TOMPKINS COUNTY, NEW YORK" made by Lee Dresser, L.S. No. 050096, dated 10/9/2008,
last revised 11/3/2011, which map is incorporated herein by reference and is filed in the Tompkins
County Clerk's Office along with this instrument.
The above described premises include some or all of the premises conveyed to the City of Ithaca by
deed dated August 30, 1935 and recorded September 26, 1935 in liber 238 of Deeds at page 63 in
said Clerk's Office, by deed dated April 14, 1959 and recorded April 22, 1959 in liber 416 of
Deeds at page 27 in said Clerk's Office and by deed dated July 6, 1967 and recorded August 15,

SUBJECT TO any and all utility corporation easements and rights of way of record insofar as they
may affect the above described premises.
TOGETHER WITH a "plant expansion easement" 50 feet in width and along a portion of the
southwest and westerly line of the above described premises as more particularly shown on the map
of survey herein above referred to. Said " plant expansion easement" constitutes 0.605 acres and
shall constitute a permanent easement for the purpose of accommodating future expansion of the
wastewater treatment plant, upon a formal decision to do so by the oversight group for such plant
(said group is currently known as the Special Joint Committee, as described in the Joint Sewer
Agreement dated December 31, 2003). The right to the use of such permanent easement for such
purpose cannot be exercised prior to January 1, 2019 and then only upon at least three years written
notice to the Mayor of the City of Ithaca. Prior to the exercise of such right to utilize the plant
expansion easement for the permitted purposes, the City of Ithaca or its lessee or sublessee may use
the easement area for traffic circulation, parking, landscaping or gardening, or such similar use not
involving the permanent construction of buildings. Upon notification by the oversight group for
the Ithaca Area Wastewater Treatment Plant, the party of the first part agrees to convey said
easement area to the party of the second part for no further consideration.
TOGETHER WITH a 30' permanent easement located 15' each side of the current sanitary sewer
outfall pipeline for the wastewater treatment plant as more particularly shown on the above
referenced survey map for the purposes of maintenance, repair or replacement of such outfall
pipeline. Said permanent easement shall not preclude above ground construction by the City, its
lessee or sublessee, provided such construction is timely removed at the City's or its lessee's or its
sublessee's sole cost upon prior reasonable written notice of the need to use such pipeline easement
area and without obligation on the party of the second part to restore or replace any such structures.
SUBJECT TO a permanent easement for the benefit of the City of Ithaca, said easement being 20'
in width, centered on the Cayuga Waterfront Trail as actually constructed and running across the
entire northerly portion of the above described premises, for the purpose of accommodating said
Trail and its maintenance by the City of Ithaca. The approximate location of such easement is
shown on the above referenced survey map (said Trail having now been constructed in that
approximate location).
The ownership interests of the parties of the second part in the above described premises are
determined according to the Joint Sewer Agreement among the parties dated December 31, 2003
(see Sections 3.1 and 18 thereof and Appendix II thereto), which ownership interest at the date of
such agreement was:
City of Ithaca 57.14%
Town of Ithaca 40.88%
Town of Dryden 1.98%
100%
Pursuant to such Joint Sewer Agreement, the respective percentage of ownership interest may
change and will be based upon such agreement.
