Petitions & Communications ---
Richard Rose wrote to the Town Clerk requesting the opportunity
to discuss the operation and service of the Atlas Water Company
with the Town Board.
Mr. Rose was present and complained about the water service he
has received over the last eighteen years from Atlas Water
Company. He started off by asking the Town Board if they
intended doing anything about the operation of that company.
Mrs. Paino replied that she had indicated to him during a
previous phone conversation when he requested to be on the
agenda, that Atlas is a private water company and the Town
has no jurisdiction over its operation. Mr. Rose distributed
a package of correspondence to the Town Board from various county
and state agencies over a period of several years. Some of his
complaints included lack of pressure, due to the fact, he felt,
that he was the last subscriber to the Company and his home was on
a hill; terrible noise when water service is halted, sucks water
out of the furnace; cold water pipe from the house remains hot
and has damaged water softener four times; terrible taste to the
water when it comes back on. He kept track one year and lost
water service 29 times during 1973. He has been in constant
communication with the owner and operator of the Company, Ron
Lafko, who is aware of some of the problems. Mr. Rose also noted
that there was no security at the pumping station and both he and
Mr. Versace, former Supervisor, visited the site and witnessed
many violations; it was his understanding that Mr. Versace wrote
the D.E.C. informing them of these facts, but received no response.
It was his opinion that there was not proper maintenance of the
pumping station which was part of the cause of the blowout.
He requested that the following letter be read into the Minutes
from Atlas Water Company:
October 14, 1977
Dear Customer,
The Atlas Water System which furnishes water to you, has
for the months of July and August, 1977, failed to perform the
monitoring requirements. The reason for failing to perform the
monitoring requirements of a constituent bacteria is oversight
and faulty communication.
At this time the Atlas Water Company, pursuant to bacteria -
sampling of September 21, 1977, and all samples performed monthly
from the year 1960 has successfully supplied a safe and palatable
drinking water according to public health standards.
We would like to reiterate that we corrected this oversight
and assure you that we do provide you with an adequate supply of
safe drinking water.
Very truly yours,
s/ Ronald Lafko
Superintendent
Ron Lafko, operator and part owner of the Atlas Water Company,
was present and the Supervisor requested that he add his comments
to the matter placed before the Board by Mr. Rose. Each and
every allegation mentioned by Mr. Rose was answered by Mr. Lafko
and he constantly referred to the record of the operation of the
company. He felt no animosity towards Mr. Rose and there were
good relations between them ---in fact he uses his monitoring
ability as a key margin relating to the operation of the system,
however, he was frustrated over some of the comments made since
there has been a distinct lack of contact from Mr. Rose to the
Atlas Water Company regarding these complaints, with the exception
of the pressure problem. Although he did not put the fact in
writing, he did inform Mrs. Rose that the pressure problem was
due to the plumbing in the house. He discussed the incident of
the blowout of the pumping station two weeks ago and his immediate
response and efforts to restore the water service to his customers.
An inspection was made by the Dutchess County Department of Health
two days before Christmas and the water was found to be satisfactory.
He will continue, with the help of the neighbors to improve the
security at that location. The letter written into the minutes
was a mandatory requirement by the Health Department if tests are
not conducted at designated times. In this instance he admitted
the oversight and the test was conducted shortly after it was
required to be done and the water was found to be satisfactory,
as always, past and present. Mr. Lafko was provided with a copy
of the correspondence package which had been presented to the
Town Board previously and Mrs. Paino requested Mr. Rose to outline
his water service situation as it exists after the incident on
January 20, 1986 and forward it to Mr. Lafko. She felt that with
the proper communication between them, they could work out these
problems. Mr. McCluskey concurred with this action and added
that if there were misunderstandings between them, the matter
should come back to the Town Board and perhaps they could help
to iron them out. A brief discussion ensued between the Supervisor
and Mr. Lafko regarding the additional security he has provided
to protect the propane tank at the site of the pumping station.
Mr. Lafko explained the situation and noted that he would make
every effort to assure the safety of the tank and the station.
