POLICE DEPARTMENT Town of Queensbury POLICE January 20, 1966 Report on junk yards on the Ridge Road to the Town Board, Town of Queensbury. Gentlemen: In response to your request to investigate certain places on the Ridge Road, I am pleased to report that I talked to Mr. LaBarge, who claimed to be the owner of property on the West Side of Ridge Road, about two (2) miles north of Farm-to-Market Road. Mr. LaBarge told me that his intentions were to get rid of all of the unoperable cars, car bodies, etc. ; now in various places about his yard. Also that he has been waiting for snow so he could burn and use a cutting torch without the danger of starting any fires, and that he intends to start grading in preparation to building a new house in the spring. I talked to Mr. Mulcahy, who lives in a trailer just north of the Cronin Road on the West Side of Ridge Road by the partly burned brick house. I was informed that he was operating an auto body and paint shop, that the cars there were for repair; so in no way could be considered as a junk yard. However, after talking awhile and some calming down, he agreed that it made a messy looking place. He also told me that he intended to tear down the old brick house and put up a new one next summer. At a garage on the East Side of Ridge Road, a little north of the Half Way Brook, I talked to Mike Trapasso, and I witnessed him bunching cars together and burning them. Two day and two -trips later, on Monday, Jan. 17, I contacted Robert Lanfear, owner. Mr. Lanfear informed me that his intentions were to operate a used car lot and not a junk yard. When I pointed out that he was already maintaining a junk yard without a license in violation of a town ordinance, he had to agree. He assured me that he was anxious to comply with any and all laws, and that he would apply for a license and start getting rid of all of his junk cars. 328 (Report of Chief of Police - continued) In all cases I have informed these people that they must clean up the junk around their yards and that id they intend to have a junk yard, they must apply for and obtain a license and comply with its regulations. Respectfully, LeRoy Phillips Chief of Police A letter was received and placed on file from Mack Drug Company, Inc. , to thank the Town Board for the expression of good will on the opening of their new store in the Northway Plaza, _ Town of Queensbury.
