Mrs. Paino offered the following resolution:
WHEREAS, Joseph Landolfi was a member of the Zoning Board of
Appeals from February 1974 to April 22, 1987, and was Chairman of
this Board for many years,
WHEREAS, Joseph Landolfi has been a respected member of our
community for many years and we are ever mindful of his having
contributed greatly to our deliberation. Joe was always there
when we needed him most, he knew so much about the Town and the
members of the Zoning Board of Appeals and always had the right
remark at the right time,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Town Board expresses its profound
sorrow on the untimely passing of Joseph Landolfi on April 22, 1987,
and that when this meeting convenes and adjourns, it does so
tribute, and as a man of high regard and respect for Joe Landolfi,
we express our sorrow.

memory.

Committee Reports ---
Mr. Valdati, Health and Safety, reported on a complaint received from
a resident of Pine Hill Drive who has expressed concern over a pit
bull in that neighborhood. This resident was fearful of having
her children play in the yard due to the presence of this dog. Mr.
Valdati has referred this complaint to the Dog Control Officer who
will investigate the situation.
Mr. Reis reported on a public hearing that he and the Supervisor:
attended relating to an application from New York City to the
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to draw
water from the Chelsea Pumping Station in drought emergencies.
Mrs. Paino elaborated on this hearing noting that the City indicated
in their application that they would pump up to 100,000,000 gallons
per day from the Pump Station. She found many defiencies in the
Draft Environmental Impact Statement submitted with the application,
including insufficient supply of information on the salt line; the
impact of traffic on the Chelsea Area which has developed considerably
over the past few years; no information on noise levels caused by
operation of pumps, no information on storing chlorine tanks on site,
no plan for emergency action if the tanks were to leak, no concern
for the patients in the Castle Point Veterans Hospital located in that
area. They did not address the financial loss to the Town since the
land is no longer taxed, resulting from litigation which was decided
in New YOrk City's favor. A further concern is that New York City
has never implemented a water conservation program and they have not
118
installed the water meters which they promised to do several years
ago. The Town of Wappinger, on the other hand,has implemented
several projects to conserve their water resources, and for this
reason, both Mrs. Paino and Mr. Reis urged the D.E.C. at this
hearing, to use their influence on the pertinent agencies of New
York City to initiate and enforce stringent water conservation
rules and regulations so they can prepare themselves for emergency
situations and not have to reach further north for their water
supply. Mrs. Ppino learned thtough extensive research that the
City had water problems as far back as the 1790's and even then
rather than implement conservation measures they built the Croton
Aquaduct and moved on up to impact the areas of the Catskills and
Delaware. In 1905 the McClellan Act was enacted and this allowed
those communities impacted by New York City Aquaducts in Delaware
and Catskill County to be able to access water supply from those
Aquaducts. Further investigation has revealed that there is ability
in Pump #6 of the Chelsea Pump Station to hook up water supply units
for surrounding municipalities and Mrs. Paino felt that there is a
possibility that the Town of Wappinger might be able to avail itself
of water from New York City. She brought this up at the D.E.C. hearing
and urged them to impose this condition on the City if their application'
is approved. Mr. Reis added that this water supply would not be from
the Hudson River, but rather from the Ashokan Reservoir.
MR. REIS moved to authorize the Supervisor to enter into negotiations
with New York City and further investigate possibility of Town of
Wappinger tapping into Chelsea Pump Station for additional water
supply from the Ashokan Reservoir.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. Farina, Budget and Finance had two items to report on --- the
first related to an increase in rent on the Schlathaus property
which will yield an additional $900 revenue for the Schlathaus
Trust Fund in 1987 and $1,800 per year thereafter plus whatever
increases they may impose in the future; a lease amendment provides
for inspection of the house and property by the Town Board upon a
two day prior notice to the tenant.
The other item relates to the Saturday Morning Garbage Program
at the Highway Department. Refuse collection rates have been raised
119
by all the carters and the Town is no exception having received a
raise from Royal Carting Company by approximately 61%
In view of
this fact, the rates for this program will also be raised from $1.00
to $1.50 per bag.
