QUESTIONS AND /OR COMMENTS
Linda Roscoe - Tricycle Enterprises this is a woodworking company
which makes cabinets, mill work and cabinets which get
permanently attached to buildings and structures.
Supv Schug - wanted to know if there would be changes to the
exterior of the building.
Linda Roscoe - there would be no changes made.
Clp Roberts - wanted to know how many employees would be working
there.
Linda Roscoe - they would like to build the business up to
employee 16.
Clp Roberts - wanted to know how the business would affect the
neighbors.
Linda Roscoe - they do produce noise when they are running the
machinery, but there is some distance between us and the
neighbors. I didn't think the noise would be any greater than
trucks going down the road. !
Clp
Roberts
- wanted to
know if
they minded having the hours from
7:OOAM
to S:OOPM
Monday
through
Friday.
Linda
Roscoe - we may find
there are occasions
when we would have
to do
some overtime during
the week. The normal
operation of
7:OOAM
to 5:OOPM would not
be a problem with us.
Jack Roscoe - would feel cramped if I had to come and ask the
town board if I could work on a Saturday to meet a production
schedule. I would like to be able to work on a Saturday and if
the neighbors complain about the noise it could be addressed at
that time.
Clp Roberts - wanted to know how the trash would be handled and
if the dumpster would be outside and if it would be shielded.
Linda Roscoe - there would be a dumpster in back of the building �•
and out of site.

Cayuga Press - easement
Atty Perkins - since the town is giving up an interest in real
property the only way the town can dispose of that is the board
has to make a determination that the easement area is not
presently used for town purposes nor is it contemplated to be
used for any town.purposes in the future. In addition the town
board must determine an adequate consideration. The proposal here
is to release from the easement that area of the proposed
The
building within 6 inches of the foundation of the wall.
Press a
consideration of that would be the convey' Y Cayuga
similar amount of easement area to a e oppositelsideoofethe
determined by the town engheetotalt full pamount of the original
easement area maintaining
easement area. Part of the consideration should be that the
foundation for the Cayuga Press building should be made at, least
the depth of the sewer line where it is at the easement area* he
town should not be liable for any undermining of
because of a break in the former easement area.

