The Town Clerk's monthly report will be included in the packet: for the abstract and

B Avery reported that the Governor's budget bill contains a provision that will give dog
licensing responsibility to the gowns. If passed as presented, the Department of Agriculture
and Markets will no longer be involved in that process and will not maintain the current dog
license database. There will be no spay /neuter fund (now funded with $3 from each license
issued to an unaltered dog) and no money %%611 be turned over to the counties for dog damages.
Changes are anticipated to take effect January 1, 20111
HIGHWAY /DPW DEPARTMENT
Highway Superintendent Jack Bush gave the board some background on a road
maintenance plan he developed with a Cornell intern after a. presentation at the Cornell Local
Roads Program ten years ago. He is currently working with the Town Attorney on establishing
weight limits on local roads. The department has just completed visual traffic counts on about
50 roads.
Highway Superintendent Jack Bush introduced Steve Messmer of Delta Engineers in
Binghamton, New York. Mr. Messmer explained the program his firm has developed to help
municipalities determine and track damage to roads by use of heavy equipment. The traffic
associated with gas drilling will definitely damage town roads. it is already happening in the
Southern Tier along the Pennsylvania border where roads are being severely damaged.
One of the first efforts specifically addressing the issue of road damage was in Sullivan
County. They put together a consortium of towns and organized and developed a process.
They put: out an RFP for engineering services to help them put together a road use agreement:
permitting program geared in the best interests of their towns. Delta Engineers was selected
and assisted in developing a process and a program intended to protect public assets.
The
process begins (Phase
1) with an analysis
of the
existing condition of town roads,
providing a
0
basis for determining
anticipated and /or
actual
damage. In Phase If, Delta.
Nge 6 uP 13
TB 3 -17 -to
Engineers assists with the adoption of a local law and road use agreement permit process. In
Phase III, Delta otT'ers a web -based road use agreement: processing system.
Atty Perkins said having a baseline on the roads prior to heavy- use is important. J Bush
is in favor of using the services Delta has to offer. Supv Sumner said the board will look at this
and the budget implications and discuss it at the next board meeting.
Community Garden
J Bush introduced Jean Simmons. She and other community members are asking that
the Town provide space for a community garden (about 200' square). They would like to fence
the area and members would have a spot of 10' by 10' for personal garden space. J Bush said
if the board allows it, the area behind the old Tuttle barn would be good and there is parking
nearby. The group would like an area with room for expansion if the project is successful.
J Simmons said it would be good to have some storage space and perhaps they could
use a portion of the barn. The fence will probably not be chain link. There will be rules for
participants such as no use of chemicals. They don't necessarily need running water at this
point, but a rain barrel would be good.
J Bush said there is room out in the area behind the barn and he would be willing to
clear the area. 'There are piles of stuff that need to be removed from the area and it could all be
done at the same time,. la Kwasnowski and J Bush agree that the area behind the pines near
the bio- retention filter would be good.
The group is getting a lot of help from Cooperative Extension. They would like a pile of
woodchips to be used for paths and will probably designate an area for compost.
The board endorsed the concept.. Atty Perkins will talk with Cornell and the City of
Ithaca and see what they do with their community garden areas. J Simmons said she has
their rules and regulations and can provide those. They have advice on forming a 501(c)(3) if
they decide to do so. ZO Slater and Atty Perkins were asked to work with J Simmons on this
project.
J Simmons announced the group will have an organizational meeting on March 251h at
6:30 at the Dryden Community Cafe.
Official Town Map
Atty Perkins advised the board that a public hearing is necessary to complete the
process of approving changes to the official town map due to the road swap agreement with
Tompkins County. The public hearing can be held next month and the resolution authorizing
the Highway Superintendent to sign the Memorandum of Understanding can be adopted after
the public hearing. The board set the public hearing for April 21 at 7:00 p.m.
The board recessed at 9:l$ p.m. and came back at 9:31 p.m.
COUNTY BRIEFING
Martha Robertson reported that they accompanied a group to Albany recently and
visited several offices, including the Governor's office, regarding gas drilling. One scientist at
Cornell is convinced that the carbon footprint of Marcellus Shale drilling is far worse than that

Mike Lane reported that the County's snow removal budget is hurting this }Fear- One

available to repair the Dodge road bridge, and to do Red Mill with local money would take

money for Red Mill Road9 J Bush said r.hat a recent traffic count on Red Mill was 9 vehicles in

ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNER
D Kwasnowski distributed copies of the Draft Stormwater Management flan. It was
submitted to the DEC on the 15c1. The Plan is split into an administrative plan and a program
implementation plan. He asked the board to review and provide comments. Supv Sumner has
reviewed it and said it is excellent.
D Kwasnowski said he understands that several years ago there was a contract: with the
Town of Ithaca for mapping the catch basins in the MS4 areas. He has not seen that map and
has not been able to locate one. The outfalls have to be inspected, so they will do that mapping
when the outfalls are inspected.
D Kwasnowski said he has had recent discussions with DEC about responsibility for
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans in connection with applications for well drilling. Supv
Sumner and Atty Perkins will discuss this.
The next public meeting on the proposed zoning law will be Mondry, March 22, at the
