7:00 – Public Hearing: Establishing Extension #1 to the Nichols Street Sanitary Sewer District

Noelle Burley, Town Clerk: Read the Legal Notice.

Supervisor Lenhard: Is there anyone here that would like to talk about this issue or have concerns?

Dan Schum, Town Attorney: We have a young gentleman in the audience who is here on behalf of the engineers. Thank you for coming. Obviously there is not a lot of public interest for or against the petition. The Board has found that the petition is proper. I did speak with the Village of Spencerport Attorney and did confirm with the Village that the present proposal is to service the only structure in the district with a septic system but that the balance of the development of the project would be subject to an agreement with the sewer provider which would be the Village of Spencerport to treat the sewage from that district. Thanks again for coming.

Supervisor Lenhard: If no one else would like to speak I will close the public hearing.

II: Approval of the Minutes:

Resolution #194-7.12.17-

Nays: None

III: Privilege of the Floor:

Mike Zale: I wanted to congratulate you all, this sewer line going to Nichol Street is a big economic development and it is something that needs to be done. I am excited for the future and you all did it without cost to our taxpayers. I also wanted to say that I had a great meeting today with Jenny Rae Brongo with Homesteads for Hope and one of the things that we spoke about has to do with the railroad. It used to be CSX and now the County owns it now and the County does not want her utilizing it. She is trying to make it a parking lot. I am working and have been working with her for months trying to put together a plan that helps her out. I know that she will be coming in front of this board to secure a few things for some of the buildings that she has. Her designs and plans as you know are phenomenal, it is just nice to see them going the right way. There is someone who has donated a lot of money and an individual to help with marketing who I met today as well and she seems like a lovely woman who is going to do a lot of good for them. The only other thing is I wanted to say thank you to everyone who participated in the meeting downtown for the shared service agenda that the Governor has. I just spoke with the County Executive about it yesterday, she said it was a great meeting and that there is another one scheduled. That is pretty much it.

Councilman Feeney: How is the zoo coming along?

Mike Zale: It is a pretty major project. I am excited for it to be underway. The Africa Exhibit that they have they used the stamped patio which if anyone has a child in stroller they know that it shakes the baby pretty bad so I am hoping they don’t do that this time but they are doing a good job getting that going. It is going to be a multi-year project but it looks like it is going to be nice.

Supervisor Lenhard: The airport is a multi-year project as well right?

Mike Zale: It is and they have started to break ground on a couple different portions and they will continue to do that. There is a lot to it and what they are trying to do is do it in a way that doesn’t close down any portions of the airport. It may take longer but we don’t want to inconvenience people. They are also working on the cell phone lot. Everything is going to be color coded so it is easier for people to see where they need to go. The work they are doing will also make for more direct flights out of Rochester which will bring more traffic to us instead of Buffalo.

Supervisor Lenhard: Cheryl did a very good job of presenting this to us at our Chamber function. I am in charge of getting something for October and I was talking to her about it and she invited me to the airport which I thought was very nice.

Mike Zale: She speaks very highly of you so that is excellent. Thank you!

VII. Reports from Town Officers:

Gay H. Lenhard, Supervisor

1. I participated in the Corporate Challenge yesterday. There were 11 of us, it was supposed to rain but it didn’t. It was really hot and I am very proud of Tony Mattia for organizing this since spring. We found out it was no longer going to be held at RIT but at the Red Wings Stadium instead. Andrea and Marcia picked out shirts for us to wear that say we are from the Town of Ogden, we really had a very good time.

2. Paula and I are working on the possibilities on what we can do to satisfy the government as far as saving money. I went to a meeting 2-3 weeks ago with the County Executive and we agreed to present what we could do. The things that we came up with are not legitimate in the government’s eyes. We are still brainstorming some ways to make them happy.

Thomas J. Cole, Councilman-

No report.

David F. Feeney, Councilman-

No report.

Malcolm E. Perry, Councilman-

No report.

Thomas J. Uschold, Councilman-

No report.

David H. Widger, Highway Superintendent-

1. I just want to tell you we have been busy on the road work. As you can see the amount of money we have been spending on asphalt but Whittier Road, south of Buffalo Road and Westside Drive will be closed as of Monday for a month. There is a lot of construction going on down there and we are working on various spots of Canal Road, Ogden Center Road, Manitou Road, we have several projects going on.

2. We are going to start work on the new Salt Bunker next week. We are looking to have it up in three weeks.

Noelle M. Burley, Town Clerk-

No report.

Daniel G. Schum, Town Attorney-

1. Finished up a Storm Water Control Facility Maintenance agreement with Advantech and that was approved and reviewed by Keith O’Toole then signed and sent back to the developers Attorney for recording.

2. We have the Nichols Street Sewer District tonight for approval.

3. I am looking at an intermunicpal agreement for Ambulance Services and Noelle was nice enough to go back and look up the previous agreement. The issue that I am looking to address is the proposal came from the Gates Volunteer Ambulance Service and they now have taken over Spencerport and the agreement proposes to furnish services to part of Parma, part of Ogden, the Village of Spencerport and the issue we are having are that the provisions of the town law provide that if you enter into an agreement for that service it must cover all of the town. The entire town is not within their jurisdiction. We have some parts of it that are covered by the southwest, in any event I pulled the old file and we are going to try to get it in shape to do something next month if possible.
