Avery, Town Clerk *Rick Young, Highway/DPW Superintendent Other Town Staff: Ray Burger, Planning Director *Cassie Byrnes, Secretary to Supervisor *Amanda Anderson, Bookkeeper *Indicates attendance via Zoom Supv Leifer opened the meeting at 6:04 p.m. and board members and audience recited the pledge of allegiance. PUBLIC HEARING 465 NORTH ROAD SPECIAL USE PERMIT Ray Burger explained that this special use permit is for a retail business at 465 North Road. The site plan was reviewed by the Planning Board at their January meeting and they made a few recommendations. Those recommendations are reflected in the draft resolution being considered tonight. It is a Type 2 action so there is no SEQR requirement. Both the original and supplemental materials are available together with the most current site and parking plans in the supplemental materials. There was no comment from the county in the 239 review. Applicant Shana Karn said that she is looking to basically reopen her business, The Second Knob, at this new location. She is aware of the recommendations of the Planning Board. She will put up the parking signage and has ordered the signs. There were no comments from the public, and the hearing was left open at 6:08 p.m. HIGHWAY/DPW DEPARTMENT Highway Superintendent Rick Young reported he had received a permit from DEC, has a building permit, and will begin building a pole barn behind the highway barn. PLANNING DEPARTMENT R Burger said numbers are low on his monthly report because it is not accounting for all building permits and inspections. Next month it will have a complete picture for both January and February. With respect to the Safe Streets for All Program, Cambridge Systematics will begin an engagement plan that will include holding meetings in the individual municipalities. Those will be scheduled in March and April. He added it would be nice to have a representative of the Town Board on that committee and Cl Dravis offered to do that. Page 1 of 9 TB 2-15-24 APPROVED FIRE COORDINATOR Chris O'Connor distributed a comparison of various town fire department and ambulance protection models. We need more people in the departments, but compared to all other towns in the county we are doing pretty well. They are still waiting for the reactivation of the SAM account so they can access funds from the Safer grant.

RESOLUTION #51 (2024) - GRANTING SPECIAL USE PERMIT AND APPROVING SITE PLAN FOR A RETAIL BUSINESS AT 465 NORTH ROAD, TAX PARCEL 27.-1-27.2 Supv Leifer offered the following resolution and asked for its adoption: WHEREAS, A. Shana Karn has applied for a Special Use Permit (SUP) and site plan approval for a retail business to be located at 465 North Road, Tax parcel 27.-1-27.2. The application included sketch plans, SUP worksheet, notice of ground disturbance and Short Environmental Assessment Form. Supplemental materials submitted by the applicant included responses to the subset of the site plan checklist, the expected number of vehicles accessing the site, updated sketch plans and narrative and an updated parking plan. B. The Town Planning Department considers the application complete and in conformance with the requirements of the Code of the Town of Dryden (Code) §270-11 and §270-12, and Page 3 of 9 TB 2-15-24 APPROVED C. The Tompkins County Planning Department has reviewed the application pursuant §239 -1, -m, and-n of the New York State General Municipal Law, and D. In a letter dated January 30, 2024, the Tompkins County Planning Department determined that the proposed action will have no significant county-wide or inter- community impact, and E. Pursuant to the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act ("SEQRA") and its implementing regulations at 6 NYCRR Part 617, the Town Board of the Town of Dryden has, on February 15, 2024, determined the project is a type II action per 6 CRR-NY 617.5(18), which states, reuse of a residential or commercial structure, or of a structure containing mixed residential and commercial uses, where the residential or commercial use is a permitted use under the applicable zoning law or ordinance, including permitted by special use permit, and the action does not meet or exceeds any of the thresholds in section 617.4 of this Part. F. A public hearing was held on February 15, 2024, with public comments registered in the meeting minutes and considered by this board, and G. The Town Board has reviewed this application relative to the considerations and standards found in Code §270-11 for site plan review and §270-12 for Special Use Permit. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS: 1. The Town Board approves the sketch plan documents, submitted with the application and amended with supplemental submissions, as site plan for 465 North Road, conditioned on the following: a. Existing vegetation that partially screens the adjacent residences, and North Road, is to remain undisturbed or manicured to maintain their size and visual screening. b. Permanent bathroom facilities, a toilet and handwash sink, shall be installed within 6 months of SUP approval. c. The applicant shall install the proposed sign in accordance with sign regulations found in Code 270-9.4. d. The applicant shall install a permanent sign stating no parking along the southern side of the access driveway, as well as a permanent sign stating no parking closer to the road, or similar language, on the eastern end of the parking along the north side of the access driveway in order to ensure a 20-foot-wide driveway. e. The applicant shall mark the parking spaces along the northern side of the driveway with 4x4 posts, curb stops or similar method. f. The applicant shall provide potable water for customers via a water cooler or similar method. 