Mr. aRobillard asked that the -reading of the reports be waived and they
be placed on file in the office of the Town Clerk.
The Town Clerk's -report for June was placed on file..
The Building and °loaning report 'far :June .was placed- on file.
The .Dog Wardens report for June was placed on f ile.
Open Forum:
Mr. Nelson Pratt. and some _residents Hof Luzerne Road asked the Board if
anything had been done on the water situation on Luzerne Road.
Mr. Brandt replied-by-' saying that they.hav+e just about completed a study
on the water problem-.in the .Seward Ave, area.' We have taken a preliminary
look at another water problem 'in the Aviation Road area, Luzerne Road
area. We have done- some transit work .and now we have got to do a lot of
field work, study it and find out what can be done.
We would like to design a pipe to bring the wat-er from the open
oluthway to Clendon Brook. It .appears to be a surface runoff problem
that -is in combination with> a, higher ground water table from a lot
getter season. We have looked at Clendon Brook to see if it is
contributing to it, we do not believe that is is. We looked very hard
at the Beaver Dan ,-and ve do not think that is a factor. In my opinion .
it is coaxing .from -the "increased housing in the :area which is giving us
a faster runoff, less area to let the water back into -the ground.
I think it is going to be more of a problem in the West Glens Falls area
as that area builds up.. We have & ,crew working- on the area and it is
going to take months of work.
Mr. Zimmermann asked Mr. Brandt if he had to o u , a hill g p 1 to get to the �
beaver dam.
Mr.. Brandt said that he would .not 'say if he had,to gQ-up a hill but that
you do rise.
Mr. Zimmermann stated that it was perfectly flat. The beavers are the cause
of the high water table. T-hey have got to go one way or another and he
did not care which way they were to go.
Mr. Brandt stated that it was looked at on contour maps and that it was not
a contributing factor.
Mr. Zimmermann stated that._go ng up and do*n the road with surveyors is not
going back in to see the problem in the swamp.
Mr. Brandt stated we are trying our best to come up with a solution. We have
not done enough field work to come up with a solution as yet.;
Mr. Zimmermann stated that he now is using five sump pumps and may have to
purchase a `sixth one.°die is getting sick of pumping water.
Russell Harris representing the Mohican Grano -asked if :the Board is planning
to hire a superintendent for the landfill -and ..if �_The Town is !going to
take the landfill operation away from the Highway Dept. and save the 1
taxpayers money.
Mr. Brandt-We have had a meeting with ENCION two weeks ago,. Let me say
this first. We are proceeding to try and put together a joint committee
or comtission -with -the city_and hopefully -with they county and that is our'
first line of endeavor. ,.To,:pursue that we wanted�to: become knowledgable
as to what monies were available from the State or Federal Government. We
found there was nothing available from the Federal_ governmant-. and there
is nothing immediately .available from the 'State. Wer found,that with a
project of doing a landfill, the state was trying to discourage that
approach and. its funding Was designed toward resource reclamation but
same nonies�fiwere available on a 25% formula to help on 1andfil,ls.::A,t,
that meeting the State criticized our. landfills bit like you =people
did and we know we got it coming. It was not properly run, they also
told us when the city- and town- com b ne, in their eyes it would be a whole
new landfill and a new application would have to be made out and a new
application is an expensive thing to handle. Since then I have had a
meeting with one of their :edgineers at the landfill recently, we looked
at the operation and we looked at what they had in mind for changing it,
at least in their judgement, what needed to be done, and it all cost
money. They want to see us lay down the garbage in layers approximately
100 feet wide, .I do not know how deep:and-compacted with some kind of
machine and then covered. This is to be done on a daily basis, - which
is going to take some pretty good management which is really what you
people have asked us .to do. There is a county :meeting. Fridag in which
we hope to move .further along with this-. I sat-down over .the weekend
and tried to list all .the costa of what it is going to take to .do it.
In the end,we have got dollars we are going to allocate to this and we
do not have dollars budgeted for it. It means, where is our budget,what
surpluses can we anticipate. Legally we have no surpluses at this time,
however there will be some surpluses, we collected a little more:-sales
tax than we anticipated, various places we are going to show slight
surpluses, we are trying to get a handle -on_what:-that should- be -so me .
can make an intelligent decision on how much,,money can be spent, what
kind of a financial arrangemtent can we make to go in and do this correctly.
The State is pretty well telling us that- whatever move we. make, we are
going to :hare-�_to make it ,,-by the standards they were discussin . 4e have
another meeting tomorrow with ENCON, the City and ourselves to see if
we can define the next step, get some more information from them and
move along with it, and next week early .there is an additional meeting where
we are trying to bring in one of "the top people in ENCON to also survey
the sight so .that we can propose- our, game :plan -and get their views from
the top right now in the beginning when we- make the transition.
Mr. Robertson-Russ this -board intends to follow your recommendations,
We do ,have. to Improve the -facilities -and those dollars' have 'to come from
somewhere. We can=not gat. the uney gout of thin air. That `quite frankly
is our =dilemaa. 'We are moving• is the right direction. Your Vecommendations
and ours are very parrallel. This thin' is going- to put" the pressure on
- everbody elses landfill except ours. ` a ll have to provide the services,
we still have to provide the' equipment and manpower and it just ts_�not
going to come out until the end of the year even. We have' to spend dollars
which we have to pay for before we can get the thing going and that is what
Mike is talking about, where Ito we find these dollars that we -spend initially,
we can` get them back, I do. not argue that-point with you but we have got
to have them first, we' have got to know where they are coming from.
