5. Letters from Mr. Chanjn and Mr. Carlisto, two of the engineers
interviewed for position of Engineer to the Town. Mr. Chanjn acknowledged
his interview with members of the Town Board and expressed a desire for
a favorable reply. Mr. Carlisto went into detail about hourly rates and
monthly rates for specific services relating to forming a consulting
engineering service including a staff of technicians, construction
inspector, draftsmen etc. Mr. Fulton noted 4 engineers had been
interviewed and the Board would make a determination in the near future.
6. Letter from Mrs. Robert Hanna in reference to "policy of
accepting money in lieu of land" from Developers for recreational purposes.
Mr. Fulton commented that it was not the policy of the Board to accept
money in lieu of land, and requested attorneys for Town contact Mid—
Point Park, Inc. and inform them it wasn't the Town Boards policy to
accept money in lieu of land and empower attorneys to negotiate for
dedication of land to the Town for recreational purposes. Motjonr
Unanimously Carried. Mr. Quinn agreed with the thought Mrs. Hanna
expressed. He seriously questioned the right of the Town.to accept a
payment of cash in lieu of dedication of land. He noted that the only
instance under the statute that money may be accepted is when it is
impractical or impossible to dedicate land.
It was requested that the Planning Board be requested to amend their
policy of accepting cash in lieu of land for Recreational purposes.
,Also, that the Recreation commission be notified of this action taken.
Mr. Clausen: Might not the Building Inspector be involved here in
relation to the amount of building already in progress and the amount
of land needed.
Mr. Quinn suggested that the matter should be pursued immediately.
7. Letter read from Friends of Grinnell Library requesting
contribution to Program Book for Harvest Ball. Legal obstacle (unbudgeted

meeting. Mr, Quinn informed the Board he had spoken with Mr. Raymond
about the revised contract, and more recently with Mr. May, both
indicating they approved of revisions and would send it out. As the
contract has not yet been forthcoming the matter was tabled until the
next meeting.

7. Request was received from the Planning Board for 3 members be granted
permission to attend. Motion was made by Mr. Clausen, seconded by Mr. Bulger
that permission be granted 3 members of the Planning Board and Mr. Ludewig,
Building Inspector to attend the conference and that payment of their
expenses be authorized. Motion Unanimously Carried.
8. Mr. Bulger requested permission to attend the New York State Magistrates
meeting at Lido Beach N.Y. Sept. 18-21. Motion was made by Mr. Diehl,
seconded by Mr. Clausen to grant permission to Mr. Bulger to attend the
meeting and authorize payment of his expenses. Motion Carrt|ed. Mr. Bulger
Abstained.
9. Mr. Diehl: l would like to bring up such things as temporary approvals
on Sewage Treatment plants. l would like to suggest a discussion between
Mr. Ludewig and the new engineer to the Town with regard to not issuing
C.O.'s until complete approval is given. l would like this to go into
the form of an investigation and go through it with Mr. Ludewig and our
new engineer, and do away with temporary approvals of all kinds.
Mr. Ludewig: There Is a valid reason for issuing temporary C.O.'s, for
instance, if a man was putting up 15 apt. buildings and had 3 completed,
the builder should be given a temporary C.O.If the grounds and landscaping
are not complete, this could hold back a C.O. There are 2 sides to the
thing. l think, however, it is a very good thing to explore.
Mr. Quinn: (referring to issuing permits on Sewer Plants) the Town has
no authority if the State or Dutchess County authorize operation of a
Sewer Plant. The Town relinquished its control quite some time og)to
the County Health Dept. This is not within the province of this Town to
regulate unless there are some undisclosed facts that would prevent them
from getting C.O.'s.
Mr. Fulton: When the County Health Dept. issues a temporary permit and
we Issue a temporary permit we're the ones who get in a box.
Mr. Quinn: It has been 2 yrs. since temporary permits have been issued
by the County. l know of nothing where temporary permits has,been issued since
Oakwood Knolls. The Town must give permission for people to occupy, if
they refuse to do so the court will compel it.
Mr. Fulton: Can the .Town enact an Ordinance more restrictive than the
QJunty Health Dept.?
Mr. Quinn: Nb Sir.
Mr. Clausen: Weren't temporary C.O.'s issued in Montclair Apts.?
Mr. Quinn: No
9.2i�:
Mr. Diehl: I thought it was temporary.
Mr. Quinn replied it was not.
Mr. Fulton: Although they issue the permits, can we pass an Ordinance that
states that occupancy cannot be had until installation is complete?
Mr. Quinn: No, you may not.
Mr. Bulger: What you are saying is that we have duties but no rights.
Mr. Quinn: I have said we have no Jurisdiction over the matter.
