QUEENSBURY BOARD OF HEALTH RESOLUTION ENTERING BOARD OF HEALTH RESOLUTION NO. 434, 92 INTRODUCED BY: Mr. Pliney Tucker WHO MOVED FOR ITS ADOPTION SECONDED BY: Mr. Nick Caimano RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Queensbury hereby adjourns from Regular Session and enters into the Queensbury Board of Health. Duly adopted this 17th, day of August, 1992 by the following vote: All Those In Favor: Ayes All Those Opposed: None Absent: None PUBLIC HEARING SEWER VARIANCE CHARLES HILLEBRANDT SR. Supervisor Brandt-Dave can you lead us through this, tell us what's up here, what's the problem? Mr. David Hatin-Basically, there is a memo in the file, I don't know if you have that, I put in the file today. Mr. Hillebrandt has a narrow piece of property. The back of it is taken up by a pool, garage and several pieces of property, in fact I don't see Mr. Hillebrandt here yet. It's the only logical place that we could find, was the front yard, unfortunately to do that we had to make him apply for these four variances so that's what's before you tonight. He is well aware of the risks he's taken by placing it closer to his foundation than allowed. The property line is not really a serious problem although it does put it closer to the neighbors. As far as I've been advised everyone is on Town water and there is no other alternative because of the size of the system he needs for his home. PUBLIC HEARING OPENED Supervisor Brandt-I will open this up to anyone in the public that has questions or comments on this request for a variance. Any questions from anyone in the board? Councilman Monahan-Just one thing here. In your letter we're talking about a variance for Charles Hillebrandt. In the body of your letter it says, and the system will be retained on Mr. Rossi's property. Mr. Hatin- That's just a clarification so in case your wondering if it's going on a neighbors property it's totally on his property. Councilman Monahan-On whose property? Mr. Hatin-Mr. Hillebrandt's. Councilman Monahan-But, it says the system will be retained on Mr. Rossi's property. Mr. Hatin-Maybe it's a bad choice of words. Basically what it means is that it's going to stay on his property it will not be on a neighbors property. Councilman Monahan-Mr. Rossi is a neighbor? Mr. Hatin-No. It should be Mr. Hillebrandt. Councilman Goetz-I think it's just a typo. Councilman Monahan-That's what I was wondering. Mr. Hatin-It might be a typo and I didn't pick up on it, I apologize for that. I was working on a couple different issues today and that's probably why. Supervisor Brandt-Any other comments, we're in a public hearing on a application for a variance for Mr. Charles Hillebrandt? Are you by chance here to speak on that? Any questions of Mr. Hillebrandt? Councilman Caimano- No. Supervisor Brandt-If there is no other discussion, I will close the public hearing. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED RESOLUTION APPROVING A SANITARY SEW AGE DISPOSAL VARIANCE FOR CHARLES WM. HILLIBRANDT, SR. RESOLUTION NO.: 19,92 INTRODUCED BY: Mr. Nick Caimano WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION SECONDED BY: Mrs. Susan Goetz WHEREAS, Mr. Charles Wm. Hillibrandt, Sr., previously filed a request for four (4) variances from certain provisions of the Town of Queensbury On-Site Sewage Disposal Ordinance, such provisions being more specifically that requiring that there be a 10 foot separation between the dry well and the property line, and a 20' separation between the dry well and the dwelling, and WHEREAS, a notice of public hearing was given in the official newspaper of the Town of Queensbury and a public hearing was held in connection with the variance request on August 17, 1992, and WHEREAS, the Town Clerk advises that property owners within 500 feet of the subject property have been duly notified, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, a) that due to the nature of the variances, it is felt that the variations will not be materially detrimental to the purposes and objectives of this Ordinance or to other adjoining properties or otherwise conflict with the purpose and objectives of any plan or policy of the Town of Queensbury; b) that the Local Board of Health finds that the granting of the variances is necessary for the reasonable use of the land and that the variances are granted as the minimum variances which would alleviate the specific unnecessary hardship found by the Local Board of Health to affect the applicant; and c) that the Local Board of Health imposes a condition upon the applicant that he must also secure the approval of the New York State Department of Health, and BE IT FURTHER, RESOLVED, that the Town of Queensbury Local Board of Health grants the variances to Mr. Charles Wm. Hillibrandt, Sr., allowing the placement of the dry well: 1) 2' from a property line, rather than placing it at the mandated 10' distance; 2) 6' from the north property line, rather than placing it at the mandated 10' distance; 3) 7' from the road, rather than placing it at the mandated 10' distance; and 4) 15' from the foundation wall, rather than placing it at the mandated 20' distance; on property situated between Dix Avenue and The Boulevard, south of the South Queensbury Firehouse, Queensbury, New York, and bearing Tax Map #: Section 111, Block 7, Lot 19.

