Supervisor Paino opened the Meeting at 7:30 P.M. Present: Irene Paino, Supervisor Vincent Farina, Councilman David Reis, Councilman Constance Smith, Councilwoman Robert Valdati, Councilman Elaine H. Snowden, Town Clerk Others Present: John Klarl, Attorney Joseph E. Paggi, Jr., Engineer The Meeting started with the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag and a moment of silent prayer for our residents and our Town. The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of November 6, 1989 and Special Meetings of November 9, 16 and 20, 1989, having previously been forwarded to all Board Members, were now placed before them for their consideration. Mr. Farina requested that the Nov. 6, 1989 Meeting, Page 237, his "Nay" vote on setting a Special Meeting on December 14, 1989 at Ketcham High School, following the Public Hearing, be changed to "Aye". It was Mr. Valdati who voted "Nay". Mrs. Paino requested an addition on one item to the Preliminary Budget Meeting on November 9, 1989 The adopted Budget should have included Assessor, P.S. A1355.1 from $67,220.00 to $69,220.00. MR. REIS moved that the above stated Minutes, as corrected, be and they are hereby approved, as submitted by the Town Clerk. Seconded by Mr. Farina Motion Unanimously Carried Reports were received from the Town Justices, Receiver of Taxes for September & October, Zoning Administrator, September & October Hydrant Report and Building Inspector for November, 1989. MRS. PAINO moved to accept the reports and place them on file. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried Warrant Lists dated November 30, 1989 presented for payment were as follows: 251 A FUND B FUND HIGHWAY FUND T&A FUND WATER FUND SEWER FUND SPECIAL REVENUE FUND TOTAL $ 34,901.31 82,481.01 148,055.11 2,260.00 10,910.46 49,107.93 4,044.80 $ 331,760.62 MR. REIS moved to authorize the Supervisor to pay the bills as shown on the November 30, 1989 Warrant List. Seconded by Mrs. Smith Motion Unanimously Carried Warrant List dated December 4, 1989 were presented for audit and payment as follows: A FUND B FUND HIGHWAY FUND WATER FUND SEWER FUND SPECIAL REVENUE FUND 19,637.98 10,181.52 23,052.27 11,958.67 39,454.68 1,860.11 106,145.23 MR. REIS moved that the above stated bills be audited and authorize the Supervisor to pay bills on the December 4, 1989 Warrant. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried The Town Clerk noted that if any of the bills were pulled for one reason or another, the totals would change. Petitions & Communications -- A letter was received from Mary & Vincent Lopez on Ingall Street, bordering the Village and the Town, regarding a flooding problem that has existed in their yard for several years; they explain in their correspondence that the stream flows through the Village, under Middlebush Road, emptying into Hunter's Creek. They have investigated and found that the stream is blocked by natural debris on the Town side. Mr. Paggi was copied on the correspondence from Mr. & Mrs. Lopez and noted that the problem was from a branch of Hunters Creek. MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the Engineer to investigate the problem. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried 252 Mr. T. C. Lo, Secretary of the Mid Hudson Chinese Christian Church wrote to the Board concerning water service for their proposed building. Mr. Lo was present with several representatives from their organization and he proceeded to give a brief explanation of their predicament. They have dreamed of having their own church for some time and are finally planning to do this but they are facing many hurdles and a significant one is water service. They are located at All Angels Hill Road near Brown Road and they are within the boundaries of Central Wappinger Water Improvement Area which entitles them to water service, however the main connection is nearly 900' feet from the property and the cost to pipe to that line would be exhorbitant for them. They do have a well on the property, however since they are within the district, they are not allowed to use the well. Mr. Marlow of the Dutchess County Health Department has informed Mr. Lo that if the Town would eliminate them from the district, they will be allowed to use the well and that was what they were requesting from the Town. The cost to hook up to the Town water he claimed, would be $24,000, compared to utilizing the well which would amount to about $4,000. Mr. Paggi concurred with Mr. Lo's statements regarding the property being in the district and use of the well not permitted. The nearest main would be Regency Drive or Alpert Drive at All Angels Hill Road; Regency Drive is closest but Alpert Drive is on the same side so they would not have to cross the road to connect. The Town's policy in the past has been not to remove properties from the district as it sets a precedent and destroys the integrity of the district. It would be up to the Town Board to determine if the property should