DEBBIE TEETER - TOMPKINS COUNTY COOPERATIVE EXTENSION
AGRICULTURE PROGRAM:
Ms. Teeter spoke about the Town Agriculture profiles. She handed out copies of the
Town Agriculture Profiles and went over it with the Board Members. She stated that the Town of
Lansing has more Agriculture land than any other Town in the County. An updated map
regarding agricultural land is in the making.
GEORGE FRANTZ - GEORGE FRANTZ AND ASSOCIATES:
Mr. Frantz has been hired by the County to assess the feasibility of the County
establishing a purchase of development rights program. He stated that they are looking at the
possibility of the County setting up a smaller program to protect thru PDR, some of the more
environmentally sensitive areas that are not already protected as State Parks, State Forestry,
Cornell Plantations, etc.
LESLIE LANE PROP- RTY:
Mr. Larson stated that Alex Cima's son -in -law has purchased land on Leslie Lane. Mr.
Larson gave the Board Members a highlighted map of the area in question. He stated that there is
approximately a 60' wide by 70' deep future road/emergency access to Triphammer Road. He felt
the Planning Board and Town Board had inserted this paper road when Phase I of the
development was started. Mr. Cima's son -in -law has purchased or received the land just to the
left of the emergency access road. The Village does not want a curb cut onto North Triphammer
Road. He has asked for a right -of -way back over the emergency access road. Mr. Herrick, Mr.
Farkas, Mr. John and Mr. Larson discussed the matter and felt the Town should turn the property
back to Alex Cima as the original owner and let Mr. Cima do as he pleases. Building Lot owners
of Lots 31 and 32 have no desire to acquire the property. The following resolution was then
offered:
RESOLUTION, offered by Mr. Beckwith and seconded by Mrs. Greenly:

Tompkins County Clerk's Office on July 14, 1986 in Liber 618 of Deeds at Page 610, from the

entrance to the Horizons subdivision from North Triphammer Road; and
WHEREAS, the Horizons Subdivision construction has been completed, and there is no
further need for a road turn around at this location or for a second emergency entrance to the
Horizons subdivision from North Triphammer Road; and
WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Lansing has received a request from the
developer for the release of the Town's interest in this parcel of property, for access across this
property from a resident who owns land on either side of said property, and
WHEREAS, such road turn around is no longer required for the Town of Lansing
operations, and, as such, it constitutes surplus property of the Town; therefore, it is hereby
RESOLVED, that the Town board of the Town of Lansing hereby approves transferring
all of its interest in the above described parcel of land back to the developer of the Horizons
subdivision, Alex Cima, along with the release of any and all other rights the Town of Lansing
may have related to this property, and it is
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Lansing authorizes the

COMPLEMENT TO TOMPKINS COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT:
Mr. Larson wanted to publicly complement Mr. Meskill on his work as far as patrols, etc.
He stated that he was very impressed since Mr. Meskill has taken over as Sheriff. He also felt the
speedometer box was of great help. Mr. Larson also stated that the City Police Department has a
box that can be used by the Town as needed as it was bought from grant monies.
DICK CHARSKY - NYS ELECTRIC AND GAS*
Mr. Charsky discussed the NYSE &Gas price protection plan with the Board. He stated
that it was a 6 point plan as follows:
1. Need more generation of supply.
2. Electric Transmission System is overloaded and we need more lines.
3. All twenty -two Power Plants plan to be fired with natural gas therefore natural gas
infrastructure needs to be constructed.
4. Regional Transmission Organization needs to be updated.
5. Energy Conservation programs need to continue.
6. Price Protection Plan (filed on March 14, 2001)
Mr. Charsky stated that thru the price protection plan, everyone will receive a 3%
reduction and the price freeze will continue for 6 years. (This will be for residential customers)
Mr. Charsky passed out a draft resolution that he asked the Board to look over and
support by passing it or by writing a letter to the Governor.
The Town Board will discuss this matter and make a decision at a later time.
GREGG TRAVIS - LANSING PLANNING BOARD:
,q
Continued September 19, 2001
Mr. Travis, representing the Planning Board, requested that the Town Board return the
single lot subdivision approvals back over to the Planning Board. These are now approved by the
Code Enforcement Officer.
Mr. Platt was asked his opinion and he stated that there are some single lot subdivisions
that he does not feel comfortable approving therefore he refers them to the Planning Board. He
felt if it were a simple single lot subdivision, it should be taken care of in one meeting. He stated
that it would be helpful to him if the Planning Board took them over and felt it was a good idea.
Mr. Farkas stated that he has concerns that the one -lot subdivision will get myriad down
and he does not want to see this happen. He cautioned that this not happen. The Board felt there
should be some type of time frame on these subdivision approvals. No action was taken at this
time.
ROBERT BURGAORE - CROWN ATLANTIC REP:
Mr. Burgaore showed the Board pictures that had been taken from a balloon regarding the
placement of a cell tower.
He asked for direction from the Town. Mr. Farkas stated that he was concerned as the
Town was in litigation with the County at this time.
Al Lacko of 59 Peruville stated that he was opposed to the site at the Highway barns. He
felt you would be able to see a lot more of the tower once the leaves have fallen. This would be
an eye sore to him.
Susan Brock stated that the County has no plans for where the towers will be placed at
this time. She was not sure when the County plans on making a decision but will get some solid
dates and get back to Mr. Farkas with them so the Town could make a decision on a tower in the
Town of Lansing.
No action was taken at this time.
Mr. Larson reported the following:
OTTENSCHOTT PROPERTY:
All of the tires are now gone and trash will be burned on October 15th. He asked the
Board to notify the neighbors of this.
GRAVEL BANK:
Mulching has been finished along with the grass seed and should start looking nice soon.
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT WORK HOURS:
The Highway Department will return to a five day work week beginning the first week in
October.
NORTH TRIPHAMMER ROAD:
Mr. Larson felt the Town should publicly thank the County for the work they did on
North Triphammer Road and felt it was a lot better than before and should get us through the
winter.
Mr. Farkas thanked Mr. Larson and Mr. Tom Todd for their part in the Triphammer Road
improvement.
MORE PARKING AROUND TOWN HALL:
Mr. Larson stated that Mrs. Greenly approached him regarding extra parking around the
Town Hall.
It was proposed that two more parking lots be placed near the driveway path behind the
Town Hall, one area to be 30'x 120' and the other to be 30'x 160'. This would accommodate
another 28 to 30 cars and maybe more. The total hard cost price is $ 12,020.00.

