VI. Public Portion Bill rose to speak about a non -agenda item regarding Royal Carting garbage service pickup in the early hours of the morning. He cited an August town board meeting where the issue of starting time for garbage pickup was discussed. He questioned an exemption they had that he did not remember hearing at the August 2013 meeting (minutes of the discussion of both the August 23rd and September 9th are attached below). He stated that they are arriving between 5:17 AM and also at 5; 20 AM, regularly. He explained that he lives on a cul-de-sac on Drew Court where there are I I homes. Councilman Beale stated that the exemption was to be for areas Tower of lf'appinger Page 2 Printed 10'152014 Regular Meeting Minutes September 22, 2014 that had to be picked up early such as schools before the busses get there; however he recognized that Bill lives in a purely residential neighborhood. Councilwoman Czarniecki added that the context that this was discussed not only included schools, but large complexes, and commercial pick-ups. Councilman Bettina asked Town Clerk Paoloni to supply the minutes of those discussions which I have attached below. Councilman Kuzmicz suggested that the resident take a log of the dates that this happens. Resident Gary Lindstrom rose to tell what he remembered of the discussion. He said the exemption was to be for schools and large commercial not for residential areas. Local law 415-2013 attached below Resident Lindstrom gave his support to the efforts by the Town Clerk to try and broadcast Town Board meeting live and added that he is a strong component of TV coverage. Resident Lindstrom continued to comment on the town's need for a fiill time groundskeeper stating that most of his work would be mowing and summertime work that would not be needed during the winter. Councilman Kuzmicz pointed out there are plenty of things to take care of in the winter months such as garbage at the parks, our emergency services building that constantly has issues that have to be dealt with and plenty of other things that need attention. Resident Lindstrom suggested that the title be changed to better reflect the work. Supervisor Gutzler stated that the groundkeeper is the correct tittle and that is a Civil Services title and is correct. She added that Civil Service regulations allow the groundkeeper to do other duties as assigned by the town board. She added the highway department does not plow the sidewalks and parking area at town hall. This groundskeeper will plow snow at town hall, the emergency service building, and also at some of the parks. She added that she had helped shovel the town hall sidewalks. Resident Mary Schmalz asked about adding closed -caption on the live TV broadcast for the hearing impaired. Supervisor Gutzler added that this was something that we could look into. Councilman Beale re -introduced the Royal Carting garbage discussion asking the Zoning Inspector Barbara Roberti if it were a local law. Zoning Inspector Roberti affirmed. Beale asked why they had all those discussion that ended up with them adopting a law that exempts garbage tricks. Planner David Stollman interjected that they can pick up earlier than what was normal throughout the county. Supervisor Gutzler recalled that it was exempt only for commercial and schools, but not necessarily residential, but agreed to go back and look at the law. Councilman Kuzmics recalled that they originally wanted 5:00 AM as a start time and settled at 7:00 AM. Attorney Roberts disagreed pointing out that he had added stricter guidelines. Councilman Beale pointed out that he noticed garbage tricks collecting garbage on Osborne Hill Road at 4:45 AM. Councilman Kuzmics said he clearly remembers that the law stipulated residential pickup at 7:00 AM, but agreed to look at the specifics of the law. Supervisor Gutzler said that they need to get the specifics on the noise ordinance, get a list of the times, talk to Royal Carting, and if the problem persists then issue summonses. Councilman Beale asked about who would enforce this. Attorney Roberts said they would first need it in the form of an affidavit, but was interrupted by Tower of lf'appinger Page 3 Printed 10'152014 Regular Meeting Minutes September 22, 2014 a resident before he could complete the enforcement process. MINUTES ON THIS DISCUSSION FROM THE AUGUST 26TH, 2013 AND SEPTEMBER 9TH, 2013 MEETING; AND EXCERPT FROM LOACL LAW 415-2013: D. Noise Ordinance Revision- Royal Carting - August 26, 2013 Richard Cantor introduced Jim Constantino, counsel to Royal Carting and Roy Garino, route supervisor. Mr. Cantor stated that the Town had adopted a local law including an exemption for garbage tricks between the hours of 6 A.M. and 10 P.M. He explained that he was there to ask the Board to consider amending that to 5 A.M to avoid congestion on the roads and allow Royal Carting to service the schools before students and teachers arrive. He stated that he had provided the board with a letter describing the routes that were of specific concern. Councilman Kuzmicz asked if Royal Carting had been abiding by the adopted law. Mr. Cantor said that they had been. Councilman Kuzmicz stated that he had seen Royal Carting garbage tricks picking up before 6 A.M. Mr. Cantor said any violations were inadvertent and Royal Carting intends to abide by the law. Councilman Beale asked if Mr. Cantor was aware of the Town of Poughkeepsie noise ordinance. Mr. Cantor referred the question to Mr. Constantino. Mr. Constantino said that he believed the Town of Poughkeepsie had two start times in their noise ordinance. One start time for residential and one for commercial pick up. Councilman Beale