0 COUNTY BRIEFING
Co. Rep. Lane
- reported the Forest Home bridge project is
under
way. Decision
was made to
postpone the
work on the Comfort
Road
bridge so the
county could
apply for an
industrial access
grant.
This allowed the
county to
add another
bridge to the work
of New
schedule which
will be the
West Dryden
Road bridge over Mill
Creek.
Co. Rep Lane - the planning committee reviewed the progress of
the master plan work at TC3. This is an 8.5 million dollar
project. Currently they are under one half million under budget
and may stay that way.
Co. Rep. Lane - the waterfront study is proceeding for Cayuga
Lake.
Co. Rep. Lane - the government operations committee spent time
discussing problems with the cable television and situations on
cable access.
Co. Rep. Evans - the health and environmental quality committee
will be looking at the scanner accuracy law. They are proposing
fines for accuracy of less than 98 percent. The division of
weights and measure would do this randomly and any business using
• the scanner will be checked periodically. There are also fines
for prices that are incorrect.
Co. Rep. Evans - the flood mitigation program currently has some
concerns about the partnership with the municipalities in the
county and the landowner and what we would do if a particular
municipality chose not to participate in the plan. The county
would like this county wide and accepted by all municipalities.
Co. Rep. Evans - electronic future is on the way to developing a
contractual. They are waiting for the County, BOCES, the city
school district, possibly the hospital, and Cornell University.
They would combine those entities into a single computer network.
Cornell is willing to supply the computer software required..The
next step would be to expand this to the county and town
governments and libraries.
Co. Rep. Evans -
the health department
approved changes in
Article 6 of the
Sanitary Code.
This will
be going to public
hearing and if it
is passed you
will be
looking at Article 8 and
the subdivision
rules. This will
bring
the health code into
compliance with
the requirements
of New
York State.
Co. Rep. Lane - reported on Virgil Creek - the MRCS and Corp. of
Engineers toured the site so the #26 permit will be issued to
• allow the preliminary work to be started.
TBB -13 -96 Page 4
Co. Rep. Evans - the program committees will be reviewing the
county budget for a proposal to the finance committee. The county
has proposed a zero based budget for people asking for special
requests. Apparently it was stated now was a good time to ask for
special requests since there was a 3.8 million dollar surplus
this year. The requests came in at 5.8 million dollars. On
September 11th the county will be holding a forum on the budget.
There will be special invitations sent out and hopefully they
will come and express their concerns about the budget.
COUNCILMAN PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR
Alan Berger,
Chief
of the Varna Dept.
- they
have
outgrown their
present facilities
with M &T bank
on Dryden
Road and
have purchased
plan
land on
Turkey Hill
Road to
build a
new fire
station
there.
Went over the
site plan with
board
members
and guests.
They
plan
on keeping the
site in the
natural
state to
provide
a buffer
zone
to the
neighbors.
Erica Evans - wanted to know what type and how the building was
going to be constructed.
Alan Berger - it will be a Morton pre engineered metal building
pole barn construction.
• Clp C. Hatfield - wanted to know the size of the parcel.
Alan Berger - it is just under 4 acres.
Clp T. Hatfield - wanted to know if they had enough money to move
forward with this project.
Alan Berger -
they
have purchased
the
site. They are
investigating
loans
with M &T bank
and
Tompkins County Trust
Company. They
plan
on financing
this
without asking for any
increase in our
annual
contract.
They
will be asking for
donations from
the
community.
Clp Roberts - wanted to know the plans for the existing building.
Alan Berger - they don't have any. They might be interested in
renting it on a long term basis. A lot depends on what happens to
the Varna Community Assoc. They have been looking into developing
the site for senior citizen housing.
Supv Schug - wanted to know if they had talked to the neighbors
like I asked you to.
Alan Berger - they have just started talking to them. There were
flyers sent out telling what was going on and have started going
door to door.
Supv Schug - wanted to know if they have received any feed back
or problems.
TBB -13 -96 Page 5
• Alan Berger - the
biggest
concern
I have heard
is noise, heavy
truck traffic and
sirens.
They don't
anticipate
a lot
of traffic
because they don't
have that
many
emergencies.
They already
use
Turkey Hill Road
on a lot
of their
calls in the
Ellis
Hollow
area. 50 percent
of their
calls the
trucks are
already
traveling
that road because
they can't
make
the corner at
Turkey
Hill and
Mt. Pleasant.
Clp Roberts - wanted to know if there was any feed back from the
motel owner.
Alan
the
will
Berger -
ones that
maintain
the motel is supportive of them, in fact they are
sold the fire department some of their land. They
an easement to use the spring water that is on the
site.
There is
a house
about 255 feet
south of the
proposed site
and
across the
road are
2 houses and
our driveway
would come
between
the
2
of them.
Erica Evans - was concerned that they were not consulted in the
neighborhood before all of this took place, not that we would
have objected in any way, but it would have just made it a lot
nicer instead of it being presented something that is already
done.
Supv Schug - 6 months ago wh
• mentioned if you think you a
talk to the neighbors. I kno
on the property, and we are
only 6 neighbors there that
you would have the neighbors
didn't.
U
en I met with the fire department I
re going to find a place get out and
w you signed the papers a month ago
all pressed for time, but there are
are close by. I asked you before so
on your side, but eventually you
Erica Evans - it would have been a nicer thing to do.
Supv Schug - I hope the fire company takes into consideration the
possible use of the building that it will be compatible with the
community center.
Don Westcott - owner of Yellow Freight on Route 13 - in June Mr.
Duffet came before the board to ask permission to allow him to
purchase the Yellow Freight building from me. This was accepted
by the town board, but I have learned from the Z.O. Slater that
the road going to the building has not been accepted as a town
road. I am here to request the town board to accept the road
since it was built to town specifications. Gave board members
copies of agreement for them to review that I was going to turn
the road over to the town. I have met with Hwy Supt Gilbert and
everything is done except for the paving. It was inspected every
step they did to make sure everything was done right with that
intent of turning it over to the town. Mr. Duffets attorney will
not let him close on the property until this issue is resolved.

Atty Perkins - wanted to know if the subdivision plat had been
filed.
Z.O. Slater - the subdivision plat was filed in 1993.
Atty Perkins - Mr. Wescott will have to finish the road and then
do the transfer documents. He has never made a formal offer of
dedication.
Atty Perkins - wanted to know why this was different from any
other subdivision.
Z. 0. Slater - I told Mr. Westcott he would have to talk with
the town board since there were three possibilities..Since the
road that is proposed serves no lot that wouldn't be served by an
existing public road. It was my opinion that the town was under
no obligation to take it. They could take it or take it with the
modifications. This would be a board decision and not my
decision. The Planning Board entertained a 9 lot proposed
subdivision and a sketch conference in April of 1993. In June
they had another sketch conference which no reference was made to
the proposed future road. It was still on the plat going down to
the Yellow Freight building. The Planning Board held a
preliminary final plat review the following month. The road
doesn't ever seem to be mentioned again. That is why it is
labeled a proposed road.
Atty Perkins - wouldn't it be proposed if it was built. This is
the plat the Planning Board signed off on.
Z.O. Slater - that is correct. The access of the Yellow Freight
building itself to Route 13 would be difficult. Then again this
could be a driveway.
Supv Schug - wanted to know if the road had been built to town
specs.
Hwy Supt Gilbert - I checked on each step while the road was
being built so it meets specifications.
Z. 0. Slater - Mr. Westcott would have to go back to the Planning
Board and ask for relief from the remaining lots since they were
supposed to be commercial.
Supv Schug - if the board wants to accept it as a town road there
will have to be an accurate survey and a legal description.
Atty Perkins - I can discuss this with Mr. Westcotts attorney on
what needs to be done.

