Councilwoman O'Flinn reported that at a recent CAC meeting, residents
of Locust Ridge expressed their concern that the parcel the Town had
put up for sale was adjacent to the Leatherstocking Trails. She made
note that when this parcel had been prepared for sale as surplus,
there was no mention of its being adjacent to the Trails, nor were the
Trails even indicated on the map. She explained this oversight to the
residents, that the auction sale was put off, and,that the CAC was
asked to visit the property to see exactly where it is situated and to
make a recommendation. Councilwoman O'Flinn stated that the CAC is
concerned that perhaps they should, as a procedure, be reviewing
future properties before the Town Board declares them as surplus.

councilwoman O,Flinn and Councilman Ryan.to work with Town Counsel in
developing a procedure to follow. This item was tabled until such
