PUBLIC HEARING
SPECIAL PERMIT APPLICATION OF
ADVANCED DESIGN CONSULTING, INC.
111 CORTLAND ROAD
Supv Trumbull opened the public hearing at 7:00 p.m. and Town Clerk B Hollenbeck
read the notice published in The Ithaca. Journal.
Gary Wood, Engineer for applicant, said the revised plan they had worked on was not
available because of printer problems. They have moved the access somewhat north and are
planning just two buildings on the property. He said he understood that access to Route l.3
was a concern, but it is important to his client that the building be located on Route 13. The
NYS Resident Engineer seems to have no problem with that other than some minor details and
they will proceed to secure that permit. He said it makes sense from an engineering standpoint
because if there is any traffic generated, the state road is better able to handle that traffic than
a local road.
G Wood said it has come to his attention
be an issue. He pointed out that in the past the
area and there are several commercial developm

Vladimir Dragan, of North Road and proprietor of Book Barn of the Finger Lakes, said
the project should not be approved. The Town should look at the corridor north of the Village
as more of a green corridor unlike Route 13 south of the Village toward Ithaca. He said he has
been asked to apply for historic status for his property, and received a preservation award for
his property from Historic Ithaca in 1994. He understands the nearby LewLin Farm has
applied for a conservation grant. Because of its close proximity to TC3, the property could
have a related use and he doesn't believe a manufacturing facility is that use.

He is

TB 4 -12 -07
concerned about where the runoff from the parking areas will go and whether it: will affect the
wells in the area. He is concerned that the building may be a "metal skin building' and said
those types of buildings rust. He asked that the board not change the character of the
neighborhood.
V Dragan said he would like to see the Environmental Assessment Form for the project.
Mike Lane said V Dragan raises some legitimate issues and we need to be careful with
long range planning and what the community will look like in a few years. Route 13 from TC3
north is in real danger of turning into Route 13 from Dryden south, which is overburdened
with driveways. lie suggested the Town think about access roads that parallel or otherwise
eliminate the need for driveways. Development in that area, particularly with the need for
wager and sewer, needs to be planned not for a particular business, but needs to be planned
for 50 years. He said he hopes people will take the time to look at this and see what we really
want to have developed and how to develop it.
D Kwasnowski said both buildings need to be considered at once. The traffic study
should include a combined analysis of proposed development in the Empire Zone and TCTs
master plan. He said that M Lane's idea of an access road is a good one and the applicant's
site could be the beginning of that. As for the type of development, light manufacturing is
desirable if you want to develop industry at all in your community. It is a very clean industry
even though the buildings are relatively large. There is not a lot of waste. He said right now
the stormwater controls appear to be sized appropriately and are mandated by the state. He
said this is a great opportunity for the Town.
TG Miller's recommendations in their letter of April 9 have been shared with the
• applicant and are self - explanatory.
ZO Slater said that his office has worked with the applicant since last August. and they
are helping to refine the project in a way that it works in this area. The likelihood of municipal
water and sewer in the area is not good. The project as designed can be done with onsite water
and sewer facilities and the applicant is willing to do so. There are several items still missing
from the application. They need a report from NYS DOT. No response has been received from
Tompkins County Health Department on the latest plan. NYS DEC has not responded to any
correspondence to date, but it is clear the applicant will need a stormwater management plan
for the site. They need a final site plan and approvals from all other involved agencies. His
office agrees this is the type of industry the Town should be looking for. The main reason he
put the matter on the agenda for tonight was to get some interface project -wise and some
feedback from the community. Cl Stelick said he would like to see a complete application, and
that it would be helpful for the neighbors.
Gary Wood said there would be access to the site from North Road and V Dragan
expressed concern for this, saying that people would then use that to cut through to Route 13,
Alex Deyheim of ADC apologized for not having a complete application, gave a brief
history of the company, and talked of the projects they are currently working on. He invited
anyone to visit them at their current location in Lansing, and said that community is very
important to them. He has spoken with Carl Haynes of TC3 and TC3 is supportive of them
coming to the community. Cl St:elick explained that the Board would like to act on this matter,
but they need a complete application.
The hearing was left open at 7:35 p.m.
• I'odd Miller of USGS gave a powerpoint presentation on the aquifer study that USGS is
conducting of the Virgil Creek valley, the most heavily used aquifer in Tompkins County, that
Page 2 of
113 4- 12 -07
is stretches from the Village of Dryden to the County line toward Harford. The study involves test
drilling where existing well records are not available, seismic refraction which maps the depth
of bedrock or t:he thickness of the unconsolidated material, and collecting wager samples.
There is now technology available to date groundwater and determine how old it is by
measuring the concentration of chlorofluorocarbons (refrigerants and propellants used in
aerosol cans which were banned in the 90's). They do a lot of groundwater level
measurements. Because you can't see where water flows, it all has to be done mathematically
and it starts with a groundwater measurement.
`there are three aquifers in the Virgil Creek Valley, two above and one below the
bedrock. A well was drilled at the DEC Fishing Access site at Dryden Lake. They hit sand and
gravel at 170' and stopped at 230'. They performed an aquifer test for ten hours and this well
was pumping 400 gallons a minute and there was a draw down in the well of only about 40'.
Water samples were taken throughout the area to correlate the depth of the wells with an
aquifer. There are three aquifers in the valley. One is 30 -50'; one is about 80 -100' and the
deeper one is down about 200'. Water quality in the area is very good, with little or no surface
contamination from fertilizer or septic tanks. The source of recharge for the deepest aquifer is
the area of the Donald H. Crispell Dam.
T Miller gave a demonstration of the model they are now constructing and how it can be
used to det.ennine where contaminated water may flow.
M Lane said he thought this was a very informative presentation. Cl Stelick thanked
the previous Town Supervisor, Mark Varvayanis, and the previous Town Board for having the
vision to initially begin this study, noting that the County came on board later in the process.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT /DPW
Jack Bush reported that he is waiting for the county bid on road striping to come out.
We have received notification from NYS DOT that the speed limit reduction request for Baker
Hill Road was approved and the road will be posted for 40 mph.
Appalachian Geophysical Services, LLC has contacted the Highway Superintendent
asking permission to test along side seventeen sections of road in the Town for looking for
potential drilling spots for natural gas. J Bush said he had talked with another Highway
Superintendent who has experience with this company and received a good report. Atty
Perkins said the Highway Superintendent would have to grant a work permit for this purpose,
and given the extent of the testing, the Town should probably ask the company for an
undertaking and insurance in the event of any damages. A representative of the company said
they could provide the necessary documentation and have the necessary permits from the
State, County and surrounding towns. Atty Perkins will work with J Bush to secure the
necessary documents.
J Bush said bids had been opened for a new grader. Low bid is higher than he had
budgeted, but the loader that was recently purchased was lower than budgeted, and will cover
the increased cost for the grader. He asked the board to amend the amount previously
authorized for the grader.

