Dave Putnam reported that Bat-Con is still waiting for a plastic manhole for the Kline Road Project. It was also discovered that a culvert under Cayuga Heights Road is collapsing so a change order will be issued for this work. It was explained that this will change Cayuga Heights payment, not ours. The State has finally signed the paperwork for N. Triphammer Road Project. NYSEG needs to get started now so that all the utilities can be moved.

 

The next item on the agenda was the approval of the minutes for August 2, 2004.

 

Motion-Approval of Minutes for August 2, 2004

Trustee Frank Moore- Aye                               Trustee Larry Fresinski-Aye    

                        Trustee John O’Neill-Aye

 

During general discussion Ned Hickey gave an update on what has been going on with the Planning Board. There has been a revised traffic count at the Warren Road/Bomax Drive intersection by the people doing the Lansing Trails II development. Fisher Associates has agreed to review this new information. This new analysis may result in an improved level of service (LOS) from F to E. The peak PM hour was analyzed every 15 minutes to see where the failure was coming from. The LOS failure was isolated to only one 15 minute period, and only at the Post Office driveway.

 

The Spitsberg development will be a subdivision of 6-7 dwelling units. They are waiting on NYSDEC to relocate a stream.  Bob Miller has broken ground for the Millcroft subdivision. Steve Cardamone will be starting The Hamlet soon.

 

The Planning Board has been working on updating the Comprehensive Plan. A draft of corrections has been given to Carol. This should be done and approved by the end of the year.

 

Larry asked David where we are with the codification. Randy Marcus has not been available, but David will speak with him again. The question is still what to include in the codification. There are provisions that were originally adopted by local law and others that were adopted only by resolution as permitted. If all of these provisions, including those originally adopted by resolution, are in the codification when it is formally enacted by local law as required, then it is quite likely that any and all subsequent amendments will need to be accomplished by local law. Ned stated that the Code Officer and the Planning Board need the regulations.

 

Ned stated that the culvert that was washed out on the Greenway Trail from Graham Road to Churchill has been repaired. He feels we still need to come in with surface material to finish.