2. The Town Board hereby finds that the considerations for approval of the requested Special Use Permit listed in Code Section 270-12 have been met, specifically that: Page 4 of 9 TB 2-15-24 APPROVED a. The proposed use is compatible with the other permitted uses in the Rural Agricultural district and compatible with the purpose of this district as retail businesses are a permitted use in this zone and given the nature of the business and expected traffic at the site the proposed project is not expected to negatively impact surrounding agricultural uses; other businesses have operated at this facility and farm operations have continued in the area immediately surrounding the site; b. The proposed use is compatible with adjoining properties and with the natural and manmade environment, as this project will utilize an existing building with some existing vegetative screening; c. Parking, vehicular circulation, and infrastructure for the proposed use is adequate provided the applicant installs the parking signs, and marks parking spaces as conditioned as part of SUP approval to maintain at least a 20-foot-wide driveway; d. The overall impact on the site and its surroundings considering the environmental, social and economic impacts of traffic, noise, dust, odors, release of harmful substances, solid waste disposal, glare, or any other nuisances has been considered and found to be negligible, based on the expected volume of traffic associated with this business, and the business is not expected to generate excessive noise, dust, odors or release of harmful substances; e. Restrictions and/or conditions on design of structures or operation of the use necessary to ensure compatibility with the surrounding uses or to protect the natural or scenic resources of the Town have been incorporated into the site plan and conditions of the SUP permit; f. The project complies with the requirements for site plan review and conforms to the Town's Commercial Design Guidelines to the maximum extent practicable in that: the site is partially screened from residential uses by the existing landscaping, the proposed sign is low to the ground with proposed plantings at the base, and the project will utilize a developed site and as such no cutting and filling at the site is required. 3. The Town Board, finding that the applicant is in compliance with all other provisions of the Code and other applicable ordinances, approves this Site Plan and Special Use Permit for a retail business at 465 North Road with the Town of Dryden Standard Conditions of Approval as amended August 14, 2008. 2nd Cl Buck Roll Call Vote Cl Vargas-Mendez Yes Cl Buck Yes Cl Dravis Yes Cl Lamb Yes Supv Leifer Yes CITIZENS PRIVILEGE Mike Parker, Freeville Fire Chief- Said he is present with chiefs of the other departments and they are here to talk about the proposed 2024 contracts. There has been no progress to date in completing those contracts. They have spoken with an attorney and are trying to get this resolved and move forward. Town of Dryden residents should be treated equally with respect to fire and EMS response no matter which department's coverage area they are in. The contracts should be similar; that was agreed on before. Departments need to be held accountable for how they respond. They have come up with a contract and will be turning it in to the board for further discussion. Page 5 of 9 TB 2-15-24 APPROVED The departments should have a copy of the financial information turned in, so they can be sure it is correct. They are entitled to a copy. The departments would like an explanation. They want it fair for everyone, for the departments to be held accountable the same, and to protect the residents equally. Mark Bell, Dryden Fire Chief, distributed a proposed revised contract for Neptune Hose. He said the attorney they have been working with has done some research and investigation. They could not answer his question regarding why the contract given to Brooktondale was so different from the rest, when they all provide the same service to town residents. The contract they propose is very similar in terms and conditions to the contract proposed to Brooktondale. Other town departments should not have more terms and conditions placed on them to do the same job. Cl Lamb stated the Brooktondale contract is for considerably less money. M Bell pointed out they are called on to provide the same service. Cl Lamb said he thought that after meetings with the departments, they had agreed on the terms of the contracts as proposed. Cl Lamb suggested Brooktondale could be provided with the same contract as the other departments. M Bell said the attorney felt the contract as proposed addressed more operational aspects, and that if the town seeks to be indemnified from any wrongdoing on the part of the departments, those terms are inappropriate. It can't be both ways. The contract they propose is not exactly as proposed to Brooktondale. Changes from the version provided to them by the town to what they are proposing include financial reporting. For Varna and Etna, they added that the town will provide the Volunteer Firefighter Benefits Law (VFBL) coverage. Dryden and Freeville are covered by their respective villages. There was a wording change regarding the audit requirement, changing it to September from June as it was in prior contracts. June is a bit early to get the audit back from the auditors sometimes. Numbers 17 through 30 are gone from the original proposal. M Bell said the biggest difference is a lot of extra reporting of trainings, call volumes, and a lot more reporting and conditions. They have no issues providing it, but don't feel it should be a contractual thing. The liability falls on them to be sure their members are trained and certified to do the job they are asked to do. They are not paid, but are professional in what they do. They don't want anyone hurt and so they demand the best for their firefighters. They are not necessarily opposed to these new things in the contract, but in their world, things can change in the drop of a hat. It is not always possible physically to respond to all calls; they may be called out a couple of calls