Beginning at a point on the easterly line of Cox Neck Road 300 feet northerly from the northerly line of Middle Road, measured at right angles to said line of Middle Road, and running thence easterly parallel to said line of Middle Road, about 970 feet to. the easterly boundary line of land now or formerly of Bullockf 'thence southerly along said line of Bullock about 323 Southold Town, Planning Board --3i.- December 2.0,. 1960 feet to said northerly line of Middle Road; thence westerly along said line of Middle Road about 950 feet to an angle in said Line; : thence northwesterly along the northerly line of said Middle Road about 50 feet to the easterly line of said Cox Neck Road; thence northerly along said easterly line of Cox Neck Road about 290 feet to the point of beginning. Containing about Seven Acres. PARCEL 3.. Beginning at a point on the southerly line of Middle Road at the northeasterly cornier of land now or formerly of Kousourous and running thence southerly along the easterly boundary linIe of said land of Kousourous and then along the east-- erly boundary line of land of the Long Island Lighting Company, about 425 feet to the northerly line of Sound Avenue.; thence northwesterly along said northerly line of Sound Avenue about 900 feet to a points thence- northerly along the westerly line of land of said Kousourous 57 feet to the southerly line of said Middle Road; thence easterly along said southerly line of Middle Road about 703 feet to the point of beginning.

Containing about twenty--three acres.. a d The entire Planning Board has visited this property we have discussed it thoroughly. We believe that although the total. acreage is greater than we like to recommend, never the less the acreage in individual ownership are reasonable and it seemed advisable to extend the zone on the southside of the highway to the Long Island Lighting Company easement because it has been proposed that additional storages be erected on some of this property extending to the south, It would seem to us that this would be the most practical use of this land and, further., that if Southold Town is to remain in the potato business it is advisable that additional storage facilities, either public or Southold Town Planning Board --4- December 20, 1960 private be provided. it should also be noted that the Lcn g Island Lighting Company substation constitutes a non--conforming use and it should be included in this "B" Business District as outlined in the map dated December 6, 1960 by Otto W_ Van Tuyl. The pylko property approximately opposte the substation on the south side of the road is also a non,--conforming use to the extent that three families occupy the house and the barn has been used as a carpenter shop for a considerable period. Vote of the Board: Ayes:-- Mr. Wickham, Mr- Moisa, Mr. Yaung, and Mr. Unkelbach.. The Planning Board received a letter from Woodhollow Prop- erties, Inc.. , George E. Buschmann, regarding Section Two of Or iez t-By-The-•Sea. In the le tter it is stated that while they intend filing the remaining property as Section Two they contemplate renting the greater portion for farming. They will continue the paving of Sound View Road from where it ends at Section ONe to Ryder Farm Lane, along Ryder Farm Lane to Kings Farm Road, along Kings Farm Road to Three Waters Lane connecting up with Section ONe_ They are now negotiating for the installation of this section of road, in accordance with Town specifications, including six dry- wells at a cost of $7, 100, 00 and the work will be completed before plat of Section Two is filed. This will take care of giving access to the public beach as previously discussed with the Board. It is stated in the letter that the cost to install the remaining roads and twelve drywells as shown on plat based on an estimate will be approximately $19,800000. They would like to have the approval of the Town Board to permit them to defer the installation until a latex date and they can furnish a Performance Bond for one year with any renewals of same. They will install all the necessary road monuments and protect same so they are not abused by the farming operations. The Board wished a letter forwarded to Woodhollow acknowledging their letter and stating that the Board is taking the matter of Performance Bond up with the Town Board, Superintendent of Highways and Town Counsel. A letter was forwarded to the Town Counsel, requesting a sample of a Performance Band, knowing if it is usual procedure to add a Southold Town Planning Board -5-- December 201, 1960 certain percentage for possible rise in price of future con- struction, if it is customary to have performance bonds for a single year renewable annually thereafter for a longer period, and any other suggestions on this matter he may have, A letter was forwarded tolhe Southold Town Board calling attention to WoodholloWs plans because the performance bond must be handled by the Town of Southold, and stating that the Planning Board is looking into the matter of footage of highway to be constructed, the cost per foot, and the adequacy of the amount.. A letter was forwarded to the Town of Huntington, Depart- ment of Planning requesting that the Southold Town Planning Board be supplied with information pertaining to their general procedure in performance bond cases. The Planning Board received a ,letter from the Town Board transmitting the original petition of A. John Gada, Fishers Island, requesting that the following described property be placed in the "C" Industrial Districts A, John Gada, having an interest in certain real property as contract vendee, situated at Fishers Island, and more particularly bounded and described as follows: Beginning at a brass plate on the Westerly side of the roadway extending Northerly from Whistler Avenue, said point being on the dividing line between the herein conveyed tract and land of the United Stated Coast Guard known as the family quarters tract. and thence running along the Westerly line of said roadway North 370 06 ' West 82.20 feet; thence along said road line North 160 141 West 80.11 feet; thence along said- road line North 10 29 East 125.3 feet; thence Northeasterly along said road line to land of the United States Coast Guard known as the communications antenna site; thence Northwesterly in a straight line to the shore of Fishers Island Sound, abutting Northeasterly on said Coast Guard land; thence in a general Southwesterly direction along said shore line about 450 feet to the entrance of Silver Eel Cove; thence along said Cove line in a Southeasterly, Northeasterly and South- easterly direction about 700 feet to said land known as the family quarters; thence North 540 East, about 125 feet to the point of beginning.

In accordance With the Town Attorneys request to Mr. Gada, Southold Town Planning Board -6- December 20, 1960 he forwarded a letter to the Southold Town Board amdnding his petition by changing paragraph two (2) thereof to read as follows: "that by changing from quote A unquote residential and agricultural district, the premises described in paragraph one (1) hereof". The Board thoroughly discussed this petition. It was the feeling that members of the Board should visit the site in the near future, but since they are all familiar with it, motion: was offered by Mr. Unkelbach, seconded by Mr. Young, and carried RESOLVING that the Planning Board forward a recommendation to the Town Board stating that the Planning Board would respect- fully suggest that instead of changing the zone on this property alone, that the Town Board on its own motion change to "C" Industrial District all of this immediate area and, in addition, it would seem logical to the Planning Board that the warehouse area west of the Ferry District might well be changed to "B" Business District. Vote of the Board.: Ayes: Mr. Wickham, Mr. Moisa, Mr- You ng, and Mr. Unla lbach. Mr. Howard Terry was requested to contact Chandler & Palmer, Norwich, Connecticut, to determine if they have engineers status in Ndw York State, and also if they have any maps of the Fort area which would be useful to the Planning Board in determining areas to be zoned. Mr. Van Tuyl was requested to prepare a description of the areas in question recommended by the Planning Board. The minutes of the meeting of December 6, 1960, on motion of Mr. Unkelbach, seconded by Mr. Young, and carried, were approved as read.