said there is one start time which is 7AM and that Royal Carting tricks have been pulled over by the police for violating that ordinance. Councilman Beale explained that because of the co -mingled recycling pick up, he has received complaints from residents who can hear garbage pickup at 5 A.M. He asked why residents in Wappinger should have to hear garbage tricks at 5.AM. when residents in Poughkeepsie don't have to hear it until 7 A.M. Mr. Cantor stated that he did not believe the issue was Town of Wappinger residents vs. Town of Poughkeepsie residents. It instead is whether it makes sense for the Town of Wappinger to allow garbage pickup before 6 A.M. to reduce traffic congestion. Councilman Beale said that he disagreed. He continued that he understands that it is more efficient when there is less traffic and he would consider compromising in certain commercial areas, but not in neighborhoods. He said that he has been behind Royal carting tricks picking up in Wappinger at 4:30 in the morning. He said that the Town of Wappinger is not trying to emulate the Town of Poughkeepsie, but it can be used as an example of a town that does enforce their regulations on garbage pickup. He added that this is a quality of life issue. Councilman Bettina spoke askeing if Royal would be willing to split the time difference and move it to 5:30AM. Mr. Cantor responded that yes, 5:30AM would be better than six. He said that they are here to discuss this with the Board and will abide by their decision. They are not there to bother or annoy anyone. Councilwoman Czarniecki asked if it was possible to look at the routes that are serviced and pick up commercial areas first. Supervisor Gutzler stated that she was looking at the commercial pick up going along Route 9. Mr. Constantino said that the ordinance he had been thinking of did have two start times one for commercial one for residential. But there is difficulty when there are residential neighborhoods mixed in with commercial buildings. He continued that residential pickups are only once a week for Royal Carting so residents would only be inconvenienced by the noise once a week. Councilman Kuzmicz asked what pressing issues Royal Carting was seeing with Poughkeepsie's start time of 7:OOAM that were influencing them in wanting to pick up earlier in Wappinger. Mr. Constantino replied that it is an issue of traffic congestion and school district issues. Mr. Cantor said that they are here hoping to alleviate inconveniences to residents. Councilman Bettina asked the Board if they would consider moving the time to 5:30AM. Councilman Beale replied that he thinks that is Tower of lf'appinger Page 4 Printed 10'152014 Regular Meeting Minutes September 22, 2014 still too early. He then stated that there are multiple articles in news papers around the county about this issue. The New York Times has one discussing garbage pickup times and that many of them including the Chicago have pick up times of 7:OOAM. He stated that his priority is residential areas but that he has no issue going back to the drawing board to deal with commercial areas. He said that the issue is comingled recycling bins create more noise than regular garbage. He asked the representatives from Royal Carting to understand that in the tight knit neighborhoods where the houses are close to each other is where there is a problem. Supervisor Gutzler asked the representatives from Royal Carting if she could meet with them informally or at another Board meeting to discuss the issue again. That way they could understand the issue better. Mr. Cantor said no, that is not a problem and that they would be happy to meet with them again. Mr. Constantino stated that Royal Carting instituted single stream recycling close to two years ago and that there are nearly 35,000 cans being used. He asked if the number of complaints out of 35,000 cans was enough to warrant changing the law to a later start time. Councilman Beale said that Royal Carting is a great company but that the Board members are out knocking on doors and they have been hearing it from residents. He continued that they may not be picking up the phone and calling Royal. However, that the Board deals with the public on a more intimate level. Mr. Constantino stated that other than the Town of Poughkeepsie, he doesn't know of another town in the county that has this restriction. Councilman Beale said that there has only been the single stream recycling for six months which is much louder than dumping bags of garbage. Mr. Constantino said that the solution may lie in different start times for refuse versus recycling. Councilman Kuzmicz asked that Royal Carting abide by the regulations until any changes are made. Mr. Cantor said that they would like to meet with the Board to craft any revisions. Supervisor Gutzler agreed. VII. Discussions - September 9th, 2013 A. Royal Carting Hours of Operation Jim Constantino explained that he was there as a continuation of the discussion about the noise ordinance. He said that he proposes a change to allow garbage tricks to pick up without causing additional traffic congestion. He explained that at the conclusion of a discussion with Supervisor Gutzler, they had recommended a modification of the exception related to refuse pick up. It is currently in effect from 6AM to l OPM. Royal carting is requesting that commercial pick up begin at SAM. They also requested that refuse in residential areas be picked up at 5AM and recyclables not until 5:30AM. Councilman Beale said he doesn't have a problem with 5AM in commercial areas, but has a problem with it in residential areas. He said that possibly all pick up no earlier than 5:30AM