A. Town Water Facilities Update - Bob Gray, Mike Tremper
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 8:14 PM. Bob Gray, Town Engineer, and
Mike Tremper, of CAMO Pollution Control, were present to give the update. Bob Gray began
with a discussion regarding the Atlas Water and the Hill Top Water systems. The intent was to
discuss a feasibility study to implement filtration at the systems. This was due to the proximity
of the Atlas system to the Wappinger Creek and the Hill Top system to Sprout Creek.
Mike Tremper followed by giving a brief history of the two well systems. He stated that
the Town may be better off looking into filtration at these two well fields as opposed to
continuing with the monitoring and reporting. The Town Board needs to know the various fees
and capital costs in order to make the decision. The water is completely safe and the Town is in
full compliance with Part 5 New York State Sanitary Code. Discussion about filtration followed.
Mr. Gray then discussed a feasibility study for the Robinson Lane Recreation Area.
Robinson Lane is a center for recreation that a lot of people use and the water system does not
comply with today's standards. Councilwoman McCarthy asked for clarification. Mr. Tremper
explained that the system has been an add-on after an add- on since it was built. The water is in
compliance but there are potential hazards as the chlorine detention facilities are not proper. The
wells are along the same aquifer as the Hill Top well fields. They are smaller wells with the
same concerns. There were similar concerns thirteen years ago. The previous Town Engineer
did an analysis of the water system at Robinson Lane and recommended repairs to bring it into
compliance with the codes. Right now, the Town is out of compliance in a lot of different areas.
The Health Department is not putting any mandates on the Town and they inspect it every year,
but there is food service, irrigation, and wells that require testing. If the Town wants to have the
recreation center up to the standards of the rest of the Town's water, then engineering and capital
improvements are needed. He feels that it is something the Town Board should take a look at.
Councilwoman McCarthy asked what the capital improvements would entail. Mr.
Tremper replied that there might be new wells that were not installed properly. They would need
to be checked for seals or intrusion. He would check chlorine detention facilities. He would ask
Mr. Gray to look at separating the irrigation and potable water systems so there was no cross
connection there. He would need to make sure there is the proper cross connection control
system between the snack bar and the rest of the water system. At some point, the septic system
should be looked at.
Councilman Paoloni asked how many bathrooms are out there and how often are they
used. Mr. Tremper answered that there are six bathrooms and a busy kitchen. Councilman
Paoloni asked if enough water was being used to justify another well or would filtration on the
existing wells be sufficient. He added that it isn?t a question of not enough capacity. Mr. Gray
stated that to do this right, the wells need to be tested and a capacity analysis, chemical tests and
physical tests need to be conducted. Discussion on costs followed.
Mr. Gray then discussed the Hill Top water storage tank. There are two tanks at that site.
One is a million gallon steel tank and the other is a new glass -lined tank. The steel tank was
rehabilitated sometime around the year 2000. Other deterioration has been noted since then.

Regular Meeting Minutes April 14, 2008
There has been a diver in the tank. It needs to be sandblasted and recoated inside and out. Mr.
Tremper went on to recap the discussions involving this project in the past. He also explained
that the work that was done in the past was substandard. It needs to be emptied, cleaned and
resurfaced. Discussion followed.
The last topic to discuss was the Rockingham tank project. The bid was awarded to
Taylor Recycling. The company has submitted all documentation and is not ready to move to
contracting.
With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 8:29
PM.
B. General Code - Bruce Cadman
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 8:29 PM. Bruce Cadman, a representative
from General Code, was on hand to present a product called WebLink to the Town Board.
WebLink is a product that provides the documents that the Town has scanned to the public. Mr.
Cadman used an overhead projector to give a demonstration of the product.
Councilwoman McCarthy noted that it was a great idea. Councilman Bettina added that
he supported the idea.
Councilman Beale asked if General Code took care of the paper code supplements.
