Schlaefer located at Country Route 48 , Southold. This proposal
is for an addition on an existing retail store (known as "The .
Wedgewood Shop) to expand the business. The applicant is
changing the type of retail from furnishing accessories to
furniture. Currenty, Mr. Schlaefer operates a furniture store
at Port Washington. Mr. Schlaefer wanted to begin the phase
1 immediately and phase 2 after the summer season in the fall or
winter. The addition is a one-story in phase 1 to provide additional
floor area, in light of the fact that the applicant is marketing
furniture, he needs large amounts of floor area just to set up.
the items on display. Mr. Strang clarified that the applicant
will also be selling furnishing accessories along with furniture,
whereas the previous store sold only furnishing accessories.
There will be a single access and egress on the westerly side of
the property. Mr. Strang stated that 13 parking spaces were provided
and Mr. Schlaefer stated felt that this was in excess of what his
needs were. The Board questioned the amount of sales area to be
on the site. Mr. Strang stated that it was difficult to evaluate
the area for sales since with furniture, the entire area is .
basically storage and people just meander through the area.
Mr. Strang stated that in Mr. Schlaefer' s present store, which is
twice the size in square footage, the total number of people in
the store at any given time is only six to eight. Mr. Strang
stated that given the size of the site, no additional parking
spaces could be provided. Mr. Strang stated that the phase
one addition can not be seen from the road because it is in the
back of the building and it will be a simple addition of the same

character of the present building. The Phase two addition will
be in the front and facing the street and will be done in a
complementary design to the historical nature of the building
that is existing. Mr. Strang presented a rendering showing
the Phase 2 addition and the existing building. Mr.Mullen
questioned if there will be any living quarters in the building.
Mr. Strang indicated that there will not be any living area at
all, and it a. single occupant building for the single use of the
applicant. Mr. Mullen stated that the parking shows spaces for
4 people therefore, it appeared that alot of business was expected.
Mr. Strang stated that there were four stalls in the rear, however,
they were not all for employees. Mr. Schlaefer and his wife will
be operating the business and there are two spaces for their vehicles
and there are two extra spaces for salesman because the parking
in the rear will not be customer parking. Mr. Lessard stated that
only the Planning Board can determine how much parking is required
and if more is required and it can not be met,a variance will be
needed. Mr. Ward stated that there should be a delineation on the
site plan for sales versus storage especially for future uses of
the premises. If approval is given without any delineation then
if the building is ever sold and a new retail use is begun, they
will have a carte blanch approval to use the entire premises as
retail without providing enough parking spaces. Mr. Ward stated
that he felt this would be helpful in the future. Mr. Strang stated
that the current store was operating with only four stores and if
Mr. Schlaefer hadn' t proposed to add on any building, he could
operate with the four spaces_. Mr. Orlowski questioned what other
accessories would be sold and Mr. Strang stated that normally
with furniture stores, you have vases, clocks, etc. Mr. Strang
stated that he would indicate on the site plan the area of retail
sales versus storage based upon the 13 parking spaces proposed,
he will indicate 1300 square feet .of retail area (the code provides
for one space per each 100 square feet of retail floor area) .
Mr. Orlowski questioned the curb and whether it would be better
to the East since cars are parked along the property of Wheeler' s
Garage and it is a poor line of sight for egress. Mr. Strang
stated the property to the East is residential and could be
used for a house, therfore, he wanted to keep the traffic away from
this lot. The Board will make a field inspection of. this property.

advisement from the Planning Board. The Chairman also stated that

it has a bite out of the bluff. Also, the road will preserve a
hillock, on the remaining parcel. There has been suggestions

at the north section. Mr. Orlowski stated that the Board had
not field inspected the property and that something would be
needed from the Board of Appeals on the insufficient lot width

was of the understanding that the Board of Appeals was waiting
for comments from the Planning Board. Mrs. . Greenfield asked if

is staked. Mrs. Greenfield . stated that there are four flags on
the right-of-way. Mrs. Greenfield also explained that Mr. David

