Report of Engineer
January 1983
SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT
Morse Borg Warner has hired McFarland and Johnson of Binghamton, N.Y. as
consulting engineers to help them with an environmental report on their
sanitary sewer system and quality of their effluent to be submitted with
their request for a permit to connect to our sewer plant and for the Village
to process their sanitary sewage. McFarland and Johnson was not one of the
consulting firms suggested by the Village.
The Village Engineer and Sewage Plant Operator inspected the Morse Borg Warner
plant on January 7, 1983 to verify the progress being.made and the precautions
being taken to protect our plant from oil "spills" during the time the consult-
ing engineers are completing their report.
For the Sewage Treatment Plant office, approval is requested to purchase a
new office desk chair at $235.80 and 3 office side chairs @ $78.10 - total cost
$470.10. Money is available in the Sewage Plant equipment account - $100+ and
the present chairs are 23 or more years old and in poor condition.
STREETS
N. Triphammer Rd. was patched with winter mix asphalt over the two newly installed
culverts to provide better paving until a permanent paving will be installed this
spring. Pot hole patching was carried out throughout the Village. The roads are
in good repair.
SEWER LINES
The layout of the sewer lines in the Town of Dryden - Meadowlark Road and Cardinal
Drive were inspected in relation to the Dryden sewage treatment contract. A
detailed map of the Dryden sewer district is being sought.
REPORT OF ZONING OFFICER
January 1983
During the last month no zoning permits were issued and only one road opening
permit was issued.
A number of questions have been raised about the operation of the Mobil Station
"Stop N Shop." These were spelled out in a letter from the Zoning Officer (a
copy of which was sent'to Trustees). A representative of the owners will be
present to discuss and hopefully settle this matter at the Board meeting.
Mrs. Wanderstock was notified to apply for a zoning variance for the carport by
January 30 or be subject to a court summons. Mr. Morusty's lawyer was notified
to make a request for a variance by January 12, 1983.