on weekdays and 6AM on weekends and holidays. He explained that it could be 5AM Monday through Friday in commercial areas. He asked Mr. Constantino if that was acceptable. Mr. Constantino said that he was wondering about schools which are in residential areas. They could be picked up at 5:00 but the surrounding areas not until 5:30. He also described multi dwelling complexes as commercial. Councilman Beale said he had no problem with them being considered commercial. He said that they often use dumpsters. Councilwoman Czarniecki asked if even though schools are in residential areas; the school could be considered commercial. Councilman Beale said that the schools would be considered commercial. The schools could be picked up at 5:25AM and the neighborhoods at 5:30. Councilman Beale said that if that is acceptable he would sponsor an amendment. Mr. Constantino asked to consult with Al Roberts about the language of the amendments.

Discussions 1. Television Coverage of Town Board Meetings Tower of lf'appinger Page 6 Printed 10'152014 Regular Meeting Minutes September 22, 2014 Councilman Beale opened the discussion asking if Rich Kaelin, the Audio -Video consultant that he had motioned for at a prior town board meeting, had ever made contact. Town Clerk Paoloni said that he had called a number of times and left many messages, but Mr. Kaelin only came by town hall briefly for a quick 5 minute look at the video room. Mr. Kaelin promised to return but never responded nor returned. Town Clerk Paoloni reminded the board that the system has been in operation for eight (8) years and was never designed nor used for Live Broadcast. It was only used for the slide presentation of events without sound and the re -broadcast of village of Wappingers Falls board meetings which it is currently doing as expected. He added that the village video is produced independently where audio is set upon recording. Once the video is complete, I download the video file where the audio levels are fixed and simply played on our equipment. Town Clerk Paoloni added that when he started at his new role as Town Clerk in January, he thought he would try to expand the fiinctionality of the existing equipment to encompass Live Broadcast. As a result of trial and error, and without a monitoring device, the board room audio became distorted with echoing and loud feedback whistling. This caused an issue with the June Media-Traq recording on the web site which is soon to be fixed by de- muxing the sound from the video and then re-muxing it at a louder volume. He added that after more research the live broadcast had to be amplified after the player that rebroadcasts the village video and in doing so the live broadcast is now working; however, a re -broadcast would require someone to turn up the volume for that re -broadcast only as the sound levels from a low powered computer signal would not re -broadcast audio well in a higher powered broadcasting environment. He explained that over the last two weekends he continued to do more research and has added a solution that he had tested and ran by the Supervisor earlier in the day. He added that it is working well and that they are broadcasting live at this moment, but re -iterated there might be a problem with the re -broadcast. Councilman Beale asked about the on-line version or the Media-Traq upload. Town Clerk Paoloni responded that there was only that one meeting where the live broadcasting was interfering with the on-line version. The major issue that due to the lack of an in -room monitoring device, a sound level is set and it would not be able to be monitored until it was viewed from home of a TV at another location. Town Clerk Paoloni added that the computer that drives the player that had been running continuously for eight years was the victim of a blown motherboard and would need replacement. As a temporary fix, he built a PC from spare parts in the garage over the weekend that would accommodate the existing software that is currently driving the system. Councilman Beale asked if there was a resolution for this. Supervisor Gutzler said that there was resolution for a transfer of fiends for IT services and this would be included. Councilman Beale said he put this on the agenda to try to get some progress and said he wasn't even sure if it fell under the Town Clerk's responsibility, but that he had taken it upon himself and did a good job. Councilman Beale asked if there is any support from Cablevision. Town Clerk Paoloni responded that IT professional Craig Roberts reached out to Cablevision's Dan Ahouse, but he hasn't heard back yet. He recalled that in 2006 as Councilman Paoloni, he felt that Cablevision provided the one-time infrastructure and set up only. Councilman Beale said that it seems that Cablevision should provide some service to help with the professional production. Town Clerk Paoloni added addressed resident Smalz's request for closed -caption for the hearing impaired by stating that the aforementioned player and switch is very old, and a newer model with closed -captioning fiunctionality would cost upwards of $15,000. Councilman Beale asked if there was any agreement between Cablevision and the town to update equipment. Town Clerk Paoloni said that when he was on the board with Councilman Beale eight years ago he remembered that they would only supply the equipment as a one-time deal; however he would look up in the records. Discussion concluded. 