RESOLUTION NO. 61, 94
INTRODUCED BY: Mr. Fred Champagne
WHO MOVED FOR IT'S ADOPTION
SECONDED BY: Mrs. Betty Monahan
WHEREAS, representatives of Warren County have proposed the
preparation of a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS)
for the Warren County Sewer Project, and
WHEREAS, the purpose of this SEIS is to develop a plan to
resolve the wastewater management deficiencies for properties in
the northern portion of the Town of Queensbury that lie within the
Lake George Drainage Basin, and
WHEREAS, representatives of Warren County have expressed a
desire to resolve the wastewater management deficiencies for
northern Queensbury through a certain plan,
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT
RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Queensbury
supports the preparation of the SEIS but only if the same does not
pre-select one solution but rather equally and fully evaluates the
potential socio-economic and environmental impacts of solutions for
the northern portion of the Town of Queensbury, which include: a
Wastewater Management District (holding tanks /clustering systems),
Conveyance to an area behind the North Queensbury Fire House
solution, a Wetlands Distribution solution, a Lake George Sewage
Plant Conveyance solution together with any other usually required
alternatives that may exist and would be required to be explored in
the SEQRA process, and
BE IT FURTHER
RESOLVED, that the Town Board supports this action as stated
in the previous paragraph of this Resolution as long as the costs
associated with the preparation of the SEIS will be funded entirely
by Warren County and with the understanding that should any of the
proposed solutions or alternatives prove viable, the Town will not
be obligated to proceed with construction or undertake operation of
any sewage system or incur any costs without further approval of
the Town Board of the Town of Queensbury which approval will rest
with the sole discretion of the said Town Board.
Duly adopted this 31st day of January, 1994, by the following