Discussion followed about the best way to get Councilman Beale's copy of the Town Code up to
date. The Code is online, but the pages would not line up with the page numbers in the paper
code. Councilman Bettina recommended having a PDF version of the code in the Town Clerk's
office. Discussion followed.
Councilwoman McCarthy asked how much the upgrade was. Mr. Cadman answered that
the proposal for WebLink is $14,074. The costs could be reduced if some of the training could
be done remotely.
With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 8:45
PM.

Discussions
A. Carnwath Access Plan - Bob Gray, Ralph Holt, George Kolb
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:01PM. Bob Gray, Town Engineer, noted
that he had given plans pertaining to this project to Ralph Holt. He then passed out copies to the
Town Board. He then went on to describe the plan, which is an access road from the existing
parking lot down to the Sports Museum. The path is a twelve foot wide paved area, which will
be at a gradual enough slope so it can be used for handicapped and emergency vehicle access.
The plan is to also move the barricade fence closer to the Mansion. That would allow access to
the Chapel from the parking lot. The estimate for the access road is approximately $50,000. The
estimate does not include moving the fence. Mr. Gray added that he has asked and not received
a price from Adams Fence to move and remove some of the fence. He has asked Adams Fence
what it would cost to buy the fence. The estimate also does not include the plans for the four
handicapped parking spaces.
George Kolb, Director of Code Enforcement, stated that he had been approached by
members of the Sports Museum about getting it reopened. Supervisor Colsey asked him to work
with Mr. Gray to come with an alternative plan. This plan satisfies him, Mr. Gray, the Fire
Inspector and the Fire Chiefs.
Councilman Paoloni asked if this is something the Town Board would like to spend
$50,000 on since the situation is temporary and the road won't be closed off forever. He also
asked if this would be a part of the future design of the property. Mr. Kolb answered that he
didn't know about a future design, but that the area between the Mansion and the retaining wall
is problematic at best. It would be money well spent and good to have, even when the regular
road opens up. Mr. Gray said that there would also be an extension of the parking lot in this
plan. Discussion about the use of the path followed.
Councilman Beale noted that the current road is a problem for emergency personnel. It
was a problem 15 years ago when one of the houses burned down. His only hesitation is the cost
and he asked if this could be done internally to save money. Al Roberts, Town Attorney, then
described the process the Town would have to go through to do the work.
Councilman Paoloni asked if the Town had a topographical map of the entire property.
Mr. Gray answered that he had purchased one from the County Tax Department with aerial
photography. The map that the Town Board had in front of them was given by the engineer who
worked for Greystone and is more detailed.
Supervisor Colsey then asked what the Town Board would like to do. Councilman Beale
stated he would like to see the project go out to bid. Councilwoman McCarthy recommended
seeing what the bids come in as and then making a decision.
Councilman Beale asked what the current status of the Mansion is. Mr. Kolb said they
have not done an assessment. Councilman Beale asked if it would be looked into as a part of the
Town Inventory. Mr. Kolb confirmed. Discussion about how to go about the Town Inventory of
buildings followed.
Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 9:12 PM.

Regular Meeting Minutes April 14, 2008
B. Moratorium - Chris Colsey, Al Roberts
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:13 PM. Al Roberts, Town Attorney, stated
that the Town Board has been given a copy of the proposed legislation. The legislation would
suspend the provisions of the zoning code as it applies to residential development. Within the
definitions, the various residential districts have been identified. This includes R-80 to RMF -5,
the planned unit development district, mixed-use district, and hamlet mixed-use district, all of
which have components for residences. He then listed key terms that are used and defined in the
legislation, such as residence, residential district, and scope of controls.
According to Mr. Roberts, Councilman Bettina had questioned why no new roads could
be built. Mr. Roberts explained that it would create extra infrastructure for the Town to
maintain. The Town's professional staff all had input into this decision. The legislation is in
draft form to discuss. The intention is to leave the meeting with it in final form for introduction
and adoption in May. He asked for guidance.