Mr. Brandt-We have two landfills obviously within the town. One is run by
the city and one is run by the town. lowever'lboth are ,in the town and they
are- both town problems. I can not. see that ve should put all our efforts
to have a better- operation of just-'our landfill and ignore the other one.
That is probably a more acute problem than our own landfill as far as
being an eyesore., ale far as being a burr under the saddle of the "people of
this town. It has been the committees thrust to try and push for a proper
joint venture to' solve both problems` at once. I can aee that the people
are perturbed at the lack of visible accomplishment, however I will tell
you that it is getting a lot of effort and a lot of push by many of us
within the government.. We. will continue to. work on it and hope to have
an answer very soon.
Mr. Harris-asked about the joint operation in relation to ENCON
Mr. Brandt-There is a problem with the city landfill every time they get
a two inch rain the city can not drive their trucks to the top of their
E landfill. If they can not make the hill they are going to dump beside
the pile. That certainly aggravatescithe people that live there.
Mr. Barber-Three part sixty, now regulations that just came =out -4hicli
will be in effect in September mandate both to private and municipal
state that we will have to submit 'a;very 'extenstve.plan for further
enlargement of -'the` existing lind£i 1,or'if we took in=.the. city..,Either
way -we are going �to -,have to",spend :40,-or 50 thousand dollars an engineering
plans just to get or determine the hydrology, put in more monitoring wells ,
in fact we had a meeting two weeks ago, which Mike indicated,in which
we sat down with-meimbais frbm,ENCON. They,told us about-tht forthcoming
regulations that they felt that we should be in compliance with; and we
were not. We are having another meeting tomorrow, outlying what we feel
is proper both,as we 'operate it at present "and.Af we were to go -jointly
with the City. It does appear at this time that the State will mandate
regardless of what route we take. This means much more extensive
engineering and sU*v+eys.
Mr. Brandt-Russ, what they said is essentially this. The State said if
you are going to put more material in •your 'landfll per day, per °gear
you must submit `a-new game ,per,, a new eangineor#Wt study, a, whole new
analyses to- them. They '1,{skald consi i -the n app=ilk tiori. Just the fact
that the two contunities ate going' -to put th±eirr material t in the ame spot
will effect them. The other thing we are not in a hurry to send two
thousand cairn a defy to our;* andfil T ` There is #io' 9 Ve +can hAidle it.
It would be a very irresponsible answer for everybody concerned. We have
got to find a way of handling this withftt pulft4iug hiss-kind of a traffic
increase in our landfill. The other thing the establishment of charges
and fees at the ithdffl.l,•-eve 1661- 'this- best way =tip bundle -that is with
a set of scales for the commercial haulers where they pay by the ton and
put a charge for vehicles going in. This means a strain on all of the
other landfills because some people are going to say that they are going
to use the other landfills. We are trying to notify our neighboring
communities that this is the direction we are going in so that they are
not shocked to find out that we did •it 'Aftd"'ajll of a sudden' they have a
new stress that they did not expect.
Mr. Barber-One of "the thing- thiM concerned me at the last meeting,
I asked the question regarding impervious soil and the Regional Engineer
representative stated it was not- required.
J�
However, ,the Engineer from. thre .Division in Albany stated that this soil
within -a year ,. nay be :a regpirement, which leads me to .think before we-
spend any tdrmay, ahatsoever in the existing landfill, we have to get a
determination -from the director of Solid Waste in Albany as to whether
we are going to have an impervious soil condition or not. The philosophy
of ENCON three or -four.-Year, ag�hat sand and gravel was an ideal
situation for Landfills;. Today lt-is just .the.'reverse, a clay composition
soil is morei;preferreA. There are many studies- throughout the nation that
sand- and gravel,-is more preferred than clay. So, it may revert back again
to sand and{ gravel Before we get into a situation-whereby -the State
mandates.,of ter we spend a significant. ammou=,A-f.rmmey , and we have to
have a .clay landfill. -we are going to makeethat determination first and
it is going to take, some, time.
Mce Brandt- ThwZtate. in" telling. us there are. .two factions v.thin ENCON.
One says we ought bo have impervious soil, that it tha. bast.4,,_tha tither.. .
says, what -you .now have is the best. What we want-, is some -clear definitions
from them before we spend a lot of money. If in effect we spend a good
lot -of money to start a good landfill there and they come the next day
and say you need to be totally on clay soil and we have to move completely
out of there to some other site, we will. waste=-a lot .of ,money.. ENCON is
attempting to help us get a .straight answer at this -time.
Mr. Eddy complained about the appearance of the landfill, from a beautification
standpoint:
Mr. Olson agreed with Mr. Eddy. He .stated that it was certainly nothing
to be proud of.
Mr.. Brandt explained about Mr. Garb being sick. Mr.. Martindale is trying
to do the job but that it is tough doing the work of two men.
Mr. Martindale complained about people throwing their garbage outside the
gate.
Mr. Brandt stated he would notify the Police Dept to look out for these
offenders.
Jack Hallinan-Tow is paving done in a development?
Mn?eHvkectsBnandt-meted on the question by saying that developers
have tea..bxin g the -road up..-to-,grade level, it: is _then the t6vn'.s
respons ilitys-mfter accepting the road, to .pave it when it is financially
possible.. ;
Mr. !Hallinatn-qwwtioned if there was .any way the developer could be made
to pave roads
Mr: iobdrtsou This has been discussed by the Town planning and 2oning
Boards. .
Mr. Hallinan-I believe that this is illegal, paving for the benefit of
one area and the whold town paying for it.
