The meeting was called by Supervisor Paino for the sole purpose of
considering the reimbursement of overpaid water charges to a
resident in the Watch Hill Water District. Notices were sent to
the Town Board on December 15, 1988 calling said meeting for
December 19, 1988 at 7:15 P.M. Notices were sent to the News
Media on the same day and also posted on the Town Clerk's Bulletin
Board maintained by her in the Town Hall.
Mr. Carlo Picciotti, Mocassin View Road, wrote to the Board in
October indicating that he has been a tenant to the Watch Hill Water
District for the past six years until it was brought to his attention
by another resident of that area, that his property is within the
boundary lines of that District and he was entitled to receive water
service at the regular rates. He had previously paid a $500.00 hookup
fee and double the rates paid by the residents of that District.
The Engineer investigated the map of that District and determined that
Mr. Picciotti's property was indeed within the boundaries. A work
shop followed and Mr. Picciotti presented his bills to confirm the
fact that he was paying double rates. Confirmation was also received
from Debra Brown, Water and Sewer Billing Clerk that he had paid $897.00
more than he should have paid over the course of these years. He should
also be reimbursed $250.00 of the hook fee, as he has also paid double
for that service.
MRS. PAINO moved to reimburse Mr. Picciotti the sum of $1,147.00 which
represents $897.00 overage for tenant fees plus $250.00 overage in
hookup fees, for the Watch Hill Water District.
Seconded by Mrs. Smith
Motion Unanimously Carried

MR. FARINA moved to close the Special Meeting, seconded by Mr.
Reis and unanimously carried.
The meeting closed at 7:20 P.M.
