CLERK’S BUSINESS

Minutes of the April 27, 2021 Regular Meeting were approved as presented.

Minutes of the May 10, 2021 Special Meeting were approved as presented.

PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR

Leslie Gold, 1919 Pawtucket Avenue, asked for a traffic update Balltown Road roundabout at Aqueduct Road and also asked that there be a reminder on the Town website to remind residents to clean up after their dogs while on their walks. Ms. Gold said she is very pleased with the paving at the recycling and transfer station. She noticed there's an area now with gravel for parking and she hopes this land will be in reserve and not adding it to the park land because she thinks at some time we might need to add on to Recycling Transfer Station. Ms. Gold stated she thinks the budget passed last November looked like a budget exercise not a proper budget she realized there were extenuating circumstances and she remembers when Supervisor Syed promised at some point those challenge lines would all be filled. At this point she said she hasn’t seen anything posted. Ms. Gold wants the next budget to be proper. Later in the meeting Ms. Gold commented on where essential and nonessential workers were derived from.

Linda Rizzo, 2229 Fairlawn Parkway, commented that she sent a couple of emails to the Town Board members over the shutdown and didn't know if anyone read them. She stated she was not pleased with the quality of plowing performed by the Highway Department of the Town roads this past winter. She said that she has mentioned to Supervisor Syed when Miss McGraw was in charge of the Highway Department the roads were always plowed and there was never a problem. Ms. Rizzo commented she is concerned with Supervisor Syed not running again and the concern is accountability, because of a new budget is being developed. In January Supervisor Syed will be gone and she has no accountability. Ms. Rizzo commented on the shutting down of Town Hall and what was aggravating to her was the reference of non- essential workers. She stated she thought that's the most degrading thing this state could ever come up with.

Lorene Zabin, 2455 Brookshire Drive, Commented that for the last year and a half she had not gotten a letter from Supervisor Syed about what was going on during the year of COVID- 19 concerning updates. Ms. Zabin commented that the Town Clerk’s office answered every phone call she made to them, along with the Assessor’s office and Brian Backus; she was able to talk with. She thought everyone could have done a better job over the last year and a half. She commented the plowing of the Town road last winter were not done like in the past and she doesn’t thing it has anything to do with the drivers, it was the supervision. Ms. Zabin commented that since Supervisor Syed is not seeking reelection, her best thing is to resign. She doesn’t think working another budget is going to do Supervisor Syed any good, it's going to do her a lot of harm and thought this is unfair to the Town and to the Town Board members if the Supervisor remains. Ms. Zabin also has concerns with all the employee of the Town of Niskayuna who do not live within the Town.

Supervisor Syed commented to Ms. Zabin, she still lives in the Town of Niskayuna and she is still going to live here for the next six months. She’s not turning her back on the Town, she was elected for a two-year term and she’s not going to cut that term short. Cutting the term short would be doing a disservice to all the people who voted for her. Supervisor Syed said she is not resigning.

Rich Oden, 36 Ray Street, he has lived in Niskayuna about 40 to 45 years and now 20 years he has lived in his current home on Ray Street. Mr. Oden has concerns with his current neighbor raising chickens in their backyard and there is also a rooster which is creating a smell. This smell is preventing him from opening his window. Mr. Oden asked for help from the Town Board on this issue.

Linda Rizzo, 2229 Fairlawn Parkway, commented that she wanted to clarify in her last statement she didn't hear officially from the Supervisor's office, she did though hear from both Councilman McPartlon and Councilwoman Murphy McGraw, although not officially, but they acknowledged that they did receive her emails. She also stated she agrees that Supervisor Syed is living in the Town of Niskayuna, but what she is talking about is accountability. When Supervisor Syed leaves the Town she’s gone, there's no accountability for anything she has done, because she doesn’t have a vested interest. If you remain here, as far as the voters, she said she voted for her, she would still like to see her step down and move on and get somebody in temporarily who's going to be accountable.

Supervisor Syed commented to Ms. Rizzo, any supervisor is accountable to the residents, that is true whether you are re-elected or not, that doesn't change her dedication to the Town and to insinuate that she wouldn't work as hard as she always has just because she will be moving at the end of her tenure is offensive to her.

COMMITTEE REPORTS

Highway, Parks and Recreation Committee, in absents of Councilwoman Perez Jaquith, Supervisor Syed read the follow committee report prepared by Councilwoman Perez Jaquith.

Community Programs Driving Range - The driving range has dried out and is open for the season. A special thanks to the Highway Department for all their help in getting this facility open for our residents.

Disc Golf- There is a new "Golf Map QR Code" at our disc golf course making it easy to see the course map identifying holes and yardage, right on your phone. This sign is posted on the kiosk near the 1st hole as well as the mailbox that holds the score cards.