Highway Department. Attn: Raymond L. Jacobs, Highway Superintendent.
Dear Sir, With reference to our phone conversation of April 27 ,
1986 enclosed, please find two photographs of Uhl Lane looking
east indicating the deteriorated. condition of the existing road.
Over the past year I and several other residents on Uhl Lane have
asked the developer, Woodhollow Properties, Inc. for -the road to
be repaired to meet the town specification, but to this date all
we have is "promises" . I would appreciate any asistance by you
or the Town in resolving this matter. If you have any additional
questions, please feel free to call me at 516-938-7541 weekdays
between 9 and 5. Very truly yours, Andrew M. Burkard" .
The Highway Superintendent had expressed concern with regard to
the impassable condition of this road. The Board will forward
a copy of this correspondence to the developer along with a copy
of Inspector John W. Davis report indicating the improvements to
be made.
* * * ** * * * * * *
Sundown Farms- The Board reviewed the access road report from
Mr. John W. Davis regarding the status of the improvements. The
Chairman read the report from Mr. Davis to wit: "Report No. 495
Comments: As of present date the road surface has been smoothed
by Ray Nine (done a few days ago) . The last 700 ft. of this access
was not worked on. The potholes were filled by scraping the road
width with a grading box. No additional meterial was brought in.
According to Ray Nine this grading operation was all that he was
asked to do. His charge for this work was $140 . The existing road
surface prior to any work by the contractor who did the initial
work in i1985 was hard pacekd in most areas and had areas with potholes.
I do not know when this initial work was done or how much bankrun
was brought in. However depths as per report of L.M. Tuthill on
February 6 , 198.6 show an average stone blend depth of 1. 4" . Six
of the ten test holes show 1" of stone blend. As of 4/2/86 the
road is passalbe. The potholes that have been corrected by the
smoothing operation will occur again in wet weather as they are
now filled with loose material. I agree with the Tuthill report
of February 3, 1986 that widening the road in the last 700 ft. to
16 ft. for the length and location as noted in that report to provide
for two vehicles. I would not recommend final acceptance of this
access road until additional stone blend was brought in to provide
for 2" of compacted depth throughout. John W. Davis. "

On a motion made by Mr. Mullen, seconded by Mr. Ward, it was
RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board accept and
request compliance with Inspector John W. Davis ' report No.
495 regarding the access road to lots within the subdivision
of Sundown Farms located at Laurel.
Vote of the Board: Ayes : Orlowski, Mullen, Ward, Edwards
Barbara Kujawski, lot owner in the above mentioned subdivision
w a s present. She questioned who is to call for inspection
of the access road when improvements have been made. Mrs. Kujawski
stated that she had spent $11, 000 to bring the road up to the
specifications in the former report and it is estimated that
the remaining improvements as per report No 495 will cost $5, 000.
Mrs. Kujawski also questioned the amended width of the road.
She stated that she had complied with the first report indicating
10 ' width and now mention was made of a 16 ' wide road. Mr.Lessard
pointed out that the right-of-way width fluctuates with the deeds
and is anywhere from 8 ' to 20 ' wide. Mr. Lessard stated that the
subdivision is in limbo because the existing road is outside the
metes and bounds of the subdivision, and no one has permission
to use the road west of the Sundown Farms subdivision. Mr. Lessard
also noted that Laurel Way has been a road for many years and
excepted at one time, but never maintained, however, it may be
in someone else' s right-o:f-way. Mrs. Kujawski stated that
she had been improving Laurel Way, which is everyone else' s
right-of-way. Mr. Lessard stated that Mrs. Kujawski should
check the road which she is improving, with the people who
sold her the property. Mr. Orlowski stated that the subdivision
map shows a 25 ' right-of-way in the subdivision. Mr. Lessard
stated that it was advised to hold the 25 ' on the west boundary
in case this subdivision was ever developed as a major subdivision.
Mr. Orlowski questioned if Mrs. Kujawski was using the right-of-way
that is within the subdivision. Mrs. Kujawski stated that the
traveled road meanders inside and outside of the metes and
bounds of the subdivision. Mr. Orlowski stated that this matter
will be researched further and the Board will be in contact with
Mrs.Kujawski regarding the improvements.

