And lastly, a notice for the supply and delivery of Isuzu truck parts for the parks and wreck um garbage trucks. And that's it. Does anyone have questions for Jeannie? Nope. Thank you, Genie. Okay. Next up, we will hear from Tina Logaren, our planning director, to go take us through a PowerPoint on the introduction to planning applications best practice study. Thanks for joining us today, Tina. Thanks, supervisor. Good morning, town board members. Um, this is a brief introduction to a planning applications breast practice study that's currently underway. The best practice study is an effort to review our work procedures and see that we're utilizing sound practices to conduct our work around site plan applications at the

004planning board. To give a little background, one of the first things I did after I was appointed um as planning director in January was start talking to deputy supervisor Kate Rogers regarding doing this type of study. Um and the funding was allocated, the funding request was to allocate funding for consultant resources to review process and procedure. Our procedures for reviewing site plan applications are rather old. and they are in need of modernization. Having worked in a range of settings in my career, I realized how important good procedures and process documents are for providing consistent and fair results and for providing training and it's especially important in a municipal setting where you want to be sure you're being consistent. Aside from that, it's often helpful to take a step back and take a fresh look at

005things, right? So, that's what this study is about and the goals are very simple. Um, importantly, we want to enhance efficiency, make sure the planning review process is streamlined, that the reviewers and applicants have um, effective tools to conduct their work, that we're working not only hard but also smartly. We also want to make sure our approaches are consistent, the same issue should get handled the same way, the same information should be asked for with all things being equal. This doesn't mean we can't address nuance in projects, but it does mean that we're being uh consistent and that we've got the tools to do that effectively. And then we also want to make sure the process makes more sense. You know, in a municipal setting, when applicants who don't work there all the time come

006in, it's often difficult to navigate the process, but we want to make sure that our process is accessible and understandable to those who need to access it, whether they work here all the time or not. Uh so the timeline, you know, we started in February, in January, excuse me. Um trying to allocate funding for this in February. We received uh the bid and then the contract was approved in March. So it's been going on since the beginning of the year. The firm we've hired is AKRF. Uh they are a larger firm with offices throughout New York. They're experts in municipal land use review and SECRA. Uh they're a larger firm that has a history working with um East Hampton but also with municipalities throughout the state and they've worked with us on a range of

007projects and are currently um reviewing applications for us for for different projects. Now to talk specifically about the scope of the study, uh it's just two phases. In the first phase, we're working with the consultants to review existing conditions. In order for them to make effective recommendations, they needs to really understand the details of how we currently operate our process. So, they're reviewing existing rules and tools. We utilize our code, our forms, our instructions, our internal templates and checklists. They're watching meetings to understand how work sessions are conducted and how we interact with applicants. And they're looking at the products after meetings and and how the applicants are guided through the process. Based on this, they're going to summarize their observations and potent um identify potential strategies for improving efficiency. Um the next phase is

008to identify and implement the enhancements. Um the strategies that we're looking for are both internal facing and external facing. So the internal strategies would focus on the planning department, how we conduct our review, how we spend our time, um what tools we utilize to do the work. And then the external strategies would be how do we guide applicants through the process? um what information we ask them to provide, what business rules we utilize to govern our interactions with them and um how we can enhance those tools to help them uh perform effectively with us. All would be guided by the goal of increasing the efficiency and how do we best serve the needs of the town. Once we've vetted the consultant observations, we'll proceed with sharing recommendations with the planning board and the town board.

009right for any changes we want to make. We want to make sure everybody has the opportunity to participate in the discussion and provide input and we anticipate the changes will be of all different types. Um the tools I rec I mentioned but also potentially even code changes right our code around site plan is quite um old as well. I do want to note that the site plan process is a complicated one. It involves complicated projects, complicated and intricate environmental settings. We're we're not going to find a magic wand that it'll be over in a month or or so, but we do want to make sure that we're making it as um straightforward as possible. And even though it it's going to remain iterative, that those iterations are always advancing the applications as much as we

010um as much as we can. And always we're going to be guided by what we do in all our reviews, which is ensure that the project outcomes are consistent with the town's natural resources, protection values, and community character. Um the aesthetic resources that we hold so important here. You know, all the reviews and the tools that we um develop will all be in service of making sure we maintain those. Um so that is pretty much the summary. The next steps we started working with the consultants in April and they are currently going through the reams of documents that we sent them to review in the next few months. We'll be back in front of you and the planning board to discuss the findings and next steps. Great. Thank you. Anyone have questions for Tina? No,

011I just want to uh thank Tina for um you know she she was appointed in January and here um she came with this proposal for the study and and that is based on and I want to thank you Kathy for you know looking how we can modernize our systems. A lot of the systems that have been in place in the plane department are have been there quite some time. And with the uh the the opportunity now with the introduction of an online system to now see how that meshes with the existing systems, what's redundant, what can be changed to increase efficiency while while we uphold the comprehensive plan is a a goal I know that we all share. And I want to thank you for uh for Kathy for making that a goal for the

012entire town. And I think the planning department is as one of the busiest departments in the town. I think we say that about every department, but I'm going to claim it for the planning department. Um I think it's a really good place to uh look at procedures that may work in other departments as well as we ch change over to uh using open go. Yeah, I agree. I agree with Kate. I think um I I thank Tina for this, you know, the initiative to do this process. I think that um we live in a beautiful place. There's obviously been very thoughtful and careful planning to protect what we have. Um and I think we need to be that way about development, but at the same time, I appreciate your goal of being as efficient as

013possible so that as we, you know, do good planning and protect our our community, we're also doing it as quickly and as and efficiently as possible so we can do more um work. I think that the the consistent treatment of applications just speaks to fairness and that's great and I'm happy that you pointed out that we can still appreciate nuance and and small differences but have an overall consistent process so that everybody knows what to expect. Uh and I also think you make a great point about being approachable to all stakeholders. We have very complicated involved projects. And we also have people doing relatively minor things and it, you know, creating a process that works in both cases and let the simple things be simple and the more complicated things be treated with the care

014that they need is is great. And so I wholeheartedly support this um this process and I look forward to seeing what you find. And thank you Kate too. I'm sorry I should I should I should certainly include you in in the initiative. Yeah. I I would just add thank you Kate and Tina for like bringing this forward. I look I think consistency, efficiency, logic, they're things we want in all the departments. Um you know echoing Kate's point you know just with some of the external stuff we've obviously had the move to open gov. I don't know if the recommended changes we'll see from AKRF will impact you know process flow and what we're expectations are on users for that. Um but it's just something to keep in mind. I I think you know it's obviously

015early stages but you know as we move forward with this just a clear kind of communicated timeline with what the changes might be when they're going to take place and any training that we can give to you know people who will be using it be it public or professionals just to ensure that it is as seamless as possible if we do make any of those transitions would be my feedback. Actually one other piece is just you know I know we talk about stakeholders we talk about AKRF but is there any forum or format for you know heavy users of the you know site plan um to actually give their input to you as well. What would be the best format for that to come to you? We do plan to talk about the recommendations both

016with the planning board and the town board. So I think um at those work sessions would be great to hear feedback um from the applicant community and non- municipal kind of side of things like you know businesses who you who use it extensively planners you know are we kind of bringing in any of their feedback as to like how they see you know things might want to change. We hadn't planned to um but we certainly could you know one of the things we wanted to do with open gov was get that type of feedback but the rollout schedule um definitely require that we just put it in place. You know one of the things I think would be great is to hear the feedback from the applicant community about how that system is going and

017and kind of marry it with this. I mean I didn't mention open gov in this presentation but obviously any of the procedures that we put in place will be open gov procedures right and will will complement and dovtail with that systems workflow process and any work changes in workflow will have to be um communicated there and as we're rolling that out we're getting feedback from like our internal staff about how is it working how how can we do it better um and so if the applicant community could participate in that conversation I think it would be helpful Yeah, I I agree. So, yeah, and and I think we are already getting some users are reaching out to us and I'm sure they're reaching out to Tina um as open gov has rolled out. So, a

018lot of the questions that we got initially um we tried to like put and update our website with answers to them. So, like if we were getting the same question twice, we just like put it on the website like okay, here's how you handle a resubmission. Um but I mean some some more collaboration I certainly think would be helpful. Um, so I can think about how to incorporate that and and hear from folks. Great. Great. Thank you, Dina. I appreciate you coming out today. Okay, Jake, you're up nine Uclair Street and Springs. This is uh for Allan your modification. Welcome Jake. Good morning, Madam Supervisor, town board. I am happy today to represent Charlie Collins from my office. Saved him a trip. We saved him a trip. So, this involves nine Oclair Street Springs. The

019interesting thing about this parcel is one, it is vacant, it is undeveloped, and third, it is surrounded by three streets. If you look on the screen, it's going to be on the mid left portion of the screen. You Patrick, if you go to the second to last page, is that the page you want? It doesn't matter. That that'll that's Nope. Never mind. You can go back. Okay. So, as we can see here, as of right now, under the urban renewal map, the access point for the parcel is on Fort Pond Boulevard. The owner has requested that the access point be Corbin Avenue. This has been reviewed by the planning department, the planning board and the town engineer. All of which support this proposal. They feel that it is practical and the only recommendation that they

