road/driveway blockages and garbage dumping. We continue to work with the building department on
those issues. Assisted by the Ulster County Mobile Mental Health Unit we relocated a homeless individual
to a safer location and confirmed he was receiving the help he needed. We rescued two dogs that were
running free on Mettacahonts road. The owner was located and they were escorted home safely. At the
“Deep Hole” swimming hole we had several helpful folks assist us with locating the drivers of many cars
parked on the adjacent roadway. Several times, on different days the parking alongside the area has
become extremely crowded with vehicles parked unsafely along the roadway and in the Fire department
draft area. Neighbor to neighbor complaints have increased this month and all have been defused
without further action necessary.

TOWN BOARD MEMBER TIME:

Councilman Coleman: I am against adding public comment to workshop meetings, workshop is for work and I understand people want to be part of the process but public comment should be at the monthly meeting.

PUBLIC COMMENT:

Bea Haugen-Depuy: if workshop meetings were for workshop and not for voting for the the public needs to know and may have some input on then I would believe that is true. But you do much more than your workshop meetings. You’re voting! For example you have Mike Baden as project manager for the bridge and my point is if you’re not making decisions and those meetings I would say yes no comment would be necessary but you are making decisions that’s why I feel there should be public comments at these meetings. Bridge on Boice Mill at conmpletion I think the bridge should be named: “ Dunn Falls Bridge” in memory of Herman “ Stubby” Dunn.
ZBA & Planning Board: why isn’t any of the Board members asking members on those boards before new chairs are put on and why aren’t their any vice chairs anymore? You took it upon yourself. The ZBA should be naming their Chair and Planning Board should be naming their chair themselves not the Town Board,unless the law has changed.

Richard Demorest: the sign for the deep hole is missing. I support the naming of the BoiceMill road bridge the Dunn Falls Bridge.

Hoppy Quick: I just started to come out of the woods to come to these meetings and Mr. Coleman took time to explain assessment to me and I am grateful for that so thank you. Any chance we could have a random Q &A session night?

• Councilwoman Smiseth left at 8:28pm.