7: 30 p.m. Public hearing on the question of approval of
the minor subdivision of N. Charles DeLuca located at
Southold for 4 lots on 10 acres.
Mr. Orlowski: First order of business is a public hearing
on the question of approval of the minor subdivision of
N. Charles DeLuca located at Main Road, Southold. This
is four lots on 10 acres. We have proof of publication
in the Long Island Travler Watchman signed by Pat Wood
and notorized by Barbara Forbes, we also have proof of
publication in the Suffolk Times signed by Heather Cusack
and notorized by Mary Deegnan. I will dispense with the
reading of the metes and bounds, if anyone out there has
a problem with that , please let me know. At this time
everything in the file is in order. I will ask if there
is anyone out there with objections to this minor subdivision?
Roger Roth: Mr. Chairman, members, of the Board, Miss Schultze,
I am a resident of Beixedon I own a home on Hippodrome Pond,
which is concerned with this subdivision. I have lived .
here now over 13 years, my family at least 37 before me.
We have noticed problems in the area of this so called
subdivision which is mainly a drainage problem. The north
side of Main Road is quite a bit higher elevation wise
than the lower side so that when we get these terrential
rains, 2" - 3" of rain in a matter of hours or so, that
Planning Board Page 2 5/5/86
Mr. Roth: whole area in there is flooded. And, I believe
the highway department is well aware of this problem. Now,
this flooding runs down the highway and down into a drainage
area in to Hippodrome Pond which drainage cuts right across
these lots in the lower part of this subdivision, I think
it is lot No. 3. But, I think with opening up another
easement onto the Main Road from this subdivision that the
highway department should have some thoughts on their
position on the zoning of this subdivision. Secondly ,
I happen to be an environmental ecologist, I have a degree
from the College of Forestry in Syracuse. I also have a
Doctor' s Degree in Agriculture from Cornell University and
my main concern about this subdivision is the ecology problem
in the Hippodrome Pond. Now, this situation on the North
end of Hipprodrome Pond is all marsh grass , where the
drainage comes in and where the lots are to face on the pond.
This is the area where the wild fowl nest, . swans, the mallerd
ducks and some canadian geese. This type of nesting place
will go by the birds if these lots are zoned and houses
put in. In .addition to that, because the drainage is down
towards the pond we have had alot of drainage from the
farm, pesticides from the farm going into that pond and
the minute they hit the pond, the blue claw crabs, the
killey fish and everything disappear. There is a complete
wipe out for another three to six months. But, with development
in this areaI believe that the ecology of this pond which
is very poor slow moving tidal pond. It is not like the
Mill Creek drainage from the .Hasamomaque Pond, maybe you
would get drainage of 1 hour to 12 hour a day at the hig
tide. If we get sepage, sewage seepage, other drainage
off the ponds, I feel that the ecology of the pond is going
to be affected and it is now under the jurisdiction of the
wetlands authority here in NY State. But that might be
an objection if you look at it that way. The first point
about the drainage should be a consideration by the Highway.
I think that is all I have to say. Thank you.
Mr. Orlowski: May I have your name , please, for the Secretary.
Mr. Roth: My name is Roger Roth and I 'm at P.O. Box 982
Southold.
Mr. Orlowski: Thank you. Is there anyone else with objections
to this minor subdivision? Hearing none. Are there any
endorsements of this subdivision?
Charles DeLuca: My name is Charles DeLuca. I am the gentlemen
that is applying for this application. I heard this gentlemen
say some very interesting things. He calaborates with why
I am putting this application for the subdivision. The farm,
the drainage from that farm is the only threat to the ecology.
] This is why I waited twenty years to put an application
in. There is twenty years I 'could have made the application
when I bought this property. I also am an ecologist and
I also have a home in Beixedon. So, I look for the best
interests of the community because this is my home. And,
as far as the subdivision is concerned by putting only
Planning Board Page 3 5/5/86
Mr. DeLuca: four lots in over 10 acres, I am maintaining
the structure of this community. The farms is the only
thing that runs off with the pesticide and so forth. The
water that runs into that pond does not come from rain,
it comes from the overflow from the pumps from the irrigation.
As far as the wetlands is concerned, you can check with
the conservation people who have washed their hands of the
matter and say that they have no jurisdiction. That land
is high enough for a natural drain and they gave me a
letter to that effect. And that is all I have to say at
this point. Thank you.
Mr. Orlowski: Thank you. Are there any other endorsements
of this subdivision?
William Moore, esq. : My name is William Moore, from the