020had was that the applicant actually move 5 ft further away from Aclair Street. Okay. So, just disclosure, this is my neighborhood and um I I believe that that recommendation for Corbin makes tremendous sense. We have um the school bus stop is in the morning. It's the southwest corner. So, having um and parents typically some that you know in foul weather, they'll sit in their cars with their kids along Uclair. So, it makes perfect sense to have the driveway on Corbin. Corbin is a dead end as you can see. There's only um a handful of houses on that street and I think it and then the school bus on the way home is across the street uh right at the end of the end of Uclair heading west. So really moving the the driveway just is

021good planning. Makes sense. I would agree with it. It's also a corner lot that's got three front yard setbacks on there then too. So you can see where the principal setbacks are allowed then too. And it also takes a lot of uh uh another uh street cut off of a busier street in the town of East Hampton, too. So, and I should also mention on that southeast corner, that's where all the mailboxes are cuz it's uh urban renewal. So, there's probably two dozen mailboxes that align the the southwest corner, southeast corner. Yeah, I'm supportive. I think it makes sense. Yeah, I'm supportive. No, go ahead. I'm fully supportive as well. Nothing to add. All right. Thank you guys for Thank you and thank Charlie for preparing the list. I was gonna actually say Okay, we're

022cruising. Uh, next up is James Pinkock with our current capital projects update. Welcome, James. Morning, Madam Supervisor. Council members are good morning. So, I'm James Pancot. I'm the town's capital project manager and I'm here today to um present on current capital projects and also a little preview of uh some upcoming ones. Okay. So, we'll be talking today about the Montalk Playhouse of course which is the uh aquatic center and then the multicultural youth center. Um we have Old Stone Highway Culvert which is restored. You can you can drive by it today and see that it's uh it's actually completed. Um Stephen Hans Path multi-use fields which is going to be epic when it's completed. Um Steven Hans Path long lane roundabout. The highway department roof replacement was badly leaking for years. We're going to be

023talking about that. Sanitation lean to which uh suffered some damage during uh supertorm Sandy and is uh was basically demolished. Needed to be replaced. uh Westlake dock repair, the town hall plaza leaks, which is um if you go to town hall, it's the the brick patio in between buildings in the back. It actually leaks down into the offices below. So, that has to be repaired. So, that's my office. And we also have uh Parson's black blacksmith shop siding restoration. If anybody's driven past there, you can see that the siding has been buckling and and and coming apart for years. So, and then we have the lamb building egress stairs which were found to be in disrepair. It's a safety hazard. So, that had to be prioritized to uh being replaced. So, there's no shortage of

024work for you. No, this is just this is just a sample. Makes sense. Monto Playhouse Aquatic and multi-purpose cultural center. I want to speak about the pools first. I separated this into two slides or two categories. So, we have the lab pool and the leisure pool. The construction of these pools, it's a gunnite pool um or both of them are gunnite pools uh has been completed um as of now. Um the next or final steps which is actually being completed yesterday and today is having the marble dust which is not actually dust. It's more of like a concrete. It's a crushed marble and refined concrete. It's a mix that's applied to the uh to the walls and the bottom of the pool. I wish I had pictures of that one, but the pool deck will

025receive an application of epoxy that has aluminum oxide and other aggregates in it to achieve that anti-slip coefficient, which is what we're looking for. Something that's not too hard on the feet, but also it'll keep you uh from slipping whether it's dry or wet. So, that's what we're looking for there. Um, all remaining storefront glass is soon to be delivered and installed, such as a sliding door and the window for the office and the viewing area and the glass for the handrails. There's a lot of glass in this building, which means there's going to be a lot of cleaning in this building. But, okay, here you can see this is the pool before the marble dusting. So, that is just concrete that's been um aggressively washed to prepare for the marble dusting. This is a

026leisure pool with the ramp and the and the handrails. This is also has been marble dusted as of yesterday. Um, and one thing too with the marble dusting, as soon as the marble dusting is applied, actually the pool actually has to start being filled. It helps with the with the curing process. If it doesn't get filled right away, the potential for drying out rapidly and leading to cracks is exists. So, they're actually filling it now. And once you start filling it, you can't stop filling it because you'll end up with a ring. So you have to just keep on going until it gets up to the tile portion at the top of the pool. So this is the pool deck. Can I just add on to that also if you don't mind on this project

027which on the less on to once we fill the pool that also means the systems for the pool will have to be balanced and tested and ongoing. Correct. And uh so we're preparing um to have the pool, you know, the the pool constructors, specifically the subcontractors uh educate the town staff and others about operating the pool equipment, too. So, it's it's actually sort of a milestone moment to the pool. Absolutely. And that email um to schedule that is is going to be coming out any day now. Um here we have just a sample of picture of the the locker room, one locker room on the left hand side. Um it does look like a narrow view from there, but they're actually very, you know, they're actually large. They're spacious. Um and on the right hand

028side, this is the pool deck area. Um this is basically just how they prepare for the epoxy. This is the actual pool mechanical room. So the filter that you see on the right hand picture that the big the vertical blue filter there that is for the lap pool and then on the far end is for the leisure pool and I will speak about the cultural center. The event spaces are nearly complete. They're actually at 98% at this point. And so the only thing that's that's left is you know the miscellaneous electrical uh fire you know making sure all those systems are are buttoned up. So also the AV components. So, um they tested the motorized doors uh last week. They tested them and uh adjusted them and made sure everything was balanced perfectly. So, they

029run very nice. Um more glass railings will be installed up above the west lobby on that west corridor. They're actually 80% done with that as of now. Um this all is going to get a top rail as well. So, it's not just glass, which actually we heightened the glass because originally it was just set at um I think it was the the minimum, but now it's it's up at 48 in. We did a change order for that. Yes, we did. We we torch. So, yeah, that with the handrail is going to be substantial. Supervisor, I was looking being in there last week. It was a good decision. Yes, absolutely. It makes a big difference. So all the HVAC equipment is currently being uh balanced right now because obviously we have to get the um the

030space climate adjusted for not only just the aquatic center but the rest of the building. But the aquatic center is a big one because it's a big moisture creator. So we're going to need a system similar to what is at the Y to remove that moisture and to kind of clean the air. So and they're balancing all that to get up up and running now. So, as the work in the spaces is completed, they're going to be closing up spaces that they can where people don't need to go back into and lock them if possible so that we can have a nice sterile clean place when uh we're ready to open it up. So, uh the parking lot was paved and it's actually going to be striped tomorrow weather pending. I know I have it

031at the end of the project, but they actually want to do it tomorrow weather pending. And there is some miscellaneous site work uh such as landscaping that continues. This is an image of the meeting room or meeting rooms I should say plural. You can you can separate them with the partition in the middle there. This is a event space. We're looking back towards event space A. So this is on the north side and then you know coming towards Oh, I'm sorry. You don't get to see A because we're in in you know basically B and C from this image. But that's the event spaces there. We can just go back one if you don't mind Patrick on this. So, one of the last things that outside of um uh Crossroads, who's a general contractor at

032the town, next steps will be coming in to installing our our audio visual and our security components into this working with the other l uh lease lences uh within the facility coming up uh finishing finishing and instituting our security plans for the building which is a very large building. Overall, I want to thank James for this project. It's a very intense project to develop uh uh both a pool and a a multicultural facility within a building that's nearly over 100 years old and in an historical national historically registered building. I thought the contractor and the teams did very well to stay on track. Uh Scott Deberino who's the engineering uh firm uh part of the engineering firm did very well. the overall product. Uh when we uh cut the ribbon on this, I I keep

033saying this at the M talk CAC, it's going to be jaw-dropping for some individuals that walk in there. Granted, you know, James and I are walking there almost every day. Yeah. Um we get used to it. Yeah. It's it's it's going to be a transformative change to multiculture and aquatics within uh Hamlet and Mak Stampton. I think everyone's support for decades on this project and as the board has seen uh the public very shortly within probably weeks is going to see their product of patience and support which is another great thing of a public private partnership. Absolutely. I'm I'm happy for the opportunity because I've never had a chance to do something like this before. But I will tell you this, even in the last few days, just walking through there, just with them removing

034materials that they no longer need or equipment and just opening up the space and getting it clean, that jaw drop thing even happens to me. I'm there every day and I'm still like, "Wow, look what we got." So, I can't wait for people to see it for the first time. That's going to be great. Okay, Highway Covert Restoration. So, in this project, there was fragmitees that were removed. Um there is restabilization of the bank and obviously the big part was replacing the uh the covert which uh was rusting and and and and getting damaged. Um the roadway above the covert after it was done was replaced and restored to as it was. So currently when you drive down there you will see that the roadway has been paved has been striped and also the walls

035um of the overpass have been all the cracks have been gouged out and resealed and then painted. But it's wider now. It feels wider. So, it's not wider, it just feels wider the way they've done the light. I think it's just the visual impact of the work makes it feel that way. The nice bright white paint um you know, the road repave. Yeah, cuz it feels like for the the farmers market has been pretty intense up there and especially when we have the um blacksmith shop open, there's just a lot of action. The church was had their own activity, so they had some of the parking lot uh roped off this weekend. Um, so it was kind of crazy. It's nice that, you know, we've asked folks to park on school street and it just

036feels safer to walk along the I guess the fog lines. Good. I'm glad. You know, so excellent. It's tremendous over by the bridge. Yes, it does. And Ian has been the the point person on this too from the town board. No, it looks great. It was so the the bridge was so old that it was actually soil on the outside edges which is now full pavement. So I think it is it is a safety improvement even though the width between the edges is the same. That would make sense. Yeah. Cleaned up. Absolutely. And and just to clarify I I I think Kate, Dave, Kathy all worked on this before me. I'm happy to be the lay on record but I didn't do much. But see you got it over the finish line. You coordinated part

037you coordinated with the schools. Your comm Yeah. Looks great. Yeah. You did a lot there. Thank you. Here's the images on the left. You can see the roadway painted with the, you know, you know, walls painted and restriped. Oh, the walls are nice and straight now. I know. Yeah. I also want to thank the contractor on this project. Absolutely. Uh the there was a lot of patience by the contractor to fit within the school scheduling because when the road was closed, it's a very heavily used day for I been through it twice today. Um dropping my kids off. Um and the patients allowanced for that was well was well noted by myself and other school parents on there then too. So I want to thank the you know the contractor for and they had to

038accommodate the Springs Food Pantry as well because the the lineup for the food pantry. I think they wound up having to extend their hours because there was such a delay. They did and the police department helped and and Dave makes a very good point and one that I I probably should have made is and the contractor adjusted their own schedule and completed the work when the road was closed in less time than they had they were allowed to do it entirely during a school break. they really minimized the the amount of time that the road needed to be closed and the planning separating the project you know from the fragmite removal and doing all that when it wasn't impacting anybody and then also you know the the culvert itself during the school break is you

039know it's good planning and part of the funding for that sorry if I go back to that one uh we want to thank the former assemblyman the uh because there was funding that came from the state to this project also that we diverted from another another uh multimmodal project also then too. Um, honestly, you know, it's it's going to be there a lot longer than I will be here. Uh, and it's been there a lot longer than I've been here. So, I I I think it's very appropriate for the heart of springs, as we would call it, and the historical district then, too. So, kudos to all involved. Stephen Hans Path multi-use field, the turf, excuse me, is a turf field that is lined for multiple sports. So, you're going to be able to get

040lacrosse. You're going to have football, soccer, field hockey, baseball. What am I missing? Softball. Oh, yeah. Sure. But it'll be more like a practice field for baseball and softball. I don't think they're going to use it as as a as a but at least it'll be the lines will be there so you can follow them. So, multi-use field. They're all the same color lines as the high school also. So if any of the, you know, the teams wanted to practice there or kids wanted or adults wanted to practice and they went from the high school to this field or vice versa, the lines are the same. Correct. And they'll be used to it. Sure. That I want to thank Kathy Masterson at the high school for assisting John Rooney and that also the athletic director

041of the high school. So this uh field features the Musco lighting uh same as as over in the baseball field across the parking lot. Um on the two goalpost ends, they have 20 foot high fencing and then 16 ft um that parallels the the bleachers. The footing currently the footings for the the the bleachers and the retaining wall is in place. Uh the footing is is there for the bleachers already. The retaining wall has been formed up and is ready to pour possibly tomorrow again uh weather pending. So the contact the contractor has been laser grading all the crushed stone and they might be hopefully again weather pending um turfing as of tomorrow. So I spoke to the contractor this morning. So that is your image of the footing for the bleachers. Um just behind

042there as of today uh there is basically well as of yesterday there's a formed up wall for the retaining wall just to the right of that footing. And there you just see one of the anchors for the uh goalposts on the right hand side. Stephen has path long lane roundabout. The roundabout was constructed to assist with the traffic uh direction and is constructed of concrete and also Belgium block. It's features a low profile so that some of these these longer trucks and trailers can actually get over it. some of the the little boys like um Riverhead Lumber, you know, has lower vehicles that can actually pass over this without a without a a big lip to climb up on. So, Suffach County Water Authority um tapped the main to provide for water for the irrigation

043and the plantings. The irrigation line actually runs underneath as a conduit that they place, you know, ahead of time to run under the uh the road so it wouldn't have to be torn up again. So, nobody wants to tear that road up again. So now all they have to do, the irrigation guy can come through, run his copper through there and stub it up on both sides and then do his work and we won't have to touch the road. So that was uh good planning there. So l if you pass through there recently, you'll see the landscapers have placed top soil and plantings in the area. There's also a nice large stone inside the radius. It's a very it looks very appealing when you drive by it and it serves a purpose. It's and it

044serves a purpose for sure. But it's a it does look nice, too. So, uh, last week the contractor began grouting the Belgium block with concrete. Uh, last week the paving was done and and everything was striped out and, uh, grouting the block does continue. They're pointing now on the long lane side going up towards the high school. And um they're going to have the irrigation guy out there on Thursday to get that all installed hopefully. So, and that also does feature a a double check valve. It's necessary for Suffach County Water. And I want to thank Suffach County Water for for helping us out and getting that line tapped as well. There is one change order that I've requested on here um for the irrigation electric panel. It's pretty pretty visible. We've requested some um

045holly trees to be placed in front of it just to give us some extra screening from that. They'll grow in obviously on there. So that hopefully they'll be installing that by and finishing this by the end of the week. They will. I think they're looking at five um something like that plantings there. And um one of my images is going to show it here. But this just features a line striping down long lane and then you can see the the concrete which is not u blocked yet. It's not pointed, but they're working on that today. Um on the right side image it is difficult to see but the um the electric would be off to the right there but these are the plantings on the rock inside and you can see some of the Belgian

046block. Yeah. And everything was poured there at about 4,000 PSIs. So uh we've witnessed I've heard from Patrian Jr. about his trucks and other individuals. Uh I know farm vehicles will probably be starting to go through there shortly. We'll hear from Ian in the industry also, but um the the PSI is made for if large trailers and heavy trailers need to drive on it too. So, it's been designed for that. But, uh we've been witnessing through the construction that um if more experienced drivers don't need to drive up on the on the truck apron, but overall it's sized appropriately then too and working well. It is working. The feedback has been tremendous. I mean, I everywhere I go, people and they're shooting me emails. And David and I uh last week met with uh East

047Hampton School Superintendent Adam Fine and the president and vice president of the school board and and they were very grateful for the and they were supportive from the beginning. They had put a letter out for I know there was some growing pains with it, but you know, um now that it's done. Yeah. No, I I love it. um and um use we all use this way to get out of town and I actually think it's going to reduce traffic on some roads that have seen the most traffic as everyone has avoided making a left onto long lane to go into the village or coming up this way and trying to make a left to go to the traffic light. Um that it that's been my avoidance at all costs. Um, and I just think it's

048going to not only function safely for this really scary intersection, uh, that has existed for years, but it's also going to redistribute that traffic a little bit. Absolutely. And take it more through, you know, commercial streets rather than always going through cedar. Um, and hopefully that also reduces folks desire to speed on Cedar. I always want to talk about that. Yeah. And if I and uh superintendent of the highway Steve Lynch uh they paved the road all the way up to Cedar Street here, he also changed recently uh the traffic flow at the intersection of I think at that point it might be northwest and Stephen Hanss path to try to remove the negative 45 intersection was there. That was big too. Uh so widen it for trucks but also reduce that because negative 45

049intersections negative 45 degree intersections are just they're they're they're horse buggy trails but they're just dangerous to look at. So it will take some indiv uh take individuals um patience to learn those routes and and those changes but um I think it's going to work well. Uh the project at 114 and Stephen Hans path is a state project that is delayed. That is a Oh, it's I was just going to ask say that's a state project. Uh per their engineer, they're still on track to be complete by July 4th, but questions should go to the state dot on that. Yeah, I don't think I'll miss the intense flooding though. Um you know, that project it was up to the Yeah, I just want to say the overall improvements to this area that you've done that

050the the town has done are incredible. Um, you know, I'm not nostalgic for the uh flooding waters that used to have to traverse and then wonder if you had breaks. So, I I mean, and the mayhem really uh that happened at that corner. So, all of the improvements are really effective for uh infrastructure improvements. Great. Yes. So, now I'll be moving into the projects that um are upcoming. Yeah. not as sexy, but important. But um so these projects that that I'm that I'm highlighting today are either there's a contract awarded or there's at least a bid package because obviously there's a lot more uh contracts that are either coming up um but they're not that far yet and I I figured I wanted to discuss these first. So this first one we have is the

051highway department roof replacement. So the highway department roof has had numerous leaks uh for quite a while. So, um, now they're getting fixed. So, the contract was awarded to Demi Construction Systems Incorporated. Um, now the way that we're going to be approaching this is they're going to be insulating the roof with rigid insulation over the existing metal roof. This is going to save um, a lot of money. U, but it's also been used successfully by LKMA and, you know, um, other contractors in the past. Um, we'll speak about that. Um, so this is going to do two things. is it's going to also, you know, watertight the building, but it's also going to improve their ability to control the temperature inside of the building. So, so we'll be wrapping over uh the ridge insulation with

