VISITORSNorman Burris of 247 S. Main Street:1. Asked for a silent prayer for Frank Galfo, Jr. of the Village DPW Dept.2. He is a tormented and aggravated citizen due to the noise from Goya. Mr. Burris read from the Code Book regardingnoise. The company that plows for Goya wakes him up at 5 a.m. There are no employee cars or deliveries until 7:30 andthe plowing only takes about 40 minutes. Can't they start later?3. The railroad underpass has a lot of dangerous iee hanging over the street/sidewalk. Canthc Board do something aboutthis?4. Sidewalks need plowing on South Main under the viaduct also. This will prevent accidents. Realize that the DPW isshort-handed but need to move the snow to allow people to walk safely.5. Blue lights at Goya are still an issue. Was told by Code Enforcement Officer that they would go down after darkduring the winter when it got dark earlier to check things out. Has not done so yet.Ron McPeek of The Town Crier, North Main Street:1. Regarding Taste of Evans, wondered if there is any news yet as to bringing it into the village?2. Will soon be receiving an Econontic Development Loan from the Town of Evans and will be finishing up the repairsto his building.3. He is planuing onmakiug an offer on "Jammers Pub" and intends to open an up-scale restaurant with wine and beer tostart. It will not be a "bar"; limited hours, not an all night place. Possible live music on weekends consisting of a pianoand singer. Would also like to expand to have banquet facilities to hold 225-250 people. Needs to know if the Boardwould have any problems with his plans. Noted that there are approximately 125 parking spaces available in the area;wondered if that would be a problem. Name of the restaurant would be "Write side of the Tracks" with the bar areadecorated with a newspaper motif and the restaurant with railroad memorabilia.Wonld like input from the board and anyone else that might have some good ideas.4. Wondered if the Board was going to make The Town Crier their official paper during reorganization.Timothy Dybdahl, 94 Orchard Avenue:1. Any progress concerning the rezoning requested for 129 Commercial Street? Spoke to Code Enforcement and wastold that according to the Mayor everything was OK.Mayor slated that at the previous Board Meeting a motion was made and carried that the Master Plans intent was torezone that area a "mixed use" zone along with North Main Street from Orchard Avenue. A Fee Schedule will beapproved tonight and then the issue will go before the Planning Board. We are going about this in the proper mannereven though it takes time.Mr. Dybdahl continued back and forth with the Board and handed Attorney Yusick a copy of old minutes stating that hewas given a variance back in the early 90's for used cars.Attorney Andrew Yusick agreed that he was given a variance in ' 91 due to the fact that the property was used forcommercial purposes for the past 20 years but that does not mean that it was legally zoned commercial. That is what theboard is working on doing now in a legal fashion.

DEPARTMENT BEAD, COMMITTEE REPORTSMAYOR CARLSON1. Will be atiending the NYCOM Winter Legislative Meeting to find out what lobbying is going on and has meetings setup with Assemblyman Dick Smith and Senator Dale Volker.2. Referencing the article in the Bnffalo News on February 16th he noted many inconsistencies and irregularities in thearticle. The Village does share many services with the Town of Evans and the Village also completed a study for policeconsolidation and the outcome was against doing so. The same happened when we did a comparison study combininggarbage/recycling with the Town - and it was not to our advantage. Village residents receive a number of perks by livingin the Village. We are rebuilding the Village through grants that we could not get if we were a Town. In the pastseventeen years the average taxes have gone up is 7% a year. Lancaster this year is going up 97% after consolidation!3. Received a nice thank you from the Explorers for their dinners.4. Some residents have received letters from Paul Pinto because they have complained about the petition to the VillageBoard. If there are any questions, call us. NOTE: Williamsville, Aurora and Hamburg are not doing any stndies forconsolidation as stated by Mr. Pinto. Be careful what you sign.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES:MOTION Trustee Houston, seconded Trustee Atti to approve the minutes of the March 1, 2004 meeting as snbmitted.UNANIMOUSLY CARRIED

