II/ The meeting came to order at 7 : 45 PM . Sue suggested that the
Members go over. the outline for the Draft by subject . Using a flip
chart they could list all the facts ; thoughts on what they see for
t he future , list objectives ; eventually listing recommendations .
These would be brainstorming sessions ; this way everyone would be
seeing the same information . Eventually Ruth could then put it into
t ext .
Ruth did receive quite a bit of information from Jack Fulton
o n the Fire Department . She noted that some pertinent information
was lacking . For instance : What is the cost per mile to run the
ambulance ? It does address funding sources however . There are prob -
lems with having adequate insured drivers .
It was suggested that when the Members address the Transporta -
t ion topic that Jim Meeker be invited for imput .
D avid mentioned that Mike Stamm from the Tompkins Area Develop -
ment Corporation will be speaking in January at a joint meeting of
t he Planning Board and Master Plan Committee . He will be addressing
small business needs . Everyone is welcome ; Members will be con -
t acted when a date has been arrived at .
G ary mentioned that other diagrams ( besides the land use maps and
Draft ) have yet to be produced . He is not able to do them himself .
( Diagrams that show where utilities , major roads , unique natural areas ,
and soils are . ) The question is , how professional do you want the final
d ocument ( s ) to be ? Everything needs to be in the same format said Gary .
We want a final product that people can make a copy of he said . Simple
subjects can be made , folded and put in a pocket in the back of the
book . Color maps are really useless as you can ' t make copies of them
said Sue . ( Color maps will be good for public meeting though . ) If
G ary can not do these maps the bottom line may be we ' ll have to hire
someone to do it . Alex has the colored maps , said David .
Joanne checked on the pipeline . It is not SOCONY . It is now
Mobil , out of Dallas , Texas . It is one , six inch pipe ( in a large
casing ) that can have three grades of gas plus one home heating fuel .
It carries the different fuels at different times . It comes out of
P ennsylvania , with terminals in Binghamton . From here , it goes to
Waterloo . NYSEG will have the utility information ready in January .
G ary said he may have a utility map ( natural gas lines ) . He has the
n ewest aerial photos . David has flood maps in his office . Alex
n eeds to be contacted about the wetland maps and the county maps .
The meetings for the Master Plan Committee for the month of January
will be on the 10th , 18th , and 25th . They will meet in the Town Hall
at 7 : 30 PM .
Roxanne will talk to Marsha about available space needed to store
all the maps and information that has been gathered . This way all of
it will always be in one place regardless of someone is available or
n ot for a meeting . The Members thought the space on top of the file
cabinets would be adequate .
The meeting adjourned at 8 : 45 PM .
