t C. Residents Dr. Sutton and S. Holt of Sunset Drive appeared before the Board V
concerning the request to the.Board of Trustees from the Renwick Heights Sewer
District that they:connect to the sewer line in Renwick Heights when made available.
Mr. F. Ligouri of the County Board of Health spoke in favor of the request
stating the basis should be "the availability of sewers° not on adequacy of a
septic tank drainage field and that municipal boundaries should not effect dee-
isions. He thoughtit was up to the Trustees to require the property owners to
connect.
The residents felt they were being forced to support the Renwick Heights
sewer costs, which were going to be considerably higher than'Cayuga Heights charges
and were costs of a municipality outside of the one in which they resided. The
Board of Trustees questioned the justification and the legality of requiring
such connections. .No action was taken.
Village Tree Warden Pimentel reported that he was not recommending the
spraying of Village trees for Dutch elm disease because of its very doubtful
effectiveness, when all. trees are not treated, and was suggesting substitution
of elm with other trees now so that when elms died other trees would have a start.
After consideration of the objections raised and the factors in favor.includ-
ing the conviction of the Trustees that the University would never sell the land
and would live up to the understanding as to the use of the land aad- we3#ve
-up-t- stertdIng -as to the wse of *h it was moved by Trustee Grant, .
and seconded by Trustee O'Connor and unanimously .