Duly adopted this 17th, day of August, 1992, by the following vote: All Those In Favor: Ayes All Those Opposed: None Absent: None DISCUSSION REORGANIZATION BOB PARISI Supervisor Brandt-We're at the point of discussing reorganization. I've handed one to each of the board members the flow chart is slightly different than the one, we made these up Friday and on the weekend I was in and made a little change, I thought might make sense. I talked to Bob about it today and passed out a copy of it. Mr. Parisi-Essentially this is a flow chart which is now computered generated it's a little bit neater. We have some slight alternations in the initial plan, but it's essentially the same thing. What it essentially calls for is again, this is a reiteration of last Monday. An Executive Director which essentially oversees all the departments including the enforcement activities in many respects of the Building Department, Zoning Administration and the planning activities involving both boards and dealing with both boards. Directly working with the Executive Director we'll have two Assistant Planners essentially. One Assistant Planner, I think this is entitled Planner #1, is essentially a generalist, by that I mean a multi-disciplinary planner who can work with the Planning Board, Zoning Board of Appeals, amend laws, I should say make suggested or proposed amendments to laws, do field work, do computer graphics, input or computerize different ordinances so we have them for cross referencing and a lot of other typical planner duties. The other aspect, I don't believe this was here last week was the aspect of a Planner/Engineer that's the third title here and that's also under Assistant Planner on the flow chart. What a Planner/Engineer is essentially a planner or an engineer it doesn't really matter which with a very strong physical background, I don't mean personally physical... Supervisor Brandt-That could be an architect? Mr. Parisi-That could be an architect it could a PE, it could be a geologist, hydrologist, whatever. But, what it amounts to is someone that can get involved with the actual site designs that both the code enforcement people are overseeing in their enforcement activities for shopping centers and other major projects as well as subdivision activities that the Planning Board is involved in that we're currently are a consultant to. To look at roads, drainage, physical infrastructure things like that, that's the Planner/Engineer title. As I said, we've been looking into individuals that might have a background in this just in the course of interviewing for the Assistant Planner in fact, approximately seven engineers applied for that position. Councilman Monahan-With experience? Mr. Parisi-One has as much as twelve years with C.T. Male. I have another that has ten years with a local firm also. Councilman Monahan-Excuse me Bob, type of engineering experience that they've had? Mr. Parisi-Subdivision activity, working with municipal governments involving in some cases sewer districts, water infrastructure, building and expecting roads, things like that. It is really ideal if we had something like that in staff without budgeting additional monies for it would be a very big asset to what we're doing. We wouldn't have to hire a consultant is what that means. It also means that the code enforcement people would have a professional on staff to look at site designs when they're looking at shopping centers and subdivisions and things of that sort that really require a little more than a code enforcement person as far as expertise goes. With the code enforcement we have three Code Enforcement Officers which we currently employ and one Chief Building Inspector for a total of four people. Three of them right now are Assistant Code Enforcement Officers, one is a building inspector that's just a civil service title. The difference here in this case would be the Chief Building Inspector would take on, I guess what you might say would be a reduced profile from what was the Director of Building and Codes to Chief Building Inspector which would mean that the administrative work which is normally associated with personnel and with referrals, inter-agency, communications would no longer fall under the purview of that person. The three Code Enforcement Officers essentially would be unchanged as far as what their duties are. Although, there is an option for rolling Dog Control into Code Enforcement as I said, that's an option. The other position under code enforcement is the Fire Marshal. Right now the Deputy Fire Marshal is shouldering the majority of the work and when code enforcement people have free time which will be the case in the off season probably from October to late May they will help the Assistant Fire Marshal. Essentially he has a back log of eight or nine weeks right now so there will be no problem finding work to do in that area. The other positions here are essentially clerical. The first and most important of which is that of the Office Manager. The person which we propose to be the Office Manager is currently a Senior Typist her role will change most dramatically among all the clerical people in that she would become essentially a conduit between what amounted to five different departments so that they could act as one. In essence all of the purchase orders, all of the time sheets, personnel matters, things that have to be brought to my attention go through the Office Manager so does all the work that has to be put into what amounts to be a secretarial pool which would consist of the Office Manager and three additional people. All of the clerical work can be looked at as collectively rather than clerical work for the building department, clerical work for zoning department, clerical work for the planning department, will be able to put it all under one hat so to speak and in so doing probably be able to eliminate one position. My suggestion here was to use the two senior typist's that we already