of clean sand to be trucked in from
upland source. Construct a 3 ' X 20' stairway to connect to
existing platform and stairs for pedestrian access over
revetment at toe of bluff. Located 54005 North Road, Southold.
SCTM #1000-52-1-1.
Board of Trustees 10 September 28, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone, here who would like to speak in
favor or against the application?
ROY HAJE: Roy Haje, En-Consultants. also Mr. Turnbull is here.
The project is obviously necessary. If you have been to the
property the erosion should be very. apparent. It has .taken in
the nine years that the Turnbulls have owned the property,
considerable portion of the beach. With the proposal that we are
seeking approval for tonight is simply to retain what is there
now without trying to recapture. So we are going to be
maintaining and keeping the bluff line as closely as possible
again. The recommendation to cover it over with sand, in this
case, is fine. We won't be that high a structure. The Turnbulls
want to keep as natural a look as possible. So the request to
cover and plant is fine. The one thing that does give us trouble
however was a recommendation that a covenant be added to the
deed. To the effect of that the Town Beach be restored. The
Turnbulls do have a problem with that in that, in that other
case. How would you show that this structure would be the cause
of any erosion on ,the Town Beach. That has been eroding, Mr.
Turnbull has photos, of what happened to that beach with no
structure on his property during storms. To. show that this
structure would be the cause of even a portion of that,. would be
pure speculation and would put him in serious financial jeopardy
to restore that. In addition having that appear on the deed to
his property is very likely to devalue the property for future
owners. If they saw that I'm sure. they would be concerned on
what they would be getting themselves into. The Town
continuously pushes up the sand to maintain the grade of the
beach. Mr. Turnbull has not done that, he has not gotten
permission to do that. Years ago, typically that was done. Not
only up here but all over the place. DEC when they got into the
business, said no you can't do that. So Town Beach at this point
is considerable wider and higher in elevation than the
Turnbulls. It is very unlikely, specially this type of structure
and the location proposed, would have any adverse effects. We
would ask potential condition be dropped.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I have given thought to it. The other one they
we are talking about that we had put on the C & R's was a
structure. that impacted with the tidal waters and can be
impacted in a majore storm—That one was a .lot different. What I
would like to do is just put in a condition that if the area is
deemed by the Board to be destroyed by that structure that it be
restored by the applicant. It is unlikely that this structure
would have any effect to the Town. Beach at all. The Town Beach
is .subject to erosion on a regular basis.
MR. TURNBULL: See where that stair- case is now, that is where my
beach was before all the erosion.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: We where at the site. We are familiar with it.
I_ think if you put the structure in and there was a major storm
and there was a major hole on town property because of the
adjacent structure. If it looked like this afterwards (pointing
at picture) , I think it would be pretty hard to go out there and
say that is caused by the neighbor.
ROY HAJE: A very obvious gouge immediately adjacent. . .
Board of Trustees 11 September 2.8, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Exactly. ,
MR. TURNBULL: Asked if there is a major .,storm can I reclaim the
sand from out there.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: After majore storms we are having contact and
discussions with DEC about doing just that. Someone suggested
that they mind the sand from Sound, off shore. Instead of
building a hard structure, you build up the elevation of the
beach. It might go in one storm or, it might last for 20 years..
MR. TURNBULL: It would take it away in the Winter and Mother
Nature would -put it back in. the Summer.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI': I think it is a good idea. If you wanted to
explore that, i think this Board would approve of it.
ROY HAJE: Mr. _ Turnbull. might not want to put in that would
stairway. As an alternative he might want to put something more
natural. right. into the stone work. Put a stone stairway in. The
question which we have, ,if we kept it in, we would be assessed
on it?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: It is not over Town bottom.
ROY HAJE: O.K. We will live it in. If he does not decide to do
it, if he doesn't build it, fine.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: - O.K. Fine.
MR. TURNBULL: I would rather it just be as natural as possible.
So I don't have to put that on the deed. So if I some where down
the road if I sell my property, I don't have to tell someone
they are responsible?
TRUSTEE KRUPSKL: That is right.
MR. TURNBULL: Thank you.
DAVID CORWIN: Some of my comments. have been made mute, but since
I waited so long I would like to make them- anyway.
(Inaudible) If he builds a structure on his own property above
high water, I am wondering where you get the mandate for this?
If a stipulation was added to the permit, I think it would be
necessary for all properties anywhere. . .Ifyou are going to make
request like that, I. think you should have scientific fact. . .In
the Town's erosion management plan there is no mention .of
covenants that a property owner would have to do protect the
Towns property or private property on either side of him at some
future point in time. If you want to have something as part of
the permit, I would suggest that you, Southold Town Trustees,
should add input to the local erosion management. plan, by the.
way I was shocked when I went to that meeting and there wasn't
one Southold Town Trustee there. I still can't understand why
you weren't there. This is something the Town has to .live with.
You comment about having discussions with the DEC should be part
of that plan. Spoke about the importance of the Trustees being
involved in this program.
TRUSTEE ,KRUPSKI: Thank you any other comment? We did have the
Town Engineer look at the other project before we had them do C
& R's. That structure was adjacent to a Town Beach and was
actually in the water. I realized this was a completely
different project. Our major concern was to the Town Beach. As
far as the draft plan that the Town is reviewing, I. have
reviewed myself and we are going to. have a discussion about it
later on tonight. I am not sure we are going to recommend.
Board' of Trustees 12 September 28, 1995
DAVID CORWIN: I agree with you. If you gentlemen don't get up
there now while they are reviewing, you shouldn't say months
from now you don't like it. You should have the input now while
it is being formed. I realize you are busy, but .I hope you have
some more input in the future.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Thank you. Move to close the' hearing.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: So moved.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE .WENCZEL: I will make a motion to approve the Wetland and
Coastal Erosion Permits request for William Turnbull with CAC

