Snyder reminded the Board that at their December 21, 2005 Town Board Meeting, they adopted a resolution to "Approve Applications for the Blodgett Mills Target Area Rehabilitation." Town Clerk Snyder received a phone call from Thoma Development Consultants indicating that the resolution should be amended. What Thoma Development actually sent to the Town was a monthly report showing the Board the status of the Blodgett Mills grant. The four people listed in the report have not been approved for funding, nor has the money for each applicant been approved. Thoma Development would notify the Board when it is time to approve the applicant and the funds. RESOLUTION #16 RESCIND RESOLUTION ADOPTED AT DECEMBER 21, 2005 TOWN BOARD MEETING "APPROVE APPLICATIONS FOR THE BLODGETT MILLS TARGET AREA REHABILITATION" Motion by Councilman Proud Seconded by Councilman O'Donnell VOTES: ALL AYE ADOPTED BE IT RESOLVED, the Town Board does hereby rescind the Resolution erroneously adopted at the December 21, 2005 Town Board Meeting, "Approve Applications for the Blodgett Mills Target Area Rehabilitation." Councilman Rocco noted that the newly elected County Legislator, John Daniels was in attendance. He congratulated Mr. Daniels and wished him well. Attorney Folmer reported: Property Acquisition: Attorney Folmer reminded the Board that in the past they discussed acquiring a piece of property from Barlyn Realty, LLC. for a retention basin between Fairview Drive and Luker Road. Attorney Folmer was waiting for the papers to be executed and delivered to him. He requested the Board adopt a resolution authorizing the acceptance of the conveyance when he and Highway Sup't. Bush find the papers in order. He also requested the expenditure of $8,100.00 to purchase the property. JANUARY 04, 2006 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 6 RESOLUTION #17 ACCEPT CONVEYANCE OF DEED FROM BARLYN REALTY, LLC FOR PROPERTY LOCATED OFF FAIRVIEW DRIVE Motion by Councilman O'Donnell Seconded by Councilman Rocco VOTES: ALL AYE ADOPTED BE IT RESOLVED, the Town Board does hereby accept the conveyance of a deed from Barlyn Realty, LLC. for property located off of Fairview Drive, tax map #95.00-05-05.120, and it is further RESOLVED, the Board hereby accepts the deed subject to Town Attorney and Town Highway Sup't. approval, and it is further RESOLVED, the acquisition of said 6.78-acre parcel is hereby authorized for $8,100.00. Article 78 Proceeding — CAPE et. al. vs. Town of Cortlandville et. al.: Attorney Folmer reported that he had not heard anything from Judge O'Brien's office regarding the Article 78 Proceeding involving the Town's Zoning Ordinance. Reporter for News 10 Now: Attorney Folmer reported that Sarah Barnowski, Reporter with New 10 Now, was transferred to the Syracuse area for news coverage. The Town would therefore have a new reporter covering local news. FOIL Request for the Wal-Mart DEIS: Attorney Folmer reported to the Board that CAPE submitted a request under FOIL for a copy of the Wal-Mart DEIS. There is a discrepancy between the SEQR regulation and the FOIL statute. According to SEQR, the DEIS would not be available for public comment until it is deemed complete, however the FOIL statute does not follow the same guidelines. Since the document has been delivered to the Raymond G. Thorpe Municipal Building, and even though it has not been received and filed, CAPE is entitled to a copy of the DEIS. Attorney Folmer delivered a copy of the Wal-Mart DEIS to Dr. Robert Rhodes at the meeting. He noted that although CAPE now has the DEIS, the comment period does