Public Comments
Don Meade was the first resident to speak. He noted that, on April 30th, a medical
emergency took place at his house. The ambulance found the road quickly but was unable to
find the house. The resident called Councilman Bettina to complain about the issue. Mark
Liebermann, the Town Fire Inspector, responded to the resident by letter. In the letter, he
explained that New York State Fire Code requires that every structure on the street be posted.
Mr. Meade showed the Board a photograph proving that his property is numbered. He asked the
Board why a certificate of occupancy was issued if there were outstanding issues such as this.
Supervisor Colsey agreed that it should have been inspected and that should have been part of
the inspection. Mr. Meade then noted that there was an issue with bad fill being used on the
property. The builder claimed that the bad fill was removed. However, Mr. Meade has been on
the property for three years and has not been able to grow grass or trees. Obviously, the bad fill
was not removed. He is still digging up asphalt and debris. There is also a swale that was
supposed to be dug out. The swale was never graded properly. He noted that there is a lack of
supervision and oversight by the Town. Mr. Meade noted that the main issue is that the paving
of the road is the biggest obstacle. As a result of the road being unfinished, the residents are
receiving spotty EMS service. Councilman Beale took exception to the statement and pointed
out that Wappinger has the best response times in Dutchess County. He went on to say that this
resident has the obligation to have his house numbered. Councilman Bettina commented that he
visited the property. While the number can't be seen from the road, the resident showed
Councilman Bettina where the number is displayed further up the driveway near the house itself.
Councilman Beale noted that he has spoken with the individuals involved with the emergency
call, and they explained that there have been two situations due to this home and its street
number. Councilman Bettina stated that the house was properly marked and the ambulance
couldn't find it. Regarding the acceptance of the road, the law states that the road must be turned
over within two years. He stated that the Town is currently looking into that matter.
Councilman Beale asked how the Supervisor and Councilwoman Czarniecki could not find the
street number. Mr. Meade answered that the houses are set back far from the road. Councilman
Beale asked where the street number is. Mr. Meade replied that the street number is up by the
house. Councilman Beale explained that having the number up by the house is not compliant.
Councilman Paoloni noted that the resident is using the example of not being able to find the
house to make the larger point of why the road still hasn't been accepted. The other issue is why
the Building Department could allow this shabby workmanship with the bad fill and the road.
The real point is that the road hasn't been paved in four years. Discussion followed. Supervisor
Colsey asked Graham Foster, Highway Superintendent, what needs to be done. Mr. Foster
answered that 4X4's need to be put in the ground in front of these houses. Those 4X4's need to
be painted white with the house numbers painted on. Al Roberts, Town Attorney, noted that the
road needs to be brought up to the Town's Highway specifications. It is the developers
responsibility. There is a performance bond in place for this subdivision. Councilman Paoloni
asked what is taking so long. Mr. Meade replied that the builder has received other permits to do
work in other areas. Mr. Foster explained that this is the normal process. He and the Engineer to
the Town, Bob Gray, have walked the property and have given the builder a punch list of what
needs to be done. Everything that needs to be done won't be completed for a couple of months.
The 4X4's need to be put in place now to address the street address situation. Discussion
followed. Councilman Bettina asked Mr. Foster to come back to the Board at the next Town
Board Meeting with a status update and an updated timeline. Mr. Meade recommended that the
residents be included in the process to give the professionals input. Councilman Bettina made a
motion that the Town Board contact the developers and put them on notice that the repairs need
to be done in a timely manner and that the Highway Superintendent and Town Engineer get back
to the Town Board as to when these improvements will be made. Discussion followed.
Councilman Bettina restated his motion to be a motion to inform the developer that he is on
notice that these improvements have to be made in a timely fashion, based on the input of the
Engineer and Highway Superintendent, by the next Meeting so they can decide what the Board is
going to do. Councilwoman Czarniecki seconded the motion. Discussion followed. The motion
Town of Wappinger Page 2 Printed 6/212010
Ij
Town Board Meeting Minutes May 24, 2010
passed unanimously. Councilman Bettina summarized what needs to take place.
Motion To: inform the developer that he is on notice that these improvements have to be made
in 60 days, based on the input of the Engineer and Highway Superintendent, by the next Meeting
so they can decide what the Board is going to do
RESULT: ADOPTED [UNANIMOUS]

RESOLUTION: 2010-200

the acceptance of partial or excess payments of water and sewer payments; and
WHEREAS, this proposed internal policy modification will decrease costs, reduce
employee collection efforts and limit re -levy balances.

acceptance of partial or excess payments for sewer and water payments, effective immediately
upon adoption.

Councilman Bettina thanked Supervisor Colsey for sending out the information
pertaining to the ceremonies that are taking place around the area this coming Memorial Day.

30 units. Thanks to Inez and the work she has done, they received 33 units. These 33 units will
help 99 patients.
Supervisor Colsey then noted that, on July 16th, from 6:30 PM to 7:00 PM, at the
Wappinger Town Hall, there is going to be an informational hearing regarding the work that is
going to be done on Middlebush Road. Councilman Beale added that there are visibility issues
