Announcements
In January there will be a Sparkill Downtown Meeting regarding the commuter lot.
Town Clerk will continue to hold satellite hours at the Pearl River Library on 1/8th and 1/9th. A revised contract with Stearns & Wheler will be ready in January for the Tier II/III pumping stations.
Benno Van Noort, chairman of Orangetown’s Environmental Committee, gave a summary report for the committee. They requested an experienced person in non-toxic ground, lawn and field maintenance be among the qualifications for the position of Superintendent of Parks and Recreation.
Donald Brenner, attorney for STEJ, Liam McDevitt, STEJ’s project manager and Gerald Merola, Chief Financial Officer of Amusement Entertainment Management, LLC, gave a presentation of STEJ’s revised proposal for a sports and entertainment complex. Mr. Brenner said STEJ has already invested about $8.2 million. The new plan is for an indoor aquatic center, with a “lazy river”, an obstacle course, water slides, water aerobics, surfing and rafting; an ice rink and a bowling center with a lounge, psychedelic lighting and video screens. In addition, there are plans for teen and senior centers, space for basketball leagues, fast-food restaurants and team competitions. In response to concerns, Mr. Merola, said Orangetown residents will be given preferred pricing, the aquatic pavilion water is 100 percent recyclable, and cost effective measures will be taken to optimize energy savings. He believes one ice rink is sufficient without endangering the economic viability of the facility. Groundbreaking will not be before the spring of 2010 and it will take at least 18 months to complete.
Public Comment
Esta Baitler, Sparkill, asked if the repairs for the sewer odors could be done sooner.
Michael Mandel, Pearl River, is against the elected officials reducing their health care contributions.
Gail Raffaele, Tappan, feels STEJ’s presentation should have been done at a totally separate meeting. She was incorrectly quoted in minutes and she wants them corrected. She asked why the Town Board continues to amend resolutions that were superseded by an agreement. She questioned the Executive Assistant to the Supervisor position because they is no such position.
Eileen Larkin, Palisades, objects to the change regarding health insurance premiums for elected officials. She asked for the salaries of the Police Chief, Captain and Administrative Lieutenant and she said the Town Board should demand this information.
Andrew Wiley, Pearl River, said the Town Board can take legal action to put a moratorium on Clarkstown and Ramapo for their sewage. He Foiled for the Police contracts and salaries which he didn’t receive. He asked if Stacey Contracting was paid before the amended resolution. He believes Stearns and Wheler should be sued for their mistakes and he spoke about Siemans being fined by Germany and the US for $1.34 billion.

Public portion:
Gail Raffaele, Tappan, pointed out that the public hearing did not start at the noticed time.
Eileen Larkin, Palisades, had hoped a representative from Vision-Sciences was at the meeting to answer questions. She asked who oversees this company as to whether or not they are in total agreement with the Empire Zone’s requirements. Orangetown has well educated people and companies should be flocking to Orangetown to employ our people. We should not have to give away our community to bring them into Orangetown.
Andrew Wiley, Pearl River, concurred with Eileen Larkin as to who’s job is it to verify with the REDC. He asked if this company doesn’t live up to their end of the bargain, will this Town Board authorize them to move out again and require them to repay the state for the abatements.
John S. Edwards, Town Attorney, gave some background information from the Rockland Economic Development Corporation (REDC). Vision-Sciences is designed to manufacture endoscopes and sheets. Currently operates with 60 employees here in Orangetown and another facility in Massachusetts with 35 employees. At this time they are launching a new product, a video base flexible endoscopes that will substantially increase production demands. They plan to consolidate the Massachusetts facility with the one in Orangetown.