The next communication was from Douglas Schner, Pizzagalli
Development Company requesting that the Town accept a water
booster station and eight inch water main interconnection
between the Atlas Water System and CWWIA.
MR. FARINA moved to table action on this matter until it is
discussed at the Town Board work shop session on February 13,
1986 with Mr. Schner.
Seconded by Mrs. Visconti
Motion Unanimously Carried
A request was received from Clinten Lucas for a reevaluation
of a building permit for property located at 281 Myers Corners
Road. There was a question previously on this permit due to
the existence of a pond on the property. In his letter, Mr.
Lucas asked the Town to specifically pay note to the possible
rerouting of the pond back to its original state of a stream.
He had contacted Mr. Martin, one of the Engineers to the Town,
who indicated that there would be no problem with this request,
and recommended that Mr. Lucas put his request in the form of a
letter to the Town Board so that the Town could officially approve
the change.
MR. MCCLUSKEY moved to refer this matter to the Engineer for his
inspection and report to the Board.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. McCluskey added his comment that it should be referred to the
Conservation Advisory Council, however, Mrs. Paino suggested that
they wait for the Engineer's report.
Mr. Edward Lawrence, 113 Stoneykill Road, Town of Wappinger,
wrote to the Board enclosing two petitions signed by the area
residents ---one for a lower speed limit on Stoneykill Road, the
second for cablevision service on their road.
MR. REIS moved to request the Dutchess County Department of
Public Works and the New York State Department of Transportation
to lower the speed limit on Stoneykill Road to 35 MPH.
Seconded by Mr. McCluskey
Motion Unanimously Carried
On the second request, Mr. Lawrence had discussed with Mr. Reis
and felt the Town Board could request the cable company to provide
116.
service to the residents on that road.
MRS. PAINO moved to send a letter to Howard Erichsen, Manager
of U. S. Cablevision regarding this request and forward a copy
of the petition signed by the area residents.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. John Fusaro wrote to the Board, on behalf of the owners of
homes on Losee Road, who also signed the letter, complaining about
the increased traffic problems on both Losee Road and Sucich Place.
Mr. Fusaro was present and elaborated on these problems which have
been getting progressively worse during the six years he has lived
there. It is used as a cutoff road from the Town of Fishkill traffic,
Old Hopewell Road, plus a proposed new development on All Angels Hill
Road and in its present state, the road is not condusive to heavy
traffic. He requested that the Town Board work with them on their
suggestions to alleviate the problems.
Mr. Farina asked that the Highway Superintendent and the Engineer to
the Town investigate the existing problems and report back to the
Board with any recommendations they feel would help.
Correspondence was received from the Dutchess County Commissioners
of Election regarding requirements mandated by the State that all
election district lines have visable boundary lines. The Census
Bureau requires that the boundaries be clearly defined and changes
made by March 15, 1986.
As Chairman of the Election Committee, David Reis reported that he
had contacted the Commissioners on these changes who requested that
a meeting be held within the next ten days to discuss the matter.
Mr. McCluskey was of the opinion that the usual procedure was for
the local Republicans and Democrats to both submit a plan for the
changes and meet to discuss the most feasible one; it is then
presented to the Town Board for their approval. In the event they
do not come up with an acceptable plan, the County will make the
required changes.
Mr. Reis noted that the Commissioners indicated that the districts
themselves would not change -- the intent was to remove some of the
lines from the middle of nowhere, for instance, out in a field, or
in someone's back yard, and clearly define them on a road.
�q
Mrs. Bernice Mills, was recognized by the Chair and stated that she
was in contact with the Democratic Commissioner, Walter Jablonski,
today, who indicated that the Town of Wappinger has a lot of problems
with some of the districts. She agreed that they had to be changed
without altering the Wards or Districts and she would like to be
present at a meeting for this discussion when the date was determined.
