Discussions
Dinner Theater/Zoning Amendments
Motion To: Accept the Petition, Refer the Petition to the Planning Board and set Escrow at
$1,500
Attorney Jennifer Vantigh came in front of the board to discuss a text amendment to the COP
zone to include dinner theaters as a permissible use. She is asking the board to accept a petition
to rezone, setting an escrow, and refer to the planning board for a recommendation. Councilman
Kuzmicz fully supports the rezone of said property for the use to include Dinner Theater use in a
COP zone. Councilwoman Czarniecki frilly agreed. Councilnman Beale asked if restauants are
permissible in a COP zone and wants to make sure this does not contradict previous legislative
intent effects with theater and restaurant uses in this zone. Supervisor Gutzler asked for a motion
to accept the petition to rezone said property, refer to planning board and set escrow at $1,500.
Motion passed.

Toll Brother water needs at Regency (formerly Hilltop)
Attorney Richard O'Rourke came in front of the board to discuss the water needs at the Toll
Brothers Regency currently under development. Proposed 62,136 gallons per day irrigation
needs may need additional water for landscaping . They will try to drill a well to supplement
what was already approved. Toll has estimated usage was an estimated at 22,000 gallons per day
and 40,000 gallons per day for irrigation. Additionally, they will download meter readings to
Camo Water and Sewer and to the town. They came to advise the board of this and asked to
make the connection. Councilman Bettina asked for clarification on whether the town will
increase the allowance or not. Camo Water and Sewer professional Mike Tremper clarified that
they will NOT be allocated extra capacity. Councilman Bettina astutely asked about the
Town of lf'appinger Page 2 Printed 7'10'2014
Regular Meeting Minutes lune 9, 2014
prohibited concurrent use of a private well along with municipal use. Mr. Tremper explained
that there must be an air gap between the systems, keeping them separate, to be approved.
Councilwoman Czarnieki asked if water was found would the allocated usage be under utilized
reducing the effective draw on the water supply. Attorney O'Rourke afffirmed that private water
was much preferred to the cost of municipal water. Discussion continued.
C. Mayor Matt Alexander re efficiency and shared services grants
Village of Wappingers Falls Mayor Matt Alexander came to the town board to discuss grants.
He explained a grant to study the analysis of sediment and chemical accumulation in the
Wappinger Lake. They are asking for a phase one study to an analysis of the sediment and
phosphorous loading, the decreased depth in the lake, and the state of the watershed. The study
would look at all of the properties upstream and flood resiliency and storm water runoff This
program would pay half of the cost that would be shared by the three municipalities, i.e. the
Town of Poughkeepsie, the village of Wappingers Falls, and the town of Wappinger. This
program pays half of the cost.
A phase two study would offer 75% funding for renewable energy sources putting solar panels at
various places throughout the three municipalities, and planning for the waterfront renewable
project.
A phase three would be $1.9 million in led lighting with 75% covered with grants. Mt. Alvernia
would get $200,000, the town of Poughkeepsie would pay $600,000 and the town of Wappinger
would pay $395,000 with 75% covered with grants. This would create a micro grid get power
usage down to 65%, power remaining usage with renewable sources.
Three other grant programs include waterfront revitalization and would cost $250,000 for the
town of Wappingers and $250,000 for the village and $200,000 to create village trails and dock
from the town of Poughkeepsie side of the lake. The second is a Bio Swale GIGP program will
manage flooding which is a $750,000 project with 90% paid. The third is a planning and re-
development study of the bleachery.
He would also like to apply for money in a capital improvement to sewer line taking the
Woodhill green condominiums off their sewer capacity. We would be eligible for 20% funding
of a $5 million project with 20% or a $1.2 request to be funded by the Woodhill Green
condominiums.
He asked for the towns support on any or all of the programs.

Councilman Bettina asked for an aggregate total. Mayor Alexander said that the town of
Wappinger would be responsible for 1/3 of 25% of the $250,000 or approximately $20,833.
Additionally, the town of Wappinger would have to pay 25% of $395,000 for LED lighting or
approximately $100,000. Bettina also asked how fast we recoup the investment and that there is
no guarantee that we will get money. Mayor Alexander explained that there is no outlay of
money for preparatory work and that the village is paying for all preparatory costs for grants.
The town needs only put forth letters of support letting the village quarterback the entire process.
Councilman Beale asked how the lighting districts would be charged. Attorney Horan explained
that lighting would come out of the B/DB outside village tax base and some out of the lighting
district fiend. There was uncertainty as to the costs of the sewer improvements. Mayor
Alexander explained that this would include all lighted areas of the town including Robinson
lane ball fields.
The town board all confirmed that if grants were no obtained then there would be no cost for the
town of Wappinger. Should grants or partial grants be obtained the town would then need to
fund the un -granted portion.
The town board approved the initiative set forth by the mayor.

UWWD extension down Route 9 (Bob Gray)
Engineer Bob Gray explained his feasibility study to extend the water district down route 9. The
base plan from old route 9 to N&S with mains on both sides of the highway for better lateral
access. There are 24 properties that currently have to treat their water. It takes 5 gallons of
water to treat 1 gallon of water. The next step would be to meet with property owners to discuss
their costs. The board discussed their availability for an information meeting. An afternoon
meeting was set for June 24th at 1-3PM. Councilman Beale confirmed the overall plan that the
water lines go from BJs across route 9 both north to the village line along old route 9 North; and,
south down the west side of route 9 across the highway to Adams down the east side to Mac
Farland drive to the Pavilion and back to the loop on Old Hopewell road. At the cross to Adams
it will also continue on the west of route 9 to Lawrence Farms across route 9 to N&S to the
Fishkill line. It will also go to up the east side of route 9 to Smithtown road back up to Mac
Farland Drive completing the loop.
