CITIZEN PRIVILEGE OF THE FLCIOR
Dan Seewald, 51 Yellow Barn Rd - there has been a problem for a
period. of time and has never been addressed because no one wants
to take the responsibility of doing anything about a little creek
that is called tributary 15A of Fall Creek. Gave board members a
map to show the location so they can get the feel as to what the
people on Yellow Barn Road are confronted with. The elevation
difference and the force of the water that comes down Yellow Barn
Road is deteriorating their property, causes flooding, property
damage. The property owner is responsible for whatever the creek
may cause. It is my understanding the county has a $37,500.40
budget involved in giving it to the municipalities. I am here
tonight to let the town board know there is a problem here and
' some day it will have to be addressed. We are in it together and
I am willing to take the responsibility as a property owner as
long as the town and county are willing to fulfill their
obligations. If these funds are available I think we should take
a hard look at what the problem is. If the town board needs more
evidence of the damage this little creek causes I have a video
tape and would be happy to make a copy of it. The proof is in the
pudding and the pudding is on the film of the tremendous force of
the water that comes down the creek. There are many versions as
to why the water comes down with such a force partially because
of the elevation. There is another version as to the number of
residents that are south of Ferguson Road have diverted the seater
into that creek area which has created the abundance of water. In
any case I would welcome the town board to take a hard look at it
and if there are funds forth coming maybe we can do something
together, not as individuals but together.
Ernie Balducci, 37 Yellow Barn Rd - I would also like to support
what Dan has just said. The last flood we had a year ago January
in the back of my residence the stream actually changed course
and did some erosion. I would be glad to give any one a tour of
where the bed of the stream is within a few inches of the level
of my back lawn. It has cut and filled itself to a degree that I
have had flooding in my basement. I will be willing do to my part
also if the town and county could see fit to help us out if these
funds are available.

Rage 2
Supv Schug - wanted to know about soil and conservation service.
Ernie Balducci - they have tried going through the state and we
were not high enough on the priority list for them to do anything
for us.
Supv Schug - what Co. Rep. Lane was talking about were funds the
county had set aside last year and talking about doing it every
year. Between the town and the village we set up a storm water
project. The county did give $12,000.00 for work on the creek
near Penny Lane. There are people there who have gotten money
from soil and water and that money will be included in the
project which is moving forward. If something was to be done
easements, agreement to pay so that everyone would chip in to pay
for their portion of the stream bank stabilization.
Ernie Balducci - I think we are at the stage right now.
Dan
Seewald
- there

hearing.
Supv Schug - they set that amount of money aside and then split
it up between everyone who asks for that money. The town has
already applied to use some of that money for Pinckney Road. We
will have another meeting with the village mayor. We also, will
put in for the money and make Yellow Barn Road a priority.
Dan Seewald - I am concerned as to what has transpired over the
last 3 years that this is going to create a bigger problem for
everybody.
Supv Schug - the town is responsible for 20 feet away from the
bridge.
Dan
Seewald

over the last several years.
Supv Schug - when someone builds a house upstream it does create
more run off.
Clp Grantham - runoff increases due to the increase in impervious
surface area when and area is developed, and that the effect
increases flooding, erosion and property damage, particularly in
floodplains.

Supv
Schug
- asked
Dan
Seewald to provide a copy of the videotape
of flooding
to the
Town
Board.
Dan Seewald - will make a copy of video tape for board members to
review at next board meeting.
Jim Howe - Nature Conservancy - Malloryville Bog - I would also
like to ask the boards support for this preserve in the form of a
resolution. We are a non profit private organization since 1951.
There are 900,000 members nationwide and have protected 10
million acres of land. Our mission is biological diversity, which
is to protect rare plants and animals. We do not take sides in
political issues. We believe that free market solutions work best
to environmental issues. We are science based. All of our
programs are based on science and try to understand the needs of
the resource before any action is taken. We are partner focused
and try to work closely with land owners, businesses and
communities,
Jim Howe - gave beard members copy of map concerning Malloryville
Swamp. There is a new preserve that the conservancy has acquired
in the Town of Dryden near Malloryville. This fall we began our
project in the Malloryville area and did purchase the gravel pit
area along with three other properties around it with a
conservation easement with development rights on the property.
All together we have about 200 acres and another 75 acres of
it conservation easement. We think this is an asset to the community
since it is open public space. We also think it is an
environmental education resource for schools. We plan on
developing this property with trails and a parking lot to make it
more accessible. We tried to seek funding from the NYS Parks
Office and they required support from local town government.

