The Regular Meeting of the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger
was held on August 4th, 1986, at the Town Hall, Middlebush Road,
Town of Wappinger, Dutchess County, New York.
Supervisor Paino opened the meeting at 7:48 P.M.
Present:
Irene Paino, Supervisor
Joseph Bracone, Councilman
Vincent Farina, Councilman
David Reis, Councilman
June Visconti, Councilwoman
Elaine H. Snowden, Town Clerk
Others Present:
Joseph E. Paggi, Jr. Engineer
Kenneth Croshier, Highway Superintendent
The Meeting started with the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag.
Mrs. Paino invited the public to join with the Town Board in a
moment of silence for the Town of Wappinger and its residents.
The Minutes of the July 7th, 1986 Regular Meeting, having previously
been forwarded to all Board Members, were placed before them for
their consideration.
Mrs. Paino wished to make the following amendments to the Minutes
before they were accepted.
On Page 8 & 9 of the July 7th, 1986 Minutes Mrs. Paino wished to
make the following amendments relating to the Lloyd rezoning.
Comments made by Michael Hirkala --- He stated that he was present
at previous discussions when the proposed traffic light was the
subject and he could not understand -not disagreeing with this
solution to the traffic problems in that area (he was referring
to comments made by Joseph Incoronato and Ken Duxbury) and believed
this would be a safe solution. As it is now, the traffic that
comes north on Osborne Hill Road attempts to cross Route 9 and
that's where the majority of accidents happen. If that traffic
is rerouted to Smithtown Road to a traffic light, then a left
turn north on Route 9, it would be a safer situation. He feels
the traffic light is a good concept, however, there is one thing
to take a hard look at which is - ingress and egress of the
Lloyd site with traffic southbound ---traffic coming southbound
turn into Osborne Hill Road and come to a possible collision
course with the Lloyd south exit. That's the only concern he
has.
1�g
Mrs. Paino noted that there is a feeder lane coming out of Lloyds
before exiting to Route 9 so this should ease Mr. Hirkala's concern
of a potential collision course.
The next item to be amended related to Mr. Piazza's request for the
Town to consider granting them a tax abatement pursuant to Section
485-b of the Real Property Law. In response to this request, Mrs. _
Paino brought out the fact that the surrounding communities have
never utilized this program. The Town is merely following the suit
of the other municipalities.
On Page 9, Section II of the Zoning Ordinance Amendment which
outlines the stipulations that must be complied with, the following
clause should be added to Paragraph (1): "prior to application for
a Certificate of Occupancy and the operation of business".
MRS. PAINO moved that the Minutes of the July 7th, 1986 meeting,
be and they are hereby approved, as amended, as submitted by the
Town Clerk.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Reports were received as follows: Hydrant Report for June, Receiver
of Taxes, Town Justices, Building Inspector and the Zoning Administrator
for July.
MRS. VISCONTI moved to accept the above stated Reports and place
them on file.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Petitions & Communications ---
Mrs. Jean Sopko wrote to the Board requesting that a sign indicating
that a deaf child was in the area be placed on Barbara Drive in the
Quiet Acres area.
Mr. Farina started to propose a motion authorizing the Highway
Superintendent to install the sign requested by Mrs. Sopko, however
Mr. Croshier informed the Board that this sign was already installed
on Barbara Drive.
Notification was received from Christina Maria Takacs Perkins
of her intent to apply for a liquor license for premises at
Route 9 (formerly Ship's Wheel-). It is now a requirement that
such notifications be sent to the local municipality for their
comments on the issuance of a license.
MR. REIS moved to accept this notification and place it on file.
Seconded by Mrs. Visconti

Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. Howard Erichsen, Regional Manager of U. S. Cablevision Corp.
forwarded a notification, pursuant to the New York State Commission
on Cable Television's Docket $90152-A relating to rate increases
on this service.
Mrs. Paino pointed out that local municipalities no longer are
are required to approve proposed increases, it goes before the
State Commission on Cable Television.
MRS. VISCONTI moved to direct a letter to Mr. Erichsen indicating
that the Town does not agree with the increases and feel very
strongly that, before.any increases are implemented, the cable
service should be improved; also indicate that complaints have
been received from our residents regarding the fact that the
cable goes off in rainy or inclement weather and a third
complaint is that the company is extremelyslow in providing
cable service to those residents who have requested this service.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
In response to Mrs. Mills' request to know the amount of increases,
the following information was read from this notification:

Wappinger Falls, NY 12590
Ladies & Gentlemen,
July 8, 1986
Taryl Court/Shelburne Hills Subdivision
As you may be aware, we were forced to discontinue business
last year due to financial problems.