simultaneously. But contractually, it says they have to. They already do reporting and would need to know the value of it and what the drive behind the statistics is that are being asked for. It could be that they don't always get good communication about why certain reports are needed. It's not easy and they can't always get it from their reporting software. They have to pull data from different reports and create a spreadsheet. They need relief on some of the reporting, and don't see it warranted as part of the contract. The contract has gotten substantially longer over the last couple of years. Cl Lamb said they were trying to improve the process because they felt there wasn't enough dialogue and understanding between the town as the contracting entity and with whom they are contracting. They wanted more information given the amount of money about which we are talking. The board has a duty to have information for the people we raise taxes from. He is uncomfortable with this dynamic. Hours were spent on this and to now have the Page 6 of 9 TB 2-15-24 APPROVED departments come back and say all those conditions are gone is a disappointment. A lot of time has gone into this. He is concerned about the strategic planning being removed. M Bell said they all saw value when it was discussed. Just because it isn't in the contract, doesn't mean it won't happen. M Bell said they put something together that they thought was fair. M Bell said Neptune Hose provides a certified audit each year at their expense. Cl Buck said the metrics are a way to share and be transparent with taxpayers. She asked that as they work through their strategic planning efforts, it would be good to identify what kind of data the town and taxpayers should know, and then work on ways to provide it that is not a burden. M Bell added that the provision regarding strategic planning was not in the first contract presented to them, but added as a result of them being asked if they were open to doing that and they responded positively. They did see the value of it. Michelle Robinson and Linda Fenner represented the Etna Fire Department. M Robinson said while the town has a fire protection district, the board members are not fire commissioners. All towns in the state are required to contract for fire services. A fire service can become a district or the town contracts for service. The departments are independent contractors and that is stated in the contract. The level of stuff asked for in this contract opens the town up to a level of liability that insurance contracts would not protect the town from. Etna did not receive their proposed contract until December 29. L Fenner said they are proposing a contract that they feel their department, their volunteers, and all departments can adhere to. The contracts should be equal for all departments. They distributed a copy of their proposed contract for Etna with their dollar amount on it. L Fenner asked the board if anyone has ever asked what is going on with fire tax dollars. She offered a pager to board members so they could see if they could respond in a timely manner every time. Mason Jager, Varna Chief, said he appreciates the frustration of the board after the meetings and discussions that were had, but none of their members are contract lawyers. Departments may have agreed to the spirit of the contracts, but they are legally binding and two lawyers have agreed that these agreements overstep what is normally accepted for fire protection districts in the State of New York. They are happy to provide information on their member number, call responses and numbers. He will try to attend more town board meetings to talk about the department's activities and service provided. Their attorneys'concerns had more to do with the operational elements and demands of the contracts. That is exposure on the town's behalf because the town is not allowed to have those firefighter operation elements in the contract. The indemnification called for in the contract would be nullified by telling the departments what to do. If something were to go wrong, the department could say the town made them do it. For years that liability has been with the departments and the chiefs specifically. The chiefs take responsibility for their department and their members and their safety, and the safety of the residents of Varna very seriously. M Jager said he wants to be clear that it wasn't just the reporting aspect, but many of the elements of the contracts were now instructing the departments how to do their job. He can also sympathize about the time spent at the meetings; they were all volunteering their time. He attends many meetings a month as a volunteer fire chief together with other meetings and calls that take him away from work. He is relatively new to the fire service in the Town of Dryden, but has seen a dramatic increase in communication between the town board and the Page 7 of 9 TB 2-15-24 APPROVED departments as well as between departments. At a recent call, all departments were on site. They do work very hard to provide the best service possible. Mike Parker said he assumes the town attorney is looking at the contracts as they've been adjusted and asked whether he addressed the difference in liability and whether he does fire law. He said it isn't about the money; it's about the language in the contract. They should have the same language because the service is the same no matter where that is. He doesn't think it is important that the town knows who is qualified to drive trucks in the department. The town doesn't provide liability insurance; the department does. That should not be a condition of receiving their second check. It's not up to the town; the town is not providing the liability insurance. They are happy to report on their calls and other information, but some of the items required in order to get the funding is another thing. It isn't right, and the language needs to be the same across