Approval of June 28, 2004 Minutes:
Barry Pritchard made a Motion that the June 28, 2004 Minutes
be approved. Ken Kern seconded the Motion. All ayes. Motion
carried.
Comprehensive Plan:
Judy Watson stated that all members received a copy of the Definitions
from the County Planning Board. She stated that nothing was
sent regarding the Agricultural District.
Fran Dellamano stated he was not satisfied with the definitions.
He did not feel we could do a thing with them as written. We
were asking for help. We had an agreement with the County Planning
Board, which was signed. The Supervisor, Vicky Mullen should
have that Agreement. He stated we should get some guidance from
the State, and see how other towns word their definitions. Judy
explained when she talked to Brian Frazier, that we had received
the map, but not the definitions. Fran Dellamano stated the
definitions should be more complex, as these sheets don't look
like definitions. Ken Kern said they look more like the end
result. Judy Watson said she would go back to the County Planning
Board, and speak with Brian Frazier.
Judy Watson asked the Secretary to obtain a copy of the Agreement
between Oswego Town and the County Planning Board from the Supervisor,
so we could all go over it at the next meeting.
Application #2003-01 - VIP Structures:
Judy Watson received a letter from Jeff Wallace of Empire Fresh
Cuts, LLC, stating that at this time, they could not afford
to blacktop the driveway. She made copies of the letter for
all the members. However, at the time it was approved, blacktop
was not an issue; it was oil and stone. Ken Kern had the minutes
with him from July 14, 2003. He quoted "That there be an
oil and stone driveway on the south side from the road back
490 feet." Fran Dellamano stated this should go back to
the Code Enforcement Officer. Judy stated she would have the
secretary write a letter to Jeff Wallace of Empire Fresh Cuts.
It should state that we reviewed the proposal in Empire Fresh
Cut's letter, and the Board feels we should go with the original
plan in the July 14, 2003 minutes, which was motioned and carried,
and state it should be approved by such and such a date. It
was originally to be completed by July 7th. We should not put
all the discussion in the letter, but we are on record of discussion
of the circumstances.
John Pritchard made a motion that the letter sent from Empire
Fresh Cuts to the Oswego Town Planning Board requesting that
liquid calcium be used in lieu of oil and stone, that after
some discussion, according to the Site Plan as stated at the
July 14,2003 meeting, which was the decision on that date; there
should be oil and stone on the South side of the road, back
490 feet, to be completed by August 15, 2004, as a condition
of the Planning Board's approval. Lee Phillips seconded the
motion. All ayes. Motion carried.
Perry Noun - Fred Haynes Blvd.
Judy Watson stated she is still receiving phone calls from Perry
Noun, and that she plans to meet with him at some point. He
still wants to discuss the development of Fred Haynes Blvd.
Fran Dellamano suggested she should not meet with him one on
one. Mr. Noun should be invited to attend a Planning Board Meeting,
so that all members can be included in the discussion. That
way, one cannot say "She told me this and she told me that".
Judy agreed and she will tell him she shared his conversations
with the Board, and will invite him to attend a meeting. Kathryn
Wolfe, Attorney, also agreed it is up to the Board to make a
decision, not just one person.
