IN THE MATTER OF THE PETITION OF D&A
PROPERTIES FOR ANNEXATION BY
THE VILLAGE OF DRYDEN OF LANDS IN THE TOWN OF DRYDEN
BEING TAX PARCEL NUMBER
38.-1-30.11
FINDINGS, RESOLUTIONS,AND ORDER OF THE
TOWN OF DRYDEN PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 17 OF THE NEW YORK STATE GENERAL
MUNICIPAL LAW
A Petition (the "Petition") having been filed by D&A Properties, Inc. for the annexation of
certain property in the Town of Dryden to the Village of Dryden, and a joint public hearing of the
governing Boards of the Town of Dryden and the Village of Dryden having been held on April 10,
2025 in accordance with Section 705 of the General Municipal Law of the State of New York, the
Town Board of the Town of Dryden hereby makes the following findings and thereupon adopts the
following resolutions and order based upon such findings, all in accordance with Section 711 of
the General Municipal Law of the State of New York:
FINDINGS
1. The Petition of D&A Properties, Inc. (hereinafter the "Petitioner") dated February
11, 2025 for the annexation of Town of Dryden Tax Parcel Number 38.-1-30.11 was filed in the
offices of the Town Clerk of the Town of Dryden on February 24, 2025. A copy of the Petition is
attached hereto as Exhibit A.
2. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 704 of the General Municipal Law of the
State of New York (hereinafter the "General Municipal Law"), the Village of Dryden (hereinafter
the "Village") caused notice of the joint public hearing to be published in the Ithaca Journal, the
official newspaper of the Village, on March 15, 2025.
3. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 704 of the General Municipal Law of the
State of New York, the Town of Dryden (hereinafter the "Town") caused notice of the joint public
hearing to be published in the Ithaca Journal, the official newspaper of the Village, on March 15,
Page 5 of 10
TB 6-12-25
DRAFT
2025.
4. The Village caused a copy of the notice of joint public hearing to be mailed to the
Petitioner (Petitioner allegedly being the sole owner of property within the territory proposed to
be annexed) on March 11,2025.
6. The Village also caused a copy of the notice of joint public hearing to be mailed to
the Dryden Central School District on March 11,2 02 5.
7. The joint hearing of the Village and Town, as the two governing boards of the
involved municipalities,was held on April 10, 2025 in accordance with the notices published.
8. In attendance at the joint hearing were (i) the Mayor of the Village, the two
Trustees of the Village, the Village Clerk/Treasurer and (ii) the Town Supervisor, the four
members of the Town Board, and the Town Clerk.
9. Natalie S. French, Attorney for the Village, presided at the hearing by agreement
of the members of the participating Boards.
10. The Petitioner did not appear and no comments were received during the meeting.
No representative from the Dryden Central School District spoke at the hearing.
11. Neither the Town nor the Village received written comments prior to the public
hearing.
12. Petition appears to have been properly signed by "the owners of a majority in
assessed valuation of the real property in such territory assessed upon the last preceding
assessment roll of, or utilized by, the local government or governments in which it is situated" as
provided by Section 703 of the General Municipal Law of the State of New York, that being the
Petitioner, the sole owner of all property within the territory and thereby
fully qualified as the signatory of the Petition. The Petition likewise appears (i) to have attached
thereto the required certificate of the assessor responsible for the preparation of the assessment
roll certifying the foregoing, and (ii) to have been properly authenticated as required.
13. By email following the Joint Public Hearing, Attorney French asked the
Petitioner's representative, Brian Grose, Fagan Engineers & Land Surveying, Inc, for the
Page 6 of 10
TB 6-12-25
DRAFT
capacity of the signor of the Petition. Mr. Grose stated that Benjamin P. Whittmore, signor of
the Petition, has the following title, Vice President of D&A Properties and the President of Don
Gowan Inc., dba Home Central.
14. If the subject territory is annexed, the Town will continue to receive Town
property taxes except to the extent that ownership of any portion of the property is held by a
tax exempt entity.
15. If the territory is annexed as proposed, municipal services such as public water
that are not currently available through the Town will be available from the Village. In addition
thereto, the extension of such services to the property proposed to be annexed will very likely
(i) enable Petitioner to pursue its goal opening a retail establishment at that site, thereby
encouraging employment and economic stimulus in the Dryden community, (ii) enhance the
provision of such services to properties nearby, (iii) better coordinate delivery of municipal
services as currently extended by contract to portions of the Town, (iv) enhance the ability of
the Village to improve fire protection to the Village and Town, (v) provide a more cost effective
way to maintain and extend such services by spreading such cost over a larger number of
taxpayers, and (vi) promote continued intermunicipal cooperative efforts between the Village
and the Town. All such potential benefits may not be available and/or realized if the proposed
territory is not annexed.
16. The proposed annexation will allow the planned Village extension of municipal
services to move forward with substantial infrastructure improvements, the cost of which would,
in whole or in part, be paid for by the developer or developers of the annexed lands. Such
potentially cost-free infrastructure extensions and improvements would be very beneficial to the
taxpayers of the Village and could likewise provide direct and indirect benefits to the Town.
17. The improved municipal services and related infrastructure improvements
anticipated from the annexation and subsequent creation of Petitioner's business operations will
very likely result in increased assessment valuations for the annexed property and additional
properties adjacent thereto. Therefore, it is anticipated that the Village,Town and Dryden Central
Page 7 of 10
TB 6-12-25
DRAFT
School District will receive increased property tax revenues from such properties and derive an
increased tax base and the resulting benefits to all Village, Town and School District taxpayers.
18. The zoning and use of the property proposed for annexation appears to be
consistent with the zoning and general plan of the Village, and any such uses and expansion
projects will be subject to the zoning and subdivisions regulations of the Village and all
environmental review procedures related thereto.
19. The anticipated continued use and contemplated expansion of the improvements
on the property proposed for annexation may serve to (i) enhance and grow the commercial areas
within the Village and (ii) provide jobs and other economic benefits to both the Village and Town.
20. To the extent applicable to the Village,as the municipal entity in which the subject
property (currently a part of the Town) will be annexed, the Village has acknowledged that it will
be bound by (i) the provisions of subdivision 1 of Section 707 of the General Municipal Law as to
the disposition of real and personal property, if any, owned by the Town, and (ii) the provisions
of subdivision 1 of Section 708 of the General Municipal Law as to the assumption by the Village
of its apportioned share of indebtedness and/or contract or other liabilities, if any, for which the
Town is liable. No agreements have been entered into by and between the Village and the Town
related to the foregoing matters.
RESOLUTIONS
NOW, THEREFORE, based upon all of the foregoing findings, it is hereby:
RESOLVED, that Petitioner's Petition substantially complies in form and content with
Article 17 of the General Municipal Law; and it is further
RESOLVED, that the proposed annexation described in said Petition is hereby deemed
to be in the overall public interest; and it is further
RESOLVED, that the proposed annexation as described in said Petition is hereby
approved by the Village Board of Trustees; and it is further
Page 8 of 10