We are attempting to complete the road (Taryl Court) off Meyers
Corners Road in Shelburne HIlls as soon as possible to complete the
project to everyones satisfaction.
The bonds we posted for the completion and maintenance will be
coming due again in October 1986. Again, due to our financial
problems, we will not be in a poisiton to renew the bonds.
Therefore, we would like to complete the road and dedicate
to the town before the October deadline. I understand from my
partner, John Ryan, that Mr. Crosher might not agree. I would
appreciate any comments you may have regarding this with hopes
we can come to a compromise.
We will have the funds to complete the road from the sale of
lots in section and hopefully, the sale of the 7.9 acres adjacent.
It is not expected there will be any net profits after all of the
improvements have been done. If we do not finish the raod this
year, we may not have enough money to finish it next year if
prices rise.
I will send a copy of this letter to Mr. Crosher and ask his
comments in order to save time. Thank you.
Very truly yours,
s/ Wm. Molloy, Pres.
Mrs. Paino noted that it has been a policy of the Town not to accept
roads until they are completed. Mr. Croshier recommended that the
Town not release the bond since there's only five houses involved
and short length of road. He felt there was adequate time for them
to complete the work before the October deadline.
Mr. Farina noted that the Town is not at liberty to release the
bonds since there is a lien against them.
MRS. PAINO moved to direct a letter to Mr. Molloy, President of
Granite Homes, Inc. and indicate that it is a Town Policy not to
release bonds prior to the completion of the road and the Board is
aware that a lien has been placed against the company and the Town
expects the bonds to be renewed prior to their expiration date.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. Jay Stricker wrote to the Board in regard to obtaining a
variance in the time limit requirement for a Peddler's License.
Mr. Stricker was present to address the Board and requested their
permission to operate his hot dog truck between the hours of
11:30 A.M. to 2:30 P.M., Monday thru Friday on property owned by
Dave Alexander Construction Co., without having to move the
vehicle 1,000 yards every half hour, as stipulated in the Peddlers
Ordinance. He continued with his presentation and informed the
/g/
Board that he has a current License to operate his truck and has
paid over $900.00 for liability insurance, which, he pointed out,
most peddlers and restaurants do not carry. He has acquired written
permission from the owner of the property to operate at that loca-
tion. He is presently operating his truck at that location since
at the time he set up his business the Town did not have a Zoning
Administrator. He reiterated his request to the Board to allow
him to continue his operation since he has permission, carries
a $300,000 liability policy for the business and his customers,
a petition with approximately 100 signatures of people in the
Town and some who work for the Town, creates no traffic hazard
in the area and does not interfere with any similar business
in that locality.
Mr. Farina, as Chairman of the Ordinance Committee pointed out
that Mr. Stricker had signed an affidavit stating that he would
move his vehicle as required by the Ordinance and he could not
entertain any waiver from that requirement as it would set a
precedent for others engaged in similar operations; as far as
operating on private property, this would come under the Zoning
Administrator's responsibility since it creates a second use of
his property and he would have to go through the proper channels
to obtain this permission.
It was Mrs. Paino's understanding that Mr. Stricker had discussed
this with the Zoning Administrator who had informed him that under
the present zoning laws, it was not permissible for him to operate
on private property even with permission from the owner. At that
time Mr. Gunderud had suggested that he approach the Town Board
for a variance from the stipulation that concerned him.
Mrs. Visconti noted that she had asked the Attorney to the Town
about amending that stipulation in the Peddler's Ordinance, however
she never received a response.
MR. FARINA moved that the variance requested by Mr. Stricker
pertaining to the Peddlers Ordinance be denied.
Seconded by Mr. Reis.
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mrs. Stricker asked the Board what was their next step to obtain
permission to continue their operation at that location and Mrs.
Paino replied that they could apply for a Special Use Permit, however
's; --
if this was granted, the Town would leave themselves wide open
by setting a precedent and all vendors would expect the same
exception to the law.
Mrs. Mills was recognized by the Chair and stated that the owner
of the property, in this case, Mr. Alexander, would have to apply
for a permit to have two uses of his property. It had nothing to
do with the vendor having written permission and under the zoning
laws the owner would have to go through the required channels.
