Judge Tasker ordered the planning board to re-hear the cases and approve the preliminary maps. If the town does not appeal to the higher courts , the ruling could force the price of the property upward.

MORICHES SHOPPING TOWN CENTER MORICHES M@ricii ts 8s§I§f (Continued from page 1) project Is the State of New York. \ The plan of Improvement for Moriches Inlet would provide several tangible benefits. The recommended channels would give adequate acces s to the ocean for fleets of fishing boats , there- by increasing the catch of fish and shellfish , recreational boat- ing and sport fishing would be stimulated and access would be provided to needed harbors of refuge. The improved tidal ex- change through the Inlet would abate pollution and Increase shellfish productivity in Mor- eihes Bay and in adjoining Great South Bay. The provision of sand by-passing facilities would aid in fiie control of beach erosion and would stimulate recreational use of the beaches. \Up to the present time , no funds have been appropriated by Congress to initiate the Improve- ment of Moriches Inlet. I can assure you , however , that care- ful consideration is being given to this project in connection with our budget request for Fiscal Year 1966 , subject to over-all budgetary limitations and the needs of other worthy civil works projects. \ Mr. Marquardt ' s letter writing efforts did not stop with the letter to President Johnson. Copies of the same letter , In which he described the shoaling action taking place in the Inlet and in the bay waters , the Increasing pollution problems feeing the area , and the threat of the closing of the gradually worsening In- let , were also sent to Senators Jacob K . Javits and Robert F . Kennedy. Sen. Kennedy has not yet answered. Sen. Javits , ln his role as member of the Committee on Labor and Public Welfare , re- sponded as follows: \You may be sure that I shall do all I can to assist with the appropriation of funds for dredging and stabil- izing Moriches Inlet. I under- stand and appreciate your con- cern!\ Mr. Marquardt ' s letters fol- lowed the advice , revealed In an exclusive article ln The Long Island Advance , of Long Island' s Congressman Otis G . Pike. Mr. Pike stating that he had done everything ln his power to ac- complish the appropriation of funds for the project , to no avail , however , suggested that area re- sidents write letters to the pre- sident and other New York Con- gressman. Mr. Marquardt ' s efforts were applauded yesterday by a spokes- man for the Moriches Inlet- Marine Improvement Council , recently formed to strive for the accomplishment of the project authorized more than four years ago. \This Is a start , \ the spokesman said , \Let ' s hope that other residents Join ln these letter writing efforts which are necessary to help keep this matter alive so that lt does not take another four years for action on this needed project. \ Sewcsge Dispose! (Continued from page 1) against it. \ He stld the possi- bility of a sales tax had been discussed at length by Mr. Den- nison and the supervisors. Mr. Griffing said he would not oppose a sales tax if it could be limited to luxuries , such as restaurants and hotel expenditures. Mr. Grif- fing added that if eve r a sales tax were approved , it would have to be a joint operatio n with Nassau County. in a press conference later , Mr. Griffing declared his all-out opposition to a sales tax, Mr. Dennison said he was also op- posed to any sties tax. Mr. Dennison , In a brief talk at the organizational meeting, commented briefly en his annual •report (due for release this week); spoke out in favor of the four-year term , and agreed that the most serious problems are sewage disposal and wstir pol- lution. Other problems are the rapid increase In pop ulsllon , need for expanding services in health , welfa re , educatio n , police serv- ices , traffic congestion , un- employment , traffic safety, \ plus the need for the finances to pay for all of this. \ He cited his (and the board's) accomplish- ments of the past five years , including park acquisitions , re- building the county road pattern , professional studies for county operations and the creation of new departments. Following an executive session with the sewage system consult- ants , Mr. Dennison in a brief meeting with new a men , revealed that the board has agreed to appoint a legal counsel to help in setting up a commission or an authority for the sewage sys- tem. Mr. Dennison and the board feel that if a commiss- ion were established to operate thesystem , the local officials could have more control. If an authority were to be created by the legislature , the board and Mr. Dennison could do little to con- trol its operations. The legal counsel is to be named Monday. \He will do the legal re- search , not only to establish the agency but to work out details of a new amendment to the Suf- folk Sanitary Code , requiring sewage sy stems in all home dev- elopment s