The Regular Bimonthly Meeting of the Town Board of the Town of
Wappinger was held on May 16, 1988, at the Town Hall, 20 Middlebush
Road, Town of Wappinger, Dutchess County, New York.
Supervisor Paino opened the Meeting at 7:50 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:
Thomas Wood, Attorney
Joseph E. Paggi, Jr., Engineer
All joined in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag followed by a moment
of silent prayer for the Town of Wappinger and its residents.
The Minutes of the Regular Meetings of April 22 and May 2, 1988,
having previously been forwarded to the Board Members, were now placed
before them for their consideration.
Mr. Valdati referring to the May 2, 1988 Minutes, stated that they
were deficient in that they did not include his comments regarding
the cut in the Route 9 Median for a left hand turn into Guardian Storage.
At the time Mr. Valdati voted against the motion he noted that the D.O.T.
policy for making cuts in the median is that they be made only for major
shopping centers, or access to a college entering; these are the only
two circumstances mentioned. At a previous work shop they had discussed
the traffic at that particular intersection and it was his opinion that
Mr. Redl's problem should not become the interest of the Town of Wappinger
to supercede safety or progress. It is not just an issue of trucks, he
contended, there is a tremendous amount of traffic for rental and return
of video tapes at the subject location. He believed it to be an obvious
hazard to take this action and that it would only serve the business
interest of one individual as opposed to the successful implementation
of the reconstruction of Route 9. It was not, he continued, the Town's
business to provide alternatives for this problem of Mr. Redl -- it is
the safety of the residents and others who travel the road that this
Town should be concerned.
MR. VALDATI moved that the Minutes of April 22, and May 2, 1988, be
and they are hereby approved, with the additions requested in the
May 2nd, 1988 Meeting, as submitted by the Town Clerk.

Seconded by Mrs. Smith

Mr. Valdati noted that the Dog Control Officer had not submitted his

Petitions & Communications ---
A request was received from the Zoning Administrator for the Planning
Board Members, Zoning Board of Appeals Members and himself to attend
the New York Planning Federation Institute on October 16 through the
18th, 1988, at the Nevele Hotel. He indicated that he would attend,
if allowed the time, at no expense to the Town; the other members
would reserve minimum cost accommodations and the allowable mileage.

legitimate expenses would be a Town charge plus $.22.5 mileage, and Mr.
Levenson be given the time to attend the conference.

Recreation Commission:
The Recreation Commission is extremely interested in getting
the property line between the barn and Mr. Fulton re -aligned as
soon as possible to prevent any possible problems.
We are asking your help and direction in getting approval
for this project. If I should write a letter for the next Town
Board Meeting, please let me know.
Sincerely,
s/ Ralph J. Holt
MR. REIS moved to authorize the Engineer to the Town to contact Mr.
Holt to discuss this matter with him.
Seconded by Mrs. Smith
Motion Unanimously Carried
A Notice of Intent to renew a Liquor License was received from
David Chippari, DBA Tony's Pizza Barn and Deli located in the Wappinger

