The Town Board honored EMS workers and volunteers for the Annual EMS Recognition Awards.  The Town Board expressed their sincere appreciation to all of our first responders for their dedication and service they provide to the residents of the Town of Orangetown.  The South Orangetown Ambulance Corps (SOAC) was recognized as the EMS Agency of the year and Karen Zimmerman was recognized Youth Member of the Year.  SOAC has served its residents for the past five decades and has responded to over 1900 calls just in the last year.  They initiated CARELINK, a community outreach program providing public awareness and education, and provide annual CPR training to the local high school.

 

Les Storch, Bennet Kielsen Storch DeSantis, gave a review of Town’s 2005 financial state.  Mr. Storch said the Town is still fantastic when it comes to financial reporting and in outstanding financial condition.  Even though interest rates are rising the Town is smart by locking in lower interest rates.  The Town can report positive fund balances in all funds except the golf courses.

 

Ron Delo, Director, Dept. Environmental Mgt. & Eng., gave an updated comprehensive report regarding Stormwater Discharges (copies of the MCC and SWMPAR forms and permits are filed in the Town Clerk’s Office).

Councilwoman Manning offered the following resolution, which was seconded by Councilman Troy and was unanimously adopted:

 

RESOLVED, that the public hearing regarding the Cherry Brook Drainage Improvement Project is hereby continued.  The purpose of this hearing is to outline the project’s purpose, proposed location and alternate locations, if any, and to present other pertinent information, including maps and property descriptions of the properties to be acquired and adjacent parcels.  This project involves, insofar as concerns the Eminent Domain Procedure Law, the Town’s proposed acquisition of certain property interests including temporary and permanent easements, in certain private properties within the Town, so that the Town can insert and/or repair and/or enlarge underground pipes and other apparatus that will improve the flow and removal of water in order to alleviate flooding and poor drainage.

 

Ayes:               Councilpersons Manning, Troy, Morr

Supervisor Kleiner

Noes:               None

Absent:            Councilman O’Donnell

 

Supervisor Kleiner explained the purpose of this public hearing is to give the Town Board Eminent Domain authority but only if it is needed.

 

William Reddy, Deputy Town Attorney, recommended to the Town Board to delay their decision so that they can deliberate over the additional information and comments.  He also summarized the legal procedure for the Town to obtain these easements.

 

Ron Delo, Director, Dept. Environmental Mgt. & Eng., said he is continuing to meet with every property owner, walking them through the process, explaining how the Town will restore their property and which changes may take place.  At this time additional engineering work, surveys and appraisals need to be completed to know exactly which properties the Town will require easements.

 

Public Comment

Doris Pearson, Pearl River, said she didn’t know her property was one of the properties until she read it in the newspaper.  She is planning on building a garage and wants to know if this would prevent any building?  She asked the Town Board not to vote on this project until everyone can absorb all the information.

Carol Dornbush, Pearl River, is very grateful for the meeting with Mr. Ron Delo but requests better communication.  She also was surprised to see her property in the newspaper.  She asked the Town Board to approve the least destructive process and not to vote until everyone can absorb and understand the whole process.

Kathleen McGourty, Pearl River, said work has been done on her property and would appreciate better communication.  She needs to know what’s been done and what will be done to her property in the future.

Dean Hanson, Pearl River, was blind-sided by the registered letter and at the last public hearing was told his property would not be affected.  The maps have changed and his property will now be effected.  He doesn’t like the way this project is being handled and disagrees with the gravity flow to the Wyeth retention basin.  Would like to know if the Town is sure this will work?

Judith Allen, Pearl River, is concerned why notice was not received and how is the Town going to replace her 40 yr old privacy shrubs.

Andrew Wiley, Pearl River, asked what action is being taken tonight, if there is a time limit and the extent of this project?

Bill Casey, Pearl River, is concerned regarding the carrying capacity of the creek from Gilbert Ave to Elizabeth St.  He requested the engineers to check what the carrying capacity will be after all the work is done to make sure the creek in this area doesn’t overflow.

Phil Zannetti, Pearl River, showed pictures and is concerned with any flooding that may occur due to all the changes.

Kevin Emsworth, Pearl River, said his home has been affected by flooding for the past nine years.  On 11/28/05 work started on the Wyeth property retention basin, and to this date has prevented floodwaters.  The Town Board should be sure that this project goes forward to protect others.

Rose Baldus, Tappan, said her house has been flooded twice during the three years she has lived here.  She wants the Town Board to address all flooding in the Town.

Public Portion

Michael Mandel, Pearl River, is concerned that sewers will not be able to handle new developments and asked will there be another bond to expand sewer capacities in the future?

Bob White, Tappan, said for 35 years he has smelled sewerage.  He asked if the bond and all the costs would stop the smell?  He believes we should have assessment charges to all people who use the sewer system.

Andrew Wiley, Pearl River, asked if Hunt Rd will affect the reservoir and asked for answers regarding bottlenecks and overflows?

Rose Baldus, Tappan, said she lives behind the recycling plant and the smell is terrible.  She has spoken to the County and was told to alert the Town of this poor air quality.

Public Comment

Andrew Wiley, Pearl River, is against not having absentee ballots and wants the vote to be held in November for all voters.

Ellen McCarty, Tappan, has been waiting over two years for the plantings and retaining wall, on her property, to be completed.

Bob White, Tappan, questioned budget increases and asked who in Town Hall solicits for Federal aid?  He stated that dredging the Sparkill Creek on a yearly basis would solve many of the problems of the Creek.

Michael Mandel, Pearl River, The Our Town Newspaper’s ads that ran backing the fields was not correct and some of the backers have, he believes, a conflict of interest.  He also has questions about the OMM website.