052EPDM. So, it's a synthetic rubber membrane. Uh the building will remain occupied. They won't have to relocate. They can just carry on business as usual while this is going on. Um LK Mlan has utilized this type of roof system on large projects in the past such as the town of Brook Haven's um recycling center as well. So um right now um it's currently in the process of building permits and contract documents. So we'll see when that is concluded. We'll get a schedule and see when we can start that. But um we would like to get it uh started in the summer. So I've discussed this project with um this project and also the lean too with superintendent highways and sanitations uh supervisor I think um Steve Lynch also and they're prep their staff is prepared

053and look looks forward to working with the contractor as far as the construction protocols and make sure that our departments can run efficiently still while there's major construction going on on their main building. And I think that'll be easily done. And I know we talked about that on this spec specific project. I think the next step I would like to target and look at is this an appropriate uh opportunity site for solar on the roof then too. I believe it's been designed for that. So those are next steps as we go into sounds like a good initiative. Mhm. Since you mentioned uh the leanto I'm sorry we'll look at the images first. So, these images basically just uh pinpoint where the damage is, but also um I want to highlight to that we're also going

054to be replacing the gutters on this and the ridge vent is also going to get replaced as well. So, it's not just the roof alone. There are some other components that will be replaced. Okay. Sanitation lean to this contract was awarded to Carter Malance Incorporated. This is the reconstruction of the Zang leanto. Um it's used to cover construction and demolition debris. It's uh mandated by DEC that it has to be covered. Um what we had there was technically standing but not really covering much. So um it it definitely needed to be rebuilt. So um it's going to be rebuilt um with concrete, steel I beams, uh chain link fence and metal roof covering. It's still an open building, but it's going to be a lot stronger than it was. So, hopefully it'll withstand weather a

055lot better as well. Well, it will. So, um I wish I had a picture. I should have taken a picture of the one that's existing so you can see what state it's in, but I know many of you have seen it. So, um again, we're in the process of finalizing building permit and contract documents for this project. Once we're completed with that, we'll be able to get a schedule. Yeah. I mean, I I this needed to happen and we we have to adhere to the DC guidelines. I I'm not going to lie, like the sticker shock on this one for a lean to 1.9 million was definitely there. I think it's something that as we kind of move forward with projects like this, just liazing with our engineers just be like, "Hey, do we do

056we need this amount of material?" Um, you know, because it we want this to last, don't get me wrong. It has to be built right. Um, but, you know, it's a lot of money. I mean, we're say, you know, 1.9 million for a lean too. It's a lot. Yeah. Yeah. We can always ask to try to value engineer the project, too. Um the the heaviness in machines are coming in and out of here needed a lot of concrete. I'm not exactly sure how much to it, but portions of it for the design um was to uh work more efficiently with the CND uh moving debris once instead of three times on there when you reload it. So that design came through discussions with Craig Thick and others there. So I think the overall design is

057something that's going to make the area work more efficiently in the in the end. I don't disagree with you Tom at all about the sticker shock and price. I'm getting more unfortunately used to that at times. Not as bad as during co during CO things were sticker shock was triple through the roof. Um sticker shock. Sticker shock. Um the dark side. So uh anyway for that one. Um I do say on this project also it's very heavily widely used and that uh once the contractors in place we'll get the construction uh timeline protocols into sanitation. Tom will work with them to make sure that the general public knows where to go and the staff members know how to direct individuals on there because they're going to need some space in that area then too. It's

058a congested location. Absolutely. I know these plans aren't exactly uh pleasing to the eyes. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. But um you get this is you know basically looking straight down upon it and you can see where the where the framing is and uh just imagine that with just the metal roof over top of it. Um so it's concrete bases and the chain link continues up from there. So things that can't fall out of it but but that up to the top and north of it that's where the loading correct it's hard to see. That's the uh um it's not really an apron. It's a drive up. So, it's a concrete base for the trucks to be able to drive up into there. Cuz how it works now, they go from lean to load it, take it

059out, unload it, load it again. So, there's four steps. So, this could be dense into one step. So, as far as staff hours and timing, it's going to be a lot less on there in one location than two. So, absolutely. Westlake dock repair. So, unfortunately, the only image I have of this is of Westlake, but so, um, currently the Westlake dock is a lot like, uh, Star Island used to look like. There's a lot of boards that are coming up. There's a lot of, um, timbers that are below that you can't see that are in disrepair. So, the goal of this is a restoration of the of the dock itself. So, it's going to be all in kind. Um, we're going to coordinate the best we can with the fishermen so that we're not in

060their way. And um therefore once we get all of our paperwork, you know, from the contractor and we're ready to start to talk about schedules, we'll know more about when we're going to start that. But like I said, we have to, you know, keep in mind working with the fishermen and their their schedules as well. So I've had a conversation with the town's harbor and dock committee on here. Uh the request was to do step bless you was to do this post laboring, which is where it's going to be. There is some damage to the north side of the dock. This stock originally was uh deed to the town of East Tampa by Suffach County. Oh, I think it was deed by for a dollar back in the day. Confirm that if anyone wants to

061write that. Um we reduc we replace the wear plating on this in the past. There's not as much damage to this one as was to Star Island. Um and we are making sure that all the wood is in place. Uh it's going to be uh power pedestals, water conduits on on there. Then two, once we get that construction time frame, I'll meet with uh the individuals that are slip holders here to uh to alert them to what the time frame are, working with marine patrol uh to try to find out where they can birth up as they come in and as that construction will go through. But um again, it's a town board's commitment to our shoreside fisheries infrastructure. I thank the talent board for moving on on this one uh at this time frame

062because there is damage and it's it's going to be probably a economy of scale during this um this bid process even though it's it's pricey but it's well worth it then and I thank the rest of my town board members for their support because there's a there's definitely a need for it at this at this location. Once this one is complete the town would will have now worked on and completed all three of our commercial docks, our recreational dock infrastructure. Uh, I think that's a lot of kudos to uh the former uh chief harbor master Ed Michaels and his long-term vision uh to capital uh projects uh to support uh our recreational and our commercial uh uh commercial um mariners there into and also all that. So, thank you. I just add fully support of

063this. Great to see this moving forward. Um you know Tenh Hall posit leaks. We spoke about this before. The contract was awarded to Austin Interiors. Um so as I spoke before is currently leaking down into our our legal team's office basically. So it's uh yeah to in order to prevent it from becoming a swimming pool uh we're going to have to remove the the current currently existing bricks. We're going to keep them aside and reuse them. But uh after we remove that basically underneath that is a bunch of sand that has to be removed. Underneath that is a membrane that is failing. So the drainage that brings the water down from the gutters comes right onto the patio there. It goes into the plaza and then it leaks directly down to their office. So unfortunately

064and we're concerned about mold as well when absolutely if it get the more it continues the more chance for black mold you get. So, um, this work involves removing the existing brick, replacing, uh, the existing membrane, and then we're going to be using the the brick again, putting it right back. So, we're in the process again of finalizing contract documents for this job. I'm very happy to see this happening for, you know, the offices that are down there. Um, it's been problematic. The only thing I would just kind of add about this area is that we've identified this in the past, this patio as a potential ADA entrance to the clerk's office. You know, obviously not in this scope, but further forward and, you know, when this goes back in, I want to make sure

065that that's still a possibility going forward. Okay. Right. And and we've already coordinated with the East Hampton Garden Club because they had that that garden there which has to be removed while the work is being done and then we're going to come back and replant. They're going to replant um around the perimeter of the clerk's office. Understood. Write that down. Thank you for that. Okay. Parson's blacksmith shop siding replacement. This contract was awarded to Ronald Web Bu builders. So, the existing vertical siding, so not the not the cedar shake, but the existing vertical siding is in very poor condition. Um, from the road, you can see that it's faded and it is pulling off, but especially if you walk around the back of the building, you'll see that it's actually cupping and and coming off

066in in pieces. So, um the siding will be replaced in kind along with associated mill work. Um the existing cedar shingle, as I said before, is is to remain. And uh we're currently awaiting for the building permits on this one. Um once we have that, then we can get a schedule for for Ronald Web. Great. Now, will that work's being done? Will we we be able to have demonstrations? Um do we know, Ian, is that going to be any kind of conflict? Uh I I don't anticipate I've been I've been in touch with Matt Jeda. The next time the shop is going to be open is on Saturday and so it's open once a month. The my my hope and it might be optimistic is that we can start after that date and finish before

067the next opening. Uh in any case, I don't think that the work itself would be prohibited from using the from access, but we're still trying to have it as clean as possible during the time that it's open. Absolutely. My my only comment here would be and I don't know what the parking plan is for when construction is taking place. This area is already problematic. Yes, it is. So, um, you know, anything that we do plan to do here, we just got to think how it interacts with farmers markets. Um, maybe reach out to PD for what their recommendation for parking is. And also with the with the contractor as well, I want to see what his staging area is going to look like and then we can we can kind of talk about a parking

068plan. Yeah. Make a side note off subject. Do you actually look where uh the Cedar Shake is to the right of the the the ramp there? There's a stone monument there. That stone monument was placed there in 1975 uh to commemorate the bsentennial of America in 1976. There's 26 of them placed around uh around Eastampton couple in Montalk. Uh that one's for the Parsons Black Shop. So in the future I'd like to talk to the board about about this and uh taking these up as far as part part about restoring those stones in advance of the 250th anniversary of America uh and where they might be letting people know that. But that is one of them in the pictures there if anyone's ever been wondering what they might be. Sorry. Useless trivia by David Lee.