be removed from the district, however, Mr. Paggi noted that he would recommend against it as he did not think it was a good policy or standard to set. There was a lengthy discussion on solving this problem for the organization and it was agreed that the Department of Health would have to give final decision on the use of the well. Mr. Klarl explained that an agreement would have to be submitted by the organization which would, if approved, be signed by both parties and then submitted to the Health Department. They would stay in the district and continue paying the Benefit Assessment levied on the property, but they would be allowed to use the well according to the standards set by the Health Department, and only with their official approval. The Church would also have to agree to tie into 253 the water system if and when a main became available in front or in close proximity to their property. MRS. PAINO moved that contingent upon receiving a signed Agreement from Mid Hudson Chinese Christian Church stating that they will remain in Central Wappinger Water Improvement Area and pay the Benefit Assessment levied, also agree to hook into the district when and if a water main is available in front of the property, the Town Clerk will forward a letter to Peter Marlow of the Dutchess County Health Department, enclosing copy of Agreement, indicating that the Town is in full support of allowing the Church to use their existing well, per Health Department standards, and request their approval of same. Seconded by Mr. Farina Motion Unanimously Carried Two Notices of Tax Sales were received from the Dutchess County Commissioner of Finance regarding property deeded to the Town which have not been removed from the Tax Rolls as exempt property and outstanding taxes must be paid. MRS. PAINO moved to authorize a transfer from 00-01-1990.4, Contingency to 00-01-1950.4, Taxes and Assessment on Town property, sum not to exceed $5,759.88. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried A response was received fromRalph Manna, Jr. Reginal Director, D.E.C. regarding a proposal submitted to the Town from the Village Lake Committee in lieu of a fine levied on the Town for violations at the Oakwood Sewer Plant. They were prepared to approve in concept the proposal outlined in the letter from the Village but prior to final approval, they needed detailed work plans, costs of the project, and dates for completion. When this information is received it must then be forwarded to Cesare Manfredi, Regional Water Engineer in White Plains. MRS. PAINO moved to forward the correspondence from the D.E.C. to the Village Lake Committee requesting that they provide the Town with the necessary information so they, in turn, can forward it to Mr. Manfredi, as requested. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried 254 The Town Justices wrote to the Town Board concerning damage to one of the court employees' car which they felt occurred in the Town Hall parking lot during court hours when she was working for the Court. They were requesting that she be reimbursed for the cost of the damage to her vehicle. MRS. SMITH moved to forward the correspondence and estimate of damages to the Town's Insurance Carrier for their review and determination. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried The Justices also requested that the Board authorize an armed police officer to patrol the parking lot during court. Mrs. Paino recommended that this be considered by the new Board in January. Mr. Valdati added that the parking lot should be better illuminated as presently, it is very poorly lighted. Yvonne Tompkins, Secretary to the Chelsea Fire District, wrote to the Town Recreation Commission advising them that the Chelsea School House and grounds will no longer be available for use by the Recreation Summer Program. Mrs. Paino noted that Mr. Holt, the Chairman of the Commission has been aware of this fact and has plans to upgrade the Castle Point Recreation area for this use. MRS. PAINO moved to accept this correspondence and place it on file. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried A communication was received from Gilbert Faustel, Chief, Design Section, Bureau of Public Water Supply Protection, New York State Department of Health regarding the North Wappinger Water District, formerly Atlas Water Company. They have reviewed the documents and exhibits pertaining to our application and recommend that no hearing be held, and approval of the application. There were outstanding items that yet had to be submitted by the Town. MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the Engineer to forward these items to Mr. Faustel, as requested. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried 255 Mrs. Paino informed the Board that they have received the Permit from the D.E.C. for the North Wappinger Water District and will have a meeting with the Attorney to discuss bonding for this District. Janet Davis, 2 Pattie Place wrote to the Board re reimbursement of damage cost due to sewer back-up. This claim has been forwarded to the Town's Insurance Agent, Marshall & Sterling. Our Engineer, Peter Marlow of the Health Department and Camo Pollution Control have been discussing a temporary solution to this problem so such an incident is not repeated. A meeting is planned for December 11, 1989 with the Town Board and other Officials to further discuss the problem. A letter was received from Peter Marlow from Dutchess County Health Department regarding the Oakwood Sewer District, Violation of Sanitary Code and this will also be included in the December 11, 1989 meeting. MRS. PAINO moved to accept the correspondence and place it on file. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried Notification of Intent to renew a liquor license was received from Command Airways at the Dutchess County Airport. MR. REIS moved to accept the Notice from Command Airways and place it on file with no comment. Seconded by Mrs. Smith Motion Unanimously Carried Requests were received from Bob Novak to authorize the release of $500 escrow to Solomon & Mei Hui and to Zvi Segal for the release of $2,750 held in escrow for drainage. Mrs. Smith recommended that Mr. Segal's request be tabled since she had calls from residents stating that the problems at the bottom of that hill were resolved, however, those at the top were not. Mr. Paggi noted that the escrow money was for the drainage work done at the bottom to prevent the water from flooding over from his property on to Mrs. Parsons. This was accomplished by laying the pipes southerly on All Angels Hill Road and then turning into his property, therefore avoiding the Parsons' property and this was done by obtaining an extended permit from the County. According to the original plot plan, Mrs. Smith noted, they are supposed to have storm gutters piped down to the road drainage and they do not have them installed. She reiterated that this should be tabled until they check with the Building Inspector. 256 When asked if he felt that the work the Town was holding the escrow for was completed, Mr. Paggi said from his perspective it was, however they could,perh4Dsrelease the escrow pending a. report from the Building Inspector regarding plot plan requirements, etc. In answer to Mr. Farina's question about work on Parsons' property, Mr. Paggi said it was done on the County Right -of -Way and Segals and if the Parsons or anyone else can prove it is on their property, it will have to be dug up and removed. MR. REIS moved to release the $2,750 escrow money to Zvi Segal conditional upon developer supplying Town with certified survey map showing location of installed pipe being totally within the County Right -Of -Way and Lands of Now or Formerly Segal, with Certificate to Town of Wappinger, and Building Inspector approval. Seconded by Mrs. Paino Roll Call Vote: 4 Ayes Mrs. Smith ---Nay MR. VALDATI moved to return $500 escrow to Solomon & Mei Hui, at the request of Bob Novak, and upon the recommendation of the Building Inspector. Seconded by Mr. Farina Motion Unanimously Carried Another request was received from Michael Cain for the release of $250 driveway permit, 1 Relyea Terrace; recommendations were received from both the Highway Superintendent and the Building Inspector to release this money. MRS. PAINO moved to release the $250 driveway escrow to Michael Cain at the recommendation of the Highway Superintendent and the Building Inspector. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried Attorney Michael Kistner, representing Estate Builders of Dutchess wrote to the Board requesting permission to become a tenant to the Rockingham Farms Sewer District for property on Brothers Road. They cannot get final approval from the County Health Department due to work done on the sewer system and they therefore petitioned the Town to become a tenant to the sewer district. They will have to obtain an easement, if the request is granted, and the pipe installation and maintenance will be their responsibility. There is no reason why it 257 could not be granted; the effect of adding one home to the sewer district would be minimal, however there are administrative items for the Board to consider, that being the private easement on the property needed for the connection. This evidently needed further discussion and Mrs. Paino recommended that this matter be referred to a work shop in 1990 for the new Town Board to consider since there were other parties involved. Several Reports were received from the Engineer on various items, the first was the Carlquist Drainage. He has visited the site and now requests permission from the Board to do survey work in order to define the problem. MRS. SMITH moved to authorize the Engineer to the Town to do the survey work relating to the Carlquist Drainage problem. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried Mr. Paggi met with Tom Kane of HiView Road regarding a controversy on the Stop Signs that were authorized for that location, the problem being limited sight distance. They determined that in order to get the proper sight distance, about five trees will have to be removed. Mr. Kane has no problem with four trees coming down, however the fifth one is a blue spruce which he does not want to part with. At this point it is difficult to determine if this particular tree has to be removed in order to install the Stop Sign at the location that the residents want and the only way they can make this determination is to do a detailed survey which must be a Town Board decision. MR. VALDATI moved to authorize the Engineer to the Town to perform the detailed survey required to determine the amount of tree removal necessary to install a Stop Sign on HiView Road. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried In response to a letter from a resident on Cooper Road who disagreed with the Stop Sign placement on Smithtown Road, Mr. Paggi made a site inspection and felt that the Stop Sign was properly placed as the main traffic flow follows the Smithtown Road corridor. There was the possibility that another Stop Sign could be placed at the intersection of Cooper Road with Smithtown Road if the Board so desired; he mentioned that our Highway Superintendent is in agreement 258 with this. MR. REIS moved to authorize the Attorney to the Town to prepare a Local Law for the placement of an additional Stop Sign at the intersection of Cooper Road with Smithtown Road. Seconded by Mrs. Smith Motion Unanimously Carried The last report from the Engineer was in response to a letter from Attorney John Reed regarding the Nolan sewer hook-up on New Hackensack Road. These residents had originallygranted a sewer easement to the original developers of the Wildwood Sewer District in exchange for two sewer taps for their lot and an adjacent lot. When the Town took over the sewer district in 1975 there was no mention of the two sewer taps. The Nolans' are now hooked into the system and have requested, through their Attorney, to be placed on the billing list as a regular customer of this sewer district, not as a tenant, and they also wish to have confirmation from the Town that they acted accordingly in connecting to the system. Mr. Klarl had reviewed the correspondence on this matter and agreed to their requests. If the Board desires to approve the requests, as recommended by the Engineer to the Town, an Agreement has been drawn up which requires the signature of the Supervisor. MRS. PAINO moved to confirm the Nolans' two hook-ups to the Wildwood Sewer District and they will be entered into the District billing system at the regular rate charged to the District customers. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried MR. FARINA moved to authorize the Supervisor to sign the Agreement with the Nolans' outlining the items specified by the Attorney and Engineer to the Town, regarding their hook-up to the Wildwood Sewer District. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried A Summons With Notice was served on the Town Clerk by Dutchess Sand and Gravel, Inc. against the Town Board and the Town of Wappinger. During the past few years, Mr. Ed Shelley (Dutchess Sand & Gravel) has applied for a soil mining permit for a project that would take from five to ten years. The Town Board has consistently objected to granting such a permit for this activity on Robinson Lane, not wishing to subject the residents of the area to this inconvenience. 259 There is also the concern that this project will be close to the Town aquifer, Sprout Creek, which supplies water to over 2,000 residents in CWWIA. They are now responding to the Town's firm stand by submitting a declaratory judgment against the Town. MRS. PAINO moved to refer the Summons With Notice from Dutchess Sand and Gravel, Inc. to the Attorney to the Town, to answer and defend on behalf of the Town. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried Three requests were received from Otto Klassen which included the release of the Maintenance Bonds on Schuele Drive and Peel Lane and the return of $250 driveway escrow for Lot 12, East Salem Road. Recommendations to release the bonds and driveway escrow were received from Kenneth Croshier, Highway Superintendent. MR. REIS moved to release the Maintenance Bonds on Schuele Drive and Peel Lane and return the driveway escrow in the amount of $250.00 for Lot 12, East Salem Road to Otto Klassen, at the recommendation of the Highway Superintendent. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried A Memo was received from the Building Inspector requesting the return of $100 to Paul Hunt who was overcharged when he applied for Building Permit #89-497. MR. REIS moved to return $100 to Paul Hunt due to overcharge on Building Permit 89-497, as recommended by the Building Inspector. Seconded by Mrs. Smith Motion Unanimously Carried MRS. PAINO set the Year End Meeting for December 28, 1989 at 7:30 P.M. Seconded by Mr. Reis Motion Unanimously Carried MRS. SMITH moved to set the Reorganizational Meeting for January 2, 1990 at 7:30 P.M. Seconded by Mrs. Paino Motion Unanimously Carried A telephone request was received from Frank Borquist from the New Hackensack Fire District for the use of one Town voting machine for their annual Election on December 12, 1989. 