Public Portion on Agenda Items Supervisor Ruggiero opened the floor for public comment on the agenda items at 7:34 PM. The first resident to comment was Donald A. Mazochi, of 18 Adams Street. Mr. Mazochi stated that he was supposed to be on this agenda but sees that he is not. Supervisor Ruggiero replied that Mr. Mazochi would be on the next agenda. The next resident to speak was Cathy Pritchard, of 95 Smith Crossing Road. She stated that her property and her home have been flooded by the recent storms. Supervisor Ruggiero proceeded to discuss the property in question with Jay Paggi, Engineer to the Town, and Graham Town of Wappinger Page I Printed 5/8/2007 Regular Meeting Minutes April 23, 2007 Foster, Town Highway Superintendent. Supervisor Ruggiero stated that the Town needs to contact the County Department of Public Works. Discussion followed. Valentino Dandrea, of 2 Country Club Lane, spoke next about the excessive noise level around the A.W. Scrap Processors property. Supervisor Ruggiero answered that the Town has responded to each of Mr. Dandrea's phone calls. The Director of Code Enforcement has also been sent out to the site early Friday morning. The company was cited for operating outside of the allowed hours of operation. Discussion followed. V. Discussion A. EMS Report - Joe Kovalsky Supervisor Ruggiero opened the discussion at 7:49 PM. Joe Kovalsky, Emergency Services Coordinator, was on hand to report the status of the TransCare services since his last report. He composed a snapshot of the January -February -March -April timeframe. This snapshot explained the amount of times that mutual aid was called in and how many times the third ambulance was used. He went on to list the call statistics, including response times. Councilwoman McCarthy asked that Mr. Kovalsky include a comparison between the current year and the previous year. She wanted to see if there was a difference with the Town using only two ambulances. Mr. Kovalsky replied that he has been working with TransCare to be able to compile reports comparing certain time periods to the same period of the previous year. Supervisor Ruggiero asked that monthly reports be submitted that compare a given month to the same month of the previous year. Mr. Kovalsky replied that that would be no problem. Councilman Beale mentioned a specific situation that occurred recently and asked that Mr. Kovalsky include any and all unique situations in his future reports. Mr. Kovalsky replied that he includes any concerns that are addressed to him by the Fire Chiefs. Discussion followed. Councilman Paoloni commented that all time is not equal and used the recent Nor'easter and the 4ch of July weekend as examples. Councilman Bettina asked if the ambulances that the Town is using have GPS capabilities. Supervisor Ruggiero explained that the County 911 system is looking to have GPS for police cars, ambulances and so on. Councilman Beale explained how it would apply to the Town and its ambulances. The Board then discussed the difference between a civilian GPS and the GPS that would be used in emergency response vehicles. With no further questions or comments for Mr. Kovalsky, Supervisor Ruggiero closed the discussion at 8:02 PM. B. Carnwath Farms Update - Don Swartz Supervisor Ruggiero opened the discussion at 8:02 PM. Don Swartz, of The Swartz Architectural Group, was present to update the Board on the repairs of the Carnwath property that have taken place since the last Meeting and what is still to be done. Mr. Swartz has delivered a memo to George Kolb, Director of Code Enforcement, with a copy going to the Supervisor's Office, which states that the emergency work is now complete. The structural engineer has also submitted a letter to the Town, which states that there are no longer any emergent conditions at the Mansion. Mr. Swartz informed the Board that the presentation that he was about to give would focus on the Carriage House. He pointed out that there would be about a week to a week and a half of work left on the Carriage House before the emergency could be lifted. Mr. Swartz then proceeded with his presentation with the aid of PowerPoint slides. At the conclusion of the presentation, Supervisor Ruggiero asked for questions and comments from the Board. Councilwoman McCarthy asked if the Town was still within budget. Jay Paggi, Engineer to the Town, provided totals that were up-to-date as of the last Friday. At the Mansion, the total is $430,000. That project is complete. The total for the Carriage House is $191,000. Councilman Bettina stated that he has repeatedly asked Mr. Paggi for a total cost analysis. Supervisor Ruggiero replied that that is a question that needs to be directed to the Comptroller and the Comptroller is currently working on that. He went on to list the projects that the Board has approved for Carnwath and the monetary amounts attached to each. Councilman Paoloni pointed out that many of those expenditures did not relate to the Mansion or the Carriage House. Discussion followed. Councilman Beale asked when the Dutchess County Sports Museum will be open again. Supervisor Ruggiero replied that they would be able to conduct business as usual by the end of the month. Councilman Beale then asked what the next phase for the Mansion and Carriage House would be. Supervisor Ruggiero explained that the Board would next need to address the roof project for the Mansion. Councilman Beale asked what the action of the Board would be if the total cost of the emergency work fell well below the original $4,000,000 that was set aside. Supervisor Ruggiero answered that only $600,000 of the $4,000,000 has been drawn down. If the rest is not drawn down, the Town would rescind the remainder. With no further comments or questions, the discussion was closed at 8:26 PM. Town of Wappinger Page 2 Printed 5/8/2007 rl� Regular Meeting Minutes April 23, 2007 C. Highway Capital Needs - Graham Foster Supervisor Ruggiero opened the discussion at 8:27 PM. Town Highway Superintendent, Graham Foster, explained that he is looking for permission to go out to bid for the equipment listed in his memo. He has provided the Town with a five-year plan back in 2006. He went on to explain the items