Buildings, building construction and Zoning and land development — See Ch. 301. improvements and housing standards — See Ch. 217. 209:1 § 209-1 ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW § 209-1 ARTICLE I General Provisions § 209-1. Findings; purpose; period for review. [Amended 5-5-2009 by L.L. No. 13-2009] A. The Town Board of the Town of Riverhead finds that new development can have a substantial impact on the character of the area in which it is located. While some harmful effects of one land use upon another can be prevented through zoning, subdivision controls and housing and building codes, other aspects of development are more subtle and less amenable to exacting rules of thumb, promulgated without regard to specific development proposals. Among these are the appearance of buildings and open spaces as they contribute to an area as it is being developed or redeveloped. Such matters require the timely exercise of judgment in the public interest by people qualified to evaluate the architectural design and appearance of a development and make recommendations to the Board(s) vested with the authority to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the proposed development. B. The purpose and intent of architectural review shall include: (1) Promote those visual qualities in the environment which bring value to the community. (2) Foster the attractiveness of the community as a place to live and work. (3) Preserve the character and quality of our heritage by maintaining the integrity of those areas which have a discernible character or are of special historic significance.

Omer Cooper J (1971) March 2010 Newsletter Race and Ethnicity in Early America Reflected through Evidence from the Betsey Prince Archaeological Site, Long Island, New York By Allison Manfra McGovern* Introduction A small house, situated in the wilderness of northern Brookhaven Town, was built more than two hundred years ago. The house was occupied for roughly 50 to 60 years, then left abandoned and seemingly forgotten in the woods of Rocky Point, until the 1990s. It was discovered during Phase I and II cultural resource surveys conducted by the New York State Museum (NYSM) along New York State Route 25A in Rocky Point. These surveys were part of a New York State Department of Transportation project to widen Route 25A in the Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County, New York (LoRusso 1998, 2000).

  • Piscivory and Prey Size Selection in Young- Of-The-Year Bluefish: Predator Preference Or Size-Dependent Capture Success?
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 114: 59-69,1994 Published November 3 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. 1 Piscivory and prey size selection in young- of-the-year bluefish: predator preference or size-dependent capture success? Francis Juanes*,David 0. Conover Marine Sciences Research Center, State University of New York. Stony Brook. New York 11794-5000, USA ABSTRACT: Young-of-the-year bluefish Pomatomus saltatrix become piscivorous at a very small size/age. When feeding on Atlantic silversides Menidia menidia in the laboratory, bluefish forage in groups and, unlike many other piscivores, tend to attack their prey tail-first. Attack distances, times and velocities as well as attack rates were not size-dependent Handling tlmes and attack success rates, howcver, were strongly determined by both predator and prey slze When given a choice of silverside sizes, all bluefish sizes consumed primarily small prey. These results suggest that bluefish attack all prey sizes upon encounter but capture primarily small prey. Size selectivity may be a passive process mediated by differential size-based capture success KEY WORDS: Piscivory . Prey size selection Foraging theory . Capture success . Bluefish INTRODUCTION prey are preferentially consumed (Brooks & Dodson 1965, Werner & Hall 1974), while others have shown As fish grow they tend to broaden the size range of the reverse (Bence & Murdoch 1986, Walton et al. prey items they ingest, thus increasing the average 1992). Confer & O'Bryan (1989) demonstrated that size size of prey consumed. This increase in prey size has selectivities of planktivorous fish depend on whether been attributed to ontogenetic (and often allometric) feeding is averaged over short or long time periods.
