Issued by: The Town Board
I Revision Date: N/A
PURPOSE
In accordance with NY Public Officers Law §87(6), the Town Board hereby adopts this policy,
which shall govern in instances that a request is received by the Town for Employee disciplinary records.
When necessary, this policy may be revisited to determine whether changes to it should be made. After
such a determination, the Town Board may amend this policy for whatever reason.
DEFINITIONS
"Employee" shall mean an individual currently or previously appointed for employment by the
Town Board. This definition shall not include elected officials or Town Officers.

to NY Public Officers Law §84, et seq.
"Response" shall mean the final submission made to the requestor of documents under FOIL. This
shall include an initial response and the response to any potential appeal.
APPLICABILITY
In the event the Town receives a request for documents that pertains to an employee, this policy
will govern the notification to be sent to said employee regarding the same. In the event that a negotiated
procedure exists within a collective bargaining agreement, that procedure will control.

Upon the receipt of a request for employee disciplinary records, the Town will notify the affected
employee, in writing, of the request as soon as administratively feasible. In the event that request is made
by the at -issue employee for their own records, notification will not be provided under this policy. As

Any notification issued under this policy will be in writing and delivered to the employee either

employed by the Town, reasonable efforts will be made to notify the former employee in the manner
referenced above or through other reasonable means.
FOIL requires the Town to engage in a specific analysis of whether documents are to be released
under the obligations contained within the statutory guidelines. Given the statutory mandates imposed on
the Town, an employee will not be in a position to object to the release of documents. Although an
1 A notification template is attached hereto.

Resolution Declaring June As Alzheimer's And Brain
Awareness Month In The Town Of Wappinger
WHEREAS, Alzheimer's disease is a type of dementia that affects memory, thinking, and behavior.
Symptoms eventually grow severe enough to interfere with daily tasks, and
WHEREAS, Alzheimer's is a progressive disease where dementia symptoms gradually worsen over a
number of years. In its early stages, memory loss is mild, but with late -stage Alzheimer's, individuals lose
the abilities to carry on a conversation and respond to their environment, and
WHEREAS, an estimated 6.9 million Americans, age 65 and older, were living with Alzheimer's in 2024.
Seventy-three percent of those living with Alzheimer's are age 75 or older. As the size of the U.S.
population age 65 and older continues to grow, likely so too will the number and proportion of
Americans with Alzheimer's or other dementias. By 2050, the number of people age 65 and older with
Alzheimer's may grow to a projected 12.7 million, barring the development of medical breakthroughs to
prevent or cure Alzheimer's disease, and
WHEREAS, one in three older Americans dies with Alzheimer's or another dementia; it kills more than
breast cancer and prostate cancer combined, and
WHEREAS, increased research, education, and community support services, such as those provided by
the Alzheimer's Association and other organizations to bridge gaps in knowledge and support across the
state, are needed to find more effective treatments and to provide access to quality care to those living
with the disease today, and
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger does hereby proclaim
June 2025, as "Alzheimer's And Brain Awareness Month" in Town of Wappinger, and commend its
observance to all citizens.

Resolution Awarding Contract To Complete Highway
Department Facility Rehabilitation Project
WHEREAS, it is the commitment of the Town Board to provide a safe work environment for the
employees of the Town of Wappinger, and
WHEREAS, the Town of Wappinger Highway Department Facility previously had code violations, and
WHEREAS, due to work performed at the facility performed by contractors and in-house labor, the
buildings now have certificates of occupancy, are safe for employees, and came in under budget, and
WHEREAS, there is one final section of the facility, previously thought to be set for demolition that can
be rehabilitated and expanded upon, and
WHERAS, it has been determined by the Superintendent of Highways Michael J. Sheehan that a portion
of that section would be better suited to accommodate a vehicle wash station to ensure longer lifespan
of Town vehicles and equipment, and
WHEREAS, statistics show that frequent washing helps to remove corrosive elements like road salt,
especially common in harsh New York winters, and other environmental contaminants that can damage
paint, metal components, and the undercarriage, leading to rust and deterioration, and
WHEREAS, cleaning prevents the buildup of dirt and debris in sensitive areas like the engine bay and
undercarriage, reducing the risk of mechanical problems and extending the life of components, and
WHEREAS, by preventing corrosion, mechanical issues, and allowing for early detection of problems,
regular washing helps reduce the frequency and cost of repairs, and
WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger finds it appropriate to complete the reconstruction
of the Highway Department Facility and also construct a vehicle wash station, and
WHEREAS, the Town has obtained a bid from a vendor on New York State contract for the project, and
WHEREAS, Rozell Industries, Inc. was the lowest quote at $1,578,000.00, and
WHEREAS, it is recommended that Rozell Industries, Inc. should be awarded a contract for the work set
forth in the document annexed to this resolution, and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, as follows:
1. The Town of Wappinger hereby awards a contract to Rozell Industries, Inc. to complete the
Highway Department Rehabilitation Facility in the amount of $1,578,000.00 to be funded out of DB Fund
Balance.
Town Supervisor Joseph D. Cavaccini is hereby authorized and directed to execute the above-

We hereby submit budgetary specifications and estimates for the following:
1. All Labor, material, and equipment to perform all digging, backfill, and slab prep only for a
45'X72' Pre -Engineered Metal Building with a wash bay. Building Specs are attached in hand
sketches. Basic drawings to get permits for the engineered building are included in price below
but may need some additional depending on requirements from town (engineered foundation
and PEMB included). Foundation is figured on 2'x1' footing with an 8" wall 5' tall from that.
The slab will be 8" throughout the space. This building is to be completely free-standing from
the existing structure it buts up to. Insulation is included to meet code. 5 O.H. Doors at 12'
Wide by 14' high also included. As well as 5 -man doors (3070) three of which are exterior and
2 interior. Rozell will also install basic electrical throughout the new space. This will be low
bay LED's and outlets to meet code. Hanging heaters will be provided in the space for heat.
Floor drains in the slab included to go out to a oil water separator and then holding tank.
Louvers and exhaust fan similar to the mechanics shop also included. A partition wall for the
wash bay is included and the intent is to wrap this is 2 layers of sheetrock with FRP (washable
surface on the exterior). I've included some blasting for rock but we will need to revisit this
depending on foundation design and getting a holding tank and oil water separator
underground. All Labor, Material, and equipment to replace the roof on block building
adjacent to our new structure. Included in the budgetary pricing is the stripping of the existing
roof, a budgetary estimate to have an engineering study done on the property to determine the
extent of re -enforcing the roof. Once study is done and roof stripped, I have figured on re -
enforcing 15% of the roof trusses to get them up to code in pricing below. Once up to code and
deemed safe Rozell will install a new rubber roof over this structure.
