The Board discussed with Superintendent of Highways Price
the matter of leaching areas. The Chairman stated: It is the
understanding of the Planning Board that there is some question
about the area of leaching areas and involving primarily the slope
or actual net drainage area. and in a discussion sometime ago with
the Superintendent of Highways it was the feeling of the Chairman
that at some time in the future .this should be prescribed in detail
by-the number of. square feet .of vertical drainage area required.
In the meantime I feel this only fair to 1e_ave this up to the
Superintendent of Highways. (Mr. Price stated he would give the
Board a letter on this. -- Mr. Van Tuyl .is to prepare drawings of
catch basins for the Board. ) .
Irving L. Price, Jr. , Esq. . appeared before the Planning
Board to again discuss ,Cleaves 'P.oint, Section Two at--.East Marion.
The Planning Board stated that they have not received a reply from
Town Attorney Tasker relative to the questions posed by Mr. Price
at the last- Planning Board meeting. The Planning Board had not
- given approval to the' C.leaves Point, . Section Two map because no
access to water had been provided. Mr. Price contended. that the
roads .are to be private therefore his client should not be made to
provide. access to the water. The Chairman read the preamble of the
Southold Town Planning Board -9- October 3, 1961
Rules and Regulations for the Subdivision of=Land to Mr.- Price.
Item 3 states: "To provide adequate access for fire fighting
equipment, snow removal equipment, ambulances, police cars, and
other emergency vehicles. " Item 6 states: "To provide for the
orderly development of waterfront property. "
The Board directed that- a letter be forwarded to Town
Attorney Tasker. requesting his immediate attention to the Planning
Board' s letter of. October. 4th pertaining to Cleaves Point-. Section
Two. The Board also asked that Mr. Tasker be present- at the next
Planning Board meeting, if possible, to discuss "Cleaves Point
with Mr. Price and the Planning Board.
to
A letter was also/be forwarded to Mr..' Price advising him that
the Planning Board has requested the Town Attorney to be present
at the next. meeting and if this can be arranged he will be notified.
Mr. Van Tuyl inquired as to the status of the proposed dedica-
tion of Gull Pond Lane at the proposed subdivision of 'Fordham Acres.
As per the motion made at the Planning Board in September, the file
was returned to the Town Board stating that the Planning- Board finds
this application to be a departure from Town policy -in that this
proposed road does not have the required turn-around at the water
and the Planning Board would not be willing to approve the highway
at the present time.
The Planning Board received a letter from the Suffolk-County
Department of Planning stating that -.Pursuant to Section 1304 of the
Suffolk County Charter, the Suffolk -County--Planning Commission at
a Special Meeting held on September 20, 1961, considered .Amendment
No. 46, . Woodhollow Properties, Inc. , . Orient, . New York, amendment
to the' Southold Town Building Zone Ordinance. It was the decision
of the Commission to approve the amendment.
The next meeting of the Southold Town Planning Board will be
held November 1, 1961, Town Clerk .Office, Main Road,- Southold, New
York at 7: 30 P.M.