have in addition to the office manager and re-channel their efforts. In one case we've already made one a zoning clerk. This is a position that she has more or less occupied for the last five or six years it more less restating something that is already a fact. We have another senior typist and that's a civil service description that would continue what's she is doing and that's essentially transcribing minutes, but she would be asked to do a number of clerical chores in addition to that such as filling in for anyone that is in essentially the secretarial pool whenever additional secretarial work is necessary. The last person in the clerical staff is right now, I think is rated a typist and is currently assigned to the building department and this person would continue in that capacity and would be what amounted to, I guess the other end of the line of communication between the office manager and the rest of the staff. There would be whatever movement of purchase orders and building permits would probably go through this particular typist as would the reception duties of people coming in for building permits she would be the first person you would see if you wanted to build a deck or put in a swimming pool or whatever, that job would essentially continue as is. To make up for the fact that there may be one fewer clerical person we have physically shifted the zoning clerk so that she is essentially in the same office as the building clerks so that it's possible to do double duties especially between September and April when there isn't that much demand. The same holds true for the clerical person that's doing the transcription of the minutes there is sort of a cross training there where she can do certain tasks that the other clerical people are doing and will be involving zoning and planning issues especially because that's essentially where her training is going to all the planning and zoning meetings. At this point, do you have any questions? Councilman Goetz-Yes. Under typist pool in the diagram it shows two senior typist is that right? Mr. Parisi-That's what there positions are now. Councilman Goetz-But, isn't this proposed? Supervisor Brandt-There is actually three senior typist's right now. This shows two senior typist's and one clerk typist. Also for everybody's information, I did this little job which maybe helpful may not be. But what I did, Nick kind of asked for an analysis of where we are and where we're proposing to go. So I did where we were at the beginning of the year under these departments what salaries were. In here where it's hourly this is a spread sheet program and so I put in a formula for the number of hours times the rate and the computer generates the number. You'll find if you add the numbers up they don't add to the exact total because they are rounded off and the rounded off number always carries down and it's in the total so the total maybe just a dollar higher than it should be, but that's part of the computer you have to get used to. What we're doing currently is in the middle colunm that's where we are today. The far right colunm, I showed what's being proposed here that's subject to all of the decisions that need to be made to go along with this. Councilman Monahan-I've got some technical questions that I'm going to ask between Paul Dusek and Kathleen whoever can give me the information. Code Enforcement Officer is a civil service test, Dog Control is a civil service test. Attorney Dusek-That's correct. Councilman Monahan-Is it possible to slide two civil service tests into one position? Would a new civil service test have to be created if we're going to put two types of civil service classifications under one heading? Attorney Dusek-The answer to that question is it's possible in fact, I'm currently looking into that at the request of Bob to see if in fact the two positions could be merged without further testing or if in fact they can be merged. It is not altogether uncommon for two positions to be merged and not require a new test. A lot of it just depends on the nature of the job and what percentage of the job the new duties are going to be, you know that type of thing. We're looking into it, I'll have an answer for the board in the not too distant future. Councilman Monahan-And then we've had a person who has had the title of senior typist is now the title of clerk typist, I know that those are pretty specific about what your duties are within those two fields. I'm just wondering if the duties the person does now as a senior typist really qualify as a clerk typist? Attorney Dusek-I don't think that change has been made. Councilman Caimano-One of the senior typist becomes the office manager. Councilman Monahan-The one whose doing the transcription of the minutes now is a senior typist and in the revised one that Mike just gave us he made that position a clerk typist. I'm not sure if that title will cover under civil service the duties that are assigned to her. Attorney Dusek-This is the first I've heard of it, I'd have to check that out. Supervisor Brandt-My information is that it will, but I'm not an expert in that field. That's a matter it's about a two thousand dollar item if you look at the colunm over at the left on the spread sheet it shows you as a senior typist on the right it's a clerk typist it's only two thousand dollars difference it's not going to make or break the idea here. But, I think we do have to look at the specific duties and to make sure that it's properly classified. Also, I have to tell you when I did this one it's a drawing program and I just copied all of this data out of one program and pasted it over here so the same numerical errors will show up with the rounding off on this sheet as they are on that sheet, but it sure saves a lot of time in typing. Councilman Monahan- I will ask Bob Parisi this question. You have as an assistant to you right now a person very knowledgeable in the planning field with a lot of background, a lot