(3) The Deed given by the Town to Carl Root and wife (277 Deeds 277) also mistakenly, describes the road frontage conveyed as 1501 instead of only 50t (4) The conveyance by the Town to Root should have been made in compliance with Town Law gS 64 '(2) 82, 90 and 91, viz. subject to permissive referendum following the publication and posting of Notice, but no record has been found establishing that such notices were given.

Fuess, Clerk February 19, 1964 A special meeting of the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca was held at the Town Office, 132 Forest Home Drive on Wednesday, February 19, 1964 at 10:00 A.M. Board members present were : Supervisor Wm. B. Kerr, Councilmen Frank Bishop and Joseph N. Mayer. Also present were: Engineer B. K. Hough, Assessor A.J. Wells, Attorneys Roger Sovocool and Harry Hamilton, Otto Schoenfeld, Dr. Broad and G. Guest, J.C. Dunlap and W. J. Schwan. This meeting was held to hear a report from J. C. Dunlap of Lozier, Inc.&to discuss the formation of a sewer district in the northeast area of the town. Mr. Dunlap presented a map of the northeast area with sewer lines designated. Based on footage assessments and acreage assess- ments (figuring 1A as approx. 116 unit) and figuring the new school on a person basis of about 10 persons per unit, Mr. Dunlap felt the entire cost for the district might range from $60.-$80. per unit. Mr. Kerr feels the town has a general problem - that of pro- viding sewer service for the entire northeast area and a more immediate problem of providing a line to connect with the new northeast school by the time it opens. Mr. Rogers was present to represent the Village of Cayuga Heights. He feels that the town residents should assume some of the cost of the line besides paying the Village for use of Sewerage facilities. The present line is an 81, line. Mr. Schoenfeld who owns land adjacent to the school site asked the question whether or not the village could ask for more revenue to pay off a bonded district once the district is already formed? Mr. Kerr stated that the contract price should be all inclusive and that the figure should be pegged to a period of time equal to the period of time it takes to pay off the bond issue for the total district. Plus this charge each resident would pay a use charge. Mr. Rogers stated that he felt a new sewer district in the town should participate in the capital cost of the Village Sewer plant and should make a payment to the Village to help defray this cost. Mr. B. K. Hough, Engineer for the Town stated that whenever the town asks either the city or the village for services they are at the mercy of the city or village. He feels the main questions to be answered now are: 1) Is the Village plant capable now of taking care of the sewage from a new district and 2) Is the line of adequate size to serve the district and 3) What are the alternatives? He feels that alternatives are these: 1) The Town build its own sewerage disposal plant. 2) TheeTown join with the Village for the use of the Village plant. 3) The Town install a pumping station and use the City of Ithaca facilities 4) The Town join with the Town of Lansing in a sewerage disposal plant. Kerr - The importal2t question we need answered by the Village is this - How many units can the Village sewerage plant take and is the line of adequate size? 294 Rogers - I feel that I can now answer "Yes, the plant could handle the additional sewerage. An Engineers survey could easily check this and a hydraulic survey could check the capacity of the lines." Sovocool - The reason we asked Lozier to come back is to advise. Their advice should tell us who we hook up with for treatment and how much will it cost? Schoenfeld - My contract with the school calls for a sewer district and the date is set for August 1st for completion of the line. Can I form a sewer district involving only a school? Hamilton (for Mr. Schoenfeld) - Mr. Schoenfeld will not move toward putting in a line to the school unless a district is formed. Dunlap (for Lozier) 1) The price per unit for treatment (Estimated t72. from the Village) seems a little high compared to other villages in the state. 2) Other alternatives should be investigated also. Those alternatives could be the townt•. owning a treatment plant or joining with either Lansing, the Village or the City. Hough - I question whether the town can participate in the capital cost of the village system. Early decisions need to be made, but a complete study will take longer. Kerr - There is a need for an early decision because of the school and the decision concerning the school is important to the people in the northeast area in their decision whether or not to form a sewer district at this time. The Town could go ahead with their plans for a sewer district and build the line to the school. Schoenfeld - If the town is willing to build the line to the school could I waive the formation of a district and make a contract directly with the village to serve the line from the school? Kerr - A district can be formed by a motion of the Town Board subject to referendum of residents in the area. Before this is done we must have an answer from the Village to 2 questions. 1) How much sewerage can the plant take? 2) How much can the line take? We need a figure from the Village first - I also question whether or not the town can share in the capital cost. Dunlap (for Lozier) My firm can offer you four cost estimates as follows: 1) All to the Village - without expansion 2) All to City - without expansion 3) Going to Lansing (if figures can be obtained from C'Brien and Gere. 4) Town owning a treatment plant. Rogers - The Village will proceed with a survey to determine the capacity of the plant and also the interest in participating with the town in a district. Kerr - The town will ask Lozier to continue as sewer consultant and to do the necessary surveys. The charge of such survey will be assuided by the district when formed. Dr. Broad (for the Health Dept.) - The Town Ordinance now says that a hook-up to a sewer system must be made in a year. The Board of Health cannot designate the time. The residents of the northeast area feel that 10 years is a, more reasonable figure and the Health Dept. feels that the town would be safe in establishing a ruling of 10 years or when any system breaks down and all new construction hook up immediately. Kerr - Lozier can have a report back in about a month and then the board must decide which alternative to use. Meeting adjourned at 1:45 P.M.