June Programs - Registration is still open for our programs starting in June. Youth & Adult Golf lessons and Adult Tai Chi all begin June 1.

Our Senior Center continues to grow as a hub of activity as Covid restrictions ease. The eat-in and take out lunch program with Gershon's continues to see increased numbers, as do our exercise programs. Staff is launching a book group, restarting mahjong and getting the bocce areas in playable shape for summer. Staff remains very engaged with our seniors and is enjoying interacting more and more with them.

The Farmers Market committee continues to meet regularly in preparation for our upcoming 15-week season which will commence on July 10. We look forward to providing this very popular event to our residents.

Highway crews have been working on resident request list, trees, patching, and basin repairs. The sweeper is working its way through town for the first time. Yard waste is on scheduled pickup and is going well. To date, tree crew members have removed 49 trees due to storm damage and pursuant to resident requests. Crew members still have about 22 more trees to address. It has been a particularly busy season.

Crews have been working on the paving list by prepping for the first round of streets to be paved in mid- June. Thank you to the Water and Sewer crews who have been working on the manholes and water valves in preparation. Last week our Highway crew members paved the entrance to Blatnick park along with the area around the transfer station, adding much needed parking space to our park. The flats area off of Williams Street was also paved. Great work by all so far-thanks to all involved.

The next Highway, Parks and Recreation Committee meeting will be held on Wednesday May 5th at 8:15 a.m.

Economic Development and Historic Preservation and Environmental Conservation Committee, Councilman Della Ratta welcomed new members to the Climate Smart Task Force and the Conservation Advisory Council. He stated all of the Town’s committees are very important and wants to continue encouraging membership; this is a great way to not only get involved in the Town policies but to really affect change. Councilman Della Ratta thanked Chuck Piotrowski and Stephen Burkholder who are going to be on the Climate Smart Task Force and the Conservation Advisory Council respectively. He also thanked Fred Goodman who has been the Chair of the Zoning Board of Appeals for the last six years and he's been on that board for at least the last 10 year. He has done a great job and really steered us through quite some times over the past six or seven years. Fred is going to be missed, but we're very fortunate to have a new chair stepping in. Maureen McGinnis has been involved in a lot of planning in the Town of Niskayuna. Councilman Della Ratta looks forward to her steady hands at the helm of zoning board of appeals. Councilman Della Ratta reported there has been great progress at Rivers Ledge, which is very good because it's a trying time with building and building costs but they have over half the buildings under construction and the new Riverside Park is well underway. The next Economic Development and Historic Preservation and Environmental Conservation Committee will be held on June 4th at 8:30 a.m.

Water, Sewer and Engineering Committee: Councilwoman Murphy McGraw started by saying that she was very grateful for every compliment she ever got and any time her service is pointed out. She wished she could take credit for how hard the Highway Department works to keep the streets plowed and safe and passable in our community. She thought many times over the 10 years that she worked with Ray Smith and Frank Gavin they were successful in spite of her. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw said that she knows that they worked very hard this winter they will continue to work very hard this summer. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw reported the Town pool will be open in a few weeks and thanks to Ray Smith and his team. There is a resolution on tonight’s agenda of a group of young people who will be working at the pool and they are starting at 8:30 tomorrow morning. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw thanked Ray Smith and his team for continuing to make sure that our streets, parks and all Town facilities are as good as they can possibly be. The water crews have been out and about around Town refurbishing manholes, hydrant flushing and fixing any winter damage that took place. The Town will be redeveloping some of our Town wells. The Town of Niskayuna in addition to the water that we get from the City of Schenectady; we produce our own water, which much of it does come from the wells that are developed down by the river. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw thanked the water crews for continuing to redevelop the wells so the Town ensures we have as much water as we possibly need. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw reported the Engineering Department is looking to hire a summer intern. The department has done this in years past, it's somebody who can come in and learn and really be a valuable other set of hands and eyes and helping the department as much as they possibly can. If interested in serving as an engineering intern contact Councilwoman Murphy McGraw or Matt Yetto, Town Engineer. The splash pad will officially open June 5th.Councilwoman Murphy McGraw announced this year the Town is going to try inviting food trucks to the concerts on Thursday nights. This will give folks a chance to have dinner while they are listening to the concerts. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw commented on the retirement of Fred Goodman and his exemplary service to this community. He will be very missed by all. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw stated that Maureen McGinnis has also served this community very well and will now be serving as Fred Goodman’s replacement on the Zoning Board of Appeals, as the Chair. She has served on a variety of boards she has been on the Zoning Board of Appeals for a number of years and has really dug in, enjoying the process and elevates the discussions. She thinks that Maureen has very big shoes to fill but knows she’s is certainly up to the task and we are very grateful for her leadership. Councilwoman reported that there is a resolution on tonight agenda for a licensing agreement for kayaks at Aqueduct Park. This is in collaboration with the Canal Corp. Another resolution on the agenda tonight creates a safe internet purchase exchange zone here at Town Hall in the parking lot at the police station entrance. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw announced the Town is pursuing a variety of grants, thanks to the leadership of Town Comptroller Alma, such as things for our parks and public safety items. The Town has taken on a grants writer who will take on this task to help lighten the load a little bit on taxpayers and to attract new dollars into the community. Councilwoman Murphy McGraw also mentioned that our IT Director Seth Goldstein is putting together a business directory on the Town website and will be revamped the website to make it easier to read with information regarding parks and there availability. The next Public Works Committee meetings, the next meeting will be held on June 3rd at 8:30 a.m.