On this subject, Mr. Croshier informed the Board that additional
dumpsters should be placed at the site to discourage rodents he
has seen in the area.
MR. FARINA moved to increase the fee for the Saturday Morning
Garbage Program from $1.00 to $1.50 per bag.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mrs. Visconti reported that the Airport Task Force will be meeting on
May 14th, 1987 and they will address concerns brought up by Mr. McCluskey
regarding the operation of a Salvage Yard at the Airport Park, also
a landfill operation in the same area on Citation Road.
On the Dial -A -Ride meeting, Mrs. Visconti reported that the ridership
has not increased which is a concern, but on the other hand since
this program is in existence, it automatically qualifies them under
the new federal guidelines of providing service for the handicapped
and they will continue to receive funds for expansion.
Resolutions ---
A Public Hearing having been held by the Town Board on May 4, 1987,
on a Local Law on a 90 Day Moratorium on Forest Logging, the matter
was now placed before them for their consideration.
MRS. PAINO moved to declare a negative declaration on this proposed
Local Law, under SEQR regulations.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
MR. REIS moved to adopt Local Law #11 of 1987 as follows:
A LOCAL LAW ESTABLISHING A 90 DAY MORATORIM ON CUTTING, FELLING OR
LOGGING OF MORE THAN SIX TREES PER ACRE FOR MARKET OR SALE TO A
SAWMILL.
BE IT ENACTED, by the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger,
Dutchess County, New York, as follows:
A TITLE
This law shall be known as and may be cited as "A Local Law establishing
a 90 -day moratorium on cutting felling or logging of more than six
trees per acre for market or sale to a sawmill" of the Town of
Wappinger.
120
B. LEGISLATIVE INTENT AND FINDINGS
The Town of Wappinger, New York, is currently pursuing a review
of forestry practices within its municipal boundaries. It is
anticipated that these activities will culminate in enactment of
legislation to regulate forestry practices.
The municipality is experiencing increased forestry use which may
be inconsistent with the purposes or results of the forestry law.
Accordingly, it is found that consideration or approval of forestry
proposals may negate and circumvent the planning and drafting
process already underway and, thus, be contrary to the public
interest and welfare.
In order to prevent forestry use which may prejudice, and be
inconsistent with, comprehensive revision of the Town's regulation,
appropriate interim measures must be taken in the form of a
moratorium on review and approval of such plans, and a temporary
prohibition of certain logging activities.
C. SCOPE OF COVERAGE
No logging, felling, or cutting of more than six trees per acre
or transportation of logs to sawmills or to market shall be permitted
in the Town except as otherwise stated hereinafter in Section "D"
hereof.

which a building permit has been obtained;
3. Cutting or felling of trees on lots in a subdivision
which has been approved by the Planning Board; or other
4. Cutting of trees which are not intended for sale or
transport to market on individual lots.
E. PENALTIES
Any person or entity that shall cut timber in violation of the
provisions of this local law, or shall otherwise violate any of
the provisions hereof, shall:
1. be guilty of an offense, punishable by a fine not
exceeding two hundred and fifty dollars ($250.00) or imprisonment
for a period not to exceed six (6) months, or both. Each week's
continued violation shall constitute a separate offense, and
2. be subject to appropriate action or proceedings by the
proper authorities of the Town to enjoin, correct, or abate any
violation.
F. VARIANCES
The Town Board shall be authorized to accept and review applications
for variances from application of the provision of this local law,
in the case of unnecessary and unique hardship to the applicant
for a variance.
G. VALIDITY
The invalidity of any provision of this local law shall not affect
the validity of any other part of this local law which can be
given effect.

In the matter of a Scoping Session for the Town Wastewater Treatment
Facilities Plan, Mrs. Paino announced that this will be held on
Thursday, May 14, 1987 at 7:30 P.M. at the Town Hall.
On proposed uses for County Consortium Development Funds, Mrs. Paino
noted that the Town is entitled to approximately $40,000 and a number
of requests have been received relating to the use of these funds.
Mrs. Paino set a Special Meeting for Thursday, May 7, 1987 at
7:30 P.M. to discuss the use of these funds.
