Thank you. Thank you. Okay. Clerk, do we have any correspondence and reports? Yes, we did receive two letters. One from Alan Fishbane and one from Cliff Baldwin in reference to the Vale Levitt Music Hall. They can be found on the agenda. Under reports, we have the 2024 Annual Audited Financial Report for the Riverhead IDA and the Riverhead IDA Economic Job Development Court that was filed with us. We have the tax report. We have the tax receiver total tax collection as of April 16th at $103,778,903.18. On April 24th at $104,292,526.25. And as of May 1st, $105,900,400.42. We also received the building department report. The building department monthly report for April at $87,483. That concludes reports. I just want to let everybody know that my Deputy Town Clerk Vanessa LeCann is sitting with me today. She wants to get used to the idea in case I'm not here how we do things here. So we welcome her here as well. You'll be lucky if you have your job back if she takes over for you. Yeah. True. Don't think I don't think that. Okay. We have on today's menu we have five, six public hearings it looks like. So we're going to get started with that. Can I just? Oh, you want to do the announcements now? Okay. Go ahead. Oh, you want to do them later? I was going to do them at the end, but it doesn't matter to me. Go ahead. I just didn't want it to be forgotten. Okay. So we'll do it at the end. Let's do it before I do forget. Okay. Okay. A couple quick announcements. One. We're going to have a meeting with the head water district online portal. You can now view your account online with the option to register and pay your bill online and also go paperless by filling out that request. So that's up and running. You can pay your water bill online now. We're getting there slowly but surely, folks, with our IT proudness. And soon you're going to be able to do a lot more once we get the new website up and running also. So we're proud to say that that is done. Sunday, May 11th, is Mother's Day. So don't forget our moms and grandmoms and aunts and sisters and everybody else that has played a role of mom in your life. And with that, I'm going to turn it over to Councilwoman Waskie about the litter day. Yes. Thank you, Supervisor. This past Saturday we had our spring litter cleanup, which is put on by the Anti-Litter Committee, chaired by Deborah Wetzel. And I'd like to thank all of the members of the community. We had a lot of people that came out to do the cleanup. Everybody was doing their part. We had young and old, and everybody had a great day. And I know that Councilwoman Merrifield wished that she was able to be there, but she did a cleanup out in Wading River with the Wading River Shoreham Chamber. So thank you for doing that. Thank you. And that put Wading River part of the litter. the litter cleanup. Also, just Troop 94 cleaned up Police Officers Memorial Park. So thank you as well to Troop 94 from Wading River as well. They did a great job. And the charter school has been cleaning up down at some of the beaches, Iron Pier Beach. So everybody's kind of chipping in and doing a great job. We had Bruce Tria from WRIV was with us all morning, and we were able to discuss all the great things that are going on in Riverhead. And there were so many things. It was a filled day on Saturday and Sunday with good things going on in the town. So it was wonderful to be able to discuss that on the air. So thank you. Excellent. Thank you. Okay, moving on to public hearings. Our first public hearing is scheduled for 205. It is now 209. Public hearing, Chapter 231, Section 7, Definitions. All right. So this is relatively straightforward. Code amendment just adding some definitions to the fire prevention chapter of the town code for bonfires, recreational fire, definition for burn permit, bonfire permit, fire extinguishing source, unapproved combustible fuels, and hazardous materials.