I've not received any word, whether or not, DEC has issued a
mining permit for this project. I did talk with Roy Reeves,
owner operator of RMS Gravel who indicated minor plan
revisions would be necessary to MRLR application which are
being completed now. He hoped for final DEC approval by the

October 597 Report Page Two
Zoning Board of Apppal 5: The ZBA met on 10/7/97. On their
agenda were (2) requests, each somewhat unique. Qrrw required
a ZBA interpretation 'and the second project, review by
Article 1700, pre�exi5ting nonconforming use.
The first nearing required a zoning interpretation of the
requirement for there to exist a primary structure on a
parcel prior to there being an accessary use structure built.
In this case*, I had rejected an application requesting a
building permit to construct a private storage horse barn.
In my under>tanding the barn would be an accessory use
structure. Since there was not a primary use stricture
existing on the parceI7 1 rejected the applicatiOn upOn which
decision, the applicant appealed to the ZBA_
The ZBA was advised by legal cOUn�il, "this was not a
variance request but was a zoning interpretation ". After a
careful review, the Board concluded there was nothing
specific in the Zoning Ordinance that requires there to be a
primary strLjctur�e existing on a parcel pr-iQr tq the permitted
construction of an accessory use structure as long as the
desired use of the structure appeared within the zone
permitted use list. The Board further determined, "these two
definitions were simply a means to identify structure
types ". This structure was simply a private garage / storage
building which is found as a permitted use within the RR
Zoning District and shQLLId be granted a construction permit
if plans and setbacks conformed.
The second hearing was a request, Under Article 17,
Nonconforming Preexi5ting uses, to make a channe of that use

As you may not or not recall, the IR approval was completed
under the provision of NYS General Municipal Law Section 281

setbacks and other similar zoning regulations providing it
does not compromise the local density and related
requirements.
With advise from Town Attorney Perkins, the Board advised
Peregrine Partners, "once the Board has completed a 291

SECTION 1: Title
This local law shall be referred to as the "Moratorium for the

SECTION 2: Purpose
_ The Town of Dryden Zoning Ordinance establishes zoning
districts and regulations concerning the use of land and
structures. The statutory grant of power to regulate the use of
land and structures includes among the purposes of such regulation
promoting the health, safety, morals or the general welfare of the
community. The Town Board is concerned that the lack of specific
regulation of adult uses of land and structures may result in the
attempted establishment of an adult use in an undesirable location.
The Town Board also recognizes that there are important
constitutional issues and protections which must be identified and
addressed in any regulation of adult uses. In order to address all
concerns and issues in a lawful, thoughtful and reasoned manner the
Town Board determines that it must declare a moratorium on the
establishment of such uses pending the. review and enactment of
appropriate legislation regulating the same.
SECTION 3: Definitions
(A) Adult use. An adult use is the use of land or structures
for an "adult entertainment business" or an "adult physical contact

visual media, or used for presenting, lending, or
selling books, magazines, publications,
photographs, or any other written materials
distinguished or characterized by an emphasis on
matter depicting, describing or relating to
"specific sexual activities" or "specific anatomical
areas" as hereafter defined.
(C) Adult physical contact establishment. Any establishment
which offers or purports to offer massage, whether or not licensed,

Clp Grantham - I have invited Lonny Palmieri representative for
the Owasco Lake Watershed and also invited Janet Hawks a
representative from the Cayuga Lake Watershed network for the Dec
9th board meeting.
Supv Schug - if you look at our budget based on last years vs
this year for the youth commission and recreation it did go down.
The reason for that is the two villages spend the money on
projects and we get nothing. If they pay it then we don't have it
to spend and they back it up. If they go beyond that point I have
asked them come back to the town to explain why they need the
additional funds. It really hasn't dropped because the two
villages were picking up the difference between the $47,000.00 we
pay and the $68,000.00 available.
