ANTONIO TRIGO/JOSE RICARDO SUBDIVISION: Subdivision of 25.745 acres on County Route 6 into two parcels – Parcel A-15.244 and Parcel B-10.501. The applicants have a County Highway permit for driveway, deed descriptions for Parcels A & B, Health Dept approval for septic for single residence. Nancy Sperry asked if certified return receipts were received and they have been with the exception of one. Agricultural Data Statements were sent out to Cornelius Hegeman and Triple M Land Corporation. There is a deed restriction of only three houses on entire parcel. (Correction: Parcel A – One house, Parcel B – Two houses) There is nothing in the deed description to indicate this restriction. Robert Queirolo asked Andy Howard if it should be noted on map. Mr. Howard responded that it is not required to be but is sometimes better when a search is being done because it is easier to see. Robert Queirolo asked if we could have it noted on the map. The subdivision can be approved, surveyor can note deed restrictions on map, and return them and Chairman can stamp maps. It was also noted that the driveway on Parcel B was previously a farm road. There was no one present to speak for or against this proposal. A motion was made by Garret O'Connor, seconded by Thomas Jantzen to close the public hearing and return to the regular meeting. Chairman Saulpaugh reviewed the SEQRA form. Nancy Sperry motioned to declare a negative action, seconded by Clayton Andrus. All in favor. So carriedA motion was made by Clayton Andrus, seconded by Thomas Jantzen to accept this subdivision as presented with correction that the deed restriction be noted on the maps. Chairman can then stamp maps. All in favor. So carried. MEL AND PHYLLIS HEIKO: Mel and Phyllis Heiko have applied to the Zoning Board of Appeals for a special permit to add a kitchen to an existing accessory building. The board did a site visit on March 22nd. Chairman Saulpaugh would like our Attorney to review the Heikos deed, as there may be deed restrictions on this property. There have been other parcels of the former Steeneck property with deed restrictions. Mr. Heiko has reviewed deeds of all the subdivision plots, but Lot #2 and #3 are exempt. Andy Howard has researched some of the deeds in that area and it was involved. Some lots do not have deed restrictions. Mr. Heiko will get copies of his deed to Mr. Howard to review. The Heikos are going to ZBA application night on the 10th. CORRESPONDENCE: 1.

Dan Wheeler reported that he is reviewing the Subdivision Regulations, Highway Specs and Zoning Ordinance. He has gone before the Town board to report that there are many differences and irregularities between the three. Bonding, cul-de-sacs lengths are just a few. He will make recommendations from the Planning, Zoning, Building Inspector, and Highway Superintendent to the Town Board.
