The meeting came to order at 7 : 10 pm
The joint meeting was called for convenience to respond timely to a Town of Covert request for
comment .
It was stated that Property owner Robert Weatherby is not present. The board members have
been informally looking at the sketches, short form environmental assessment form, survey, and
discussing the issues of water coming from the village system.
The question was asked will a 6 inch line need to be put in ? Yes . A septic system will need to be
approved and installed also .
It was stated that this meeting was requested by the Town of Covert so that if the Boards have
any information to pass on to them they may do so .
It was asked if a contract with Mr. Weatherby exists? Mr. Colvin replied. Yes there is, and it will
be accepted contingent upon water service availability, and the town of Covert allowing them to
build the facility.
It was then asked when the title will be taken ? Mr. Colvin answered upon approval of the plan. It
was then asked when the Legion will be prepared to begin after approval and what their time
schedule is for building .
Mr. Colvin indicated that they are planning to begin immediately and be under construction
possibly by next fall.

It was then discussed that the access driveway should be on Townline Rd. between the corner on
96 and the Dr. office.
It was stated that 3 ,5 acres would easily support a building of the magnitude that is being
suggested and that it is in good proximity to the town. Mr. Colvin stated that Mr. Weatherby has
contacted both of the adjacent property owners the Dr. office and the Baptist church. Parking will
be adjacent to the Dr. office and the hours that the Legion will be used will not conflict with that
of the adjacent owners Dr, office and Baptist church
It was asked what will be happening with the 8" drainage line shown on the map, the response
was that it will be moved because the ground is somewhat wet and fill will be required .
It was noted that the building would create a buffer between the Baptist Church and the Dr. office
as well as being the good use of an odd shaped lot . It was determined that there was no intention
of a entrance on Rte. 96 and they will have access to the 50 foot right of way.
The Boards strongly recommend that the Town of Covert proceed with all diligent effort the
only condition being that the access driveway as shown on the map be on Townline Rd. not on
Rte . 96 , and this unanimous Resolution should be duly communicated to The Town of Covert .
The hearing was concluded at 7 : 25
7 : 30 Mr. Weatherby has arrived late to add more on the sewer septic issue . A neighboring
parcel to the church is having trouble with their septic and is interested in hooking into the village
system. There is a possibility of the Legion joining with some other neighbors to extend the
existing line from Bradley St .