The Draft Environmental Impact Statement on the Dutchess County
Resource Recovery Agency was forwarded to the Board stating that
public comments were due on this document by June 29, 1988. It is
available in the Town Clerk's Office if anyone is interested in
reviewing it.
MR. FARINA moved to authorize the Engineer to review the document
and submit written comments on behalf of the Town of Wappinger.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Normalyn Powers, Executive Director of the Dutchess County Association
for Senior Citizens, Inc. wrote to the Supervisor regarding the position
of Director for the Town's Senior Citizen Program. It was explained
that only one resume was received from a Wappinger resident in response
to the ad that was placed in the Poughkeepsie Journal. The most
appropriate individual, in Ms. Powers's opinion was Jeannie Vlah,
however, she was not a resident of the Town; a request was made in this
communication to waive the requirement of Town residency on this position.
MR. REIS moved to waive the residency requirements for the position of
Director of the Benior Citizen Program in the Town of Wappinger.
169
Ms. Powers had also forwarded a resume submitted by Jeanne Vlah
for the position of Director, to all Board Members.
MRS. PAINO moved to hire Jeanne Vlah, through the Dutchess County
Association for Senior Citizens, Inc. as Director of the Town of
Wappinger Senior Citizen Program, at an annual salary of $10,920.00.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Correspondence was received from the Engineer to the Town regarding
the acceptance of the Pondview Pump Station by the Town; also received
was correspondence from a resident of that area.
Mr. Farina explained that the Pondview Roads were accepted last year
by the Town but at that time we did not accept the pump station as
there has been a history of problems with it and Camo Pollution Control
has been called upon many times to repair the pump. The Engineer
added that the pump station is located on Bell Aire Lane, actually in
front of this resident's home, (Tanveer Hussain, 18 Bell Aire Lane).
Mr. Paggi reviewed the history of the malfunctioning of the pump
station which has been very disturbing to Mr. Hussain due to the
harsh and unbearable noise when this happens. It appears that they
have solved the problem and it has been functioning properly although
last week Mr. Hussain reported that the pump was not operating again.
This, they found, was a normal stoppage and they were required to replace
parts. The resident is unhappy with the situation and has requested
the Town to relocate the pump station to another location where it won't
be so disturbing to his family. If the Town were to consider this a
study would be required by the Engineer and he explained this is the
purpose of Mr. Hussain's letter if it is the intent of the Town to
proceed with his request. Mr. Paggi pointed out that it would be
a capital project to relocate the pump station and in response to
a question from the audience, stated that the station had to be in
that location prior to Mr. Hussain's purchase of his home since he
had to be provided with sewer facilities from it. In his report,
Mr. Paggi recommended that the Town accept the pump station and that
building permits be issued for the remainder of the thirteen -lots in
the rear of the Pondview Subdivision.
MR. FARINA moved that the Town accept the Pondview Pump Station,
based on the recommendation of the Engineer to the Town.
Seconded by Mrs. Paino Motion Unanimously Carried
170
Mr. Paggi recommended that Camo Pollution Control be notified of
this action and instructed to include inspection of the pump station
on their daily inspection schedule.
A report was received from the Engineer on the Wastewater Facility
Report, F.G.E.I.S. regarding his proposal to relocate the plant
to the south on lands other than the Reese Park site; a map was
enclosed with the correspondence. The Alternate was indentified as
2A.
11110/ MRS. PAINO moved to accept the correspondence with enclosed map and
Z
L
authorize the Town Clerk to forward a letter to Saratoga Associates
requesting that they include Alternate 2A in the Final Generic
Environmental Impact Statement.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
In reply to Mrs. Smith's question on whether this new Alternate would
require the procedure of the S.E.Q.R. process, the Attorney noted
that based on his discussion with Saratoga Associates as well as their
legal consultant on environmental issues, it is their contention that
it is a move only within 500' and none of the intrical design will be
changed in the system, that at this point it can still be addressed
prior to receipt of the F.G.E.I.S. The Attorney presumed that there
will be additional cost involved for including the new Alternate.
Mrs. Paino recommended that another work shop be set up with the Board,
representatives from Saratoga Associates and the Town Comptroller to
discuss any additional costs the Town may incur.
Mr. Valdati pursued this issue, stating that objections were received
at the public hearing on the Reese site, but there has been no
opportunity for the public to speak for or against this new Alternate,
why wasn't it included with the others. Mr. Paggi discussed their
reasoning and also advised the Board that another public hearing will
be held and comments can be submitted ten days after this hearing.
Mrs. Smith requested the Attorney to check into this question regarding
the S.E.Q.R. process on Alternate 2A to make sure it is not required.
Mrs. Paino asked the Engineer to forward a copy of his report and map
to the Reeses'.
Committee Reports ---
Mr. Valdati, regarding the monthly report from the Dog Control Officer
requested that he be informed, in writing, that this report must be
submitted each month.
171
Mrs. Paino noted that she did speak to Mr. Wells today and he apologized
for this omission, said he just didn't have a chance to get it done but
he would have it ready for the next meeting.
Mr. Reis, regarding the Senior Citizen Program, thanked the Supervisor
and Recreation Commissioner Joe Mastroianni for the time and effort
they have put into this program to get it off the ground.
MR. REIS moved to forward a letter to Mr. Mastroianni thanking him
for all his help.
Seconded by Mrs. Paino
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. Farina, Saturday Morning Garbage Program, asked that Mr. Fanuele
be notified that the fee for the Senior Citizens will be $2.50 per
30 gallon bag, all others will be $3.00.
Mrs. Smith had no reports for this meeting.
Resolutions ---
Renewal of the Lease with U.S. Cablevision for the Antenna was placed
before the Board for their consideration.
Mrs.-Paino referred this matter to Mr. Farina, who has been working
diligently with the CATV Committee to resolve the problems we have had
with the company and has been successful in his efforts. The lease
renewalhas been tabled several months pending cooperation from the
cable company in their service to our residents.
Mr. Farina explained that the lease is for the purpose of placing an
antenna on the water tower in the Hilltop Water District and the amount
realized from the lease is placed in the account for that District.
Now that the company has responded in a positive manner to their
subscribers, there is no need to table the matter any longer.
MR. FARINA moved to approve the Lease with U.S. Cablevision and authorize
the Supervisor the sign said Lease.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
In regard to the C.S.E.A contract for the Highway Employees, Mrs.
Paino noted that the Attorney has been working with the Comptroller,
Dennis Lasowski, and the C.S.E.A. representative, Richard Blair and
representatives from the Highway Department to negotiate this contract.
Mr. Reis thanked the Attorney and the Comptroller for the time they
have expended in order to make the revisions in the contract that are
agreeable to all.