260 MR. REIS moved to grant permission to the New Hackensack Fire District to use one of the Town's voting machines for their annual election on December 12, 1989 and make their arrangements for pick-up and return with the Town Highway Department. Seconded by Mr. Farina Motion Unanimously Carried Committee Reports --- Mr. Valdati reported that an interim solution to the drainage problem on Ketchamtown Road has been completed and the Town owed a vote of thanks to Mr. Cauda for his support in this endeavor in helping the community. Mr. Reis had no reports for this meeting. Mrs. Paino joined Mr. Valdati in thanking Mr. Cauda and suggested that this be in the form of an official letter from the Town Board thanking the Cauda Family for their cooperation in resolving the drainage problem on a temporary basis. Mrs. Paino reported on a meeting this past Friday with Building Inspector, Tim Classey, Engineer, Jay Paggi and herself with Pete Marlow, Dave Ruff, Steve Capowski and Joe Carter of the Dutchess County Health Department regarding the work at the Fairchild building. They have been extremely cooperative, Mrs. Paino continued, they have tested some wells in the area; they will meet with Mr. Classey to determine which other wells in the area will be tested. She requested that a note of thanks be sent to the aforementioned representatives of the Health Department, on behalf of the Town Board for coming to our assistance so readily. They will follow up with the results of these tests within the next two to three weeks and additional information will be forthcoming. During the interim, Mrs. Paino and Mr. Classey will be coordinating a meeting with representatives from Fairchild, the Attorney to the Town and a representative from the D.E.C. Information has been received from the State Department of Health indicating that the work at the Fairchild location is proceeding properly. Mr. Farina, good news from cable is that services are changing and Mr. Erichsen has reported that Channel 33 will become the financial news network twenty-four hours a day. Another premium channel is being added, called Sports Channel America which is being added to Channel 37 --- and the bad news is that cable rates are going up 261 effective January 1, 1990, the basic cable rate will go from $14.50 to $15.50 per month, Senior Citizens meeting eligibility requirements will continue to receive 30% discount on the first outlet on the monthly basic rate. The option for expanded service which is currently $4.50 per month will be raised to $5.00 a month. Mrs. Smith has informed him that the area in Ward 4 where residents have been patiently waiting for cable, will soon receive this service and are now being solicited to subscribe to same. Mrs. Smith, Personnel reported that the Fire Inspector is attending a school December 4, 6, 11 7 13th, 1989 at no cost to the Town. Since he is attending at night, Mr. Liebermann does not need a motion from the Town Board allowing him to attend, but this is a point of information. Gordon Hirt, Wappinger County Legislature was invited to speak to the public on County activities of interest to the Town. He first thanked the Board for appointing him to the County Legislature last year which led to his candidacy for this year's election, uncontested and successful. He was happy for the opportunity to serve the Town. He then reported that the Public Hearing on the County Budget would be tomorrow night (Tuesday, Dec. 5th) at the Bardavon Theatre at 7 P.M., for those who were interested in attending. Resolutions --- A Memo was received from Ralph Holt, Chairman of the Recreation Commission requesting a transfer from 00-06-7140.1 Personal Services - Playground to 00-06-7110.1 Personal Services - General Maintenance in the amount of $2,000 due to shortage in that fund. MRS. SMITH moved to authorize the transfer as requested by the Recreation Commission Chairman.

REIS moved to award the contract for Emergency Work - Ketchamtown Road Drainage to Dave Alexander, Inc., low bidder, total cost of $15,120.00, at the recommendation of the Engineer. Seconded by Mr. Farina Motion Unanimously Carried The following Resolution was offered by SUPERVISOR PAINO who moved its adoption: WHEREAS, the Town of Wappinger recognizes the scourge of substance abuse on our community; and WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger is desirous of protecting the health and well-being of the school children of our community and, WHEREAS, the areas around the schools in Wappinger should be safe for our children, free from those who would sell controlled substances to them.