that were in question and what he was requesting. Supervisor Ruggiero asked to clarify that Mr. Foster is looking to replace the Sweeper, Backhoe and International Truck #8. Mr. Foster confirmed. At the request of the Supervisor, Mr. Foster explained some of the figures listed in the memo. Supervisor Ruggiero asked if these items were available on state bid. Mr. Foster explained that almost 100% of his trucks are International. This allows him to stockpile many of the parts needed for maintenance. If different lines of equipment were purchased, he would need to maintain a supply of parts for many different pieces of equipment. Supervisor Ruggiero asked that Mr. Foster check the State Comptroller website to see if the items are on there and provide quotes so that the Board could make a decision. Councilman Beale described a situation that he recently responded to, during the Nor'easter, which required certain sections of Route 9D be pumped. He asked if the Town is itemizing potential storm expenses. Supervisor Ruggiero replied that Mike Tremper, of CAMO Pollution Control, and Mr. Foster are compiling a report of the storm damage. Discussion followed. Councilman Paoloni asked if this would be added to the list of the residents' damages. He pointed out that he has already been in contact with a resident of Joan Lane, but should notify the other residents in that area of the process that they should be following to report their claims. Councilman Beale recommended sending out a press release instructing the residents how to report their damage claims. Councilman Bettina added that a letter should go out to all residents because some people don't follow the news. Supervisor Ruggiero replied that his office is maintaining a total list of addresses and names of residents that have called in to report storm damage. Councilman Paoloni asked what is going to happen if residents didn't know that they were supposed to call in to the Town to be added to a list. Supervisor Ruggiero answered that he has declared certain areas disaster areas and the Governor declared the entire County a disaster area. Therefore, those residents are covered. Councilwoman McCarthy asked a question about Mr. Foster's five-year plan and how the truck in question could have suddenly gone into disrepair. Mr. Foster replied that it was a 1990 truck and that rust is the biggest problem that he faces concerning his equipment. Discussion followed. Supervisor Ruggiero closed the discussion at 8:36 PM. D. Amending Section 240-21 E Swimming Pool Code Local Law - At Roberts Supervisor Ruggiero opened the discussion at 8:37 PM. Al Roberts, Attorney to the Town, explained the issue. Last year, Councilman Paoloni pointed out that there was a discrepancy between the Town's Building Code and the swimming pool fence requirements. After discussion with George Kolb, Director of Code Enforcement, his office redrafted the section of the Code, Section 240-21 (e), to make requirements for pool fence construction consistent with the requirements set in the New York State Uniform Code. Supervisor Ruggiero explained that the Town requirement is stricter than the State requirement. This Local Law will address the issue. The discussion was then closed at 8:38 PM. E. Municipal Stormwater Management (MS4) Local Law - Jay Paggi, David Stolman, At Roberts Supervisor Ruggiero opened the discussion at 8:39 PM. Jim Horan, Attorney to the Town, was present to address the Board regarding the requirements that the Town needs to abide by as a participating Municipal Separate Stormwater Sewage System (MS4) municipality. Mr. Horan first gave the Board a brief background and history including what an MS4 is and what is included in a Stormwater Management System. He then discussed the Clean Water Act and how it affects the Town. Next, Mr. Horan described the MS4 Management Program Local Law. Jay Paggi, Engineer to the Town, added that the Town is now in its fourth year as an MS4. The Town had five years to accomplish its goals. The largest remaining goal before the Town is to enact an ordinance such as the one which was just described by Mr. Horan. Discussion followed. Councilman Beale asked what would happen when a resident has to pump out his basement and the water is pumped out into the storm drain. Mt. Horan explained that there are certain exemptions regarding the list of illicit discharges. Mr. Paggi helped explain what would be and what wouldn't be considered an illicit discharge. David Stolman, Town Planner, asked the Board to refer to section 213-17 (b), which is the section that lists exemptions. Discussion followed. Mr. Horan then mentioned that the legislation is administered by a Stormwater Management Officer. The Local Law names the Code Enforcement Officer as the Stormwater Management Officer. Town of Wappinger Page 3 Printed 5/8/2007 Regular Meeting Minutes April 23, 2007 Mr. Foster asked if the emptying of a chlorinated pool at the end of the warm season would be considered exempt. Mr. Horan replied that non -chlorinated water is exempt but chlorinated water is not. Discussion about the dissipation of the chlorine level followed. Mr. Paggi explained that the owner would need to let the chlorine level to go down before the water was discharged. Supervisor Ruggiero pointed out that the Town needs to conduct an education program for the Town residents. The Town is trying to obtain a pamphlet from the County that it could then distribute to the residents and post on the web. Mr. Horan explained that, since this was a land -use ordinance that could affect adjacent municipalities, the Town needs to refer the Local Law to the County as a part of the adoption process. Mr. Paggi added that every adjacent municipality is also an MS4 municipality. Some municipalities in the County are not participating in the MS4 program, but all adjacent municipalities are. Councilman Paoloni asked if there are fines involved if the Town did not act sooner than later. Mr. Paggi replied that there would be. Councilman Bettina recommended that the Town host an educational seminar as it did with building permits. With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Ruggiero closed the discussion at 9:01 PM.

