- 2 •-
VII . Triphammer Rd . /Lake Shore Dr . excharge
V . Miller - This question was discussed as long as 12 years ago .
There is also the question of diverting traffic to Warren Rd .
411 D . Hardie
1 . Mr . Hardie put before the board an alternate idea in planning :
a regional , no driveway road running parallel to
Triphammer , beginning at Peruville Rd . , running through
The Town and Village , west of Pyramid Mall to the Cayuga
Heights /Rte . 13 exchange .
2 . The plan wouldhave to be put on an official map with the
land designatedfor this .purpose even though it hasn ' t
been purchased so that no builder could put anything in
its path .
3 , It would encourage cluster development .
4 , This would be an alternate route to Warren Rd .
5 , With this alternate plan it would be advantageous to turn
Triphammer Rd . over to the State so they would have to
build the new parallel road .
B . Bement - Suggested a letter of recommendation to this effect
be sent to the Town Board .
After the PB meets with the Village PB some kind of statement
Re : alternate plan should be made .
✓ . Miller - The land in question could become more valuable with
a regional road .
We need to get the County Commission thinking about it now .

with the Town Board .

IX . Comprehensive Plan Budget
p , Wells - Motion a Mr . Wells moved to use the facilities for
✓ eproduction available through Mr . Bement and r'rite a check
o n this years budget for an estimated amount .
As no second to the motion vas heard , discussion followed .
B . Bement - One would think that were the PB to excede its 1979
budget due to the expense of the Comprehensive Plan , it would
be justified in asking the TB for additional funds .
✓ . Mi ller
1 . Felt it might not be right to spend money for something we
haven ' t been billed for .
2 . Suggested that if we don ' t spend all our 1978 budget and
the remainder reverts to the General Fund , that we would be
justified in borrowing against the General Fund if we excede
o ur budget in 1979 .
P . Wells - Felt it should be put on record that if the printing
o r reproduction of the revised CP isn ' t completed in 1978 , that
the same , less expensive means of reproduction will be used
in 1979 , and not a private printer ,
- 3 -
IX , CP Budget - continued
T0Kick - Felt that if the official minutes show a commitment by the
410 PB to spend certain monies in 1978 that the commitment should
be honored in 19790
