Motion Carried Motion: Councilman Dolegowski moved, seconded by Councilman Nolan to authorize the Supervisor/Town Board to sign the required documents for the LOSAP program. Motion Carried. Report of Town Officials Bill Blarr from the Marilla Fire Company stated they had 14 people make LOSAP points for last year. There is a form that the Town Board needs to sign and the Supervisor needs to sign a separate form. Open Board Presentations A member from the Marilla Historical Society stated that they are unable to accept the $250,000 from the town at this time as they want to get an agreement in place with the town so the Board of Trustees can see it. Supervisor Gingerich Jr. stated what you do with the funds is up to you, if you decide to move forward with a building the town will need to know that so that an agreement can be drawn up at that time. The town cannot draft an agreement until we know that you are moving forward with the building, as the town can’t have any involvement. What you decide to do with the funds is 100% up to you.

A member of the Marilla Historical Society stated they are not set up for that right now, that they would have to set up an account for the funds and someone in charge of it. Supervisor Gingerich Jr. stated that the Town is basically reimbursing the Historical Society for the loss of the venue. My understanding you need a Variance, if you move forward with the Variance that shows the Town you are moving forward with the building in which the Town can draft up an agreement. The town cannot draft up an agreement before you start the process of the building. Proof has to be shown that you are using the money for the building. Marilla Historical member stated they need to know what the Town is going to do. We are worried about having to pay for the gas, electricity, etc. Supervisor Gingerich Jr. stated that the town will take care of the upkeep of the grounds, The utilities and maintenance of the building we can’t have anything to do with it. The money the town pays for the current storage facility can go to the Historical Society and the $3,000 that the town currently gives the Historical Society you can use to pay for anything that you wish to. A member of Marilla Historical Society stated again that they are worried that they won’t be able to pay for anything. Councilman Nolan stated that any organization that asks for money you must prove why you need the money. Councilman Reichert stated the 250th Anniversary Celebration is pretty much laid out. Highway Superintendent Ron Unverdorban Jr. and Councilman Reichert have been working behind the
