OLD BUSINESS

Some discussion took place about the purchase of the garbage
transfer trailer during which Councilman Amlicke spoke as
liaison to the Sanitation Commission and stated that there
is an interested buyer for the old trailers, emphasized that
the new aluminum trailer will be cheaper in the long run
since it can haul more because it is lighter and does not
have the problem of the "pony motor." Both Mr. Altieri and
Councilman Amlicke advised Councilwoman Silverstone upon her
query that the new trailer is adaptable to the proposed new
transfer station. It was further noted by the Administrator
and Councilman Amlicke that the trailer is being purchased
from a company in the mid-west, that there will not be a

in the country use this type of trailer.

NOT ON AGENDA
In answer to Leonard_ Martin's question about an answer to the
Budget Committee's letter, Administrator Stephen Altieri advised
that a work session has to be scheduled relative to the Admin-
. istrator's report of the Budget Committee's letter.
When Mr. Martin asked when a police commission meeting would be
held, Deputy Supervisor Bloom stated that a public discussion is
forthcoming of the Police Department's Annual Report for 1982.
Several residents including Janet Demasi, Herbert Heimann,
Dr. Lawrence Lerman questioned the Board about the reinstatement
of a second youth officer and gave reasons why such a position
is needed. Deputy Supervisor Bloom explained that the matter
had come before this Board during 198a and the former Police
Commission, noting the concerns of this Board and those of the
community worked with the Chief in assessing the needs and decided
to go forth with one full-time youth officer. He further stated
the matter could be a part of the Police Chief's discussion and
Councilwoman Silverstone suggested that perhaps the Youth Officer,
Detective Leviness, could be at the meeting when the matter is
discussed.
NOT ON AGENDA - Marshall Kaplan-His Letter re Conflicting Affidavits
Following Mr. Kaplan's query about whether an investigation had been
made about the above noted matter, Deputy Supervisor Bloom advised
that Supervisor Goldsmith looked into the matter. He explained
that the Supervisor learned that an error was made when Mrs. Johnson
signed the affidavit relative to the filing of the Planning Board
minutes and that she had followed the practice of giving the
minutes to the Supervisor's Secretary, Mrs. Brewer, with the under-
standing that constituted "filing of the minutes." Mr. Bloom added
that a corrected affidavit will be submitted to the Court. When
Mr. Kaplan wished to pursue the matter further, he was advised by
both the Deputy Supervisor and Councilman McMillan, that since the
matter is part of pending litigation, this Board will not continue
to discuss the matter.
At this time, Dolores Battalia read her letter of April 20, 1983
on the subject of the affidavits and upon Deputy Supervisor Bloom's
statement to her that "we do not agree with you" and reiterated
why the matter will not be discussed, Councilwoman Silverstone
took exception to the Deputy Supervisor's general statement and
reference to "we" and asked that the record show that she
disassociates herself from the Deputy Supervisor's statement
since she does agree with some of Mrs. Battalia's statements.
NOT ON AGENDA - Janet Demasi re Hommocks Field
In answer to Mrs. Demasi's query, Councilman Amlicke reviewed
the matter and explained that the Town called the bond in September
of 1982 and the problems incurred by doing that; noted the work
done by Premium Landscaping which the Town is not completely
satisfied with; referred to the meetings that have been held with
Mr. Pound, representatives of Aetna Insurance and Town staff
during which it has been outlined what work has yet to be done
on the field and what conditions have not been complied with. He
further stated that is is the intention of this Board to stay
right on the top of the problem and make sure germination is
accomplished so that one, if not two fields can be ready for next
fall.

statement, a copy of which was presented to the Town Clerk
to be made a part of the record of this meeting. Mr. Klein
elaborated on the long standing serious raw sewage problem
and his neighbor, Thomas Hennessey, submitted photographs
illustrating the most recent surcharging. Deputy Supervisor
Bloom reviewed the Engineer's memorandum and noted that
requests already have been made to the County for funding
of the projects to correct the surcharging problem.
Councilwoman Silverstone stated that she will call County
Legislator Diane Keane and enlist her assistance, and
suggested that a County Health Inspector be called in, in
an attempt to bring more pressure on the County to correct
the health hazard condition. Councilman Amlicke asked if
suit can be brought against the County regarding this matter
and the Town Attorney was asked to look into it.
Other residents advising the Board of the surcharging and
raw sewage in their homes and the street were: Hannan Wexler
of 146 Valley Stream Road, Martin Lizt of 126 Valley Stream