Councilwoman McCarthy was satisfied with the version that was on the table.
Councilman Beale had no objections.
Mr. Roberts pointed out that May 12th is a target date to do the public hearing. It would
give a little more breathing room if it was done the next meeting after that, but he isn't sure what
day that would be. Mr. Roberts then said to plan for May 12th. He will consult the County
Planning Department. Hopefully, they will get him an answer promptly.
With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 9:17
PM.
C. Summer Meeting/Comprehensive Plan Meeting Schedule - Chris Colsey
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:18 PM. The Town Board has been given a
copy of the tentative summer schedule for Meetings. He clarified that there is no resolution on
the Agenda. He asked for input and concerns to lay out all of the meetings through August. The
Town Board discussed the schedule around Memorial Day.
Councilwoman McCarthy noted that in the past the Town Board has had a lighter
meeting schedule in July and August and said the only conflict for her is July 23rd.
Councilman Beale asked if all of the special meetings in June were going to be needed to
reach all of their objectives. David Stolman, Town Planner, replied that they probably would not
be necessary and it would depend on how smoothly they go.
Councilwoman McCarthy discussed the scheduling conflict. Supervisor Colsey asked
her to notify him by e-mail so that he could switch the day.
Councilman Beale asked what time the Meetings would start. Supervisor Colsey
answered that they would begin at 7:00 PM.
Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 9:20 PM.
D. Cell Phone Conversion - George Kolb
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:20 PM. George Kolb gave a background
on the topic, including the reasons that he originally began searching for an alternate service
provider for cell phone service. He has provided the Board with a proposal from Verizon. This
proposal is for $8800 and would equate to a $4600 per year savings. A survey was done to find
out what departments would need service and what their usage would be. Mr. Kolb went on to
explain the proposal.
Councilwoman McCarthy asked if the camp counselors would have cell phones. Joe
Incoronato, Legislative Aide, confirmed and further explained. The phones are deactivated in
the off-season. Discussion followed. The number of phones was based on number of locations,
not number of counselors. Councilwoman McCarthy then asked about text messaging as part of
the agreement. Maria Gilbride, a secretary with the Building Department, noted that only certain
phones would have unlimited text messaging. She recommends directing Verizon to block text
messaging from the remaining phones. Discussion about the monitoring of usage followed. Mr.
Kolb noted that the Code Enforcement Department will be looking to phase out the vehicle
radios in their vehicles because the phones will be sufficient. The secretaries in the Department
would be able to text messages to the officers in the field from their desktop computers. This
would be a savings of $30.00 per month.
Mr. Incoronato commented on the benefit of field inspectors being able to transmit
picture messages. Mrs. Gilbride added that the agreement would be for text and pictures. She
went on to explain the difference in sending a message to another Verizon phone as compared to
sending the same message to an outside recipient. She noted that the departments would be able
to keep the current phone numbers and transfer the contacts in the Nextel phone. Discussion
about the counselor phones continued.
Councilman Beale brought up the fact that several Town employees utilize the direct
connect feature of Nextel service. Mr. Kolb answered that it would not affect his department.
Graham Foster, Highway Superintendent, added that his department will miss that feature. He
Town of Wappinger Page 5 Printed 4/25/2008
Regular Meeting Minutes April 14, 2008
went on to say that there is no reception in the center of Town. There are only two phones in the
Highway department. The benefits that the new phones will bring outweigh the loss of direct
connect. He felt that the Nextel Service was terrible. Discussion about the cell tower and the
lease for the cell tower followed.
With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 9:34
PM.
E. NYS Taxation & Finance Assessment - Chris Colsey
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:34 PM. He spoke about an employee
performance issue which occurred and was addressed last year. A consequence of that issue is
that the Town has been assessed a fine from the State for failing to properly file tax withholdings
forms in 2006. The Town is appealing this fine for the second time. Currently, the fine is
approximately $10,000.00. Councilman Beale asked what the options are for this. Supervisor
Colsey spoke about what steps have been taken to appeal this fine, as the first appeal was
unsuccessful. He will update the Board as necessary with any further information. With no
further comments or questions, the discussion was closed at 9:35 PM.