Okay. Any on the board? Anybody have any questions regarding the definitions? No. Nope. Anybody from the public wishing to comment on any of the definitions? Anybody online wishing to comment on definitions? Nobody online? Okay. All right. At this time, we'll close the public hearing, keep it open for written comment for 10 days, which will put us somewhere around 15th or 16th, May 16th. Okay. [transcription gap] Well, hearing is closed. Next public hearing we have is Chapter 231-24, Interference. And again, I will turn it over to Councilor Howard. All right. Thank you. So this one came up through incidents with the fire marshal and with the local fire departments where after the fire alarm went off, it was being reset. It shouldn't really be reset until there's a fire. Okay. All right. So this requires a sign that the fire marshal's office here will approve, basically stating that the fire alarm won't be reset without approval of the responding chief or without the fire chief set forth above. Okay. Pretty straightforward. Any questions, board? No. No. Anybody from the public? Oh, go ahead. No, just I think it's a great thing. I appreciate. I appreciate the fact that our fire commissioner, Andrew Smith, really looking into these, trying to clean up. It helps our volunteers. There's too often that we respond to a storefront commercial facility, and they've already turned it off. And it just, it leaves us in this unknown walking path of trying to cover all the ground, determining what went off, what caused it, and how it resulted. So there's a great way. And I think all our volunteers appreciate all the work that's being done by a fire marshal's office just to kind of set some rules and bounds. Okay. All right. [transcription gap] All right. [transcription gap] All right. All right. able to exit a scene more quickly when we're able to definitively know where the problem is. So thank you, Fire Marshal. If we entered our Fire Marshals into the Fire Marshal Olympics, we'd have a gold medal. We've got a great group of guys and girls and men and women in the office that do a fantastic job. Keep up the good work, Andrew. Excellent. Okay, next public hearing scheduled for 2-15. It is now 2-12. So we can maybe, Councilman Kern, sing for a little bit. We have to wait three minutes. We could, but we'd like the audience to stay here and not leave. You don't want more people to show up? Okay, well, it's 2-13, and the public hearing is on Chapter 231-14, Reimbursement. All right, so this one just expands on the reimbursement for hazardous material responses to a location, and it includes a lithium-ion batteries as the response, whatever response is sent to a location for a coal related to fire arising from lithium-ion batteries will require reimbursement to the town. Okay. For using the blanket and such? Yes. Yes, that's what it refers to in here. Correct. Yeah. So, battery installation. Yeah. Andrew, did I get everything on that?

Sure. Yeah, at least for a minute.

So, we've always had this in our code for reimbursement hazardous materials events. We just recently were trying to update it to get with the times. We got a lot of battery energy storage applications, EV car fires is what the fire service is dealing with. I know the local fire departments have bought some equipment, one-time use kind of stuff. So, we're looking the electric vehicle fire, they use a fire blanket, put the fire out, we can get reimbursement to replace their equipment. So, that's kind of the intent, why we want to change the code. Thank you. Hope that kind of helps out a little bit. What do those blankets go for? They're a couple thousand dollars. They are that expensive. Yeah. They're about three grand. Okay. All right. Very good. Thank you, sir. In case I get hot. Okay. Anybody from the public to comment on that? Board? Nobody online? Okay. We will close that public hearing and keep it open for written comment until May 16th also. Good. Good. Next public hearing is on May 16th. Okay. Okay. Okay. Second public hearing is scheduled for 2-20. It is now 2-15. Public hearing Chapter 231-38, flammable. All right. So, this applies to gas stations. I just required, and this is something that was previously in the code. At some point, it was taken out, but in consultation with the fire marshal's office, this is something they wanted to see put back in. Essentially, requires fire extinguishing system. systems to be installed at gas stations. Any idea why it was taken out? Yeah. We defer that to our fire marshal.

This was actually a requirement in the state fire code, and I guess through lobbying or whatever in the last update to the state codes, they took it out of the state. Really? But being our community, Route 58, everything is so close by, we just want to make sure we keep it in so we can keep if, God forbid, there's a fire at one of these gas stations, we have that redundancy. Thank you for catching that. Really?

