RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES
APRIL 16, 1992
NEXT MEETING MAY 21, 1992
The regular meeting of the Town of Wappinger Recreation Commission
was held April 16, 1992 at Schlathaus Park, All Angels Hill Road, Town of Wappinger,
Dutchess County, New York.
The meeting was called to order at 7:30 P.M. by Chairman Ralph J.
Holt. Others present were Senior Citizen Director Kathi Delisa, Recreation
Director Bernie Reimer, Commission Members Terry Fisher, Hugh J. Maurer, Joseph
Mastroianni, Stephen Miller and Maintenance Director John Vorndran.
Because the minutes for the March meeting were distributed so
late, a motion was made by Mr. Maurer seconded by Mr. Mastroianni to hold them
until the May meeting to be approved.
CORRESPONDENCE
A letter was received from Pete~ Kennedy of the Wappinger United
Soccer Club enclosing a partial list of items to be purchased with the funds
received from the Town. Also included with the letter was a copy of the proposed
soccer agreement between the soccer club and the Town. The list of items purchased
is $838.00 above the contract amount and therefore it is necessary for the soccer
club to delete items totaling that amount from the list. Since the goals are
inventory items, Mr. Rider will be asked to set up an inventory. All other items
are expense items. Mr. Holt mentioned that the contract seems to be the same as
last years but there were several ~. which were addressed as follows:
1. In Section 3 - It mentioned that the Town'~hall provide adequate
facilities in su~port etc. .... including, soccer fields, with goal posts and nets,
corner flags, balls, rest rooms, equipment facilities all as they presently exist, as
they may be provided and as they may be improved. This also includes the continuation
of repairs, maintenance, grass mowing, custodial services and weekly lining of the
fields." The Commission felt that the following items should be omitted from this
section:
a. Goal posts and nets, corner flags, balls since we do not
purchase these items for them.
b. Equipment storage facilities - since we do not provide this
c. Weekly lining of fields - We only provide the chalk dust not
do the actual field lining.
2. Section 5 Should be omitted since we have a problem glvlng
them our equipment since it would probably be on a weekend when our maintenance
people would not be working.
3. Section 10. Should include the amount of $3,000.

We received a letter from Joseph F. Heavey for Ronald F. Lipp,
Medical Center Director, Department of Veterans Affairs at Castle Point. He noted
in his letter that after hearing the intentions of the Town and seeing the dramatic
improvements at the Park, that The Castle Point V. A. Medical Center is ready to
support the Town in creating an ~~. pleasing riverside park. They will
allow the Town Recreation to clear the adjoining Medical Center riverside property.
A notice was received from the ~ay Heritage Conservancy for
the Hudson River Valley with an invitation to submit a proposal for a grant under the
Hoffman Community Awards Program. Mr. Holt will work on this proposal.
A request was received from Rob Valdez of the N.Y. S. P. of Fishkill
requesting the use of the Quiet Acres Field on Tuesdays and Thursdays until approximately
August 13, 1992 for a Law Enforcement Slow Pitch Softball League. He also requested
permission to be able to drive down and park inside the Park. A discussion took
place regarding this ---who would lock and unlock and where they should park.
It was decided to put a regular lock on the gate and have them responsible to lock
and unlock it. Mr. Holt and Mr. Vorndran will go down to decide on a possible
parking area.
Mr. Holt mentioned that on April 9th, 2 young boys were attempting
to remove the basketball hoop at Quiet Acres when the backboard and rim fell. One
of the boys was hurt and was taken to the hospital for stitches. Detective Carl
Amburgy called us on April 10th and mentioned that he had notified juvenile division
that we wanted charges pressed. He said that they would be charged with the
following: 1. trespassing, 2. criminal mischief, 3. attempted larceny, 4, possession
of burglar tools.
Letters were received from Gary Mensching listing the names of the
contractors who will be installing the improvements at the concession at Robinson
Lane.- General Contractor Colonial Builders - Sub-Contractors Mid Hudson Valley
Propane and Tony Lucarriello. A letter was also received listing the improvements
which are in excess of $11,000.
A letter was received from Dutchess Sports Center Grand Slam U.S.A.
requesting use of our fields at Robinson Lane Complex for a summer instructional
program for area boys and girls. The program would be conducted from 9 a.m. to
1 p.m. on Tuesday, July 7 to Friday, July 10th. After a discussion, it was
decided to give approval for this but they would not be allowed to use the tournament
fields. It was also decided that the Town should receive some compensation and it
was decided that a fee amendment be sent into the Town Board suggesting a fee of
$50.00 per day for anyone running a summer camp.
A letter was received from Sloper-Willen to confirm that Paul
Martire, E.M.T.-P will accept the position of Health Director for the 1992 Summer
Program.

