May 12th 2010, Fishkill Town Board Meeting

Development was the hot topic today. There was s public hearing involving maximum building size. A developer representing Magnolia on 9D. Spoke up against it. He also reminded the town. Of his $700,000 donation to the drawdown, on the 12 million Rombout Sewer District. Of importance, is that Fishkill officials. Made a claim that this was a PLA (Project Labor Agreement). The developer never heard of the PLA. This development is on the Blossom Loop accross from Castle Point.

The board then went into Executive Session.

Upon Return, a discussion about the new Highland Valley Trailer Park was discussed. This WAS NOT ON THE AGENDA, and was brought up after the Executive Session, as people leave the meeting and do not return.

This will be a Lot Lease agreement. There will be 110 units at 70-140K each. This property is the Montfort Mine. It adjoins Highland Valley and public access will be off Snow Mountain. Clove Creek is also in the area. This will also add 111 children to Haldane School District.

  1. Thank you for attending the Cold Spring Village meeting last night, Ozzy. You provided important background to the Fishkill Town Board and its questionable manner of doing business. I hope more Fishkill residents will take the time that you have to look at what their Town and Planning Boards are up to before it is too late, and you find yourselves mired in debt, overbuilding and pollution! Thank you again!

  2. You said it, with all the development in Fishkill. It had to ask to bond out 6.5 million for deficit spending. This is the main reason this project is going through. The town took 650K of developer money for reserve sewer capacity.