A resignation was received from Dorothy Hirsch, Secretary to the
Fire Prevention Bureau. They have recommended the appointment
of Andrea Benedetto to replace Mrs. Hirsch.
MR. FARINA moved to send a letter of thanks to Dorothy Hirsch for
her service to the Town and accept the recommendation of the Fire
Prevention Bureau to appoint Andrea Benedetto to fill that position.
Seconded by Mrs. Paino

to appear and defend on behalf of the Town of Wappinger.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
A report was received from the Engineer relating to sewer line
problems at the home of Kenneth Stringer, 27 Cider Mill Loop.
Mrs. Paino had previously received correspondence from Mr. Stringer
indicating that for the past several years he has, on numerous
occasions had— trouble with clogs in the sewer line. The firm
of Paggi & Martin in conjunction with Camo Pollution Control
investigated the problem and found that, in one instance, the clog
was located in the line maintained by the Town. At that time, Mr.
Stringer expended $63.00 to correct the problem..
g3
MRS. PAINO moved to reimburse the sum of $63.00 to Kenneth Stringer
to cover the cost of correcting the sewer problem at his home, 27
Cider Mill Loop.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
The second report from the Engineer pertained to a drainage study
for Brothers Road.
Mrs. Paino noted that a work shop meeting was held on a drainage
problem that has existed for many months. It was then referred
to the Engineer to prepare a study and another work shop
meeting will be held on August 21, 1986 at 7:30 P.M. to discuss
this report.
The Engineer submitted a report on the Fleetwood Water supply due
to sulphur'.contentyand the Oakwood Water supply to remove the iron
content. These will be scheduled for work shop meetings in September
when everyone is home from vacation and hopefully will attend the
meeting pertaining to their district.
A final report from the Engineer was a study of well fields of
Central Wappinger Water Improvement Area for Rockingham and Hilltop
districts.
The Town previously had a hydrological report conducted for Central
Wappinger Water Improvement Area and, as a result the Engineers
have submitted their recommendations relative to preventing the
Town wells from flooding and being washed out during heavy rains.
The Engineers have recommended alternatives to solve the problems
at the Hilltop and Rockingham well sites.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the Engineer to the Town to prepare
a formal design and cost analysis of Alternative 2 for wells
PW -3 and PW -5 in the Hilltop well field, and a formal design and
cost analysis be prepared by Paggi and Martin for Alternative 2
for wells PW -1R and Alternative 1 for PW -2R at the Rockingham
well field.

Motion Unanimously Carried
The Town received a payment request from the General Contractor
of the Town Hall, in the amount of $42,930.00; a portion of this
amount ($10,095) represents work already completed, the remaining
amount, ($32,835.00) is being kept by the Town as retainage fee.
194
The request by Eugene Ossie, Inc. has been thoroughly discussed by
Mrs. Paino with the architects, Hayward and Pakan and the Attorney
to the Town and as a result of these discussions, Mrs. Paino recom-
mended that the amount of the work done ($10,095.00) be paid to the
contractor. The reason she does not want to release the retainage
fee is due to the fact that despite numerous calls to Hayward and
Pakan, they have failed to submit the Certificate of Substantial
Completion as required in the contract.between Mr. Ossie and the
Town, pursuant to the section of the contract "General Conditions
of the Contract for Construction", specifically paragraph 9 of that
section. This stipulation must be adhered -to for the.protection of
the Town. Relative to the final completion and final payment, in
order to ascertain that all work has been completed, the Architect
must do a final inspection ---this has not been done. Paragraph 9
also indicates that neither final payment nor remaining retainage
shall become due until the contractor submits to the architect
(1) an affidavit that all payrolls, bills for material and equipment
and other indebtedness relative to this work have been paid ---this
has not been done, (2) consent of surety, if any, to final payment,
this has not been done and (3) if required by owner, which it has,
other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations ---
this has not been done. For the reasons stated above, Mrs. Paino
recommended that the partial payment representing work already
completed be paid.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the payment of $10,095.00 to Eugene
Ossie, Inc., general contractor for Town Hall building.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
A request was received from the Recreation Commission to expend
additional monies from the Schlathaus Fund for materials for the
band stand. Mr. Farina explained that the original request approved
was $1,259.99 plus an additional $250.00 for beams, and $200.00 for
a crane and operator. The beam was fabricated, therefore the $250.00
was not expended, and the Highway Department assisted with unloading
and lifting so there was no need for the crane. Mr. Farina thanked
Mr. Croshier and his crew for their help. Additional expenditure
amounted to $555.26, however, the $450.00 not expended was put
toward this amount leaving a balance of $105.26 which required
approval from the Board.