069Awesome. Never. There's one in front of second house, too. Keep going. These are just another work session. Sorry. These are just the plans for the uh the Parson's blacksmith shop. Um there is two different um sizes of the uh the vertical lumber. There you have um 5/4 8 and then 3/48. 3/4 is the darker portion above on the top left there. Um and the uh 5/4 is uh down below. So glam building egress stairs as we spoke about before again as a a safety hazard. So it had to be completed had to be prioritized. Austin Interiors is completing this off of New York State contract. The fire escape was found in poor condition. um LKMA is working on this project for the construction of the stairs to replaced to be replaced in kind but not

070exactly the same footprint. So instead of uh the way it was before because they found that the rise was not correct in order to get achieve the correct rise as they come down it won't be a a straight ladder down it's actually come down and then turn out into the the parking area well not the parking area but where their work area is. So but um basically you have to bring it to code. It wasn't to code before. Now that it has to be repaired, they got to bring it to code. So again, we're awaiting permit and submittals for this kind. Okay. Anyone want to hear history about the land building? I do. I was just going to ask, David, just in case you were asking routine you was going to ask. The land building

071was a naval listening post and there was used to be two antenna towers on each side of it and they were listening not for German communicate during the world wars. They were listening for Japanese communique. So there's uh there's postcards and pictures out there of it because that area of Coastg Guard Beach with the life- saving station which is having its BB ceremony at 1:00. Listen to the leison on report. Also the marine museum which was a listening barracks and others and also the the dune hut down there. That's cool. There's another one. So that was all built by the coast guard and there's some really fascinating old pictures. Yeah. Thanks. Because I was wondering I thought maybe the town built that. No. No. But but there were there were two antenna towers there. Pretty

072neat history of the area. So there's there's a lot of military history. There's actually a wonderful book out here written by Henry Osmer's uh from Malk Historical Society uh called uh the Malttok Jialter. If anyone's really interested in getting back into the military history of of the area, it's a nice read and he's he's a great uh uh historian and writer too. The author was the author Henry Osmmers. Hugh King better watch his seat. You can work on the delivery, Dave, but you got the facts down. And then you had the plans for the uh the status. So this one um I'm I'm breaking my own rule here, but this one is not uh there was no contract awarded and there's no um bid package either, but we were talking about this and uh I

073know that uh since I've been here, I've been here two years and this is all we've been talking about with the town halls, the windows. So now we're really Oh my gosh. Yeah. So um right now LKMA is gonna come up with a plan to actually execute this. So obviously everybody knows that they're in poor condition and we had um heat, we're losing heat in the winter time, water intrusion, you you name it. So um yeah, so our plan is to actually um not replace these in kind because we can't do that, but we're actually going to revitalize the windows. We're going to have uh internal storms that are removable. Um so that's how we're going to address that. So it's not replacement of the windows. Not replacement. It's going to have to be which

074I think is an consistent with the agreement we have with Adelaide. Correct. And it's also very similar to what's in the Baker house then to which they have an internal uh storm windows and um it might be easier on the structure to do it that way too. I I my only question is when I mean this is just from building law but whenever you're doing your windows the advice is always to do your shingles at the same time. That's happening as well. Okay. So but this is going to have to be done in phases. So, if we do say um um the the east side, we're just going to do the east east side at a time, then we'll move into the next. The reason is because um to do this uh large scale, every

075window and every every side, it's going to be a lot of money that it was it was way over budget initially. So, it also be it also be challenging as far as uh the work within then too. So um you start start with the supervisor's office who want first of course you know well they are deteriorating uh in some of the windows particularly on the east side absolutely and also this then the trim would also get painted because we're we're due for that as well complete facade restoration nice so the windows will really be meaningful in terms of efficiency etc etc absolutely so that is all I have for you today I want Thank James Pink and also working with Steve O'Brien and Kevin Ahern and too um there's got to be ongoing right now

076nearly $55 million in projects uh and town infrastructure right now modernization of town projects preserving uh historical preservation out there uh uh providing recreational opportunities to individuals uh traffic safety coming measures on there all together all these projects are things that the town of East Hampton is artfully exe executing as far as within the budgetary constraints try to get the best project possible uh and doing it in a way that we are executing and providing for the residents. So the supervisor and the support are supported and I really thank you and your efforts to do that because the end result is u providing these necessary things for the town's residents and I hope they see that in what we're trying to do. Well, thank you very much. But you know, like you said before, it

077is a team effort. Definitely a team effort and I think those guys as well, Kevin and Steve, they help me out tremendously. So yeah, it's a good it's a lot of team effort and that is correct. You're exactly right. Appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks, James. Have a good day. Thank you. Okay, next up we have amendments to chapter 182 nature preserve with Scott Wilson and John Jill Nikki. Welcome Scott and John. John's gonna go through this. So, I just have a couple of words. You want to set us up? Tee it up for you. So, uh we came and presented the soundboard on May 6. Um with regard to uh code changes, uh chapter 182, that's a nature preserve section of the code. Um you know, the the code changes that we proposed, you know,

078the importance of the code has not changed. However, you know, over time, it's necessary to look at each section of code for potential um updating um technology changes, um new things that we discover about land management. And that's just uh this is a good opportunity to although we've been doing this for quite some time since 2011, working towards this update, it's just a good idea to go through uh section by section. So, we've worked with successor nature preserve committees uh for some time uh with their chairs and um again on May 6, we made a presentation and we went up point by point. We're here today specifically to talk about the few code changes or modifications to what we proposed to you. You asked and I think we delivered uh the things that you had

079asked for. We sat down with the nature reserve uh again and so while they had uh approved what we had originally proposed we sat down with the two chairs Michael Jordan and Rich and so what we're proposing now has already been approved again by that nature committee. So John's going to just go through the few changes that we made. There's there's not a lot just a few items. So um chair yeah not for you. Um, one of the um the first item that we we made an amendment to um was 182 uh 13 which if you have the draft I think is on page let me say I give you the page number page 8 um is the section that we added it's D which basically just provides for um permission to uh remove vegetation

080when it's deemed essential. to prevent the risk of um the spread of an infestation or a fire risk. And the idea was that it would be done pursuant to a plan that we developed with the natural resources department and approved by the town board by resolution after a public hearing. So there'll be plenty of opportunities for input with regard to the plan. And then um we address the concern related to ebikes in um section 18216 paragraph E which is on page where we added ebikes um a little typ but motor uh e- motorbikes without pedal assist because those are the ones that have a lot of torque in the motors and can do some some harm to the um to the trails. So, um if they're pedal assist, they're usually a bit gentle on the

081um the terrain. And then we also noted it in E, we we added assisted pedal. Ebikes are permitted. Um if they're just straight electric bikes, they they won't be. And in um item five, we we added the word authorized where it says hunting, trapping, and fishing. In accordance with town code, we make sure it's authorized hunting and fishing. the um there was an issue that uh we had with regard to um the harbor has had some issues with regard to authorized vehicles and we worked that out with him with the regard uh to that. His concerns we're going to address with the with signage. So he'll either need a a four-wheel drive permit or um in some cases might be a parking permit, but mostly probably be four-wheel drive for a lot of the situations

082that we're concerned about. and he's fine with that. So, it seems to address that concern as well. That's about it unless there's any questions. I mean, just on 18213, I know we'd had some back and forth. I I do think, you know, I've been thinking about this one because I'd previously recommended, you know, would we want to put anything in here about, you know, a declaration of emergency giving the town scope to clear as well. I mean, just thinking it through those situations as I see it most likely going to be related to fire and infestation in one format or another. So, I don't think we need it. I think it covers them um respectively. So I'm supporting that language. Okay. And I think there's if there's a declaration of emergency by the supervisor then

083you have some override. Yeah. It would just be consistency between the two. Yeah. Okay. Any questions for I'm supportive of all all the changes and I want to thank John and Scott and we had one conversation about this and thank the nature preserve committee for bringing the suggestions to us in the first place. I think it's important that we keep our code up to date and as relevant as possible for for modern times, but then after our discussion, you guys quickly addressed all of the board comments and came back with these revisions. And so I I thank you for that and I I support all of them. I support them as well. And so and so do I. And so I think uh next steps here is that we will notice this for public hearing

084sometime in July. Yeah, I was going to bring that up because we don't we only have um the we only had the one meeting in June. So I know July uh I believe it's July 3rd quite a few public hearings. So maybe we do it at the second one in July. Notice it for the second one in July. No problem. This has been a slow burn uh to get to this point. But I think it's great and I think Ian just mentioned it as that modernization aspect of it. The town's looking the code in multiple different locations. We just did it today for planning here in aspects through processes and I that's the supervisor looking uh to move these things forward and to where we are right now in 2025. Uh, so I appreciate that

085and I echo exactly what Ian and the rest of the board members said to you, John, and to you specifically, Scott, for continue to maintain your your focus on this aspect, Scott, because I'm looking straight at you. I know you're hiding behind over there a little bit, too. Uh, but you you really are the protector of this this chapter of the code with you and your land stewards, and that's not lost on any of us up here. Thank you. I think just one thing on the infestation piece and I think this is you know perhaps your department can leers with natural resources but I do think it'd be helpful for us as a town board and also for the public to have just an update on invasive species um not just on the nature preserve

