Hatfield, Clm Hatfield, Clm Roberts, Atty Perkins and Z.O. Slater 0 Approval of the minutes: Motion was made by Clm Roberts and 2nd by Clm Baker that minutes of the town board meeting on 2 -7 -95 be approved. COUNTY BRIEFING C. the Carried Ken Thompson - I am here in regards as to the same reason last time regarding some minutes of a board meeting last October where it was reported that I allegedly made some remarks regarding leachate collection tanks at the Caswell Road landfill. I am back here tonight to unequivocally and categorically deny that in having ever made any such remarks. I would request that the board add an amendment at the very least to those October meetings reflecting that I am here this evening and did deny those so that there would be something with those minutes so that anyone picking the minutes up would see that as well. I don't know if that is possible under Roberts Rules or whatever, but I would like to make the request. Simply from the standpoint these minutes from the October meeting are a separate entity and people reading those minutes may never know and read the minutes from this meeting and have an erroneous picture. 6 a� E i • • NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED LOCAL LAW NO, 1 OF THE YEAR 1995 LEGAL NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Town Board of the Town of Dryden will hold a public hearing at the Town Hall, 65 East Main Street, Dryden, New York, on April 11, 1995, at 7:30 o'clock P.M., prevailing time, to hear all interested persons for or against a proposed local law providing a procedure for the withdrawal of retained percentages from contract payment amounts withheld to i certain contractors under public works contracts upon the deposit of certain obligations in lieu of such retained amounts. The complete text of the proposed local law is available from the Town i Clerk 65 East Main St. Dryden, New York 13053, Town Board of the Town of Dryden by Susanne L i I TB4 -11 -95 Page 2 Supv Schug - it would be possible to put an asterisk in those minutes. Atty Perkins - the official function of keeping the minutes is that of the town clerk and if she sees fit to do that she can do that. Town Clerk Lloyd - agreed to make the notation in the October 1994 minutes. Ken Thompson - I would also like to make it reflect that was hearsay information and not based on fact. Thank you again for listening to me. Co. Rep. Lane - at the last county board meeting was discussed the Biggs building. There has been a space study done by a committee over the last year as to what the needs of the social services department are as far as space and whether or not it makes sense to renovate either minimum (about 2 million dollars) or extensively (about 6 1/2 million dollars). The study found the more valuable option in the long run based on 25 year cost projection would be to construct a new building, which would have more useful space. The board was unanimous in voting not to consider renovation of the existing Biggs building. They are going to proceed to study the concept of building a new building either at the hospital campus or downtown or at some other •location. There seems to be a lot of support from the city to have the building in the downtown area. They have indicated they would be willing to participate in parking. Clm Baker - when the city said they will be willing to participate will they back that up with some documentation with the description of their willingness to participate. Co. Rep. Lane - I feel they will since they have passed a resolution indicating they will. Personally, I would like to see a contract as part of whatever is final before I would be convinced it should be downtown. The county would also have the option of building their own parking spaces and not building or taking part in a public parking ramp. Co. Rep. Evans - thought the county should have a contract with the city before they go to construction since they have had trouble with the city in the past. Supv Schug - has a request of Co. Rep. Lane and Co. Rep. Evans. There is a project the town is working on were plans were pretty well set and found out back in Sept. or Oct. the county passed a law regarding burying a house once it is torn down. The county law is where everything must be taken down to the center. Would it be possible, even though I get an agenda, to get a copy of •whatever is going to a vote, so the town will know what laws you are passing prior to and how it will affect us as a town. I TB4 -11 -95 Page 3 Co. Rep. Lane - I will see what I can do because sometimes they is do not get the laws as speedily as they would like to have them. Co. Rep. Evans - they are required to have them 7 days on their desk before they are to act on them and a lot of times they do not have them. Supv Schug - it would be nice to receive copies ahead of time so Atty Perkins could read the law over to see how it would affect the town so that we could give you input. Co. Rep. Evans - this is in the ordinance as to how you deal with solid waste and I thought you still had a legal right to bury a building. The discussion of Biggs A if the property is sold or the people move out of it is just that, bury it. I am surprised you can not bury a building now. thing Supv Schug - even for a single family house, up until the county passed the law you could bury the building on your property. The law now says that you can't do that. Ken Thompson - I don't know the fine points since it has been sometime since I have read the law and compared it with the 360 regulations. The only purpose you can put that many uses for is clean fill. The only thing that can be used from clean fill is asphalt