DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order and judgment is affirmed, with costs.

As the papers and pleadings submitted to the court failed to demonstrate the existence of an issue of fact, the petitioner's contention that the summary disposition by the Supreme Court was premature is without merit (see, Matter of Kellenberg Mem. High School v. Section VIII of N.Y. State Pub. High School Athletic Assn., 255 A.D.2d 320 ; Matter of Fisch v. Aiken, 252 A.D.2d 556 ;Matter of Bahar v. Schwartzreich, 204 A.D.2d 441 ). The challenged resolutions by the respondents Conservation Board of the Town of Southampton and the Town Board of the Town of Southampton were not arbitrary, capricious, illegal, or discriminatory, and the petition was properly denied (see, Matter of Pell v. Board of Educ., 34 N.Y.2d 222 ; Matter of Green v. Planning Bd. of Town of New Castle, 220 A.D.2d 415; Matter of Koncelik v. Planning Bd., 188 A.D.2d 469 ;Matter of Harwood v. Board of Trustees of Inc. Vil. of Southampton, 176 A.D.2d 291).

The petitioner's remaining contentions are without merit (see,Matter of Gazza v. New York State Dept. of Envtl. Conserv., 89 N.Y.2d 603, cert denied 522 U.S. 813; Matter of Brotherton v. Department of Envtl. Conservation of State of N.Y., 252 A.D.2d 498 ;Matter of Captain Kidd's, Inc. v. New York State Liq. Auth., 248 A.D.2d 791 ).

S. MILLER, J. P., ALTMAN, SCHMIDT, and SMITH, JJ., concur.