MR. VALDATI moved to accept the C.S.E.A. Contract for the Town of
Wappinger Highway Employees and authorize the Supervisor to sign
said contract.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
The terms of the Conservation Advisory Council will expire in June
1988 and the matter of appointments to this Council was placed before
the Board for their consideration.
A recommendation was received from the present Chairman, Matthew
Landi who will be leaving the area shortly, that the three active
members of the Council be reappointed ---Cathy Peredes, Richard
Dobbins and Florence Graff. Mrs. Paino recommended that these
appointments be made at the next meeting when hopefully, other
individuals will be interested and available.
MR. FARINA moved to send a letter of thanks to the Chairman, Matthew
Landi who has been a fine attribute to this Town with his efforts as
Chairman of the Conservation Advisory Council, and wish him success in
in his future endeavors.
Seconded by Mrs. Paino
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. Farina mentioned that much effort was put into a presentation by
Mr. Landi on the Green Fly Wetland and its redesignation; he took the
existing Council and made a real working machine out of it. He deserves
a well felt thank you from the Town and its residents; he will be
sorely missed.
The Recreation Commission had previously requested the Town Board
to go out to bid on a tractor as they were investing too much money
repairing the old ones.
MR. REIS moved to authorize the Recreation Commission to go to bid
the on a new tractor.

Motion Unanimously Carried

A Petition to establish Myers Corners II Water District was received
approximately two years ago from Douglas C. Schner, representative of
the Pizzagalli Development Company. At that time, Mr. Schner requested
that a public hearing be set on this matter.
(The Order and Resolution Setting the Public Hearing for this District
is attached hereto and made part of the Minutes af this Meeting).
A communication was received from the New York State Department of
Transportation on the Route 9 Myers Corners Road to Cottam Hill Road
proposed construction, relating to construction of sidewalks required
for bus shelters at the Wappinger Plaza. Enclosed was a resolution
for the Town Board's consideration approving the sidewalks and accepting
the responsibility of maintaining these sidewalks.
Mrs. Paino explained that there had previously been a work shop on
this matter with representatives of the D.O.T. and although they
expected representatives from the Wappinger Plaza to attend, they could
not be present to discuss the maintenance of these sidewalks; the intent
of the Town was that perhaps they could jointly be responsible for the
upkeep of the sidewalks.
MRS. PAINO moved to table action pending receipt of a plan showing
the layout of the sidewalks and comments from the Highway Superintendent
regarding the maintenance .
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
If the Town did accept this responsibility of maintaining these walks,
the recommendation of the Highway Superintendent was required since
his department would be burdened with the extra work.
A Public Hearing having been held on May 16, 1988 by the Town Board
on a proposed Local Law on Interim Zoning, the matter was placed
before them for their consideration.
MRS. PAINO moved to adopt Local Law #11 of 1988 as follows:
LOCAL LAW REGULATING FOR AN INTERIM PERIOD THE ISSUANCE OF BUILDING
PERMITS IN THE TOWN OF WAPPINGER, PENDING COMPLETION AND REVIEW OF
AN UPDATED AND REVISED COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN AND CONTEMPLATED
AMENDMENT OF THE ZONING ORDINANCES BY THE TOWN BOARD.
BE IT ENACTED, by the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger,
Dutchess County, New York, as follows:
1. SHORT TITLE
This Local Law shall be known and may be cited as the "Interim
Zoning Law" of the Town of Wappinger.
174
II. LEGISLATIVE INTENT AND FINDINGS OF FACT
A. The Town of Wappinger, Dutchess County, New York, concerned about
land use and development trends in the Town and the region and the
standards contained in the Town's current development regulations,
has had prepared an updated Master Plan and intends to prepare an
appropriate Zoning Ordinance. For this purpose, the Town has and
intends to continue to conduct research, studies and surveys and
will present findings and recommendations to the public through
informational meetings and formal public hearings both by the Planning
Board and the Town Board. This procedure will lead to the adoption
of a revised Master Plan and the preparation of and adoption of
necessary amendments to the zoning ordinances and subdivision

