31 Sewer Committee- Larry Sharpsteen stated that David Herrick' s presentation had covered the Sewer
32 Committee. Larry stated that the regional plan was not the most cost effective, but without a regional
33 plan, they would not receive funding.
34 EMC-Larry Sharpsteen stated he received a flyer about the meeting they are hosting. Larry stated that
35 the biggest concern of the EMC for the past 3 months has been the Lake Source Cooling. The County
36 Board wanted to get the money from the state by having TCAT support a ' portion of the cost of the Lake
Source Cooling. As an advisory board to the County Board, the EMC tried to advise the County Board
that they could put in a statement that they think it is a good use of TCAT' s funds, however, they do not
39 agree that the Environmental Impact Statement is thorough or correct. The County Board was told and
40 believed they could not support the TCAT funding, while at the same time stating that they had
41 reservations about the accuracy of the Environmental Impact Statement. ,Larry Sharpsteen stated this

Report from Committee Chairs & Officers (cont. ) -
i , Transportation Committee- Brad Griffin stated he has attended a lot of meetings . There is a Policy
4 Committee meeting on Tuesday, July 14 . Brad stated that the goals that ,have been formulate thus far for
;i5 ' . the transportation plan have struck him more like an avoidance of traffic'', rather than trying to stimulate a
;16 • safe and dependable traffic system . Lin Davidson stated that Brad gave an excellent proposal, or goal , at
17. , that meeting. Brad stated that he will attend the next meeting to see if itis still alive . Brad stated that
41:8 one other point he would like to make at the Policy Committee meeting would be that in any kind of a
19 traffic system, it is a good and safe thing to have some level of redundancy . For example, the bridge at
2Q Myers, if that bridge went out, imagine all the traffic being put through on the Ludlowville side. Brad
41 Griffin stated that he attended a meeting of the Client Group, the heads of local government, where the -
22 sewer proposal was discussed . He said it was refreshing to see the communities join together. , •
• Asi iC.
23 • Viola Miller stated that the Village has worked on the trails and they stop at the Town edge . It has been .. "...:22:s;

24 talked about bringing them into the populated areas . Viola stated she thought this may be something
25 they should consider in the future . Viola asked the Planning Board members if they would like to •
26 schedule a meeting with the Village . The Board agreed a joint meeting ,would be a good idea, possibly
27 in the fall.
28 Planning Federation- Viola Miller stated that George Totman had sent the Planning Federation
•
29 pamphlets to the members. George Totman stated that it would be helpful to get the registrations in "
39 early. The prices are only guaranteed until August 21 .

32Discussion on Future ' Roads- Viola Miller stated she would like to discuss the future roads , but is not
33' sure where they should start. LarrySha
rPsteen Suggested', as a beginning exercise, each person take a
3¢ map of the same area of the town, with the current information and the new zoning and see what each
35 person ,comes up with . Larry stated that first you have' to establish a need for a road in an area, then 113 :
36 figure out a way they can, or a reason why they can not, go there.
3 ? ` LariySharpsteen stated perhaps they should split into 3 groups, work together based on current need and
:),V-; see what they come up with for the next meeting. Larry added that what they should establish is what
39 they feel are the target areas. George Totman suggested they start by taking a look at the Autumn Ridge
40 ` area; start where they` already have required the paper roads to be put in. Brad Griffin agreed that
41 seemed like a logical' place to start. . ,r•,.

42 : ,George,. Totman stated he had attended a meeting about Portland Point Rd. The meeting was with Tom . r 91 rl
43: Beserner, Cargill ; .and the County Planning Department to see if they

7 Zoning Ordinance- Viola Miller stated she felt the Planning Board should make a point to let theTown '
8 Board know the Planning Board members still feel very strongly about the Town Board not changing the ' „ ' L;' •
9 road frontage . Brad Griffin stated he did not think they could have been more clear about that point, but , 1 ;
► 0 he agreed with George that after the ordinance was passed they have a shake down period before making I.
► ► changes . Brad suggested assembling a file . Brad stated he had a copy of the letter Susan Brock ; • ;.
12 presented to the Town Board at the public hearing and would make copies for the members of the

15 Status of Ottenschot Property, 17 Ridge Road- Brad Griffin inquired about the current status of the ` 't
16 Town ' s action against Ottenschot. He stated that it is not an unrealistic aspiration of the Town that this
17 area be a zone in which they would like to attract business . He is not sure ,what type of business that `.
18 would attract to the town . George Totman stated that it is tied up in lawyers hands right now, it is out of ;F; :'
19 his hands . George stated there are other properties in the town that need to be cleaned up, but it is hard
20 to go after those when this is allowed to go on in the center of town . Brads, Griffin stated that legally
21 someone could go after the Town for discriminatory enforcement. George addded that because ..
0 • Ottenschot is in "receivership," he can not take anything off of the property because they are considered k.
assets . ` '
24 Viola Miller stated she is concerned about the sign for the Town of Lansing being right in front of the
25 Hovanec house that has been abandon and falling down for years . George Totman stated that the house " +:
26 is in the village . Viola understood that, but stated she wished they would move the sign for the Town .
27 Update on Ron Seacord Development- Larry Sharpsteen stated that the Woodsedge extension and -ri-
28 Cayuga Vista Drive are complete and ready for paving. The drainage study has been completed and . - •'<?'_
29 submitted to the State and the Town. They are awaiting the approval for the curb cut onto Route 34 . ' ' '
30 Larry stated that he fully expects the paving of Woodsedge and Cayuga Vista, to the state right-of-way,
31 to begin before the end of this week or the beginning of next week. Within the next year, IMR may
c e, r ._
32 exercise the option to buy the other 2 lots and possibly expand their building. Brad Griffin asked what..' ?:'- r4:`c •, , Mc:
33 became of the discussion of the collecting pool . Larry Sharpsteen responded that there is still the
rFir
34 insistence of the Town Engineer to have a space capable of retaining 3 acre feet of water. Larry stated '„-, T : t! :l •1 .
35 that was mitigated somewhat by the proposal to utilize the, land that Mr. Seacord owns on the other side ;S : . ' ' - ':
36 of the old railroad bed, with a controlled drainage through the dike . Brad Griffin asked if the railroad, _x'rfi;: is _
37 right of ways were permeable . Mr. Herrick looked at it and tentatively approved the idea. Larry , :_i ; = k

40 David Lippert stated that for the past year, the Catholic Church and the Rochester Diocese has been ; : :' " :1 �: ' s `.
41 trying to consolidate churches due to the shortage of personnel . As part of that report, it was decided: �s ,,', , ', i
42 • that for the first time in the history of this town, there will be an independent parish that is not dependenticr ' z -,
Oon another parish. As of July 1 , 1998 , the All Saints Church is an independent parish. David stated •thff / .'; . i. ; .
44 to the north, they will be losing probably around six parishes and Groton and Dryden will have to be ' , ,' ',..ii ; _ .
