2.0HEARINGS
KNIGHTS OF GLENS FALLS, INC.’S APPLICATION FOR THIRD
VARIANCE/WAIVER REQUEST FROM SANITARY SEWER CONNECTION
REQUIREMENT CONCERNING PROPERTY LOCATED AT 989 STATE
ROUTE 9
SUPERVISOR STEC- Again, we have done these many, many times before. In fact, we
just did one a couple of weeks ago on this very Route 9 sewer district. They are still
included in the district and pay as though they were connected. Typically, this is a
convenience thing for an applicant and the Board has some flexibility on this. We did
ask, Mike Shaw did ask for and was provided to us, and I gave it to the Clerk today for
inclusion of the record, a copy of the invoice showing that the grease trap and septic
system has been recently, within the last week, pumped. Actually, I think that’s a pretty
good idea as we move forward since there’s very few of these left, as we continue to
grant these maybe we want to start including them. I thought it was a nice idea that Mike
Shaw had and that way we can move forward with confidence that the system that’s still
there being used is at least operating. With that said the hearing is open and Mr.
O’Connor is the applicant’s agent, I suppose, and if you want to add anything to what I
just said Mike…
MIKE O’CONNOR- No. Just briefly, I’m Mike O’Connor from the law firm of Little
and O’Connor. I do represent the applicant. We have asked for a waiver for the hookup of
the existing sewer. I would note that probably we’re going to end up with the new
purchaser who will come on board shortly after the first of the year will end up using the
existing septic system for about 5% of what the present use is. Just by an idea of the
number and frequency of people that will be there. We’ve asked for in our application for
five year extension. I understand that that’s not something that you’ve done in the past.
We certainly would like consideration beyond one year. This is going to be a significant
undertaking for the people to come into this and they’ve got a very adequate system.
There’s no harm in any manner or any impact to the Town by them not hooking up to it
as you noted before, they pay as though they are hooked up. If you would consider
beyond some place between your one year and five year we certainly would appreciate it.
SUPERVISOR STEC- In fact Mike, the last one that we considered at our last meeting I
believe it was as well, was for the Graycourt and they had asked, a very similar situation,
because they had been in several times over the last few years, actually they asked for an
REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 11-02-2009 MTG #39 306
indefinite one and the Board was absolutely not inclined to do that but we did grant them
a two year. Typically, you are right, typically we’ve been granting one year, in this case
we did agree to grant them a two year. As I mentioned before, with the invoicing that we
asked you for that you all did provide which we appreciate, that probably gives us more
confidence. Actually, what I’ll do is it’s in the resolution; we’ve got some blanks to fill in
here including how many year extension. I know you’re aware of this but probably
moving forward, and this is probably more for Mike Shaw’s benefit in the back of the
room listening to what we’ve got here, there’s two provisions here and I will read them
really quickly: the applicant demonstrates that the property’s septic system is being
maintained by providing the Town’s wastewater with an annual invoice demonstrating
that septic tanks and grease traps have been pumped and cleaned within the year and also
that grease traps are pumped and cleaned at a minimum once per year. Secondly, if
there’s any increase in septic use or bathroom facilities added then such variance shall
immediately terminate unless the Town Board review and approves the new application.
So, I think with those two things in there it allows to perhaps meet the additional time
suggestion that’s been asked for because I think what’s important in this anyways. I
assume that would be agreeable to you and the applicant, those two conditions?
MR. O’CONNOR- If it’s a condition we can live with it. I think its overkill, DEC tells
you to pump your septic system once every two years.
COUNCILMAN METIVIER- Can I ask a question about that, if their not using the
facility as its being used now and there are no grease traps is that going to be a
requirement still?
SUPERVISOR STEC- Well, I don’t know how you… Washington D.C. would be getting
an invoice for cleaning a grease trap that doesn’t exist. But if there are no grease traps
MR. O’CONNOR- Grease traps will exist. We are not going to have a kitchen operation
that’s going to do banquets or what not. There may be some use in the kitchen for various
small entertaining, if you will, presentation type entertaining for customers that are there
looking at the products that we are selling.
COUNCILMAN BREWER- Is there a particular application in before the Planning
Board or anything?
MR. O’CONNOR- Yes there is.
COUNCILMAN BREWER- Do we know what the use is going to be or would you rather
not say
MR. O’CONNER- I’d rather not get into that at this point, but there is an application
pending for the property with the Planning Board that’s got all the details.
