Mr. Aurichio pointed out- that no other lots in the immediately surrounding area have 20,000 square feet. The Chairman advised Mr. Aurichio that if he wanted the minimum size lots the Planning Board could require a 50 foot road and a park and playground area. The* Chairman suggested that Mr.- Aurichio have Mr. Van Tuyl make a new map. It- was also pointed out that approval of the highway layout must be obtained from the' Superintendent of Highways and that `,he usually does not go along with odd-shaped turn-arounds. Mr. Aurichio stated they wanted the turn-around to discourage through traffic. The' Chairman also pointed out that the road should be 'made 50 feet wide because invariably An 10 or 15 years the people want to dedicate the road to the Town . and have theTown Maintain them. The water supply and drainage in the area was discussed at some lenghth. Mr.; Aurichio felt he would be aiding the drainage probF�ems in the area. The water table in the area was also discussed.

Mr., Samuel Grimes,- Esq. , attorney for' "Birch Hills at' Cutchogue" was also present. The chairman advised that a letter of approval of the highway layout was needed. Mr. Grimes stated that the layout of Vista Bluff had created two corner. lots in Birch Hills at-Cutchogue, and he felt this lowered the value of these lots. The' Chairman advised that corner lots are considered to be 25/ more valuable, however Mr. Grimes did not feel this held true in Birch Hills at Cutchogue. Mr. Grimes stated that the map of Birch Hills at' Cutchogue showed a park and playground area as their lots did not go down to the highwaizer mark. He was concerned with the 15 foot right of way shown on the map of Vista Bluff. He felt this might appear to some people as a sidewalk to the park and playground area in Birch Hills. The Chairman felt there should not be too much difficulty. SoutImId Town PlanningBoard -3- December 19, 1967 Mr.- Leander Glover was, also present and the Chairman asked him.-how near the plan the roads were done in Birch Hills at Cutchogue.. He stated the road is about 8 feet from the boundary line. Mr.- Dean Stated he wanted the two roads to connect unless one wants to have a private road, but if they are going to be Town roads they must be connected. Mr. Grimes stated they may want to keep the roads in Birch Hills at Cutchogue private for awhile. The' Chairman advised this is okay. , All Mr. Grimes needs to do is put a wall across at the end of the road and there should be no problem. The Chairman advised Mr., Olsen and Mr. Gendron that he wanted to know what the problems would be in moving the 15 foot right of. way to the other side. Mr. Van' Tuyl stated it would mean a new deed and the title company may take new action. Itwas also pointed out that Mr.' Vincent already has his foundation for his house in.
