plan, which included a group slide presentation on vegetation
appropriate for our area, followed by a series of block -by -block
walk - throughs with residents of the street, was extremely
successful. Input and communication flowed smoothly in both
directions and have resulted in a plan that we are very happy
with and of which we truly feel a part. We are confident that
the plan will indeed substantially mitigate the negative effects
of the Hudson Street Reconstruction Project on our neighborhood,
as was its intent. We thank the Mayor, Common Council, B.P.W.,
and D.P.W. for their support of this plan. It has gone, and will
continue to go, a long way in restoring a sense of trust and
cooperation between our neighborhood and the city.
Therefore, we the undersigned urge you to approve this
Comprehensive Relandscaping Plan for the Hudson Street area."
This petition contained 49 signatures. Further discussion on the
Hudson Street Relandscaping Plan was referred to the Committee of
the Whole.
COMMUNICATIONS AND HEARINGS OF PERSONS BEFORE BOARD:
The following people spoke in favor of continuing the free

Parking Garage:
John Taylor, 201 DeWitt Place
Neil Golder, 4th Ward Alderperson
Jay Menninger, President of Collegetown Merchants Association
Guy Gerard, 4th Ward Resident
Alderperson Blanchard read for the record a letter from
Alderperson Romanowski:
"Board of Public Works;
Mr. Hugh Hall of 112 Third Street called me this week to inform
me of a problem with his water bill. Copies of the bill and
correspondence are enclosed.
Apparently, the New York State Electric and Gas workmen, taking
part in the rebuilding of Third Street damaged Mr. Hall's water
service. The foreman from NYSEG, Mr. Martin J. DeSanto, spoke to
Mrs. Hall about the damage and left his card with her. He also
informed her that NYSEG has a reciprocal agreement with the City
to repair damage to either utility's equipment on a job such as
the Third Street rebuild.
Mr. Hall found out differently. He is now being billed for
repair of damage, which he says was caused by NYSEG. He has
already called Bill Gray and was told that he is responsible for
this bill, even though he is blameless.
I would appreciate it if the Board of Public Works investigated
this bill and if the facts are as stated by Mr. Hall, to not
require Mr. Hall to pay for it."
on a motion by Commissioner Cox and Seconded by Commissioner
Connor the matter was referred to the Water and Sewer Committee,
of the Board of Public Works ' to be discussed at the next
Committee of the Whole meeting.
Alderperson Blanchard also reported on a letter she received from
Mrs. Virginia Leonard of 215 Cliff Street. She stated that there
is a vacant lot on 217 Cliff Street, next to the Leonard home,
that used to have a house on it, but the house has been removed
and all that is left is an open basement. The lawn on this lot

is in disrepair. Mrs. Leonard requested that the owners of the
property be required to maintain this lot.
This matter was referred to the Building Department.
Alderperson Golder addressed the Board regarding a complaint he
received from Mr. Shadick on Cascadilla Park Road. Mr. Shadick
stated that the road drains onto his garden when it rains and
would like the City to construct a three foot long curb along the
road to prevent this.
This matter was referred to the Engineer's Office.
Guy Gerard, a Fourth Ward resident addressed the Board regarding
the establishment of an ad -hoc committee to review parking
(� management possibilities. Mr. Gerard feels that parking facility
users as well as neighborhood residents should be appointed to
this committee to offer their input.
m REPORT OF THE CITY ATTORNEY:
