Board got to RIC Energy. He informed Mr. Sorgi that the Board was not going to be in a
position to vote on the RIC Energy matter this evening because they still have some
things to go over together, and they are open to having a Special Meeting if need be. Mr.
Sorgi asked what still needs to be discussed, and if there is any information that the
Board needs from him. Town Attorney Attea told him nothing is needed from him at this
time, and he will let Mr. Sorgi know if anything is needed later. The Board has a few
more things to review with Caleb Henning from MDA. Mr. Sorgi asked when a Special
Meeting will be held, and Town Attorney Attea will give him a date if one is set. Mr.
Sorgi informed the Board that timing wise they are months past the time for legal
requirement for a vote. Supervisor Drozd responded that he just received the figures for
the Host Agreement last Wednesday. Mr. Sorgi asked if there was going to be any
further discussion about his project this evening, and Supervisor Drozd told him no.

ITEM #3  RESIDENT CONCERNS

  Supervisor Drozd opened the floor for Public Comment. Stan Grabowski, from 4
Kissing Bridge Lane, is looking for any update on when the water main project will begin
and end. Caleb Henning let him know that the contractor is planning on starting the first
week in May. The contractor has another job that he is scheduled to begin working on in
July, and he wants to be finished with the water main project before then. Mr. Grabowski
asked if there was anything else needed from Kissing Bridge-Mr. Henning stated that he
has been in contact with Rhett McNulty from KB and there is nothing needed at this time.
Mr. Grabowski said that the contractor had originally written out and marked a line that
cut across his lot, and he heard that the contractor had been given permission by the
Town to move over off of his property and run it down the road. He questioned if Mr.
Henning had gone to the property and approved the move-Mr. Henning answered no.
Mr. Grabowski also informed the Board that his two properties have now been combined
into one. Mr. Henning said that there has been some discussion about sending out a
notice to the property owners, since there is some responsibility that the owners will have
to connect to the service line. The Town’s contractor is not going to run a line into the
houses. Mr. Henning and Mr. Grabowski then discussed the size of the trench needed,
the ditch work, and if there was going to be someone from the Town checking regularly
on the project-yes. Mr. Grabowski is going to be on site for the duration of the project,
and he would like to make sure that if there is going to be equipment on his property that
everything is all set with insurance, etc. Supervisor Drozd and Mr. Grabowski discussed
contractors for the work the homeowners need to do themselves for this project, and in
the letter that will go out to the homeowners Supervisor Drozd will list six to eight local
contractors that can do this type of work.

  Carolyn Robinson thanked the Town for the retirement luncheon that was given
for her last month. Supervisor Drozd and the Board thanked her for her service and for
all of the help that she has given to the current DCO.

  Vincent Roberts from the Springville Bombers spoke about getting ready for the
baseball and softball season. He stated that the club wants to do their part to help with
the baseball fields.