VISITORS1. Norman Burris, 247 S. Main Street - spoke directly to the Trustees regarding the on-going problems with the noiseand lighting problems at Goya. Someone needs to step up to the plate, come to his house to see and hear the problems hisfamily has to deal with. No response over time from the Mayor or Police Chief. Ample parking on south side of lot - thiswould help Witll the noise of ghetto blasters etc. Please help, we have no intentions of leaving the Village. According toGoya, the Mayor has not contacted them to discuss the problems.Mayor - stated he has talked to Mr. Drago and the EPA has not found anything wrong.2. Janeen Manzoni, 35 Beverly Drive - asked if new budget has been reached yet and how it will affect the tax rate.Clerk/Treasurer said the increase at this time is 33¢ per $1,000 assessed value.3. Patricia Pawe1czak, 298 N. Main Street - is sidewalk plowing a courtesy or paid for by taxes? Mayor stated it isincluded in the Village taxes since the DPW does the work. Also stated that the Village needs to have a garbage patrol.Many people pnt garbage out very early and it is a mess.4. Bill Ludwig, 53 Sunset Drive - Very glad sidewalks are plowed by the Village. Has three children that need clearedwalks for safety iu getting to and from school. AJso wants to keep the 24/7 Village Police Department because his familyfeels very safe here because of the great job they are doing. Has friends in Lancaster and their taxes have gone up a lotsince the police consolidated and the service is less. Doesn't care about his taxes as long as his family is safe.5. Robert Miller, 56 Terrylynn Drive - regarding Paul Pinto's letter, he has lived in the village for 24 years and haswanted this to come to a vote all that time.6. Judy DelPrince, 11 Rosalind Drive - Very disappointed in the Village, time for a wake-up 0<111. Back stabbing needs tostop. Bring consolidation up for a public vote and let everyone decide. Let people see the supposed studies that weredone.Mayor - County did two studies and are available to anyone who wants to see them. Explained that the County could notguarantee the same services as we have now including the special services like foot patrol, and special events, etc.7. Davis Root, 32 Glenwood - stated he received the letter from Mr. Pinto and it says one thing and other things he hasread says other things. Does not know what to believe. Mayor read the petition for the record and then Mr. Root said thatthe petition was explained to him by Mr. Pinto as being for a "survey" and that is obviously a bold faced lie.8. Steve Jaworek, 10 Beverly Drive - the Board needs to just make cuts - for example the Gazebo Concerts, doesn't goto them, don't need to pay for them; all the fix up at Hennan Park; flowers along Main Street: Christmas Decorations; usesand instead of salt during the wintertime; why repave streets instead ofjust patching.Trustee Houston stated that all the costs for the Concert Series is paid for by businesses and donations. Only thing theVillage pays for is mowing the grass. For Henuan Park we received grant money and donations to fix it up, the DECcovered the costs of tlle creek problems and, the prisoners came and will come again to clean up the mess on the hillside,most of which was caused by the neighbors dumping stuff; the flowers are all donated by Friends of the Village, Inc.sponsors and again the Village only waters them. All of the Christmas Decorations are put up by the Old Ford Lanesvolunteers. As far as using sand instead of salt, cleanup in the spring would cost a lot more; some streets are so bad thatpatching would only make them worse.Mr. Jaworek's final comment was to cut the Board's salaries.9. Jean Brown, 5 Locust Street - Park looks great but need to do something about the Inman property. All year longthere is a bad smell from the sewer caused by Goya. Over 13 years - same smell. Sewer Dept. comes and drops pellets inand it takes care of problem once in awhile.

