That will be for Bay Ridge there will also be something for West Glens Falls, but we will get to that one.

This is in general; I am off on the numbers just a little bit. West Glens Falls does about sixteen hundred calls a year. Bay Ridge does about nine hundred calls a year am I pretty accurate on that Connie? Then North Queensbury is about a hundred a year. UNKNOWN-A hundred and seventy. SUPERVISOR MONTESI-Okay. The problem is that it is very difficult to make any money even get staff when you are only doing a hundred and seventy a year. The rescue squads have come up with a really good plan. What the plans are is we will put a BLS, ALS team up in Lake George and North Queensbury for the critical months of May through September, October the summer season. That crew will then move to West Glens Falls and Bay Ridge as a floater crew. It really makes a lot of sense it solves the problem for us in North Queensbury where we just didn't have as much volunteerism as we needed and I think this is going to work out well. The payroll is going to be handled for North Queensbury by West Glens Falls, let me tell you folks that is a pretty big deal to get all three of these guys to agree so thank you. By the way the budget that North Queensbury has presented for the next two years is a flat budget no increase. JOHN SALVADOR-Questioning whether or not the one hundred and seventy runs in North Queensbury includes the runs to the Town of Fort Ann. SUPERVISOR MONTESI-It does. MR. SALVADOR-It includes them. SUPERVISOR MONTESI-About twenty. MR. SALVADOR-About twenty any way we can get the Town of Fort Ann to support these? SUPERVISOR MONTESI-They did they gave us a twenty five hundred dollars check,which I asked for. MR. SALVADOR-It's a start. Thank you. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED RESOLUTION APPROVING YEAR 2013-2014 EMERGENCY AMBULANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN TOWN OF QUEENSBURY AND NORTH QUEENSBURY RESCUE SQUAD, INC. RESOLUTION NO.: 186,2013 INTRODUCED BY: Mr.Anthony Metivier WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION SECONDED BY: Mr.John Strough WHEREAS, in accordance with Town Law §184, the Queensbury Town Board may contract with ambulance services certified or registered in accordance with Public Health Law Article 30 for general emergency ambulance service within the Town,and WHEREAS, the Agreement currently in effect between the Town of Queensbury and the North Queensbury Rescue Squad,Inc.,(Squad)expired on December 31St,2011,and WHEREAS, the Town and the North Queensbury Rescue Squad, Inc., have negotiated terms for a new two(2)year Agreement for general emergency ambulance services,and REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 04-15-2013 MTG#17 10 WHEREAS, in accordance with Town Law §184 and General Municipal Law §209(b), on Monday, April 15'h,2013 the Town Board duly conducted a public hearing and heard all interested persons concerning the proposed Agreement for emergency ambulance services,and WHEREAS,a copy of the proposed Agreement has been presented at this meeting, NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED, that the Queensbury Town Board hereby approves the Year 2013-2014 Emergency Ambulance Services Agreement between the Town and the North Queensbury Rescue Squad, Inc., substantially in the form presented at this meeting,and BE IT FURTHER, RESOLVED,that the Town Board further authorizes and directs the Town Supervisor to execute the Agreement and the Town Supervisor and/or Town Budget Officer to take such other and further action necessary to effectuate the terms of this Resolution. Duly adopted this 15"'day of April,2013,by the following vote: AYES Mr.Metivier,Mr.Clements,Mr. Strough,Mr. Brewer,Mr.Montesi NOES : None ABSENT: None WARREN COUNTY SUPERVISOR WILLIAM MASON WARREN COUNTY SUPERVISOR MASON-Resident of Cleverdale,Warren County Board of Supervisor at Large from the Town of Queensbury. Spoke to the board regarding the No Parking Signs thanked the board for starting the process to take down the signs. The request is to remove them from the entire length of the road but a possible compromise is to make it No Parking on the east side of the road only between the end of the point and the north intersection of Cleverdale Road and Mason Road. If it makes sense we could all listen to comments at the public hearing and then go from there. I have been speaking with the neighborhood for the past year and have yet to find a single resident who thinks that they are a good idea. SUPERVISOR MONTESI-Spoke with the board asking them what their comments were. I don't think anyone has a problem with it we would like to wait until May when the summer residents are there. We will need to have a public hearing I think we should have the fire department there,too. SUPERVISOR AT LARGE,MASON-Spoke to the board regarding the status of the aquatic invasive species fight in Lake George also noted his concern with all of the water throughout the Town has been working with all the Supervisor's from other Town's in Warren County to develop a County wide strategy to pilot it at Lake George then expand the program some of the Town's will be funding their own initiatives that are better than what we are able to do in Lake George this year. The western states are way ahead of us we are playing catch up here in the east. The goal is to enhance the voluntary inspection and boat wash program in 2013 and to encourage the implementation of a mandatory program by 2014. We have a Warren County Transport Law that makes it illegal to transport invasive species in Warren County. The County Board is in the process of amending