law offices of Richard Lark at Cutchogue. We are Mr.
DeLuca' s attorneys. I have a letter here I would like to
give the Board that addresses primarily the Suffolk County
Planning Commission' s letter of last summer. (Mr.Moore submitted
the letter to the Chairman) . I will skip the comments.
made here and get right to their letter, and address some
of the concerns because it directly relates to what we
are asking you to consider. The County, in their wisdom
disapproved the application for subdivision and in doing
so set forth a series of reasons dated August 9, 1985 .
The first of which was that the proposal was going to create
land locked parcels. The proposed right-of-way addresses
that problem, more importantly .it has been a policy of this
Board to. not create flag lots so we have access road, but
we found it more reasonable to go with the right-of-way,
and that is a policy of our Board out here. In accordance
with and in compliance with tht policy, so that the question
of landlocked parcels really is not appropriate for the
way we do things out here and the way we prefer to see
the property subdivided. Their second comment is that it
is obvious, and there must have been doing some clarvoyance
down there, but that Lot No. 1 can be subdivided in the
future. So we responded not necessarily directly to
that comment but covenants and restrictions were filed
at your request prohibiting the future division of Lot
No. 1 without prior approval of this Board. I think we
responded on issue No. 2 from the County' s letter. Issue
No. 3 and one that was raised here today is interesting.
The County proclaims that the storm water runoff is going
to go out to the State Road and I think the conversation
here to night is that everyone believes that anything is
going to run from the road down across this property and
not the other way around. A look .at a topographic map would
bear that out. I don' t think the water is going to run up
hill. Finally , the County suggests a cul-de-sac for the
access to these lots. I think this Board has considered
that and rejected that suggestion looking at the particular
width of the subject property as not being an appropriate
way to go about that. Additionally, that would prevent
any future connections and that would prevent a road comming
in the from the property to the East. A cul-de-sac would
more or less prevent any future connection of property
Planning Board Page 4 .5/5/86
Mr. Moore: that would. adjoin for a continued and rational
set of roads in the subdivision. I believe Mr. DeLuca addressed
the question of storm water runoff and evironmental concerns.
He had a negative declaration last summer, the map shows
a 100 ' setback up and above where you will not be down on
the water. If you have any questions, Mr. DeLuca is
here and I am sure he will answer them for you and if I
can, I will do so.
Mr. Orlowski: Okay, thank you. Anyone else here endorsing
this subdivision? Hearing none. Is there anyone out there
neither pro nor con but may have some information pertaining
to this subdivision that might be of interest to this Board.
Hearing none. Any questions from the Board, Mr. Mullen,
(none) ; Mr. Latham (none) ; Mr. Edwards (none) ; Mr. Bryer
(none) .
Mr.Moore: Mr. Chairman, I would like to add one more comment
and that it that we have negotiated with the Villge of Greenport
water and are in the process of putting this together so
that water will come down from the Main Road down to these
lots, if. that is a concern.
Mr. Orlowski: Yes, I was going to ask if a bond has been
established.
Mr_ . Moore: I don' t think they have gotten to the point
of the bond. They have negotiated the terms and I believe
the contract is 10 , 000 dollars. The Village of Greenport
has approved the concept and I think we are discussing now
whether the Village of Greenport will do the work or whether
we are going to do the work, but they have approved that
the contract is being worked out for $10 , 000.
Mr. Orlowski: Okay, the Board would like to have that
as soon as possible. Okay, being no further questions,
I will declare this hearing closed and thank you for
coming down.
7: 45 p.m. Mr. Kowalski was present for 'a presubmission conference
to discuss the site plan for K and K Plumbing located at
Traveler' s Street, Southold. This proposal is for construction
of a retail plumbing store. Mr. Kowalski stated that his
intention was to open up a store to sell hardward and plumbing
parts, and to have a place to keep his trucks. The Board
questioned if this would be a hardware store too or just
plumbing supplies. Mr. Kowalski clarified that this would
be basically plumbing supplies. The Board .also questioned
if this will be retail and wholesale. . Mr. Kowalski stated
that it would be retail only. Mr. Latham questioned the
truck parking and Mr. Kowalski stated that this would be
on the inside of the property. Mr. Bryer stated that
handicapped parking is shown, however, the stall must
be widened. Mr.Bryer also stated that he reviewed the
parking and it is sufficient for this use. The Chairman
stated that the Board should review the conditions of the