The Town Board has discussed this matter at a work shop meeting
and are considering using the amount of $39,000 to follow through
on the protection of the HIlltop Aquifer. A request has been
received from the Big Brothers, Big Sisters Organization for
$3,000 to help them with their administrative activities. In
addition to these uses, they have discussed the option of using
$50,000 in a matching grant for refurbishing the old Town Hall;
this would be matched by HUD and would help the present owners,
Community Services Program convert the building into offices on
the first level and affordable apartments on the other two levels.
Further discussion on eligible projects for the use of this money
will be held at the Special Meeting.
The next item on the Agenda related to establishing a Citizens
Advisory Panel for the purpose of distributing the PASNY grant
funds to qualified organizations. Mrs. Paino introduced Jim Steets
representative of the New York State Power Authority who was present
to speak on the procedure the Town would have to follow for the
allocation of PASNY grant funds. Each municipality that the power
lines passed through would receive a remuneration of $55,000 per
mile to compensate partially for the impact of the power lines on
their community; the amount allotted to the Town of Wappinger is
$324,500. Now that the line is complete and presently being prepared
and tested for energization, Mr. Steets explained, it was time to
form the panel. The panel would consist of seven members, two of
122
which would be members of the Town Board, the Town Supervisor and a
Town Councilman who would be appointed by the Supervisor. The other
five members would be chosen from community service, non-profit
organizations operating in the Town; it is important that they meet
the criteria of being non-profit and legitimate organizations such as
Knights of Columbus, Elks, Chamber of Commerce, groups that have
provided service to the public for a number of years. It will be
the function of this panel to recommend to PASNY how this money can
be spent --it can be for one project or divided among several projects,
that is for the panel to decide. It cannot be used to alleviate the
operation and maintenance budgets of these organizations or even
the Town budget, and cannot be used to reduce taxes. He noted that
the Town itself can submit a proposal that qualifies for monies from
this grant. This Town has been in litigation with PASNY and because
of that they have not pursued this grant as early as other Towns, but
they are welcome to go ahead with the mechanics at any time, the time
frame is their decision. It is not contingent on whether the municipality
agreed with the power lines or not. Anyone can apply if they are
sponsored by worthy organizations, as explained previously. The first
step, he reiterated, is to formulate the list of the organizations
and chose the five members required to make up the panel. Mr. Steets
concluded his presentation and invited comments and/or questions from
the Town Board and the public.
Supervisor Paino appointed Councilman David Reis to the Citizens
Advisory Panel regarding allocation of the PASNY funding. Since
he represents Ward 2 in the Town, the area that feels the greatest
impact of the power lines, Mrs. Paino felt it appropriate that he
be appointed to this panel.
Mrs. Paino asked the other Board Members and the public to forward
names of non-profit organizations they wish to submit by Friday,
May 15, 1987.
Unfinished Business ---
A letter was received from Thomas Ware, Pastor of the Yorktown
Christian Center commending several Town employees. The letter

Dear Ms. Paino:
I am personally writing to commend before you the public services
of Herb Levenson, Zoning Administrator, Linda Berberich and Jean
Francese. Their kind cooperation and professionalism makes it a
pleasure for us to undergo the normal procedures to secure approvals
to build our church facilities. It is actually refreshing to be
dealt the consideration that they have given me, it is not like this
everywhere and it makes our entrance into your community something
we greatly anticipate.
Again, I commend these people before you; their services are truly
a credit to the Wappingers Falls Community and its future development.
Sincerely,

A letter was received from the newly appointed Superintendent of
Schools, Dodge Watkins, relating to the ongoing correspondence we
have had over the past three months on school buses presently parked
at the Fairchild property. At Mrs. Visconti's request, the letter
was read into the Minutes as follows:
April 21, 1987
Mrs. Elaine H. Snowden
Town of Wappinger Clerk
20 Middlebush Road
P.O. Box 324
Wappingers Falls, N.Y. 12590
Dear Mrs. Snowden:
In response to your letter of March 18, 1987, we are pleased
to advise you that air testing performed at Van Wyck Junior High
School subsequent to the removal of the buses from the school
site and the implementation of several minor control measures has
indicated a noticeable improvement in air quality in the school
building in general, with specific location improvements of as
much as twenty-five per cent being recorded.
