6. Mr. Fulton: One of the things we were going to discuss tonight was
the Gallo Bond.
Mr. Quinn: The firm tendered a bond approximately 2 weeks ago and upon
examination we found it wasn't in proper form. It had no due date in it.
We returned it to Mr. Gallo's counsel for amending. On several occasions
we have talked with his counsel and have been informed that the Insurance
Agency that issued the bond is in the process of amending it . To date we
have gotten no papers through on it. We still have the improper form in
our office. Mr. Rdlly talked to Mr. Gallo this afternoon, and he indicated
to Mr. Reilly that he wasn't aware of this situation. Mr. Gallo promised
TOWN BOARD MEETING
-7- Sept. 15, 1966
we would have the bids in our hands this afternoon. Mr. Reilly seemed to
think he was quite sincere.
Mr. Fulton: Is there any action we can take tonight so we don't have to
wait until next meeting?
Mr. Quinn: I don;t see how you can do it ahead of time.
Mr. Fulton: Referring to Section 111, Fleetwood, It was our opinion, after
looking at the ._:cord, he had imposed on him the latest specifications.
The Bond was based on the new specifications. When does the Bond run out?
Mr. Quinn: It had a fair amount of time to run, as 1 recall. The Bond
was written to cover the new specs. This is why an amendment was necessary,
Mr. Clausen: We all agreed he should be under the old specs.
Mr. Quinn: The only thing that needs action by the Board is approving
the fact that it is under the old specifications.
Mr. Clausen: Are the roads to be finished by this year?
Mr. Quinn: The Bond was posted approximately a year ago.
Mr. Fulton: It wouldn't be due this fall anyway. If Gallo puts the roads
in between now and winter, he will be doing us a favor.
A resident stated that Gallo says he is waiting for specs from the Town.
Mr. Quinn: There seems to be no communication between his representative
and him in reference to the bond. The bond has got to come in and the
Board has got to authorize him to go under the old specifications. He's
not doing this to be difficult. We have been dealing, as we normally
would, with his representatives, and they have apparently not kept him'
informed.
Mr. Fulton: We can call another meeting for Tuesday night, we can adjourn
this meeting until then.
Mr. Clausen: Mr. Supervisor, 1 don't doubt we all have sympathy and
iev l {eve Mum to whey t hCwC:nc;l. T ho 'fc,c t s, °.+ie hnw, to get th T s �'l�i►ti
TOWN BOARD MEETING -B- Sept. 15, 1966
straightened out. Ask the residents to bear with us until Tuesday night,
we will know further what to do.
Mr. Fulton called for e 5 minute recess et 9:15 P.M.
Meeting called back to order 9:25 P.M.
7. Mr. Fulton: The next order of business involves Wildwood. Mr. Cortellino
has requested to address the Board.
Mr. Cortellino - referring to Planning Board approval of Wildwood, presented
copies of letters from the Planning Board to Messrs. Lefko b Alexander, under
date of Dec. 6, 1963, pertaining to conditions of approval more specifically
paragraph 4, b d g, referring to permanent surveyors monuments and trees in
front of every yard. Both of them have been substantially disregarded.
Since a major portion of these things have not been fulfilled, and I believe
the bond has run out, we would like to know what your action is.
Mr. Quinn pointed out that it would be a matter of how the letter was
construed, e.i., whereby eliminating Section 3 e, b, c, etc. of that
section, are automatically eliminated.
Mr. Cortellino stated they ere concerned more with Section 4. He asked
whether Beth Place is going to be a separate section •- or is there a
cut-off date of building?
Mr. Fulton Interjected that Mr. Lefko said sewer lines are in on Beth Place
and it is graded off, it was just a matter of outlining the road.
Mr. Lefko explained that when Mr. Rotwein of Cornell Homes Inc. graded
off bank, he graded completely across the street where he owns houses;
what is there now is grading he did over sewer lines.
Mr. Quinn answered Mr. Cortellino's question about cut --off date stating
there was no abandonment of the developing. The developer must lay out
streets on plots, but there is notime limit with regard to selling lots.
Cortellino .t ill contended that developerc weren't living up to thn
TOWN BOARD MEETING
-9- - Sept. 15, 1966
agreement, or plat, portion of the road difficult to negotiate, trees
and monuments not in, 6 Beth Place not constructed.
Mr. Quinn assured Mr. Cortellino that Mr. Lafko had been in contact with
Messrs. Kelley and Knud Clausen amd are actively trying to acomplish
road completion this fall.
Mr. Fulton to Mr. Lafko - are you ;.bligated to put a topping on the roads?
Mr, Lafko: We're obliged to maintain that road for one year after March.
The toppings were all in place. We were instructed to go back in there
with the old list. We weren't in favor of doing the things we were
requested to do, but we did them. The road is under the maintenance
period. It is still under maintenance for one year after the bond expires.
The former Highway Superintendent and Town Engineer were there when the
roads were graded.
Mr. Cortellino: The roads broke up in the Spring. The only places where
it broke up is where water wasn't conducted correctly. To Mr. Quinn: Ts
this developer responsible for the conditions of these reeds after they put
them in for any period of time, even if they are not accepted by the Town?
Mr. Quinn: Yes
Mr. Cortellino: Why doesn't the Town make Mr. Lafko do some work?
Mr. Quinn mentioned that Mr. Lafko has been conferring with Messrs. Kelley
and Knud Clausen, and that the critical point was not the Bond, but that
certain ditching and water conditions and so forth are what have a
detrimental effect on road suncces.
Mr. Fulton to Mr. Lafko: You're still under obligation? When will you
do it?
Mr. Lafko: When the Town tells me to do it.
Pdtr. Clausen : There were some other problems connected to the developer
rather than Just the roads. T think therd was e meeting called between y
TOWN BOARD MEETING
-10- Sept. IS, 1966
Mr. Lafko, Mr. Alexander and the Highway Superintendent but was called off.
T
move' that we set another meeting between Mr. Lafko, Mr. Alexander, the
Engineer to the Town, the Highway Superintendent.
Mr. Bulger to Mr. Lafko: Do you have a plan, or target date? Would you
care to tell us about it?
Mr. Lafko: 1 can't set a target date until the plan is worked out. Those
roads will be put in top shape.
Mr. Clausen: It will be to our mutual advantage to settle our differences.
We should have a meeting by which to settle this. It is up to the Town
Board to accept the agreement because we empowered our attorney to work
pith Mr. Lafko's attorney and come before us with a reasonable negotiationl
1 think this is where we are and we have to meet.
Mr. Bulger: is it your understanding that a meeting, and the agreements
you are coming to, that the roads will be done this fall? Do these people
have adequate reason for condern?
Mr. Lafko: I will do all that is in my power. It is not completely within
my control.
Mr. Clausen made a motion seconded by Mr. Bulger to re -schedule a meeting
between Mr. Lafko, Mr. Alexander, Engineer to the Town, Highway Supt.
and the Town Board. Thursday, Sept. 22, 1966 8 P.M. for the purpose of
resolving problems concerning the roads, ditches and other related
conditions in Wildwood Forest, and that our attorney would be in touch
with Mr. Lafko's attorney, so that he will be aware of what the meeting
is about. Motion Unanimously Carried.
9. Mr. Clausen: 1 read the contract for Raymond & May Planning
Consultants. Can we get a better price?
Mr. Quinn: In going over the draft that was submitted, T placed the sole
right and rncpons i b i 1 i ty in the Town Board to epr+rove these th i nqs rather
TOARD BOAR MEETING
-11- Sept. 15, 1966
than any other agency of the Town. These are a standard rate.
f!r, Clausen: We should table this contract and have further discussion on
meetings on this.
Mr. Bulger: I agree
Mr. Quinn: They all operate in about the same way. In fairness, most
professional time is between $35 & $40 an hour. I don't think you are
going to come up with a better rate.
Mr. Bulger: We're getting about 48 man days.
Mr. Clausen made a motion to table this until the Tuesday meeting and
copies of it go into the mail to other Board members immediately. Seconded
by Mr. Bulger. Motion Unamimously Carried.
10. A tetter from Mr. DiSanza & Mr. McCann, in reference to the hazardous
intersection of Myers Corners Rd. & Spook Hill Rd. was read. They requested
a full Stop sign placed on Spook Hill Rd. at this intersection, and suitable
warning signs on Myers Corners Rd. at the approach of Spook Hill.
Mr. Bulger: We do not have the authority on our own to install a stop sign.
This is an intersection of a County & Town Rd. 1 move we address a
communication to the County Superintendent of Highways, attach a copy of
Messrs. McCann & Djsanza letter, and ask his opinion as to this particular
intersection, indicating that we would look favorable upon the request for
the installation of a stop sign and a curve warning sign and a letter be
directed back to Messrs. McCann & Disanza indicating what action we are
taking. Seconded by Mr. Clausen. Motion Unamimously Carried.
A letter from Brent & Phillips, attorneys for Rosen, requesting the
removal of the barrier at the end of Dorothy Heights. Mr. Bulger made a
motion to refer the letter to counsel for anopinion. Seconded by Mr.
Clausen.

