REGULAR BOARD MEETING
JANUARY 20, 1993
TOHN HALL
7:P.M.
Reed Garver - Lower East Hill Road, on behalf of the Boston Free
Library, Board of Trustees asked to recycle their request for
assistance for the driveway and parking facilities providing
better access to the Library for all patrons, especially Senior
Citizens and the Handicapped.
Mr. Garver presented the Town Board with a petition containing
one hundred and sixty-two (162) signatures. Supervisor Kennedy
thanked Mr. Garver for the petitions. We have a packet that we
work in conjunction with our Grants person and this is one of
the concerns we have at the Town Hall, also. We have made the
lower rear of the building handicap accessible, unfortunately if
you had a wheelchair you would not be able to get from the
parking lot to the handicapped ramp, so it really doesn't help
to much to have the building handicap accessible if you cannot
get from where you park your vehicle to the entrance. It is in
very dire need of work both in the entry way and the parking
area.
Supervisor Kennedy commented that we are penalized each year
with a certain point system that has been established by the
people that regulate the grants. Before we were portioned out
a certain amount of money each year to each municipality and we
weire unable to do projects of any size because of the small
amount of money that was apportioned, so they collectively
apportion the money now into one large pot and it is competitive
between all the members of the consortium in competing for these
funds. There is a regular point system that is established to
rate each of these projects. Hopefully, we will get
consideration, although the competitive situation is getting
very difficult each year. The projects are refined and put in
to the point where almost all of them qualify and it is just a
case of which get the higher point system. We will try to
forward both the Library Project and the Senior Citizens
Project. There were no other questions or comments.
A motion was made by Supervisor Kennedy and seconded by
Councilman Wittmeyer to close the Public Hearing at 8:08 P.M.
five (5) Ayes Carried
Supervisor Kennedy stated that the Board will not take action on
the selection of the Projects until the next Town Board Meeting
on February 3, 1993, at which time they will be forwarded to
Community Development for review.
