Mr. Diehl noted that the Engineer to the Town had been requested
to seek informal bids on a Hydrant on Old Hopewell Road and
MacFarland Road to be taken across to White Gates Apartments,
who will be a customer of the Central Wappinger Water Improvement
Area. The tap is to be brought to their line and he is to hook in -
which is a valuable asset to this Town Improvement.
Mr. Lapar quoted the informal bids his office had received as
174
being: Dave Alexander, Inc. ® A1,537.50; K & A Excavating $4,100.00;
and Herbert Stenger $1,925.00. (But Stenger did not bid on crossing
the road). The apparent low bidder in any event is Dave Alexander
Inc.
SUPERVISOR DIEHL moved to accept the bid of Dave Alexander, Inc.
at $1,537.50 for the installation of the Hydrant at Old Hopewell
and MacFarland Roads, and further the Engineer to the Town instruct
thie
Mr. Alexander of the Board's acceptance of his bid, and that he
lbw must get a road opening permit and all other necessary permits and
obtain a meter to be placed at the White Gates Apartments.

Mr. Ryan, noting that the Town Board had approved Mrs. Anderson's
request for seeking Demolition Bids for the MTS property, requested
the Board move that the funds for that bid be taken out of Contingency -
part Town, as there are funds available there, and these funds are
recoverable on the Tax Roll.
MR. VERSACE moved that funds to pay for the demolition of building
and debris on property owned by MTS Corp. be taken out of Contin-
gency -Part Town.

Mr. Clausen commented that one of the large problems still facing
the Town was that of solid waste disposal. He stated that Mr.
Gubatosi did, at one of the meetings, hand the Board three propo-
sals. With those proposals, and any others that the Board has
before it, (or any others the Board can think of) the Board should
sit down and discuss the solid waste disposal problem, and come
up with a long range and short range policy and consider any
proposal either in the light of a future emergency should arise,
or an actual contract at the present time, whichever seems best
for the Board.
MR. CLAUSEN moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Mr. Jensen,
and unanimously carried.
The meeting adjourned at 9:17 P.M.
