The meeting started with the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag,
followed by a moment of silent prayer for our Town and its residents.
The Minutes of the Regular Meeting of June 6, 1988, having previously
been forwarded to the Board Members, were placed before them for their
consideration.
MR. VALDATI moved that the Minutes of June 6, 1988, be and they are
hereby approved, as submitted by the Town Clerk.

Motion Unanimously Carried
Petitions & Communications
Dennis Truett wrote to the Board concerning a potential drainage
problem when future development occurs in the Angel Brook area on
All Angels Hill Road.
Mr. Paggi had received copy of this correspondence and explained that
the connecting pipes that Mr. Truett referred to is between the Angel
Brook and Rockingham Farms Subdivisions and if and when future devel-
opment takes place it will drain to the culvert; basically he is putting
the Town on notice to closely scrutinize this situation if the Angel
Hill development materializes. He has noted this and will advise the
Planning Board so they are aware of it if they receive an application.
Recreation Commissioner Joseph Mastroianni wrote to the Supervisor
in response to the Board's thanks to him for his participation in
the newly formed Senior Citizen Program in the Town Hall. He, in
193
turn praised Supervisor Paino and Councilman Reis for their efforts
on behalf of this program and the gratitude they deserve from the
Town's senior citizens.
Mrs. Smith added that in addition to the present Supervisor, the
former one of many years, Lou Diehl, should be credited since it was
his dream to have such a program and he was the instigator of its
eventual inception.
MRS. PAINO moved to accept this correspondence and place it on file.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
A rezoning application was received from Pete Elder for property
located on Route 376 near Diddell Road to change from R-40 to GB.
Mrs. Paino noted that this will be discussed at a work shop within
the next few weeks.
MRS. PAINO moved to receive the application and place it on file
pending a future work shop meeting.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Correspondence was received from Donna Wardlaw, Esquire, regarding
the necessity of a Draft Environmental Impact Statement on the New
Wappinger Regional Option. Initially Wardlaw Associates indicated
that the Town did not need a supplemental D.E.I.S. but they would
incorporate it in the F.E.I.S.; after a thorough review they have
reversed their original determination and now recommend that a
supplemental document be prepared on this option.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize Saratoga Associates to prepare a
Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement on the New Wappinger
Regional Option.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
At the Board's work shop meeting last week, the question arose on
additional costs for the preparation of this document and Mrs. Paino
stated that the answer was affirmative. It was also brought up by
Ms. Wardlaw and Mr. Bristol that they have exceeded the original
amount allowed which was $100,00.00 for the environmental work; as of
May 20, 1988, the billing to date was $132,000.00 and an additional
amount of $88,000.00 will be required. They requested a resolution
from the Town Board approving the total amount of the two figures.
194
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize a maximum of $120,000 for completion
of the environmental work on the Wastewater Treatment Facilities
Plan, to Saratoga Associates and Wardlaw Associates.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Although the vote on this motion was unanimous, Mr. Valdati did express
concern that a cap of $100,000 was originally set for this work and
now that they have overexpended this by $32,000 the Town Board is
giving them the vehicle to allow the expenditure. He questioned who
authorized this overage and Mrs. Paino responded that noone gave the
authorization, the bills just kept coming in and they now amount to
that sum. Mrs. Smith joined the discussion and pointed out that at
the work shop meeting, Mr. Bristol stated that to date he has received
$132,000; she felt the Comptroller should be the watch dog and make
sure when a cap is put on an expenditure, it should be adhered to and
not allowed to go over that amount without consulting with the Town
Board. She suggested that he should be instructed to watch these
figures much closer since it is turning out to be a tremendous amount
of money being spent. Mrs. Paino agreed that the cap should not be
exceeded, however her recollection of Mr. Bristol's statement was that
the billing was $132,000, not that this was the amount received. Mrs.
Smith differed with this interpretation, insisting that this amount
was paid. Regardless of this, they both agreed that the Comptroller
should be the watch dog of the finances and keep a close count of
items that have a cap put on them.
On a related matter, Mrs. Paino noted that she has been attempting
to set up a meeting with the Tri -Municipal Commission through the
Attorney; it was finally agreed to meet on June 23, 1988 at the Town
Hall, however, after communicating with the Commissioners they
recommended that the Town Board meet with them on that date at 5:30 P.M.
to tour the plant and a meeting following the tour. It was Mrs. Paino's
opinion that this meeting should be held at the Town Hall since it
involves our residents and their money and it would be more convenient
for them. Furthermore, it would be more familiar surroundings for
them and they will be welcome to listen to the discussion and comment
and/or question any of the items that come up.
MRS. PAINO moved that the Town Board tour the Tri -Municipal Sewer
Plant on June 23, 1988 at 5:30 P.M. and at 7:30 P.M. on that day,
hold a work shop meeting with the Tri -Municipal Commission at the
195
Town of Wappinger Town Hall.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mrs. Paino requested that a letter be forwarded to the Tri -Municipal
Commission indicating the action taken by the Town Board relating
to the tour at 5:30 P.M. on June 23, 1988 and work shop at 7:30 at
this Town Hall.
Another related matter was a letter from Julia Stokes, Deputy
Commissioner for Historic Preservation, New York State Office of
parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation regarding their concerns
of archaeological sites on adjacent property to Reese Park which
pertains to the new alternate for the Wastewater Treatment Facilities
Plan.
MRS. PAINO moved to receive this communication and place it on file.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Since the Town Board has authorized Saratoga Associates to prepare
a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement on the new option, a
change of schedule for the SEQR process will be required.
MRS. PAINO moved to accept the following schedule which will supercede
any previous schedule:

The following letter was received from the Engineer:
June 7, 1988
Mrs. Irene Paino, Supervisor
20 Middlebush Road
Wappingers Falls, N.Y.
Reference: The Sewage Pump Station
Pondview
Dear Irene:
I am in receipt of a letter from the Dutchess County Health Dept.
regarding the above Pump Station. As you know, the Town has taken
over this Pump Station and is responsible now for the ownership and
operation of the Pump Station. Please also be advised that Dare
Fitzpatrick of Camo has advised me that the Pump Station is
mechanically in sound operating condition at the present time.
For your information, the major stumbling block for the Town taking
the Pump Station over was the infiltration/inflow into the pump station
causing it to malfunction during times of rain. We are in receipt of
two engineer's reports showing the flow generated in wet and dry
weather to be the same. It was upon receipt of this and only at
that time that the decision for recommendation from this office was
made for the pump station.
I would be more than happy to meet with Mr. Napoli of the Health
Department to discuss this situation. If I can be of further
assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Very truly yours,
s/ Joseph E. Paggi, Jr.
Mrs. Paino noted that complaints were received from Mr. Hussain,
resident of the area where the pump station is located, after the
pump station was accepted by the Town and it was supposedly operating
with no problems. Camo Pollution Control was alerted and inspected
the equipment and corrected a malfunction. Mr. Paggi added that the
pump malfunctioned the weekend following the Town ownership causing
the alarm to go off with considerable noise; the broken equipment
was replaced and everything has been working properly since then.
Mr. Marlow of the Dutchess County Health Department visited the site
with Mr. Paggi and was satisfied with the performance of the mechanism;
he also indicated that Mr. Hussain stated that the pump appears to be
operating better since the Town took it over. Mr. Marlow was advised
that Camo will monitor the pump on a daily basis and report all
malfunctions to that department and any corrective action that they are
required to perform. Mr. Hussain had previously requested that the
pump station be moved away from his home or be placed underground,
however, in Mr. Paggi's opinion it would be cost prohibitive to the
district for either of these alternates. He has had further thoughts
on improving the condition that Mr. Hussain has to live with and if
the Board wishes, he will forward these recommendations to them. The
197
main complaint is not only the noise but the fact that at times when
the pump does malfunction, Mr. Hussain's check valve also malfunctions
and sewerage winds up in his basement.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the Engineer to prepare a report and
recommendations to the Board regarding the alleviation of Mr. Hussain's
problem with the Pondview Pump Station.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Notification of intent to renew their Liquor License was received
from Waldbaums Supermarkets.
MR. REIS moved to receive this correspondence and place it on file
with no comment.