Page 23/15/04

VISITORS - Cont'd.Trustee Atti stated that only the Erie County Sewer Dept. can fix the problem.Ms. Brown also stated that when Mr. Pinto came to her house he was asked point-blank ifthe petition was for dissolutionand if so, not interested but if it was for a study - would be interested in signing. He totally misrepresented himself.10. Kurt Boczarski, 13 Woodland Pkwy - New to the Village and also own property in Town. Village services are muchbetter. Questioned why Village has to pay an attorney when it was Pinto that lied to the people.Attomey Yusick stated that once a petition is filed, the law requires the Village to respond.II. Marlene Allen, 80 Center Street - Mr. Pinto misled me and I need to know what will happen now. Appreciate whatthe Board has done for the Village. Walking is a wonderful experience. Everyone should take advantage of the beauty.Mayor stated that on April 22 the Supreme Conrt Judge will make his decision. If Pinto wins the Village will have tofigure out what goes where but the debt will stay in the Village. Consolidating is not free. Also noted that in the springthe Village will be using their VCR (Village Center Revitalization) grant money to add old-fashioned lighting and newsidewalks, benches, etc. along one side of North Main Street, which will help even more.12. Ron McPeek, 48 N. Main Street - Personally stands behind what is written in the Town Crier. If anyone disputes itthey are free to come in and discuss it. At 3:00 a.m. got a call from the Village Police because he had left his doorunlocked. That would not happen if we did not have a Village Department. Stated that Panl Pinto is a coward for sendingeach person a letter to come to the Board Meeting and not showing up himself. Finally Mr. McPeek showed the Board arendering of the restaurant he is planning to open in the old "Jammers" building.13. Ernie Masullo, 22 School Street - 32 year resident; chose to live in the Village not the Town; 26 years with the TownPolice Dept; upset that he does not have a chance to discuss matters tonight with Mr. Piuto; as President of the PoliceBenevolence Association it would be imprudent to take over the Village Police Department because the Town does nothave the manpower to do so. In 1997 there was a study done for the Town and at that time there was a shortage. Callshave increased and it is worse now. If the petition goes through it will be bad for both the Town and the Villageresidents.14.Thorna Burris, 247 S. Main Street - Wants to resolve the Goya issue before going home tonight. A shutter orredirecting the lights is all that is needed. Does not want another lawsuit against Village. Would like someone from theBoard to witness the lights in the face. If everything they do is within the law, wants it in writing.14. Sam Dejohn, 27 Beverly Drive -lived whole life in Village and 32 years with Village and Town Police. Have betterservice now than will ever have with Town. Mr. Pinto has appointed himself "whatever" but as far as he is concerned theVillage Board has never said anything deceptive. Mr. Pinto should have showed up to speak for himself.

DEPARTMENT HEAD, COMMITTEE REPORTSMAYOR1. Spoke briefly about the new restaurant Mr. McPeek is planning on opening in the late spring.2. Lots more improvements on North Main Street3. Regionalism - show me the savings and I will listen. Lancaster's taxes are going up 97% because of policeconsolidation. Many other Villages (Blasdell, Springville, etc) are going back to having their own force for better and lessexpensive coverage.

TRUSTEE DiMARTINO1. Very frustrated over the Pinto writings. All Village meetings are open to the public so residents should attend if theyneed clarification or call a Trustee at home. We are all taxpayers and do not want to pay more that necessary. Work hardon getting grants and money from our legislators. We go to bat for everyone. Received $90,000 CDBG for Friend Street.Wonld not receive if Village went to Town. Went to Albany to lobby for pension refonn. Have gone door-to-door forsupport letters for Block Grants. We work hard for the betterment of the Village.

TRUSTEE ATTI1. Thanked everyone for coming and making their comments. This Board has put their hearts into their jobs. If youaverage out the taxes over the years the increase is very reasonable. If you want things different, 11m for office and do abetter job.2. Water leak was found and repaired on Sunset.3. Center Street project almost complete. All the cost of project was paid for from grant.

TRUSTEE DEJOHNI. In referring to Paul Pinto's letter: If you merge, you don't need a government. The Board has studied the pro's andcon's of merging and found it would not be financially effective. Look at Lancaster, Blasdell, and Springville. We have afulltime 24/7 police department and our fire department is the number I responder. Have been approached with promisesof jobs for my family if I agree to merge. You do not send your Village down the river for self gain. Has sat down withMr. Pinto in his home to discuss these items. Have spoken over the last 2 years with Lancaster police officers and family.Both from the Village and Town and they said not to merge. The Village Hall has not lied to anyone. Only Mr. Pinto hasbeen to a board meeting to request dissolution.

