to put them up . It was decided to wait until we have approval from

ing it and the cost for this would be around $ 15 . 00 . Councilman Ogden
will look into this and report at a laterrBoard Meeting .
It was suggested at this time that since the Town Hall is so busy nights
with the Justice Court Monday and Friday , Planning Board Meetings , Town
Board Meetings etc that committees interested in using the Hall clear with

evening as has happened many times in the pase , and a calendar could be
made up in advance and mailed to the different committees .

I . Money and securities coverage should be added to the SMP policy . I recommend
coverage of $2 , 000 . 00 cash and checks inside and outside , on an annual basis .
In addition , the coverage would be increased from $2 , 000 . 00 to $20 , 000 . 00 for
the period January 1 to March 31 of each year . This coverage also includes
Depositors Forgery of $2 , 500 . 00 . The annual coat for this coverage is $ 166 . 00 .
With your approval , this will be added to the policy at a cost of $23 . 00 to
June . 1 , 1968 .
II . I recommend you consider a Faithful Performance Blanket Bond covering all Town
employees not now required by State law to furnish an individual bond . The
penalty of this bond would be $ 15 , 000 . 00 , and the annual cost is $ 130 . 00 .

Varna , New York
Dear Mr . Lee :
We know that the Dryden Town Board is interested in eliminating
environmental health hazards in the Varna area and that you , •
living in this area , are even more conscious of the needs for a
proper sewage disposal system .
Taggin ' Wagon Park has not connected to the community water system
based upon the advice of their engineer , to which the Health Dept .
has agreed until the sewage collecting system is made available
to them and laid throughout the park . There are problems of sewage
disposal in the park which are a constant health hazard .
Recognizing the environmental hazards in the Varna area , the Tompkins
County Board of Health at its meeting on February 6 passed the
enclosed resolution with the request that it be forwarded to all
parties involved ; i . e . , Town of Dryden , Town of Ithaca , and Cornell
University . The resolution was passed in the hope of stimulating
the parties involved and the expediting of construction of the
sewage collecting system in this area .
Very truly yours ,
t..341-fa 13A-Ira/4