Any comments? Anybody from the public? Nobody online. We will close that public hearing and keep it open for written comment until May 16, 2025 also. Next public hearing scheduled for 2025 is 216. It's a public hearing on Chapter 231-25, Outdoor Fires. Alright, this essentially creates regulations for outdoor fires and a permit, requires a permit for bonfires or other open fires on either town property or commercial properties. There are some exceptions for residential properties, but they have to comply with the law. We have clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear clear what they can use to start the fire then it has uh it has a provision that allows the fire chief or the fire marshal to prohibit bonfires or open open burns when weather conditions require that you that you put a burn ban on uh otherwise it's uh pretty pretty straightforward andrew wants to elaborate he could you know he keeps walking back and forth you know i feel bad for him but okay any questions no questions from the public questions from online okay we will close this public hearing and keep it open for written comment also to may 15 16th okay and our last public hearing for today is scheduled for 225 it's 218 and it's public hearing on chapter 231-66 so this is a proposed code amendment that comes up mostly from justice court right now under chapter 231 all the violations are considered misdemeanors oftentimes this creates problems in settling cases or reaching plea agreements in justice court because you'll have commercial entities that don't really want to plead to a misdemeanor this establishes that one of the one of the sections under the chapter will be considered just a violation so the prosecuting attorney would have the option to amend the charge to a chapter 231-55 charge which would just be a misdemeanor and sort of facilitated disposition it doesn't reduce the the fine that would be collected at all it's simply just the classification of the charge okay very good any questions no questions from the public nobody online okay we will close that public hearing and keep it open for written comment until may 16. we will now open the floor up to comments on any resolution on today's calendar any resolution on today's calendar please come up state your name and your location at the podium we allow three minutes time for questions and we'll be back with the next public hearing in the next few minutes thank you for uh all comments hi i'm doug warden i am uh the attorney for the applicant in connection with resolution number 26 which relates to the um proposed calverton satellite earth station this application requires site plan approval and special use permit approval from this board and i'm really just here to urge this board to do to to adopt the resolution at 26 at at number 26 and schedule a public hearing and authorize the town clerk to send out and post the applicable notices i just make one more point that i i think there has been a um a confusion regarding um the correct address um it should be 391 instead of 319 and i spoke with the town clerk before um the meeting regarding uh that and that's really all i have to say unless there are any questions what's your resolution number again just for the record it's it used to be 27 but 401 it was amended to 26.

okay that's it thank you anybody else from the public would like to comment on any resolution we have one person online okay are you pointing here head head head head head

actually using the technology for communications. So I give credit to this project. I have no opinion on the project manager, John Fazio, and his attorney, Jordan Frye. I have no quarrels at this time on the radiation exposure level report that came out. It seemed to be passing fine. I have no comment on the waiver of the vegetation screening, which I believe is in this resolution. I only have an issue with the owner of the technology that's being used, which is Starlink. The owner of that is Elon Musk. He is the former head of Doge. I would like, if there's any way, if we had any power to change things, to consider another alternative, like Viasat, HughesNet, Cooper from Amazon, OneWeb, and even Google is working on the technology. And I just did a quick search to see if there's any alternatives in Starlink. My reasons are, is obviously Starlink is a satellite internet constellation operated by SpaceX. And SpaceX. As you know, is Elon's role as a CEO. He holds a significant ownership and exerts considerable influence over the Starlink project. All right. I shouldn't have to remind anyone of the chaos we've had over federal, state issues, and even internationally by this person. Musk has increasingly been involved in political discourse. He recently had, there was a controversial topic over where he turned off those satellites in Ukraine. For workplace concerns, he stays involved with them. And there are many allegations and reports regarding workplace conditions and practices at some of his companies, including concerns about racial discrimination and safety, particularly during COVID. The concentration of power, I and my family and friends are concerned about the concentration, and power influence that Elon Musk himself holds. And we choose not to want to contribute or even touch any of the technology that he has. His company policy, he has made changes to company policies within companies that he owns. And of course, some people do not want to support these companies domestically as well as internationally. Financial concerns, I'm concerned about the financial risk associated with companies that are closely tied to any of his actions. And then finally, and then I'll close it up, his ethical concerns, I just feel that ethically he's not performing well. I wish the town board would weigh these factors against the innovative aspects of his companies when making their purchasing decisions. I rest. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. This is... Sir?

