She asked for clarification on Resolution 2011-176. Supervisor Colsey explained that this Resolution would take money that was in the swimming budget line and use it to replace a computer in the Senior Center. Ms. Schmalz then commented on a piece of correspondence having to do with the Community Day. She feels that it is a waste of time and money to have to Community Day in September. She has pictures from last year that show that the park was completely empty. She has an itemized list of expenses totaling $20,000 for the event. She again noted that September is not appropriate. Councilman Beale noted that Community Day has been in September for 20 years. Discussion followed.

Town of Wappinger Page 3 Printed 5/13/2011 Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2011 IX. Discussions A. Town Hall Usage Policy - Committee Update Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 7:38 PM. Councilman Bettina noted that he has been working with Councilman Paoloni on developing a Town Hall Usage Policy. Their position is that bona fide not for profit groups are going to be permitted to use the Town Hall at no cost and without providing a certificate of liability insurance. All others would have to pay a fee and provide a certificate of liability insurance. The Board would have to decide on the fee. Supervisor Colsey noted that churches frequently ask to use the Town Hall. If approved, the Town would have to assign an employee to be at Town Hall for the duration of the event. Councilwoman Czarniecki noted that homeowner associations have used the Town Hall in the past. Councilman Bettina feels that such groups would not be considered a for-profit organization. He added that the Board would need to decide what a reasonable amount of time to permit a group to use Town Hall would be. He went on to say that some other towns do not charge to use their facility. Discussion followed. Supervisor Colsey asked Councilman Bettina and Councilman Paoloni to submit their recommendations in writing. Councilman Bettina agreed. Graham Foster, Highway Superintendent, asked if the Town is compromising security by handing out keys and alarm system codes. Supervisor Colsey clarified that the Town is not doing that. Councilman Beale noted that there are many other things to consider and he does not approve of giving groups free reign of the Town Hall. Councilman Bettina stated that he has looked at how other towns allocate usage. Councilwoman Czarniecki made a motion to approve Resolution 2011-174. Supervisor Colsey pointed out that the Board was not discussing Resolution 2011-174. He explained that the Board was in discussion item "A". Councilman Beale recommended that the Board take a look at the policy in place in the school district. Councilman Bettina will include that in the material that he submits for the Board's review. Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 7:48 PM. B. 2011 Community Day - Colsey/Holt Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 7:48 PM. Ralph Holt, Recreation Liaison to the Town Board, noted that Community Day has been held at Schlathaus park for 25 years. The Recreation Committee was looking into moving Community Day to June. That is not possible because the amusement park ride companies are not available. This past Community Day was not a success. The Town was in competition with other municipalities that were having similar events and the weather was not great. The Committee will look at pushing the event up earlier. If earlier, such as June, the children would not have left yet for summer vacation and there would be less competition with other towns. Mr. Holt then noted that summer camp registration is under way and the Town is having the lowest turn -out since he's been involved. He attributes this to the economy. The Town spends a little more than $10,000 to run Community Day. $4,500 of that goes towards the parade, $900 for five bands. The tent that goes in front of the bandstand costs $800. Another $900 pays for a musician to play on the bandstand for two hours. Mr. Holt doesn't think that the Town can, nor should, spend that much this year. He has met with the Recreation Committee and has recommendations. The fireworks show does attract residents and should not be cut. The tent in front of the bandstand serves many purposes and should not be cut. The musician was received well up until last year. Despite the fact that it was not popular last year, he feels it should not be cut. Mr. Holt then discussed the revenues. He claimed that the ticket sales for the carnival rides covers the cost. Councilman Beale asked for clarification on where the revenue for the rides goes. Mr. Holt answered that the Rotary Club sells the tickets and keeps the money. Councilman Beale asked if Mr. Holt was aware of how much money the Midway made last year. Mr. Holt was not. Councilman Beale noted that $15,000 of revenue was produced. He