1981-11-05 PHA Public Hearing was held by the Town Board of the Town of
Wappinger on November 5, 1981, at Town Hall, Mill Street,
Village of Wappingers Falls, Dutchess County, New York,
on the Preliminary Budget concurrently with the Federal
Revenue Sharing Budget of 1982 for the Town of Wappinger.
Deputy Supervisor Johnson opened the Hearing at 7:06 P.M.
Present:
Nicholas Johnson, Deputy Supervisor
Bernice Mills, Councilwoman
Janet Reilly, Councilwoman
Frank Versace, Councilman
Elaine H. Snowden, Town Clerk
Absent:
Louis Diehl, Supervisor
The Town Clerk offered for the record the Affidavits of
Posting and Publication duly signed and notarized. (These
Affidavits are attached hereto and made part thereof of the
minutes of this Hearing).
Joseph Incoronato, Ronsue Drive, questioned the increase from
$22,280.95 to the projected 1982 figure of $38,210.00; however
the 1981 budget was $35,666.00 so the largest part of the
increase was from 1980 to 1981 which was due to work on the
plant which was mandated by the state, part of which is re-
imbursable.. When he asked about the possibility of additional
funding, the answer was that at this time, nobody knew. He then
questioned a decrease in the Mid -Point Park Sewer District from
$30,139.00 in 1981 to $25,814.00 for 1982; it was explained that
there was an expenditure of approximately $6,000 for a new chain
in 1981, however, the chlorine expenditure was not calculated
correctly and more money was put in for that line item, other-
wise, there would have been a larger decrease.
A reportef asked about the $50,000 which was being removed
from the building fund and was informed that this amount was
not being removed, kt just was not being added to the fund this
year; the anticipated interest on this account will go into
the General Fund to help reduce the amount to be raised by
taxes. It is not -an item that has to be put in each year,
it is at the discretion of the Board.
Mr. Versace spoke while the residents were reviewing the
budget and asked where the transfer of $81,000 showed which
was discussed at the work shop sessions. The Comptroller
pointed out the line item and explained that it was the
balance of various drainage projects that had not been
expended.
Mr. Incoronato asked where the budget increase was in Recreation;
Mr. Maurer explained that there was nothing major added, the
budget reflected a 7% inflation plus a slight increase in the
Senior Citizen activities.
Mr. Johnson called for a five minute recess at 7:26 P.M. to
give the public the opportunity to review the budget and
comment on the items they had questions on.
The Hearing was resumed at 7:32 P.M. and all four Board Members
were present.
Mr. Incoronato resumed his questioning and was now noting the
increase in the Building Inspector/Zoning Administrator line
item on Personal Services from $31,000 to $48,000; this was
due to a request for full time assistance for this department
head rather than the part time help which had been allocated in
the 1981 budget, plus the increases put in for the employees in
that department. Mr. Incoronato noted that there had formerly
been two people for that position; it was then changed to one
position with an increase in salary for that person, now they
have the same situation, however another full time employee
would bring that figure up again. In the opinion of the Board,
Mr. Johnson explained, that department was better served by the
one person in charge and a full time assistant was necessary
due to the increased work load caused by the new State codes
and the Energy Code.
Aside from noting that some line items had been reduced, Mr.
Incoronato had no other comments, nor did anyone else present
comments on any items contained in the budget.
Mr. Johnson commented that the Board had not completed the
budget review and some sections still had to be discussed
which they intended to do in future work shop session.
The Board would accept any further comments in writing
that the residents, upon further review of the budget,
cared to submit, Mr. Versace added and all agreed.
Mrs. Mills moved to close the Public Hearing, seconded by
Mrs. Reilly and unanimously carried.