Police and Public Safety Committee: Councilman McPartlon reported operationally the committee discussed the policies of Alexa Pro programs that Chief Wall continues to work on as are part of things that came out of the Collaborative. The committee is also considering body cameras the Police Department has been given to demo and is working to see which ones will work best for the officers. As Councilwoman McGraw mentioned that the Town is looking for grants for those types of things so we continue to try to ease any of these burdens that may impact the taxpayers of the Town. The Police Department is now open for residents to come for fingerprinting, child safety seats checks and assisting with motor vehicle lockouts. During the meeting the committee discussed Traffic Logic, which is the company who makes the radar signs that are up around town and the direction as far as the annual fee for the maintenance of these signs and whether that will be coming from the Highway Department budget or the police department. Councilman McPartlon reported the new police cars hopefully will be manufactured in July and we'll be able to get them in service by the end of the year. Councilman McPartlon commented as Councilwoman McGraw mentioned there's a resolution she and Councilman Della Ratta sponsored on the Safe Exchange Zone that he and the committee also very much support. There will be 24-hour camera surveillance at the Niskayuna Police entrance on the parking lot side of Town Hall. This allows someone who needs to make some sort of exchange regarding a purchases made on line. Councilman McPartlon reported Officer Wyman will be attending the Field Training Officers Curriculum at Zone 5 in May, Officer Robinson and Officer Walter will be attending the Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement training at Troop G Headquarters in Latham. CPR recertification will be taking place in June for the department and the Police Department is still working with the Schenectady County on an active shooter training that will be taking place in the fall. The Police and Public Safety Committee is working with the Planning Department with regards to volleyball play this is taking place at Baker Woods Park and making sure that these are Niskayuna residents that are using this park. Lorene Zabin of Brookshire Drive requested a radar sign be installed and a complaint about enforcement and Grand Boulevard and Dean Street area which we will be looking into. A traffic study done in the area of Palmer Avenue, Union Street and Plum Street revealed 4100 cars. There's not a speed problem in that area, because the average speeds 25 miles an hour, but there is large volume of traffic on that roads. Councilman McPartlon reported Officer Henry and Walter conducted a public service video for the Nisky Now Food Drive. The Town Court should be reopening at 50 capacities and no trials, and may be going to be increasing their sessions to two to three a week when they do get open. This is to try to get some of the back log taken care of. Councilman McPartlon thanked Fred Goodman for his service to the Town of Niskayuna he will be missed, he was a gentleman that was very measured and all the residents that as Denise said who came before the Zoning Board of Appeals felt Fred was and the Committee treated them fairly and that was with his leadership on that board. Councilman McPartlon welcomed Maureen McGinnis who will be taking over as the chair of that board he said he has every confidence in her that her leadership will be just as well as Fred’s. The next Police and Public Safety Committee meetings will be held on June 1st at 8:00 a.m.

SUPERVISOR’S REPORT

Supervisor Syed reported an update on revised Covid guidelines, in public meetings if you're vaccinated you do not have to wear a mask and no longer have to socially distance of six feet. However we do have the room set up so that if you prefer to sit at a six foot distance from your neighbor you can do that on one side of the room and if you prefer to sit more close together you can do so, on the other side of the room. The Town will evaluate continually as we always have if we need to make any changes we will continue to following the CDC guidelines for interim public health recommendations for fully vaccinated people. Supervisor Syed stated employees who are vaccinated now no longer need to wear a mask and no longer need to socially distance. Visitors to any of our Town of Niskayuna facilities can do the same if you are vaccinated you now no longer need to wear a mask. No appointments are needed at Town Hall, we ask that you check in with the receptionist, continue to do temperature scan, and complete the self-attestation form. This can be completed on the tablets that we have provided in the rotunda or you can scan a QR code and complete the self-attestation from your phone. Supervisor Syed thanked Seth Goldstein for setting all that up. The June committee meetings will be the last committee meetings that will be remote. The order allowing for teleconference meetings will expire mid-June. Supervisor Syed said she will continue to evaluate the executive order in the event things changes.