Continued September 19, 2001
Mr. Larson stated he was totally against the idea and felt it would create a bad situation as
he did not feel you should mix children with cars. He felt it was too close to the playground and
that kids would run back and forth without looking.
Mrs. Greenly stated that parents want to park near the playground. She felt it was far
away from anywhere and needed parking. She said there would be a fence put up also.
Mrs. Greenly asked the Board Members to take a look at the area.
OLD DRIVEWAY TO OLD TOWN HALL:
Mr. Beckwith asked Mr. Larson if something could be done with the old entrance to the
old Town Hall as his mother pulled into this driveway and went over the curb. Her car had to be
lifted by a tow truck. Mr. Larson stated that they cannot do anything in that space until the State
tells them what they can do. He stated that he could put cones in front of the curb for now.
FLAGS IN THE TOWN:
Al Lacko asked if the Town could place more flags around the Town as other Town's do.
He suggested they be placed either on telephone or light poles.
Mr. Farkas stated that he was all for it but that he took a lot of bad mouth for the few that
were put up last year at Christmas time. �
Mr. Larson suggested that businesses might contribute if their name could be placed on
the flag, usually at the bottom.
TOM TODD:
North Triphammer Road
Mr. Todd stated that he will keep after the County Highway Department to make sure all
the paper work is complete by Spring so that the improvements on North Triphammer Road can
start on time. He stated that they have to obtain 88 easements. He informed the Board that the
total project cost will be around three million dollars.
County Budget Increase•
Mr. Todd stated that at this point, it looks like there will be a 4.6% increase in the County
Budget for the year 2002. Negations are still continuing.
Dick Platt reported the following:
MONTHLY REPORT:
He stated that without NYSEG, they were up by 14 permits and up by $ 594,416 in
project costs.
N.Y.S. BUILDING OFFICIALS CONFERENCE:
Mr. Platt and Mr. Day attended a meeting in Lake Placid from September 12th thru
September 14th, 2001. Due to the terrorist attacks, the instructor from Los Angeles did not make
the meeting but others filled in. He felt the attendance was very good. The transnational training
has been delayed. It won't begin until the enhancements are completed.
ZONING CHANGES:
The Planning Board should have changes ready after one or two more meetings.
Dave Herrick:
Mr. Herrick was not present at the meeting but gave the Town Board a copy of the
c�q
Continued September 19, 2001
following agenda he prepared:
1. General Engineering
a. 2002 Budget
Bolton Point has elected to maintain the water rate at $1.79/1000 gals
for 2002. The Town surcharge of $1.10 /1000 gals is sufficient to cover
the planned expenses for 2002, therefore it does not appear necessary
to raise the Town surcharge.
2. Water System Planning and Maintenance
a. 2001 Water System Improvement Project (WD 419; WD #12, Ext. #2; WD 425
Ext. #3):
Construction costs are well within approved budgets. Likely "not -to- exceed"
amounts for construction are as follows:
WD #19 - $563,500 (Engineer's estimate $603,000)
WD #12, Ext. #2 $133,500 (Engineer's estimate $142,200)
WD #2, Ext. #3 $ 54,500 (Engineer's estimate $77,500)
These figures should be reliable for pursuing permanent financing. We
expect to close -out the contract by the October 17th Board meeting.
A response from Syracuse Constructors regarding the Kolynich damage is
still pending.
b. Water District #17 and Permissive Service Area Request (R. Page)
R. Page has submitted a draft report/proposal for a traditional district
extension project. The Town Supervisor, Attorney and Engineer have
reviewed the proposal and are ready to meet again with Page to recommend
changes in the form and content of his document.
c. Water District #7, Extension #12 (Young Subdivision)
John Young was recently granted subdivision approval for 4 lots on
Waterwagon Road. He will be preparing draft documents to request
a water district extension for the 4 lots and the remaining 100 acres
of agricultural land. Water supply for the 4 lots will be provided from
the existing main on Waterwagon Road.
3. Sanitary Sewer Planning and Maintenance
a. Regional Sewer Initiative
The Public Scoping Session for the DEIS was held at the Lansing Town
Hall on Thursday, September 6th. Comments were few and are summarized
in the attachment from Susan Brock. The public comment period expires
