B Caldwell asked J Lalley to review the SEQR form with the Board and fill it out.
After some discussion, it was decided that the property should be described as a 5 -lot subdivision. The
first lot being sold didn't trigger a subdivision. It's best to include all the lots in the subdivision decision.
The SLQR form was modified to show this as a 5 -lot subdivision.
The SL- "QR form was filled out by J Lalley. (153 acres)
T Hatfield made a motion to approve a negative declaration. J Laquatra seconded the motion. All
members voted in favor.

0 Conditions:
1. Access to lot two (2) should be on Ed Hill Road.
2. The applicant needs to obtain any further required government approvals such as health
department approval.
This will be scheduled for final approval at next month's Planning Board meeting.
B Caldwell — MaryAnn Sumner, Dan Kwasnowski and Barbara Caldwell met with Lawrence Bice from
Behan Planning Associates to discuss a preliminary timeline for the zoning rewrite work.
Discussion ensued regarding various topics that will be covered over the next year and some
background.
FYI — Lawrence Bice was a grad student and worked on a study / project with Ralph Pendell, so he has a
lot of familiarity with our Town.
The Special Committee has been asked to review the final drafts for the Illicit Discharge and Stormwater
Prevention Plan ordinances. Did everyone get them?
How is our Stormwater plan different from the stage's plan? Dan Kwasnowski will make sure the
information is on the website so that the Planning Board can see the document that was prepared by the
Special Committee showing: "What is it we were trying to do' ? ", "Does the proposed language do it ? ",
" Miat is the impact on the Applicant ? ", "What is the impact on the Town ? ". They did this for each of
the items. Public comments were also incorporated. In J Lalley's opinion, the finished product is a
reasonable balance of more and less restriction (from the state's plan) taking the Town of Dryden's
uniqueness into account.
"this is the Planning Board's chance to give feedback to Dan and Debbie. This needs to be to them
within the week if the Planning Board has comments they wish to have considered before this goes to
the Town Board.
Will this impact the Town Budge in terms of personnel? It may, depending upon construction.
Discussion of duties for Zoning Department involved as a result of the new regulations, and impacts on
Subdivision regulations that the Planning Board overseas.
,Joe Lalley made a motion to adjourn the meeting. Joe Laquatra seconded the motion. All members

August What 7:00 pm.