Wells asked the Town Board to consider the possibility of revisitg Section 52 of the Zoning Ordinance. The matter was referred to the Planning Board for their consideration and recommendation. BUILDING PERMIT FEES Mr. Wells requested that the Board consider a change in the price charged for a building permit. The price is now $2.50 for a main building or extension and $1.00 for an Accessory Building. It was the sense of the Board that a higher fee (a set fee) that would cover the cost or more nearly cover the cost of the expense of the building inspector etc. would be better. The new schedule of fees as adopted by the City of Ithaca was dis- cussed and the Board decided to ask the Planning Board for their recommendation before reaching a final decision.

The long range interests of all residents in the north- east area of the town will be served best by utilizing city facilities. The short range interests of those persons -snot proposing to immediately avail themselves of sewer district facilities will be served best bylutilizing village facilities. Cost comparisons of village and city connections were given: Villa a Connection City Connection District charge 96Ub'J*�./.'/2 Municipal charge 75.00 29.76 Total $135 . W/ $11'/ .48 Excluding costs for new sewers in village, if any.

He stated that he feels Lansing will ask the town for cooperation and he feels that a plan including the towns of Lansing and Ithaca and the Village of Cayuga Heights would be most feasible. Councilman McElwee suggested that Supervisor Kerr ask the Village if their cost computation could be changed. The Board authorized Supervisor Kerr to ask the City whether or not they would accept sewage from the northeast area of the town and to ask the Village if they would consider figuring charges on the same basis as the City. The answer to the above questions would then go to the people in the northeast area for their consideration. RENWICK HEIGHTS ASSOC. PARK Ar.

The contract has previously been a set amount each year ($16,500. for 1963). In order to be able to budget the proper amount each year, the Supervisor will ask the city to use a formula using a two year interval. The Board authorized Mr. Kerr to tell the City that they will consider a contract based on such an agreement. The description of the area covered by such a contract was changed from election districts to read as follows: "All of the Town of Ithaca, excepting that portion which lies within the boundaries of the Village of Cayuga Heights, the hamlet of Forest Home and that portion of the town to the north of Forest Home between the east boundary of the Village of Cayuga Heights and the east boundary of the Town of Ithaca."

The reply from Controller Arthur Peterson indicated that the University feels they pay their share by contributing each time the fire department is called to the campus. Letters from the State Traffic Commission state that the requested speed zone on Five Mile Drive between the City line and Coy Glen Road has been denied and that the joint request of the towns of Dryden and Ithaca for a speed zone on Snyder Hill Road is now being considered. Mr. Kerr reported that he went to the Traffic Commission Office while in Albany recently and had assurances that the speed limit along the Slaterville Road will be restudied in June and that state officials will meet with area residents to discuss problems. 300 WARRANT Councilman Mayer made the motion that Bills #109 through #159 in the general fund in the amount totaling $4,418.04 and Bills #92 through #126 in the highway fund totaling $5,063.13 be paid.