not begin until the DEIS is deemed complete. If the DEIS is deemed incomplete it would be returned to the applicant who would then have thirty days to make revisions. Attorney Folmer apprised the Board that he and Town Clerk Snyder both spoke with Bob Freeman, who oversees the Open Meetings Law and requirements. Mr. Freeman explained the FOIL statute and the exceptions for inter and intra-agency communications, which do not have to be released unless and until some determination has been made. Because the DEIS came from Wal-Mart, and was not an intra-agency communication, the exception does not apply. Attorney Folmer explained there is nothing in the SEQR regulation stating that the DEIS is not public at the time it is delivered. However, SEQR provides that the period for public comment does not begin until a completion notice has been published. If the public asked to comment on the DEIS prior to the notice of completion, the Board would request the public come back during the public comment period in order to adhere to the regulations. Attorney Folmer apprised the Board that at their discretion they may extend the public comment period more than thirty days. 07 JANUARY 04, 2006 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 7 RESOLUTION 418 AUTHORIZE TRANSFER OF MONIES TO BALANCE ACCOUNTS FOR THE 2005 BUDGET Motion by Councilman O'Donnell Seconded by Councilman Testa VOTES: ALL AYE ADOPTED BE IT RESOLVED, the Budget Officer is hereby authorized and directed to transfer monies to adjust the accounts of the 2005 Budget for the Town of Cortlandville as follows: 1) GENERAL FUND A - TOWN WIDE: Transfer $24,259.96 FROM TO AMOUNT A1110.2 A1110.4 $ 3,333.88 A1440.4 A1440.2 $ 271.00 A1460.2 A1460.4 $ 219.99 A1990.4 A1220.1 $ 0.02 A1990.4 A1220.4 $ 578.59 A1990.4 A1410.4 $ 718.16 A1990.4 A1430.4 $ 480.16 A1990.4 A1430.41 $ 348.69 A1990.4 A1460.1 $ 1,213.40 A1990.4 A5132.4 $16,589.28 A1990.4 A7510.4 $ 60.44 A1990.4 A9950.9 $ 446.35 $24,259.96 2) GENERAL FUND B - PART TOWN: Transfer $116,033.03 FROM TO AMOUNT B 1990.4 B 1910.4 $ 14.00 B7110.24 B7110.24R $ 94,408.36 B7110.12 B7110.24R $ 9,191.04 B7110.22 B7110.44 $ 12,419.49 B 1990.4 B9040.8 $ 0.14 $116,033.03 3) DB - HIGHWAY FUND PART TOWN: Transfer $19,576.04 FROM TO AMOUNT DB5130.1 D135130.4 $ 13,912.76 DB5130.2 DB5130.4 $ 5,663.28 $ 19,576.04 4) SS - SEWER FUND: Transfer $14,749.90 FROM TO AMOUNT SS1990.4 SS9060.8 $ 5,000.00 SS8110.4 SS9060.8 $ 280.76 SS8110.4 SS9710.7 $ 9.469.14 $ 14,749.80 5) SW - WATER FUND: Transfer $5,514.40 FROM TO AMOUNT SW1990.4 SW9060.8 $ 5,000.00 SW8310.4 SW9060.8 $ 514.40 $ 5,514.40 E JANUARY 04, 2006 TOWN BOARD MEETING PAGE 8 RESOLUTION #19 ADOPT NEW PAY SCHEDULES OF 2006 Motion by Councilman Rocco Seconded by Councilman O'Donnell VOTES: ALL AYE ADOPTED BE IT RESOLVED, the Town Board does hereby adopt the following new pay schedules for 2006 for Town Clerical Employees, Highway Department, Water & Sewer Department, and Miscellaneous Employees, as follows: TOWN OF CORTLANDVILLE 2006 PAYROLL SCHEDULE DEPUTY DEPUTY DEPUTY BOOK- SUPERVISOR'S CLERK CLERK CLERK CLERK KEEPER SECRETARY #1 #2 #3 HIRE $29,079 $27,503 $23,770 $29,178 $23,770 $22,535 WAGE STEP A $30,535 $28,960 $25,226 $30,634 $25,226 $23,991 (+1456) STEP B $31,809 $30,234 $26,500 $31,908 $26,500 $25,265 (+1274) STEP C $32,901 $31,326 $27,592 $33,000 $27,592 $26,357 (+1092) STEP D $33,811 $32,236 $28,502 $33,910 $28,502 $27,267 (+910) STEP E $34,539 $32,964 $29,230 $34,638 $29,230 $27,995 (+728) STEP F $35,085 $33,510 $29,776 $35,184 $29,776 $28,541 (+546) * * * * The salaries above are base salaries.
