Chief Denz emphasized that this project is in the infant stages and it will take several months before he will have a complete proposal. Many groups are interested in this topic and there will be a public hearing at the appropriate time.

1. Councilman Hanley re NYSDOT proposal for concrete culvert at Harlem Road Park
|
|
Mr. Renjit James P.E., of the NYSDOT Region 5 office, explained their ongoing project to replace the Route 400 bridge over Harlem Road. As part of the project, in the fall of 2016 they would like to replace the 5’ x 4’ culvert at Harlem Road Park with a 10’ x 5’ culvert, which would solve the existing drainage problems at the park. In order to proceed with this replacement, NYSDOT needs to acquire one-tenth of an acre of park land from the town, a portion that is not a utilized segment of the park, and a public hearing is required.

Motion by Supervisor Meegan, seconded by Councilman Hart, to open the public hearing.
Ayes: All Noes: None Motion Carried
Jennifer Toy questioned if the NYSDOT will be digging up any more of Harlem Road this year. Mr. James responded the roadway under the bridge will be replaced along with the culvert and it will be necessary to close off traffic to do this.
Councilman Hanley questioned if the two projects will be done at the same time. Mr. James explained the culvert replacement will be done separately from the bridge replacement. Four road closures are anticipated for the bridge and Route 400 northbound will be closed from Friday evening to Monday morning each time.
Town Engineer Steven Tanner requested the NYSDOT have 4” diameter pumps on site during replacement of the culvert to prevent flooding of basements of surrounding residences. He further suggested they provide the town with a schedule so the road closures can be posted on the town’s website. Mr. James stated a schedule will be provided closer to the start of the construction season.
Town Attorney John Fenz commented on transfer of ownership of the land and stated since it is park land NYSDOT is looking for the federal designation de minimis impact. While the municipality holds title to the land, the state has the power to regulate what goes on in the park. Mr. Fenz requested a statement/declaration from the state level that the board does not need an act of legislature to alienate the property.
Linda Toy questioned if Harlem Road is being expanded to four lanes and also questioned plans for the bridge over Indian Church Road.
Mr. James responded there are no plans to expand Harlem Road at this time. The life of the bridge will be 50 to 75 years, so the area under it is being expanded in the event the road is widened in the future or sidewalks are added. Mr. James further stated there are no plans at this point to do anything with the bridge over Indian Church Road.
Motion by Supervisor Meegan, seconded by Councilman Hanley, to close the public hearing.

Architect James Wittmann represented Tim Kropovitch and stated his proposal for a 4500 sf automotive repair facility on the 1.24 acre parcel at 3254 Clinton Street. There will be three bays and parking for cars waiting to be serviced along with approximately ten cars for automotive sales.
Councilman Hart asked Mr. Kropovitch to consider changing the look of the building to a more consistent architectural scheme the town is moving toward. This will be addressed at site plan review, but Councilman Hart stated he and Code Enforcement Officer John Gullo are willing to meeting with Mr. Kropovitch.
Councilman Hanley agreed and commented the board members would like the town to look more presentable especially on busy thoroughfares. For example, they are doing away with cookie cutter buildings and would like to see iron fences instead of chain link.

Ayes: All Noes: None Motion Carried
Motion by Supervisor Meegan, seconded by Councilman Hart, to open the public hearing.
Ayes: All Noes: None Motion Carried
Town Attorney John Fenz explained that this proposal evolved from discussions between Code Enforcement Officer John Gullo and Councilman Hart as they looked at ways to have building facades along certain corridors of the town have a certain design quality. One of the tools the town can use to accomplish this is establishing tax incentives for industrial commercial properties pursuant to Section 485-b of the Real Property Tax Law. Any industrial commercial developer making improvements to properties will be eligible for a tax break. The responsibility of the Industrial and Commercial Incentive Board (ICIB) will be to limit the incentives to certain projects by making recommendations to the Town Board. The Town Board can then establish a policy for tax break incentives. The ICIB will consist of five members appointed by the Town Board and Mr. Fenz recommended the qualifications for the members be: knowledge of the assessment role, knowledge of what is assessable and knowledge of the designs the town is looking for.
Councilman Hart stated the town will advertise to fill these unpaid positions and suggested one member represent a citizen’s point of view even if they lack the listed qualifications.
Amy Carpenter questioned if businesses will receive tax incentives from the Erie County Industrial Development Agency (ECIDA) also. She further requested clarification of the eligible properties (i.e. main roads) and questioned if there are limited time periods.
Councilman Hart responded a business could receive tax incentives from the ECIDA also, but it would be for other reasons. The business could be located on any road.
Mr. Fenz clarified that the West Seneca tax incentive will be tied to improvements in real property and affect real property taxes and they are limited by statute to a 10 year period.
Motion by Supervisor Meegan, seconded by Councilman Hanley, to close the public hearing.