The consensus of theBoard was that since the library was originally established by Ezra Cornellfor the benefit of the people in the County and since the Town has benefitted for many years that the Town Board go on record as favoring a new library and expressing willingness to work on -a cooperative basis to achieve the same and would hope that the City and County would participate in that support. Supervisor Kerr feels that the town needs to first know such specifies as plans, costs etc. before making definite decisions. He stressed that the town has and will continue to contri%ute to the operating costs of the library based on a cardholder prorata basis and that in the future those costs might also include amoritization costs. The Board did not express any interest in acquiring ownership or partial ownership of the library, but feels the Cornell Library Association should have complete freedom of operation, AGREEMENT FOR EXPENDITURES OF HIGHWAY MONEY The Board approved the 1964 agreement for the expenditure of Highway moneys pursuant to the provisions of Sect. 284 of the Highway Law as presented by Highway Superintendent Marion Morey. BOSTWICK ROAD PROPERTY The sense of the Board in regard to the use of the Bostwick Road, Five Mile Dr. area property for use for County Highway facilities is that they would have preferred that the County consider other possible l6cations for their building and that the. area in question be kept residential analagous with the Glenside area.

ENGINEER'S REPORT - WOOLF AREA - RENWICK AREA Engineer B.K. Hough was present to give the Board a report of his study of two problems now existant in the Town. The first problem concerns a drainage problem on the Woolf property off Route 96. Mr. Hough said the drainage problems exist because excess water draining through a box culvert on route 96 now washes across property of nearby owners and causes damage. Old tile drains have been disturbed during the development of the area and Mr. Hough feels that it is Mrs. Woolf's responsibility to correct the problem. He stated that the apparent solution would be a mutual agreement with the owners to pick out a swale and convey water along lot lines to a ditch. The Board will send Mr. Hough's recommendations concerning this problem to the Planning Board. Councilman McElwee suggested that in the future the Planning Board ask the Town Engineer to look over sub -division plans before they are finally approved to avoid possible problems. The second problem Mr. Hough reported on was water seepage along East Shore Drive near Renwick Drive. He stated that the responsibility for correcting this is the Schooley Construction Co., who constructed the Renwick Heights Sewer. REPORT FROM HEALTH DEPARTMENT Mr. Frank Liguori of the Tompkins County Health Dept. was present to explain to the Board the rules and regulations recently drawn up for the use of individual sewage systems and water supplies where public facilities are not available.