feels that this arrangement needs to be reexamined. $15,000 of revenue is not a "wash". Mr. Holt noted that there is a 20 -man crew that works Community Day on both days. The amusement company has pointed out to Councilman Beale that they made the most money that they've ever made at last year's Community Day. He agrees that some things may need to be cut, but the Town should also look at the revenues that are coming in. Mr. Holt added that the Town receives $100 for each gaming booth at the Midway. Some of the booths in the park area are vendor booths. The Town received $25 for the booths occupied by vendors, but many of the booths were vacant. Mr. Holt recommends increasing the fee for a vendor booth to $50 for the two days. He then went on to discuss ways to put on the parade at less cost. One option is to utilize local high school bands. Another is to have the fire departments pay for the marching bands. If these options don't take effect, the Town should not do the parade. Councilman Beale feels that the Town should not eliminate the parade. He pointed out that the Dutchess County St. Patrick's Day Parade is funded by selling ads in a journal. He went on to say that it is hard to justify spending $15,000-$20,000 on a Community Town of Wappinger Page 4 Printed 5113/2011 Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2011 Day, while people are losing their jobs. The Town needs to organize the Day in a way that attracts people. He then asked Mr. Holt what his opinion is as far as Community Day running one day or two days. Mr. Holt is against having a two day Community Day. The Board went on to discuss how many days the event has been in recent history. Councilman Beale feels that the Town could put together a good one day event instead of a mediocre event covering two days. Discussion followed. Mary Schmalz noted that September is not a good time to be holding the Community Day. She informed the Board that the Dutchess County Classic is scheduled for the same day. She added that the Village of Wappingers Falls will be hosting the Roof-A-Thon again this coming September. And finally, Ms. Schmalz reminded the Board of the poor turn -out for last year's Community Day, which occurred in the month of September. Ms. Schmalz also objected to the amount of money paid to Town employees working on Community Day. She feels that a more appropriate day for Community Day would be July 4th. There are no events in Southern Dutchess County that would conflict with Community Day if it were on July 4th. Barbara Gutzler was next to speak. She is disappointed that the length of the parade has been cut down. She asked why the route was shortened. There were no Board Members that knew. Councilman Beale closed the discussion with the recommendation that the contract for the musician be looked over. He feels that $900 for two hours is too much. Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 8:10 PM. C. United Wappinger Water District Extension #2 - Colsey/Gray Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 8:10 PM. According to Bob Gray, Engineer to the Town, the Town has received an application, by letter, from STS Tire Center, Aroma Osteria and a private residence adjacent to Aroma Osteria requesting water and sewer. Mr. Gray went on to discuss the request. Mr. Gray explained that the Town Board needs to be aware of what is going on. A letter of interest has been submitted and escrow has been set up for when the project moves forward. Supervisor Colsey added that Tri -Muni would have to sign off. Mr. Gray summarized that, if escrow and an application are provided, he and the Attorney to the Town will forward the map, plan and report. Supervisor Colsey made a motion to authorize the professionals to move forward on the request to connect to water and sewer for these three parcels, provided that an escrow is established for each connection. The motion was seconded by Councilman Bettina. Councilman Beale noted that residence being discussed has multiple zoning violations that need to be remedied. He would like to make sure that the parcel is in compliance before the Town approves the connection. Discussion followed. The motion passed unanimously. Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 8:16 PM. Motion To: authorize the professionals to move forward on the request to connect to water and sewer, provided that an escrow is established for each connection ( RESULT: ADOPTED [UNANIMOUS] tMOVER: Christopher Colsey, Supervisor SECONDER: Vincent Bettina, Councilman AYES: Colsey, Beale, Bettina, Czamiecki, Paoloni D. Steel Water Storage Tank for UWWD - Colsey/Gray Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 8:16 PM. Bob Gray, Engineer to the Town, updated the Town Board on the proposed water tank replacement on Cider Mill Loop. The replacement tank specifications have been approved by the New York State Department of Health. The next step would be to authorize him to prepare contract documents to go out to bid. He reminded the Board that it would not be best to do the work during the summer. He recommends that the Board look to start the work during the week after Labor Day. He went on to discuss the new tank. Supervisor Colsey recommended that, since this project could potentially draw from Wappinger United Water fund balance, this next step should be done by formal Resolution. Mr. Gray added that the map, plan and report would need to be modified. Supervisor Colsey made a motion to authorize the Attorney to the Town to do a Resolution for the items that the Engineer to the Town has described. The motion was seconded by Councilman Beale and passed unanimously. The Town Board agreed to consider the Resolution when presented. Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 8:19 PM. Town of Wappinger Page 5 Printed 5/13/2011 Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2011 Motion To: authorize the Attorney to the Town to do a Resolution for the items that the Engineer to the Town has described RESULT: ADOPTED [UNANIMOUS] MOVER: Christopher Colsey, Supervisor SECONDER: William Beale, Councilman AYES: Colsey, Beale, Bettina, Czarniecki, Paoloni E. Blackwatch Farm Subdivision - Colsey/Gray Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 8:19 PM. Bob Gray, Engineer to the Town, reminded the Board that the developer was given a deadline of June 1 st to have the roads complete. They have been working and the paving is planned for May 10th. Before the roads can be accepted by the Town, a shed in a drainage easement has to be addressed. The Board can decide to permit the shed to remain in place by license. Discussion followed. Al Roberts, Attorney of the Town, explained that the owner of the property got a building permit to erect a shed. This was done without the benefit of a survey. As a result, nobody picked up on the fact that the location of the shed was going to be in the drainage easement. Mr. Roberts went on to explain the options. Councilman Paoloni asked if this was due to an error on the part of the Town. Mr. Roberts answered that it is due to the fact that the property owner did not submit a survey. Discussion followed. Supervisor Colsey asked if the Board would like to authorize the Attorney to the Town to draw up the license for the homeowner. Councilman Bettina stated that the Attorney needs to be paid but he is not willing to absorb the cost. Mr. Gray pointed out that there is escrow money for the subdivision. Supervisor Colsey asked if the contractor will authorize using escrow money for this. Councilman Beale recommended that the property owner be given the choice to either remove the shed or go through the licensing process. Mr. Roberts again gave a brief history of the issue. Discussion followed. Supervisor Colsey asked for a motion to authorize the Attorney to the Town to draw up a license, subject to the utilization of escrow. The motion was made by Councilman Paoloni, seconded by Councilman Beale and passed unanimously. Mr. Roberts recommended that a copy of this "Resolution" be sent to developer's attorney. Councilman Bettina asked that it be sent to the developer and his attorney. Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 8:29 PM. Motion To: authorize the Attorney to the Town to draw up a license, subject to the utilization of escrow RESULT: ADOPTED [UNANIMOUS] MOVER: Joseph Paoloni, Councilman } SECONDER: William Beale, Councilman AYES: Colsey, Beale, Bettina, Czarniecki, Paoloni F. Sewer Pump Station - Colsey/Gray Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 8:29 PM. Bob Gray, Engineer to the Town, advised the Town Board that there is an existing pump station on the west side of Baldwin Drive. That pump station pumps out to the gravity sewer. There is a development proposed for a three - lot subdivision by the name BVM Development. That three -lot subdivision will be constructing a gravity sewer adjacent to the Baldwin Drive pump station. The developer has agreed to provide an easement to the Town, which would let the Town abandon the the pump station and build a gravity sewer from Baldwin Drive to the developer's gravity sewer. Mr. Gray has spoken with Mike Tremper, from CAMO Pollution Control, about this topic. Mr. Tremper noted that the pump station will be needing replacement in the near future. This proposal would be a great alternative and should cost less than replacing the pump station. Mr. Gray went on to say that the developer will work with the Planning Board to make sure that there is a suitable easement to provide for this. Discussion followed. The Board was in favor of Mr. Gray's proposal. Mr. Gray summarized that he will work with the Planning Board and secure an easement in favor of the Town. Down the road, he will present a capital project to replace the pump station. Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 8:32 PM.