! Just a quick reply. Thank you for coming out. I appreciate you coming to voice your concerns. I would just say this is a federally licensed and regulated entity. This is just not the forum, I think, to be litigating these particular concerns. And that's my only statement. Thank you. Justin, we have somebody online.

I'm trying to start my video. Sorry. Can you hear me? Yes. We can hear you, Kathy. Okay. I can't deal with that at the moment. Kathy McGraw from Northville, and I just wanted to make some comments about Resolution 410, the Dreamland Fair. I don't have anything against the Dreamland Fair, but I'm concerned about the rush with which this was put through. I watched the April 17th work session where the idea was floated. At that time, there was no layout, no street shown, no plan for parking, no nothing, really. Except that we knew it was going to be near the hockey rink. And we knew the dates. And we had information about other places that they had put on fairs. And the next thing I saw was this resolution for today, in which I learned that they actually finally filed their application on April 23rd, 63 days before the event. Awfully close to the cutoff. When the town will not entertain an application. And I also note that you're waiving the late fee, which I can't understand. I'm concerned because I haven't seen the applications. It's not attached. And there was no way I could foil it once I saw this resolution, such that I would get it in time. And I'd like to know how the parking is going to be handled on a weekend to two of the days are on a weekend, a Saturday and Sunday, when the hockey rinks in full use, there are walkers in the area. There's a dog park. There's all kinds of activity out there. And I'm just wondering how parking is going to work. And secondly, the licensing agreement has not been entered into yet. And I'm wondering what the town's going to get out of this. Is the town going to be paid for this? Or is this group just using the land? I'd really like to know these things. And I couldn't see the application in a timely fashion. So if you all could just enlighten the public about this, it would be really helpful. Thank you. Kathy. Did you watch the work session? Yes, I did. A lot of those answers are in that work session. No, there were no specifics in that work session. There was no parking plan. No, no, there was none of that. But the late fee is not going to be waived. I don't know where you're getting that from. Clearly states it in the second paragraph that the late fee of $750 is added to their application fee of $650. So you're incorrect on that. Well, I stand corrected then. I apologize. How about the plan for the parking and all the activity going on around that place at that time? Kathy, they've given us a schematic. I'm not sure if you're going to comment on that. Yes, so they'll stop. And be looked at by all the appropriate department heads and agencies that normally go through this. Yes, so the way that this would work is, you know, the application gets circulated and the proposed parking plan will be reviewed by the police department, be reviewed by the fire marshal's office, and in some instances the planning department in my office. The license agreement, which their event is contingent on, wouldn't be drafted until we're comfortable with all of those features like parking, EMS, fire safety. All of those things would need to be adequately addressed before I would finalize a license agreement to put in front of the town board for authorization for the supervisor to sign. It just seems like the cart before the horse, approving the event before all of those things are done. And I don't understand what it means in the... I didn't get full clear about this, so I'll leave you with this. I'll leave you with this. [transcription gap] waived here oh in other words if I if I saw correctly if an application is not in within 60 days the board cannot approve a special event is that what you're referring to mr. typically the board would decline to entertain it in this instance given given the you know sort of the late presentation of it but the concept of it and what it could bring to the community I think the town board and I'm not going to speak for the town board but I think that they see the benefit to that into the residents of the town and we're willing to you know overlook those few days that the application came in late okay and is the town going to make any money off this I will certainly be negotiating a license agreement which will include a fee for use of the town property and then can you tell me mr. Howard what happens to that fee typically that fee goes to the general fund okay all right um okay well I don't have nothing against it just seems like it was awfully rushed and I think I don't know how it's going to work with all the parking problems there I saw the work session and there were no answers there in fact the people thought they were going to be parking on the grass and I don't know how has that all been worked out so she's clear she's clear she's clear she's clear she's clear she's clear she's It's currently a work in progress. It's being reviewed by all the appropriate people. If it doesn't cut muster, it doesn't go on. It's that simple. Well, then why do you approve the event before you know whether it cuts muster? Just simply the simple fact that you're going to have our police department looking into it, our fire marshals looking into it, building and grounds looking into it. Before you start putting all the town employees to work on something, I think it's good to have a consensus of whether or not the town board is interested in such an event. It's a standard sequence that even when we have our drag racing that's up at EPCAL, you approve the event and then it has to go through each individual department. And if any reason that if the police department or the fire marshal doesn't feel that it's a safe way or it doesn't have a proper setup and they go over things with it, then they'll make their recommendations to either approve or decline an event. But why put? Why? Why put town employees to work on something if you don't have a general consensus of how the town board feels whether or not to go ahead with a particular project or idea? And that's really what this is right now. It's an idea to have this event and it'll need to go through the proper channels. It's a lot more than an idea. The idea was raised at that work session. This is the town board approving this event. And I sat through all the meetings on drag racing and all that stuff was dealt with before the events were approved. I just think you're getting things out of order here. And I don't want to argue, but I just wanted to point this out. And I appreciate the time. Thank you. It says the outdoor safety plan submitted with the applicants, Chapter 255 is subject to the review and approval of the Riverhead fire marshal. It's clear.