VII. New Business 1. Councilman Beale New Business Councilman Beale asked what the status of the Tow Truck Law was. He notified the Board that there was an incident recently at the intersection of Route 9 and Smithtown Road, during which a vehicle was left in the center of the median. Supervisor Ruggiero stated that he would put it on the next Board Meeting's agenda for discussion. Councilman Beale next discussed the issue of having an Ambulance Law drawn up to prevent outside ambulance services from responding within the Town of Wappinger's ambulance district without being called. Al Roberts, Attorney to the Town, responded that he has something prepared that he could bring in for the next Board Meeting. 2. Councilman Bettina New Business Councilman Bettina received a call from a representative from the Department of Veteran's Affairs during which they discussed possible Public Hearings relating to the use of the properties at Castle Point. He is working with Supervisor Pagones, the Town Supervisor for the Town of Fishkill, and hopes that there can be some sort of joint workshop between the two T Town of Wappinger Page 12 Printed 5/8/2007 �J Regular Meeting Minutes April 23, 2007 towns. Supervisor Ruggiero asked what the VA was planning on doing with the property. Councilman Bettina described some of the rehabilitation and recreation programs, as they were explained to him by the VA. 3. Councilman Paoloni New Business Councilman Paoloni asked a question that was directed towards Jay Paggi, Engineer to the Town, and Graham Foster, Town Highway Superintendent, about a water issue at the Viggiano property on Kent Road. He asked if Mr. Paggi and Mr. Foster could provide a summary of what was happening at that location. Mr. Foster and Mr. Paggi replied that they have been out there a number of times over the years. An engineer that was hired by the homeowner to draw up plans to build a curtain drain around the property called Mr. Paggi and asked if he needed a permit to perform that work. Mr. Paggi explained that he would need a grading permit under the Town's ordinance. That was approximately two weeks ago. Supervisor Ruggiero asked if this was part of the Kent Road Realignment Project. Mr. Paggi explained that it had nothing to do with realigning Kent Road with Cider Mill Loop. Moving the roadway north would change the grade on her driveway and remove a portion of this runoff issue. Councilman Paoloni asked what the action would be. Councilman Paoloni and Councilman Bettina both asked if Mr. Paggi and Mr. Foster would go back out to see that property and report back to the Board. Mr. Foster explained that he wasn't sure where the water was coming from. Mrs. Viggiano wasn't complaining about water that was discharging on top of the ground - she thought this was from water that was discharging underground. He went on to say that the homeowner thought this might be from the water line up Cider Mill Loop. Councilwoman McCarthy asked if Mr. Paggi and Mr. Foster were sure that this was not from a pipe. Both Mr. Paggi and Mr. Foster replied that it was not. Mr. Paggi added that CAMO has stated numerous times that it was not from a pipe. Supervisor Ruggiero pointed out that the resident has mentioned money being set aside to address this issue. Councilman Paoloni confirmed that the resident mentioned this to him as well. Mr. Foster and Mr. Roberts explained that there was money set aside for Jimmy Klein to put a turning lane up on All Angels and Kent Road, but there was never any money set aside for a pipe. Mr. Paggi added that the realignment of the roadway was the project, but it never went any further because there was a right-of-way issue. Mr. Roberts, Attorney to the Town, commented that the developer gave approximately $15,000 for the project. Supervisor Ruggiero asked how long ago this was. Mr. Foster replied that it was in the 1990's. Mr. Foster gave a brief background about the turning lane project and where it was abandoned. Councilman Paoloni asked to clarify that there was no money set aside for this specific property owner. Supervisor Ruggiero clarified that there is no money set aside for anything earmarked for Kent Road. Discussion followed. Mr. Paggi commented that he would look into the issue and report back to the Board. Councilman Paoloni then brought up an issue regarding the water tank at the top of Cider Mill Loop. He asked that Mr. Paggi get back to him on this issue as well. Mr. Paggi replied that he knew which issue Councilman Paoloni was referring to and that he would get back to him with a report. 4. Councilman Bettina follow-up Councilman Bettina asked for an update concerning the DEC permits for the Vilardi property. George Kolb, Director of Code Enforcement, explained the current status of the situation. Councilman Bettina pointed out that nothing has been done,'the residents of his ward are upset and he is unable to answer their questions. He asked Mr. Kolb to provide him with a report. VIII.