086committees but across the town and what management practices are potentially out there that can be used to address some of these things like prevailance of Japanese notweed out there you know being one of many it it's something that honestly is be becoming a threat Um and so how we address that going forward I think is you know would be helpful and what what ideas we're looking to you know attack or address that issue on nature preserve um but natural resource recommendation would be a nice next step to follow this up maybe we bring back the state of the forest yeah and we can add that into a little bit more in the next couple months if you want to see that then too we coordinate with natural resources and yeah particularly if you want recommendations

087on how to handle it. Yeah, I think for the public I think you know I mean you know in people's property like h how what's the effective what's considered the most effective way to address some of these species? Great. Thank you. Thank you both. Thank you. Okay. So our last topic is the amendment to chapter 185 noise. And Ian, this is something you had brought forward. Jake I think Jay's gonna Jake's gonna introduce it. Um, I just want to thank his his office and Nancy Marshall in particular who helped um turn this around and I'll I'll talk a bit after Jake introduces the the legal language. Sounds good. Good afternoon. Now I get to play Nancy Marshall. And unfortunately Nancy can't be here because of an unfortunate accident but she worked hard on this and

088I discussed this with her and Ian and what we have done is created an exception for generators when there is a power outage in that the noise that they make will not be held to the nighttime standards and instead Instead, when there's a power outage, an a generator will be held to the daytime standards as outlined in 1853. Yeah. So, that Thanks, Jake. I mean, it's a it's a fairly simple fix, but I think it's important as we modernize and update the code that we have really good legal advice to make sure we're doing exactly what we intend. And I think that that's the case here. And and the reason I I brought this up is because I think during a power outage, we don't want to wave all all noise standards. We have, you

089know, stringent noise standards to protect residential neighborhoods and neighborhoods in general. And I think that that's important. But in the case of a power outage, when an emergency generator was being used to, you know, for an emergency need, I think it's appropriate to go to the daytime standards. It would be a very rare event hopefully. Um, and what happens, I think, when people are installing these is sometimes you have to engineer them and and have sound attenuation, which is a good idea to make sure that we meet our noise limits. But in the case of an actual emergency overnight, I think it's appropriate to to revert back to the daytime standards so that people can keep their food cold or their medicine and whatever else they need. Um, and I think it will lead to

090less unnecessary um, engineering and construction around generators. Yeah. And we talked also about gas stations, for instance. Yeah. Yeah. And I and I first saw this frankly when I was on the planning board and we would based on our code we'd have to hold people to those nighttime standards even though generator would never be used unless it was an actual emergency or a power outage. And and to me the balance of sort of using common sense of what we mean to say there uh we were a little bit off. And so you know I think people should be able to pump gas at night and if you're constrained and can't meet those nighttime standards but could meet the daytime standards that's a very good trade-off to make. The the only slight problem I see with

091this is that you know one of the recommendations for all generators is you need to test run them you know pretty frequently monthly if not bi-weekly and so is there scope in this code that people are not going to get into trouble if say on the weekend they're going to run their generator for 10 minutes you know but it does now exceed the noise levels no it's a really good point Tom and one that we considered I I think the way that the code is written it will just have those tests even when it's being tested it has to be below the threshold control of our noise standards and based on this language they'll have to do that during the day because if they do it at night it wouldn't be during a power outage

092but it's a very good point. We don't want to give again we don't want to wave all noise standards because we we want to keep you know neighborhoods quiet. Um but only in the case of a power outage would they be able to then go just to the the daytime standards. Yeah. I think if we uh people that I talk to that have generators and do those tests, they're generally not done at night because it also disturbs the homeowner. Um, so they're generally done at in the daytime morning and it would still be illegal to do it at night. So we're again I think it's important that we try to modernize and address situations to make them, you know, sensible but also make sure we're we're keeping the protections that the original code was intended

093to do. It's a great balance. Well, thank you. Thank you, Jake. And again, I do want to thank Nancy Marshall. She was very very quick turnaround and and um Jake as well for for getting this on the agenda. which are speedy and healthy recovery too. Yes. Yes. Thank you. All right. So, next steps on this Ian, this is the uh uh public hearing code amendment. Uh so, this will have to go to, you know, the planning um department and the planning board. I believe they get chapter 185. They only got 255. There you go. So, yeah, then we'll just go right to a public hearing. Mhm. I mean obviously once if it we adopt it then it has we'll send them a memo so that they're the planning board is aware that this has gone

094into effect. Yeah. So if there's board support I would like to keep it moving for adoption. Absolutely support. It makes sense. Yeah. Okay. So that's a wrap on our topics. So we're up to liaison reports. Tom. Thank you madam supervisor. Uh the amigance incident advisory committee met last night. Uh Rona chair our chair was out. She's recovering from surgery. Um the discussion we had there last night resolved around a few key topics. Um just an update for them on the community resource planning that we had previously discussed. I updated where we're at with that. Um it's right now with the attorney's office kind of being relooked at. Uh we also talked through the lighting project and that will be coming forward for a work session. Um I've reached out to Matt Jed Licker and others

095just to kind of have them on the schedule to come in and just talk through. Um we we basically there there's the existing debt for the lighting district was 16,000 to bring on um LKMA to you know look through the new design proposal. It would require the debt to be increased to 72,000. So to want to have a talk through of that um to give the public awareness. Uh additional discussion around Cranberry Hall Road Bridge continues to be a source of major frustration. You know really the um did this lies in Albany. You know obviously the capital plan was approved by Albany. how and where exactly Cranberry Hall Road Bridge fits on there is is kind of um you somewhat unclear, but um we do believe that's moving forward. You know, one thing that did

096come up last night, which I think is a good concept, and David, I think I'll reach out to you and Steve on this, is that as that bridge is closed before the construction of the bridge does take place, Cranberry Hall Road itself is got some serious um issues that need addressing. Um so perhaps that road might be one that we want to address before we kind of start work on the bridge. Um, it um, we continue to roll out open gov. I have a meeting with the IT director next Friday. I've asked colleagues for feedback on any issues that we may be facing. I also go to the public. You know, anything you're seeing or any challenges you're having with open gov, do feel free to reach out to my office or IT and we

097will look to address those as we move forward. Um you know one thing that you know as we're digging into all the databases that support all this be it you know different departments have different databases for things but you know one thing that I really did find which is is a challenge is for the existing parcels in the town what the recorded square footage is and there does not at this point in time see a fully definitive record on that. So that's something that I would like to kind of work with. I I know that there's different organizations out there that can do this remotely. Um but if we're going to have an effective IT system, the databases on which it's built have to be solid and you know so making sure that is there

098is key. Um human services, I have a meeting this Friday with the director of human services to discuss um recent issues around um that were raised regarding adult care. So I will report back on that. Um sanitation, just a reminder to the public um if we could bring up the flower for this would be great. Saturday, June 14th, this weekend, 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Springs Fireplace location only, there is the stop day. Uh you can bring in any kind of toxic materials that are listed on the screen here and dispose of those. Uh this is the best way to address this. We don't want these going down the drain impacting our water source. Um please take advantage of this. It is the most effective way to address this. Um ADU implementation, we're

099meeting on Thursday uh to review the possible edits. um also discussing um potential code change to exclude ADUs from the GFA restrictions and we'll look to have a work session on that early next month. Um East End fire commissioners uh been in contact with the commissioners and the chiefs um just to get feedback on any fire roads in their districts that they have concerns about. I met with the um director of public works with regard to this. As we receive that feedback from the fire districts, I will then bring uh resolutions for any repairs that are urgent that need doing and they will be reviewed accordingly by the director of public works. Um Eastampton youth task force um as I said uh in my last leism report um legislator wel has reached out to me

100regarding the possibility of starting a youth government in this area. Um, I reached out to Assemblyman Shiovani on this as well and we've actually had our first few students from the high school who are looking to get involved with this. So, I'll continue to give updates on that. Um, the arts council committee, we could possibly bring up this flyer. Um, actually, no, I didn't get sent this fly, but artists in Paradise. um June 12th, 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at LTV Studios. There is a presentation by the Arts Council of East Hampton um on the art scene in in the town at this point and it's discussing uh what are measures that can be taken both by the public and the private sectors to help support artists uh thrive in our community. wildlife management uh committee.

101We are provisionally looking to do on f Friday the 20th at 9:00 a.m. a walkthrough of the Grassy Hollow Preserve. Uh this is an area that has been fenced off to examine um what the impact of deer is um across our ecosystems. We'll be walking through that area with the wildlife committee to kind of assess, you know, how that ecosystem works. That's the deer exlosure. Exactly. And and fun fact, there's actually another one of those 1976 markers right there. Oh, good. I will take a photograph and bring it back. There we go. You all know um emergency preparedness. If we could just bring up the that the next fly, Jason, be great. Um thank you, Madam Supervisor, for coordinating this. Uh June 16th, 6:30 p.m. at East Hampton Town Hall. Uh we've been advertising this.