ATTORNEYI. Water plant sale coming to a conclusion.2. Adelphia Cable contract are ready for review.

POLICEI. Made a short statement: Came to Village as Police Chief in 1992 from Eden. Prior to that the Village had gone over tothe Sheriffs Department and there were a lot of complaints that they did not do enough for the Village. When he tookover, used Town of Evans policies to set up a good department. Now they provide better and less expensive service thanif they were to merge. Village Chief's salary is equal to that of a regular police officer in the Town. Outside services donot work nearly as well as our own department.

GENERAL CREW CHIEFI. Thanked everyone for their positive comments.2. Chipper will be out next week to chip up all of the fallen branches.

FIRE COMMISSIONERSI. LY1l1le Kaminski reported that Simplex has been working on the alarm system in the fire hall. Area is too large so theywill be setting up two circuits.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES:MOTION Trustee Houston, seconded Tmstee DiMartino to approve the minutes of the May 24, 2004 meeting assubmitted. Trustee DeJohu abstained, as she was not present at that meeting. CARRIED

VISITORSl. Paul Pinto, 17 Lerezak Dr. - (Read prepared statement to Village Board): I don't know if yon want to hear from meand I am sony if! am going to waste your time but there are some things that Ijust need to say. The State Supreme Courtappoiutment resulted in no judge and no mayor. In the weeks to follow the eonrl ordered the Village of Angola not to acton the dissolution petition. It is a shame that the judge was unable to hear how our elected officials informed the villageresident about our petition. The State Supreme Court judge did not have the opportunity to hear how the Village ofAngola failed 10 respond to FOIL requests. The petition contains 523 village resident signatures all within l20-dayperiod. Failure of Ihc Village to respond to numerous FOIL reqnests caused our petition fiI ing to be delayed by threeweeks. Hopefully an appeal will offer us the opportunity to present this data to the jndge. In December of 2003 theVillage indicated that they did not have a list of registered voters for the ViIlagc of Angola. In the June 4'h edition ofthePenny Saver our mayor stated that the petition contains 299 signatures, How can you validntc signatures without a list ofregistered voters? Where is your resolution to invalidate the submitted petition since the Board of Elections has notrendered a decision? Our Village officials are in the best position to offer tax relief options to our Village residents. Ourofficials either refuse or fight any effort by the community to seek options for tax relief. Instead of historical style streetlamps, residents are eager for some kind of a retum on their annual Village tax rate. Our scrviees are equal to the Townexcept for the additional level of government. In addition, the County of Erie encourages merging and is willing to fundany financial analysis as needed including a review of the impact of government dissolution. The comtnul1ity·is eager toview and stndy these options. Since our elected officials refuse to consider these viable options the only alternativercsidents have is to consider the government dissolution. Area businesses and residents will carn significant tax savingswhile Village employees will earn longevity and secured retirement benefits. Instead onr officials hold onto theirgovernment posts in support of higher spending, depleting reserve flUIds aud claiming dissolution will "get rid of ourVillage." Based on Village law, a village government dissolution is the only option that will earn the greatest return forthe commnnity find to relain area businesses. Thank you for the challenge. I enjoyed it. Mr. Carlson I hope you can findthe time to attend our appeal hearing. Thank you.Mayor commented that the reason he was not able to attend the Supreme Court hearingwas due to being called for juryduty and that Deputy Mayor DiMartino appeared in his place together with Tmstees Dejohn, Houston, and AttorneyYusick. Also stated that FOIL's were all replied to immediately upon receipt and if the infol1uation was not available, theClerk advised where to get it. In reference to Mr. Pinto's comment about not spending money on streetscape but rathersave the taxpayers money - all mOlues for the North Main Street Streetscape Project comes from VCR Grant monies thatare divided by four different municipalities, not from Village taxes.2. Jack Krause, 5 Mark Lane - requested update on the proposed mqjor snb-division on Terrylynn and Sunset.Mayor stated that it will be in the hands of the Planning Bonrd. They are awaiting the application to be filed. A SEQRAwill have to be completed and before anything is done, there will be Public Hearings held which will be published in thepaper.