Mr. Bulger: You miss my point. My point was we have the right to issue
or not to issue a C.O. You are saying that if the action of the County is
not in the best interest of the Town we should go ahead and issue it
anyway.
Mr. Quinn: If you have definite facts — if the officials of the Town
think, in good faith, that the County is overlooking something, the Building
Inspector may refuse to issue the C.O. but, unless there are facts that
Justify the action the courts will compel this.
Mr. Diehl: I think, if it is possible, that we can put ourselves in a
better poyition, possibly that minimum specs can be boosted up — something
to look into.
Mr. Fulton: I learned this afternoon from Mr. Thompson, Hydraulic Engineer
of Water Resources Commission that Oakwood Knolls did not receive final
approval from water resources. Mr. Ritter shouldn't have operated it
before.the system was completed and petitioned for final approval. He
said there was corrective action that could be taken on this. I plan
to follow this up tomorrow.
Mr. Clausen: (to Mr. Fulton) you have indicated an Oakwood Knolls
investigation of sewer plant and water system, that it was being studied
and a report to be forthcoming. Have you got it?
Mr. Fulton: No, they reported in the Poughkeepsie paper that they
expected reports from the County by Aug. 31. The attorney for the
State Board of Health is working with the County Attorney.
Mr. Clausen: I think It is our intent to have an open hearing.
Mr. Fulton: This point has been brought up. I feel it should be
held locally.
Mr. Clausen: As far as the Town is concerned, an open hearing in
Wappingers has not been scheduled, we should go as far as the Governor.
I think we should set a deadline for an investigation. We should send
a telegram to the Governor asking for the Public Hearing in Wappinger.
Ellie Menshu said she had spoken with Mr. Richards and Mr. Jackson
22"
asking
w� m*w*
asklnQ why it has been taking so long. She was informed that since Aug. 1st
the Dept. has conducted 130 separate hearings throughout the State on
similar prob\emS. They are aware of it.
Mr. Clausen: { mould like to go on record to push it.
Rules suspendedon motion of Mr. Bulger, seconded by Mr. Clausen and
carried.' Mr. James Porter asked if the Town had received recognition
from anyone in the State on a petition concerning the status of Oakwood
Knolls sewer. It was sent 3 or 4 months ago and the residents never
heard anything about it. Copies were sent to Mr. Ingraham, Dr. Vassallo
and the Supervisor. Residents of Oakwood Knolls have brought up the issue
at the State and County levels.
Mr. Fulton: Nothing has been heard.
Rules resumed on motion of Mr. Clausen, seconded by Mr. Bulger and carried.
Mr. Clausen: l make a motion that this Town Board make the Governor aware
of our request, see if we can get action. l think the State should come
and investigate this on their own, we should make request for an investigation
solely by the State, seconded by Mr. Diehl. Motion Unanimously Carried.
Mr. Bulger: Now we are left with the mechanics.
Mr. Clausen: . We can get'together informally tonight after the meeting and
draft a letter.
Mr. Diehl: In reference to the Fleetwood area regarding the water supply,
it hos never been approved by the'Woter Resources Board and has been
operating Illegally. On the basis of this I nm informed that they have
no right to charge for water. l move that this Board notify Water Resources
Board of the problems that exist - poor supply, poor pressure, fragments -
and direct our attorney to investi8ole° Seconded by Mr. Clausen. Motion
Unanimously Carried.
Mr. Quinn: Final approval of the Water Resources Commission is a step .
that takes months or years after preliminary approval is given.
Mr° Fulton: In their application, the CommTsSion has stated that final
approval must be given before'the system is operated;
Mr. Quinn: What happens is this - after resources commission holds bearing
and approval of plans and installation is made under the supervision of. a
licensed engineer water may be and'990 of the' time: is, provided. I think
you are reading into the preliminary order, of the resources commission
something that isn't there. It is unthinkable that people residing in a
development could be furnished with water on a portable basis and not be
obliged to pay for it. Water Resources Commission and in some cases,
Public Service Commission, keeping touch with supplier. -I don't think
this does away with any indebtedness between the supplier and the consumer.
When the value is more than $30,000, rates are set by Public Service
Commission, under this amount there is no regulation. Any penalties
would go to the Attorney Generals Office, it would be up to them whether
any punitive action was taken.
Mr. Diehl: I would like to have the Water Resources Board notified and
establish whether they are operating illegally. Water Resources Board
of New York State should be notified of the condition that exists here,
that they are operating without approval and at the same time, should
they be charging for water when it has never been approved?
Mr. Bulger: First, find facts, second, recommend appropriate action by
appropriate authorities be taken if these are not in accordance with legal
authorities.
Mr. Diehl: Fleetwood and Tall Trees roads, I was not satisfied with the
discussion Tuesday night. He had heard summonses had not been served
and had previously questioned Mr. Quinn about reissuing them.