102We have our emergency preparedness night where we're going to be fortunate enough to have uh Suffach County Fire and Rescue Emergency Services, the American Red Cross come out. I know the public's reached out to me with numerous questions as to what their capabilities are and what our expectations can be. So, if you can, please do make it to that meeting um you know, and hear what they have to say. Uh this will also be recorded. Um the purpose of that is that as we do kind of face any future emergencies, we can replay this meeting to kind of keep that information relevant to the town residents. And can I add to that? So because I was going to cover this too in the my leazison report. So um it is going to be streaming live

103on LTV. So both on channel 22 and on YouTube. Uh we've posted it on the social media and town website. I've sent it to the libraries. Uh as you can see, the Montalk library was so kind to make copies that they're going to distribute. Uh, I've sent it to all the school districts. I heard back immediately from Adam Fine. It's going out to parents today in East Hampton. Uh, human resources has a list of seniors that use the program as well as doctor's offices and the clergy. That went out today. And I I asked that all board members send it out to all of their committees. And David, I was going to see if we could send it to Ocean Rescue and Hampton Lifeguard Association. Sure. and see if they would post it on their

104social media to get the word out um so that uh we can have not everyone's going to come in person. We're going to hopefully have quite a few people turning tuning in to uh we're so fortunate to have LTV be able to do this for us live. Have we received a digital copy of that uh flyer? Yes, you did. You got it uh Patrick sent out a press release uh yesterday afternoon just before 3. So, all board members should have the press release and the flyer. Thanks. That's everything for my update. Great. Thank you. Um, I want to let everyone know of uh pickle ball changes once again that we have at the Mtok Playhouse in which for the month of June on the weekends for Saturday and Sundays, they will be uh pickle ball

105play will be restricted to resident uh east town resident uh uh play only during the week time. There will be play for all individuals that want to come out to the M talk playhouse, but on Saturdays and Sundays through the month of June, the pilot program this see is only have resident only pickle ball play. Um we mentioned uh two two changes in highway uh department that the superintendent of highways have done intersection change. This one was one at um uh I believe is northwest old northwest road Steven Hans path Cedar Street that confluence intersection there. Another one that recently has come up and maybe Kathy if you might want to bring this to your CAC as one at the terminus of Floyd Street and Aabonic there. Uh I know we did some changes there

106to a negative 45 degree intersection but we might want to bring up that area because of some of the property line interactions that we have over there. Also then too uh also uh Steve Lynch has recently installed rumble strips uh as a request of residents to try to do as a as a attempt at traffic calming around the spring school on Old Stone Highway then too. Uh he's going to see the effectiveness of that then too, but that was in response to um residents concerns. Um, want to let everyone know that we have some memorial benches that are uh are being removed because due to damage and that the town's um bench policy if they're beyond repairs uh and they can't be done repairs and structurally done, they will be removed also then too. Um,

107and please contact my office if you have any questions on that or also would like to donate a memorial bench. But there's a couple benches out there past their useful life if I want to say. Uh that goes into uh some of the town's uh beautifification projects. There will be upcoming beautifification projects. We recently done a couple in uh in M talk and planting a couple new trees. We're going to do some masonary work and some brick work uh as the town's uh uh call Mason is going to be coming out to this location. Also some others in the town with some some sidewalk work through the through the highway department which is another part of the town's capital uh the capital budget that we do. The town just doesn't maintain it just for town

108res. They maintain our highways and our sidewalks for all residents of the town of East Hampton. And we are actually the only municipality that has to maintain our sanitation department which is very expensive to do and it takes a large budget to to do that for all of town residents. But talking about beautifification, downtown Montalk looks beautiful with the lush plantings and the and the flowers that are hang hanging from the light poles. Yeah, the Monttok Village Association uh assist us with that. Um they also have their greenery for the scenery party upcoming this week. Tickets are available. Please go to their website for that also. Uh and while I'm giving a plug, I'll give one right here on mine also to another one that was for the Montalk Village Association. I want to thank

109them and specifically Lisa Valchek I believe is the new president for that for all their efforts community members uh over the time and also the storefront owners of the businesses of Montalk and specifically to town uh staff led by Steve O'Brien uh and Paul Columbbo also one of our labor crew leaders who they're doing a wonderful job in downtown Montalk and all all and everywhere also the AVIS assist us uh in Ambiganza uh even in Eastampton village with the LVIS and too it takes a community to make the community beautiful. So, I thank all the entities that put time and effort into it. We have CCUM that does many of our litter litter pickups, also the historical societies. It takes it it takes a it takes a large amount of people to make our villages

110look great then too. So, we s we enjoy working with all of our uh partners out there. Um this Friday at the Amigansza life saving station uh is a is the June 13th 6 p.m. is the Nazi sabatar landing event. This com commemorates an intriguing and unresolved question of the event. The amigga life saving station invites you to an evening and readings from the star letters the government and the FBI and speculation of what really took place. That's 6 p.m. at the life saving station. And on June 14th, which is Saturday, uh we invite everyone uh at 1 pm to uh the BB uh Mlen surfbo uh boat christening. The BB Mlelen surf boat was more refined version of the BB surf boat. It was developed jointly by Frederick BB and Lieutenant Charles Mlelen of

111the United States Revenue Cutter Service. Both the BB and the BB Mlen surfboard surf boats were built between 1879 and 1918 at the BB boat shop in Greenport. Uh the life-saving service has on loan uh from the National Park Service the last and only BB boat in America and it was on one list to be one of the 10 most important wooden boats in America still left and it was used in New Shorum which is New Shore Block Island at the time. uh this the slightly smaller replica boat built by Bobby Stal from Wolford, North Carolina where my parents are at times uh can be taken out of the water and I look forward to taking on the water with them at one time. Uh so that's coming this coming uh Saturday at the life

112saving station. That's 1 p.m. That's at 1 p.m. then to all are invited to that. With that, that's all I have and I thank everyone everyone for their time and effort today. Thanks David Kate. Yes, thank you. Last Thursday I attended the Picconic estuary partnership summit in Riverhead. Uh a topic uh on at the summit was how to increase incentive for living shorelines. Um actually uh the idea of increas incentives for folks trying to do the right thing uh came to mind and uh it was a very robust discussion. There was a presentation by a group in Delaware where uh living shorelines uh and the incentives are already in place. I have extensive notes on that to share with my colleagues. Um also um it gave me an opportunity to speak with uh town board

113members from neighboring municipalities Southampton uh and Southold and uh we had a wonderful exchange of ideas on challenges that we all face. Uh Brian Frank uh the assistant planning director was invited to speak at the summit as a panelist and he did an excellent job uh at that with colleagues from across the uh the the estuary towns. Uh one note was uh the uh um the acknowledgement of East Hampton's local waterfront uh revitalization plan our LWRP. We are one of two towns that in the estuary that have it. Um, and there were calls uh south and south hold and I think Brook Haven has a a portion of one but not one. And there was a call for uh uh municipalities to avail of grants that are available to create an LWRP. Uh the importance

114of which uh for protection for our coastal areas cannot be uh um denied. um and also um for coastal protection. And another important aspect that we've availed of is the uh uh grant opportunities for the municipalities that open up because you have an LWRP in place. Um and that is uh one of the reasons why we received the $600,000 coastal uh resiliency grant from MTalk. And in that grant, um, part of that grant, uh, uh, a large part of that grant is to develop, um, modern building codes, um, and also a recovery plan for post disaster. and not immed the immediiacy of of emergency preparedness for the first days of uh the recovery after disaster, but for the long-term plans to get our uh businesses and residents back in their homes and the businesses up

115and running as soon as humanly possible. And some of the ideas we're exploring is um to have um pre-approved site plans available uh to a certain extent to shorten the recovery process. I've been following um the um recovery of Fort Myers Beach uh from Ian, not you, Hurricane Ian, uh which really uh is a learning model uh for all the municipalities that that face uh those same challenges. Um I also uh there was no Wayne Scott CAC um meeting on Saturday. It had to be cancelled. Uh speaking of the grant, uh the RFP period for the consultants for that $600,000 grant is closing and uh we'll be looking at uh the reviewing committee will be up and running to uh select a uh contractor. Um the ditch plains dune project uh the public notice requirement

116from the department of environmental conservation from the state has been fulfilled with the public notice in the last Thursday's edition of the East Hampton Star. Um so that process is moving forward as I've stated before that application has been deemed complete by the DEEC and we just need to go through the public comment process etc. Um, and if you'd like to make public comments, you can go to the New York State DEEC's website and find uh comments to make there. You know, we should probably post that on social media. I think that would be a great idea. Um, I had uh one of the outcomes also going back to the estuary summit was a a conversation about the evolution of town codes and how it happens. That also was a topic that came up at

117an internal meeting that I had with the director of planning, Tina uh Brian, the assistant director, and Charlie Collins and Alexa Alex Veio from the um town attorney's office. And the the conversation that we were having is uh code resi revisions. We, you know, there's this terminology called lowhanging fruit where you are looking to just correct inconsistencies in the town code where it says one thing in in one area and it contradicts itself in in another chapter. So, we have a a list of those that the planners have been gathering and they're going to work out bringing that as a uh uh for for uh the town board to consider perhaps going to public hearing and just modernizing those little sections. But there's an overall discussion that happened in that meeting and also one is

