No More Adjustments

In 2008, Sand Land promised Southampton Town that they would submit a site plan and variances for all of their illegal buildings. That was a condition of their remaining open.

Some time later, in approximately 2011, the town rejected Sand Land’s site plan application. Since then, no new site plan was submitted and approved by the town.

For more than a decade, Sand Land has scheduled hearings before the Zoning Board of Appeals and, at the last minute, canceled or asked for adjournments. How long should this be allowed?

More importantly, the site should have been shut down for failing to have variances or a site plan for approximately 13 years! The operations there, like rock crushing, do not follow the zoning regulations where this business is located.

The Noyac Civic Council is a local organization of 500-plus members who are outraged that the town has not enforced its own laws in this matter and protected the community. No more adjournments should be given to Sand Land.
