The Town Board presented a proclamation announcing the week of May 19-25, 2013, National Public Works Week in Orangetown.

 

The Summer Youth Employment Work Program awards went to Summit School students Edward Antonellis, Jesus Chavez, Richard Davis, Darin Emery, Brian Fisher, Malaysia Gardiner, Isaiah Lemelbaum, Christopher Melville, Samuel Ourlicht, Brandon Price, Donovan Ramses, Phillip Simon and Luis Viera for their hard volunteer work, in making the quality of life better in Orangetown.

Nick DeSantis and Domenick Consolo of O’Connor Davies LLP (Auditors) said the Town received the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting again.  They explained that the Town’s overall financial condition is currently in fair condition.  The fund balances for General Fund, Town Outside Villages, the Sewer Fund, the Highway Fund, and the Debt Service Fund were all in excellent condition as of December 31, 2012.  The golf courses continue to lose money but the Town has sufficient resources to handle their deficits.

 

Summary of Public Comments:

Mike Mandel, Pearl River, is against United Water’s desalination plant.  The Town Board needs to pass a resolution requesting an issue conference.

Habib Hasan, Pearl River, is very offended that Kathy Boudin is a Professor at Columbia University.

Margaret Morrone, Tappan, spoke about the negative health effects of the use of recycle glass as back-fill in trenches.  She requested that recycled glass back-fill not be used on Lexington Road.

Jackie Shatz, Tappan, requested a resolution for an issue conference regarding the desalination plant.

Ben Roujansky, Orangeburg, invited everyone to the Walk Way of Hero’s Memorial Day ceremony, Sunday, May 26th, at 10 a.m.  He questioned the Town requiring a Hold Harmless Agreement from the Orangeburg Library.

Eileen Larkin, Palisades, asked what are the costs associated with Cortwood Village.  She believes Ramapo is the cause for a desalination plant and an issue conference is needed.

Lise Chanin, Pearl River, is very distressed about the lack of consideration and the difficulty in getting building inspections, when she was rebuilding her home, after Superstorm Sandy.  This was a stressful time for her family.

John Cantone, Pearl River, can not accept the lack of concern and disrespect the Building Dept. gave to Mrs. Chanin.

Tom O’Reilly, Pearl River, said the desalination plant costs will be a negative effect on Orangetown’s financials.  He supports a resolution for an issue conference.

Robert Tompkins, Pearl River and member of the Orangetown Housing Authority (OHA), spoke about many non-compliance issues with the OHA by-laws that are compromised under Mr. Whalen’s leadership.  He will be filing a complaint with the NY Division of Housing and Community Renewal.

Alexis Starke, Piermont, said there has not been enough transparency with regards to the desalination plant.  She urged the Board to pass a resolution requesting an issue conference.

Carol LaValle, Tappan, also requested the Board for a resolution regarding the desalination plant.

Ann Putko, Piermont, supports a resolution for an issue conference regarding the desalination plant.  She spoke about alternatives to use less water.

Larry Vail, Tappan, encouraged the Board for a resolution about the desalination plant and would like our leaders to let Albany know Orangetown does not agree with desalination.

Laurie Seeman, Sparkill Creek Watershed Alliance, said this is an opportunity to get the DEC and the health department involved with the desalination plant project.  She requested the Board to pass a resolution for an issue conference.

Peggy Kurtz, Orangetown Environmental Committee, explained that the desalination DEIS authors do not use consistent methods and lack transparency.  She is in favor of an issue conference.