Mr. Garrett Strang was present to discuss the site plan
of Sterling Idea Ventures located at Main Road, Mattituck
for construction of a professional office/retail complex.
The Chairman requested that a landscape plan be submitted
for this proposal. Mr. Strang stated that he did not recall
this as being one of the items requested in the Board' s
initial request for information, however, the Chairman
stated that it was requested at a previous meeting. Mr.
Strang stated that the landscaped areas are shown on the
plan, but there is no specific landscape plan at this
time. Mr. Strang also noted that the agenda refers
to professional offices only but the developer would
like to have the option to mix offices with retail
since both area permitted in this B1 zone. Mr. Orlowski
stated that the waiver under the moratorium was to allow
offices only, however, the moratorium is no longer in place
and therefore the Board can consider all the uses permitted
under the existing zone. Mr. Strang .stated that his client
would probably proceed to rent the units as offices, however,
if this does not prove to be - favorable to the client, he would
like to exercise his option to have retail stores. Mr. Strang
Planning Board Page 7 5/5/86
Sterling Idea Ventures Cont. -
Mr. Strang stated that there would not be any uses that are
not compatible with the surrounding area or the zone.
Mr. Mullen questioned if there were any projected tenants
for this project. Mr. Strang stated that. he was not aware
of any. Mr. Latham stated that while he would prefer it
to become offices, there is nothing to prevent all the units
from being retail space. Mr. Strang stated that this is
allowing in the zoning. Mr. Latham questioned if the applicant
would covenant..that only a certain percentage of the units
would be converted to retail space. At this time, Mr.
Robert Celic, applicant, approached the Board. Mr. Celic
stated that the initial proposal was for offices only but
technically: and legally it is zoned for office and retail
so he would not be willing to covenant or restrict anything.
He stated that the plan is laid out to have three separate
buildings, not like a shopping center, and it will tastefully
done. Mr. Celic stated that projected cost is $700 , 000 and
therefore he did not want to restrict any possibilities.
The total square footage of area is 10, 000 square feet.
Mr. Bryer questioned the parking calculations and if any
consideration was given in computing the parking to the
fact that if a building is rented to a Doctor, more parking
would be required under the Code. Mr. Bryer stated that
with retail or office the parking is calculated on one
.space per 100 square feet of floor area, while a Doctor' s
Office requires 5 spaces per physican and if a building
has 6 Doctors in it - " it will require more parking. Mr.
Strang stated that the calculations were based on professional
office only and not for physicians. Mr. Strang stated in
previous works with Doctors offices, the parking breakdown .
actually worked out to 1 space per. 150 square feet of floor
area so that the 1 to 100 would address that issue. He felt
that the 1 to 100 is a strict formula so there should be
sufficient parking. Mr. Bryer requested clarification
since if one of the buildings become a medical office with
8 to 10 physicans the Code requires 5 spaces for each physican.
Mr. Strang stated that the floor was 1 to 100 based strictly
on floor area, and not the actual--.net floor area. Mr. Orlowski
questioned if the buildings would be constructed in sections.
Mr. Strang stated that the buildings would be phased based
on demand. Mr. Orlowski also requested that the plan note
that there will be asphalt parking, and roof drainage. Mr.
Strang stated that the final submission will show roof drainage
once the County has located the pools since tis has to be
coordinated. Mr. Lessard noted that any decisions with respect
to the moratorium are null and void. since the moratorium is
no . longer in effect.
On a motion .made by Mr. Latham, seconded by Mr. Mullen, it was
RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planing Board refer the site
lan of "Sterling Idea Ventures" for construction of a professional
office/retail complex at Main Road, Mattituck .to the Building
Department for certification, (survey dated as amended 4/21/86)

