Guests : Frank Liguori , Commissioner , County Planning Depart . ( CPD )

A . Discussion - highlights of :
1 . CPD ' s concept for growth - selective communities
20 interaction between area planners could be encouraged by
housing all planners in one building , each with own staff
3 . CPD can help area planners by :
a ) conveying alternatives of development
b ) assisting with comprehensive view of town ords . & regs .
• 40 possible selective communities :
a ) Warren and Farrell Rds . - destined for more growth
b ) S . Lansing , Ludlowville , Myers - definite service problem
5 . CPD would encourage large lot development
6 . unless an area has a population of at least 1000 , it
would be impossible monetarily to provide water and
sewer services
7 . 50 year sewage study projection : unfeasible to expect
sewer services in Town of Lansing during this time except
possibly the Farrell and Warren Rd . area
8 . lot size - CPD would suggest minimum of 1 acre for minor
subdivision , 11 acres outside developed area
Example : Danby - 1 acre minimum in Nelson Rd . area ,
21 acres outside Danby proper
9 . Airport - impact - major study in progress
10 . predicted county growth by end of century : 20 , 000
a ) 6% in Ithaca urban area
b ) 20000 in rural areas like Lansing
11 . Myers , Ludlowville , S . Lansing - might better discourage
growth if providing public services not feasible
129 foresee drop- off in multiple dwellings
139 enforcement of state codes optional at local level
149 all other towns feel lack of professional expertise at
planning level
15 . CPD will assist in formulating ordinances , etc .
16 . policy decision made by LPB , and endorsed by CPB , which
11, is a direct arm of the government , is more powerful then
the Health Depart . ( re : lot size )
17 , recognizing through the 50 year study that water and sewer
will not be available during that time , a court would
say 4- acre not enough
18 . lateral sewers - only if Congress provides funding
19 . land must be set aside for sewage systems in mobile home
parks
20 . report on Cayuga Station will be forwarded to LPB