J Bush said the department has a 1972 Cat D5 Dozer that was used quite a bit the last
few years and is in need of repair. After considering the cost of repair, the cost to replace and
the cost of rental, he is recommending the dozer be sold. They will rent: one in the future when
the need arises. He can review the matter in a few years and decide whether, based on the
need, it makes sense to purchase one again.
RESOLUTION #73 - SELL DOZER

J Bush said starting Monday, providing we don't get a snowstorm, they will begin taking
out the tree stumps where the new sewer line will be. They hope to finish the sewer line in
about a month's time then move on to installation of the flows meters on Lee Road. The end of
June or beginning of July they will do the access drive for the new town hall, and then move on
to repair of the bridge on the Freeville Trail. in August they will build the parking lot for the
Finger Lakes Land Trust on Ellis Hollow Creek Road. In September they will finish putting the
concrete floor in their new addition. There will be other work to do also.
The access road to the new town hall will be approximately 35' from the property lines.
Between the road and the property lines will be a sewer line and fiber optic line running from
the new building to the old town hall building, J Bush said he is hoping to be able to
transplant some of the trees to create a buffer area. He would like to see this drive only used
for emergency reasons or for easy access between buildings for Highway /DPW staff. The slope
•will be to the north so that water drains to a Swale and into a retention pond.

• COUNTY BRIEFING
Martha Robertson reported there is group called the County Sustainability Team that
has been working on ways they can suggest the County change policies or practices to be more
"green ", such as using biofuel, purchasing energy star products, finding more energy efficient
vending machines, and changing habits of employees at work (turni.ng off lights, etc). Cheryl
Nelson of Public Works heads the group.
There will be a public information meeting on the Route 13/366 Corridor Study on April
25 at 6:00 p.m. at the Village Mall.
Mike Hattery said he had previously expressed some concerns about the status of
subscriber equipment for the new communication system. Fie said county staff has met with
both the fire and police sides and they are pretty close to an agreement. It appears there is
sufficient funding for the first round of equipment. M Robertson noted that it hasn't actually
gone to committee yet.
Cl Sumner said her understanding is that some Dryden fire departments feel they need
more equipment, but all in all are pretty happy.