Okay. Do we have anybody else who would like to comment? One online?

Comments on resolutions.

Good afternoon. This is Ron Hariri of Aqabahag.

Go ahead, Ron. Thank you. I'd like to address. Resolution.

Relating to the license agreement to Waddington realtor realty for parking spaces to be used for the love restaurant. Okay. According to the resolution, the consideration to be paid to the town for 26 or 28 parking spaces over an entire year amounts to 30 cents and change per car per day, which I would submit is an irresponsible giveaway. Okay. And I'd like to remind. This board. Much like. The giveaway. Of the veil. Music. That you are. Officials with the fiduciary. Obligation. To the taxpayers of this town. And your irresponsible giveaway of these town assets. Is beyond the pale. I don't know anywhere. That you would be. Able to pay. For the. Taxpayers. Of this town. Anywhere. Where you can park a car. For 31 cents a day. And I expect that this. This giveaway. Will be subject to challenge. As a dissipation of this town's assets. And it's particularly unnerving. When the town is proposing to spend millions of dollars. And charge taxpayers and others. For parking downtown. With a new parking. Garage. Which will cost. In excess of 10 million dollars. So I think you need to. Clearly revisit. The amount of compensation. Under this agreement. Because it is blatantly inadequate. Thank you. Thank you. Hi Barbara. Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Barbara Blass. James Port. I'm the director of the. Public

Second. All right. [transcription gap] Second. [transcription gap] Good afternoon. Barbara Blass, Jamesport. The town received a best application for a Tier 2 facility on Edwards Avenue, which was caught in your Calverton Industrial Moratorium, and that moratorium has since expired. In July of 2024, the governor formed an interagency fire safety working group to study incidents at several best facilities, and they're hosting a public webinar tomorrow to discuss, quote, critical fire safety considerations, regulatory updates, and best practices in the field, along with specific recommendations for local action. The recommendations were released last year, and their codification by the state is imminent. Several towns have opted to extend their moratorium pending adoption of these state regulations, which include updates to emergency operations, response protocols, training, and even location and contents of signage. The Edwards Avenue application was last revised in June of 2023, even before the governor's task force was formed. It was reviewed last month, and the staff report, which is part of the record, indicates complete or partial compliant with the town's current best code. I would ask, and perhaps urge, the town to ensure that this particular application will be further reviewed and made to comply with the impending code updates and amendments, which have been developed to further protect life and property, and that codification is imminent. So I appreciate your consideration. Thank you. That's the plan, Barbara. Great. Thanks. Anybody else comment on any matter? Anybody online? Nobody online? Well, I want to thank you all for coming out. Have a great day. Don't forget Mother's Day on Sunday. I'd like to make a motion to close the town board meeting. So moved. Seconded. All in favor? Aye. All opposed? Okay. Have a great day, everybody. Thank you for tuning in.
