• To: The Dryden Town Board Members
This letter is in response to the application for SPECIAL PERMIT for Melvin
Scholes, 782 Wood Road, Groton, to operate a Farm and Tractor Repair Commercial
Garage.
We
would like
to take
this opportunity to
address the
evaluation criteria listed
on
the Special
Permit
Application, page 2,
paragraph
2.
B) This is a rural residential neighborhood with 3 properties within 200' of the
Project property, 2 residences in close proximity to the property line, 5
additional homes within 1/8 of a mile radius, there are 2 existing commercial
garages on this section of Wood Road within 1 mile of each other, this location
would be in the center of this mile stretch. It is a quiet, conservative, family
oriented neighborhood that works hard at maintaining and improving the appearance
of their homes and properties.
Farm equipment repair involves large equipment with many substantial parts, these
broken parts require disposal, which involves a large cost and difficult task to
find an accommodating landfill. This can encourage an accumulation of these large parts;.
The intensity of the impact of the neighborhood would take into consideration
a variety of factors, from, If evening and weekend hours would be in effect- to-
tractors on the road for test runs- to- property and resale values dropping.
•

69,5'.
C) The equipment would require transport through use of large, heavy vehicles, a
successful garage would %courage volume. The noise generated by these vehicles
and a poorly running tractor being worked on varies from heavy smoke,fumes and
backfiring just to name a few, and it would be fregent.(Even a good running
tractor running for long periods of time makes a great deal more noise than a car or
truck.) Consider the amount of dust generated on an all dirt drive and the amount of
mud drawn out on the town road with heavier equipment.
D) The West Dryden, Caswell, Bone Plain, Wood Road area is slowly but steadily enjoying
an influx of people willing to clean-up and restore this area in the Town of Dryden.
This section of Wood Road is an extreme example of this attempt at community
development and in turn generates an increase in property values. Many prospective
property buyers will find a farm equipment repair a strong deterrent for purchase
of surrounding properties.
E) Addressing the existing number of vehicles within view residing on the property at
this time leads one to believe that there would not be a large amount of area
available without creating more of an eyesore.
There are always a
number of sensitive issues to be
addressed before granting a
Special

of ours.

Melvin Scholes - he has already spoken ti,i Henry about building a

Andy Moer 1 e i n, 69C.) Wood Rd - a 1 1 he car, say from his own
experience is that once a special permit has been issued any
enforcement is the responsibility of the neighbors. Complaints
have to be made. For example Bill Sherwood has an 8nOC)AM to
8 s c 0PM r.1peration arid 2: [ 0AM is riot uncor,lrilon. The number of
vehicles in His lot was supposed to be limited ti -.1 10. It is not
uncor,irlon that there are many more cars, at least 14 cars. We went
through the planning process exactly like this and all of the
restrictions that were put on his permit have been completely
ignored. We came before you at that point stating that they had
some concerns about any more special permits being issued in
their neighbi_irhr.i od until the problems in their neighborhood be
controlled and dealt with. There is a variety r. if zoning
vii plat ii -.1r,s in their neighborhood right r,• iw that should be looked
at and dealt with before any rni_ire special permits are granted.
Mr. Schr_i1es does have his cars covered now arid he has a very nice
garage, but he can't say anything specific to the situation that
faces you know except that enfi .-ircement becomes the respizinsibility
of the neighbors.

1992 Summer Program Considerations
"At -Risk Students"
• Dryden Central School
The Dryden Central School District has made a concerted effort, in a more formal
manner, over the past three years to address the needs of students considered
"At- Risk ". "At- Risk" has been used to imply a concern for young people who might
be in danger of completing their secondary school diploma requirements.
�1
During the 1989 -90 school year the District was part of a two county (sixteen
school districts) specially funded project entitled The Liberty Partnership
Program. The special State funds for this project have continued through the -
current school year and there is expectation the funding will continue for
1992 -93 (with a reduced allocation). In addition to the support received from
L.N.P. the District has also had the good fortune to receive support from United
Way, Town. of Dryden Youth :.Serv=ices, Special Legislative Grant (sponsored by
Assemblyman Luster), Federal Grant monies (Drug Free Programs) and some donated
funds.
The District has attempted to blend those funds with General Budget funds to
maximize program at reduced costs. Monies have been used to support matching
fund opportunities thus making the best use of all funds available. The effort
has also been made to share services, facilities, and personnel wherever possible
to reduce duplication of aforementioned items. The benefits derived beyond
services to the youngsters have been - better inter agency communication, sharing
of knowledge and skills, improved planning of programs, and an increased
cooperative spirit, as well as a more conscious fiscal management plan.
The school focus has been primarily in the education setting. A major thrust has
been in working to improve basic skills (Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Science,
etc.). Incorporated with the academic approach is a concentrated effort to work
on social skills, good health practices; decision making, problem solving, coping
skills, time management, motivation, self esteem, and better home participation.
The district budgets monies to cover most of the personnel costs for the various
programs noted below. Where other funds are available these monies are used to
cover some personnel costs as well as materials /supplies and special event
expenditures. The greatest need for additional funding is in the area of
transportation for the summer programs. Because summer school transportation
,received no state aid these costs become somewhat significant. For a number of
years the District has made efforts to share in transportation routing and costs
for summer school and summer recreation programs: More recently (1990) there was
a need to increase transportation services (Harford area) and the district became
the prime provider of transportation expenses. There has-been an effort to
cooperate with Town and Village programs where possible to reduce all expenses
for all concerned. This has been a rather successful venture and the desire to
continue such an activity remains for the summer of 1992. The possibility of
adding an additional route to provide transportation for the Ellis Hollow area
residents is quite real. This would provide recreational opportunities for
youngsters in this area of the Town of Dryden.