April 16, 1992
A quote was received from Miracle Recreation for the new slide
for Spook Hill and for 2 new steel tables. Mrs. Roe will have to call him and
clarify the quotes as we requested a quote on the slidfl, 1 table and 2 bleacher
forms. This approval had been submitted to the Town Board for their March 22nd
meeting and approval was given for these purchases. We need to get the slide
installed before the summer playground starts.
We received a copy of the Certificate of Insurance from the Sunday
Morning Softball league with the Town of Wappinger as additional insured.
SENIOR CITIZEN REPORT
Mrs. Oelisa distributed a report on the Senior Center for the
month of March which is attached to these minutes. She also noted the following:
1. The Seniors held a St. Patrick's Day party on the 17th with
a cake and each Senior receiving a green carnation. It snowed that day so it kept
many Seniors at home.
2. The Community Service worker provided by the Office of the Aging
on the 2nd Thursday of each month has worked out well so far.
3. Rose Mulato continued with her volunteer field experience
for college with games such as "Price is Right" and ring toss game. This has been
a real help to the center and Mrs. Delisa is looking forward to having other
volunteers from college for this program in the Fall.
4. On March 18th there was a small incident which set off the
fire alarm. Fortunately, no harm was done but the incident gave Mr. Delisa the
opportunity to explain safety rules and procedures to the Seniors.
5. A letter has been received from Fire Inspector Mark Liebermann
regarding the occupancy limit for the Town Hall Senior Center. The occupancy
limit is 40 persons. letter is attached to her report.
6. April events include: Easter luncheon at Gino's, Easter Egg
Hunt, financial seminar conducted by Vic Fanuele and a program on health care issues
by Dr. Donald Berman.
7. Someone came in and mentioned that the YWCA was trying to purchase
the "Castle" and that they were looking for tenants. They thought that this might
help with our space situation. We felt that at this time, this would not be an
option but we will keep it in mind.

DIRECTOR'S REPORT
Mr. Reimer mentioned that the crowd for the Magic Show was a little
disappointing but a decent crowd. He noted that there were many conflicts with
atiET events at the schools i.e. science fair, play at John Jay etc. Although
the crowd wasn't as big as expected, the show was excellent. He was not able to
obtain a concession for that night and it probably worked out for the best.
Mr. Reimer and Miss Slacin have met to go over the applications for
the Summer Program and he is now in the process of calling the individuals. The
six directors must be certified in First Aid and C.P.R. The C.P.R has to be done
yearly. He mentioned that he thought the cost would be $400. and if that was the
case to have our whole group certified. It was also suggested that he contact
Sloper and the New Hackensack Fire Company to see if they could do it at a lesser
charge.
There was a Board of Health Department meeting today to go over
general health problems like lyme disease, rabies etc. Miss Slacin attended this
meeting.
Summer programs are being set up. We are doing much less with bus
transportation this year. We are not planning to go to the Catskill Game Farm etc.
as we will be putting more emphasis on in camp activities.
There was a discussion ~rrg. registration - where it will be
held etc. because of the collection of fees this year. It was decided that we
ask Supervisor Smith to have registration at Town Hall on Saturday, June 20th
from 9:00 to 3:00 with another on the 25th (opening day of camps.) Registration
(or money) will not be handled by the playground ~aTEl but by Mr. Holt, Mr.
Reimer and other Commission Personnel.
Mr. Reimer brought in a sample of sand which should be placed in
the volleyball courts. The samd comes from Long Island and is screened down to
1/8th inch maximum. He said that Mr. Leczinski estimated that we would need
approximately 130 tons to do the 3 courts with'a 6": base. Mr. Leczinski also told
him that we could order directly and get it at cost or $12.00 a ton.
CASTLE POINT
Mr. Holt mentioned that 50 ton of infield mix has been ordered for
Castle Point Field and that it will be delivered on Wednesday. He said that the
Wappinger Modified League mentioned that if we do one field that they will do the
other.

ROBINSON LANE
Mr. Miller asked whether the dumpsters were ordered and was told
that the regular service would be starting April 17th. The extra dumpster for
opening day will be delivered on April 24th. The fountains are on and fence
repairs are being made. He asked about heat in the restrooms and was told that
we were looking into this. We have one quote of $700. from the person who installed
the heat in the main building. The plumbing work is done and the hand dryers are
scheduled to be installed on Monday the 20th. Opening day is the 25th at 9:00.
Mr. Holt asked Mr. Miller about the truck bodies. It was our
understanding that when Little League built the new building last year that they
would remove the truck bodies. Mr. Holt asked Mr. Miller to check on this.
It was also brought up that we should have keys to the building.
Mrs. Roe mentioned that she has a key to the storage section.
Mr. Fisher made mention that the adjoining property is a mess with
old cars, refrigerators, etc. being dumped there. There are a number of old
barrels in the back next to the fence between the two properties. Mr. Levenson
will be told about this to see if he could check it out and see if the site could
be cleaned up.
CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
Mr. Holt noted the following:
1. He attended a Town Board workshop meeting where Mr. Bill Parsons
presented a proposal to put a World War II War Memorial at Schlathaus Park. Mr.
Parsons said that the monument will depict a World War II Soldier in battle gear.
The base of the statue will be approximately 5 ft. high of granite. The actual
statue will be approximately 6 ft tall in bronze. Mr. Holt mentioned that the
signs for the Park will have to be moved along with the flag pole and the tree will
have to be removed.
2. The water line has been installed at Rockingham.
3. He had a meeting at Schlathaus at 6:30 to discuss the stone
and dedication. Letters will be written to families of those whose names will
appear on the stone. The Friends of Jason Smith will donate the stone to the Town.
Supervisor Smith will accept on behalf of the Town and then Mr. Holt will read
something about each person honored. This is the stone which is placed by the
flag pole at Robinson and the dedication will take place at the Opening Day
Ceremonies.