Evans Elementary School, Wappingers Junior High School, Myers Corners Elementary School and Roy C. Ketcham High School. The "Drug -Free School Zone" will include those portions of those properties and roadways which lie within those zones, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Dutchess County Sheriff's Department and the New York State Police shall be thereby authorized to follow Title 21 of the U.S. Code, Section 845A, providing that persons manufacturing, selling or distributing narcotics, controlled substances, marijuana and their derivatives within one thousand feet (1,000') of any public property or college or university shall be guilty of a Class C. Felony., and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that by reason thereof the penalty under Section 841B of Title 21 provides for doubling of the mandatory ten (10) year to life imprisonment penalty and the maximum $4,000,000 (four million) fine if found guilty of certain quantities of manufacture, sale or distribution of those substances within the above-mentioned "Drug -Free School Zones" in the Town of Wappinger. Seconded by: Councilman Reis Roll Call Vote: 5 Ayes 0 Nays Copies of this Resolution were to be forwarded to the Dutchess County Sheriff's Department, the New York State Police and the Town Patrol, also the Wappinger School District. The Engineer and Highway Superintendent will coordinate in the language and placing of signs. A voucher was received from Sun Up Enterprises, Inc. for the release of their retainage fee in the amount of $1,800.00 for work done in October 1988 at the Spook Hill Recreation Park. A recommendation was received from the Engineer that the project was finalized and the 263 retainage could be released. MR. VALDATI moved to release the retainage fee in the amount of $1,800.00 to Sun Up Enterprises, Inc. for maintenance bond on Rest Room Addition at the Spook Hill Recreation Park, at the recommendation of the Engineer to the Town. Seconded by Mrs. Smith Motion Unanimously Carried Unfinished Business --- Mr. & Mrs. John Gordon wrote to the Board regarding their drainage problem at 36 Widmer Road caused by water running across the road from 37 Widmer Road. After visiting the site, the Engineer and the Highway Superintendent felt that the installation of a berm across the driveway would solve the situation, but according to Mrs. Gordon's letter the problem is not corrected and the water is running into the property and flooding it. They plan to visit the site again when the weather warms up and we have rainy weather. A response was received from Joseph Grogan, Dutchess County Department of Public Works regarding a drainage problem at Cedar Knolls on New Hackensack Road. It was the opinion of our Engineer that this problem was not the responsibility of the Town and he suggested that we contact the County for their opinion. Mr. Grogan concurs with Mr. Paggi that it is not a Town problem and has also determined that there is no County liability involved. He suggested that the problem may simply be due to the natural contours of the adjacent lands. If the Town was taking the stand that this was a private property matter, then this correspondence should be forwarded to Mr. Salece at the Cedar Knolls address, according to the Engineer. New Business --- Correspondence was received from Shaker, Travis and Quinn in regard to the heating/hot water system. When the system was turned on for the winter season, there were certain items they felt needed replacement and/or repair such as ---boiler relief valve leaking, boiler pressure regulator defective, replace hose bib drain on hot water heater, replace relief valve on water heater, etc. The cost of this work would total $411.96. A proposal was submitted for signature of the Supervisor, if approved. MRS.SMITH moved to authorize the expenditure of $411.96 to Shaker, Travis & Quinn, Inc. for the work proposed and authorize the Supervisor to sign the Agreement. Seconded by Mr. Farina Motion Unanimously Carried Two Claims were received against the Town regarding false arrests and forwarded to our Insurace Carrier for handling. Mr. Valdati asked that a letter be directed to our Agent requesting a report on how these claims were handled and if there any involvement of our Town Patrol. There was no other business to come before the Board. Mrs. Paino took this opportunity to offer her support and help to the Supervisor -Elect, Connie Smith.

Fund Total Seconded by Mr. Farina $ 17,184.44 2,636.52 22,276.05 10,782.64 36,811.35 1,860.11 $ 91,551.11 Motion Unanimously Carried Another item not on the Agenda for this meeting was brought up by Mrs. Paino, which she mentioned was discussed at a work shop and should be considered by the Board. The item, a change in John DeCarlo's salary at a previous meeting, should be adjusted due to factors that had not been considered. One was that the 2i hours that the highway men have received over the years was not factored in their motion setting his salary at $26,100.00; the factor of longevity with the Town was something else to consider. The final amount after due consideration of these facts was $28,460.38 and it was Mrs. Paino's opinion that this was a fair adjustment. MRS. PAINO moved to amend a previous motion setting a salary for John DeCarlo for 1989 at 26,100 and adjust this figure to $28,460.38 annual salary for 1989, retroactive to November 6, 1989. Seconded by Mr. Farina Motion Unanimously Carried MRS.