MR. MCCLUSKEY moved to accept the letter from the Commissioners
of the Board of Election and place it on file.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
A letter of complaint was received from Ray Norcross regarding
the condition of River Road North which has been left strewed
with dirt and mud as a result of the PASNY construction.
Mrs. Paino noted that she had visited that area with the Engineer
after receiving the complaint and found that it had been cleared
off, however, she did request that the Highway Superintendent
check it periodically to make sure it stays that way.
Michael Hirkala, was recognized by the Chair, and noted that the
area of Route 9D and Old State Road was still covered with mud
and dangerous to ride when wet; he had mentioned this fact to the
Highway Superintendent when he met him.
MRS. PAINO moved to send a letter to PASNY indicating that there
is a problem on the roads where they are doing their construction
and request that they please leave the roads in a clean condition
for the safety of the motorists.
Seconded by Mr. McCluskey
Motion Unanimously Carried
A notice was received from the Village Zoning Board of Appeals
indicating that a Public Hearing would be held in the Mesier
Homestead on February 4, 1986 relating to a request from
Wappingers Youth Outreach, DBA Community Services Program who
were seeking a variance to convert the premises of the present
Town Hall into commercial offices and dwelling units, due to the
shortage of square feet and parking requirements.
MR. MCCLUSKEY moved to receive the Notice of Public Hearing from
the Village of Wappingers Falls and place it on file.
Seconded by Mrs. Paino
Motion Unanimously Carried
A Memo was received from Hugh J. Maurer, Chairman of the
Recreation Commission informing the Board that Mr. Ed Shelley
owner of about 52 acres on Robinson Lane, approached the
Commission Members at their January 16th, 1986 meeting and
proposed a project to mine his property, for a period of five
to ten years, to create a lake of approximately 31 acres. When
this project reached its completion he would turn it over to the
Town for recreational purposes. The Commission Members, Mr.
Maurer noted, agreed with the concept of the plan.
Mr. McCluskey was familiar with the proposal since, he thought
it came before the Board previously. It sounded good to him,
however, his concern was that it would be done in a strict time
frame plus strict supervision by the Engineer to the Town. He
suggested that the Board meet with Mr. Shelley to discuss the
proposition further. He also noted that a similar project was
conducted in Fishkill on the Red Wing property successfully, but
there were many questions to be answered.
Mrs. Paino added her concern of the effect on the Sprout Creek
aquifer which abuts Mr. Shelley's property. She was receptive to
addressing the proposal further and requested Mr. Shelley to
contact her office for a definite work shop date for discussion
with the Town Board.
A Memo was received from the Planning Board informing this Board
that they had appointed Mr. Parsons as their Vice -Chairman.
MRS. PAINO moved to receive this correspondence and place it on
file.
Seconded by Mr. Farina
Motion Unanimously Carried
A thank you letter was received from Pop Warner Football partici-
pants for financial support from the Town for their transportation
expenses to the two bowl games they were involved in which were
Stanford, Connecticut and Alexander City, Alabama.

Seconded by Mrs. Paino
Motion Unanimously Carried
A response was received from Mr. James Gray, Highway Reimbursement
Coordinator with Chas. T. Main of New York, regarding our letter
of complaint regarding the condition of Pine Ridge Drive as a
A
result of the PASNY construction. At the time he inspected the
roads on January 13, 1986, he found neither damage to the roads
nor debris on them, and assured the Town they would attempt to
keep the roads safe and in good shape during the construction.
MRS. PAINO moved to receive this letter and place it on file.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Two letters were received from Mary Ann Albonesi, Community
Development Administrator of the Community Development Program
(Consortium Funds); the first related to the close out of the
old programs, specifically 1983 and 1984. Mrs. Paino noted that
the Comptroller and his Assistant is reviewing the status of
monies left over from these years with Ms. Albonesi.
The second letter referenced signature cards from authorized
officials for the 1986 program. One individual from each
municipality must be designated to oversee the financial
transactions related to the CD Program, to approve all purchase
documents vouchers, invoices, etc.; a second person must be
designated to perform the bookkeeping function, and a third
person to certify completion of the work.