SYMPATHY EXTENDED TO MAYOR HUNNA JOHNS The Town Board asked the Superviosr to write to Mayor Hunna Johns in their behalf to extend sympathy to him in the death of Mrs. Johns. EXTENSION OF TRUMANSBURG ROAD WATER DISTRICT Supervisor Kerr explained that there are two ways a district may be established or extended; by Detition of the property owners or by establishment subject to referendum. The first question a property owner asks is "How much will it cost?" An Engineer's study of the area would help to answer that question of cost. After the study is completed, the Town could mandate the whole area as a district and hold a public hearing. If there were areas that did not desire to be within the district they could be taken out at that time. Mr. Kerr felt that the information gained from the study should be mailed to each property owner before the public hearing is held. The question was asked whether or not a sewer line could be laid at the some time water lines are put in. Yr. Kerr said that it isn't always cheapest to do both at one time, but the study could include both districts. The residents along Bundy Road have filed a petition for an extension of the water district, and Mr. VanEpps has indicated an interest in both water and sewer to his property off the Duboise Rd. The Board is in favor of a study to include all of the property from there to the Ulysses town line. Supervisor Kerr was authorized by the Board to contact Lozier, Inc. to proceed with such a study. CLOVFR LANE SEWER DISTRICT Residents of the Clover Lane area were present to express to the Board their interest in the formation of a sewer district. A basic study of a sewer district for that area was completed by Lozier in 1961 and the sense of the Board is that the study should be brought up to date at this time. Some of the residents of the area are interested in a district to include only Clover Lane. Mr. Prince who plans a development in the area and Mr. Ideman 222 432 on Judd Falls Rd. have also expressed an interest in extension of services. Councilman McElwee offered the following resolution and moved its, -adoption: RESOLVED, that Lozier t s Inc. of Rochester, N.Y:, be contacted`/ to report on the cost and feasibility of : (to do a Sanitary Sewer 1) Clover Lane district alone Study and) 2) Clover Lane and Prince properties (Ellis Hol�o�r 3) Both of above and the extension on Mitchell St A to J1 include P&C, NYABC, and Ideman's. Seconded by Supervisor Kerr Ayes - Mayer, Baker, Kerr, McElwee, Bishop Noes - 0 Carried. NORTHEAST SEWER DISTRICT The town is awaiting final approval from the State before continuing with the northeast sewer district. Mrs. Elinor Smith was present and questioned where the sewer would be to serve those residents on the lower side of Christopher Circle. Mr. Kerr replied that the final Engineering plans were not complete, bit that every area would be severed. SIDEWALKS - NORTHEAST AREA Pars. Smith told the board of one area's solution to the problem of children walking along main thoroughfares to and from school. Near Washington, D. C. they have used successfully a series of flashing red lights to outline areas where children were walking and reduce speeds in those areas to 15mph. The lights are only activated during those periods of the day when the children are walking along the road. Some of the members of the Board felt this might not serve the child who might have stayed at school for an activity and also questioned who would install and control the signs. Supervisor Kerr stressed the importance of a decision about sidewalks before the new northeast school opens. The school district has been informed by the state that they cannot build the sidewalks. Mr. Kerr said a sidewalk district could be formed embracing the areas approximately within the Hanshaw Ed. sewer district and the new Northeast sewer district. The Board authorized the Town Engineer, B.K. Hough to proceed with a study that would give a cost estimate of gravel paths and/or blacktop walks or cement walks on portions of Warren and Hanshaw Ads. and to accomodate children who will walk from the Muriel St. and Kay St. areas. Mr. Hough appeared at this time and the board instructed - him to proceed with the above request. HIGHWAY TRUCK Mr. Morey reported that an estimate of $1.500. had been submitted to fix the old Brockway truck. Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLVED, that Superintendent of Highways Marion Morey be authorized to draw up specifications (with the assistance of Engineer B.K. Hough) for a new truck equipped with plow and hydraulic equipment and advertize for bids for same. Seconded by Councilman Mayer Ayes - Baker, Bishop, McElwee, Kerr and Mayer Noes - 0 Carried. WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION Supervisor Kerr reported that the amount to be paid by the Town of Ithaca to the County for Workmen's Compensation for the next year will be increased to 96,150. The board questioned whether this amount based on assessed valuation is legal. WARRANT Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLVED, that Highway Bills #233 of $3860.03 and General Fund Bills #270 amount of $3572,30 be paid. Seconded by Councilman Bishop Ayes - Kerr, Bishop, Baker, Mayer Noes - 0 Carried. through #258 in the amount through #297 in the and McElwee T89 233 WATER CONTRACTS Supervisor Kerr has received copies of the new water contracts with the City of Ithaca.

LOZIER REPORT - CLOVER LANE AREA Mr. James Dunlap of Lozier, Inc. was present to report to the Board on the study of sanitary sewers in the Clover Lane - Judd Falls area of the town. Three different4-districts were considered: (1) The district to include Clover Lane and Mitchell St. (the Ellis Hollow Rd.) between the city line and the railroad. Estimated cost of this system including a rock contingency is $21,000.; without rock $17,000. (2) District two would include all of the area of District one and extend the system to include the NYABC and P&C and Ideman's. The estimated cost of this system is $90,000. including a rock contingency and $70,000. without rock. (3) District three would encompass all undeveloped private lands in the area. Since there is no apparent advantage in this district no cost estimates were made. 234 The firs y ar unit o to t th resid. nts f the Clov r Lane area would a less iistr�et were ormed because of the greater area being benefitted. Lozier's recommendation to the Board is that the District 2 plan be followed. More detailed plFns and estimates will be prepared in time for the next meeting. The Board expects that the district will be mandated, subject to permissive referendum. LOZIER REPORT (cont.) Mr. Dunlap reported that the Trumensburg Road area is still under study and no report is ready at this time. The Town Board authorized Mr. Dunlap to have his firm proceed with studies for water and sewer extensions in that portion of South Hill and the Elmira Road areas not now served. ORDER ESTABLISHING NORTHEAST SEWFR DISTRICT Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLVED, that the Northeast Sewer District be established as per the order now on file.

