Re: Memorandum from Shirley Flint of General Code Publishers
Dear Dave:
In connection with Ms. Flint's comments regarding Local Law No.7 of2005, it is my
recommendation that no amendments be made to Section 137-5. With respect to Section
137 -7, it is my recommendation that a period should follow Subsection B( 5)(b).
With respect to Local Law No. 2-2005, it appears that we will have to re-adopt the Local
Law with the diagram attached. This is one of the difficulties that is created by using e-
mail to transmit legislative documents. When your office prepares a Local Law it should
ensure that all attachments are included in the proposed Local Law. In those
circumstances where attachments are required, I would recommend that the Local Law
with attachments be sent by overnight mail rather than bye-mail. In the alternative, clear
instructions have to be provided to the Town staff to make sure that the attachments are
added to your e-mail.

RE: Code Supplement No. 11
Hi Chris,
One more question, which I forgot to ask in my first e-~ail: There are amendments to both
the Subdivision ot Land and the Zoning cnapters with this supplement. In April you
purchased 12 Subdivision pamphlets, and in June 24 Zoning pamphlets, tor sale to the
public. 00 you wish to receive replacement alipsheets tor these pamphlets? If so, I will
need to know how many of each. Thanks again, Shirley Flint

> Dear Chris,

toll.owing questions:

> 1. You had requested that the Town's a-Code be updated to change the
Clerk's name to yours, as the new Clerk. We will also ehanqe the Officials psge in the
Code book. Please indicate how you would like your name to appear. We have it as "Chri~
Masterson." Is thia correct, or would you like a middle initial includ~d?
>
> 2. Are there any other changes to the Officials Page?
~ 3. Regarding~ ~o. 7~20~ there are two questions:
> ~~n Sec. 13 -5, n~ definition ot "CEPOSIT" reads "To fill,
place,(~ftec~, or dump..... Saeed on ~imilar wordi~~_the laqislation o!
other N~1ent.~ it seems that "effect" should be~ or "inject." Should we change
"effect" to one of these woX'd.s, or leave as i8?
> (2) See. 137-7, Subsection B(5) Cb) ends with "1 and" but no text y'
follOWS. Should we delete the "; and" and insert a peX'iod, or i$ there more text that
3hould follow Subsection Cb)?
~ 4. In~, No. _2-20~ Section 3A(6) and Section 4 refer to l!l
construct standard "AttachmQnt 6:1" (titled "Minimum Standards: Common Driveway"), but
there is no attachment with the local law. Should w. ins.X't a rootnote that this diaqram

,
is on fiie in the Town offices, or will you send the attachment for inclusion in the Code?
(If you can send it electronically, that would be best, but we can also work with a clear
black-on-white paper copy.) PleAse note that it it 90ea into the Code, we will IDb~l it
"Attachment ,.. because there is already an Attaehment 6 (titled " Planninq and Zoning-
Departments Fees And Escrow Funds") at the end of Chapter 240.