products, concrete, and glass or those kind of things. Painted wood can not be used as clean fill. So it has to be some place that requires the fill. You just can't simply push it to the back side of the lot. It has to be a fill area, which is kind of tricky. Co. Rep. Evans - the wood has to be removed, is that state regulations. Ken Thompson - yes, he believes it is state regulations. Z.O. Slater - no, it has exempted 1 or 2 family homes and agricultural buildings. Supv Schug - there was someone who had a barn that was falling down and he checked with wanted to get rid DEC and it could of it. I be buried checked with on site. Henry who Co. Rep. Evans - you can bury it by DEC regulations but not county regulations. Co. Rep. Lane - there have been problems with burying. If you remember a few summers ago, a boy was killed in New Jersey. There had been construction demolition which had been buried on a site near an apartment complex. The ground gave way from rotting wood underneath and the child fell down in a hole and suffocated. So there have been problems with that, it is not cut and dry, out of sight out of mind. i I i TB4 -11 -95 Page 4 Ken Thompson - that is correct, you simply can't bury the is demolition on site to get rid of it. It has to be clean fill. Co. Rep. Lane - we will see what we can do about getting copies of the laws before they are acted on. Supv Schug - if we hadn't checked the town would have been blind I n the face with the county law and we don't want to do that, we want to cooperate and be law abiding citizens. Co. Rep. Evans - several weeks ago the solid waste committee, myself and Ken Thompson and some people from soil conservation looked over Caswell Road landfill issue of being able to putting any lagoons or wetlands in that area as a permanent solution for leachate. We hope the soil conservation department will design a wetlands over that area for us. Atty Perkins - is that a county course of action that you have selected. Co. Rep. Evans - to be solved by there the end is a published of this year. schedule calling for that That is predicated on the assumption that things have changed in Albany and DEC will make a decision in less than a year. Atty Perkins - the other options have been ruled out then. Co. Rep. Evans - the current options they are looking at is a lagoon or a wetland designed to correct the leachate. It doesn't strike me as being practical to run a line through to Freeville. They don't even know if Freeville would be willing to accept it under those circumstances as to what it would cost. The other alternative which is also expensive is increasing the number of tanks you still have to take off. The only thing that is more expensive is building a sewage treatment plant right on site. Assuming they can get the proper permits they will have a permanent solution. Supv Schug - that is a lot better than trying to pump it and spending good money after bad. Co. Rep. Evans - it is not possible to pump it and take it all away under certain conditions at certain times of the year. It is physically impossible to do that, so that clearly isn't a solution under any circumstances. My understanding is they run almost 24 hours a day and they can't keep ahead of it. Atty Perkins - how is a man made wetland or lagoon going to handle that. Co. Rep. Evans - it should be designed to handle that and know •what liquids are coming out. If it is built big enough and we have 50 acres to build it on, it shouldn't be a problem. b 50� E 6� TB4 -11 -95 Page 5 I I Supv Schug - Ken are you pumping now all during the year or are . you going in and pumping the tanks and checking it. Ken Thompson - yes, there maybe a few times during the dry season of the year where they might not be there for 4 or 5 days, but they go in there even then a couple of times a week. It is being logged daily, either someone from the county goes up to check the tank or the hauler themselves stops in. Clm C. Hatfield - wanted to know the status on cat licensing. Co. Rep. Evans - my committee meets Thursday and hopefully the SPCA will request that it be withdrawn. If it isn't it will go to the direction because the youth county board there will only be about 4 votes in favor. Clm Roberts - wanted to know how Mike and Charlie felt about it. Co. Rep. Lane - is opposed to it. Co. Rep. Evans - was also opposed since it only appears to be a mechanism to raise money. I do not feel where it has a public health benefit. CITIZENS PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR •Steve Kirsch - Dryden Youth Commission - since the start of this year they will have full membership on the commission. They have set some goals with subcommittees. They are looking at increasing and evaluation of existing programs and trying to identify youth needs. They are looking at existing school based surveys, community surveys, also original by laws which established the commission. They are also trying to reach out to the students that attend Ithaca schools. They are looking at evenings and weekends for programs for youth who are at risk. Funding increased slightly for them this year. Last year they returned a good deal of funds due to some changes in the Dryden Youth Pride staff. The personnel budget was under spent, but also some programs that took place in the past, such as the Camp Fire. Some of the programs they ran didn't exist this year and the money went unspent. I did not see that as a lack of need. They hope to have some new programs coming out. Supv Schug - the board would like to thank the Youth Commission for all of the hard work they are doing in helping to give the town direction because the youth are very important. Erica Evans - wanted the town board to know how pleased the majority of the people on Turkey Hill Road are with the people who are putting in the water and sewer. They are most careful and most considerate. 