TOWN OFFICE IN CITY Supervisor Kerr stated that there were many apparent ad- vantages to having town offices in the city of Ithaca. First of all, more room is needed, especially for meetings. An office in the city would be more centrally located for all residents of the town. The City of Ithaca has recently purchased the N.Y. State Electric and Gas.Corp. buildings on Cayuga and Green Sts. and has indicated a willingness to rent space to the town. If this could be accomplished the town might be able to rent enough space for the Supervisor, Town Clerk and Assessor's offices and obtain the right to use other rooms for meetings and Justices courts. Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLVED, that pursuant to Bills A.I. 4031, Pr. 4162 and S.I. 2953, Pr. 3171 which entitled the Town Board, upon resolution duly adopted by it, to establish and maintain in the City of Ithaca an office or offices for the conduct of the town's business and the town board, the town supervisor, the town clerk, the town superintendent of highways, the town assessor, the planning board, the zoning board of appeals and any other officer, official board, commission, committee or agency of the town of Ithaca, to hold meetings and hearings and to perform their official acts and functions for such town in the city of Ithaca and to authorize any justice of the peace of the town to hold justice court, a court of special sessions or magistrates court and perform any official act within his jurisdiction in the city of Ithaca, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Supervisor of the town Is hereby authorized to carry on negotiations for obtaining such office space and to negotiate a contract or least which may be needed to establish same.

Mr. Hough presented a map showing sidewalks along the north side of Hanshaw Road 236 Lozier's are now working on contract drawings and specifications and within a few weeks will be ready for approval from the State Health Dep't. The Town Board gave permission and approval to Lozier to hire the American Drilling Co., for Rock probings.

Hough was present to give the Board a report on preliminary studies of sidewalks in the Northeast area of the town. The residents of the area have expressed fear over the safety of children who will be walking along main highways to reach the new NE school when it opens. Mr. Hough presented a map showing sidewalks along the north side of Hanshaw Road 237 between Warren Rd. and Salem Dr. and Warren Rd. and Blackstone Ave. Also a sidewalk along the ;retest side of Warren Rd. and connecting walks from Muriel St. to Warren Rd., Tareyton Rd. to Muriel, Kay St. to Christopher Circle and from Christopher Circle to the school. Mrs. Smith, speaking for the residents in the area suggested that walkways might be deleted from the plans and emphasis be put on walks along the main thoroughfares. Mr. Hough estimated costs of 9,000 lineal feet of walk at about $37,000. for concrete walks, $23,000. for blacktop walks, or $16,700. for gravel walks. Mrs. Smith asked whether or not it might be possible to obtain land from Cornell University for a road connecting from Muriel Street to Warren Road. No action was taken at this time until more consideration could be given the locations of sewers as proposed by Lozier's. Wherever possible the same rights of way might be used. After the facts are all obtained a district could be mandated subject to referendum. HOMESTEAD SANITARY SEWER DISTRICT Attorney Enos A. Pyle, representing Eastwood of Ithaca, Inc. was present to request a public hearing for the formation of a sewer district in a development of about 10 acres at the top of Homestead Road. Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: WHEREAS, a written petition dated August 18, 1964, has been presented to and filed with the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca, praying that all the land situate in the Town of Ithaca, County of Tompkins and State of New York, and more particularly bounded and described as follows: ALL THAT TRACT OR PARCEL OF LAND situate in the Town of Ithaca, County of Tompkins and State of New York, bounded and described as follows: beginning ah the north line of the farm previously owned by Jasper Hanford at a point 143 feet east of the east line of Homestead Terrace, running thence east and along the north line of the Jasper Hanford farm 602 feet to land of Cornell University; running thence north along the west line of Cornell University 513.4 feet to a pipe; running thence west and along the south line of premises of James W. and Ethel B.

Engineer B.K. Hough was authorized to look over the agreements with Mr. Lucente and investigate existing problems in the area. 238 WATER CONTRACTS The City returned the water dontracts with the different districts in the town for approval and signature. The new contracts did not specify a price for water, but stated that bills would be computed at the rate as the same is from time to time determined by the Board of Public Works of the City of Ithaca. The sense of the Board was that the districts in the town should receive the same consideration as the Village of Cayuga Heights who recently signed a twenty year contract stating a price of one and one-half times the rate of city users. Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLVED, that the Supervisor be authorized to sign the contracts after they are corrected to read as follows: "The Town hereby agrees to pay to the City for water furnished under this contract the total of all bills rendered to consumers for metered water, which bills shall be computed at the rate as the same is from time to time determined by the Board of Public Works of the City of Ithaca, provided that the rate shall at no time exceed one and one-helf times the rate payable by water users in the City of Ithaca."