TOWN BOARD MEETING
-12 Sept. 15, 1966
Mr. Clausen: 1 think at that time the legality of the action was stili
up in the air.
The Clerk noted that the survey requested at a previous meeting, to determine
where the road actually lay, is in progress, or possibly completed.
Mr. Bulger: That particular situation was also referred to counsel.
A letter was received from Kenneth Eueli of E.C.C., with regard to their
operation of the Summit Gardens and Oakwood Knoll Sewer Plants, and a
corroborating statement letter from Matthew A. Vessello Health Commission
of the Dutchess County Dept. of Health.
Mr. Bulger: On that particular subject (Summit Gardens Sewer Plant) as
the allegations contained here are pulled out, it seems to me the Town
has a responsibility, before difficulties arise, to see what goes on in
that particular ;plant, as it is located within the Town. I move the
Dutchess County Health Dept. be requested to immediately investigate the
Summit Gardens Sewer Plant and the Engineer to the Town investigate also
and report to the Board on it. Seconded by Mr. Clausen. Motion Unanimously
Carried.
The Clerk was directed to notify both the County Health Dept. and
Engineer, as soon as possible, to instigate thisinvestigation.
11. Mr. Fulton: Carl Silber, representing Mid Point Park, Tnc. called
and asked me if he could have 10 days (to get Bond and stock in)
Mr. Quinn pointed out that there was no health problem involved with
Mid Point, that the Town had entered into an agreement to allow them
to operate, subject to $125,0000 performance bond, and stock in escrow,
guaranteeing proper construction and maintenance. They have failed to do
either of these items.
Mr. Bulger: They failed to comply with some of the conditions to which
they agreed. We put them on notice. We gave them 5 days to comply,
now they're asking for an additional 5 days.
TOWN BOARD MEETING
-13-• Sept. 15, 1956

following day,

notified of this action and copy to go to Carl Silber.
