Business:
Ms. Liddle reviewed procedures for conducting a “hybrid meeting,” in which at least three Board
members are physically present while other members zoom in. The Board then turned to the business at
hand.
Minor Subdivision: Brian Ford proposes to subdivide the property located at 7331 Willow Creek Rd,
Town of Ulysses, Tax Parcel Number 14.-4-6.2 into two lots. The property is located in the Agricultural
(A/R) Zone District.
Mr. Ford informed the Board that he needs to subdivide 19 acres from his property into two parcels,
one of which includes a now-unoccupied house where his mother once lived. The parcel with the house
meets road frontage requirements and a septic system has been approved. He added that a buyer is
taking the property as is.
Mr. Hutnik noted that the Board must hold a public hearing before making a decision on the proposal.
Ms. Liddle then read the SEQR Resolution into the minutes.
