BOX 324 WAPPiNGERS FALLS, N.Y. 12590-0324 TO: TOWN BOARD FROM: GRAHAM FOSTER DATE: NOVEMBER 14, 2001 SUBJECT: JAY PAGGI'S MEMO DATED JUNE 6, 1989 I recently received a copy of the attached memo, which was dated June 6, 1989. It appears the problem still exists and was not addressed at that time. Those of you who were around at that time may remember that my predecessor, Ken Crosier,was taken ill at about the same time, which would explain why the project dropped in the cracks. I feel we should, once again, pursue the problem. Since we will be involved in State permits, we should make sure we are ready to do the project next spring. In the meantime, Jay can obtain the necessary permits for my crew to do the work.

Read Dear Board Members: At the request of Supervisor Palno, I field inspected the• above drainage complaint and adVige the tQllowing: . 1) The road runoff from Didell Road travels in a Westerly direction towards Route 376. Prior to its intersection with Route 376, it leaves the roadway and travels across Lands of Mr, and Mrs. Frank 14icodemus. The area where the water traverses has become somewhat eroded and has washed away a certain amount of Mr. Nicodemus' topsoil, 2) There has been a blacktop curb installed at this Point but apparently due to the flow of water, it is not adequate to capture the runoff and transfer it to the Department of Transpott-ion roadside ditch that eXists adjacent to Route 376. 3) In order to effectively E� Ive this problem', it would be my recommendation that a catchbasin be installed on Didell Road and a pipeline constructed to the New York . State Department of Transportation drainage ditch. At this point in time, a new. curb could be installed along the northerly side Of Didell Road to further trap the runoff prior from it enteriftQ the Nicodemus property. JaacphF.. E'a�+gi,Jr,.l',L.
