Attorney Newman reported his conclusion that there was no escape from the two year requirement on selling bonds for projects financed temporarily by bond an- ticipation notes, such as now being done on the fire station and sewer projects. Therefore Fire Station bonds at least must be sold by October 1957. There is presently the possibility of State legislation providing for temporary financing for a five year period, assuming that there is some redemption on the notes each year. Mr. Newman stated he had been retained to prepare the legal papers for the incorporation of the proposed Northeast Water District. It was felt that the more recent cooperative study and authorized preliminary engineering plans for both sewer and water to this area, as well as the northeast section of the Village and the Tompkins County Airport made it desirable to incorporate the Northeast District for both water and sewer, and to determine the map boundaries on that basis. In the Liberman condemnation, since Mr. Liberman has as yet not properly filed for the appeal, it was VOTED to authorize Attorney Newman to prepare the necessary papers for a Notice of Motion to Dismiss Appeal and file them with the Appellate Division 3rd Department, Albany. 5.
