It Is 0 1 r July 06, 1994, continued Proof of Notice having been furnished, the Public Hearing for the Revised Boundaries of the Proposed Town of Lansing Water District #18 was called to order at 8:15 pm. David Herrick, Town Engineer passed out the following Engineer's Report. SECTION-.1 - .INTRODUCTION New York State Electric and Gas. (NYSE &G) owns and operates the Milliken Station Power -P1•ant located on ,Millliken Road- in -the Town of Lansing.. Milliken- Station- current -l.y. operates a small water treatment plant to meet their operation's needs:. Raw water is drawn from. Cayuga Lake and duly pumped to three 113 gpm gravity filters located on the mezzanine floor. Ahead of the filters, _ chlor.ine solution and prefloc alum is' added to-the raw wat.e:r. The raw water- .flows through the filters to the 40,000 gala_on if•iltered water clew -resell located directly below the.mezzanine floor:: From the-- clearwell the water is pumped by two 120 gpm pumps�"to the nearby 15,000 gallon water storage tank. The water storage tank supplies water for miscellaneous station services and filter backwash. I - Although-,Mil liken Station's treatment plant has. successfully met the ,facility's needs for a number of years, due to -the. more stringent water quality regulations being implemented -by -the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ( NYSDEC), NYSE &G is concerned that during certain seasons, their treatment facility, as it currently exists, would not be able to meet the new requirements. As such., it has become necessary for NYSE &G to evaluate various options which would allow the drinking water used at the facility to meet the new NYSDEC regulations. Several of NYSE &G's alternatives focused on upgrading their existing treatment plant. One alternative however, was to eliminate the treatment aspect of their operation and instead be serviced by the Town of Lansing's Water Distribution System. The Milliken Station facility lies approximately 7 miles northwest of the Hamlet of Ludlowville where the Town's distribution system currently terminates. A pump station and storage tank capable of supporting an extension to Milliken Station would also be able to support potential extensions to communities along the proposed Milliken Station water main route. As such, discussions between representatives from NYSE &G, the Town Board and Water Committee, and Lansing residents took place concerning the possibility -of cost sharing for infrastructure which would directly support the extension of water to interested communities. The intent of the proposed cost sharing was to decrease the cost of the proposed extension to Milliken Station enough to make it the most favorable option to NYSE &G, thereby securing the opportunity for interested communities along the route to obtain water at a cost much less than otherwise possible. Compared to the cost if the residents fully financed a water extension to their communities, the cost sharing proposal was attractive. However, after numerous informal public meetings, it became apparent that any type of cost sharing for the shared infrastructure increased-the cost per unit beyond the means of the majority of the residents in the communities along the proposed route. NYSE &G was then faced with the situation of either singularly financing the entire water main extension to the Milliken Station facility or choosing a different alternative to meet their water concerns. After deliberation, NYSE &G agreed to finance the entire cost of the infrastructure necessary to bring wa -ter to Milliken Station. NYSE &G agreed with the Town's request that all interested parcels (or portions thereof) fronting on the water main along Ridge and Milliken Station. Roads be included within the district boundaries yet incur no project construction costs. With-respect 94 July 06, 1994, continued to future .extensions of the water district, NYSE &G has further agreed to waive any buy -in fees or annual contributions. Hence, 'extensions of this district will not be subject to offsetting the cost of the parent district. The Lansing Town Board, in support of NYSE &G's request, authorized this Engineer's Report. The focus of the Report is to determine the feasibility of extending the Town water system beyond the presen boundaries of Water District No. 7 in Ludlowvii'le for the purpose of serving Mil,l_iken Station and properties fronting on the proposed. main along Ridge and Milliken Station Roads.. This Report provides the basic information needed to assess the pfro jest and the costs so that the people, the Town Board, and NYSE &G may express their comments. Included herein is an over view.of/ the demographics of the proposed service area, a brief discussion of the method through which the Town's water system /operates, design cons iderations\including a hydraulic ainalys�s of the proposed improvements, construction conditions, a detailed cost estimate, a method for financing the project, and. a lifting of supplemental costs. / A Public Hearing was held July 28, 1993/to discuss the proposed project.

