New Business
• Rush Pond Bikeway—proposal by Councilman John Strough. Councilman Strough reviewed Rush Pond Trail
Concept in greater detail from 8 years ago when he started this project to the current date (with handouts). See file for
documents. Discussion took place with many questions and answers. A motion was then made by Commissioner Fusco
to accept and support the proposal as explained by Councilman Strough, whereas Richard Schermerhorn would develop
over 2,000 feet of trail known as Rush Pond Way as explained in the documents provided. The motion was seconded by
Commissioner Mott and Commissioners began discussion on the motion. Commissioners Hewlett and Switzer felt there
should be amendments to the motion that Commissioner Fusco thought was the purview of the Town Board and that
the board would address these items accordingly before going forward with this project. Since an agreement could not
be reached on the wording of the motion, Commissioner Fusco withdrew his motion. A second motion was then made
by Commissioner Hewlett that the Recreation Commission approve Councilman's Strough's agreement with Mr.
Schermerhorn to accept construction of 2,000 lineal feet of the Rush Pond Trail in lieu of the required recreation fees,
with the understanding that a "memorandum of understanding" is completed to address issues of liability, nature of

proposal.
