VII. Discussions
A. Recycle Center - Beale/Paoloni
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 7:04 PM. Councilman Paoloni discussed the
decision to redesign the Recycle Center process so that some of the costs are recovered, which
would include the opening of the recycle center to the public with a fee schedule. Doing this
would generate revenue and people would visit less frequently and maximize their loads. This
would be a pilot program. Money would be collected at the ticket booth. There will be a need to
establish a booth and someone would need to man that booth. He also noted that there will need
to be communication with the public and a sign will need to be posted noting the price schedule.
Councilman Bettina asked if it were correct that the prices are being raised to offset the deficit.
Councilman Paoloni clarified. He explained that the cost of running this site will be borne by
those that are using the site. Councilman Beale stated that the intent is to streamline the program
and to have a pilot program from March 1St to July 1St. The household trash program will remain
as is. Regarding the disposal of the bulk items, people will be charged by the size of the vehicle.
The dropping off of brush or picking up mulch will remain free of charge. Councilman Beale
noted that there is now a plan and that plan needs to be put to work. Communication is going to
be key. He plans to be handing out communications for 2 weeks preceding the March 4th date.
He also noted that the Town Clerk's Office has been out of Recycle Center permits. Councilman
Paoloni added that he will oversee the financial side of this and Councilman Beale will oversee
the operations. Councilman Bettina agreed that this is a good idea. Discussion followed.
Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 7:13 PM.
40 Under 40 statement
Supervisor Colsey congratulated Councilman Bill Beale and Town Clerk Chris
Masterson for being recognized by the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Beale and Mr. Masterson
7bwn of Wappinger Page 2 Printed 2/5/2009
Town Board Meeting Minutes January 26, 2009
are being recognized by the Chamber's "40 under 40" program.
B. Rules of the Town Board - Colsey
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 7:14 PM. He stated that he had Town Clerk
Chris Masterson to thank for reviewing the current rules, comparing them with Roberts rules and
drafting the draft version that is being presented to the Board. The Supervisor asked this to be
put on the agenda to start the process. He asked that the Board review the draft over the next 2-4
weeks. Councilman Bettina thanked the Town Clerk for putting this material together for the
Board to look at. Councilman Beale asked how the changed were made. Mr. Masterson stated
that he rewrote the entire set of Rules. He recommended that the Board Members compare the
draft to the Rules on hand to see the differences. Discussion followed. Supervisor Colsey closed
the discussion at 7:19 PM.
C. Granger/Smithtown Drainage Update - Colsey/Foster
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 7:19 PM. Bob Gray, Engineer to the Town,
gave a presentation concerning rotted pipes at Granger Place, between Rockingham and Angel
Brook. He explained the work that would need to be done to correct these problems. If this is
successful the road, water main, gas main and sewer main will not need to be dug up, which will
save the Town money. He noted that he had done a similar project in Pleasant Valley and
suggested that Graham Foster, Highway Superintendent, go out there with him to look at what
was done there. Discussion followed.
Mr. Gray continued with a discussion about Smithtown Road. He pointed out that there
has been flooding on the south side of Smithtown Road and suggested that the system be piped
with a series of catch basins and then run the pipe in the DOT right-of-way. The elevation needs
to be looked at by a survey crew. Discussion followed. Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion
at 7:31 PM.
D. Weather Service Budget Item - Colsey/Foster
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 7:31 PM. Graham Foster, Highway
Superintendent, addressed the Board about the Weather Service being deleted from the budget.
He asked the board to transfer funds from the 5110.4 general account to the sub -account of the
weather service. This is a $1400.00 charge for 12 months. They no longer receive back-up
reports from the county. So, without this funding, the Town is "running blind". Discussion
followed. Supervisor Colsey stated that he will have a resolution for the next Agenda so that
they can do the transfer. He then closed the discussion at 7:34 PM.