ISSUES OF THE PUBLIC
PROPERTY MAINTENANCE
Karen Lucachik commented on the unfinished siding on Schwabl’s Restaurant. Code Enforcement Officer John Gullo responded he has communicated with the owner and his insurance company and they did not receive the full claim from the insurance company. Also, they are limited to working on Sunday’s because of a shared driveway with another business so the work has been delayed, but they do intend to side the entire building.
SANITATION ISSUE
Karen Lucachik commented on a television set at the curb in front of 208 or 210 Dover Drive that is tagged but has been there for two months. Highway Supt. Matthew English responded he will have it picked up tomorrow.
PILOT PROGRAM WITH UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO
Karen Lucachik asked for clarification on the pilot program presentation from the February 8th Town Board work session. Councilman Hart and Youth Services Coordinator Lauren Masset explained the purpose of the project is to create an interactive online map that highlights locations in West Seneca. Professor Ryan from the University of Buffalo has grant money for this program and will work with members of the YES Program.
QUASAR
Amy Carpenter questioned if Quasar is still producing and if the town is responsible for anything if they go out of business. She further commented that Quasar is receiving federal aid and questioned how it will be paid back if they are not producing.
Councilman Hanley understood Quasar did not have an end user so he did not think they were doing anything at the West Seneca site. Code Enforcement Officer John Gullo advised the state will assist the town if Quasar goes out of business and there is any product in the silos. He further recommended Mrs. Carpenter contact her federal representatives concerning her question on federal aid.

ISSUES OF THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE HEALTH INSURANCE
Amy Carpenter questioned if the town charges premiums for employees that smoke. She further questioned if employees are allowed to smoke at work, noting she had witnessed a Highway Department employee smoking in a town vehicle.
Supervisor Meegan responded that premiums are not charged to employees that smoke and any change would have to be negotiated.
Highway Supt. Matthew English advised there is no smoking in town buildings.
UPDATE ON LIBRARY PROJECT
Amy Carpenter questioned if there will be public meetings on the library project.
Town Engineer Steven Tanner responded he would like to schedule a public information meeting for the library project on the evening of March 29th at the senior center, noting there is a meeting scheduled for the Comprehensive Plan on March 22nd and he would like the topics discussed separately. Mr. Tanner stated that multiple committees including the West Seneca Library, the veterans and town staff, have met with the architect to discuss what is needed inside the building, but not the outside appearance. At this point, the project is not ready to be put out to the public; however, it will be a collaborative process selecting the final look of the building. More exits will be required due to the addition; there will be a restricted employee entrance and convenience book drop off area added and additional maintenance workers will be required.
Councilman Hart reiterated that currently what is in front of the public are just proposals and nothing concrete has been set.
Mrs. Carpenter referred to the empty space where the Kiwanis building was located and questioned plans for future parking configurations.
Mr. Tanner explained that any permanent repaving will be done after the library construction is completed. For now the area will be leveled off and filled temporarily with millings/stones and utilized as a lay down area during construction of the project. The parking lots are eligible for use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) money and will be considered a separate project. Mr. Tanner further commented on the possibility of a “green” roof, but explained the drawbacks and noted that while grant money is available it does not cover the extra expense of the three ply roof with plantings and maintenance costs.
Councilman Hart suggested solar panels and questioned if grant money is available for them.