Hence, extensions of this district will not be subject to offsetting the cost of the parent district. The Lansing Town Board, in support of NYSE &G's request, authorized this Engineer's Report. The focus of the Report is to determine the feasibility of .extending the Town water. system beyond the present boundaries of Water District No. 7. in Ludlowville for the purpose of serving 'Milliken Station and properties fronting -on the proposed main along Ridge and Milliken Station Roads. This Report provides the basic information. needed to assess the project and the costs so that the people, the Town Board, and NYSE &G may express their comments. Included herein -is an overview -of the_demo.graphics of the proposed service area, a .brief di.sc-ussi.on of the method ® through which the Town's water system. operates, design considerations including.a hydraulic analysis of the, proposed improvements, construction.conditions, a- detailed cost estimate, a method for financing the project, and a_listing of. supplemental costs. A Public Hearing was held July 28, 1993 to discuss the proposed project. At the Public Hearing the Town Board determined that the district boundary should be revised to include tax _map parcels 26- 3-7, 26 -3 -7.7 and 27 -1- 22.1.. A, subsequent into.rmat.iona.l.meeting held May 4, 1994 with owners of larger farm parcels resulted in further expanding the district boundary.. A11_ of the district boundary .revisions will. be _presented to the public at. a..second Public Hearing. Following the Public Hearing the Town Board will determine whether to proceed with the. establishment of the district or table the project. The Board's determination to proceed is subject to _a permissive referendum. . _ If no_ referendum is-.called for, 'or if ..the. outcome of a . re.ferendum. is in s.upp.o.rt. of the project, final documentation_ for _the. establishment . of_. the, Water District wi.l.l be - prepared for submission to the New-.York State Comptroller Office. SECTION 2 - SERVICE AREA The proposed_extension.to Mill.iken Station is herein designated as Water.District. No. 17, the next numerical .sequence .f.or identifying water districts in the Town. As proposed, Water District No. 17 currently includes five tax map parcels owned by New York State Electric and Gas. These five adjoining tax -map. parcels comprise . roughly 10.40 + .a,cr.es. In addition to NYSE &G's parcels, it is proposed that. -the service area include properties along Ridge Road between the existing Water District No..7 boundary. and the. intersection with the new Milliken Station Road. Many of...the parcels. f.ront.ing_ on Ridge. -Road are large tracts. of. _farm land.. Originall-y., only_ .the road - frontage.. of the farm parcel.,- .to. a_depth o.f.300 _feet, was proposed- to- be..incl.uded in the. district boundary. The_ information -. meeting. held May. .4., 1994 revealed an int.eres.t of many Large _parcel .owners. to. have. more of their_ lands included .in -the district. .._Nine written. requests were received by the _Town_ affecting _thi,rteen parcels.., The...r.evised district - boundary .i.s shown ..on the attached map -.

The vast majority .of the-proper-ties a.long Ridge..Road, fronting on the proposed water main, are currently included in Agricultural District No. 9.- The understanding-with-New York .State - Department of Agriculture and..Markets suggests that the existing residences within . Agricul tural - District No. -9.. would- - current 1 y be-..able to obtain .w.a.ter_ service if .so desired.

SECTION 3 - OVERVIEW OF METHOD OF OPERATION The source of supply is through the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water Commission (SCLIWC), on Cayuga Lake, The Town of Lansing and Dryden and the Villages of located at as well as the Towns Lansing and Cayuga Bolton Point of Ithaca Heights are members of the Commission. The Commission was established in as an intermunicipal cooperative organization for the purpose 1974 of supplying high quality treated water in adequate quantities to meet the needs of participating municipalities. Tank No. 1 is located at Village Water from proposed water the Commission is pumped into the Town of Lansing's will distribution system via the Town Pump Station located at Burdick Water determine pressure Hill. The Town of Lansing's Storage Tank No. 1 is located at Village Circle South and has a capacity of 1.0 million gallons. A companion tank, Tank No. 2, is located on Bean Hill with a capacity Road. of 350,000 gallons. Tank No. 3, with a capacity of 200,000 gallons, is located on Wilson Road above the Hamlet of Ludlowville. Due to the wide variation in ground surface elevations, water main pressures in the existing Lansing water system are primarily controlled by main line pressure reducing stations. The Town system presently has seven pressure zones. The proposed water main extension will connect to the existing Water determine pressure Water the reducing District Hydraulic tank and pump and sizing of analyses were size, the the distribution No. 7 distribution system on Ludlowville Road. SECTION 4 - DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS The computer model for the existing Town of Lansing Water Distribution System was modified to include servicing the proposed Water determine pressure District the reducing No. 17 area. proposed station, Hydraulic tank and pump and sizing of analyses were size, the the distribution performed to placement of a mains. For estimating purposes, residential water use in the Town is considered as roughly 325 gallons per average day (gpad) per single family residence (or equivalent consumption unit). NYSE &G's daily consumption is estimated to be 6,000 gpad, which translates to roughly 19 consumption units. As shown in Table 4.1, if all of the existing 122 water consumption units were to connect, the total consumption for this area would be approximately 39,650 gallons per average day. If growth within the service area increases as projected, the total water consumption would approximate 56,875 gallons per average day. Table 4.2 presents parameters for sizing a water storage tank. A 150,000 gallon storage tank would allow for storage of over three and a half times the current average day consumption. 