that appropriate statutory measures must be taken during this period
to protect the public interest by preserving the integrity of the
proposed revised Master Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The Town Board
also finds that continuation of present zoning regulations during the
interim period may destroy the integrity of the Master Plan and its
basic purposes, comprehensive aspects and intentions, in that, since
the adoption of the Master Plan now in effect, the Town has experienced
localized ground water shortages and pollution, building on steep
slopes, infrastructure deficiencies, and the lack of affordable
housing, and the rapid escalation in land values. Pursuant to
authority duly vested in it, it is the intention of the Town Board
to protect said Master Plan and to preserve its intended objectives

interim regulations during preparation and consideration of the
aforesaid Master Plan and prospective changes in the zoning ordinances
and thereby protect the public interest and welfare and prevent
premature land development that could prejudice the integrity and
objectives of the Master Plan or result in the establishment of land
use patterns that may be inconsistent with and in violation of the
intent of the revised Master Plan. The interim zoning legislation
is intended to supplement existing zoning laws in the Town of
Wappinger by adding area to the minimum lot size required in each
residential and business districts with all requirements of the
supplemented zoning designation in the present law to apply as is

Motion Unanimously Carried
The Attorney wrote to the Board regarding the Sludge Removal Contract
with M & 0 Sanitation indicating that the change they wished to make
in the bid they submitted was due to the fact that they failed to
include a 7i% fee charged by the Connecticut Department of Taxation
which this Town is not exempt from since it is not a Connecticut
municipality. He enclosed a proposed affidavit which would be
signed by the officers of M & 0 Sanitation certifying this to be
a true fact. Mr. Wood recommended that the Board take this into
consideration with respect to its decision about reopening the
contract and allowing for this unanticipated and unexpected increase.
thwe
It would change the bid from the bidded price of $127.00 per thousand
to $136.50 per thousand.
Mr. Farina noted that this particular item was probably the most
expensive one in the sewer districts and since the operation and
maintenance charges have been set for 1988, he would not want to move
hastily and accept the 7i% increase. Mrs. Paino concurred with this
statement and recommended that further discussion be held at a work
shop.
177
Unfinished Business ---
Mrs. Smith asked for an update on the PASNY funds and was told that
the Citizens Advisory Panel had completed their review of the
applications submitted with the assistance of a representative from
PASNY, Jim Steets, and their recommendations will be forwarded to a
PASNY Panel in New York City who will make the final decision.
All applicants were informed whether their particular project was
approved by the Town's panel and if so, they will be on hold until
decision is determined by the PASNY Panel; this is not expected
until June or July.
New Business ---
Mrs. Paino referred to the completion of Peel Lane which has had
numerous problems concerning its completion and both the contractor
and the developer have made promises previously to do this project
by last Fall, but they have not been fulfilled. There have been
many excuses for the incompletion, the most recent being the
installation of a catch basin. In the meantime the residents have
notified the Town that it has been too long in being completed and
they are doing without services that they should be provided with;
the mail is not being delivered and the school buses are not allowed
to pick up the children there.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the Attorney to send a strongly worded
letter to the developer, Otto Klassen to complete Peel Lane and
further authorized the Attorney to make a bond claim or a Letter of
Credit claim in a final effort to have the developer finish this
project.

Motion Unanimously Carried
June Wyant was recognized by the Chair and requested that the
Supervisor provide her with the names of the PASNY Panel from the
Town, who they represent, the applications submitted and the amounts

Mrs. Paino agreed and reminded her that this is not a final approval,
the decision rests with the PASNY Panel in New York City.
There was no other business to come before the Board.