Sheafe Road School. Sessions are from 1 to 2 and 2 to 3. Registration will be

6. Mr. Holt recently met with Mr. Scofield of Fishkill to discuss
work to be done on the soccer fields. Mr. Holt noted that the soccer club has
mentioned that the field is 20 yds short and short some in the width. Mr. Scofield
has agreed to fill and roll the field. He also mentioned that he will install a
couple of bleachers. We have agreed to fertilize the field this year.

seconded by Mr. Fisher.

positive response to this new servioe. The Heart
Association provided the monthly blood pressure soreening on

We oelebrated St. Paddy's Day on the 17th with a oake and

ITEMS TO BE NOTED:
1. On Wed. Maroh 18, one of our seniors plaoed a plastio
tray.on a hot burner on the stove. The smoke set off the
fire alarm. Fortunately, no harm was done and we were able
to notify the fire department before they all arrived at the
the Town Hall. This incident gave me the opportunity to
explain safety rules and prooedures to all of the Seniors.
These rules,to my knowledge, had never been explained or
"
reviewed. I will be reviewing these rules and procedures
with the seniors on a regular basis to ensure that as many
as possible will be aware of their responsibilities in case
of emergency.
2. The occupancy limit of the Senior Citizen room has been
determined (copy of notice attached). The occupanoy limit

4. I have met with Marie VanVoorhis from Dutchess Community
College. Ms. VanVoorhis is counselor and advisor to the
recreation program at the College. She would like to
continue sending students to the Center for field
experience. We hope to continue this program in the fall.
ITEMS TO BE DISCUSSED:
1. It has been brought to my attention that the YWCA will
be purchasing the Castle in Wappinger and are looking for
tenants to help them finanoially. . The contact person is
Maureen Lashley. It was suggested that our need for space
and their financial need could help one another. As this is
a Town Board issue, I said I would bring it to the attention
of the Recreation Commission for disoussion.

RE: OCCUPANCY LIMIT OF TOWN HALL SR. CENTER.
Dear Ka thi ,
In reference to the amount of people allowed to occupy the Sr.Citizen Center
at anyone time the following conforms to the requirements of the New York
State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building'Code,which is enforced in the
Town of Wappinger.
Pursuant to 1765 Table VII-765 of 9(B) NYCRR,the Center is classified as a
C5 occupancy.containing no fixed seating. The total floor area to be used for
occupancy is 600 square feet. This occupancy type is pennitted to have 15 people
per square feet,based upon the net floor area which is the 'actual square footage
of the assembly space,not including space used to store cabinets, television etc.
The occupancy limit is computed by dividing 15 people per sq. ft. into 600 square
feet(30'x20') which gives you an occupancy limit of 4 0 persons~
Also attached is the occupancy limit sign that is required to be posted pursuant
to 11162.2 of 9(B) NYCRR.

partioipate to find out. Please note the Center will be
olosed on Good Friday, April 17. A happy andjoyou~ Easter
to all of you. ' . ,
If you have not reoeived your 1.0. oard, pleas~ see me.
You will need this oard for any of the Town sponsored trips
and as a member of the Senior Center. Proot ot residenoy in,
the Town of Wappinger must be shown suoh as your tax bill,
sooial seourity oheok, driver's lioense or:non-driver's'
lioense 1.0. A list of the upooming trips is now available.
Remember there is now a suggestion box by the sign-in
sheet. Your suggestions are most weloome as well as any
oomplaints. Please feel free to give suggestions for new
programs, videos, parties and other oelebrations, luncheons,
leotures, games, crafts, improvements or anything else you
would like to add to the Center aotivities. Suggestions may
be anonymous if you ohoose. All suggestions and oomplaints
will be seriously oonsidered. I oannot promise that aotion
will be taken on all, but I do promise to do my best for
you.
We now have a miorowave. If you use it, you are
responsible to leave it olean. Name tags are ordered and we
will have them any day. There is a sussestionfor a fashion
show. I have been working on this idea and will continue to
do so. The Malls and stores I have oontaote~ are not '
willing to oome to the Center. However, I am 'still trying.
I weloome any suggestions or help on where or who to oa11
about this. There is also a suggestion that we have soup
and sandwiohes at the Center. This is not possible at this
time. We do not have the faoilities 'to make this Center a
Senior "soup and sandwioh" oenter. If at another time this
beoomes possible, this suggestion will be forwarded to the
appropriate people. Keep those suggestion oomins so loan
plan aotivitiesthat YOU want. Remember this is YOUR
CENTER! ! ! !
A VERY HAPPY EASTER AND A BIG HUG TO ALL OF YOU.