Mr. Paul Caminiti, esq. was present to discuss the
proposed minor subdivision for Salvatore and Jeanne
Catapano located at Main Road, South Harbor Road
and Main Bayview Road, Southold. Mr. Caminiti requested
tht the Board amend condition No. 1 in the conditional
resolution of sketch plan approval. This proposal is for
4 lots on 22 acres. Mr. Caminiti stated that the Board
had approved the sketch map subject to no further subdivision
on any lot in perpetuity. However, he believed that Mr.
Planning Board Page 8 5/5/86
Catapano would not want to place any restrictions on the

discuss the proposal for Richard Carr to be known as "The
Norris Estates" located at New Suffolk 'Avenue and Camp
Mineola Road, Mattituck for 95 condominium units.
The Chairman explained to the audience that this was not
a public hearing and only an informal appointment with the
Board, and he would not entertain any comments from the audience
at this time. He stated that this was for information only
and any concerns should be put in writing to the Board. Mr.
Raynor introduced Mr. Jack Hart of Pelletreau and Pelletreau
the attorney for the applicant. Mr. Raynor stated that he
understood this was an informal appointment to discuss at a
preliminary stage the concept of this proposal. Mr Raynor
stated that the parcel is 27 acres and is M zoned. Mr. Raynor
that the prior submission under the Estate of Bruce Norris
proposed 132 units, and the property is now owned by Mr. Carr.
Mr. Raynor stated that he wanted to review with the Board the
conceptual layout and the road configuration, the area of
Camp .Mineola Road, the ingress and egress, the type of
and amount of improvement that will need to be done.
Mr. Raynor stated that he requested the Board to peruse
the maps and consider the orientation of the buildings with
regard to the layout and solar access to the buildings. Mr.
Raynor sated that they wished the Board to explore the
utilites in regard to water system which will be in conformity
with the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, as
well. as the sewage treatment system which will be terrtiary.
All utilities proposed will be underground and we further
would like to have any comments which the Board would like
to make with regard to the amenities package. .Mr. Raynor
stated that the amenity package included a swimming pool,
club house anf four tennis courts. Mr. Raynor introduced
the people on staff to work on the site plan. The Principal

Norris Estates Cont. -
this point they are asking for conceptual ideas and review.
Mr. Raynor requested that the Board address this action as
a Type I under the .State Environmental Quality Review Act
which is significant. The Chairman stated that this is
not a .presubmission conference it is only a fact finding
mission for the Board. The Board is aware of the scale
of the project and it was felt that if the applicant was
brought in before the Board the plan could be reviewed
prior to pre-submission conference, the Board cold review
the conceptual design. The Chairman invited comment on the
project as this proceeds and requested that all comments
and concerns be addressed in writing. The Chairman stated
that the major question which the Board has at this time
is with regard to density and the sewer and water, the
proposal would be allowed to have two units per acre with
water and sewer and and four .units without. The Chairman
stated that the Board was a aware that the applicant' s
were pursuing a sewer and water system. The Chairman
questioned if an application had been made to the Suffolk
County Department of Health Services. Mr. Hart stated that
there was no application made to date and H2M is working on a
water and sewer study. Preliminary reports have been made
and every thing has to have the approval of the Health Department
and all various agencies prior to going forward with it.
Mr. Orlowski stated that the Board questions the density
being proposed, because if sewer and water are not provided
then the sketch layout of 95 units is not valid. Mr. Raynor
stated that if they cannot meet the standards of the Health
Department, they will certainly reassess the project. Mr.
Mullen questioned the area of the property of the area. He
noted on the survey that the area is .27. 01 acres or 1, 176, 555
square feet. He stated that his calculations indicated 1, 080 , 000
square feet. Mr. Mullen also stated that he would appreciate
if the applicant' s would advise the approximate size of the
unit. Mr. Carr stated that. the basic unit will be three
bedroom approximately 1800 - 2000 square feet with 250 of
the units two bedroom approximately 1600 square feet. Mr.
Carr stated that this is subject to further revision because
the marketing is not completed. Mr. Mullen questioned i
if the units have garages and Mr. Carr replied that they
did have the garages, with off street parking and guest
parking will also be off street. Mr. Mullen also questioned
if the necessary fire protection will be installed. Mr.
Carr stated that he would and Mr. Raynor stated that he
anticipated that they will be installing fire protection
to the specifications of the Town and the Mattituck Fire
District. Mr. Latham questioned if excess water would be
utilized in other areas of the community. Mr. Hart stated
that this is under consideration. Mr. Bryer stated that
Camp Mineola Road will have to be brought up to Town specs.
He also stated that more than likely the 50 ' right-of- way
on the east side will also have to be brought up to Town
specs. Mr. Bryer also stated that he has some questions
on the lagoon areas which he will bring up at a later date
when more information is submitted. Mr. Mullen questions
if the units will be developed in sections. Mr. Carr stated
Planning Board Page 11 5/5/86
Norris cont.
that it will be phased in so far as natural progression for
construction proficeincy. But it is not the intention to
go to phase one, phase two, etc. Mr. Mullen questioned if
the lagoons will be man made. Mr. Carr stated that they
will be man made. There were several questions from the
audience and the Chairman stressed that this is not a public
hearing and the Board would not be taking any action on this
proposal until the question of sewer and water are answered.
The Chairman also advised that there might be one or two
additional information meetings prior to .a presubmission conference.
Mr. Orlowski also stated that there will be additional hearings
on the impact statement and a final hearing on the entire project.
The chairman requested that all questions and concerns be
addressed in writing. Mr. Bryer questioned if the buildings will
be one story or two story since that will determine the separation
between buildings. Mr. Carr stated that the 3 bedroom units
will be two story with 250 of them will be two bedroom with
one story. Mr. Bryer also questioned a 28 ' wide paved surface.
Mr. Carr stated that it will be a 28 ' wide paved surface and
not a right - of - way.. Mr. Carr stated that they are not contemplating
the right-of-way as the main ingress and egress that will be a secondary
entrance only. Mr. Mullen stated that rather than spinning
wheels the Board would prefer to see the sewer and water.
Mr. Orlowski questioned if water would be provided to other
areas and Mr. Hart stated that this is under consideration
and at a meeting held with the residents of the area, this
statement was made. Mr. Orlowski questioned the intent for
parcel two, the -remaining parcel. Mr. Raynor stated that
it is zoned A-Residential and is not part of the application.
Mr. Hart stated that this may be left as open space in order
to provide buffering both for the neighbors and if a use
is found to benefit the neighbors, that will be considered.

