No others present.
Supervisor Austic called the meeting to order at 7 :45pm. Mr. Austic reviewed the
application of Susan & Tom Sheridan for the proposed "New Guest House at
Taughannock Farms Inn". He stated that it would make more sense to include all three
parcels in a change of zoning.
Mr. Austic explained that this would be a change in the zoning to parcel #s 14- 1 - 11 , 14-
3- 18 . 1 and 14-3- 18.2 to a B1 Business District. The use of these parcels is in the keeping
with the goals and objectives identified in the Ulysses Comprehensive Land Use Plan
adopted by the Town in April of 1999 under Cl Commercial. Seeing that the Town has
not completed their new zoning ordinance a Cl zone has not been designated this request
would fall under a B1 Business District in the existing ordinance. This was also the
general consensus of the other two board members present .
Mrs. Duddleston moved, seconded by Ms. Poelvoorde the following :
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Ulysses sets a Public Hearing
for July 246, 2001 at 7 PM in the Town Hall 10 Elm Street, Trumansburg, NY for
the purpose of hearing public comments on the proposed zoning change for parcel
#s 14- 1 - 11 , 14-3 - 18 . 1 and 14-3 - 18 .2 to be changed to a Bl Business District as
stated in Article IV, Section 3A of the Ulysses Zoning Ordinance.
FURTHER RESOLVED that the Town Board will review the SEQR for this
change.

Adopted.
Mother matter brought before the Board was a request from the Trumansburg Area
Chamber of Commerce to share the cost of radio advertisements of events happening in
the Town of Ulysses and Village of Trumansburg. The cost of this would be one-half of
$ 132. The Board stated that this expense was included in the 2001 budget. Mrs. Georgia
will advise the Chamber.
Mr. Austic stated that the Board would have to put together a presentation for the Town
of Ithaca and the City of Ithaca requesting water. It has come to his attention that some
members of these boards have concern for development if water is to be extended. Ms.
Poelvoorde feels that with an explanation of the town' s comprehensive plan it will make
them more comfortable. The board will work on this.
Hearing no further business Mrs. Duddleston moved, seconded by Ms. Poelvoorde to
adjourn the meeting. Hearing no objection the meeting was adjourned at 7 :45 PM.
Respectfully submitted,
Marsha L. Georgia
Ulysses Town Clerk