COUNCILMAN BREWER- I don’t have a problem with this particular property but I
guess with this stipulation if you show a bill that it’s been cleaned it just tells us that it’s
been cleaned once. If you come back every two years that assures us that the system is
being maintained. I don’t see any harm in that and I would
MR. O’CONNOR- I don’t have a strong… one year I think is overkill, two years is
reasonable
COUNCILMAN BREWER- Two years is maximum that I would prefer to go
COUNCILMAN STROUGH- I do too
SUPERVISOR STEC- Alright
COUNCILMAN MONTESI- The other thing is that there is a resolved at the end that the
applicant shall pay all charges due as if the property is connected to the sewer line
COUNCILMAN BREWER- Right
REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 11-02-2009 MTG #39 307
SUPERVISOR STEC- That’s always true. Let me make a suggestion for the Board
COUNCILMAN MONTESI- Is that your understanding too Mike
SUPERVISOR STEC- Let me make a suggestion on filling in the blanks here and
making that change here. You guys pay attention and see if you agree. On the second
page in the resolve the first one “would not” be material detrimental, under B it would be
“is” reasonable and “would” alleviate and then in the middle resolve the Town Board
hereby “approves” then “grants”. I think we are talking about in fairness to what we’ve
done for other applicants a “two Year” extension or until “November 2, 2011”, and then
under the provided that there is two underlined paragraphs, the first paragraph the
applicant demonstrates that the property’s septic system is being maintained by providing
wastewater director with “a bi-annual” not to be confused with semi-annual but a bi-
annual which means every two years, which he just did so basically they are good for two
years. I think if we did that, that’s what we just talked about. Do you have anything you
want to add Mr. O’Connor?
MR. O’CONNOR- No
SUPERVISOR STEC- Then does somebody want to move that
COUNCILMAN BREWER- This is good for two years
SUPERVISOR STEC- Two years from today
COUNCILMAN METIVIER- That first page, we don’t have to change that do we
“public sewer within one (1) year from the date of notice”
SUPERVISOR STEC- No we don’t need to change that. Okay, Rose if you want to call
the vote please.

3.0PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR (LIMIT- 4 MINUTES)
TAMMY SULLIVAN- Spoke to the Board regarding the ongoing flooding issues on her
property on Homer Avenue. She presented handouts to Board Members showing the
flooding in her yard after the last two rain storms. The water does not flow through the
culvert it flows above the pavement.
SUPERVISOR STEC- Stated that Councilman Montesi has been speaking with legal
counsel regarding the drainage problem. The stretch under the parking lot between
Minogue's and Tire Warehouse is probably a huge contributor to all this.
MS. SULLIVAN- It has become a danger and needs to be addressed.
SUPERVISOR STEC- Explained that the job has been engineered and ready to go. We
need people to sign easements to let the work get done. Two of the three are willing to
sign but the third stated that he doesn’t have the money. This is a public/private
partnership that we explored over three years ago that the Board was willing to do. We
were going to share because we believe that there was a public benefit, a public purpose
for the Town’s involvement but the culvert itself runs through private property so we said
the Town is willing to contribute a share to fix this problem because it will protect Homer
Avenue. Then of course there are one or two property owners who are concerned how
this going to impact business.
MS. SULLIVAN- Asked the Town to step in.
COUNCILMAN MONTESI- We are in a situation where it is a safety factor.
COUNCILMAN BREWER- Suggested that someone from DEC be contacted. We need
to do what we have to do to stop the problem.
COUNCILMAN MONTESI- We might want to get Nimo involved too because there is a
new gas line along there.
COUNCILMAN BREWER- Whatever we need to do lets do
SUPERVISOR STEC- Alright
PAUL NAYLOR- With regards to Ms. Sullivan’s drainage problem, asked the Board to
speak to the Town Counsel regarding a perpetual easement.
PLINEY TUCKER- Questioned the Board on who the judge is handling the case between
the City and Town over the rezoning. Concerned about a conflict if it is Judge Krogmann
because he used to be a city judge and the president of Crandall Library. Asked if they
are comfortable with Judge Krogmann presiding over the case if it comes to that?
SUPERVISOR STEC- I think it will get resolved long before it does come to that, but if
it does we are not even sure if he is going to be the Judge. If he is I’m comfortable with
it.
COUNCILMAN MONTESI- If he felt he was conflicted he would step away
REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 11-02-2009 MTG #39 311
MR. TUCKER- Questioned Councilman Brewer regarding the paving of a portion of
West Drive.
COUNCILMAN BREWER- That is not a deeded road. It is a road by use. It was a short
distance. It was another part of a road like there are many in the Town of Queensbury that
there is no deed to. The means and bounds don’t match what we have on record as far as
how long the road is matching the pavement and we looked into it. We felt we had the
authority to pave what we did.
MR. TUCKER- Questioned Supervisor Stec regarding tax increases at the county level.
SUPERVISOR STEC- The budget officer is still working on it.