MR. FARINA moved to authorize the Supervisor to approve all
purchase documents, vouchers, invoices, etc. that effect CD
funds.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
MR. FARINA moved to authorize the Comptroller to perform the
actual bookkeeping function.

responsibility.

Committee Reports ---
Mr. McCluskey did not have a report for this meeting, but wished
to express concern on another matter relating to the poor operation
of the Regional Section Center Postoffice in the Imperial Plaza.
Some of the problems include ---poorly lit area where people drop
mail and buy stamps causing concern to women patrons who feel it
is not a safe area; vending machines constantly out of order.
When he complained about the machines, the response he received
was that they are checked weekly, sometimes biweekly, however,
money is being deposited and no merchandise is received.
He has had requests from some residents for a curb side mail drop
which would allow mail to be deposited without the necessity of
the driver leaving the car. This, he feels, would relieve traffic
congestion at that location. Another point he brought up was that
since there are personnel on duty 24 hours a day, mail should be
picked up closer to midnight, presently the last pickup is
approximately 6:30 P.M. and after that time the mail deposited is
not postmarked for that date. Before the Postoffice was located
in that area a window was always open at the main postoffice in
Poughkeepsie. We are receiving poor service from the local post -
office and he would like them to be aware of this fact.
MR. MCCLUSKEY moved to direct a letter to the Regional Section
Center Postoffice in Poughkeepsie alerting them of these facts
and request that they provide better service to the residents
in this area.
Seconded by Mrs. Visconti
Motion Unanimously Carried.
David Reis, Recreation, noted that the job description, length
of time and Salary submitted by the Recreation Commission for
51
the position of maintenance director differed from the original
amount placed in the budget. The numbers submitted by the
Commission were $11.00 per hour for eight months, which repre-
sented a yearly salary of between $16,000 to $17,000, the
numbers in the budget were $7.00 per hour for nine months,
yearly salary of $10,000; he noted that he would get back with
the Commission and have them change the figures.
The Recreation Commission had a meeting with a representative
of the school district regarding a study for a swimming pool
and a report will be forthcoming within the next two weeks.
David Reis, Building and Housing re Town Hall. He has been
visiting the site daily and each time finds some new minor
problems. Attempts have been made by the contractor to rectify
the floor problems, but there are still high spots which have
to be corrected. The spackling on the walls are not satisfactory
and require further work. Further discussion will be held with
the architect regarding correction of these problems. At this
point he could give no date for moving.
Vincent Farina, Ordinance Committee, reported that the Citizens
Zoning Advisory Committee will meet on Tuesday, February 3, 1986
at 7:30 P.M.
Vincent Farina, Landfill Committee, reported that correspondence
was received from Camo Pollution Control regarding a monthly
increase in the maintenance charge for the landfill from $245.00
per month to $524 a month due to inflation and increased fees.
The original contract was negotiated in 1978 and it is their
belief that this is comparable 1986 dollars. A meeting will be
held regarding this increase.
Vincent Farina, Water and Sewer, reported that correspondence
has been received from the Supervisor of Fishkill indicating
that there will be no change in the benefit assessment for the
Watch Hill Water District. A Public Hearing was held last
Monday regarding Town of Fishkill taking over the Brinckerhoff
Water Company, which is the Watch HIll Water District and he
will discuss the matter further with Councilman Roubaud from
Fishkill. He has also contacted Camo Pollution Control re the
purchase for their recommendations.
91
Bernice Mills was recognized by the Chair and questioned if
each municipality was assessed the same charge for the landfill.
Mrs. Paino assumed they were since the letter was addressed to
the Board of Directors and she would receive more information
when she attended their meeting next week.
Mrs. Mills then asked the Town Board what they were doing about
the fact that the Airport Balefill has been cited as a hazardous
site; she was concerned over this fact and felt the Town Board
should push on it at the county level.
