RESOLVED, that upon the recommendation of the Department of Environmental Management and Engineering and its Commissioner, the Town Board approves the demolition work of the existing decommissioned Salisbury Pump Station with the costs for the demolition shared by the Village of South Nyack and the Town of Orangetown as per the attached Memorandum of Understanding between the Town and the Village of South Nyack.  The Town of Orangetown’s share of the cost is $34,600.00 and charged to Account No. G.8120.200.
