Dear Al, I thought this better explained in writing. When we discussed the funding for the power
screen, I thought $75,000 from the 2008 O&M budget went into Capital for the Power Screen. I
was incorrect: it went back into the O&M budget to keep the rate down. In the interin, I
presented you the breakdown based on $75,000. The cost of the Power Screen with engineering is
$130,000. Below please find a new breakdown, which will show that Tri -Muni needs an additional
$27,252.24 from the Town of Wappinger. I have consulted with Mark O'Sullivan and the Town has
enough Fund Balance to cover this additional amount. Would you like to do a new resolution or an
addendum to the previous resolution from the Town of Wappinger? The Commission will authorize
this at our next meeting. Please contact me with any questions or concerns. Karen
