(Aye) Jeannine Kirby, Supervisor Mr. Tvaroha stated that Mr. Lacko, Mr. Egan and Mr. Ley are willing to allow the Town Highway Department to do the necessary drainage work that needs to be done behind the Lansing Foodliner and to the south of the building. It was the consensus of_the.Board to authorize Mr. Larson to proceed with this as soon as he received written permission from adjoining property owners. Rich John informed the Board Members that he had received a letter from Leo Mahool and Charles Tallman stating that they would like their bond lowered to $10,000.00 as they felt this would cover any necessary work that would need to be done along with their one year written guarantee. The Town Board felt that if someone has to pay New York State Electric & Gas and New York Telephone to move all the lines it could be very expensive, therefore Mr. Larson will amend his letter that was written to Mr. Mahool and Mr. Tallman stating that he now feels a $25,000.00 bond would be more adequate than $10,000.00 as he previously stated. Mr. Larson will present Mr. Cleveland with a copy of his letter. Mr. Totman presented his monthly report. Mr. Totman stated that according to the Tompkins County Planning Board there is some money that hasn't been spent from the 1986 Bond Act. Lansing may be interested in looking into this. A new law will take effect January 26, 1992 that will effect handicapped people and access to public places. Mr. Totman passed out information pertaining to this. He stated that the State is VERY serious about this.and that the fine could be very high. The Town felt that they would put a General Plan together in regard to this situation.