MR. FARINA moved to authorize the expenditure of $105.26 from the
Schlathaus Fund, as requested by the Recreation Commission for
additional expenses for the bandstand at Schlathaus Park.
Seconded by Mr. Bracone.
Motion Unanimously Carried
Committee Reports ---
Mr. Bracone had no reports for this meeting.
Mr. Reis reported on a work shop meeting with the Recreation Commission
last week at which time the Chairman, Ralph Holt, expressed an interest
on Town owned property on Briar Lane, approximately 10 acres of land
which included a pond. The following week, Mr. Reis, Mrs. Paino,
the Engineer to the Town and Norman Benson from Dutchess County
Soil and Water Conservation District met at that site to inspect
the land; the pond was larger than they anticipated and very clear.
It is their hope that this pond can be used for recreation purposes
and a possible water source for the Town.
Relative to this matter Mrs. Paino stated that she met with the
Engineer and representatives of a hydrogeological firm from Massa-
chusetts and discussed a possible study to ascertain if the pond
could be used for additional water resources and/or a recreational
use. She has invited this firm to submit a proposal to the Town
Board, outlining three different phases and their cost. In Phase I
they would study any existing data on file relating to that area and
the surrounding ones including the soils map, rock formation, investi-
gation of private wells of area residents which might reveal the
water quality; they will also consider the present and future
drainage runoff, the affect of private septic fields and they will
give a recommendation on test wells which would determine if the
Town should advance to Phase II. Phase II would incorporate a
geophysical study, determine the depth of bedrock, identify areas
of saturated sands and gravel and put in place small diameter test
wells, also conduct pumping tests. If the two phases are positive
they will recommend moving to Phase III which would incorporate
high capacity pumping tests] observation wells and determine areas
of recharge. Each phase and its individual cost will be submitted
to the Town Board for approval. If it is determined that it cannot
be used for drinking water, they can then concentrate on using it
for recreational use. Further discussion will be held at a work shop
meeting prior to consideration of commencing the study.
Mr. Farina, Landfill. Cost of garbage removal has increased,
however due to the increased use of the Saturday Morning Program
at the Highway Department, our price will remain the same through-
out the summer.
Mr. Farina referred to a large pothole at Losee Road and Old
Hopewell Road which is constantly being repaired by the County
to no avail, it keeps reappearing. He met with Mr. Spratt,
Commissioner of Public Works in Dutchess County and he agreed this
needed more than the normal fill in for potholes. Those who travel
that road are aware that they have found the solution by repairing
a 50 foot section and the pothole is gone.
Mrs. Visconti distributed her Personnel Report to the Town Board
and read a portion of it ---"Town Justice Vincent Francese, in his
letter of January 22, 1986, requested that the Town Board review
the problems with the Justice Court. A work shop meeting with
Justice Francese and Wolfson elaborated further on the situation.
The recommendations enumerated have been made after consulting with,
and in appreciation for their assistance, Jerry McCluskey, Wappinger
County Legislator, former Councilman for the Town of Wappinger,
Dick Noel, Deputy Comptroller, former County Legislator and
Chairman of Legislature Personnel Committee, Earl Bruno, Commissioner
of Jurors and Lawrence Heaton, Deputy Commissioner of Jurors. The
topics that I did cover were compensation, overtime, compensatory
time, manpower, jury panel selection, proper prosecution Town Law
and Town Ordinance and computerization".
Mrs. Visconti requested that a work shop be set for the Town Board
to review this report.
The second report made by Mrs. Visconti was in regard to the
Richmor Aviation proposal to become a fixed base operator at the
Dutchess County Airport. A press conference was held today with
Douglas McHoul, Donald McMillen and June Visconti; the press release
reads as follows.
THREE RAISE QUESTIONS ABOUT JACKSON ROAD HEIGHT, RICHMOR PROPOSAL
Another cause for concern has developed over Richmor Aviation's
proposal to become a fixed base operator at the Dutchess County
Airport.
According to the Federal Aviation Administration, Jackson
Road which borders the airport is seven feet too high.
Town of Wappinger Councilwoman June Visconti whose ward
includes the airport and surrounding area, brought the matter to
the attention of Legislature Chairman Douglas A. McHoul (R -Hopewell
Junction) and Legislator Don McMillen (R-Wappinger). Visconti says
she learned of the problem several weeks ago. "Apparently the FAA
has increased the visibility minimum to one mile from the previous
minimum of one-half mile. The effect this has is that should a
fifteen foot truck be traveling on Jackson Road near New Hackensack
Road it would be penetrating the required clearzone by seven feet."
