Supervisor Thorpe offered privilege of the floor to Jim Mulherin.
Jim Mulherin apprised the Board he is the President of the Walden Oaks Homeowners
Association (WOHA) and represents more than 60 residents of the development who are
concerned about the impact the proposed Zoning Text Amendment and the proposed Super Wal-
Mart would have on the development.
IR
19 -7
JANUARY 05, 2005 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 2
Mr. Mulherin discussed ten reasons why the Board should require the proposed Super
Wal-Mart to move further south down the Route 13 corridor: 1) traffic and speed on Bennie
Road; 2) traffic on Route 13/Route 281; 3) 24-hour Noise; 4) lights from dusk to dawn; 5) dust,
odors and garbage; 6) low water pressure, which is already a problem in the development; 7)
increase in heat; 8) noise, dust, odors, traffic during at least 2-years of construction; 9) value of
the homes in the development; and 10) property taxes.
Mr. Mulherin commented that the Walden Oaks community has been experiencing a
large, welcomed increase of home building. The WOHA has created a clean, safe, high -quality
community for the residents and future families, and has accepted the higher tax -burden. The
community also has an active golf course that adjoins the development. The WOHA tries to
attract middle to high -income families to the development and to Cortlandville; not more
discount stores that attract low wages. He commented that the Town should be focusing on
high-tech business and maintaining the quality of life already established.
Mr. Mulherin read aloud a letter written by Kevin Murray, a resident of the Walden Oaks
community, regarding his opposition to the proposed Super Wal-Mart and the negative effects it
would have on the community.
Supervisor Thorpe suggested Mr. Mulherin submit Mr. Murray's letter to the Town
Planning Board, and commented that the time for public debate on the issue has not yet arrived.
Attorney Folmer stated there are two issues that must be addressed, which have not been
sufficiently addressed by the public. The Town has held public meetings concerning the Zoning
Law changes in which discussion revolves around Wal-Mart rather than the Zoning Law.
Attorney Folmer acknowledged Wal-Mart's proposal to construct a Super Wal-Mart on the
Route 13 polo field. As presently structured, the Zoning Law would permit the construction of a
Super Wal-Mart on the site. The fact that the Zoning Ordinance would permit the construction
of a Super Wal-Mart does not mean it will be built.
Attorney Folmer stated there is a site plan review process for Super Wal-Mart's Planned
Unit Development (PUD) application, which will go before the Town Planning Board. At that
time, issues such as traffic, noise, and impacts on surrounding lands and communities will be
reviewed. Attorney Folmer assured Mr. Mulherin that the Planning Board members have raised
similar concerns.
Attorney Folmer informed Mr. Mulherin that the proposed Super Wal-Mart PUD would
still have to go before the Town Board in order for an Aquifer Protection Permit to be issued. If
the proposed Zoning Text Amendment is adopted, it does not mean Super Wal-Mart's
application will be approved.
Mr. Mulherin questioned whether the polo field was presently zoned industrial or
business, and whether the present zoning would accommodate a retail company. He also
questioned whether there were limits on the hours of operation in the current zoning ordinance.
Attorney Folmer did not believe there were any limits on the hours of operation as the
Zoning Ordinance is today. The parcel is presently zoned Industrial, while the Zoning Text
Amendment suggests the parcel be rezoned to Business.
Steve Lissberger, a resident of Coventry Lane, apprised the Board he recently purchased
his property in the Walden Oaks development knowing that the polo field was vacant, and also
knowing that the polo field was zoned Industrial. Mr. Lissberger voiced his concern about the
proposed Super Wal-Mart and the fact that his property borders the polo field property. He
questioned what he could do to express his concerns about the proposal, and his concerns
regarding the adverse affects on his property. He suggested Wal-Mart move its operation further
down Route 13 where there would be less of an impact on the surrounding properties.
Mr. Lissberger apprised the Board he was a Cortland City Council member in the past
and was aware that if he waited to voice his concerns at the public comment period that the work
would already be done for the site. He asked the Board give deep thought regarding the negative
impact that the site would have on its surroundings.
Attorney Folmer stated the Planning Board, in particular, has attempted to gather as much
public comment as possible, and will continue to ask for more comments. The most current draft
of the Zoning Text Amendment is presently before the County Planning Board. The County
Planning Board will make recommendations to the Town at their meeting later this month. The
most recent version of the Zoning Text Amendment incorporated the twenty-one suggestions
made by County Planning Board. Once the County makes its recommendations, the Town is
then required to give notice. Notice of the Zoning Ordinance will be sent to the Cortland
Standard, the City of Cortland, Village of Homer, and the Village of McGraw. Another public
hearing would be held.
