Dear Ms. Snowden:
ELAINE SNOWDEN
TOWN CLE'RK
This will confirm our commencement of the research of the records of the Town of Wappinger.
We will be in Wappinger on Monday, July 14,1997, at 9:00 a.m. to initiate this research and the
preparation of the Code of the Town of Wappinger. Please be assured that this will result in a
minimal disruption of your daily routine.
To facilitate our work and to minimize the interruption of your normal activities, we will need
the following:
1. An adequately lighted area with table or desktop space adequate for reviewing minute
books.
2. Access to all of the minute and ordinance books and local law files, as well as any
available printed copies of ordinances, local laws and electronic versions, if available.
Our goal will be to obtain existing duplicate copies or to make copies of all such
effective legislation. Any assistance that you can provide in this regard will be greatly
accepted.
3. A list of the names of town officials for our records.
4. Any historical information regarding the town that the Town Board may wish to have
included in the Preface.
5. A reproducible-quality copy of the Official Emblem or Town Seal. (An imprint or a
letterhead may be sufficient.)
6. A clear copy of the Official Zoning and/or Street Map.
7. Vouchers for billing purposes.
It may also prove time conserving to both of us if one of your assistants, or someone in your
office, could be assigned to help in locating records, showing us through the town offices and
answering questions.
The codification and editing of your Code will begin as soon as we return to our offices with the
research material. An editor will be assigned to organize and evaluate your existing legislation
and prepare recommendations as to this legislation and new subject matter. Following the
completion of this phase of the codification, we will meet with the representatives of the Town
Board for the Editorial Conference.