Wappinger County Legislator, Sandra Goldberg, was recognized
by the Chair and explained the procedure in designating the
balefill as a potential hazardous site; she had not checked the
status recently but it has gone to Phase I testing to determine
if there is a potential hazard to the area and they will then go
to Phase II testing to determine what the hazard is and how it
can be cleaned up. She will update the information on this
matter.
June Visconti, Dial -A -Ride Liaison Member of Town Board, attended
the January Meeting regarding concern of senior citizens; they
are trying to increase number of seniors utilizing the service.
They are implementing a pilot program in Wappinger and will
monitor number of passengers; if it appears successful, they will
continue in other towns.
June Visconti, Airport Advisory Committee, missed the January
Meeting due to no communication received since they were not
knowledgable of her appointment. She then set up a meeting
with Commissioner Whited who enlightened her of the situation
at the airport. It is her understanding that the County Legislators
will take a vote on the takeover of the airport operation by
Richmor Aviation on March 10, 1986 at 4 P.M. Directing her
statement to Sandra Goldberg, Mrs. Visconti noted that Mrs.
Goldberg had indicated she would check on the possibility of
holding a public informational meeting in the Town of Wappinger.
Mrs. Goldberg concurred that there would be a public hearing at
the County on March 10, 1986 at 4 P.M. and following the hearing
at their regular business meeting, consideration of the contract
would be on the agenda. They have arranged an informational
meeting at Brendan's Restaurant at the Airport probably, sometime
during the week of February 24th --nothing definite yet. In
answer to Mrs. Visconti's question on the Legislator's stand on
this issue, Mrs. Goldberg felt there was strong support for
Richmor Aviation. There was no doubt Richmor planned to make a
profit on this operation, but if they can, why can't the County,
however, to do this, they would have to expend monies. There
were many pros and cons to consider.
Resolutions ---
Bids for Highway Materials were opened on the 29th of January
1986. A Bid Report was submitted by the Highway Superintendent
which is attached hereto and made part thereof of the Minutes
of this Meeting.
MRS. PAINO moved to award the bids for the Highway Materials, Fuel Oil
and Gasoline
to the companies recommended by the Highway Superintendent.
Seconded by Mr. Reis

SECTION II. This amendment shall become effective upon

MRS. PAINO moved to refer the Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
to the Town of Wappinger Planning Board and the Dutchess County
Department of Planning for their review and recommendation.
Seconded by Mr. McCluskey
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mrs. Paino moved to set a Public Hearing on this Amendment to

set) at 7:00 P.M. The motion was seconded by Mr. McCluskey and
was unanimously carried.
r,
F]
SG
Michael Hirkala, was recognized by the Chair, and stated that
he felt the recommendations from the agencies the Amendment was
referred to should be received in time for the Public Hearing so
the public was aware of them; the next Town Board Meeting would
be too short a time for these recommendations to be received.
MRS. PAINO moved to rescind her previous motion setting the
Public Hearing for the next Town Board Meeting and Mr. McCluskey
rescinded his second to the motion.
Seconded by Mr. McCluskey
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mrs. Snowden asked the Board if they wished to consider changing
the date of the next Town Board Meeting, February 17th, which is
a holiday and also the week of the Association of Town's Meeting.
Mrs. Paino moved to set the Town Board Meeting for Thursday,
February 20, 1986 at 7:30 P.M.
Mr. Reis.
The motion was seconded by
Both Mr. McCluskey and Mrs. Visconti noted that they were unable
to attend the Meeting on that night. They did not have a problem
making it on the 24th of February, however, that was Planning
Board Meeting and also too close to the March Town Board Meeting.
MRS. PAINO moved to forego the second Town Board Meeting for
February, 1986.
Seconded by Mr. McCLuskey
Motion Unanimously Carried
Next on the Agenda was a communication from the Recreation
Commission seeking permission for the Engineer to prepare
specs to go to bid on a building at the Quiet Acres Playground.
The Commission had requested the Board to consider this as a
Capital Project when their budget was submitted and they hoped
to have the building completed in time for the Summer Playground
Program.
