She explained that the Town Board. is looking at proposals. It is required that she write RM102692 a letter to them explaining the Town's intentions. She was thinking of hiring an architect for this, however, this may be putting the cart before the horse since the Town has no firm commitment from the Village of Wappingers Falls who supposedly j wants to join the Town in this project. The D.E.C. asked the Supervisor to state in the letter what the Town intends to do about the polluted wells, however, she pointed out that we do not necessarily have polluted wells, there is no proof that we do have them until they are tested, so this will not be included in the correspondence to them. If it should be proven that we do have this problem then we have to come up with a plan on what we intend to do about the pollution. MRS. VISCONTI moved to authorize the Attorney to the Town to prepare the necessary documents for the saltbin project. Seconded by Mr. Valdati Motion Unanimously Carried Irr..

He felt that this would reduce the backup at Ketchamtown Road. Mr. Valdati agreed to some extent, however, he had suggested that the Highway Superintendent send a letter to the State requesting that they put up signs indicating that intersection at. Ketchamtown Road and Route 9D should be kept. clear and not blocked by traffic. Mr. Foster did send a letter to the State and is waiting for a response. He will follow up on that.