�- Ralph Varn - I am doing some work on Peregrine Hollow. It is part
of the sewer work that I had to do which I had put up a check in
the amount of $13,110.00. We are in the process of doing that
work now and hope to have the work done by Friday. I would like
to request of the town board that they approve a resolution that
lets Mahlon release funds with a letter from Dave Putnam saying
all of the work has been complete.
Atty Perkins - this
is the $13,110.00.
Release of these funds are
subject to approval
by the town
board. The

This
included

Atty Perkins - the terms in which those funds were accepted are

This
obviously

Dave Putnam - no, the work has not been done. The issue of what
has to be done has been resolved.
Atty Perkins - that statement was made on the condition in light
of this letter. This letter is specifically referred to in the
conditions of approval. (see copy of letter from town engineer
dated 11- 16 -95).
Ralph Varn -
the entrance has basically

feet toward
the Reeves
property. The reason
the statement is in
there is if
it stayed
where it was there
was
some talk about
having to do
some kind
of retaining wall
which
would be an extra
cost that the
town did
not want to hold
back
money for that.
Atty Perkins - with respect to that issue the proposal was to
move the center line of the entrance road 3.5 feet east will
eliminate the need for the developer to install a retaining wall
and guide rails.
Atty Perkins - wanted to know if the town had ever signed off on
• the revised plan to move the center line 3.5 feet east. I think
that is why that language is in there to make sure we eventually
received a revised plan which would show the moving of the road.

Supv Schug - suggested Ralph get the work done, get all of the
approvals completed before September 3rd. If at that time the
board can work out a release on good faith the other work that is
going to be done.
ATTORNEY
Atty Perkins - Cortland Paving - Mr. Ottenshots attorney
attempted to withdraw. Pending his being relieved by the court,
you will find on the schedule for examination for Mr. Ottenshot.
I have learned today there has been some activity on the site.
Z.O. Slater - there has been gravel brought in on the weekend and
the following weekend he leveled the site disrupting the drainage
patterns, drainage lines that carried run off water to the creek.
Atty Perkins - wanted to know if he covered up a State culvert or
ditch and if they had been notified.
Z.O. Slater - no they haven't.
Margaret Darchangelo - Mr. Ottenshot is filling in the whole area
which was originally 3 acres of wetland. He has displaced all
kinds of animals and birds that used to live in there.
Atty Perkins - wanted to know the condition of the land today.
Margaret Darchangelo - today about 50 loads of gravel was brought
in from the creek. They have a bulldozer right in the middle of
the creek down on Forest Home Drive.
Atty Perkins - so he is filling the lot and has not made
provision for drainage.
Margaret
Darchangelo - they have been
putting
piles of road
material,
large chunks of concrete and
black
top filling
in the
area for
the last 3 years but never going
to
the edge of
the
property
until the present time. They
are now
moving all
of these
various
piles from where they were to
the very
edges and
covering
it over
with creek material. They have
raised
the land up
now so
it is going
to create a problem.
. Atty Perkins - when all is said and done, he has filled in the
area and he doesn't need a permit to do that.
t C/a
TB8 -13 -96 Page 9
Carol Hoff - wanted to know the usage he has a permit for.
Atty Perkins - he doesn't have a permit since he doesn't need a
permit to fill. He needs a permit if he takes material there and
then removes it. If he continues to do that as a practice then he
would need a permit. I am not sure if there are any DEC permits
needed.
Carol Hoff - if he is filling in and building up to the point
where it is flooding on the next door neighbor. There has to be
something you can do to prevent this from happening. He has built
that area up at least 5 feet above the neighbors driveway.
Atty Perkins - it may very well be what he has done is actionable
by a neighbor as a nuisance. Unless there is some way that the
town can have jurisdiction over his activity such as when he was
taking material there and then removing it. The town has
jurisdiction over that because is a use of the property. The town
doesn't have any jurisdiction over his filling the property
unless the town actually has a proposal before it for
development. He may need a DEC permit and the town engineer can
check on that.
R
w
Dave Putnam - I can also check on the property in the morning to
see what the site looks like.
• 'Atty Perkins - it sounds like he has created a nuisance. Water
courses, you do have rights to use the water, but you can't do it
to the detriment to the neighbor or you can't create a situation I
where it impacts your neighbor. This would be a private nuisance.
Margaret Darchangelo - they moved in 35 loads of gravel from the
creek on Saturday the 10th.
Dave Putnam - they are dredging the creek near Cornell
Plantations which is done yearly.
Z.O. Slater - it is almost like he is converting from a storage
yard to a fill activity to avoid any further activity with the
town.
Carol Hoff - I heard the Town of Dryden was going to be taking
some of this fill to repair the flood damage in the town.
Hwy Supt Gilbert - that is true we did take some a couple of
weeks ago.
Margaret Darchangelo - wanted to know what the civil action was
that was being taken.
• Atty Perkins - the civil action was to enjoin his use of the
property as a material storage yard until such time he had
applied for and obtained a special permit. He started that
process and then quit. Henry was working with him when he was
going through the application process. When he quit this process
and obviously wasn't going to continue we started up the lawsuit
again and that is where we are right now.
i