Mr. McCluskey had concerns about putting a building in this
location as it was conducive to flooding during the rainy
seasons; the Commission is on record as stating that top soil
and stone is frequently washed away. He recommended that the
Engineer check out the area and report to the Board.
MR. MCCLUSKEY moved that the Engineers to the Town inspect
the location of the proposed building in the Quiet Acres area
and submit a report to the Town Board on the feasibility of
51
constructing a building for the Summer Playground Program.
Seconded by Mrs. Paino
Motion Unanimously Carried

Unfinished Business ---
Hayward and Pakan have indicated that the County wants several
trees removed from the site of the new Town Hall at the exit
on to Middlebush Road to improve the site distance. A letter
was forwarded to the Planning Board for their recommendation and
�g
a response was received indicating that they would recommend
the removal of only the trees that were necessary.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the contractors to remove whatever
trees they deem necessary to improve the site distance at the
exit from the new Town Hall, as indicated by the architects on
the plot plan.
Seconded by Mr. McCluskey
Motion Unanimously Carried
An invoice has been received from Hayward and Pakan for payment
to the General Contractor; after a meeting with John Kane and
Charles Liscum of Hayward and Pakan, and a review of items yet
to be completed to satisfaction, some of the payment will be
withheld.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the payment of $66,119.00 to
Hayward and Pakan for work done by the General Contractor of
the new Town Hall.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
A Change Order request has been received relating to kick plates
on the doors; removal of cabinets from the Assessor's Office and
larger ones installed; a change in counter for the Receiver of
Taxes, not comfortable for her height.
MRS. PAINO moved to approve the Change Order requests and
authorize the Supervisor to sign same.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. Farina reported on receipt of a communication from the
Comptroller's Office requesting the Town Board to invoke
spending limitations at the Association of Towns Meeting and
recommends the following: reimbursement of $50.00 a day for
meals, $20.00 a day for parking, $.22 a mile for mileage at a
maximum of 150 miles, $77.00 for lodging, taxis, prior approval,
car rentals, prior approval; items not to be reimbursed --alcoholic
beverages and sundry items. The Comptroller further noted that
it would be to the benefit of all if the cost of the trip would
be kept to the minimum so there will be money in the budget for
other seminars later in the year.
MR. FARINA moved to approve the recommendations of the amounts
to be spent for the Association of Towns Meeting, as listed by
the Comptroller.
Seconded by Mr. Reis
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mrs. Paino referred to a recent project put out to bid a few
months ago on the Hilltop Drainage and noted that no bids were
received. It is a location that needs this work done and it was
her recommendation that the Town rebid on the project.
MRS. PAINO moved to authorize the Engineers to the Town to
prepare specs to go to bid on the Hilltop Drainage Project.
Seconded by Mr. McCluskey
Motion Unanimously Carried
Mr. Incoronato, was recognized by the Chair and asked about the
status of the Capolino Zoning violation in the Justice Court.
He felt it was time the Town provided the proper accusatory
instrument so the Court could properly proceed with this case.
He continued on the same vein and noted that several hundred;
yards of fill were being put in to Lawrence Farms; our Zoning
Ordinance required a special use permit for this activity and
as far as he knew, none had been issued. Another complaint he
had was the billboards near the Redl property on Route 9, which
are in violation by size and also not related to the use of that
property.
Mr. McCluskey noted that the traffic light at Waldbaums (Wappinger
Plaza) is not timed in sequence with the one at Route 9 and Myers
Corners Road. As a result of this, motorists accelerate when the
Myers Corners light changes only to have to come to an abrupt stop
as the Waldbaum light turns red.
MR. MCCLUSKEY moved to contact the New York State Department of
Transportation to alert them of this fact and ask that they
review the situation and rectify this problem if this is their
recommendation.
Seconded by Mrs. Paino
Motion Unanimously Carried
There was no other business to come before the Board.
Reg.
Mtg.
MR. MCCLUSKEY moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Mr. Reis
2/3/86 and unanimously carried.