the board. He appreciates the time and would like to have a few meetings a year. The strategic planning is fine. He'd like to meet to discuss next year's contract and what they are looking to do, but not things like who is qualified to drive a truck. The contract can be negotiated out, but some of the language needs to change. Supv Leifer said the board will need an opportunity to review the contracts just presented. M Bell said the intent was to get them to the board earlier, but it didn't work out. The departments did feel it was important to present them and make comments tonight. Cl Lamb asked whether strategic planning was out of the contracts. M Bell said no, that they saw value in it. M Parker and L Fenner both indicated they are willing to work this out and get the contract to a place where they don't have to do this again next year. ADVISORY BOARD UPDATES Ag Committee - Did not meet. Recreation & Youth Commission - They are working with R Burger toward securing a consultant to consider a development plan for the property behind the town hall. Broadband Committee-Is meeting with attorneys on the structure of the contract with Dave Makar because they need to expand that role now. They will bring him on as a contractor, but then later perhaps as an employee. It would be similar to the way the sewer plant in Ithaca operates. They hired a company as the chief operator because of labor contracts and salary requirements. Planning Board-They reviewed the 465 North Road SUP application and made recommendations that were included in the special use permit conditions approved tonight. They have received robust replies to their RFP for a consultant in connection with the zoning update and have narrowed the number down to three. They are all very different and we will end up with an extremely strong consultant to work with. They understand the goal is to make zoning less of a stick and more of a carrot; a little more permissive rather than negative or positive power. Cl Buck noted there is potential for business growth in the tech corridor and we need to be sure environmental protections are in place. Supv Leifer said with the infrastructure in place, Dryden is probably number one in the area. A subcommittee will make a recommendation at their next meeting, then it will come to the Town Board. Workforce &Affordable Housing-They had a guest, Holly Hutchinson, from Sustainable Finger Lakes who discussed the experience they've had with heat pumps and networking people through the Empower Program for weatherization and other programs. It was useful because they are focusing on locating funding resources to help low-income housing, and in particular mobile housing for weatherization and such. They learned about Page 8 of 9 TB 2-15-24 APPROVED the challenges they face in recruiting people to become involved. They are hoping to have options to move forward next month. Conservation Board- Chair Gian Dodici asked if anyone would be interested serving as Chair, but he will remain as such. They discussed opportunities for engagement and activities by the Conservation Board, and they may be reaching out to DRYC to offer support in deciding how best to utilize the land north of town hall. That may be an opportunity for modeling pollinator friendly plantings or wetland education and things like that. They are interested in providing feedback on the zoning rewrite and are very interested in pollinator friendly language. Tompkins County Environmental Management Council will soon be sending updated UNA maps to municipalities. Climate Smart Task Force-The committee is promoting heat pumps. A webinar entitled Saving Energy and Money in Your Home will be held March 20, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. The webinar will provide a user-friendly overview of the steps to tighten up your home and move to more sustainable heating sources. It will also dive into some of the rebates and incentives that can help pay for these upgrades. This online webinar is geared towards homeowners in Tompkins County and is hosted by the Energy & Climate Change Team at Cornell Cooperative Extension Tompkins County. The event is free and open to the public. In lieu of their regular monthly meeting, they held an Extreme Weather Scenario Workshop on Tuesday evening in the Town Hall and via Zoom. Approximately two dozen folks were in attendance. They broke into groups to discuss potential action steps during four scenarios: severe storms, drought, extreme heat, and flooding. This feedback will be incorporated into our Climate Adaptation and Resiliency Plan (CCARP) by Jerry Sheng from Cornell Cooperative Extension that we continue to work on. The town of Dryden is currently at bronze level and trying to get to silver. We are still the number two town in the state. Future agenda items: There is an application to fill the vacancy on the Ag Committee that the board will act on next month. There will probably be news on South Hill Trail soon. There have been ongoing discussions with NYSEG to get this done, but they are getting close. There will be more items for approval for the Ithaca Area Wastewater Treatment Facility and the infrastructure work that is being done. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 7:28 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Bambi L. Avery Town Clerk Page 9 of 9 PERMANENT WATER LINES EASEMENT AND RIGHT-OF-WAY THIS INDENTURE is made this day of 2024,by and between the Town of Dryden, a municipal corporation under the laws of the State of New York having offices at 93 East Main Street, Dryden, NY 13053, acting for itself and on behalf of the Consolidated Water District SW8,and such additional water districts as may currently exist or will be formed within the Town of Dryden(collectively,the"Grantee"), and Jim Ray Mobile Homes, Inc.,a corporation under the laws of the State of New York and having offices at 9 Newfield Depot Rd.,Newfield NY 14867 (the"Grantor").
