Tables that were submitted regarding Bay Road Sewer Study are on file in Town Clerks Office. February 18, 2015 REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 02-23-2015 MTG# 7 612 Queensbury Town Board 742 Bay Road Queensbury, NY 12804 Re: Bay Road Moratorium and Sewer Study Dear Board Members: The Post Star is correct that my analysis of the recent MJ Engineering study of Bay Road sewer contained an error. I did not realize that the study's Table 3 titled "Summary of Existing Flows" included sewage that does not flow through the Willowbrook pump station. I have since removed the "Original Bay Road/Glenwood" flow from the spreadsheet and submit the corrected copy here. But the Post Star is wrong in other aspects. The correction does not change the conclusion that there is insufficient capacity or my contention that the projects responsible for the crisis must pay the cost of necessary upgrades. The corrected total of existing and projected flows through Willowbrook still exceeds 80% of capacity, the criteria for requiring upgrades as stated by both MJ Engineering and the Queensbury Director of Wastewater at the December 23, 2014 workshop meeting. Even worse, when you include the legally accepted flows that are not yet used, the total flow reaches 105% of capacity. This is not safe, or responsible planning, or fair to other Bay Road property owners. How can you tell property owners they have lost legally accepted capacity when they need that flow as demographics of their residential units change or they wish to finish developing their property? This is a system wide problem for both gravity lines and pump station capacity. Currently, only 34,560 gpd is flowing into Willowbrook(just 23%of pump station capacity) and another 26,720 gpd is flowing downstream of the pump station. That is why you are not et seeing issues from problematic lines in the southern portion and a possible low spot in the northern portion. The latter can be easily confirmed, or refuted, by putting the town's camera down a manhole to look for standing fluid in the pipe, as retired engineer Doug Auer has repeatedly suggested and Board Member Bill Van Ness stated at the last Town board meeting. Why wait any longer when a warm manhole cover can be easily located by simply plowing surface snow aside? The town paid for additional capacity at Willowbrook a decade ago to provide sewer for all Bay Road properties, and it has legally accepted flows in subsequent Map Plan & Reports on that basis. The current crisis is due to the Planning and Zoning Boards approving projects far in excess of those legally accepted flows. Three projects are largely responsible for the excess. Cottage Hill, Fowler Square and Baybrook Professional Park will require a whopping 61% of the total Willowbrook capacity, and the 52,000 gpd in excess of their legally accepted flow accounts for 35% of Willowbrook capacity! This is stolen from all the other Bay Road properties yet to be developed or which will need sewer connection when their leach fields eventually fail. All Bay Road property owners should continue to pay, upon sewer connection, the same gpd buy-in based on the original Willowbrook design to repay the town for its purchase of additional capacity. But projects awarded excess flows have created the problem and should pay for upgrades to replace that excess before they are allowed to connect. REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING 02-23-2015 MTG# 7 613 1 ask that this letter be read into the minutes as correspondence during the upcoming Town Board meeting. Sincerely, Kathleen Sonnabend 55 Cedar Court Queensbury, NY 12804 518-761-0931 5.0 PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR LIMIT- 4 MINUTES KATHLEEN SONNABEND, CEDAR COURT, QUEENSBURY-Thanked Supervisor Strough for meeting with her today.

Appreciates being put on the coordination email list so that she may be available for the meetings. Requested that the letter she submitted be read into the minutes along with the corrected spread sheet and the annotated pages from the sewer study. Her conclusion remains the same that there is insufficient capacity for the existing projected and the approved pending projects. Recommended that no more sewer connections be made even on the pending projects until you get a handle on this.