Attorney Folmer stated the Town Board would not conduct the public hearing and adopt
the ordinance the same night. "The work is not all done before the public hearing is conducted."
The types of issues raised by Mr. Mulherin and Mr. Lissberger.will be addressed. Although the
JANUARY 05, 2005 ' TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 3
concerns may not be germane to the Zoning Ordinance itself, they may be germane to the site
plan review that the Planning Board will discuss, and may be germane to the SEQR review that
the Town Board will conduct. There would be more opportunity for public input.
Councilman Testa apprised Mr. Mulherin and Mr. Lissberger that when Wal-Mart first
approached the Board about purchasing the polo field on Route 13 to construct the super center,
the Board made the statement that they may consider the proposal if they moved the super center
further down Route 13.
Mr. Mulherin thanked the Board for their time and explained that he wants to be
informed and involved for himself and for the rest of the homeowners in the Walden Oaks
development.
Attorney Folmer stated it was important for Mr. Mulherin to understand that the Zoning
Ordinance would permit things to happen, not mandate things to happen. He commented that if
he were in Mr. Mulherin's situation, he would want to participate in discussion of the zoning
law, and participate in the Planning Board's site review of Super Wal-Mart's PUD. He
explained that the Town Board has the authority and the responsibility to make a decision
regarding the Zoning Text Amendment. The Planning Board has the responsibility of
conducting the site review and related processes. In the final analysis, the Town Board must
determine whether any given project is entitled to an Aquifer Protection Permit.
Nick Renzi commented that there have been numerous meetings open to the public
regarding the Zoning Text Amendment. He suggested Mr. Mulherin and Mr. Lissberger attend
the Town Board meetings and the Planning Board meetings to ask questions and stay informed.
Town Clerk, Karen Q. Snyder apprised Mr. Lissberger that he was more than welcome to
contact the Town Clerk's office for updates regarding the proposals or to review any of the
correspondence submitted to the Board.
No further comments or discussion were heard regarding the Zoning Text Amendment.
Supervisor Thorpe offered privilege of the floor to Nick Renzi.
Nick Renzi commented on a letter received and filed at a prior Town Board meeting from
the Mayor of the City of Cortland, regarding the possible sales tax that could be generated from
Super Wal-Mart. He questioned whether the projected sales tax took into consideration the loss
of other businesses in the area. He stated that the projected sales tax may be confusing and
misleading, unless it is understood that the net change could be zero if new business takes away
from the existing businesses.
Supervisor Thorpe stated he was not impressed with the correspondence, and stated the
information was interesting only as an exercise. The Board would not make its decision on
Super Wal-Mart based on the projected sales tax.
Mr. Renzi indicated he brought to the Planning Board's attention that the ordinance on
Planned Unit Development (PUD) is loosely written and is not as clear as it should be. Mr.
Renzi questioned whether it would be legitimate and possible to put a moratorium on PUDs,
exclusive of the current Super Wal-Mart PUD application, and rewrite the ordinance so that its
intent is clear for future applications.
Supervisor Thorpe apprised Mr. Renzi the intent of the PUD ordinance was clear when it
was written in the 1960s. At the time, it was clear to the developers of the ordinance that a PUD
involved a multiplicity of uses on a particular plot of land, rather than something enclosed in one
building.
Mr. Renzi commented that there is a general consensus that the context of the code
allows Super Wal-Mart to apply for a PUD.
Attorney Folmer stated he was not sure whether they could place a moratorium on a law.
He asked Mr. Renzi to take into consideration that it is not too often an application for a PUD is
brought before the Board.
Monthly reports for the Supervisor and Town Clerk for the month of December 2004, and
for the Town Justice for the month of November 2004 are on the table for review and filed in the
Town Clerk's office.

Attorney Folmer reported:
Brokerage Account with Pershing:
Attorney Folmer reminded the Board that they created a Brokerage Account to accept
funds for the Starr Road Park & Recreation Center at the December 28, 2004 Special Town
Board meeting. He presented Town Clerk Snyder with paperwork confirming the opening of the

received, and the sale is in process.