ORDER
HEREBY ORDERED,that copies of the foregoing findings, resolutions and determinations
set forth therein, all of which are hereby incorporated by reference into this Order, together with
the Petition, notice of public hearing, written objections, if any, and testimony and minutes of
proceedings taken and kept on the hearing, be filed in the offices of the clerks of the Village and
Town as the affected local governments.

Phase 1 Zoning Rewrite - The Zoning Advisory Group (ZAG) has provided the
Town Board members with the scope summary and Phase 1 plan. Cl Lamb said the group
has taken the scope of work and adjusted it to fit more precisely what is to be done in the
first phase of the zoning rewrite. It is important for the community to know that this is not
the complete package of zoning, and there are some pressing needs to be addressed first.
One is a moratorium currently in place that expires at the end of this year. This
recommendation will go to the consultant and come back to the board. It is not the
complete document, but guidelines for the consultant.
The committee is attempting to modernize the zoning so that it is readable for the
general public and to make clear what exactly they are trying to do with the zoning update.
Cl Lamb thanked the committee and others who have participated in the process for being
so diligent.
John Kiefer, Craig Anderson, and Chris Morrissey of the Planning Board were
present. J Kiefer did a lot of research on the battery storage systems issue and the group
has identified locations in the town where it might be possible to locate such a facility. J
Kiefer said the Governor had formed a committee to study best practices for battery
storage systems. They published recommendations, and some of those were put into this
document.
Cl Vargas Mendez, who also serves on the Affordable and Workforce Housing
Committee, thanked J Kiefer and ZAG for their work and for supporting most of the input
of the housing committee. He said he understood this is a first step, asked if there would
be more time for additional comments, and was told there would be.
The consultant will take this document, there will be a 2-3-month process to
address the items in the scope, and then a response will be provided to the town.
Martha Robertson said the housing committee, after going line by line through the
audit, had offered additional comments and she would like the document from that
committee folded entirely into the phase one document. There would then be a
comprehensive document for the consultant to work with. Some of the housing committee's
comments were left out and she would like them included now rather than later.
After discussion and comments that the advisory group's process should be
respected and that the items of concern can be addressed later, there was consensus to
move the document forward as it is.

ADVISORY GROUP
Cl Lamb offered the following resolution and asked for its adoption:
RESOLVED, that this Town Board hereby accepts the recommendations of the
Zoning Advisory Group and that they be advanced to the consultant as soon as possible
with instructions to prioritize the moratorium for data processing and crypto mining.
2nd Supv Leifer
Supv Leifer said Nathan VanWhy will be leaving Coughlan &, Gerhart to open his own
practice at the end of the month and has proposed a retainer agreement with the town.
Coughlin & Gerhart have provided a similar proposal. The board will review them and take
action next week. Supv Leifer said he thinks the town may want to contract with them
both, and that continuity is important.
Town Hall will be closed next week on June 19 for the workday in observation of
Juneteenth. However, because there are three public hearings scheduled, the board
meeting will be held on the 19th at 6:00 p.m. Cl Lamb explained this was an oversight,
and it is not a lack of respect.
The board moved into executive session at 6:52 p.m. to discuss current litigation.
No action was taken, and the meeting was adjourned at 7:20 p.m.
