-Letter October 2, 1973
Queensbury Town Board, Mr. John Austin, Supervisor.
Gentlemen:
I am pleased to report that this department has completed --
work on the Dixon Road water main extension.
This project consisted of the installation of 24001 feet
of 12 inch ductile iron pipe and appurtenances between Prospect '
Drive and Aviation Road and 1521 feet of 6 inch cast iron pipe
to tie in Midnight Drive and Poplar Drive.
The estimated cost of construction of this project was $30,000. 00.
The actual cost incurred by this department, including material, equip-
ment and labor plus 25% amounted to $23 ,298.00.
There were 16 working days involved. During days of pipe installa-
tion the average footage was 300 feet per day.
The cost of 12 inch ductile pipe per foot installed was $7. 92 and
the cost of 6 inch cast iron pipe installed per foot was $11.32. The
higher cost of the 6 inch pipe was due to the. additional time and work
involved in the raod crossings and fittings for the tie ins to the
existing mains on Midnight and Poplar Drives.
The crew completing this work consisted of Robert Lilly, Claude
White, David Coon and George (Bud) Carpenter under the direction of
Mr. Lilly. The cooperation and enthusiaum of these men contributed
largely to the supess of this project.
Respectfully,
/s/

ATT: John Austin, Supervisor
RE: Lake George-Queensbury
Gentlemen:
We have reviewed your recent resolution regarding sewerage and are,
in agreement with same.
We recognize that municipal sewerage treatment is desirable if not
a necessity for the area of our town on Lake George and all resonable effort
should be made to provide this service.
Routing the lines through our town along Route 9 and Quaker Road
would provide a benefit base which should prove economical to the entire
project.
Any effort to keep the number of sewage treatment plants to a
minimum will cut down on duplication of staffing and maintenance costs
within the State.
We therefore encourge the Town Board's efforts in this project
and will assist any way we can.
Very truly yours ,

As per Ord. #31 Town of Queensbury, I have on severalloccasions inspected
property on Ridge Road Section 109 , Block 3 , Lot 1, Jomar Inc. of E 326
State Highway Rt. 4, Paramus , N. J. 07652. 1 have found that both buildings,
{
a vacant house and a large barn in the rear, are unsafe and S L
in my opinion should be demolished.
A routine violation notice was sent to owner on June 11, 1973. There was
no answer. A follow up letter was sent August 15, 1973. This also was ign
nored.
Therefore, I request the Board take the necessary action to expedite this
matter.
