PLEASANT MOUNTAIN SUBDIVISION EXTENSION REQUEST
Joseph Lalley did not find the request unusual due to the expense of development, and this
is a good use of the land
Richard Turecek was concerned that the applicant wasn't present and is requesting
another extension. He fells that the Board is not here to protect the contractor but to protect the
property owners within the community. The developer should be here to justify why he needs
another extension and update the Board with the progress that has been made.
Gordon Deibler was in favor of granting the extension, to give the developer ample time
to complete the project rather then have to reapply and go through the same steps again with the
Board.
Erica Evans stated that the developer has complied with all of the boards request
developing the subdivision.
JOSEPH LALLEY MOVED TO GRANT THE EXTENSION FOR A YEAR,
SECOND BY GORDON DEIBLER
Discussion:
Vote: Yes (4) Joseph Lalley, Gordon Deibler, Erica Evans and Barbara Caldwell
No (1) Richard Turecek
Abstained (1) Martin Christofferson
Chair Barbara Caldwell stated the next meeting for NESTS is Thursday August 27, 1998
from 5:30 to 8:30 PM. Discussion will probably be on the cross connector proposals. Two of the
proposals will have an impact on the Town of Dryden. One of the routes comes in from 79 near
Caroline School on Thomas Road, comes down Ellis Hollow Road, turns down Dodge Road and
then there is a new road proposed. Another possibility is it would go right alone the rail road

right -of -way behind Rt. 366 in Varna which obviously has some other implications. Then there is
another one closer in and another further out. They all have limitations and concerns.
Joseph Lalley suggested a joint presentation on the ornithology project with the Town
Board. Kevin Ezell indicated the Dryden Building Department had attended a meeting, along
with the Town and Village of Lansing and Town of Ithaca where they provided a presentation of
what they proposed to do, but that was the last they have heard.
Mr. Lalley will take responsibility of the matter.
Deborah Grantham stated she approached the Town Board to set up a SEQR work shop
in the vicinity of Dryden for the Town, Planning and Zoning Boards.
Barbara Caldwell stated that the County has not replaced the Circuit Rider positions and
apparently have not had a great number of applicants for the position.
Board Members indicated they had read the parking packet, which was sent for
consideration in making recommendations for revisions to the 30 year old parking policy now in
place. The Board was of a consensus that the policy is in need of revision, but that it requires
expert resources and comments. The Board would like to have a presentation for their next
meeting.. Kevin Ezell indicated he would translate to Supervisor Shug that the Board is
interested in looking into the parking issue.
Eric Evans moved to adjourned.
