COUNTY BRIEFING Co Rep Watros - reported that the County has applied for federal funding to replace the Pinckney Road bridge . The County has been notified that they will be receiving those funds . It will be replaced by about 1988 , for about • $ 800 , 000 .00 in terms of federal expense . For the County it will be about . $50 , 000 . 00 `CTTTZEIc PRIVILEGE ' OF • THE ' FLODR Robin Remeck , Director of the SPCA - was present and wanted to answer any questions that the Board might have from last months meeting ' and asked that the Board consider to negotiate their contract . Supv Cotterill - did not think that the Board had any questions that needed to be answered ; The Board has - made a decision to hire Lorraine Bard for the year of 1986 . Supv Cotterill , was impressed with Robin ' s remarks and felt that i'f the Board had this indication before this year , there would be a possibility that the Board would not be looking elsewhere for dog control . The Board did not have any indication that things were going to change at the SPCA until last month.. The Board has been trying to come up with a solution since last June . Robin -• i'f things do not work out with Lorraine Bard , she would like the Town Board to keep the SPCA in mind . Mr Aldendorff , 1200 Dryden Rd - asked the Town Boardior an extension of time to get . ri.d of his junk vans . There was considerable discussion . Supv Cotterill - action would have been appropriate in Sept and the Town has been very lenient . because Mr Aldendorff had a variance hearing in Aug and he has- known then that he would not be able to leave the vans there . As far as he is concerned , he is ' not willing to give any extension ' of time to move the ,vans, either comply or the Board will have to take action . Clm Garlock wondered why he came to the Board and try and talk the Board out of this situation . Why didn ' t he just plan to move the vans and there wouldn ' t be this discussion . He was also not if favor of granting the extension of time . Atty Perkins' - for the record Mr Aldendorff called him on Sunday at his home and he had suggested to Mr Aldendorff that he might encounter this very opinion and that he might just plan on - moving the vans rather than asking the Board for an extension . Supv Cotteri' iV - the Board is not in favor- of granting an - extension of time and that they should be removed immediately or the Town Board will authorize the Zoning Officer to turn it over the the Town Court . Atty Perkins- - asked Mr Aldendorff if the other violations hp been taken care of : 1 - the electricity has been disconnected fromthe two vans; /refrigerators stored outside have been properly taken care of ; 3 -all unregistered motor vehicles been removed; 4 - all junk , used 'building material , rubbish and debris have been removed ; 5- that the yurt is no longer being occupied and that the clivus multrum septic disposal system is disconnected and rendered inoperable . Mr Aldendorff -• everything was taken care of except that there are the two vans , and his tehhants are going to get rid of the unregistered vehicles and he has a little more junk to take to the dump . • . . .. . . , , .