According to Visconti, McHoul and McMillen, the County is
faced with three options: (1) reduce the height of Jackson Road
by at least seven feet, (2) displace runway 6 by approximately
300 feet, or (3) petition the FAA to return to the half mile
visibility minimum or compromise at 3/4 of a mile.
McHoul says this adds another complication to the Richmor
proposal, "here we are looking to give away the only profit
making portion of our airport operation, and at the same time
we become faced with a serious and costly problem made more so
by the potential for an increase in jet traffic. "I'm worried,
said McMillen, that the County is going to have to lower Jackson
Road which seems the more likely and expensive of the options,
while we have signed away any mechanism available to lessen the
financial burden placed on the taxpayers." Visconti says she is
somewhat concerned that County administration has been downplaying
the significance of this development in an attempt to keep it quiet.
When this was discussed at the last meeting of the Airport Advisory
Committee, the Commissioner of Aviation didn't feel it would be
appropriate to notify the Legislature of this problem. However,
last week, I myself witnessed and spoke to the County employees
who were surveying the roads with this question in mind.
McHoul, McMillen and Visconti believe that if costly corrections
are made the County should have the capacity to look toward the
profitable parts of airport operation to defray the cost to the
taxpayers. With that in mind, the three see this as another
reason to decline Richmor's proposal.
"It just doesn't make sense, -says Visconti, to..give away the
money making end of the operation when you don't know what type
of expenses you are faced with. It is my firm belief that the
taxpayers of this County should not have to reach further into
their pockets so that the government can accommodate corporate
interests."
Mrs. Visconti continued her report and noted that it was also
brought out at the meeting the fact that if they lower the road,
and remove the T hangars from the east side of the airport, the
New Hackensack. Reformed Church is still in the clear zone and would
have to be moved. The FAA said that since the building was in
effect prior to the creation of the.airport, that they might not
have to move it. However,..according to the Minutes of the Airport
Advisory Committee Meeting, a question was raised as to why this
fact, the 7' penetration air space -.,:was not noticed earlier by.the
FAA. Commissioner of Aviation.said the -.FAA has gotten more strict
in their updating of obstruction charts. They are paying more
attention to details and.this kind of thing.is coming to -light,
so it could very well be that tomorrow.the.y can say they have
decided to enforce the rule regarding the New Hackensack Church.
Mrs. Visconti requested that her report be put into the Minutes of
this Meeting because she believes that this is another reason why
a
Richmor's proposal should be declined and the residents and
taxpayers of the Town of Wappinger should not have to face this
proposal.

Felix Koretsky, 52 Top'o Hill Road asked where a boat owner could
park their boat trailer in that area without having problems. As
it is now he goes to Peekskill where he can put the boat in the
water with no problems; his wife doesn't have to climb over anything
and he has no fear of the kids falling into the water. Where do we
stand in the Town of Wappinger; why can't we have a decent ramp
and facilities as other Towns do.
Mrs. Paino responded that they are pursuing this matter, however
for now they are trying to prevent the resident's land in Chelsea
from being blocked by the vehicles. Mr. Koretsky continued and
stated that he heard that there is a piece of property down there
in Chelsea that belongs to the Town and was fenced off. Mrs. Paino
replied that the Engineering Firm of Paggi and Martin has been
authorized to conduct a study to determine the boundary lines of
the Town property and perhaps come up with additional land for
parking. When asked, the Engineer estimated that this would take
a couple of months. The resident continued with his questioning
and asked when they do get the boundaries settled, what can they do
to improve the boat ramp at Chelsea so a family can use it in safety.
What about a rig to help them out? Mrs. Paino replied that this
was a matter for the Recreation Commission and they are consulting
with the Engineer to improve the facilities.
Mr. Reis added that the main reason for this law was due to the
fact that residents were complaining that the cars and boat trailers
were all over their lawns and blocking their entering and exiting
their driveways; also emergency vehicles were having problems and
the situation demanded correction. They are, as Mrs. Paino pointed
out, working on a solution to handle the parking primarily and then
will consider improvements.
There were no other comments for or against the proposed Local Law.
MRS. PAINO moved to close the Public Hearing, seconded by Mr. Reis
and unanimously carried.
The Hearing closed at 7:37 P.M.
