A special meeting of the
Village Board of Trustees was held Nov. 7, 2005, 5:00 PM, in the Village Hall,
260 Main St.
Mayor Bradley Winslow called
the meeting to order.
Present: Trustees Denno,

was excused.
Also Present: Treas. Fuller,
Clerk Estill, Acct. Clerk Colson, Supt. Lozier, Atty. Avigdor, Chief Kelley,
and two members of the public: Ingrid Koch and Jim Murray.
The in-ground gas/diesel tanks
at the DPW building has been cited by EPA inspector Frank Spina for failing to
have the proper leak detection system in place to meet code standards. The Village has been fined $450: $300 for
failure to provide adequate release detection methods and $150 for failure to
have a corrosion survey done once every three years. The Village could accrue more fines if the proper systems are not
in place within 30 days. Supt. Lozier
has been in contact with Valley Equipment for a quote on a system similar to
what the new firehouse has. Jim Murray
offered suggestions of companies that provide similar equipment for Supt.
Lozier to contact. As this is a time
sensitive issue, Supt. Lozier will see how many quotes he can gather before the
Board holds another special meeting on Thursday Nov. 10th at 5:00 PM.