Mr. Fulton: It was made public that we were issuing them and maybe
the principals ducked them.:
Mr. Quinn: Explained that one of the Principals lived in Westchester
County, but the subpoena had to be served in the Town of Wappinger.
A capable Village police officer had made several attempts to serve
them and he is not obligated to keep trying. He said Mr. Worona had
contacted him and advised him that Mr. Williams was available at any
time the Board wished to have a conference with him. -
Mr. Fulton: Do you still want to re—issue the subpoenas?
Mr. Diehl: No, under the conditions discussed tonight, I hope some
groundwork has been laid, we'll see what transpires.
Mr. Clausen: Mr. Quinn's explanation has cleared up a lot of misunder—
standing.
Mr. Korol, a resident from Cedar Hill Rd. spoke at length about the
problems that exist there with the roads. Because of the new shopping
center on Rt. 52, the new IBM plant and the fact that Route 9 is being
torn up, he claims that Cedar Hill Rd. has now become a secondary road
and is in need of attention. He suggested that one bad curve be
2'24!
eliminated before any homes are erected on that particular parcel which
would make it more costly. Since the road is about 40% in Fjshkill an
engineering survey could be conducted Jointly with this town, he said.
He asked that consideration be given this road on next years budget.
Mr. Clausen: The surface of this road is good, there are many others
that require attention more. If provision is made in the budget for
surveying, this road will be surveyed. When Mr. Korol asked for caution
signs and that the brush be cut back, Mr. Clausen told him that he would
put signs up and the brush could be cut back as far as the Town owns.
Mr. Bulger: I believe that the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles is
charged with providing assistance to local governments in areas of
traffic safety and problems. It might behoove us to ask for advice and
counsel. Should we approve this back road to the point where it is
completely improved or improved by 50%, we will attract possible 100%
more traffic. I think we should call on the Commissioner of Motor
Vehicles for assistance, to analyze the problem before we end up with a
plan that brings about more problems.
Mr. Fulton: We have an extensive road program outlined already, we Just
haven't gotten it off the ground due to finances and the fact that we
have been involved in so many other things.
Mr. Diehl: Has there been any further report on Mr. Kelley's 11 year
Road Program?
Mr. Clausen: Has this Town Board ever adopted that recommendation as a
policy?
It would seem to me that we should adopt it before Budget time.
Mr. Bulger: There's one problem — we have a program that sets forth
Bonding.
Mr. Clausen: We should make a decision on how funds are going to be
raised prior to budget time.
Mr. Bulger made a motion to direct communications to the Commissioner of
Motor Vehicles asking for his opinion on the traffic problem on Cedar
Hill Road and ask his advice from a point of view of safety. Seconded
by Mr. Diehl. Motion Unanimously Carried.
Mr. Cortel1ino: 1. On what date will the roads in Wildwood be accepted
or the road bonds be called? Road bond ran out in March of 1966.
Mr. Clausen: Mr. Cortel1ino should present all questions to the Board, and
we, as a Board, will give him answers.
Mr. Cortelljno: 2. Beth Place has not been graded, has not been paved.
I predict that there will be a road through lot #3 before Beth Place is
ever built. Zoned residential — single family. 3. Street signs — we have
225
two signs at the entrance advertising Wildwood Manor. No Street signs.
Mr. Bulger, is it true we had a fire on Dana Place and some individuals did
not know where it is?
Mr. Bulger: Yes.
Mr. Clausen:
It is up to Mr. Lafko to put in signs on every road.
Mr. Diehl: Is it not true that there are supposed to be temporary signs?
In that case, he is'supposed to put up signs.
Suspend rules, motion made by Mr. Clausen, seconded by Mr. Bulger.
Mr. Sevenson queried who had torn down his monuments, and torn down his
stone wall.
Motion to resume rules made by Mr. Bulger, seconded by Mr. Clausen.
Mr. Clausen: Mr. Cortellino may present all of his questions - but we,
as a Board are not prepared to answer them all at this time.
Mr. Kelley was asked to be prepared to answer at the next Regular meeting
on the Road Bond.
Mr. Sucich: Referring to Montclair Apts. on 9D - since they have started
construction I notice that the sewage treatment plant has been moved to
several hundred feet from the spot originally shown on plan to the Board
Right of way has been raised 5 or 6 feet above level. They put a sewer
line into drainage ditch which was kept up by me and Mr. Harsborg. There
was another ditch through my property which was draining possibly 6 parcels
and
of land/they Just buried that. They just tore up the culvert pipe. My
leaching field has not been working sufficiently after that. 10yy t'iouse will
be surrounded by water, even though they raised the right of way. I went
to the Board of Health and asked if they approved new location of sewer
lines. A new plan came up approved by the Town Board to move the sewage
disposal plants and lines. We were not notified. My tenants want to
move out.
