PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE LED BY SUPERVISOR BORGOS
PUBLIC HEARING - LAND ACO.UISiTION - QUEENSBURY CONSOLIDATED WATER
DISTRICT
7:35 p.m.
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-The Town of Queensbury Water District is interested in purchasing
2 parcels of property. One is a small sliver of land out next to the current water treatment
plant. I believe it's somewhere around half an acre in size, it's truly a pie shape sliver. The
other parcel, I'll check with our Attorney, it's just about 4 acres of land on West Mountain
Road at the site of a present water storage tank and the purpose in seeking approval to purchase
that is so that we can get into it with some kind of a reasonable road access instead of climbing
the hill. A very steep fashion each time and always digging up the soil and everything runs
across the road and creates problems. That's the purpose of the public hearing. Is there anyone
here to speak about that? It's been advertised, is that correct?
TOWN CLERK DOUGHER-Yes, it has.
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-1 know I've seen it in the paper. Anyone here to speak for or against
that proposal? I didn't think so.
PLINEY TUCKER-How much money is involved?
SUPERVISOR BOR GOS-Not to exceed for the 2 parcels, 27 thousand dollars. It's five thousand
dollars an acre for the land on West Mountain Road which is pretty reasonable to be purchased
from the Lehman family and I think it's a total of 2 thousand dollars for the sliver of land
to be purchased from a church next to the water plant.
MR. TUCKER-That's to put up that new building?
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-That would be to make room so you could ...the building itself wouldn't
be on there. As I understand it the road next to the building that we are required to keep
open for Niagara Mohawk would be right there.
COUNCILMAN MONTESI-We have a 50 foot road way now that leads right on our property
line to the damn. It would be our desire to move that 50 foot road over to the 50 foot sliver
that we're buying and then we'll be able to put our maintenance building on that existing
roadway.
MR. TUCKER-Is the County still interested in part of that?
COUNCILMAN MONTESI-The County is interested in our maintenance building. Is helping
us build our maintenance building for water and sewer treatment plant part of it, and they're
going to lease or purchase some form of on agreement a couple of days from us in helping
us to build that. Right across the road they have their sand pile and they have ...
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-Front end loader and good question, what other piece? I think they
229
us to build that. Right across the road they have their sand pile and they have ...
SUPERVISOR BOROOS-Front end loader and good question, what other piece? I think they
wont 2 days. That will be decided soon. Anyone else wish to speak about the building? Excuse
me, about the land acquisition? Hearing no one else. Board members hove any comments?
No comments, we'll close that hearing.
PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED

OPr V FOR UM
8: D.M.
BARBARA BENNETT, Dixon Rood-Noted the Town's effort for the return of the Girls High
School Basketball State Tournament a success and very much appreciated. Questioned whether
the agreement for them to return to Queensbury is for one year only?
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-Fortunately it is a three year agreement, they'll be back again in
91 and 92. It is a true community effort.
MS. BENNETT-As it keeps growing, I hope Queensbury and Glens Falls will work together
towards bringing the Girls to the Civic Center.
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-Discussions hove been held ... we'll see what happens.
TONY SALVAREZZA, 4 Walton Court-Noted o serious problem with dirt bikes in the Town.
It's a shame what they're doing to the environment, digging up everything and it's unsafe to
even take o walk. I live near the power lines and during the summer time I'm faced with
them constantly. I've contacted the police deportment and NIMO for their help but even
with their efforts, it's been unsuccessful. Would like to recommend police stakeouts on o
regular basis.
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-We've been fighting this problem for a number of years. There's no
easy solution. Questioned whether the Town had any type of regulations for this type of
activity?
M SALVAREZZA-Noted that the Town of Wilton has on ordinance that went into effect
in.- 85 with all kinds of regulations, registration of the vehicles, types of equipment, muffler
system, operation rules. (shown to Supervisor)
ATTORNEY DUSEK-There is on ATV ordinance. Noted that one of the problems is that the
Vehicle and Traffic low also has regulated these and many of the ordinances that Town's hove
on the books, including our Town, hove been superseded by the Vehicle and Traffic Law in
many regards, if not entirely. I would be happy to give you a copy of the vehicle and traffic
low which if it does cover the exact some issues, then it's already on the books as for as
230
enforcement is concerned and there's really nothing further the Town can do.
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-The best we con do is request more enforcement. It's just a very
difficult issue. If you know of any particular pattern, you might call my office.
MR. SAL VAREZZA-i notice weekends all day and end of day during school days.
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-i'll speak with the sheriff and see what we con do.
PLINEY TUCKER, Word 4-Referred to water treatment plant, quotes from the Mayor of
Glens Falls compared to quotes for the Queensbury plant that appeared in the paper.
Questioned the difference in cost?
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-The City had a study done, the study used numbers that were generated
for the City's own construction of a packaged water treatment plant. The numbers used for
comparison purposes were numbers provided for Queensbury by a consulting engineer a few
years ago based on the addition of 5 or perhaps 70 million gallons to our plant. Those were
just proposals, reasonably okay but not too accurate. The numbers have to be refined. As
we're looking now to going to a much larger plant if the City were to join us, those numbers
probably would fall dramatically and it would be o different kind of plant, different from
the package plant. We're getting our numbers together now and we're making a serious pitch
to the City that they should join with us, become port of the expanded Queensbury Water
plant. We hope to know in the next few months the total proposed new size of the new plant,
move ahead with that and be able to tell the City at that time the cost to buy into the plant.
The Town of Moreau and the Town of Kingsbury has been in contact with us. I believe we're
going in the direction of a Regional Water Treatment Plant.
MR. TUCKER-Referred to street lights needed at the end of Pine and Luzerne Road.
COUNCILMAN KUROSAKA-On my list, under the next group of lights to go in.
MR. TUCKER-Recommended that one be put in at the corner of Sherman island and Corinth
roads. Questioned who someone would notify if they noticed a street light on all day?
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-Best to call my office.
COUNCILMAN MONTESI-Made suggestion that if they're found not working, to also notify
the Supervisor's office.
MR. TUCKER-Referred to the Town Board holding on Executive Session and questioned whether
a record of discussion is kept?
ATTORNEY DUSEK-The Board does not take official action when it's behind closed doors.
The Board could take official action behind closed doors but then there would hove to be
o record of it and publication of that record. My advice to the Board has been, not to do
that, but rather meet for discussion of things behind closed doors and then go back to public
session to take official action with the Clerk taking it down.
CLIFFORD HARTMAN, West Mt. Road-Would like to make a request to hove a water line
be put in the area of West Mt. Road north of Aviation Road if it's possible to provide
Queensbury water to the residents of that area.
SUPERVISOR BORGOS-Noted that the study has been recently finished and hope to have
it before the Board for the next meeting to set a public hearing.
ATTORNEY DUSEK-Because you are creating a district, you've got SEQRA and other
procedures, I would recommend at least 30 days before a public hearing is held from the time
you set the public hearing.
SUPERVISOR BOR GOS-So the first meeting in May there should be a public hearing to create
your water district. I've seen the engineering plans, it's all designed, the cost figures look
pretty good which will be available to the public. We'll hold the public hearing and if the
residents of that area wont it, if it's approved, it will be built this summer.
