Designing Around You e°°~ iriw r.. Clark Patterson Lee UNDERSTANDING AND EXPERIENCE Clark Patterson Lee has served the Hudson Valley since the mid 1970's when Clark Engineers began providing engineering services here and in Western New York. Since, Clark Patterson Lee has significantly expanded its municipal services and geographic reach by establishing lasting relationships with municipal clients and delivering Engineering and Planning Board services in a timely and cost efficient manner. Our focus and dedication is based on our duty as design professionals as well as our desire as residents and neighbors to serve the interests of the Dutchess County and the Hudson Valley community. Clark Patterson Lee's business in the Hudson Valley area and New York is almost exclusively with governmental and institutional clients. Due to this, we are unlikely to have had a prior (or ongoing) business relationship with a potential developer that may come before the Town resulting in a conflict of interest or bias. Mr. Greg Bolner will be the primary review engineer working with the Town of Wappinger Planning Board and has over 30 years of civil engineering experience in the private development and municipal sectors. He also has over 10 years experience working as a lead engineer for municipal clients in Dutchess County, including site plan and subdivision reviews. With a staff of nearly 230 design professionals spanning the fields of engineering, architecture, planning and construction services, Clark Patterson Lee has the technical expertise available to provide a quality engineering and/or architectural review of virtually any project that may come before the Planning Board. This proposal includes a list of Civil Engineering and Planning Services we provide as an example of our experience, which we would apply to site plan reviews. These professionals are in-house and available to Mr. Bolner, specialized aspects of a project will receive a quality review without incurring additional costs or delays in review associated with bringing in another firm. While Clark Patterson Lee is not proposing to provide planning services as a stand-alone function, Clark Patterson Lee has planners on staff to supplement our ability to provide the Town quality Planning Board reviews. Project Review Delivery Clark Patterson Lee understands the Town of Wappinger's meeting and submission schedule is a period of approximately four weeks from submission to being placed on the Planning Board agenda. This is more than adequate time to complete a thorough review of the material submitted and provide a comment letter outlining where the plan does not conform to Town code to the Town Planning Board in advance of the meeting.