of knowledge, a lot of things they don't have to look up because they have the knowledge inside them obviously there is no place on the setup for that person. I'm therefore asking if you truly feel with the lack that we have in the planning department right now a lot that isn't being done because neither one of you have any time to do any pure planning at this time, if you truly believe that between yourself and two planners new to this Town and a planner that's going to be asked to do other duties as engineering, architect, whatever you want to call them if you truly feel that two people are going to be enough or if a third planner is going to have to be put on in order to fill this type of void? Mr. Parisi-That's a big question. To answer it the first way that I want to answer that is anyway that we handle the planner situation we're going to need the senior planner to stay on for a specified amount of time. My understanding was that was implicit in this that amount of time is up to you as a board. In regard to these two positions would there be a third it's a little to early to tell. One thing is for certain that going into this time frame we are going to have less activity in the next eight months than we would of had in the last four. We're going into the off season for building so I would say regardless of what happens with the recession or building boom we're not going to have a lot of activity. In regard to specifically how much planning board and zoning board input we're going to have to give this is essentially the down time September through March, April, then it picks up very precipitously and peaks in June and July. By that time, I would think that any new staff would be up to speed, however, there is going to be an intermediate period where and I've spoke with everyone on the board about this where we're going to need the senior planner for a specified length of time. The senior planner has asked me to make her position definite as to how much time that is whether it's a day or week or month she would appreciate knowing what that time frame is as well. Councilman Goetz-I think that is a decision that we need to make in fairness to the person. Mr. Parisi-Yes, absolutely. Supervisor Brandt-I think properly what we ought to do is have an executive session on that matter here tonight. We have wages, we have personnel to discuss here, specific things, I don't think belongs in public session. I have to tell you this is a very sticky thing when your doing a reorganization under New York Law you have to by law state what it is your doing in your reorganization in open session it certainly affects people's lives. It would be awfully nice to be able to do some of this in executive session and have one to one contact with these people before we go open with it, but under the law you really can't do that. It's difficult for all of us and most difficult for our employees. Councilman Monahan-I, Mike, to interrupt, I am not thinking along those lines. I am thinking not of a specific person as much as I'm thinking of the work to be done. I don't want to be lead down this false path to paradise knowing what's being done now and what's being projected to be done that perhaps we have enough salary in there to cover the amount of people it's going to take to do that type of work that's my whole point for asking the question. I also asked Paul Dusek a question that concerns me a little bit when I hear about a planner/engineer with all this type of experience. The thought just occurred to me and maybe it's not an important point. When we hire a consultant they have professional liability insurance if we start to go to far with the things in which we do within this Town relative to plans that are submitted are we opening ourselves up to a liability situation? Attorney Dusek- I think it always possible because the activities the individual engages in could cross that threshold. But as a general proposition the person that's working for the Town as long as they remain within that capacity no matter what their professional licenses are that the Town would not be unduly exposed anymore than it is for any other person that's working for it. I think a professional person has to be careful just simply not to cross the line of creating a situation where he or she is in effect working for the other side in developing a reliance as built up upon on some outside person. Councilman Monahan-That's my concern. I guess it's because I attended many national legal seminars on this particular question that you have to be very careful where you stand in your field not to cross over into the next guys field which would be the realm of the applicant's architect, engineer, etc. Attorney Dusek-That's really a training issue an educating issue that could be dealt with. I certainly would not counsel getting a professional person such as a engineer if your able to do that for that reason because I think that could be addressed. Councilman Monahan- I think we have to be very careful of how we state the perimeters of that persons duties and what they can really do. Attorney Dusek-Sure. Councilman Monahan-As I often cautioned the Planning Board your not in the business of design. Councilman Caimano-On the basic organizational chart itself just looking at it as an organizational chart while it sounds like it's picking this is what causes problems in the long fUll. You have straight lines coming the Executive Director to the Office Manager, Assistant Planner and Chief Building Inspector in essence making all three of those on the same level. It seems to me as an organizational chart it would be a lot better if those lines came directly off of the box that says Executive Director and went to Chief Building Inspector and Assistant Planner only instead of this cross hatch having it go down so that it doesn't appear, I don't like the idea that the Office Manager is at the same level as the professional's. With the dotted line responsibility