Hough was present to give a report of his study of sidewalks in the area of the new northeast school. Mr. Hough pointed out to the board and to the residents of the area present that land acquisition for sidewalks would mean that a complete survey, Engineering study and legal description of each property would need to be completed before land is acquired and construction begun. This means that in addition to cost estimates given previously there should be added to costs of survey which might run from $5,000. to $10,000. and the costs of legal aid which could run another $5,000. to $10;000. To have sidewalks built before the school opens is an impossibility, and to use sewer rights -of -way In the sewer district now being formed does not seem plausible at this time. Mr. Walter Schwan of the the Northeast Civic Assn. was present and expressed his belief that sidewalks may not even be needed in the area; that they certainly should not be built before sewers are installed, but agreed that a study to determine costs and locations could be undertaken meanwhile. 240, Dr. Brampton, representing the NE school PTA safety committee feels that a sidewalk district should be established and that many children will prefer to walk to school even if bus service is provided. Mr. Kerr reviewed the procedure for formation of a district and estimated the complete cost could run from $50,000. to $100,000. The Board felt that the first step should be a study to show areas and plans. Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLVED, that with reference to the Northeast area of the Town of Ithaca, the Town Board appropriate a sum not to exceed 4500. for Lozier, Inc. to prepare a general map, plan and report for providing sidewalks in said area; such map, plan and report to show outside area of the district, streets and the location of sidewalks along those streets, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town Clerk publish and post a copy of above resolution subject to permissive referendum as required by law.

GLENSIDE LIGHT DISTRICT The NY State Electric and Gas Corp. investigated a request by the people of Glenside Lighting District and estimated that a total of 9 lights would cost 1267.08. (Four additional lights - 2500 lumen units plus circuit) It is recommended that the 2500 lumen lights be replaced by 7000 Mercury units at an additional cost of $225. One of the larger lights will be installed and then the members of the light district will decide if they want them or not. An additional amount for new lights was not included in the budget this year, but it was the sense of the board that the money could be borrowed if needed to finance the addition to the Glenside Lighting District. SEWER - GOLDSMITH NURSING HOME A. -letter from the Sup't. of Public Works F.J.

Also recommended was a budget of $3,000. a year for 10 years for acquisition and development of 5 parks of about 2 acres each. The Town Board has previously accepted the study, but the budget for 1965 has no money designated for park develop- ment. The sense of the Board is that each developer should be encouraged to include pa#k sites in sub -division plans. OFFICE SPACE 'Councilman McElwee suggested that Yr. Kerr negotiate with the City of Ithaca to lease all of the office space on the 3rd floor of the Gas & Electric building, so that one room may be reserved for meetings. Mr. Kerr said that arrangements had been made to pay the City an additional amount each year for the use of office space to be available for use by the Justices of the Peace, but that he understood the other office had been designated for use by the Yough Coordinator.

EAST STATE STREET WATER DISTRICT Mr. John Marion of the East State Street Water District Committee was present to ask the Board to spell out the duties of a water district committee. He asked if the Board would delegate duties of the committee and perhaps use them more each year when the special district budgets and assessment rolls are being completed. He also asked what the understanding of the board is concerning the expense of each water user's hook-up to the line. He understood that each owner paid to the middle of the road and not necessarily the entire distance across the road to connect with the main line. Mr. McElwee stated that he remembered that this decision had been left up to the committee prevtbualy. ADJOURNMENT Councilman Mayer made the motion for adjournment at 6:00 P.N.

Sup't. of Highways Morey said that he felt the road was not in proper condition to be accepted. Supervisor Kerr felt that the Town is now obligated to accept the road since they now must plow it and since building permits for houses now under construction have already been issued. Supervisor Kerr offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLVED, that the Town of Ithaca accept Winthrop Drive from Warren Road to the new northeast school with the following qualifications: 1) That the road be put in satisfactory condition by the developer, Otto B. Schoenfeld by June 1, 1965 2) That between now and June 1, 1965, upon notification by H'way Sup't. Marion Morey, 'Nr.
