IV. Discussions
A. Caparelli Re -Zone
Caparelli Re -Zone Discussion
Jeff Bass, the Engineer representing the Capparelli's, presented a conceptual site plan of the
proposed self storage, RV storage, and boat storage facilities that are planned off Route 9D. Jay
Paggi, Engineer to the Town, commented that if they went to a zone consistent with the proposed
use it would need to go before the Planning Board for a site plan review and possibly a Special
Use Permit. In that review, the Town would take an in depth look at the existing wetlands on the
site to see how it would impact the proposed use. There are three wetlands that must be
addressed: the State DEC wetland, the Federal wetland and the Town wetlands. They are each
delineated separately. The other items needed to be discussed are the access off Route 9D and
the three drain pipes that have been existing for quite some time on 9D that drain the west side of
the road to the east side of the road. Al Roberts, Attorney to the Town, explained that according
to the Town Ordinance non-residential sites are permitted multiple uses as long as they meet the
minimum requirements for each use. However, much more work needs to be done before this
can be considered. Councilman Bettina was concerned that the proposal also needs wet lands
delineations. An informal meeting with the residents of the area was proposed by Councilman
Bettina to discuss traffic, wet lands and other issues. Discussion followed. The applicant was
asked to return with more detail of the proposed plans before a formal application is presented.
Supervisor Ruggiero also recommended that the applicant wait until the Engineer returns with
his study of permitted uses of Conservation Commercial in other towns.
B. Pavement Texturing - Kira Flynn
Pavement Texturing Discussion
John Oaks gave a presentation on Pavement Texturing. John explained that this product is ideal
for crosswalks and parks and went on to explain how the product was installed. It is durable,
will last from 7-10 years and is maintenance free. There are approximately twelve patterns to
choose from and the cost is between $7412 a square foot to install. Discussion followed.

Town Board Meeting Minutes April 10, 2006
C. Cable Franchise Legislation
1. Cable Franchise Legislation Discussion
Supervisor Ruggiero announced that Verizon is in the process of building a fiber optic network
for the purpose of serving the communities in our area with cable television and other
communities are looking at franchise legislation. Al Roberts, Attorney to the Town, looked into
this and explained that Verizon is coming into the area in order to provide for Broadband Access
and Cable TV. The Town of Poughkeepsie and the Town of Fishkill have adopted
comprehensive legislative schemes for controlling the telecommunication grid within their
towns. The fee setup in both municipalities is based on gross revenues. In addition they had a
franchise fee of $2.50 a linear foot for the length of wire within the municipality. There was a
case in Rome, New York, in which the court struck down a percentage of the gross revenues as a
fee base. The Supervisor's office has been contacted by Verizon and representatives of
Cablevision. Attorneys have been retained by Cablevision and a local law has been proposed
that would prohibit the installation of any further utility devices that are 20 cubic feet or more
and lower than eight and one half feet above grade. It's been alleged that Verizon has been
installing dummy boxes which would eventually be used to allow transmission of cable services
into the individual homes. This legislation would prohibit is the installation of any such devices
that are lower than eight and one half feet above grade. Discussion followed.

VII. New Business/Comments
1. Councilman Valdati New Business
Councilman Valdati wished to thank the Supervisor for following through on getting some of the
broken telephone poles removed, especially the one that was snapped on Middlebush Road.
Councilman Bettina said there are still several pole stumps in Chelsea that he would like to have
removed.
2. Councilman Bettina New Business
Councilman Bettina said he received a notice in his mail box from Sun -Up Construction
regarding a water line being installed to Chelsea Ridge Apartment. This is the first he has heard
about this line. He then requested that the Town Attorney and Town Engineer to come up with
some way to get the water for the Chelsea residents.
Supervisor Ruggiero replied that this is a privately owned water line that has nothing to do with
the town. The Village of Fishkill, as the town has been told, has rights of refusal to accept the
pipe. If they refuse to accept the pipe at some future date then the opportunity may be available
to the Town of Wappinger or the Town of Fishkill. The Town has attempted to get part of that
water for Town residents for the past three years to no avail. Councilman Bettina wishes to set
up a meeting with Mayor Miccio and Supervisor Pagones and see what can be done to get
municipal water to the residents of Chelsea.
Councilman Bettina commented that it is adding insult to injury that "the water line will be right
out in front, the people will be inconvenienced in and out of the night... a pipe's there and they
can't even tie into it." Supervisor Ruggiero informed Councilman Bettina that the owners of the
pipe are spending millions to build it and they do not care what the town's needs are.
Councilman Bettina wants something done because the residents are having a lot of problems
with their water. Jay Paggi, Engineer to the Town, said that the town has exhausted itself trying
to see what actions were necessary to take control of those water lines within the Town of
Wappinger. He found out that the Town can't deal directly with Aimco; it needs to deal directly
with the Village of Fishkill. Fishkill has the first right of refusal. There were other issues.
Before the DEC approved the water supply permit to extend the water line from Fishkill to
Chelsea Ridge Apartments Complex, they had to drill an additional well. Councilman Bettina
wished to know why he was not made aware of this water line. Mr. Paggi said that the Planning
Town of Wappinger Page 14 Printed 4/20/2006
Town Board Meeting Minutes April 10, 2006
Board did a site plan review of the tank at Chelsea Ridge Apartments. The Town is not
responsible for inspecting this work. Mr. Roberts informed Councilman Bettina that the Town
has had nothing to do with this private matter. It is a private venture between the apartment
complex and the Village of Fishkill. Councilman Bettina wished to have the following comment
on record: "I am upset that I didn't know about this" - that he had no knowledge of the
construction of this water line and would like the residents of Chelsea to be notified that this is a
private venture and the town has been exhausting all legal means to find a way for the residents
to tie in. Attorney to the Town Al Roberts will research this further.