Structure will be armored with 1+ ton stone on filter cloth,
backfilled with 375 c.y. of sand trucked in from Duck Pond Road

TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak in
favor of this application.
ROY HAJE.: Roy, Haje, En-Consultants. The project is really self
,explanatory. . .if you have any questions.
TRUSTEES-KRUPSKI: Any other comments? CAC comments recommends
approval provided that the applicant bury the bulkhead and plant
with beach grass and allow vegetation to grow.
TRUSTEE GARRELL.- What do you feel about the 4' X 8' platforms.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI': Our usual standard. is 4' X 4' what is the .need
for the size.
ROY HAJE: What I had in mind was an small area to sit. This is a
steep area. It is very popular. We are not going that big.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Any other comment. Given the magnitude of this
application, I. don't think there will be a problem.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Move to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE WENCZEL: Second. ALL AYES.

S.CTM #1000-115-12-12.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak in
favor of or- against the application?
ROY. HAJE: Roy Haje for the applicant. I believe we kept the dock
as close as we could with a "T" configuration. There are docks
in the area the we are in keeping with.
Board of Trustees 13 September 28, 1995
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: We assume that .al.l activity that is, associated.
with the house is well beyond our jurisdiction. CAC recommends
approval that the dock does not interfere with navigation. We
looked at it last week and fee that it is an appropriate size
for the area. Any other comment.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: I make a motion to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I make a motion to approve the application.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second. ALL AYES.
9:04 P.M. - In the matter of EN-CONSULTANTS on behalf of
BROADWATERS COVE MARINA request a ,Wetland Permit to' remove an
existing 14' X 14' wood-surfaced launching ramp and replace it
with a 1616" X 53' concrete-surfaced. ramp by removing bulkhead
on west side of ramp. Ramp will be extended seaward to prevent
trailers from going off end of ramp at low tide. New West side
will consist of 24' upland bulkhead which will connect to
existing bulkhead; and 25' free-standing wall with. 3 ' wide walk,
a top. Excavated upland (10 c.y. ) will be used to back fill new
bulkhead. Modify existing 121. X 20' concrete block tool shed by '
increasing its height by 5' and extending 5' to the south. Lower
4.' of existing shed will be filled in and new floor poured. A 4'
X 4' platform and 4' X. 6' staircase will be added on west side
to allow access from that side. . A doorway will be added on east '
side for access from parking area. Purpose of project is to
avoid flood damage to contents of shed and improve
accessibility. There is no, sanitation system. in this building
nor is one proposed. It is used solely for storage of tools and
equipment. Located 800, Skunk Lane, Cutchogue. SCTM
#1000-104-8-2.5.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Is there anyone here who would like to speak
either for or against the application.
ROY HAJE: Roy Haje for the applicant. The existing wood surface
ramp has. two defects, one is it is too short and the other is
that it is too slippery. We hope to avoid that liability by
putting in a rougher surface as the concrete.' We also hope to
make. it usable at more times. This ramp is now limited to high
tide use. The building is behind the existing bulkhead there is
no wetland grasses back there. As you have read it is too low.
When we have storm events, it gets flooded. We simply want to
raise. Modestly increase the size by 5' on the south side. There
is now intention to change the use of the shed. There is a
.gasoline dispenser there that is no longer used. The tank that
was associated with that was removed long ago.
TRUSTEE KRUPSRI: That was our question. We saw the vines growing
on it. We assumed that it wasn't being used. If the tanks been
removed, that is fine.
ROY HAJE: There was a question about creating a berm on the up
side of the ramp. We don't have an objection to it. The only
thing is that the grade there now is higher then the road.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: We noticed that.
ROY HAJE: Chances are we are not going to get anything down
there anyway after we rebuild it. If anything it will be a
Board of Trustees 14 September 28,' 1995
littler higher. You will still have that natural slope. I don't
think anything is going to come off the road.
STEVE ANGEL: The CAC was more concerned about the runoff from
the parking lot then the road. The CAC recommended that the
runoff be controlled. Council suggest that the regrade .the water
in the parking lot to a catch basin to direct the water away
from the ramp.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: That is a good concern. I think it will be done
naturally because of the spoil site from. the excavation work. It
should raise that, so the parking lot won't be directed on to
the ramp.
ROY HAJE: That would be in effect a berm that we would be
creating on that side. There is a town drain.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Does that come out by ramp?
FRANK ZITO:. I am not sure where it comes out. I was trying to
find out myself the other day. I don't know if there is a
drywell there. It was put .in by the Town quite a few years ago.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: We are going to suggest if the Town can put in
additional rings in that area. We looked for the out flow pipe.
I wouldn't be surprised if it is underneath the. walkway by the
shed.
FRANK ZITO: Yes, that is where I think it is. I have to fix the
boards there anyway, so I will take a look.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: Any other comments?
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Maybe the Town can coordinate with the owner to
do the work.
TRUSTEE KRUPSKI: I will take to Ray Jacobs. Any other comment?
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Move to close the hearing.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Second.. ALL AYES.
TRUSTEE GARRELL: Move to approve with advisory that the Town
Highway Department be consulted- with regard to the drainage.
TRUSTEE ALBERTSON: Second. ALL AYES.