1992 Summer Program Considerations cont. -2-
• The summer school program at Dryden has been a program for District Residents
only. The State Education Department approves programs in specific ways. LThere
is a Regional Summer School Program (Grades 7 -12) sponsored by Tompkins Cortland
Community College). Most Districts operate special programs for students at
elementary, middle, or high schools (e.g. Driver Education, Enrichment, Reading,
Mathematics, etc.). Non- residents of the Dryden Central School District have had
limited admission to District Summer Sessions. There are some specific
restrictions applied to programs as well as tuition charges for non - residents.
Admission is not impossible but in many cases not realistic because of the
specific nature of programs - established often to meet the needs of the
District's educational plan.

New student /community population has presented some unique experiences for
school staff. English As A Second Language Program originally encompassing
approximately 35 students K -12 had increased our staff needs and raised our
levels of sensitivity to a completely new set of needs.
We have added staff members and have sought assistance from present staff
to construct a program which will educationally and socially benefit our ESL

3. Each young person will work 5 hours /day, Mon -Fri, from 9:30 AM -
3:00 PM (2 hr. lunch), for a total of 125 hours for the summer.;
• 4. Group size: 8 ( male and female, if possible).
5. We will provide staff from our Outing Program to supervise the
project.
6. Participants should be 14 -17 years of age, and will need working
papers, social security cards, and parent permission.
7. We can provide certain equipment and tools such as hammers, saws,
shovels, etc.
8..For 1992,.we would like to be more involved in the process for
selection of participants. We would propose that we participate in
the hiring process.
9. We will provide the educational component, including safety
training.
109 YB staff are certified in First Aid and will have a First Aid.
Kit on site.
11. For 1992, we would like to add a recognition luncheon or picnic
upon completion of the project as a new component.
Some of our expectations of the Dryden Youth Commission:
1. Primary responsibility for coordinating the hiring process,--_
advertising and paper work. Clarification by March 15_,- -- as--to_ who .will -3 -
be responsible for these aspects of the program and as to prospects
for office /phone availability. For 1992, we would like to see the
application process streamlined.
..2. To help decide what and where the project will be and help with
securing the necessary approvals from local officials. . .
3. For 1992 we would propose that advertising be fully in place by
April 15. We.would like to have an opportunity to review posters and
ads by April 1 to assure that they include i_mportant.information._.such
.
as: applicants will need Social Security #-'s, working papers-, -etc:
4. Funds for youth salaries at minimum wage ($4925 for the summer of
92), fringe benefits, and a proposed new Crew Leader. We envision
this person being an older teen from the Dryden /Freeville area-. (See
attached.budget)..We will prepare a draft of,a job description for

�7. The County Youth Bureau contracts with the Ithaca Youth Bureau to
provide intensive services to diverse groups that include "at.risk"
youngsters. The Ithaca Youth Bureau therefore expects :that this
project will also include youth from this -population*:,..
Some topics for further discussion:
1. Technical assistance if the project is "heavy duty," or requires
• safety inspections or code inspections.
2. Emergency medical forms, procedures.

•
3. Development of a time line for planning the project; staff or
volunteer liaison from the Dryden Community should be identified
soon, project and site should probably be chosen and the necessary
approvals obtained during March.
4. A secure storage space near the job site for storing materials
and tools would be helpful.
5. Participants will probably have to arrange their own
transportation to and from the job site. The Ithaca Youth Bureau may
be able to provide a van from time to time for educational field
trips, etc.
6. The schedule (# of hours per week, etc.) or the # of participants
could be modified, but we should make any changes before we begin to
advertise the positions.
7. We would propose that we jointly interview and select the Crew
Leader.
8. Is there any chance that the participants could be paid weekly
instead of every two weeks?
Please give us a call if you have any questions. We're looking
forward to working with you again on this exciting partnership.

final training session.
• Follow U12. Camp fire does not provide any follow up to ascertain youth or