A Public Hearing was held by the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger
on May 16, 1988 at the Town Hall, Middlebush Road, Town of Wappinger,
Dutchess County, New York, on a proposed Local Law on Interim Zoning.
Supervisor Paino opened the Hearing at 7:00 P.M.
Present:
Irene Paino, Supervisor
Vincent Farina, Councilman
David Reis, Councilman
Constance Smith, Councilwoman
Robert Valdati, Councilman
Elaine H. Snowden, Town Clerk
The Town Clerk offered for the record the Affidavits of Posting and
Publication duly signed and notarized. (These Affidavits are attached
hereto and made part thereof of the Minutes of this Hearing).
Mrs. Paino reviewed the history of this Law, noting that after the
April 18, 1988 Public Hearing, comments from from the various agencies
it was referred to, plus comments from the public at that Hearing
were reviewed by the Board Members and incorporated into a revised
Law which is the subject matter of this Hearing.
The following recommendation was received from the Dutchess County
Department of Planning:.
To: Town Board, Town of Wappinger
Re: Referral 88-268, Proposed Interim Zoning Law
The Dutchess County Department of Planning has reviewed the subject
referral within the framework of General Municipal Law (Article 12B,
Sections 239-1 and 239-m). After considering the proposed action
in the context of countywide and intermunicipal factors, the Depart-
ment finds that the Board's decision primarily involves a matter
of local concern.
Action
The interim zoning law proposes to provide for limited development
pending completion of a revised master plan -and zoning ordinance.
In general, this is to be achieved by doubling the required minimum
lot size in each zoning district.
Comment
The provisions for higher minimum lot sizes are of great concern
to us. If significant development occurs at these proposed
densities, it may create a development pattern that would make
it very difficult to achieve town goals for creating new roads and
green space corridors and for expanding central utilities. Such a
development pattern may also be inadequate to address the need for
affordable housing or alternative housing types. The overall
development pattern that could result is contrary to the policies
of this department and the County Master Plan, Directions.
We understand that the board proposes to adopt this zoning as an
interim measure while a new zoning ordinance is being prepared.
Our degree of concern about the potential impact of halving the
allowable densities will increase if, at the end of this interim
period, the new zoning ordinance proposes similar or more severe
density reductions.
We also note two errors in the Schedule of Regulations for Non -
Residential Districts, under Section IIIA. The district PI, lA
is listed twice, with different area requirements, and the district
NB specifies "1 acre (20,000)".
Recommendation
However, the Department recommend; that the Board rely upon its own
study of the facts in the case, with careful consideration of these
comments.
The Dutchess County Department of Planning does not presume to
base its decision on the legalities or illegalities of the facts
or procedures enumerated in the subject zoning action.
s/ Lori Tanner, Planner
The following recommendation was received from the Town Planning
Board, dated May 13, 1988:
At the May 9th, 1988 meeting of the Town of Wappinger Planning
Board, the above item was discussed.
By a majority of the vote the Planning Board favors the concept
of the Interim Zoning and would leave the wording of such local law
to the Town Board.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
The Hearing was then opened to the public for their comments.
Nick Johnson, Gabriella Road, represented the Greater Southern
Dutchess Chamber of Commerce, and at the. last public hearing they
expressed reservations on such issues as affordable housing and the
ability to withstand and support central services of water and sewer.
They have the same reservations and would like to go on record and
stating from an interim zoning point of view there are concerns that
if this is used as a precedent for zoning laws that do not allow
variety of zones and it will probably be challenged in the courts
and cause more problems in the Town than it is worth.
It was explained that this law will only be in existence for nine
months, and it will not affect affordable housing since whether the
law is adopted or not, there will be no affordable housing created.
They do however plan to have a category in the new law, such as a
floating zone which may help senior citizens. Another point brought
out is that the proposed law does not affect those in water and sewer
districts, only outside of them. Those not in these districts do not
pay toward their upkeep so there should be no concern as to the price
of supporting the districts since it does not affect them.
John Railing, consulting engineer with offices in the Town, represents
many clients, developers, subdividers and his concern was on Section
IIIB which states that any application for subdivision that has been
granted preliminary approval by the Planning Board prior to the
effective date of this law shall be allowed to continue under the