0 I TB4 -11 -95 Page 6 COUNCILMAN PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR Audit of 1994 books - Clm C. Hatfield has done the Town Clerk and Zoning Officer's books. The Justice Dept still has to be done. Clm Baker will do the Justice Dept. Supv. Schug would like this done before the next board meeting. ATTORNEY Atty Perkins - Howser vs Lok & Lim - no change Atty Perkins - Cortland Paving update - Z.O. Slater will comment on that later. Atty Perkins - drafted an amendment to an existing local law to expand the protection within the town, both under town law and general municipal law with respect to defects in creeks, bridges, highways or culverts to include sidewalks. Board members have not received a copy of the draft. Atty Perkins - there is a local law 1977 which partially addressed that subject. The intention of this is to expand the protection to keep it consistent. Supv Schug - this will lower our liability. There is a provision I n the law where Don has to be notified in writinv if there a •problem with the highway. The reason for the provision of sidewalks is some day a developer might put sidewalks in his development. Atty Perkins - zoning amendments for bed & breakfast. A memo went out to the board members and is up to what the board members want to do. Supv Schug - wanted to know forward with the change in breakfast. No action taken next board meeting. Supv Schug - the Recreation year program in the amount if the board members wanted to move the zoning ordinance for a bed & at this time and will be discussed at Partnership review - this is the 2 of 85,500.00 each year for recreation. Atty Perkins - felt that since this is a pilot project and the town is partly through the first year of the 2 year pilot project that the town might want to consider authorizing the supervisor to sign the agreement in its present form if satisfactory letters of understanding can be exchanged between the proposed partners setting forth 1- the understanding of issues that were raised in my letter and 2- making clear that this is not to be construed as a joint recreation commission. 67 I i 0 RESOLUTION N0. 125 (1995) Councilman Roberts offered the following resolution and asked for its adoption.

(1) DOS-239 (Rev. 7/90) e I I 1. Purpose. General Municipal Law Section 106 allows contractors with the Town of Dryden to substitute certain obligations, defined in such section, for amounts due contractors under public works contracts with the Town. General Municipal Law Section 106 -a permits the imposition of a service charge by the Town for receiving, handling and disbursing funds and coupons pursuant to General Municipal Law Section 106. The purpose of this local law is to establish a procedure for the safekeeping of obligations deposited with the Town and to establish a service charge for such safekeeping and the receiving, handling and disbursing funds and coupons due under such obligations. 2. Definitions. For the purposes of this local law the following terms shall have the meaning herein provided: (A) Contract shall mean a written contract between the Town and a contractor for the performance of a public works contract.

(A) When, pursuant to General Municipal Law Section 106, a contractor desires to substitute obligations for retained percentages the contractor shall notify the Town in writing of the exact nature of the obligations proposed to be tendered to the Town. (B) The supervisor shall then determine if such obligations are of a type, amount and character which can be substituted for retained percentages. The Supervisor shall also determine the market value of the obligations proposed to be tendered to the town by inquiry to a stock or bond brokerage firm which maintains a seat of the New York Stock Exchange and which firm has a place for the transaction of business in Tompkins County, New York. (C) The project engineer shall, from time to time as requested by the Town Supervisor, certify to the Supervisor the amount of the retained percentages due the contractor under the contract.

No interest or income collected by the Supervisor shall be paid over to any contractor who has not maintained obligations of a sufficient value to equal the amount of the retained percentage to which the Town is entitled. Upon compliance by the contractor with the requirements of this subsection the Supervisor shall pay over 6 `J 40 to any such contractor interest and income collected by the Supervisor and held by him pending compliance by the contractor with this subsection.

Hatfield Roll call vote - all voting Yes Jean Ryan - reported there has been a smooth transition with the Dryden Village Court to the Dryden Town Court. It has been discussed previously and looked into at one time, but with the increasing load of traffic court is the need of a public telephone. She would like the Town Board to see if a public telephone could be installed outside of the town hall, because now the people have to walk to the center of town to use the phone. She is concerned about the general public when people who are dropped off for court and told to come back in one hour and they are only here for 5 minutes. Now they want to use the phone to call back so the can be picked up. Now they have to walk to the center of town in the dark with no sidewalks or street lights. If it will not cost the town anything it would be a nice service for the public. Supv Schug - very good suggestion and the town board will look into the matter.