between the Assistant Planners and the Chief Building back and forth to the Office Manager it's a small point, but it could lead to problems. Mr. Parisi-Would you like to know what the intention was? Councilman Caimano- Yes. Mr. Parisi-That's good. Councilman Monahan-Excuse me, just a minute Bob, I don't know which one your looking at. Councilman Caimano- The fifteenth one. Councilman Monahan-The fourteenth and the fifteenth one are set up differently, I didn't notice that. Have you got the fifteenth one it's different that the fourteenth. Mr. Parisi-Yes, slightly. Councilman Caimano-Massively in terms of what happens. Mr. Parisi-Would you like me to explain this, I'd be happy to. My intention and I think this is very important is that the clerical people are directed by me not by building inspectors, planners, assistant planners, fire marshals, code enforcement officers. The way that I do that and I have been doing that for the last month is the person that's acting as the office manager gets essentially a enumeration every night of what I expect to be done and followed up on the next day a very extensive enumeration. In essence what I do, I have the office manager aware of what I need to get from the planners from the director of building and codes, from myself in fact, to remind me because my short term memory is not infallible and from the clerical people. The result is that in essence work doesn't get unfairly sent to one clerical person over another. If we're going to do it as a pool it's very important for one person, this is where the office manager comes in to be able to coordinate clerical duties rather than a building inspector or a chief building inspector to give it to one particular person or either assistant planner to give it to one particular person, I thought that was a very important point that it be very fairly distributed. The other aspect is that the office manager needs to report to me regarding the progress of the preparation of the Planning Board meetings, Zoning Board of Appeals meetings by the assistant planners and/or by the enforcement activities of the chief building inspector. Everything that I give the office manager to do on these lines are also in writing literally almost daily. The reasoning for that and it's a very good reason is because, I spend any where from thirty five hours a week in meetings so I'm not always accessible at any given minute when something comes up. Yet, I need to extend my arm outside of meetings to be certain that someone is following through with what my wishes are. In otherwords, I direct very actively and to do that I've got to surrogate that responsibility very specifically, very focused, to one person. The office manager is actually in a surrogate directing assistant planners, building inspectors, and everyone else in my absence when I'm there that isn't the case. Supervisor Brandt-That could be shown with solid lines. Councilman Caimano- What your saying is a very good plan, but looking at it in your direction it sounds good. All I'm asking you to do is to look at it from the direction of the assistant planners and the chief building inspectors. Would they in essence see the office manager as your right hand man, someone to report through or even defacto to report through, if that's the case I don't like it, I want an assistant to and not an assistant. Mr. Parisi-In certain issues. Let me tell you what issues the office manager becomes an assistant. They are rather clerical things like time sheets, vouchers, purchase orders, request for information and things of that sort. There is no reason for every time someone has a time sheet or wants to take a half an hour longer for lunch they have to come to me. At the same time I have the office manager reporting to me directly on all of these activities. In otherwords if there are time sheets to be signed or if there are purchase orders to be looked at she will come to me collectively with everyone's purchase orders and time sheets rather than coming piece meal one at a time with fourteen people to deal with that's a tremendous distraction and waste of time those are the kind of things she does as an assistant. The other items specifically giving planners instructions, I give her written instructions which she does take a transcription on her computer and hands to someone like the senior planner. I don't think that's really surrogating or giving her the authority of the assistant director rather it makes her just a conduit where she has access to all of my wishes and knows exactly what is expected that day from various people. I do it every night, I have a very long list in my computer and that's the way I have it formatted. Then she follows through and reminds me about things that I've forgotten to do or meant to do, asked her to remind me to do. It's a very good system, I don't see why you should have a problem with it. Councilman Goetz-Where are you suggesting to put it, I'm not sure I understood it. Councilman Caimano- Where am I suggesting to put it? Councilman Goetz-That position on the diagrarn. Councilman Caimano-Just like you've got it on there, show Sue. Supervisor Brandt -Your saying that could be dotted or solid lines across there? Councilman Caimano- The real responsibility goes to him, but they have access to. Mr. Parisi-Everyone has access to me. Councilman Caimano-Well, there is access to and then there is other. Mr. Parisi -You can put her whereever you like. Supervisor Brandt-The line chart can't show all those details and it isn't meant to. I think your point is correct and I think we could make some corrections there that would be helpful. Councilman Caimano-Let's go to another question that Bob brings up, I have it here too. It is this kind of a setup and the kind of responsibilities that you are taking upon yourself while certainly heroic and certainly we look for good work also raising the spectra of insolation. One of the things we've had going well for us