150,000 gallons of storage also approximates the projected 20 -year average day consumption if both growth in the district and extensions to the district occur as anticipated. It can be seen from Table 4.3 that a 150,000 gallon storage tank will provide adequate fire protection storage for this area. For these reasons, in addition to the time frame for filling and draining the proposed tank, it was determined that an elevated tank with a capacity of 150,000 gallons would adequately serve the proposed Water District No. 17 area as well as projected extensions between Ridge Road and Cayuga Lake for a period of at least twenty years. The proposed storage tank will be designated as Town of Lansing Water Storage Tank No. 4. It is tentatively located off of Ridge Road at a high point north of Beckwith Lane. The overflow for the tank is proposed at 990± feet U.S.G.S. To utilize the entire available tank storage, assuming the tank is 30 feet deep, while maintaining a minimum static pressure of 25 psi in the distribution system, it is necessary to limit water main extensions at or below the 900 foot U . S . G. S . contour. The majority of the service area is v E at or below farm tracts elevation. affected. July 06, 1994, continued the 900 foot contour, however, several of the large extending to the east of Ridge Road exceed this The following landowners and parcel numbers are OWNER G. Cook B. Meal D.

Ronsvalle PARCEL 10 -1 -15.2 16 -1 -2 16 -1 -40.2 22 -1 -12 22 -1 -24 22 -1 -28.3 These landowners will be notified of the. service pressure limitation, both verbally and by letter, and notified that any future extension of public water on their parcel will require municipally approved and owned booster pump stations constructed at the expense of the landowner. Due to extremes in the topography, it will be necessary to provide a Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) station along Milliken Station Road. The static pressure within the primary pressure zone will range from 35± psi (800 foot contour) to 155± psi (630 foot contour). Downstream of the PRV the pressure will range from 35+ psi to 125± psi. In addition to main line PRV, all service connections will be required to install an individual pressure reducing valve to maintain moderate household pressures as well as protect against pressure surges in the line. The recommended range for the individual pressure reducers is.between 40 and .60 psi. The Pump Station, designated as Town of Lansing Pump Station No. 2, is proposed to be located along Ludlowville Road slightly within the existing Water District No. 7 boundary. Locating the Pump Station at an elevation of approximately 615 feet U.S.G.S. will provide suction- pressure of approximately 35 psi A 40 Hp pump will be necessary to adequately fill the proposed tank.- As is standard practice, a second back -up pump will also be required for the purpose of an- emergency or if the first pump is for -some reason temporarily out of commission. A telemetry system between - Proposed Storage Tank No 4 and Pump Station No. 2 will relay signals to initiate pump start up and shut down -. The t- el.emetry system will also be tied -into the•Bolton Point Treatment Plant.. Series. of ..hydraulic analyses were performed to determine the minimum acceptable size of the proposed water. mains. In order to provide adequate fire flow capability, the transmission main along Ridge Road is suggested to be a minimum of. 12 inch., It was determined that an 8 inch main along Milliken Station Road is adequate. TABLE 4.1 ESTIMATED WATER CONSUMPTION WITHIN PROPOSED WATER DISTRICT No. 17 Total Consumption Units Estimated Consumption (GPD) CURRENT 122+ 391650+ 1994 FUTURE 175+ 561875+ For estimating purposes: 1. Water use is assumed to be 325 gpad per consumption unit. 2. It is assumed that the consumption at Milliken Station will increase by one third over the 20- -year design period.. 9r Q8 July 06, 1994, continued PARAMETERS FOR TABLE �4.2 SIZING WATER STORAGE TANK CONSUMPTION PRESENT (1994) FUTURE (2013) Water District Including Probable Extensions to and Growth Within WD #17 Approximate average 39,650± gpad 160,000± gpad daily water use Maximum day use 59,475 ±'gpad 240,00.0± gpad (1.5 x average) • Peak hour domestic 4,950± gpah 20=,00.0± gpah rate (3 x average) TABLE 4.3 FIRE FLOW CONSIDERATIONS Fire Flow in (minimum) 500 gpm Fire Flow District (desirable No. 17 750 - 1,000+ gpm Minimum fire flow storage (2 hour fire @ 750 gpm) 90,000 gallons Desirable fire flow storage (4 hour fire @ 750 gpm) 180,000 gallons SECTION 5 - CONSTRUCTION CONDITIONS For convenience, the water mains on Map 1 are generally shown along existing roads. This implies that the water mains will be constructed within existing road right -of -ways or acquired easements. More precise locations will be identified in future design phases. During construction, traffic patterns will be disrupted, but the Contractor will be* required to maintain a throughway for traffic. No rock is anticipated along the proposed water main route. However, test borings will be undertaken to determine the actual extent of rock excavations and the cost estimate will be modified accordingly. Test boring information will be made available to Bidders at the time the project is advertised. SECTION 6 - COST ESTIMATE As shown in Table 6.1, the total estimated project cost for Water District No. 17 is $2,000,000.