Mr. Ludewig: Mr. Sucich came in to us and we wrote a letter to the owners
of the apartment protect. We asked them to write us and assure us it is
in accordance with the plan. We have not heard from them as yet.
Mr. Diehl: Has the principal a legal right to move a sewer plant
without public hearing, etc..
Mr. Quinn: Mr. Sucich stated that he found that the Town Board approved the
relocation. I think he is referring to the Planning Board. What zone?
Mr. Ludewig: R-20
Mr. Quinn: Public hearing required?
Mr. Ludewig: Yes
Mr. Kelley: There was the original sewer plant shown located on the site
which was approved. That sewer plant was abandoned and plans were redrawn.
The second approval showed the plant to be on the same site as the original.
Effectively, the second approval did not show a relocated sewer plant —
certainly nothing like what Mr. Sucich is talking about. I asked their
engineer if he had moved sewer plant and he said no, although it Mad
been staked out by another surveyor.
Tenant: Open man—holes. My son plays near there and raw sewerage runs
through there.
Mr. Bulger: Ask Mr. Ludewig to check on these open ditches and man—holes
and attempt to have them covered as soon as possible.
Mr. Sucich: On my deed Mr. Shook deeded me a 50 ft. right of way. Then
these people dug through that right—of—way without my permission, — is
that legal?
Mr. Bulger: It is not legal, but it is not within the jurisdiction of
this Board to help you. We would suggest you retain an attorney.
Problems on open manholes, sewer plant and open ditch were referred to
Mr. Ludewig and Mr. Kelley for report.
Letter from Arthur Bisom requesting considering amending Section 416.032
of the Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Bisom came before the Board and explained
that the Building stands on about a half acre of land. I am stymied
for additional business because I don't have adequate facilities. I
would suggest that you give my application consideration for enlargement.
Mr. Fulton: We have a contract under negotiations with Raymond & May
Planning Consultants and I am sure there will be many changes.
Mr. Bisom: How long do you think it will take to get an answer? I
have been waiting for at least 2 or 3 years.
Mr. Fulton: We're trying to move very fast. We have rezoning on Route
9 to consider. I don't think it is the intention of the Board to do the
whole town at once. I think there will be areas that will be done quickly.
Mr. Bisom: The Board of Health gave me violation notice. I have to have
two bathrooms. If I don't break out I have to close up.
Rockingham Sewer District Operator — The two bids received were from
Fred Lafko and Environmental Control Corporation.
Mr. Fulton: We have considered tabling this tonight, several points are
left to be discussed on it. We will take action in the future on it.
Motion was made by Mr. Clausen, seconded by Mr. Bulger to suspend rules.
227
Ben Strosky, referring to Oakwood Knolls: I operated it for awhile and had
no problems, but take Summit Gardens, there is a terrible stench up there.
Mr. Diehl:
Ken Euell:
Summit Gardens & Oakwood Knolls? I don't get the point.
We operate Summit Gardens plant at this time, let the record
show that Hall & Co. is renovating and has abandoned the plant twice.
We are calling them every day. Nothing is being done. The plant is in
half existence at this time. As far as effluent entering stream, there
is no affect.
Mr. Fulton: Are you a licensed operator?
Mr. Euell: Yes.
Mr. Diehl: On the basis of what I have heard, I dont know whether it is
the fault of the operator or the plant. Set up meeting with the two
operators and come to a decision soon.
Mr. Clausen: Do you feel it operated to the best of conditions? Did
you get full cooperation?
Ben Strosky: When I took over there was a stench there and I cleared it
up within a month.
Mr. Euell:
Check with the Dutchess County Health Department if these are
in question. I am sure our record shows in the Health Dept. what we
have done. Presently operating 6 plants and fi ave 11 under contract.
We have 2 licensed operators, another attending school. We are very
efficient operators.
Mr. Worona: Letter received from the New York State Dept. of Health
concerning expansion of the plant. Letter has to be sent by the engineer
before we can get our plans back. I understand the engineer has to submit
a letter concerning the expansion of the plant.
Mr. Quinn: Letter came in on Wednesday. Immediately took it to Mr.
Kelley of the IChazen firm. Mr. Kelley has conferred with Mr. Harrison
today. As a result of this conference, they want a timetable. They want
a schedule. We will prepare a resolution for the next meeting. That will
relieve any bottleneck that may exist.
Motion made by Mr. Bulger, seconded by Mr. Clausen to resume rules.
Motion made by Mr. Diehl, that the County Health Department be asked to
check into conditions at Summit Gardens and notify both bidders and give
specific date to come in for interview for questions that are in our minds,
seconded by Mr. Clausen. Motion Unanimously Carried.
Mr. Fulton: Special meeting on Tuesday or Wednesday, this will be on that
matter.