containing over 100 houses , \ Mr , Dennison said. State law now provide s that the towns will administer these private sewage systems until the county sewage districts are established. However , the of- icials went them administe red temporarily by s commissio n . As to the sewage disposal plans for the five western towns , ult- imately there will be 10 and possibly 12 separate districts , Mr. Dennison said, He said one district , all of Babylon and portions of Huntington and Islip, is now ready for preparation of detail plans and specifications. \Once these plans and spec- ifications are completed , actual constructio n can begin , \ he declared. Mr, Dennison estimat- ed the total cost of esta blishing a system for this district at $100 million. The other districtt would be smaller and the costs would be much less , he said, \We are now arguing as to who will pay for what , \ Mr. Dennison told reporters, Jydgt Chosen for fekd C®nf®$f in BS OAKDALE—Carlo Lombardl , of the music faculty et Adelphi Suffolk College , has been selec- ted one of two judges tor a com- petition to be sponsored by the South Store Symphony. Mr. Lombardi' s choice was announced here this week isy Howard Koch , director. Mrs. James N. Gehrig of West Hemp- stead , will be the other judge. 1 The competition has 17 en- trants , representing Suffolk and Nassau high schools , who will perform piano concerti or other compositions suitable to per- formance with a symphony or- chestra. The winner will appear with the South Shore Symphony in March. The competition , which has been held for more than a dozen years , will take place in the Bay Shore Junior High School at 7:30 p.m .

All present regular town em- ployes were reappointed at the salaries set forth in the final 1965 budget adopted November , 1964. The board accepted unani- mously the offer of Kenneth B, Hard of Upper Carman ' s River land , from Yaphank Avenue to Its source , following closing of title with Suffolk County for land to the south. Mr. Hard' s offer is based upon the town ' s assurance that the land will be always used for public park purposes. Mr. Dom- iny expressed the town ' s grati- tlde for the generous donation. Adopted was an amendment to the building zone ordinance Increasing the mimimum lot size on old filed maps , if filed prior to April 18 , 1954 , from 12 , 000 to 15 , 000 square feet , an amend- ment to the building zone ordin- anc e Increasing the filing fee for s ite plan approval by the planning board , and an amend- ment to the fire ordinance re- quiring the chief fire inspector to give written approval to con- struction or alteration of other than one-family dwellings. Mr. Dominy was authorized to advertise for bids for the painting of the board' s meeting room in town hall. Applications for building per- mits by Robert Sprague of Fire Island Pine s , and Madeline Dunn of Ocean Bay Park , were ap- proved. Both applic ations were for new dwellings at each ham- let cm Fire Island. During the week of February 15 at a school to be named later the board will conduct . a public hearing on the petition of John Kreteras of Lake Ronkonkoma , for a zone change fr om B-l residence and J busness to MF- 2 to build garden apartments on property on Lake Shore Road ln LR , near Lake View Ro-Sd. On February 16 at 10 a.m., the board will hold a public hearing on the application of Grace Cutting of West Palm Beach , Fla., and May Bailey of Miller Place , for a zone change from B residence to J-2 bus- iness to c onduct an upholstering and retail fabric business at a site on Route 25A, near Pipe Stave Hollow Road , In Miller Place. Top Project (Continued from page 1) average annual family incom e is one of the highest in the state , so is the amount of property- tax collected for education , \ be continued. The 1965 gross county budget ls $70. 8 million , while the county Indebtedness through the year will exceed $50 million , or about 18 per cent of the legal debt limit. \The county financial standing remains excellent and secure , as lt has for , the past five years , \ Mr. Dennison said . He added that \ county finances cannot be considered realistic and entirely secure as long as Its basic foundation of the property tax rests upon casual property Information and anti- quated , Inequitable , unrelated , uncoordinated assessmentprac- rJces . \Our general economy re- mains healthy, despite a rise in unemployment , stemming out of cutbacks in national defense con- tracts , completion of World' s Fair construction , and the stoppage of state arterial con- struction contracts , Increasing high s chool dropouts , and the con- tinuing Influx of new residents Into low-cost speculative housing without having permanent em- ployment , \ Mr. Dennison de- clared. Several things . Including traffic congestion , failure in aviation development , and Im- provement of the Long Island Rail Road have combined to slow down the rate of economic growth according eo the report. But , according to Mr, Dennison , this is somewhat offset , by the millions of dollars in federal con- tracts coming Into Suffolk , and location of new Industries in the county each week. He said that about $20 million in public works contracts to be let In 1%5 on roads , buildings , canals , and dredging will aid the econom ic situation. The Fire Island National Seashore will Increase the tourism and recreation In- dustry, Dennison said. Mr. Dennison urged reactiva- tion of the highway construction Srogram , rebuilding of the Long 3land Rail Road \from the ground up, \ Initiation of the New England bridge project , and the acquisition of Republic Airfield in Farmingdale , es other ways of improving the Suffolk economy. \However , \ he asserted , \ the county general economy can never be really stable until the basic structure thereof , the property of the county, ls ac- curately delineated and recorded and made subject to professional businesslike assessment. \ Once again , as In previous years , Mr. Dennison urged the supervisors to move on the monumental-ion project for highways , and prep- aration of an accurate map of property, as the first step toward equitable assessment. Mr. Dennison urged all town- ships do more professional plan- ning, pointing out that only three townships , Babylon , Southampton and Shelter Island , have done no professional planning . Mr. Den- nison said he would like better coordination on the planning level between the towns and the county, adoption of proper building and housing code s , the elimination of indiscriminate zoning, and the stoppage of overbuilding low cost , speculative housing \ which will Inescapably adversely affect the general economy. \ Mr. Den- nison said the projected idea of joint bl- county planning with Nassau \ would be an historic move , a great step forward. \ He recommended a return to quarterly allotment procedures as a better control of depart- m ental expenditures , stream- lining of paperwork end record- keeping, and the following ln the future , of his budget recommen- dations for county departments. Mr. Dennison did pat the Board of Supervisors , on the back for their work in slum removal , halt- ing of pollution , and creation of new departments to deal with povarty and human relations. He listed 30 recommendations , made ln the last five years which have not been acted on , declaring they were all urgent. These include the tax mapping and mon- umentatlon; standardization of assessment practices , standard- ization of building and housing codes; participation in metropol- itan regional planning, develop- m ent of aviation facilities , de- velopment of deep water ports , construction of a bridge connect- ion between the north and south fork; a review of mosquito con- trol , In relation to Insecticides and preservation of marshlands; establishment of coimty-wide bus transportation franchises , and establishment of central main- tenance and pooling of all county- owned vehicles. Also: A revaluation of the Suffolk County Water Authority functions; creation of separate departmental data-processing, highway traffic , and safety en- gineering; aggressive action on prevention of pollution by duck farms; a complete review of the skyrocketing county insur- ance - costs (from $3O0 K 0OO to over $800 , 000 in less than three years); better county public re- lations and opendiscussion by the supervisors of all county affairs; elimination of rentals for county office space; and approval of an Increase in his staff \for more effective administration of county affairs and initiation of capital budgeting. *' Mr. Dennison would also like to see the state legislature adopt legislation to give the County Planning Commission control of development within 500 feet of all road lines within the county road system. At present the county controls development with 500 feet of village and town lines , state parks , and state highways . \A prime example of where the Planning Commission should have had the control ls along the Veterans Highway and Post Jefferson-Nesconset Highway, \ Mr. Dennison said. He would also like legislation adopted to permit the county to acquire land for private industrial development, The towns now have this author- ity. And he wants still more legislation , permitting an In- crease ln the county proportion of taxes for gasoline and motor vehicle fees. At present the county receives over $3 million a year , Mr. Dennison said. He thinks the county share should be at least $8 million. Mr. Dennison also wants in- creased state aid for education increased state aid for pollution control , and retention of thepro- g>sed medical s chool at Stony rook. Touching on road building, he noted that at present four con- tracts , totallcg $2.5 million in road funds , are now being used in highway construction in Baby- lon , Southold , and Southampton; adding another $3.5 million worth of contracts will be let this year for road building in