TOWN BOARD MEETING MINUTES
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY !6th, 2002
6:30 P.m.
PUBLIC HEARING MINUTES
A public hearing was held Wednesday, January 16`k 2002 concerning the Enfield
Volunteer Fire Company's low interest loan application. The public hearing was held at
the Enfield Community Building, 182 Enfield Main Road, Ithaca, New York at 6:30 p.m.
with Supervisor Owens presiding.
Present
Supervisor Jean Owens. Town Councilperson Greg Stevenson, Town Councilperson
Mark Roach, Town Councilperson Pat Gumaer and Town Councilperson Ronald Switzer.
Others present were Highway Superintendent David M[ller, Bookkeeper Pat Podufalski,
Town Justices Betty Poole and Jane Murphy, Court Clerk Carolyn Thall and Town Clerk
Alice Laue.
Supervisor Owens opened the public hearing by reading the legal notice published in the
Ithaca Journal.
Supervisor Owens asked a fire company representative to state what the capital
improvements are- Fire Chief Stevenson—the two largest parts of the project are a room
added on to the south side of the fire station and an addition to the apparatus bays.
Repair and replacement of the blacktop and paving some areas that previously were not
paved.
Fire Department Attorney—James Baker
Fire Department wants to borrow money for this capital improvement. The Town Board
gets involved because the town is directly involved because of a safety requirement the
bank has for the interest rate on this loan. If the loan is to a municipality certain rules are
followed then when the bank collects its interest it does not have to pay income tax on
that interest. If the loan is to a municipality or for a municipal purpose then the income is
exempt from taxation and the interest rate can be lowered. The fire department is not a
municipality but since it provides municipal services in the way of fire protection for the
Town of Enfield it has a semi-municipal function and the fire department can take
advantage of that if the town government approves of this loan.
