Reports
from Town Officers: Supervisor Lewis reported he had received a
call about snow plowing on Cherry Drive and he had sold two more used culverts
and now has two used culverts left for sale. Supervisor Van Asten
reported on a concern he had when installing a new 911 physical address number
on Hilbert Street in Zachow. There are already three numbers on a post in
front of a driveway and putting another number could be confusing if there was
a rescue call as to just where the rescue squad had to go.
Chairman Smith reported
(1) there was no N.E.W. Para-Medic Squad meeting this month (2) the Fire
Department presently has 44 members with 39 being active. For the year to date there have been 93 runs
compared to 89 last year with 9 calls for the Town of Angelica. The Department is still in the running for a
FEMA Grant through Round 34. The Benefit
Booyah Sale with the Knights of Columbus was very
successful. There have not been any new
offers for the two old fire trucks. The
town will be asked to pass a resolution in regard to a new inspection code –
NFPD-1. (3) he,
his grandson and a friend picked up 38 car tires and 1 tractor tire that
someone backed into a field and dumped.
They added these tires to those that were already picked up during the
tire pickup day and the load is waiting to be delivered to the vendor who
recycles them. (4) Control Group came
and inspected the three furnaces in the town hall and found that the heat
exchangers, plates and ignitors have to be replaced
in the two furnaces serving the hall, and (5) he had been asked for a
contribution from the town for a sports poster.
Clerk Powers gave the
board a summary of Public Works expenditures compared to budget as of the end
of this year which showed the expenditures are just slightly lower than
budgeted and also gave the board an estimate of the year-end balance for the
town. There were no building permits
issued since the last report given in November.
Report
from Town Planning Commission Chairman: Town of Angelica Planning Commission Chairman
Richard Ferfecki was not present at this meeting.
Public Comments: MOTION (Lewis/Van Asten/PASSED) to open the meeting up for public
comments. Barney Eckberg
inquired as to how the County was going to be enforcing the A-290 minimum depth
for lots and was informed that the town would have to do its own subdivision
ordinance if they wish to enforce a 290 ft. minimum depth for lots and also a
lot size of two acres versus the one and one-half acres required in the new
proposed zoning ordinance. James Mills
inquired as to what has happened in regard to “No Parking” signs located on
