Supervisor Gambino stated that the next item were 2 resolutions from the Town Attorney that she had
received earlier in the day and that both were in regards to the proposed Battery Energy Storage project
that has been applied for on Genesee Rd. She noted that the first one was to approve changes made to
the Escrow Agreement that the Town had approved to be sent to the applicant last month. She noted that
the escrow funds pay for cost of professional services that the Town hires to work on the Towns behalf for
review of the project. Supervisor Gambino stated that the second resolution was to accept one of the two
submitted engineering proposals and appoint that firm to review the proposed battery energy storage
