NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS
ORDERED:
1. The Town Board shall hold a public hearing to consider establishment of the
previously described proposed Sewer District Extension to the Central Queensbury Quaker Road
Sewer District to be known as Central Queensbury Quaker Road Sewer District Extension No. 9.
2.The boundaries of the proposed Sewer District Extension and benefited areas of the
Central Queensbury Quaker Road Sewer District are as set forth in the Map, Plan and Report
previously described in this Order and as follows:
All that certain piece or parcel of land situate, lying and being in the Town of Queensbury,
County of Warren and the State of New York, more particularly bounded and described as
follows: BEGINNING at a point in the easterly side of Bay Street at the northwest corner of
the lands conveyed to Stewarts Ice Cream Company, Inc.; running thence along said Bay
Road, North 05 degrees, 11 minutes and 12 seconds East, a distance of 161.63 feet;
continuing along Bay Road, North 05 degrees, 05 minutes and 41 seconds East, a distance of
362.4 feet to the southwest corner of lands of Bay Meadows Golf Club Inc.; thence running
along said lands southeasterly along a curve to the left having a radius of 25.00 feet a distance
of 39.27 feet; thence running South 84 degrees, 54 minutes and 19 seconds East, along the
southerly bounds thereof, a distance of 238.97 feet; thence running along a curve to the left
having a radius of 25.00 feet, a distance of 37.95 feet; thence running along a curve to right
2
having a radius of 70.00 feet, a distance of 219.59 feet; thence continuing along said lands of
Bay Meadows Golf Club Inc., South 83 degrees, 47 minutes and 10 seconds East, a distance
of 152.09 feet to an angle point therein for a corner; thence continuing along said lands of
Bay Meadows Golf Club Inc., South 06 degrees, 12 minutes and 50 seconds West, a distance
of 440.20 feet to the northeast corner of lands now or formerly of JBJ Queensbury, LLC;
thence running along said lands, North 81 degrees, 26 minutes and 40 seconds West, a
distance of 287.70 feet to the northwest corner thereof; thence running along said the
westerly line thereof, South 05 degrees, 53 minutes and 33 seconds West, a distance of 93.91
feet to the northeast corner of said lands of Stewarts Ice Cream Company, Inc.; thence
running along the northerly bounds thereof, North 84 degrees, 06 minutes and 27 seconds
West, a distance of 284.03 feet to the point and place of beginning, containing 6.37 acres of
lands to be the same more or less.
Bearings given in the above description refer to magnetic North.
SUBJECT to easements of record.
SUBJECT also to an easement of ingress and egress over the southwesterly corner of
said property as described in an easement granted by Roger W. Brassel to Stewarts Ice
Cream Company, Inc. recorded in book 1115 of deeds at page 24.
3. The proposed Sewer District Extension has been accomplished by installation of three
manholes and 785 LF of 8” PVC gravity sewer main connecting to a point of service at existing MH
#4-22B. Individual service lateral stubs to each property in the John W. Dreps Bay Road Subdivision
have been installed for connection as the properties develop. These collection sewers will become the
responsibility of the Town of Queensbury Wastewater Department and are included in the proposed
District facilities. Based upon the NYS DEC standard wastewater generation rate of 0.10 gallons per
day (gpd) per square foot of office building floor space and assuming 7,000 sf per lot for each of the
5 lots, the proposed Sewer District Extension will produce a projected wastewater flow of 3,500 gpd.
The existing downstream, receiving sewers consist of an 8” gravity sewer stub located on the east
3
side of Bay Road just north of the entrance to Stewarts and continues south on Bay Road to Cronin
Road. All wastewater generated within the District is collected and flows to the primary sewage
pumping station on Meadowbrook Road. It is then pumped through a 12” diameter force main
(westerly of Quaker Road and then south on Bay Road) to Sanford Street in the City of Glens Falls
where it discharges to the City sewer system. The Town’s Wastewater Director has indicated that
the Town collection system receiving the flows of this proposed Sewer District Extension has
adequate capacity to transport the expected flows to the City of Glens Falls Wastewater Treatment
Facility which ultimately provides treatment for the Town of Queensbury wastewater and the
proposed flow fits within capacity limits the Town has already contacted for from the City of Glens
Falls. All such Sewer District Extension improvements are more specifically delineated in the Map,
Plan and Report. The cost shall include a buy-in to the City of Glens Falls Wastewater Treatment
Plant in the amount of $3,500 ($1 per gallon fee x 3,500 gpd) due at the time of initial hook-up.
4. All costs of construction, legal and engineering fees shall be the responsibility of the
developer, John W. Dreps and are not intended to be shared by other users within the Sewer District
in accordance with a formula delineated in the Map, Plan and Report. The improvements shall be
constructed and installed in full accordance with the Town of Queensbury's specifications, ordinances
or local laws, any State laws or regulations, in accordance with approved plans and specifications and
under competent engineering supervision.
5. The maximum cost for the Sewer District Extension improvements will be $59,273.
The areas or properties that comprise the Extension will be subject to the same cost for operation,
maintenance and capital improvements as in the Central Queensbury Quaker Road Sewer District.
6. The estimated cost of hook-up fees to the typical property will be $3,000 to $5,000.
The estimated annual cost of the Sewer District Extension to the properties will be $61.49 for a
vacant lot and $122.98 for a developed lot plus approximately $994.64 for sewer rents for a total
estimated annual cost of $1,056.13 for a vacant lot and $1,117.62 for a developed lot. Since there
are none, the estimated annual cost for a one or two family home would be $0 for debt service and
approximately $0 per year for sewer rents for a total estimated annual cost of $0. There are no one or
4
two family homes in the Sewer District Extension, so their hook-up cost would be $0.00. The
proposed Sewer District Extension contains commercial class property; there is no residential
property.
7. In accordance with Town Law §206-a, all future expenses of the Central Queensbury
Quaker Road Sewer District, including all extensions included heretofore or hereafter established,
shall be a charge against the entire area of the district as extended.
8. The Map, Plan and Report describing the improvements, area involved and a detailed
explanation of hook-up fees and cost of the District to the typical property, and, if different, the
typical one or two family home, is on file with the Queensbury Town Clerk and is available for public
inspection.
9. The Town Board shall meet and hold a public hearing at the Queensbury Activities
th
Center, 742 Bay Road, Queensbury at 7:00 p.m., on Monday, March 19, 2007 to consider the Map,
Plan and Report, hear all persons interested in the proposal and take such other and further action as
may be required or authorized by law.
10. The Town Board hereby authorizes and directs the Queensbury Town Clerk to duly
publish and post this Order not less than ten (10) days nor more than twenty (20) days before the
public hearing date, as required by Town Law §209-d, and complete or arrange for the securing of
two (2) Affidavits of Publication of Notice and two (2) Affidavits of Posting of Notice of the Public
Hearing required hereby and to file a certified copy of this Order with the State Comptroller on or
about the date of publication.
12. The Town Board hereby authorizes and directs the Town of Queensbury Executive
Director of Community Development to prepare a report on any environmental impacts that should
be considered at the time a SEQRA review is conducted.
13. The Town Board further authorizes and directs the Executive Director of Community
5