Islip, Brookhaven , and Southampton; with $2.5 million worth of drain- age contracts on county roads , also to be released. He said that contracts totaling $6 million (with federal aid) are to be let for road building ln Brookhaven. And plans for another $8 million in road construction will be pre- pared this year , he said. New construction projects he recommended are a crossing of the Peconic River , Just east of Riverhead; new road construction adjacent to MacArthur Airport , and extensions of Straight Path in Babylon t - om Deer Park Aye. to Commack Road. Mr. Dennison predicted con- struction of a new $5 million jail ln Riverhead will begin this year. Also planning S DI * con- struction this year «re a stu- dent buildiag st the Contnjunlty College; a dep artment of-pro- bation building at Yaphank , and addition,!* to the Children ' s Shel- ter and department of planning building at Hauppauge. \Still urgently needed in the •Xftfaty i-uildisg prcgrsm is tin proposed department of health laboratory at Hauppauge ($1 million); new headquarters for county police communications and storage at Hauppauge , ($1/2 million), and a new precinct head- quarters for the County Police District and Motor Vehicle Bureau at Babylon ( at $1/2 million), \ Mr. Dennison stated. Once more he recommended construction of a canal on the North Fork between the Peconic Bay and the LJ. Sound; deep water port development at Mon- tauk , Greenport , Port Jefferson Patchogue , and Sag Harbor , and of course ihonumentatlon , tax mapping, work on ths pollution problem , and sewage system con- struction for Western Suffolk. Mr. Dennison ' s report also urges town actios on professional planning; blueprinted zoning and initiation of cluster zoning; ad- option and enforcement of hous- ing and building codes; elimin- ation of slums; local civil rights programs; and Improvement In town highways. \We have come a long way through the past five years , and the best to com e out of it , with- out question , has been a slow but sure awakening to the great po- tentials of our priceless public heritage of open land , fresh water , unending shore front , and an awareness of the urgent need for timely action to save and protect all that is left , \ Mr. Dennison said. (Continued from page 1) for three years Inthe Canajoharle Central School District. He served ln the U. S . Navy from 1954 to 1956. Creadon of the position of school business administrator was recommended to the Board of Education by Dr. Thomas F . Looby, superintendent of schools , and approved by the board No- vember 24 , 1964. This recom - mendation had also been Included in a number of key recommen- dations made to the district by a team of specialists from the Di- vision of School Business Man- agement of the ' New York State Education Department. This de- partmental team had surveyed the district ' s school business management operation , organ- ization , and procedures In No- vember , 1964. In his new position , Mr. Haus- ner will have overall responsi- bility for purchasing- , accounting, payroll , cafeteria , buildings and grounds , and transportation , to- gether with all other related areas of school business affairs. He will report directly to Dr. Looby. P-M School Billion $ (Continue d from page 1) would coordinate all air , rail and road traffic , and would have huge parking facilities for com- muters , rails , roads , and of course the airports. The report says these \ park and ride \ terminals , and the railroad expansion could be un- dertaken by local agencies of government , and built as the pop- ulation Increases. The report urges the development of prime residential areas along the north and south shores; the location of industrial areas , to provide the shortest possible home-to-work travel patterns, Mr. Dennison and Mr. Koppel- man , ln releasing the report for Monday publication , last Thursday held a lengthy press conference. The two note that down through the center of tha Island is an industrial core , served by the threeLIRRbranch- es , the Jericho Turnpike , on the north , the Sunrise Highway on the south and the L.L Expressway through the center, Mr. Dennison seeks construc- tion of new rails . Including four- tracking the main l ine to Ron- konkoma , double-tracking from Ronkonkoma to Calverton; dou- ble tracking the north shore route to Port Jefferson , and terminat- ing the other two lines at Cal- verton and Mastic becaus e of lack of revenues further east. ¦ Mr. Dennison estimates the total cost of reconstruction , west of the Suffolk boundary, at one bil- lion dollars , He said the cost ln Suffolk , which would include high-speed grade separated facilities , would cost 250 i*nil- lion dollars. The improvements , in addition to allowing the carrying of more commuters , thus easing the traf- fic situation , would also Improve the LiRR' s chances of regain- ing much of its lost freight bus- iness , and Improve the speed of trains from the terminals into