She is a motorcycle enthusiast, but it has been her experience that motorcycle repair shops do become social clubs and hangouts. Her concern is that getting the motorcycles to the repair shop they are going to have to be driven to and from the repair shop. Game Farm Read is a motorcyclist dream. When they moved to Ithaca and looked for a place with peace and quiet they said Game Farm Read will be great for motorcycles. Repaired bikes will go for a test ride and Game Farm Road is exactly where she would go. All of the people that live can Game Farm Road are either elderly people or post graduate students. There is a large number of heavy farm machinery that use that read can a regular basis. This is a very narrow road, and there are deer, and a bird sanctuary there. Should Garde Farm Road become a test road for motorcycles they would riot continue to live there any more. Hamilton A 1 1 part - any contribution of his endeavor made to the noise will be a drop in the bucket to the noise that is there nose. this is riot a noise issue, motorcycles are hard to see, motorcycles rcycles are practically invisible to all drivers. Safety is her concern ri ot the noise, • Hamilton Al 1 part - does not see the safety issues as pertinent on her part, but respects her opinion. G 1 m Roberts - wanted to know if this was just f o r motorcycles and not for any ether vehicles. Also, the number of customers per day. Hamilton A l l part - yes, it Would only be for motorcycles. He would guess about 25 customers on a good day. Harold Simons- wanted to knew if there would be motorcycle rallies held there. Hamilton Allport - no, he has not considered this and does not foresee it. Supv Schug - this could be a condition in the permit if it is granted, that there will riot be any rallies held or started from there. ? ? ? ?? - this business you plan or, operating at 802 Dryden Rd. is a lot different than the business you are operating now from your home. You are planning to advertise, have a sign and expand? �3v TB3 -8 -94 Page 3 13 Erica Evans - anything new like this, we should think about adding to what already is there. If we can keep a good balance for safety then we should move in that direction. Supv Schun - you are asking the board to dog something they have no control over. It is a state highway in front of this proposed used business. Supv Schug - wanted to know the hours he would be open for - business.

The proposal was accepted in connection with applying for environmental quality act funds and utilizing these funds for certain stabilization and restoration i� �n � �f the West Dryden Community Center. The town has been negotiating the form of the contract for a few weeks. The form of the contract is in satisfactory wry f� arm. However, because � �f the proposal sal � �f Mr. Stearns there are a couple of areas which you need to make some decisions. One has to do with sub surface coedit il: ins. The architect in his agreement specifically disclaims any responsibility for any unforeseen sub surface conditions ions that might be present at the site. His concern is since part of the problem has already been identified is if there has been a failure of any footers or lack thereof that part of the funds or a substantial' amolint of the funds are going t• � be used to remove stone, PO Ur footers and rebuild the foundation. The architect is saying don't t c• Mme back t• i him if we find that we can't do this because the sub soil conditions will not permit that kind of load bearing constrUctic_in. The architect has requested the town engage a drilling company to do some sub surface testing around the foundation � if the building to determine what the soil conditions area Atty Perkins felt this is something the town board co=uld take a chance on. • Clm C. Hatfield - that building was put up 100 years ago on poured footers, he can't see putting money into drilling t• � see what the gr%OL(nd is. The rest of the beard agreed. Atty Perkins - the Wither issue is the hazardous materials testing. The architect has used the limit of the law in requiring the town agree to � indemnify and hold hire harmless from any claims by any person including the costs of defending such claim arising out of claimed exposure to or deleterious health effect from asbestos, toxic materials or waste in any of its various forms as defined by the environmental protection agency in connection with the work performed as part of the owners program. Atty Perkins - this is an area which is great form litigation. Every owner has an obligation to provide a safe work place. If there is a claimed exposure or an injury to something like this, the owner is the one responsible. The architect is stating that if there is asbestos there and it gets disturbed during this program and someone claims ex pos ure, the architect will not be responsible but the town will be. There is a provision in the general o b 1 i gat i ons law which states no architect can insulate himself from liability with respect to his plans or his drawings. There is also the issue of lead paint and its removal. This should also be a concern. • './lo i 3� TB3 -8 -94 Page 7 • Atty Perkins - felt a limited environmental analysis should be done with respect to:, those areas which are going to be disturbed as part of the project. If there is no problem then it would be ;just the usual precautions that have to be written into any contract. If there are any hazardous materials found the town would be back to square one as to what you can do with the pro j ect . RESOLUTION #96 ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS WEST DRYDEN COMMUNITY CENTER Clm T.

He is confused as to why his budget was cut 10 per cent. Supv Schug - Jack Miller is saying the same as the school board, if you are not going t� � pass the budget we will Cut Out the things that are needed instead of cutting back on the • administrators. Co. Rep. Evans - it is going to be where the priorities go. What you want to:, pay for and what you don't want t� � pay for. Are you willing to pay higher taxes for what you want. Supv Schug - this town board has a l ot of respect for what they do, but we also have a hand on what they do and make them responsible. Supv Schug - he doesn't mind supporting the firemen and sending a resolution to the county to say we should fund this. His question is has anyone looked at the department to see what Jack. Miller is doing. Co. Rep. Evans - the health and safety issue is a lot more critical dispatchers, and one vehicle. than a lot of others. Unless the county can get their act together and look. k. at the total budget it will continue to be the same as you are seeing here. Dave Putnam - Jack Miller's office consists of himself, a secretary, c dispatchers, and one vehicle. They do not have a lot of programs and they occupy a space in the central fire station in the city. L] /Va • • • TB3 -8 -94 Page 11 Supv Schug - wanted to know if Co. Rep.