2. Inspection Report Wappinger Town Hall and Highway Buildings Tower of lf'appinger Page 7 Printed 10'152014 Regular Meeting Minutes September 22, 2014 Councilman Bettina asked Engineer Gray to update the status of obtaining a COO for town hall. Engineer Gray explained that he is putting together the specifications to go out to bid for an accordion style fire door outside of the town board main meeting room which will fold up into a closet measured 8 feet by 12 inch wide. When a smoke alarm goes off it will split the building into two sections because the fire area is too large by code. He further explained that we would need three proposals per or procurement policy. According to Engineer Gray, the Code bureau agreed if you installed door then the variance will be granted and the building permit can be close out. Councilman Beale asked about its appearance. Engineer Gray said when closed up it would be barely visible and enclosed behind a sheet rock enclosure. Councilman Bettina asked about other buildings that need to be brought up to code and need to be put into the budget. Superintendent Foster said that all the equipment at the highway department has been moved outside. He noted that they would not start in cold weather. He added that a memo in 2008 from Marshall and Sterling insurance warned us of these buildings. He added that workers need to be moved out as well for insurance reasons. He suggested a need for temporary trailers to house the workers. Councilman Bettina repeated that a safe environment is necessary and fiends need to be set aside in the budget. Supervisor Gutzler pointed out that these issues are not new and cited a Southern Dutchess news article in March 2008 that identified these situations and a resolution from back in 2008 appointing a licensed professional with respect to constriction concerns at the highway garage. She added that if the board is willing to breach the town cap then they can proceed on these issues. She suggested to see what is most crucial and that the capital reserve fiends would not be enough. She continued, that while some bonds have been retired, they would need to take away from somewhere else to so that they can make some bond payments. Councilman Bettina replied that the town highway buildings have code violations all of which have to be cured. Councilwoman Czarniecki said that they have been on borrowed time for a long time and to first set up an immediate solution and then secondly to think in terms of longer term solution. Councilman Bettina said highway employees should enjoy the same quality in a building that the town hall employees enjoy at town hall. He added that safety and insurance issue at all the town's buildings need to be addressed. Councilman Beale said that they should not pretend that this has just happened as some of them were on the board. He said he has been on the board for eight years. He added they some of them had had this conversation before. He went on to say that many other capital issues had come up, i.e. in 2008 when they were having this discussion Carnwath farms needed repairs. He added that the economy started falling apart in 2008 which limited their ability to do further work down there. He said that they had a discussion with the highway department about equipment in 2010 and focused on the equipment rather than focus on the buildings. He added they did it just again in the last 18 months for snow plows. They didn't focus on the building because they needed to make sure the roads would be clear. He stated that to sit here and suggest that someone else was negligent sends a false message. Councilwoman Czarniecki stated that this now becomes the priority. Councilman Beale said that need to identify the immediate priorities. Superintendent Foster said that there is still equipment that needs to be replaced that is very old. He added that the fire departments get what they need, yet the town does not. Councilman Beale suggested that tax revenues to each of the fire districts could focus on equipment due to the lack of a payroll. Councilman Bettina asked the Engineer to look at the Donald Swartz architectural report from 2008 that may have cited some of the issues. Bob Gray asked for a meeting with Superintendent Foster and Councilman Bettina. Councilwoman Czarniecki asked to be included in meeting as the liaison to the highway department. Bob will send at an email to get mutually agreeable times. Councilman Beale asked if there was definitive number on what is the upper limit for debt service. Supervisor Gutzler responded that they Tower of lf'appinger Page 8 Printed 10'152014 Regular Meeting Minutes September 22, 2014 3. finished paying on a water and sewer bond and paid back the money that was borrowed from the water district. Zoning: Possible Code Amendments Zoning Administrator Barbara Roberti spoke of the many different zoning types that have allowed uses that don't fit in those zones anymore and those that do fit are prohibited. She asked if she could look at the code for an overhaul. She added that the town's code is not direct enough for enforcement particularly the way is was written years ago. She cited examples with regard to fences and what a half story is. Councilwoman Czarniecki made a motion to allow the Zoning Adminstrator to examine the code for possible amendments for uses. Vote followed. Councilman Bettina asked about traffic standards in the code. Planner Stollman said that he would work with the Attorney and the Zoning Administrator. Councilman Beale asked about properties on Old Hopewell road near route 9 that may need to be looked at considering the future availability of town water. Zoning Administrator Roberti said that the zoning there is 5 acre zoning. She also cited a property at the southern end of the town along route 9 that need consistency with the area. Discussion continued about other parcels. 4.