Committee Reports ---
Mr. Valdati ---, Highway Safety, spoke of the dumpster program at
the Highway Garage this previous Saturday which allowed the residents
to dispose of their bulk junk items; he was present in the morning
and observed several unsafe practices. Traffic was backed up
to the Mexican Restaurant on Old Hopewell Road and cars were not
able to turn properly; there were too few law enforcement people to
control the problem; also creating confusion were the residents who
were bringing their kitchen garbage to the Saturday Morning Garbage
Program and trying to break into the lines near the Highway which was
not appreciated by those who were waiting for a long time. He noticed
also that no ID's were required so actually anyone could have brought
their items to this location whether they were residents or not. The
general feeling of the people in line was not one of satisfaction and
there were some who apparently got tired of waiting in line or didn't
even bother to wait, they just dumped their debris along the road.
It appears to him that their request to Mr. Croshier to place dumpsters
at various locations throughout the Town and provide a front end loader
to pick up the bulk items would have been more beneficial to our
residents. This Saturday program proved to be insufficient, as far as
he was concerned.
Mr. Reis spoke of complaints received over the past few weeks from
residents in Fleetwood on low water pressure or no water at all. Camo
198
Pollution Control has investigated and found that the water consumption
has doubled in the past few weeks. At their recommendation notices will
be sent to the Fleetwood residents requesting that they conserve their
water inside and no water to be used outside for swimming pools or
washing cars, etc.
Mrs. Paino added that about li years ago a work shop was held with
the Fleetwood residents to discuss the sulphur content in the water
and also the same problem they are now experiencing of low pressure
or no water in the warm weather. This is also a result of the fact
that the storage tank that was installed in the system many years ago
is inadequate, holding a capacity of only 20,000 gallons a day. The
normal usage is 30 to 40,000 gallons per day and during warm weather
increases to 80 to 85,000 gallons per day. Based on this, Mr. Paggi
recommended the installation of a second storage tank and at that time
they took a straw poll vote and the majority indicated they did not
want to incur such an expenditure. It appears from the number of
complaints received by both Mrs. Paino and Mr. Reis at their offices
and homes, that it is time for another work shop meeting with the
Fleetwood residents to discuss this situation, and Mrs. Paino scheduled
this for July 7, 1988 at 8:00 P.M. with the Town Engineer and Mike
Tremper of Camo Pollution Control. The Engineer was requested to
update the previous report regarding the present day cost of installing
a new storage tank.
Mrs. Paino had comments on the summer cleanup that was conducted at
the Highway Garage and noted that she had received several calls over
the weekend from residents who were distressed over the fact that there
would be no pickup and echoed the same statements made by Mrs. Paino,
Mr. Reis and Mr. Farina when they requested the Highway Superintendent
to conduct a pickup and he refused. Complaints also came in that the
trucks and cars were turned away at 1 P.M. instead of keeping it open
until 2 P.M. as stated in the press. Mr. Farina was present and did
some negotiating to keep the gates open until the designated time.
She mentioned, as did Mr. Valdati that the lines extended down nearly
to Old Hopewell Road and the waiting time was about two hours. There
was a release in the paper this week, apparently by the Highway Superin-
tendent that the dumpsters would also be available to the residents
next Saturday, June 25, 1988, although the Town Board had no official
word of this fact. Mrs. Paino thought he should make them available
199
one or two days a week even if it is evening hours and also consider
our residents in the southern tier of the Town and have similar
arrangements in Chelsea. Mrs. Paino indicated that she has not given
up hope of having a door to door pickup throughout the Town and has
had discussion with the Attorney relating to this.
MRS. PAINO moved to direct the Attorney to the Town to contact Richard
Blair, Regional Field Representative for the C.S.E.A. indicating that
it is the intent of this Town Board to ask the Highway Employees to
conduct a pickup in the Town using the Town highway equipment.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mrs. Paino added that this work could be done in the evening hours
and/or on Saturdays if the men were interested and the pay rate would
be time and one-half. The Town has budgeted $150,000 for cleanup and
could not exceed that amount; also the cost of the Saturday dumpsters
would have to be taken from that amount.