Further testing, as well as additional remedial actions, are
planned as part of an overall attempt to affect even greater
improvements in building air quality for the students and faculty
at Van Wyck. Until such time that all alternatives have been
exhausted, it would seem extremely premature to even speculate
about returning the buses to Van Wyck since to date their removal
appears to have had the single greatest impact in remedying the
adverse air quality situation in that school.
Please be assured that we will keep you informed of any
further developments in our attempts to remedy this situation.
s/ Dodge Watkins
124
Mrs. Visconti commented that the fact that the air quality at Van
Wyck has improved for the children and the faculty is commendable,
however, the buses are still parked at the Fairchild property which is
a residential area and now that the warmer weather is upon us and
windows are open, the air quality from the fumes of the buses is not
pleasant for the residents of the area. Mrs. Visconti asked that the
correspondence be placed on file but she intended to speak to the
school board on this matter and try to reach an equitable solution
for all concerned.
Mr. Incoronato was recognized by the Chair and noted that at a previous
meeting the matter of the annual spring clean-up was brought up and
it was his understanding that this clean-up is being delayed due to
test wells mandated by the D.E.C. at the landfill site. He asked if
any action had been taken by the Engineer on these test wells.
Mr. Paggi responded that the action to start the test wells has not
been taken due to the fact that the order to close the landfill has
not been received from the D.E.C. If they start this project without
the order they will not be eligible for the low interest loan offered
by the state to municipalities to close down their landfills.
Mrs. Visconti noted that last week at the scene of an accident she
had witnessed, a Deputy Sheriff brought to her attention the fact
that there are no signs posted regarding the prohibition of motorized
vehicles at Reese Park and Fleetwood. She requested that this be
referred to either the Highway Department or the Recreation Commission
to rectify. In order for the law enforcement agencies to enforce
the law, the applicable sign must be in place.
At a previous meeting the Town Board received a recommendation from
Trooper Barie to place a stop sign at the intersection of Kent Road
and Central Avenue to alleviate a traffic problem at that location.
The notification was referred to the Engineer to the Town for his
review and recommendation. A report was received from Mr. Paggi
and he concurred with Trooper Barie's recommendation to place a
stop sign at that intersection; he also agreed that the north westerly
side of the intersection be cleared as much as the existing right-of-
way allows. Mr. Farina requested that the Attorney be authorized
to prepare a Local Law for a stop sign at this intersection. He
further requested that the Engineer and the Highway Superintendent
make arrangements to clear the brush and trees from the intersection
to allow better visibility.
125
New Business ---
Jim Rogers was recognized by the Chair and asked what is going to be
done on the Town right-of-way where the illegal logging operation
was
Mr.
conducted and will the Town be reimbursed.
Reis responded that discussion was
meeting with the residents; since that
Administrator met with Mr. DiPetro who
and informed him what they wanted done
held a few weeks ago at
meeting both he and the
a
Zoning
was conducting this activity
in that
area. At this time,
to his knowledge Mr. DiPetro is not willing to have trees planted.
They intend to make every effort to block the entry within the next
week and contact has to be made with the Hughsonville Fire Department to
determine if the access must remain open. Further meetings will be held
with Mr. DiPetro until the situation is resolved to the satisfaction of
the Town and the residents of the Fleetwood area.
Mrs. Paino wished to notify the residents of our Town that the Rotary
Club will be conducting a Walk/Run-A-Thon on Saturday, May 9, 1987,
for the benefit of polio victims.
Mrs. Paino proclaimed the week of May 4th, 1987, Polio Plus, Walk/Run-
A-Thon Week in the Town of Wappinger. She encouraged all to participate
and sponsor those involved. Mr. Johnson, President of the Rotary Club
was invited to add his comments and gave a brief explanation of the
event, time, place etc.
There was no other business to come before the Board.
MR. REIS moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Mr. Farina and
unanimously carried.