F. Central Hudson Past Due & Finance Charges - Chris Colsey
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:36 PM. He pointed out that this issue goes
back to a former Comptroller and there are some outstanding Central Hudson past due balances.
He does not know the full background on the issue, but does know that there was a suggestion
that governments do not owe finance charges. Central Hudson is standing firm that the Town
owes them Six Thousand Dollars ($6,000.00). He then asked for direction from the Town
Board.
Councilman Beale asked what the options are. Councilwoman McCarthy commented
that the former Comptroller was mistaken in his assumption that the Town doesn't pay finance
charges and if the bills are paid in a timely manner there wouldn't be finance charges to pay.
Discussion about timely payments followed.
Councilman Paoloni noted that he has noticed that Central Hudson does not get permits
when they clear trees out. He feels that they should have to follow the law. He then asked if the
Town will enforce that. Councilman Beale stated that maybe the Town can send them a letter
along with the payment. George Kolb, Director of Code Enforcement, said he would want to
discuss this with the Town Attorney before issuing any tickets. Councilman Paoloni asked Al
Roberts, the Town Attorney, if he had any comments. Mr. Roberts stated that Central Hudson
has a pre-existing state-wide franchise agreement and he is unsure how the Local Law, which
was passed after the franchise was granted, would apply in this case. Councilman Paoloni asked
Mr. Roberts to find out. Jim Horan, Town Attorney, said he would do research to find out
whether or not the law applies to this situation.
With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 9:39
PM.
G. Comptroller Software Budget Issue - Chris Colsey
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:39 PM. He stated that the Town Board
intended to put money aside for the comptroller software, and it is his belief it was omitted on
the Budget in error. He is therefore looking for direction from the Board in what to do to correct
this budget line error. Councilman McCarthy asked if there had been a firm decision by the
Board to select one of the three vendors from which quotes were received. Councilman Beale
stated that he recalls this issue being discussed at Budget workshops and thought there was going
to be $40,000 set aside for this line item. The amount was then compromised down to $20,000.
He then questioned why there were so many discrepancies in the adopted budget.
Councilman Paoloni suggested that the minimum amount be budgeted and make further
adjustments if necessary. Supervisor Colsey commented that he favors the software package that
costs $15,000. Discussion about the software followed. With no further comments or questions,
Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 9:43 PM.
H. Highway Phone Service - Chris Colsey, Graham Foster
.rr
Supervisor Colsey opened the discussion at 9:43 PM. Graham Foster, Highway
Superintendent, said that the resolution basically explains everything. The Highway Department
is switching over to the optimum phone system. There were problems with the roll-over but they
have been taken care of He then said that they have to get the voice mail set up.
Supervisor Colsey said that, on average, it roughly saves the Town Fifty Dollars ($50.00)
per month.
With no further comments or questions, Supervisor Colsey closed the discussion at 9:43
PM.

Motion To: open the floor to public comments on the Agenda Items at 9:44 PM
RESULT: ADOPTED [UNANIMOUS]
MOVER: Maureen McCarthy, Councilwoman
SECONDER: William Beale, Councilman
AYES: Colsey, Beale, Bettina, McCarthy, Paoloni
Public Comments on the Agenda Items
Councilwoman McCarthy made a motion to open the floor to public comments on the
Agenda items. The motion was seconded by Councilman Beale and passed unanimously.
Bill Emslie spoke first on behalf of the Sports Museum. This past winter, he has had to
turn handicapped groups away from the Museum due to the limited access. There are programs
that the Museum would like to participate in and he would like to know if there is a timeframe
that he can use for planning purposes. Supervisor Colsey asked what the best and worst case
scenario is. Bob Gray, Engineer to the Town, answered that a completion target of the end of
July would be a best case scenario. Discussion followed.