in this Town, I think Mr. Tucker as a builder could probably vouch for is that you can come in this small Town and touch the people you have to talk to. In an organization such as this are you not have the top person become isolated, therefore not being able to be touched by the people that have to touch him? Mr. Parisi-I'm certainly very touchable. In fact, I do many of the field inspections myself. You can make this organizational chart look anyway you like. It's sort of like the ink block test your seeing in it whatever it looks like to you that's fine but, I'm not isolated. I'm not a part from meeting with anyone regarding anything, I do separate myself from wasting my time. It's very clear the position such as the one that I'm in my time is extremely valuable to the Town's and it's very important for me to delegate certain task to certain people which, I do in essence every night. After hours, I simply type out an enumeration give it to the office manager and while I'm in meetings most of the next day or out in the field I can be relatively certain my directions are being carried out. If, I didn't follow this process and I was, again in meetings with various people all during the day there would be no way of being certain that anything on my behalf I would direct to be done is actually being followed up with that's absolutely essential to any organization. That's by reasoning and I believe in it stead fastly. Councilman Caimano- Two more questions, Mike. When you drew up this organizational chart, I assume you took into account all seniorities especially when it comes time for layoffs and displacement of people? Mr. Parisi-That's correct. Councilman Caimano-Have any efforts been made or can we make any efforts to place those people that are going to be displaced if in fact this organizational chart goes through? Mr. Parisi-That's up to you. Attorney Dusek-That would be a good example of something that would qualify for executive session. When your talking about a particular person... Councilman Caimano-Just in general. There are several people who are displaced. Attorney Dusek-You would talk about each one of those people and whether or not they could be placed into the system at some point or in some other part. It seems to me that's a proper subject matter because you would be talking about their employment history, qualifications that would be proper for executive seSSIOn. Councilman Caimano-Okay. I guess, lastly is we'll talk about that in executive session talk about money. Supervisor Brandt-I think there are many things that need to be discussed in executive session and I think we need to do that before we do a final resolution on this. I would propose that we do that at the end of the meeting and then go back into open session. Councilman Caimano-I think you make a very good point, I think the Supervisor makes a very good point. It's not an easy thing to do because we're hand strung by rules and regulations and laws all the more reason why anything like this should be extremely well thought out, every test made, every leaf overturned to find out if we're doing the right thing. Councilman Monahan-That's why I really wonder how we can do a resolution because Paul has to do research into civil service and etc. I think maybe we should do our executive session get all the information we can tonight and let Paul do his research and revisit this as far as a formal resolution is concerned. I hate to do something that we have to undo because we didn't know all the rules and regulations relative to civil service and everything.

(Councilman Caimano left room during discussion returned after discussion was over) Councilman Tucker-The following letter was read into the record. Mr. Bill Threw, has a sign asking for land fill from construction projects on Eagan Road just west of his sons house. I hope he will supervise what goes into that ravine because dangerous chemicals, asbestos and all manner of things could go into the ground there. I presume that ravine has a brook coming out of it because the ravine near us all have brooks. We have no objection to clean landfill going there, but there is a strong possibility that it won't be clean. Also, since the Carey Road was closed we have only one way out in case of fire. I wish the Town of Queensbury would do something about that. Sincerely, Gladys Lapham Councilman Monahan-Questioned Mr. Parisi about the wording of the sign on Mr. Threw's property.

If he does get approval he has been advised that he will need a fence variance and sign permit, could find nothing that will limit the size of the sign in the residential zone related to this. Mr. Hatin noted he could call DEC and asked if the fence comes down and the sign comes down does it stop him in the permit process...Town Board agreed to this...Mr. Parisi sent letters to Mr. Parisi noting that permits will be needed for the sign and the fence...Mr. Hatin to contact Gerry Beres who is dealing directly with the project...Will send letter to Town Board and Mr. Parisi regarding this matter.

First Mike, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your bold action re: the withdrawal of Queensbury from the proposed Warren County Sewer Project. We will support you in your continued efforts to bring this matter to a satisfactory conclusion. We petition you at this time to call for a public meeting of the Lake George Affairs Committee and the Warren County Board of Supervisors prior to August 28, when the final EIS is scheduled to be submitted by Clough Harbor Associates. This will give you the opportunity to put forth the resolution which was drafted by you and your board in order to have Queensbury removed from the final EIS. We feel that any action by the Lake George Affairs Committee to circumvent your resolution would only result in needless and costly litigation. If, as an organized citizens group, we can assist in any way, please feel free to contact us. Thank you for your consideration...
