APPROVAL OF MINUTES
The minutes of the Special Meeting of January 24,
1967, the Regular Meeting of February 8, 1967, and
the Special Meeting of February 20, 1967 were pre-
sented and on motion duly made and seconded, approved
as corrected.
OLD BUSINESS
Mr. Widulski presented the Board with a map of Old
White Plains Road showing the curves in the vicinity
of Saxon Woods Park, the realignment of which had
been recommended by the Raymond and May Report. In
In any reconstruction of the road the Town would
have to bear the expense of the project which would
probably be about $60,000. There is considerable
rock in the realigned portion.
It was decided to withhold further discussion of
the project until the next meeting when there would
be a full Board.
LAUREL AVENUE
Mr. Hunter Meighan appeared before the Board, repre-
senting Mr. Carducci, who is interested in purchas-
ing property on Laurel Avenue. Mr. Meighan had a
copy of a further title search in which he claims
they have not still been able to obtain clear title
to the entire road. Mr. Meighan said his client
would be willing to take the risk of paving the
street on the southerly side of Laurel Avenue, and
that the street could be maintained as a private
street.
r �
Mr. Widulski pointed out that there was a piece of
surplus county-owned property adjoining the thruway
that Mr. Carducci might possibly purchase allowing
a possible dedication of a full 50' street.
After further discussion the Board decided that it
would not be desirable to have land that could not
be used effectively but that they would check with
Mr. Johnston as to the feasibility of accepting a
25 foot street and explore the possibility of clear-
ing the title to the full road bed.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business to come before this
meeting it was adjourned at 9:00 p.m.