TB8 -13 -96 Page 10
• Atty Perkins - it sounds to me he is filling the lot in.
Margaret Darchangelo - he is doing the work on Saturday from
7:OOAM until 6:OOPM across from where I live. The dust, dirt,
fumes from the diesel and the noise is terrible. I don't think
that has to go on. There has to be some recourse for people who
live that close. I didn't move in on him, he moved in on me. I
have been there since 1964. He should have never been permitted
to have that piece of property.
Supv
Schug - I
remember that property
being a wetland 20 years
ago
and now it
is all filled in. How
long do we have to wait to
keep
him from
working on Saturday and
Sunday.
Atty Perkins - there is no authority to stop him.
Dave Putnam - the only authority that might slow him down is that
I can call DOT tomorrow since they were spreading mud and water
all over the road.
Margaret Darchangelo - they have built an island in the middle of
the creek
and a roadway leading
from the pumping
station so
that
the large
shovel, bulldozer and
trucks
can go in
the middle
of
the creek
and load the trucks as
fast
as they can.
There are
at
least 2 trucks
coming and going
every
10 minutes.
There is
no
reason for
that to continue. He
has no
business being
there
as
far as I am
concerned. He should
have
never been
allowed to
go in
there and
do what he is doing, not
as
close as he
is to the
other
houses and
where people are living.
If
I could afford
it I
would
move.
Atty Perkins - the only thing Henry can do is to site him under
the zoning laws a violation on prior activity. We don't have any
jurisdiction on what he is doing now.
Z.O. Slater - what he is doing now is within the guidelines.
Supv Schug - questioned why it took 3 to 4 years of him violating
the zoning rules and we are still trying to find out who his
lawyer is. Questioned why it hasn't moved through the court
faster.
Atty Perkins - our policy with every case like this is first
compliance. Last fall and into January and February he was
working on a special permit application. I am not sure when that
stopped.
Z.O. Slater - that was 18 months ago, the board by resolution
authorized to get an injunction for using the property. He is
very good at ducking the system.
Supv Schug - why has it taken this long to get to this point. I
don't think he has acted in good faith at all.
TB8 -13 -96 Page 11
Atty Perkins - the board passed a resolution to commence an
action and his attorney, Atty Shaw was working with Henry on an
application for a special permit. When that system broke down we
then started the litigation process. We have been trying to get
the discovery completed for the last S or 6 months. That would be
to stop him from using the property as a material storage yard.
Supv Schug
- suggested for
Dave Putnam
to check on the location
of the culverts
and where
the water is
going.
Supv Schug - RMS Gravel - received notice State DEC wants to act
as Lead Agency.
Supv Schug - questioned the culvert under Mott Road that RMS
Gravel would be using.
Dave Putnam - there are some concerns the town would have to have
as to ownership of the culvert as to whether the town is going to
own it and let him use it or he is going to own it and get an
easement from the town.
Supv
let
Schug - thought it
him maintain it and
would be
pay the
better to give him the
town so much a year to
easement,
pay for
the
removal of it. There
is also
the question of liability.
Dave Putnam - you could put a gate on one end and the other end
would be about 8 feet in the air.
Supv Schug - was concerned about the liability of this project.
Asked Hwy Supt Gilbert if they were far enough from the road
where there would not be any change in the road ditches or where
there will have to be guardrails.
Dave Putnam - the berm will be put back on the north side and
where it comes in the field, you can have less than a 2 on 1
slope all the way out to the end of the culvert and have it
graded which is less than a guiderail would require.
Supv
Schug
- requested
Atty Perkins to put together documents for
the
culvert
concerning
a bond.
Supv Schug - requested Z.O. Slater to get all paper work filled
out for the special permit so that a public hearing can be
scheduled.
Z.O. Slater - we have 30 days to respond from the date of issue.
I will let DEC know tomorrow.