118that uh uh one exchange that I had with the electeds from Southhold about a hiring a consultant to not take the code and pieces and we've heard a lot of that today. We need to update this section, we need to change this section, but actually look at it holistically and come up with a suite of updates. And that that is an idea that I'd like to bring forward in more detail to my colleagues on the board for consideration. Um I think we may be at that point in time with uh tidying up things and also I know that usage uses allowed uses haven't been updated forever. So for example, uh paddle board business is not listed as appropriate use in our town code and that leads to a lot of maneuvering and fi trying to

119find an associated um use. Um I are you going to talk about the pride parade? No, I wasn't it wasn't on my list. We were Kathy and I watched the pride parade on Saturday. Um it was a deluge. Uh, we left uh rain gear in the car cuz my not very smart phone said it was only going to be 15 chance% chance of rain. The spirit wasn't dampened by the rain. Um, and uh, it was a really uh, wonderful event as usual. Um, I also met with Len Green from Re. He's also on the town sustainability committee. Um, we talked about um, uh, getting together with some of these groups that pro promote sustainable landscaping and updating or creating a page in our website that would be user friendly for folks to be able with

120illustrations and and you spoke about this as well. Uh we have a extensive list for native plant plantings on our natural resources website but it just lists the names of them and have a more user interactive userfriendly web page created with help from groups like perfect earth change Hampton to help uh communicate uh in a deeper way the ability of what's happening with uh with new sustainability ideas for landscaping to reduce costs use of pestic picides um and uh create pathways for our pollinators across town. So, I'm looking forward to having a meeting. I'm sending in an invitation to all these groups to have a meeting on ideas on what we should have on a website to help promote um the sustainable landscaping. And I believe, let me just take a look. I think that

121is all I have. Okay. Hey, egg advisory committee will meet this Thursday at 5:00 p.m. at uh 300 Panigo Place, uh sweet 111A, the town's newish um conference room there. And that'll be a fairly regular meeting on the second Thursday at 5:00 p.m. So, if any members of the public want to join, that's where we'll be. Uh the main topic of conversation will be uh discussion of a site plan changes and specifically comments that that the planning department put together. And I want to I think I mentioned this last time, but I want to extend another thank you to Tina Lagaren and Chris Stecker for very thoughtfully going through um requests the A committee had made and putting a planning perspective on it. And I look forward to that discussion uh between the committee and

122and the planners. Um the Parson's Blacksmith Shop, we spoke about it a couple times. We spoke already today, but they will be open on June 14th, this Saturday. Um it roughly coincides with the farmers markets time. uh maybe a little bit later 10 to 1 or two depending on what the traffic is like. Uh I I want to thank the Springs Historical Society. They've done such a wonderful job in my my short time on the town board. Uh I was part of a cleanup last year or or went to to help out a little bit and they really transformed that place and made it a a lovely place to visit. It's a very cool building and I think everybody should take advantage on the the once a month Saturdays when it's open and the forge

123is running. I think Mitch Yates is going to be the um the blacksmith's on duty this Saturday and he also has a wealth of knowledge about springs in general and uh the blacksmith shop in particular. Um I also want to thank Steve O'Brien. There were a couple of windows that were broken in um that were damaged in the Parsons blacksmith shop and Steve and the buildings and grounds crew uh repaired them. Uh, I do want to note that some of those other windows are are not as in as bad a shape, but I'd like to look at putting that maybe in the capital plan for next year or getting those repaired um before they they degrade. Uh, as we mentioned, the siding is going to be done, and I think at that point, if the

124siding is complete and we do this windows, that that building will be in very very good shape and um hopefully ready for more visitors and uh and more use. Speaking of historic windows, we mentioned town hall as well. The Springs Library uh has historic windows, and one thing I I've learned in my time in the town board is that historic windows are beautiful and have a lot of character, but are difficult to maintain. The Springs Library also has a few that are are fairly uh badly damaged. We do have a budget line in the capital plan for this year to um to help repair or restore those. And I look forward to hopefully addressing the three that are in really rough shape as part of coordination with the town hall u project. Old Stone Covert.

125I was going to mention uh James mentioned that earlier. I think it looks beautiful and it's one of those projects that you always expect to hear positive and negative reviews. I've really only heard positive reviews and it's a fairly significant change with the Fragmite opening up that viewscape. Um I think it looks great. And to Cathy's earlier point, I hope that means that we can start to address, you know, removing Fragmite near the bridge and in other areas to open up the Vista even more. Of course, things aren't as simple as they sometimes, you know, seem like they ought to be, and there will be permits and um planning involved with that, but but I'd like to talk about addressing the Fragmitey there and other places in ways that maybe aren't as the Culvert project

126was a very intensive excavation and quite expensive. Um, I think there's ways, I know Dave has investigated this and I've spoken with natural resources a little bit uh to cut and do maybe less invasive um techniques to also reduce the the fragmight in the area. Um, while we're on the subject of of historic springs, you know, it came up today the parking issues and safety issues. I hear about that a lot from SpringC historical society and just members of the public. I I would like to continue to look at um solutions how we can accommodate more parking there in a safe way that still respects the historic beauty and um not not super invasive. Kathy had a great idea and we've spoken about this before on School Street and being able to access it either

127through the bridge or across the seemingly wider bridge now. Um and I think there's other places we can maybe absorb cars in the area without a huge impact and make that safer for um the lovely events that happen. A number of years ago, we worked with um an engineer to look at if there was possibility for parking behind the library. Well, since since you mentioned that, yeah, I don't I didn't want to get, you know, over in front of my skis, but that is something I've heard about. I've heard um people who are part of that talk about it and I've looked at the area and would like to investigate the viability of that. So, I'd like to rekindle that. Again, I think the balance is going to be how to accommodate cars in a

128a non-invasive way that protects sort of the historic character and also the safety because parking um is an issue there and there's a lot of great things to see and I think we want to encourage people to use that space um but do it in a safe way. So yeah, thank you for mentioning that Kathy and I know there's been some outreach to the chief about folks wanting to look at Parson's Place as being a oneway, but that is something that is not in supported because this school parents using it 5 days a week, you know, 180 days a year and they and that it can't be done on a Saturday morning only basis. It causes too much confusion. I know that there was some discussion there. There was discussion and I I I heard

129from the chief on that and I also replied directly to the to to some people who reached out to me and I said the same thing that I understand the concern. Everybody recognizes parking and safety concerns there, but it just isn't possible and maybe not even a safety improvement to change a street traffic pattern for one day a week. So, um I don't think that's the ultimate solution, but I do I I appreciate people reaching out to me, reaching out to the chief, recognizing an issue, and let's work to to make it better. um you know not all ideas are going to pan out but it doesn't mean that we don't try and I think that um hopefully in the coming um months and years we will improve the situation. Um lastly the property management

130committee will meet next Wednesday um at town hall in the main meeting room. The main topics of conversations will be the Parson's Dodge homestead next steps. Um we had a public hearing about the um the management plan which is great and now I think we as a board need to decide and that that committee will advise us um what the next steps are. Do we restore the structures and then go out to um RFP for a license? Do we go out to RFP so we know who the end user will be to help guide us in that restoration? And I don't know the answer to that qu those questions but um would like to keep that moving. It's a great property. I think uh Scott Wilson and the property management committee did a great job

131with the management plan. Um and I just want to make sure we we we maintain that momentum. The other topic of conversation will be the Osborne Homestead management plan. Uh that of course is the property at 66 Main Street in Wayne Scott that that everybody who's lives in Eastampton or visited loves and it's just the iconic Wayne Scott. Um we're working on the management plan that involved the property there, the pond, the three structures. That is not as far along as Parson's um Dodge property, but uh equally important and look forward to to continuing that along as well. Oh, and one last thing actually. I I there's a salt march restoration project that's being contemplated and Brian Frank from the planning department and Morgan um Slater have been working on that and um they briefed

132me on a meeting they had with other entities and it's really really interesting you know with sea level rise and and changes out there. There are some it's a very sensitive environmental area and a project that actually seems like we might be able to move forward on that's not incredibly expensive. I don't think we're ready to to do anything in particular yet, but I was really enlightening to hear the history there um and and some of the ideas. So, at some point, I would hope to um when it's a little bit farther along to bring that maybe even to a work session because I think it involves um as I said, improving the environmental conditions, but also it's one of those unique things uh to East Hampton where I I learned a ton about the

133history there um that I had no idea about and I think a lot of other people would be um interested in. Dave's probably got a million stories about the first person to to work on them, but I I don't have that yet. But but do you want to talk about the corduroy paths? I can help you out with the birds. If you like salt mar sparrow, this all Yeah, that's had to mention it. That's all the That's all that I have. So, thank you. All right. Thank you, Ian. So, I just wanted to uh let folks know about the weekend uh activity for our East Hampton Town Police Department. There were 185 calls for service, two arrests, one was a DWI. There were six residential noise complaints, one commercial noise complaint that that did not

134receive a violation, two accidents, 12 aided cases, uh, three summones were issued for town ordinance, 56 traffic tickets, and there were two special events, uh, the mighty Montalk triathlon and the blessing of the fleet, and there were no issues. Um, I don't know if board members know, but I was appointed to the Suffach County Water Quality Restoration Board of Trustees. That's with the um the tax that everybody voted on. Uh, is that was that last year? I think it was last year. Yeah. And that's a 21 person board and I was appointed representing the PCI estuary.
