Discussions A. United Soccer Jim Purdy, representing United Soccer, was on hand to give a presentation to the Board concerning the condition of the fields at Airport Drive. When the program began, it served 250 kids using only the fields at Rockingham. For the last five years, the program averaged about 1200-1300 kids and now also uses the fields on Airport Drive. Mr. Purdy stated that the Airport Drive fields were constructed in a hurry and as a flatland with no grade. The fields are situated along Airport Drive so that the water runs off onto the playing area. Several weeks of fall and spring seasons were lost due to unplayable fields caused by flooding. Rockingham Park was under four feet of water twice in the past 18 months. He went on to say that, with as many kids as the program has, the fields are in use all of the time. He also pointed out that the concession stand, fencing, equipment, nets, and other expenses were paid for by the program. My. Purdy then turned the discussion toward the turf field project. The Soccer Program has been putting money away to help finance the project. The Soccer Programs board voted to provide 10% of the project cost and would appreciate anything that the Town Board could do to help. Supervisor Ruggiero closed the discussion at 7:47 PM. B. Recycle Center ID Supervisor Ruggiero began the discussion by giving a recap of the history behind the Recycle Center. The main issue concerning the recycle center is that residents of other towns are attempting to gain access to the center. Prior to 2002, the Town gave annual permits for the Town of Wappinger resident's cars. Every year, the permit would expire and need to be renewed. Since then, the program has grown to about 4000 permits. Due to problems that have arisen, a new process and method of monitoring the program is needed. Town Clerk Chris Masterson then gave a presentation concerning the proposed changes to the program. The Town Clerk explained that the main problems with the center include: the effectiveness of using stickers, the household trash tickets, the use of trailers and U -Haul trucks, and the way that residents are identified. To solve all of the problems, the Town could use an Identification Card system to issue permits and monitor usage. The ID cards would be created at the Town Clerk's Office and would include: a photo ID, name, address, date of birth, a barcode, and all of the license plates that the resident has registered to his name. The resident would use that ID to gain access to the Recycle Center. A Town Highway employee would scan the ID using a handheld scanner. The system would also allow for reports to be printed, abuse to be monitored, and . expirations to be flagged. Councilman Paoloni asked whether more than one person in a family would share a card. The Town Clerk explained that each resident would have his/her own card. That would allow future plans of a universal card that would allow access to all Town programs. Councilman Valdati asked what would happen if a resident only had a small vehicle and needed to borrow a larger vehicle to bring items to the recycle center. The Town Clerk explained that he and Supervisor Ruggiero had talked about offering one -day passes to accommodate those types of situations. Councilman Paoloni recommended setting the program to produce flag, or "kick - out", reports to help identify those that abuse the program. There were no other comments or questions. Supervisor Ruggiero closed the discussion at 8:03 PM. C. Security for Town Parks -Joe Ennesser Supervisor Ruggiero began the discussion by pointing out that there has been an increase in vandalism at parks throughout the Town and Southern Dutchess area. Two bathrooms at Town of Wappinger parks have recently been destroyed. The Town is now looking into a camera system that would monitor certain Town properties and alert the Sheriff's Office at the dispatch center. The dispatch would then send a patrol to the affected site. Joe Ennesser elaborated on the plan and introduced John Anderson of ADT. Mr. Anderson began his part of the presentation and provided the Board with a packet of information. The packet included a diagram of the grounds at Carnwath and where the security system would be implemented. It also included the quote and estimate worksheet for the project. Mr. Anderson then explained how the system would work and how it would be monitored. Councilman Valdati asked about ongoing fees that would be billed to the town. Mr. Anderson explained that the annual fee would be just over $1400. Supervisor Ruggiero then asked Sgt. Watterson to explain how the Sheriff s Office would use the system. Sgt. Watterson replied that the cameras would come on when motion was detected. The dispatch would be alerted and then would make a radio call to have a patrol react. This would be beneficial to the patrolman in that he/she would not be responding blindly Town of Wappinger Page 3 Printed 7/12/2006 Regular Meeting Minutes July 5, 2006 to the activity. Supervisor Ruggiero commented that the Town has interviewed approximately five firms to address this project and ADT was the only one that could provide all aspects that the Town proposed. Councilman Valdati asked how long the contract would be for. Mr. Anderson replied that it would be a two year agreement. Supervisor Ruggiero asked if there were any further questions. There were none. Supervisor Ruggiero then closed the discussion at 8:22 PM. D. Carnwath Porch Repairs - Don Schwartz Don Swartz was present to give the Town Board an update on the status of the repairs at Carnwath. Since the last meeting, Mr. Swartz has contacted Stacey Matson-Zuvic of OPRHP and walked her through the Town's intentions concerning the Camwath project. At that time, Mrs. Matson-Zuvic seemed to be in agreement. After the meeting, Mrs. Matson-Zuvic sent a letter to the contrary, saying that the State directs the Town to look into the study further. Mr. Swartz recommended that the Town decide how it wants to proceed from this point. If the Town accepts the grant money, it may face the same sort of problems throughout the entire renovation of Camwath. Supervisor Ruggiero commented that he has reached out to Assemblyman Miller about this matter. He explained to the Assemblyman that the State is contradicting its own safety rules by setting such preservation requirements. The Assemblyman has agreed to meet with Supervisor Ruggiero. Discussion followed. The Board discussed what grant money would be in jeopardy if the Town did not follow the State's direction. Attorney to the Town, Al Roberts, explained that the State would have the right to review all renovations once the Town accepted this grant money. If the State disagreed with any repairs made to the mansion, all monies received and future grants could be at risk. Supervisor Ruggiero summed up and stated that he would contact Assemblyman Miller and Senator Saland for assistance. With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Ruggiero closed the discussion at 8:39 PM. VI.