Mr. Farina reported that he has been informed that the Dutchess
County Disaster Preparedness will be holding a seminar on hazardous
waste on Friday, June 24, 1988 at 1:00 P.M. The Town Board has been
invited and if they desire to attend, a reservation must be made prior
to that date.
Mrs. Smith reported that she had attended a Town meeting, as a delegate
for Dutchess County, for the Bicentennial of the Ratification of the
Constitution. They elected delegates for the next convention which
will be held at the Court House on July 26, 1988. She found the meeting
to be very interesting and commented on one woman who was very upset
that there were not enough woman delegates for this meeting.
Mrs. Smith, Dial -A -Ride, meeting on June 29, 1988 which she did not
attend as she was not aware of it. It is her understanding that their
biggest problem is whether the County should operate the buses or should
they contract with an outside firm. There are two schools of thought
on this decision since they apparently had problems when they contracted
previously.
Resolutions ---
A Memo was received from the Zoning Administrator requesting the
return of a Cash Bond in the amount of $1,970.00 to 22 Associates,

money be released.
MR. VALDATI moved to approve the release of $1,970.00 Cash Bond to

Correspondence was received from both the Zoning Administrator and
the Highway Superintendent regarding completion of driveways on
201
various lots in Kendell Farms; the situation was confusing in that
the officials did not conform in the numbers on the lots that were
actually completed to their satisfaction. The developer was requesting
return of $250.00 deposit for each lot that was completed, therefore
the Board needed clarification on these numbers.
MRS. PAINO moved to table action on this matter for further clarification

A request was received from the FEderal Emergency Management Agency
to amend our Local Law on Flood Damage Prevention to change the date
of the Flood Insurance Study. Mrs. Snowden noted that the Local Law
already reflected the proper date and it was quite possible that their
copy had not been conformed properly. They would be notified that this
has been taken care of and a proper copy forwarded to them.
The Town has received a Right -of -Way Deed from Craig O'Donnell on
Wheeler Hill Road for highway improvements. The Attorney and the
Engineer have approved the deed for proper form and content and the

Unfinished Business ---
Correspondence was received from Attorney Albert Roberts representing
John Montfort relating to a right-of-way taking on his property on
Cedar Hill Road. It appears that Mr.Montfort agrees to transfer the
needed land, however prior to relinquishing the land he would like to
view a survey map and requires that the property be fenced along the
common boundary at the Town's expense.
The Attorney to the Town has discussed these items with Mr. Roberts
and pending a further discussion with his client, will contact Mr.
Wood on any additional comments or questions they may have. The
Engineer to the Town has requested clarification of their request for a
fence and is waiting for a response to his letter regarding this issue.

New Business ---
Mr. Farina had previous conversation with a resident who wished to
donate a flag to the Town and since Independence Day is approaching,
felt it appropriate to present it to the Town at this meeting. It was
given to Mr. Farina over the weekend with the request that he read the
following letter:
June 18, 1988
Dear Irene:
Not withstanding McDonald Park (which is actually located in
the Village of Wappingers Falls), I believe that the Wappinger
Town Hall should also fly a POW/MIA Flag to indicate to passersby
that the Town of Wappinger's residents and its administration, still
remember.
And what a more fitting day to raise a flag in their honor and
remembrance than July 4, which not only indicates our continued
independence, but now, the rightfully due independence of our
POW's and accountability of our MIA's.
In this regard, I present to the Town of Wappinger a 3'x5'
all weather POW/MIA Flag to be flown at our Town Hall until all are
home or accounted for.
I trust that you and the Town Board will agree that Wappinger,
as other towns have done, must proclaim that we have not forgotten
either.
In the trust that we are, under God, indivisible, I submit
to the Town Officials, this decision.
Sincerely,
libre s/ Richard S. Clark