the law to make it more effective. Asked the board with the possibility of the Town helping to fund the boat wash program again this year. Also requested to arrange a meeting between the Queensbury Town leaders and the leaders from other Towns and Villages, which are engaged in this fight this is a battle that requires a sustain effort every year. Requested that Supervisor Montesi and one of the Councilmen attend a meeting with him and the leaders from the other Town's surrounding Lake George. Asking to expand the program from one wash station to five,which is the number of stations in the proposal from Lake George Park Commission in order to do this we are seeking contributions. The boat wash station that was purchased and manned last year cost a total of thirty five thousand dollars the funding came from four REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 04-15-2013 MTG#17 11 contributors. The Towns of Bolton, Lake George and Queensbury each gave ten thousand dollars the Town of Hague gave five thousand dollars. This year we have a price to purchase twenty three thousand dollars per station. The labor cost to man it is approximately sixteen thousand dollars. The Lake George Park Commission has secured funding for two new stations. The labor to man these two will be paid out of a contribution fund we believe it is fully secured. The Town of Bolton is hoping to buy and man a station in a partnership deal including the station from last year that makes four. Proposal to the Town of Queensbury is we have seven or eight marinas in the Town of Queensbury on Lake George. I am working with those marina owners to come up with a voluntary program that they can enforce so that boats trying to launch can be identified as needing to be washed can be sent to a facility that is close by. If the marinas are willing to enforce it, it becomes a public private partnership that results in a sort of mandatory program. In 2011, the Town of Queensbury donated five thousand dollars to the Asian Clam Eradication Program. In 2012, the same five thousand was donated for that program and an additional ten thousand was donated to help purchase and fund the boat wash program. Thanked the board noting they cannot do the work without the support and cooperation of the Town's that surround the lake. Asked the board for thirteen thousand for the boat wash program this year by using the logic that if Queensbury, Lake George and Lake George Village would split the cost of buying and manning station, it would be thirty nine thousand divided by three or thirteen thousand dollars each. We are not buying boat wash stations for ourselves we are funding a program. SUPERVISOR MONTESI-We can do this we will probably get some of these boats cleaned,unless we make it mandatory it really will not be an effective program for us it doesn't mean that we can't try. We have made contributions in the past we have been supportive give us a little bit of time and we will come up with an answer. 3.0 RESOLUTIONS RESOL UTION A UTHORIZING USE OF OCCUPANCY FUNDS TOWARD TOWN OF QUEENSBURY— CITY OF GLENS FALLS JOINT MEMORIAL DAY PARADE RESOLUTION NO.: 187,2013 INTRODUCED BY: Mr.Ronald Montesi WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION SECONDED BY: Mr.Tim Brewer WHEREAS,by prior Resolution and Agreement the Queensbury Town Board provided in the Town Budget for the Town's receipt of occupancy tax revenues from Warren County in accordance with the Local Tourism Promotion and Convention Development Agreement (Agreement) entered into between the Town and Warren County,and WHEREAS, the Agreement provides that specific expenditure of the funds provided under the agreement are subject to further Resolution of the Queensbury Town Board,and WHEREAS,by Resolution No.: 56,2011,the Town Board authorized the expenditure of funds in the amount of$2,200 for the Excelsior Cornet Band's appearance and participation in the 2013 City of Glens Falls—Town of Queensbury Joint Memorial Day Parade, such funds to be from Warren County occupancy tax revenues received by the Town,and WHEREAS, two additional events will be recognized at this year's City of Glens Falls —Town of Queensbury Joint Memorial Day Parade (Parade) - the Warren County Bicentennial and the Civil War Sesquicentennial,thus the Parade will attract a significant number of people to the Town of Queensbury,City of Glens Falls and the general community, thereby serving as an economic development tool for tourism in Queensbury and the surrounding area,and REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 04-15-2013 MTG#17 12 WHEREAS, the Town Board wishes to therefore authorize provision of$4,300 in funds to be used toward additional expenses relating to the Parade,and NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED, that the Queensbury Town Board hereby approves and authorizes the expenditure of funds in the amount of$4,300 for costs relating to the City of Glens Falls — Town of Queensbury Joint Memorial Day Parade, such funds to be from Warren County occupancy tax revenues received by the Town and to be paid for from Account No.: 050-64104412, contingent upon the Town Budget Officer confirming that the Town has unallocated occupancy tax funds available from Warren County,and BE IT FURTHER, RESOLVED, that the Town Board authorizes and directs the Town Budget to amend the Town Budget and/or take any actions needed to provide for such payment, and BE IT FURTHER, RESOLVED,that the Town Board further authorizes and directs the Town Supervisor,and/or Town Budget Officer to take such other and further action as may be necessary to effectuate the terms of this Resolution.
