Linda Hirvonen opened the meeting; by introducing new member , Steve
Rollins to the Planning Board members and T . Kiederkorn . She in-
f ormed them that Carol Kammen had accepted one other opening on the
B oard but was unavailable for this meeting . One opening still remains .
T . . Niederkorn gave a brief history of the proposed zoning ordinance
and the reasons why the Board had felt it necessary to make some
changes . He elaborated on that - area of the Town wkich will be
affected by the new rater. line going in . Re stressed that the south
end of the Town. indicated a need for growth with the addition of
water. In all , he felt that there would be approximately ten to
twelve various issues involved ..
T . Miederkorn displayed a map indicating present and proposed land
uses . He said that data and decisions made were quickly outdated
due to constantly changing community needs . He reviewed special
Permits and variances: too .
V . Miller. said that land use means use of land only - nothing to do
® with size. , shape or buildings .
T . Niederkorn said that the Town Board probably received word from
the funding agency that a land use control plan was needed to go
ahead with the water line .. He noted that there were water and sewage
problems in that area . Growth was needed to cover 'the costs not -
taken care of by the grants .
V . Miller felt that the Board should not look at one tiny area only ,
but rather beyond that area as growth seemed to always spring up
. around. growth . She continued that there was concern over the lake
front too .
J . 'Kirby asked where the funds would come from for the state school
water line . L , ii :i.- rvonen. replied that w yuld ..be another year , pew funds .
J . Kirby reported that the Jehovah. farms were. up for sale and that
with water- available there could possibly be new growth . She thought
that the farms would be good for dairy or beef and worred that it
might.• be developed with water. coming in . V . Miller_ also wanted to
see . it continue for agricultural purposes .
J . Roma asked how much water a 10 " line could carry and T . nidericorn
said quite a lot . L . Sharpsteen disagreed . V . Miller felt that
pressure: made the big difference .
T . Iiderkorn saw a demand for multiple housing with the coming of
water . He said that the zoning ordinance of 1973 was no longer applica -
ble . He said that funds for water were given for low and middle income
h ousing hence the Bean Hill area was not included . The Board ' s recent
recommendations for ordinance revisions had been shelved by the Town
B oard .

J , Homa did not like the heavy traffic on North Triphammer Road and
inquired how that could be handled . T . 1iederkorn replied that the
✓ illage wanted to limit traffic by limiting development .
✓ . Miller noted that. industry seemed to bring in the greatest income
to the Town and required the least amount of services .
T . i liderkorn suggested that the Board get. a map of zoning , the present
zoning ordinance , look at both to see what is permitted in the proposed
water area , check it for suitability . Check map for areas 500 ' on
both sides of Korth Triphammer across to Asbury .
L . Sharpsteen. said that water without sewers was unsuitable for that
particular area . He said that planners have said for a long time that
it is wrong to put water in where it cannot be supported but that the
legislators don ' t always listen .. Frontage , he felt , was of great
importance .
✓ . Miller. wanted the members to drive down through the area and see
what they think would be good for the area .
L . Sharpsteen . would like to see feeder roads off main roads to service
high density areas .
• L . Hirvonen would like regulations put into the center of South Lansing
and cited Cortland Paving for a poor example of maintenance of
property . .

N.iederkorn. said not off state roads .. L . hirvonen wanted the Board to
guide developers away from multiple driveways onto roads .

January 12th meeting at which time T . Fiderkorn Will return .
