CORRESPONDENCE LOG 2004CL-117-2004CL-119 (See Attached Sheets) DISCUSSIONS: • Community Center Progress -Don Swartz announced that since he was here last he responded to comments from the DEC regarding one of his earlier sketch plans for the proposed Municipal Building. DEC had some concerns with the position of the building as it was originally proposed into the designated wet lands. Since then, Mr. Paggi has had the wet lands delineated. Don also went over the map that was presented to DEC and explained the revised layout to the Board Members. DEC approval has been given and we can now proceed with the next step. Mr. Paggi explained that the one item DEC had some concerns with, was the Storm Water Management Plan. When the original Town Hall Complex was built there was no plan in place to manage the run-off that was generated from the building to the 1 08/30/2004.RGM parking area and they requested, when we prepare the Storm Water Management Plan for the Community Center, to incorporate the entire site into a comprehensive plan. He advised the DEC they would, and do it under the proposed paved areas. The DEC also suggested a pedestrian bridge from the west part of the parking area over the finger of wet land would be an appropriate way of getting people from point A to point B. Supervisor Ruggiero informed the Board that he was invited to a meeting with some other municipalities regarding a possible joint YMCA that may phase in the Town of Wappinger. It may be a collaboration between Wappinger, Fishkill, East Fishkill and the YMCA, so before he attends that meeting he does not wish to authorize Don to go forward. Councilman Valdati moved to place this report on file, seconded by Councilman Bettina and unanimously carried. Cranberry Update— Councilman Valdati wished to know if there was going to be a referendum for Cranberry. Supervisor Ruggiero explained that we are waiting for the second appraisal so we may not be able to meet the deadline in September in order to get it on the November ballot. We may have to have to hold a Special Election for Cranberry. Intermunicipal Traffic Committee—Councilman Valdati wish to address the traffic situation in the surrounding communities. He would like the Board to send correspondence to the surrounding communities asking if they would be interested in working together in solving some of the issues. Supervisor Ruggiero explained that there is a committee that exists at the County called the Poughkeepsie Dutchess Transportation Council which he sits on as Supervisor as well as Supervisor Pagones, the Village Mayor as well as DOT, and County Planning. They work to help set the moneys that are received from the Federal Government through Albany through the County to allocate projects such as the Route 9 widening, and the Newburgh Beacon Ferry.