These bonds will be partially tax exempt pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended. Bond counsel will issue an opinion letter indicating their status as private activity bonds and the exemption under the Internal Revenue Code may be used so long as the bonds -have been issued pursuant to an allocation of the "volume cap" as provided by law. A reservation for the volume cap has been made by the Department of Economic-Development for 1994. It is assumed that the interest rates-for a twenty year-issue will be in the range of 6.5 to 6.75 percent.- For-financial planning purposes the rate of 6.75 percent will be used for this project. Annual Payment for Bonded Indebtedness The 1986 code requires that the weighted average maturity of exempt facility bonds not exceed 120 percent of the weighted average useful life of the bond- financed-facilities. Assuming the project cost is financed with 20-year-bonds at 6.75 percent interest, the first year payment is calculated as follows. 1st Year Principal Payment-= 1st Year Interest Payment = Total 1st Year-Payment--- $2,000,000/20 x 80% = $ 80,000. 2,000,000 x 0.0675 = 1351000. = $215,000. Following a series of informational meetings between representatives of New-York State Electric and Gas, the Town of Lansing, and Town- -residents-, N.Y.S.E. &G. has agreed to finance the entire project cost of extending water to Milliken Station and will c C. 0 July 06, 1994, continued be responsible for the entire share of the bonded indebtedness. SECTION 8 - SUPPLEMENTARY COSTS NYSE &G annual payment for NYSE &G will incur the following costs in addition to the annual capital repayment cost calculated in Section 7. Water Use Fees, Maintenance, and Operating Costs Water Use Fees as well as maintenance and operating costs and system -wide improvement costs are financed by metered water revenues and are estimated at $1,350 per quarterly billing.

DESCRIPTION - TOWN OF LANSING WATER DISTRICT NO. 17 - (Same as appears in the prior Town Engineer Report), Mr. David Moore, owner and operator of Stone Travel presented the following letter to the Town Board members. Purchase agreement in place to purchase land off Warren Drive in Town of Lansing. - Property is unable to be developed in any manner under the current zoning regulations as -you are unable to meet the road, rear and si-de� setback requirements with the road through the middle of the property. If the town were to abandon Warren Drive it would allow this parcel to be-developed. • Adjoining property owners are mostly Cornell and Tompkins County, with only two houses on the approximately 800 ft. of Town road. The structure on..the parcel in question would be removed and if the road were to be. abandoned, the other residence "The Orr Property" would still be accessed from Warren Road, as would this parcel in question. The Board informed Mr. Moore that the proper process would be for him to contact the Orr's and Cornell and petition the Board for a Public Hearing to abandon the road. Mr. Chuck Benson addressed the Town Board in regards to his 725 acre parcel of land that has frontage along Ridge Road. He asked the Board why only 112 acres out of the 725 acres are being allowed to be in the debt free- district? other -property - owners along-Ridge Road were given the option to put their whole parcel of land-in and he said he only expects the same treatment that they received Mrs. Kirby informed Mr. Benson that this is the first time that they ever had a parcel that extended - beyond the original road that it- started on. If water was -ever to- be extended on Lansingville Road it would put the remaining homeowners in a hardship because they could not- afford to go into the district without Mr. Benson's land being included. Mr. Herrick stated that all of the cases with the exception of Mr. Benson's had a contiguous- butting to the water line. His property does cross Lansingville Road with no direct access to the water main. Mr. Benson said the initial presentation was not presented to him that way and he feels like the Board_is. back peddling on him. Mrs. Kirby stated that nobody- realized. that the parcel was so large. Mr. Herrick and Mrs. Kirby apologized for misunderstanding the size of his parcel. Mr. Larson discussed the Crooked Hill Road (Ludlowvi-lle Road) project. RESOLUTION At a regular meeting of the - Lansing Town- Board, held at the Town of 'Lansing Hall in the Town of Lansing,_ Tompkins County, New York on the 6th day of July 1994.•at 8:00 p.m., the following being present.
