Town Resident, A.W.Roberts from 981
Rt.222 apprised the Board that his water
has been polluted for some time. He
asked if it was feasible for the Town to
extend Town water to him, as he is
located on a strip of Town land situated
between; Fairview and Highland on the
West and Rt. 201 on the East which does
not have access to Town water.
Supervisor Pierce apprised Mr.
Roberts that because of his location, to
extend water- to him would involve laying
about one mile of pipeline, which could
be very costly to the Town. Mr, Pierce
also stated that eventually Town water
would become available to Mr. Roberts
and other residents located in this
area; but not from this project. He
stated that he would request the Town
Engineer to prepare a cost figure for
extension of Town Water to the residents
in the area in question.

Wednesday April 05, 1999 Page 2
Mr' Roberts quest�cned the bonding process, as the proposed
water project will require $1'DOOrO0O,00 bonding.
Town, Attorney, PhiIlip Rumsey explained in detail how the
bonding process murked and the bonding limit.
Town resident, Rutherford Bell was concerned that the
proposed project would put farmers in the area out of business.
His main concern was the be:efit tax which would be levied on
road frontage. This extra 4-ax would be a burden to the area
farmer.
After a lenghy discussion regarding this subject it the
consensus of the Board that the process for determining benefit
tax should be reviewed by the Town, to accommodate land that is
zoneal "AgriculturaI"
Town resident, Bob Moore commended the Board for the action
taken. He stated Lhat the people that would receive the Town
water from the proposed proJect would be grateful, and thankfuI.
He complimented the Board for a job well done.
Town resident, Jim Touhatly from Meadow L�ne ��ked the Board
how much increase in benefit tax the proposed project would
create,
Town Engineer, Hayne Smith replied thit would be
approximately $192.00 a year for the average taxpayer who
benefits from Town water throughout the Town of [ortIandviIIe.
Sevc-_�ral other asked regarding the advantages
and disadvantages of the proposed project. Among these were: the
cost of operating a pump, what side of the road the project would
be on, when the pro�ect wiIl t)egin, and where the water would be
supplied from, and whether or not the Town mould supply water for
future subdivision developments.
Supervisor Fierce apprised that the project would commence
sometime this year, the yater would be supplied by the old well
and the new one, developers wilI continue to install their own
water Gnd sewer lines, and the advantages definitely outweigh the
disadvantages, among which include better fire protection,
upgrading the property vues and, most importA-nt, unpolIuted
mate— for everyone mhu has the option to hook into the Town's
water system.
