Motion Unanimously Carried
The following memo was received:
Memo to: Town Board
From: Joseph E. Ludewig, Building Inspector & Zoning Administrator
Date: October 2, 1969
Item #1: The Oakwood Knolls Pump House is in need of repairs,
and work should be done before cold weather sets in; otherwise,
damage to equipment may occur.
Since July of this year, I have tried to get contractors
to give us estimates on doing the needed work, but up to this
time have received only one bid.
Town Attorney Rappleyea has advised that this work can
be authorized by Town Board resolution, even though the job has
not been advertised. I should like your authorization to enable
me to hire LaDue Builders to do the job for a sum not to exceed
$1, 600.
Item #2: Mrs. Laffin has called to my attention that we have
exceeded our budget allowance for additional office help. The
reason for the need for extra help was that we have had far
more activity during this year than was anticipated when the
budget was prepared.
We had as anticipated income in 1969, $6,000. We
have to the end of September taken in, for Building Permit Fees
alone, $12,339.00. Can the Board transfer $2,000 from the
surplus income to Compensation of Employees account?
s/ Joseph E. Ludewig
MR. HEADY moved to authorize Mr. Ludewig to have work done in
Oakwood for a sum not to exceed $1,600, seconded by Mr. Clausen.
Motion Unanimously Carried
The following Resolution was offered by MR. CLAUSEN who moved
its adoption:
Resolution Transferring Funds From
Surplus of Building Inspector Fees
to Planning Board -Compensation of
Employees
Be it Resolved that the sum of $2,000, surplus funds from
the Building Inspector Fees transferred from account entitled
"Building Inspector's Fees" to account entitled "Planning
Board - Compensation of Employees."

Resolution Duly Adopted
The Town Clerk read the following letter from Rev. MacGill of
the Zion Episcopal Church:
Oct. 1, 1969
Dear Louis:
This is an emergency request for your personal support to
enable Dr. Stephen S. Chan to remain in this community.
Dr. Chan has been associated with Doctors Brannan, Golding
and Ballard for the last year in the Wappingers Medical
Group.
A native of Hong Kong, Dr. Chan holds the.M.D. degree from
Albany Medical College and has completed all necessary
training for the practice of pediatrics. He is a diplomate
44 f0'
of the National Board of Medical Examiners. This means he is
eligible for a license to practice in any state. BUT HE CANNOT
BET A LICENSE BECAUSE HE IS NOT A U.S. CITIZEN: Immigration
authorities are no help. He faces ultimate deportation unless
the U.S. State Department changes his status.
Congressman Fish has championed Dr. Chan's cause. He has arranged
a hearing in Washington this month. If this hearing is favorable,
we feel confident this fine young doctor can remain here, receive
his license and continue the life-saving work for which he has
been trained.
I propose to attend that hearing personally, and take with me
letters from community leaders like yourself, stressing the
essential need we have for Dr. Chan here. The shortage of
medical doctors in Wappingers is critical. The population
has doubled in ten years, yet we have 40 per cent fewer
doctors to reat twice as many people. Dr. Chan wants to
remain here and the Wappingers Medical Group wants him to
stay. Children's lives are literally at stake.
You can help by writing to me promptly, by October 10, in
support of Dr. Chan. I pray you will do so.
s/ Robert A. MacGill
RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA TO
GRANT TO DR. STEPHEN S. CHAN
THE RIGHT TO BECOME A UNITED
STATES CITIZEN.
The following resolution was offered by COUNCILMAN HEADY
who moved its adoption:
WHEREAS, there is a critical shortage of Medical Doctors
in the Town of Wappinger and
WHEREAS, Dr. Stephen S. Chan is duly qualified to apply
for and hold a license to practice in the State of New York and
WHEREAS, it would be beneficial to the residents of the
Town of Wappinger if Dr. Stephen S. Chan were permitted to
remain in the Town of Wappinger where he could practice medicine.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the
Town of Wappinger hereby requests the United States of America
to grant to Dr. Stephen S. Chan the right to become a United
States citizen and be it further
RESOLVED that a copy of this resolution be forwarded by
the Town Clerk to Congressman Hamilton Fish and United States
Senators Javits and Goodell.
