Brant Town Board

Re: Recommendations from the Planning Board on the Master Plan

The Town of Brant Planning Board has reviewed the Town Master Plan and makes the following recommendation.
It is the opinion of the Planning Board that the current Master Plan meets the need of the Town for the near future, but it should be reviewed again in the next five (5) to ten (10) years.

In arriving at this decision, the Planning Board considered the following:

1.	While there are some statistical updates required, such as, current and future population, or the number of Police Officers employed, or the closing of the Brant School, these anomalies would not negate the current land use provisions of the Master Plan
2.	There have not been any requests to the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) to redistrict areas to provide more commercial or industrial zoning areas.
3.	There have not been any requests of the ZBA to increase the residential areas as detailed in the current zoning maps,
4.	While some agricultural areas are no longer in production, there have been no requests to rezone them for other uses.
5.	The only variance requests filed with the ZBA have been for setback variances, which do not impact significantly on the land use as described in the Master Plan.
6.	Special use permits have all fallen within the existing zoned areas and the existing or amended zoning laws.

Based on the above considerations, it is the opinion of the Planning Board that the existing Master Plan remain unchanged at this time, but that it be reviewed in five (5) to ten (10) years.

Respectfully submitted, 
Joseph Ostrowski, Chairman

	COUNCILMAN DeCARLO: Nothing to report.

	COUNCILMAN MUFFOLETTO: Looking into the automatic doors for the Sr.  Community Bldg.

SUPERVISOR PERO: The Supervisor noted that he forgot to bring the tonnage report for the e-waste.  
He will present it next month.  

He then read the Ag & Market dog shelter inspection reports and noted that the kennels and 
paperwork came back as satisfactory.  The DCO noted a few conditions that must be met before their 
next inspection, one of them being that a roof must be installed over the runs.  Councilman Clark 
noted that he would like the dog shelter on Town property.

JANICE ROSS CHIPS INCREASE: Supervisor Pero acknowledged the Highway Clerk Janice Ross for her 
hard work to increase the CHIPS award for the 2015 Highway road improvements which brought in an 
extra $25,000 for the Town.

RECOGNIZED PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR:  
Ellsworth Nolan of Brant Farnham Rd: Asked why Evangola State Park is not free to Town residents.  Supervisor Pero responded that he tried to make it free to Town residents  for years.

Joyce Ellis of Brant Farnham Rd: Questioned asked if this was anything new to report about on the Weitsman issue.  Supervisor Pero replied that the Code Officer will be here shortly.

Supervisor Pero called CEO Brecker who stated he was on his way back to the Town Hall.  At this time Supervisor Pero read the Code Officer’s report.

As the Board waited for the CEO, Supervisor Pero listed the correspondence he has received:

•	Sales Tax revenue was down 1.57% from last years corresponding payment and the YTD is 1.65% above last year

Return to privilege of the floor:

Frank Broughton of Brant North Collins Rd:   Advised the Board that residents may want to purchase what is called an “Empire Pass” which would entitle them to free entry into all NYS parks for 1 year.  The price is $65.00 per year.

Joyce Ellis of Brant Farnham Rd:  Asked what the Town plans on doing with the Wargula property.  Supervisor Pero responded the Town is not going to do anything with it.  Ms. Ellis then asked why the Town can’t include entry to the pool with park rentals.  Supervisor Pero said the pool costs lot to run and the Town never included it.  He then began to explain that the tax cap being imposed on Town’s is making some Town’s borrow to balance their budgets.  Pero then added that if the Town’s can’t balance by borrowing, then they will start cutting services.  The cost of things is going up and therefore the Town can’t give things like pool access for free.

Brenda Giacchino of Brant Farnham RD: Commented that if Erie County purchases that lake property, we will be paying for it anyway, through our County taxes.

Penny Barefoot of Cain Road:  Commented that the Town needs to invest in water.  She stated that if the Town runs water, people will build.  If they build, tax revenue will increase.  She added that if the Town doesn’t start building, it will cease to exist.

General discussion continued until Code Enforcement Officer Brecker arrived.

Brenda Giacchino of Brant Farnham Rd: Commented adamantly about the need of water in the Town stating it’s just a basic need like air.

CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER’S REPORT: Code Officer Gary Brecker arrived at 8:07 PM and re-read his report for the Board.   He then began to address a complaint someone filed against him accusing him of abusing his Town cell phone and being unavailable.  Brecker then gave a brief synopsis of his availability via his Town issued and personal cell phone.  He stated that for five years, he used his personal cell phone for all his phone calls.  When his bill started reaching in the hundreds, he asked for a raise to help pay the bill.  Instead, the Town issued him a cell phone.  However, he stated that he still uses his own personal cell phone in addition to the Town issued phone because many of the Town residents have his personal number because of the years he used it exclusively.  Therefore, he wanted the Board to know he is available at multiple numbers and there should be no one unable to reach him.  He then spoke of a discussion he had with the contractor who did repairs to the home owned by the person who filed the complaint accusing him of being unavailable to issue a permit.  He said the contractor replied that he never said that the job was held up because they couldn’t reach him for a permit.  He explained to the CEO that the job was held up because of the snow, and they couldn’t get to that job until the spring.  However, there were others ahead of her and they didn’t get to her until July. The contractor also offered to write a letter for the Town Board to confirm that the job was not held up due to their inability to reach him.

He then asked the Board to allow an executive session at the end of the meeting for another issue he wanted to present.  He also advised the Board that Ed Dinkuhn is signed up for training.  The Code Officer also notified the Board that he too had just completed his recertification recently.  He noted that the State re-wrote the code and not everyone passed the test given at the end of training because of the changes.  He however, did pass and is now re-certified.  No further discussion took place.  Supervisor Pero motioned to accept the Code Enforcement Officer’s report as read, and was seconded by Councilman DeCarlo.  5 ayes, 0 nays.  MOTION CARRIED.

Resident Joyce Ellis wished to speak to clarify a couple of things.  She stated “I did not say it took 9 months, I said it took 5 months and we allowed 4 months for the snow.  My contractor tried calling him from September, he never called, never returned his calls.  He called someone in the Town Clerk’s Office and they told him Mr. Brecker is part-time and can’t always return calls.  Then finally, my contractor called the Town of Evans and they told him Brant doesn’t require a permit to replace a roof.  The roof was finally completed in May, we had a horrible winter, and my roof could have collapsed like many others.  Thank God it didn’t.  Mr. Brecker is rude, and did threaten me with legal action.”  CEO Brecker responded, “You never called me.”
