Glens Falls, New ,York
Dear Madam:
260
- This will acknowledge receipt of your July 27th Resolution NO.
86 urging the State of New York ttto face up to their responsibility
in taking immediate and decisive action necessary to make this high.
way safe." The resolution referred to the new East-West County
Highway Bypass at Glens Falls known as Quaker Road.
We heartily agree with you that the State of New York should face
up to its responsibility and we believe that we have. However, it has
taken a little time to determine the proper traffic control necessary
on this new East-West Bypass.
When a facility of this kind is completed, we install stop signs
and cross road signs where the facility intersects with State routes.
Proper observance of these signs makes for complete safety.
Our next step is to study traffic at these intersections with our
State Highways to determine if the side or cross road traffic is
heavy enough to warrant the installation of a traffic signal to avoid
delay. This study takes a little time and cannot-be started until
the facility is open to traffic and functioning. -
Our studies are about completed and show that a fully actuated
traffic signal is warranted at the Bypass and Route 9 and also at
Route 32. A semi-actuated traffic signal is warranted at Route 9L.
No signal is warranted at the east end of the Bypass where it dead-
ends on Route 32B. The signal light poles have been delivered and
the work of installing the signals was started today. This work,
of course, covers the Bypass at its intersections with State Highways
only, which is the extent of our jurisdiction.
Very truly yours,
J. BURCH McMORRAN(sigAed)

Dear Mrs, Turner:
Your letter of July 29th with Town Board Resolution No. 86 en.
closed is hereby acknowledged.
I took this matter of traffic control on the new East-West Bypass
(Quaker Road) up with the State Traffic Commission in Albany yesterday,
and was informed that they intend to erect traffic signals on this road
at its intersections with Route 99 Ridge Road and the Boulevard; also
that they are continuing their study of traffic on the Quaker Road.
The Commission_ requested the County to take a peak hour count of
traffic at county road intersections with this road, particularly at
Bay Road and Dix Avenue, and forward the information to them to be
included in their overall study of the situation. This will be done
in a few days and may effect a considerable saving to the taxpayers.
As soon as I receive a report from the Commission, I will pass the
information on to you.
Sincerely,
HERRICK OSBORNE, F. E.(si.gned)

Town Board -
Town of Queensbury
Glens Falls, New York -
Attention: Mrs, Frances Turner
Town Clerk
Gentlemen:
We have completed the survey of the Queensbury Town Dump -regarding
rodent problem.
The survey showed a high rodent population in spite of the fact that
this is a well managed dump. Its location does not lend itself to a
true sanitary land fill dump which would reduce the food available to
the rodents.
In view of the type of dump operation, a continuous rodent control
program is recommended. This program would consist of treating and
gassing rat burrows and harborages and baiting the area. This service
is offered on an annual basis at a charge of twenty dollars ($20.00)
per month.
The sooner this program can be inaugurated the better because, in the
Fall, when the dump is used less, there is a tendency of the rodents
to migrate for reasons of food and shelter. At the present time
neighboring residents are complaining of the rodents.
Our work is guaranteed and insured for both -liability and property
` damage. Our men are protected by Workmen's Compensation.
At the present time we are rendering this type of service to many area
dumps in Ford Edward, Lake George, Moriah, Fort Henry etc. We offer
them as recommendation.
Very truly yours,
