Public Statement
Ms. Mary Schmalz said that in the correspondence log there is a letter from Ralph Holt
about the possibility of there being no money for fireworks at community day this year. She
explained that at the previous year's community day there were few people viewing the fireworks
at Schlathaus Park. Mrs. Schmalz calls the fireworks at Community day a waste of taxpayer
money. She said that the fireworks would be better if they were done at the concert around the
fourth of July. She said that more people would be able to enjoy them at an event in July.
Councilman Kuzmicz said that there is a possibility that there would be fireworks in the Town
around the Fourth of July. There is always an attempt made to have fireworks at Community day,
but the funding may not be available. Instead of fireworks there has been an attempt to make
rides at the event free to the residents by receiving donations. Mrs. Schmalz said that regardless
of who pays for them, more people could enjoy them if they were in July. Councilman Kuzmicz
said that some people also go away in the summer, but are around in September for Community
Day. Councilman Kuzmicz explained that they were looking into different options.
Supervisor Gutzler said that through the last two years the Town has participated in the
Dutchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce's balloon launch. She explained that there
were some weather problems, but when it was clear out the park was packed. She said that there
is a possibility of something going on that time of year which will include fireworks, but it can't
interfere with the balloon launch.
Ms. Schmalz said again that on Community Day there were not a lot of people at
Schlathaus for the Fireworks. Supervisor Gutzler said that some people do view the fireworks
from different sites. Ms. Schmaltz said that they would be publicized around the Fourth of July
because the Poughkeepsie Journal does a special on where there are fireworks. Councilman
Kuzmicz said that they would take her comments under consideration.
Resident Joe Torres said that he has gone to the Town's Fireworks many times in the past,
but has watched from other locations. He said that many other residents do this as well.

IX. Items for Special Consideration
Assemblyman Lalor
Supervisor Gutzler stated that she had received a letter from Assemblyman Lalor that
addresses the issue of a tax exemption for businesses that are inside New York State, but are
outside of the MTA Region. Dutchess County is within the MTA Region. Attached was a
Town of lf'appinger Page 4 Printed 221'2014
Regular Meeting Minutes January 27, 2014
resolution which Assemblyman Lalor would be discussing. Assemblyman Lalor explained that
there was a proposal in the state budget. Right now, the corporate tax is 7.1%. The governor has
said that tax will go down to 6.5% for manufacturers in the MTA areas, which includes Dutchess
County. Manufacturers in areas outside of the MTA region will have a 0% corporate tax.
Assemblyman Lalor explains that manufacturers will move jobs to areas without the tax, because
it will be less costly to do business. He believes that New York State is proposing these tax
changes because the upstate economy is struggling, and the downstate economy is stronger. Mr.
Lalor said that the line of where upstate New York begins is in the eye of the beholder. Mr. Lalor
pointed out that the manufacturers in areas that will be paying the corporate tax, are also subject
to the MTA payroll tax. He said that representatives are working together to oppose these
regulations. He continued by saying that the only region with negative job growth in New York
was the Poughkeepsie -Newburgh -Middletown area. Mr. Lalor then listed some of the other
people who working to amend this tax proposal. Mr. Lalor said that it is important to support
manufacturing in our area. He said that he feels momentum is on their side and other Towns have
passed the resolution that he is proposing to the Town Board.
Councilman Bettina said that he applauds Assemblyman Lalor for taking on this issue.
Assemblymen Lalor said that the Governor has been responsive to this type of pressure from the
Towns and business groups in in the past. Councilman Beale said that the previous layoffs and
the possibility of future layoffs at IBM will create a bad situation in the Town. He also explained
that our Town has areas zoned for industrial use and they are always looking for ways to attract
businesses to fill those buildings. Councilman Beale said that the Board should pass the
resolution that Assemblyman Lalor is proposing.
Councilman Bettina also thanked Assemblyman Lalor for his comments on Saint Francis
Hospital. Councilman Kuzmicz thanked him for his work and said that he supports the proposed
resolution.
Councilman Beale asked Assemblyman Lalor how New York State Senator Terry Gibson
felt about the proposed tax for manufacturers. He responded that he is concerned and opposes it,
but he is not sure what action Senator Gibson is taking.
Supervisor Gutzler then referenced the Resolution proposed by Assemblyman Lalor and
read it aloud.
RESOLUTION: 2014-64
Resolution Memorializing the State of New York in the Elimination of the Corporate Tax
in the MTA Region
WHEREAS, the proposed 2014-15 New York State budget includes a provision that would
eliminate the corporate income tax on manufacturers for all of the state except for counties in the
MTA Region, including Dutchess County.
WHEREAS, this proposal will drive manufacturing jobs out of our communities. A
manufacturing business in Dutchess County would pay a 6.5% corporate tax, while a business in
Ulster or Columbia County would have no corporate tax.
WHEREAS, the Poughkeepsie -Newburgh -Middletown metro area is one of only two New York
regions to lose private -sector jobs in 2013.
WHEREAS, proposals to split New York State into separate tax zones are divisive and pit New
Yorkers against each other.
NOW THEREFORE LET IT BE RESOLVED, That the Town of Wappinger memorializes
the State Senate, Assembly and Governor to include all of New York, including the counties in
the MTA Region, in the elimination of the corporate tax on manufacturers. Copies of this
resolution to be forwarded to New York State Senators Gipson and Ball ; New York State
Assemblywoman Barrett and Assemblyman Kieran Michael Lalor, District 105,

Councilman Beale
Councilman Beale relayed a question he has been asked by residents about the Safe Act.
He asked what was happening because the court found that the seven round ammunition thing
was arbitrary. He asked if the decision automatically changed the law or if it had to be rewritten.
Assembly Lalor said that the decision was stayed pending an appeal and that nothing would
change until after the appeal.
Supervisor Gutzler
Supervisor Gutzler asked Town Attorney, Albert Roberts to explain the proposed
extension of the United Wappinger Water District. Mr. Roberts explained that this extension was
phase 2 of the contracted project with New York City. Water lines would be run from the DEP
pump station in Chelsea to the Chelsea Hamlet. The purpose was to supply water to the people
most impacted by the constriction. The contract said that if there were additional funds left the
boundaries of the area to be supplied with water could be extended after applying to the DEP.
The Town is holding informal information meetings for the people who will be affected by this
extension. The proposed resolution for tonight's meeting is an order calling a public hearing for
the extension.
Supervisor Gutzler said that the maximum estimated cost was $5,180,000. The NYC
DEP agreed to pay the cost of the establishment of the extension and the improvements thereof.
Supervisor Gutzler said that the cost to the resident who hooks into the water is in the resolution.
She said that they would be responsible for the hookup from the curb to their house. Supervisor
Gutzler then set the public hearing for February 24, 2014.