pre-existing schedule of standards. There are many projects that
have gone through the Planning Board process, and mentioned the
Stoneykill Road Subdivision, 49 lots, owned by Mr. Visillio, that
has not actually received the preliminary approval but is close to it.
It has taken two years and they are at the stage where a Draft
Environmental Impact Statement has been accepted by that Board,
and they are about to submit the Final Statement on this application.
He feels that is a significant degree of completion of the project to
warrant exemption from this law. He would like the Board to consider
reviewing some other stages included in the Planning Board process
and change the dividing line for exemption. Even before preliminary
approval is granted, there has been considerable planning, designing,
changes at the request of the Planning Board, time and money expended
and if the law is approved, they will be made to put this work in
limbo. As for upgrading the size, he didn't think it would give the
Town Board what they are looking for, he feels they'll be a lot of
strange looking developments as a result of this. Instead of having
lots of 125 x 320 feet deep, they will be 125 x 600 feet deep , they
should consider studying that aspect before they pass this law.
Karol Sekely, Cedar Knolls, spoke at the last meeting but was misinformed,
figuring everything not sewer districts was over an acre but he under-
stands it's going for an acre, he's all for it. All the towns around,
East Fishkill, across the river, demand an acre. If the developers
are so worried and the Town is saying centralized water and sewer allows
one half acre, then let them put in the centralized water and sewer and
they'll get their one half acres.
Hank DiMarco, noted that it appearaithat the Dutchess County Planning
has concern relative to open space. It is to our advantage to have
the open space so you can place septic tanks and water and have the
hamlet around it--you have reasonable density so you can have your
hamlet with open space around it. It does follow the cluster pattern
of the New York State laws; it does look like a very appealing way to
go and it will help affordable housing.
Mrs. Paino pointed out that the Town Board did adopt an Open Space
Ordinance which gives the Planning Board the authority to mandate to
a developer that his development has to be done in a clustering concept;
a single family unit on a minimum of 12,000 square feet which will allow
what she thought Mr. DiMarco described ---allowing houses to be grouped
together on smaller lots thereby reducing the cost of the roads and
the associated services and leaving the remaining space open to be
forever wild.
Joseph Incoronato was confused on Section IV, Scope of Controls
which stated that an applicant can get a building permit on a
completed application within thirty days from the effective date of
this law, in accordance with the requirements of the law existing
immediately prior to the adoption of this law; this, he felt could
conceivably mean that someone without preliminary approval could
proceed under the prior law. The Attorney explained that the applica-
tion must be completed, meaning that it has gone through the Planning
Board process up to the preliminary approval stage. Mr. Incoronato
continued speaking as spokesman for the Wappinger Conservation
Association and they very strongly support this interim zoning law.
There is a crying need for updating and upgrading the zoning ordinance.
He spoke of the solid waste problem and pollution laws, water, roads.
Many things can be avoided by intelligent planning and he felt the
interim law will buy some time for the Town to do this.
Gene Shepherd, Chelsea, also a member of the W.C.A. sees the problems
that the developers have, also that the home owners have and read
excerpts from an article by Mr. Rosenberg ---Chelsea now has i acre
lots and it's unfair for the Board to change that. If he was a
newcomer and the Town told him he can't build a house on one acre
anymore because of water and sewer. If they told him he has to have
2 acres his reasoning would be this ---if this house were going to cost
him $100 or $200,000 and it meant that five years from now he still
has water and sewer he would go for the extra $20 or $30,000 that the
extra acre would cost. He felt the Board was making the right decision.
Michael Hirkala disagreed with Section IX regarding structures for
which a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued prior to the
effective date of this Local Law shall continue to be conforming and
mont1
shall not become non -conforming; in two to three/they 11 be completed
and occupied and it will be a non -conforming situation. Also, he hopes
the Town Board will open up the zoning review process to every citizen
in the Town since it is important that they participate.
There were several posters in the back of the room in support of
the Interim Zoning Law and Mrs. Paino thanked the person/s responsible
for the "art " work. It appeared that the W.C.A. had done the sketches
and put them up on the bulletin board.
There were no other comments made for or against the Local Law.
MR. REIS moved to close the Public Hearing, seconded by Mr. Farina
and unanimously carried.
The Public Hearing closed at 7:40 P.M.
