Mr. Wickham- read the following letter under date of October

Southold Town Planning Board..
Dear Mr. Wickham:
The Su.±folk ,County ,Planning Commission at its regular meeting
on October 4; 1978, reviewed the proposed subdivision plat entitled,
"Minor Subdiraision- Margery ,D. Burns" , referred to it pursuant to
Section 1333 of the Suffolk County Charter. After due study and
deliberation it resolved to approve said map subject 'to the -following
conditions -deemed necessary to help1reserve the .natural and aesthetic,,
attributes of Canoe Inlet and Dryad' s Basin:
1. No sanitary disposal facility shall be constructed within::.- .. .
100 feet of- the mean-high water line.
/ -2-
2. No stormwater runoff resulting from the development and
improvement of the lots shall be permitted to discharge directly into
the adjoining .bodies of water.
3. Erosion control measures shall be required during and immed-
iately after construction to insure that soils and other deleterious
materials will not be carried into the adjoining bodies of water.
4. No building shall be erected on either lot that will be
closer than 50 feet to the mean high water line.
5. All necessary permits under the Tidal Wetlands Act, if
applicable, shall be acquired before start of any clearing or con-
struction on either lot.
/s/ Charles G. Lind, Chief Planner
Mr. Wickham: There are no highways involved. The correspondence
goes back to May of 1974. We have here under date of July 2, 1974
a statement from the then Tidal Wetlands Permit Administrator saying
that the construction of one home would have no adverse effect on
adjacent tidal wetlands and so forth. Our file would then appear to
be in order and I will ask for anyone who wishes to speak in
opposition to this minor subdivision on Cedar Beach Road in Southold
entitled "Minor Subdivision of Margery D. Burns" . Hearing none, is
there anyone that wishes to speak in favor of it?
Mr. Cron:-• - I appear on behalf of Mrs. Burns. As the Board has
indicated, this has been before this Board some period of time and
at one time the were three lots proposed. Since the Board opposed
that particular layout it was decided to proceed with a two-lot
minor. This was delayed somewhat by the .applicant and -somewhat by
circumstances not under her control. I ask that the Board please
make an early determination on this matter.
Mr. Wickham: - Is there anyone else that wishes to. be heard in favor
of this subdivision? I would like to say for the record that these
restrictions placed by the County are, in general, the same
restrictions which we would require on behalf of the Town of Southold
and the one thing which we generally require and is required by the
County Board of Health is that both the sanitary facilities and the
house be graded up to the same level and that would entail 20,000
square feet. We determined there was area enough to do this and
we foresee no problem but I would like it in the record that the
requirements of the County Board of Health are similar, if riot
identical, and will require grading up to the cesspool and the house.
This is put in rather sharp perspective because of an application we
had last week where it was proposed to put houses on pilings and we
weren't able to discover what he was going to do with the cesspools.
Mr. Cron: In light of the fact that the board's restrictions will
be the same as the County' s may I have a copy of it.
Mr. Wickham: Does this board have any questions? If there is nothing
else, I will declare the hearing closed.

Gunther Morchel site plan. Mr. Morchel and Gordon Ahlers appeared.
At first, Mr. Morchel said he didn't own the property that the
Planning Board wanted put in shrubs. Then, Mr. Ahlers said that Mr.
Morchel owned it but was using it to park six small foreign cars
for the tenant's upstairs. Mr. Morchel said there would be a parking
problem if these spots were taken away. The Board insisted that
it be put in shrubbery as per the approved site plan and the cars
be parked elsewhere. There was discussion about a three foot paved
buffer zone on the east.
Lawrence Stojan minor subdivision. Mr., Stojan and George Stankevich,
Esq. , appeared. Mr. Stojan has sold the development rights to the
rear of this property. It should say Minor Subdivision of Lawrence
and Martha Stojan, together and as individuals.' The Planning Board
requested a. copy of the deed for the development rights.
Long Pond Estates. Richard Cron, Esq. appeared. Mr. Cron asked
for some kind of action regarding the approval of this as he has
new recommendations from the Town Engineer.
Russell Case minor subdivision. Mr. Case would like a minor
subdivision where the golf driving range is. Mr. Wickham suggested
to him that he come in for a cluster minor subdivision and use the
golf driving range as the additional open space required and use
one-half acre lots for the buildings. The Board will inspect the
property.
On motion made by Mr. Raynor, seconded by Mr. Gordon, it was
RESOLVED to give tentative approval to the sketch map of
"BaVview Woods Corporation" dated February 15, 1978, pending
submission of a sketch plan map incorporating the proposals made
by the Planning Board in sketch map dated September 7, 1978
including the enlargement of the park and playground.
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Wickham, Raynor, Coyle, Gordon, Wall
Heritage Harbor. Riverside Homes, Inc. Howard Young appeared.
Mr. Young wanted to know what is supposed to be done with the catch
basins and the fact that Mr. Tuthill' s bond estimate doesn't
reflect what is on the map. He wants to know what to stake out.
Mr. Wickham wants to discuss the matter with the Supt. of Highways.
The secretary was directed to set up an appointment.

inspection of the property and looking at the surveyor' s elevations
he can't believe it. Mr. Wickham said potatoes are growing there

appeared questioning the advisability of housing in,that area. --
Orville Terry, Joyce Terry, Frank Kujawski, Marie Johnson, Shirley
Bachrach, Paul Stoutenburgh, Merlin Wiggin, Walter Smith, Marjorie
Smith.
On motion made by Mr. Coyle, seconded by Mr. Gordon, it 'was
RESOLVED that the Southold Town Planning Board recommends that
all consideration be given to Donald Tuthill, the developer of
Yennecott Park, because he has met all the requirements of the Town
of Southold at every step and exceeded them and because the current
proposals will result in substantially lower density than originally
contemplated by this Board and the development uses municipal water.
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Wickham, Raynor, Coyle, Gordon, Wall
This resolution is in answer to a request by Mr. Tuthill for support
from the board in his application to the Suffolk County Department
of Health for release of three lots, #2, #29 and #46 from an agree-
ment that these lots would be held and not sold.
On motion made by Mr. Raynor, seconded by Mr. Coyle, it 'was

August 29,. 1978.
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Wickham, Raynor, Coyle, Gordon, Wall
Rosenberg minor subdivision. A letter was read from Mr. Rosenberg
and Mrs. Rosenberg. Mr. Raynor reported that he had talked with
Dr. and Mrs. Rosenberg and it was his opinion that the Board should
rescind the resolution approving the original submission and where
he has gone to the Board of Appeals he now has a legal lot and the
Board should start again with this subdivision. There was also a
letter dated October 10 from R. Terry, Attorney for the developers,
in which Mr. Terry requested'fno action be taken. There was no
action taken at this meeting.

In answer to an inquiry by John P. Gilowski regarding the
construction of the roads in 'his minor subdivision, the Planning
Board feels there is no reason why he can't remove the top soil
and replace it with bankrun but he will need a stabilizer of
either MC Oil, Pea Gravel or crushed stone.

Beazley of Ecological Analysts, Inc. regarding the new State
Environmental Quality Review Act.
