C o r r e s p o n d e h c e ■ betw e e n the Eastern Suffolk Federation of Real E s t a t e Board, Inc., and County Executive John V. N. Klein con- cprning the farm land acquisition proposal indicates that proceedings for condemnation, denied in June, 1974, became a reality in May, 1975. According to a report from the Federation, Arthur Kunz, who works as second in com m a n d to Lee K o p p e lm a n , director of the Bi- County Planning Commission, told organization members at their May 14, 1975 meeting that the County Executive had asked the Suffolk Legislature to approve a $15 million appropriation to fund the condem nation of those parcels that were not voluntarily placed in the Farm Preservation Program. The Federation is equally con cerned over the possibility that there is no covenant between the County and local town government that the County will not use the property in the future for any municipal purpose, other than agri culture or open space.

Klein dates back to June 14, 1974, when the organization raised a number of questions, asking for a study showing the tax effect on the five east-end towns, stating prop erty values for tax assessments would be “ theoretically lowered by possibly 80 per cent,” with the smaller assessable tax base bearing the burden. They posed the future possibility of county acquisition of the remain ing interest in the agricultural land which might be used for public parks or housing. Degrees of devel opment rights, limitation as to type of crop, cluster development on remaining acreage if the farmer relinquishes only a percentage of his land holdings to development rights and the forementioned vol untary offering as against condem nation were among the matters the F e d e r a tion w a n ted explored fu r ther. Public hearings which followed the initial exchange of letters, laid some of the doubts to rest. One big one remaining was touched on by Klein in a letter dated June 24, 1974 ia' which he states “ there is, and never c4n be, any guarantee that the county, state or federal government will not acquire the property in question for other municipal purposes; obviously they have the right to aquire such property for any legitimate public purpose irrespective of whether the farm program goes into existence or not.” Diocese Expands Summer Program An expanded summerremedial and enrichment program in math and reading for elementary school child ren will be offered in July by the Rockville Center Diocesan Diagnostic and Learning Center, located in Malverne.