a credit to the Town. Mr. Mullen stated that the number of
permanent slips have been increased and he felt that he
would like to see more since there is a severe problem with
finding boat dockage for residents. Mr. Carr stated that the
docking was based on the availability of parking, and the studies
have not yet been completed. They are providing one car per slip
and he did not feel ,that there could be any more permanent slips,
however, this would be reviewed. Mr. Mullen also expressed
concern about people using this docking as a boatel by spending
a week or two on their boats. Mr. Hart stated that he spoke
to Mr. Fenton who is a local resident and has assured him
that they don' t want that to happen either and they will work
to gether to draft a covenant to satisfy that. Mr. Carr stated

the attorney' s will draw up, to prohibit it from being a residence.

regarding the location of a fire well. Mr. Raynorstated that
they had not been contacted but will be contacted shortly.
Mr Bryer questioned the dredge spoil analysis and whether or
nor that had been done. Mr. Raynor stated that it has been
done and was indicated on the Land Use Print. Mr. Bryer requested
a copy of that analysis. Mr. Orlowski questioned the fixed structure
without deck which was noted on the site plan. Mr. Carr stated
that it is being costructed so that it can be deck and a portion
of it will be deck, it is a matter of expenses. Mr. Raynor stated
that out of 460 ' ± there has been 150 ' of that decked over to
allow for people to go out fishing.

NEGATIVE DECLARATION
Pursuant to Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law

Section 617. 10 and Chapter 44 of the Code of the Town of Southold,
notice is hereby given that Southold Town Planning Board as
lead agency for the action described below has determined that
the project will not have a significant effect on the environment.
DESCRIPTION OF ACTION
The minor subdivision of "Russett acres" for Mary and Henry
E. Raynor,Jr. is for four lot son 13 acres located at Sound
Avenue, Mattituck Tax map. No. 1000-121-5-1.
Planning Board Page 17 5./5/86
The project has been determined not to have a significant
effect on the environment for the following reasons:
An environmental assessment has been submitted which indicated
that no significant adverse effects to the environment were
likely to occur should the project be implemented as
planned.
The Suffolk County Department of Health Services has no
objection to our designation of lead agency. They have received
an application and it is incomplete. It appears that the
project can be served by Subsurface sewage disposal and individual
water supply systems (pending a test well analysis) . The
proposed realty development appears to conform to Article
6 lot size requirements. The department is awaiting test
will analysis prior to further processing. If test well
analysis indicate naturally potable water, the department
would agree with our initial determination.
Because there has been no correspondence from the Department
of Environmental Conservation in the alotted time, it is
assumed that there are no comments nor objections from
that agency.
The project will meet all the requirements of the Code
of the Town of Southold Subdivision of Land Regluations.