Manhattan. Mr. Dennison , pointing out that highways and airports are built -with federal aid , said fed- eral and state subsidies could ' be suppl ied to the railroad , plus revenue-producing bonds sold by the projected railroad manage- ment authority. He said the public (through fares , subsidies , tax-fprglveness programs , and outright grants by municipalities) has given the railroad as much as the estimated $116 million the Pennsylvania Railroad has invested in the LIRR . He notes that although the LIRR' s freight business has dropped off , and the commuter business increased only slightly in recent years , the fares have been Increased nine times since 1954. \We cannot Ignore the rail- road any more as has been done In the past. We simply cannot build new highways fast enough , \ he told newtjitifcii. \Oae act oi rails can move 40 , 000 people an hour , while one lane of the Long Island Expressway at best will move from 1 , 500 to 2 , 000 persons In an hour , \ he declared. feeding i#> the railroad' s op- eration would help supply tbe Jobs required by Suffolk' s labor force , Mr, Dennison and Mr. Koppel- man said. Mr. Koppelman said that 60 per cent of Suffolk' s labor force works In Suffolk , 25 per cent in Nassau , and the remainder ln the New York City area. Mr. Dennison , standing fast on his prediction that a bridge from Eastern Long Island to New Eng- land would be built , said the railroad improvement , construc- tion of new county roads to the hub centers , and the new man- ufacturing concerns that would come Into Suffolk with the better transportation , all would provide impetus to the building of the bridge. hm Hhy (Continued from pag e 1) when 1 sent it back to you , I told you that you had better keep it/;, ' It is wonderful to be back on the town board , \ Mr. Foley said after the organization meet- ing which lasted an hour and six minutes, \I look forward to three years of constructive service on the town board. It ls Imperative to seek immediate- ly an effective solution of the town ' s refuse problem. \ He re- ferred to the fact that the Dom- iny administration ' s proposal to establish a refuse pit in East Setauket was defeated recently. Pressed to submit any rec- ommendations he might have on the refuse question , Mr, Foley declined to do so at this time. During the meeting, Mr. Dom- iny submitted a \ certificate o! appreciation \ to Mr. Giaccone for his service to the town. The supervisor asked Town Clerk Edwin A . Arnzen of Center Moriches , to present his \ certi- ficate of appreciation \ to Stanley Abrams , who resigned late last year as chairman of the town ' s Long-Range Study Committee , but will continue as a member. Representing the Knights of Columbus Council 725 of Patch- ogue , Victor J. Yannacone , Sr., presented a flag with the words , \One Nation Under God\ to be flown over town hall below the United Stater flag. Victor J. Yannacone , Jr., spoke for his father in the pre- sentation ceremony. The -young attorney said Brookhaven Town had been founded by persons who left Connecticut seeking more f reedom ot worship, and observed that the words . One Nation Under God , \ are \ part of our heritage and part of the town ' s background. \ Mr. Dominy, a Protestant , ln- ' vited Mr. Foley and Mr. Rogers , both members of the Roman Catholic faith , to accept the flag with him on behalf of the town from the Knights of Columbus , a Catholic organization. FLAG GIVEN HOUGH APPOINTED Mr. Fuchs moved that Mr. Hough be reappointed deputy su- rrvisor by ths board. Samuel , _ Sloane , special town attorney, interjected that it Is \ solely within the prerogative of the supervisor to appoint the deputy. \ He continued that the supervisor has five days to make the appointment. If it is not done within that time , Mr. Sloane said , the town board may make the appointment. Thereupon , Mr. Dominy said he would appoint Mr. Hough as his deputy from January 1 through December 31 1965. A special resolution was passed to retain Mr, Sloane to advise the supervisor , town clerk superintendent of highways and town board members \In con- nection with procedures and re- solutions to be offered at the organization meetings of the town board...end...be further retained to pass on the legality of the bonds of any town officers and Justice of Peace and submit a written approval opinion for each. \ Al so , the board resolved that \ all special town attorneys con- tinue on present assignments, pursuing them until completion. '* The supervisor was reappoint- ed town welfare officer. Mileage rates were raised from eight to ten cents for au- thorized town employes. WELFARE MONIES ALBANY—State Comptroller Arthur Levitt today announced the distribution of $34,028 , 054 for the month cf January to the 65 public welfare districts in the state. Suffolk ls receiving $916 , 450. These monies represent ap- proximately 80% of the Federal and State share of the antici- pated welfare expenditures by the localities.
