Assessor Robert Breglio submitted a written report to the Town Board and stated he has begun checking new building permit work and status of old work in anticipation of the 2018 Tax Roll, he will now have access to the STAR credit check lists, has been making sure all exemption paperwork is in order due to the Comptroller’s office checking on same, and reported things are working out well with the new Building Inspector.
Parks Clerk Carolynn Faraci reported she met with representatives and interns from Lynhurst which is connected with Roxbury’s original Gould/Shepard properties that included a tour of the Jay Gould Church, Kirkside Adult home, Kirkside Park and Shepard Hills Golf Course. They would like to continue the tour annually as well as having the interns rotate working here. They are also planning to take some saplings of certain trees from the golf course to plant at Lynhurst as the ones there are now gone. Faraci also requested some changes to the current pavilion rental agreement as there have been some issues. Attorney Young will look into the matter and supply a draft copy to the Town Board.
Supv. Hynes reported a plugged sewer line has been repaired in Denver Sewer District. Stones and cloth wipes were the problem.
Supv. Hynes reported work has been completed on the office building at the Transfer Station and the gate continues to be worked on. Councilman Cronk expressed concerns with excessive C&D box overage charges and would like to see large contractor loads denied dumping there. The matter was discussed but no action was taken.
Tara Jo Donadio of Cornell Cooperative Extension was given the floor to do a power point presentation of the Clean Energy Program being offered through NYSERDA. The program was discussed as well as funding. No action was taken.
No action was taken on the letter received from the Munsell’s regarding their water usage and charges as we are waiting to hear back from the owners.
A letter was received from Richard Kohlberger who was also present at the meeting, and is the owner of Early Sunrise Farm on Cronk Road. He is requesting the road be abandoned allowing him to use it as a private road because it provides access only to his property and he would like to expand his farming. If abandoned, the Town would not have to maintain the road anymore and it would allow him a more secure property with no traffic coming up the road. Attorney Young will research the matter.
Attorney Young discussed DEP updating their analysis of the impact of their land purchases in the Town of Roxbury where it is the highest in Delaware County. It has been proven there has not been any major building here and the purchases appear to interfere with flood mitigation measures. Therefore, DEP will supposedly not solicit for more land purchases in the Town at this time.
Discussion took place on a letter received from Joel & Susanna Craig requesting reimbursement of plumber fees associated with a sewer line repair required on their sewer line at Roxbury Run Village last fall that was backing up into their unit. It originally appeared the problem was the responsibility of the owner, but upon further inspection it was found to be on the District’s line.
RESOLUTION #91-REIMBURSE CRAIG PLUMBER BILL
On motion of Gene Cronk second by Edward Raeder the following resolution was offered and adopted:
“RESOLVED, the Town Board authorizes a reimbursement to Joel Craig, owner of Roxbury Run Village Unit 8-2, in the amount of $259.20 for plumber fees he incurred for a plugged sewer line that was found to be the responsibility of the Sewer District.”