Mary Schmalz notified the Board that she is in the process of putting the Ramble together
and her paperwork has to be in by May 1 st. She needs the Sports Museum for this. The Ramble
will be the last few weekends in September. She wants to know if she will be able to use the
Museum. Supervisor Colsey again noted the best case scenario. Al Roberts, Town Attorney,
noted that the Board doesn't even know what the project will cost yet. Supervisor Colsey
informed Mrs. Schmalz that the Board would be in a better position to give an estimate in
approximately 45 days. Mr. Emslie commented that Mrs. Schmalz needs an answer by April 1 st.
Supervisor Colsey informed Mr. Emslie that the Town is not in a position to make that estimate.
Mr. Gray added that it would need to go to competitive bid. It would take at least 30 days to
have contractors look at it. Mr. Roberts pointed out that any estimate at this point would be
speculation. Discussion followed.
Councilman Beale asked what the Ramble is and what events are planned for Carnwath.
Mrs. Schmalz replied that she is organizing a bike tour of Wappinger. The Sports Museum is
participating by having a bike related exhibit. She went on to discuss an ice -boating event that
she held and the fact that participating in the Ramble is taken into account on grant applications.
Discussion followed. Councilman Beale stated that he did not know anything about this event
taking place at Carnwath. He is nervous about having large groups of people at the site when the
buildings are in such disarray. He asked if she is coordinating the event with anyone on the
Town level. Mrs. Schmalz replied that the event is promoting a local business. Councilman
Beale again asked if she was working with anyone from the Town on this or if she was planning
it independently. Mr. Emslie answered that there was a Beacon Bears event, a Hudson Valley
Cowboys reunion, and a fast -pitch softball reunion there. He picked the 13th because he needs
time to get it open. Supervisor Colsey pointed out that Councilman Beale's question was
whether they were working with someone from the Town. The question went unanswered. Mrs.
Schmalz added that other events can be part of the Ramble because it runs for three weekends.
Councilman Beale clarified his point. He thinks that the Town Board needs to be aware of
events being planned at Carnwath. If there are going to be events at Carnwath, the Board needs
to be more pro -active with what is going to happen to the structure. Mr. Emslie replied that they
have asked the Board for permission in the past and plan to do so this time. Discussion followed.
Councilwoman McCarthy made a motion to reinstate the rules at 9:58 PM. The motion
was seconded by Councilman Beale and passed unanimously.

MOVER: Maureen McCarthy, Councilwoman
SECONDER: William Beale, Councilman
AYES: Christopher Colsey, William Beale, Maureen McCarthy, Joseph Paoloni
ABSENT: Vincent Bettina
Motion To: forward the Buyakowski application to the Town Planner
Al Roberts, Town Attorney, explained that this issue is a result of Mr. Buyakowski
contacting the Supervisor's office. It is for the property on Airport Drive. The applicant has
requested a change in zone to Airport Industrial. When the applicant submitted the plan, he did
not include a change in use regulations that would permit a training facility as a permitted
principal use. They then decided that they needed that change. The Town Attorney had asked
the applicant to amend the application. The amended application was submitted by a letter,
dated March 29th. Mr. Roberts noted that he does not know why it was not placed on the
Agenda. The applicant's attorney had asked Mr. Roberts if it was going to be on the Agenda.
Mr. Roberts replied that he does not make those types of decisions. Mr. Roberts also claimed
that the applicant called Town Hall and was told to call him. Mr. Roberts summarized that the
applicant is asking that the application be entertained now and be referred to the Town Planner
for introduction of the appropriate zoning amendments.
Supervisor Colsey asked for a motion to add the issue to the Agenda by unanimous
consent. Councilwoman McCarthy made the motion and Councilman Beale seconded the
motion. The motion passed unanimously.
Supervisor Colsey asked for a motion to refer the matter to the Town Planner.