ATTORNEY
Atty Perkins said he has received the paperwork to close on the Parke -Dabes property.
The survey has been completed and he will be reviewing the paperwork and probably
scheduling a closing within the next week or ten days.
Kevin Ezell has provided a memo and pictures regarding several unsafe structures in
the Town and reviewed them with the board. The structure at 282 Bradshaw Road has been
removed and the owners of 972 Dryden have been moving to restore the structure to a safe
condition. The owners of 1825 Peniville Road have said they will begin work on their structure
in the next few months. The owners of 252 Dryden - Harford Road have applied for a permit.
There is also a structure of concern on Cortland Road and he will contact the owner. He
recommends that the board take action with respect to the properties at 1.995 and 2242
Drvden Road.
With respect. to 1995 and 2242 Dryden Road, Atty Perkins proposed that, prior to the
annexation hearing next week, the board can pass a resolution pursuant to the Town's local
law regarding unsafe structures. The resolution will determine that the structures are unsafe
and dangerous and will order demolition and removal and provide for a notice to be served on
the property owners. It will also set a public hearing, probably for May. The notice will contain
a description of the premises, the particulars on why the structure is unsafe or dangerous, and
outline how they are to be made safe and secure (in both cases demolished and removed). The
local law requires they commence work within 30 days and that it be completed within 60
• days. if the owners don't do it, the Town will cause the removal at the expense of the owners,
to be assessed on their taxes. Atty Perkins will provide proposed resolutions to the board prior
to the meeting next week.

ONIIYC* OFFICER
O Slater said he had been working on the furniture assessment for the new building
(furnished to all board members )_ He consulted vendors on the state bid listing and one
particular vendor was very helpful. Because the estimated expense is well within the amount
set aside for furnishings, he would like to move forward. He said the town could either bid this
out or buy off state contract_ Cl Stelick said it made sense to purchase off state contract_ M
Lane suggested the Town check with Tompkins County Purchasing, They may have some
advice on how best to proceed_ ZO Slater will do that and repQri: to the board next week.
ZO Slater has provided the board with information on in- St %rViee training for the
Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals_ State guidelines now require Planning Board
and Zoning Board members receive four hours of training annually unles% the Town desires to
waive the requirement. The Town of Dryden has legislation in place for training for each board
that are slightly different, as well as attendance requirements. Nine of tw6ve board members
have satisfied the state requirement this year. They, together with five: staff members, attended
training hosted by Cortland County Planning, ZO Slater would like to get a group together to

The Board discussed the Cayuga Press 14U lose Cl Sumner said she agreed with CI
Makar that the interest rate should be increased and that the loan won't be called prior to
March 31, 2008, and if it is called there would be 90 days notice. Cl Sumner said that because
Cayuga Press is in default of the terms of the Ioan by leaving theTown of Dryden, that the
interest rate could be adiusted at any time_ Atty Perkins noted the Town would have; to
formally give Cayuga Press notice of the default. He said the reasonable thing to do is say we
understated they have left, Lve are not calling you in default, but here is what we are proposing
and here is the corresponding modification agreement, if the document is not returned within
a certain period of time the Town will consider them in default and proceed. He said they
should be given a reasonable opportunity to respond. Cl Makar said he has had people ask
him why the note was not being called in now, and this is a pretty generous offer. Cl Sumner
said she would like to tie the interest rate to what we would be getting if we were investing the
money. After further discussion the board agreed to increase the rate to 4% from %, that thr_
loan wouldn't be called until at least April 30, 2008, that if the loan were called due there
would 90 days notice, acid if the interest rate were to change there would be 30 days notice.
Atty Perkins will draft documents for the hoard to review.

centers applied for and received $2,000 last year. In addition the Ellis Hollow Community
Censer applied for $500 for concerts last summer, Thera: is $16,540 left. He proposes to divide
that equally between the four community centers, and deduct the $500 Ellis I3ollow has
already received. The funds can be used for programs, maintenance or infrastructure_ To
apply for this additional funding, thcy must submit a report on how the initial 2,000 was
