podium look like a festar general with that uh all on so I gotta say that um I had the pleasure of meeting Eliza the first time a couple months ago Bridget Harvey our communications director and Kim Doyle uh in the supervisor's office Eliza came in and as part of your Eagle Scout becoming an eag Scout it was part of a merit badge merit badge uh was it that you had to interview asked some questions of an elected official yes I thought it was great all right she comes in I knew and I think Bridget and so did Kim after about an hour with this young lady that we like that woman's going to be the freaking president of the United States someday did she know did she know that you would talk for an hour As She interviewed you actually she's pretty good at that too aren't you Eliza you know that I mean I I kind of met my match and I knew that it's very possible I'll be working for her someday so then I got invited to actually when she became an eagle scout wasn't that about a month or six weeks ago or something yeah and your brother is an eagle scout too um and um I got to say uh she got up

and gave her talk and whatever and once again I mean senior in high school corre graduated graduated now Rising freshman in college mature Beyond years and I hope you'll get a chance to hear her talk I'll stop flapping my lips but the reason why we wanted to give uh to recognize Eliza um and I think you'll hear it in this Proclamation of just why uh Eliza is as impressive as I have tried to describe this is a proclamation of Excellence presented to Eliza drum whereas it is the intent of the Webster Town board to recognize the outstanding effort efforts contributions and Leadership traits within our community and whereas the journey to Eagle Scout is a challenging one lined with many tasks and responsibilities that only the strongest of Scouts are able to overcome and master and whereas Eliza drum has worked diligently through the course of her involvement with the scouts it is through hard work service to the community and Leadership that she has earned this prestigious Rank and whereas Eliza earned her Eagle cout rank through her project supporting the Webster kuas Club through this project she built five benches as well as

several bat and bird houses that will support Camp smile and whereas as the first Eagle in troop 425 the first female eagle in the town of Webster and the 34th female eagle in the senica waterways Council Eliza is a true leader within the Boy Scouts of America Association the town of Webster is grateful for the countless hours of service she has provided to our community and is incredibly proud of this accom of this accomplishment now therefore be it resolved that on the occasion of her Eagle Scout award as the supervisor of the town of Webster and be on behalf of the Webster Town board and the entire Webster Community we extend our sincerest congratulations to Eliza for her accomplishment and [Applause] Leadership something um I know you want it hi um thank you so much I was not expecting this this is very cool um but thank you it's been an honor to serve as

I so bye bye bye take care I do believe that we saw Bridget a little bit of shyness out of Eliza today I never thought i' see I didn't either I mean she's incredible yeah very impressive okay well we're that's as much fun as we're going to have tonight and that because the next uh item on the agenda is the open to the floor each speaker will be AOW up to five minutes Dave if you want to do it you got to follow Eliza's uh do do do you want to no really okay okay so now we'll move on to the next item which is the July 18th uh board meetings minutes Dean thank you timely and I thought very thorough and accurate I make a motion that we approve those second supervisor flarey I councilwoman cataldi I councilman kahill I councilwoman wi I councilwoman r i this is you Jen yep I did inspect the bills seem to be in order didn't have

any issues so I would move that we approve the bills um as submitted by the Director of Finance second councilwoman councilman kahill I councilwoman w i supervisor flarey I councilwoman cataldi I councilwoman Wright I and I reviewed the prepaid warrants is submitted by Paul Adams the Director of Finance and make a motion we approve those second supervisor flarey I councilman Cahill I councilwoman cataldi I councilwoman Wright I councilman w i and I approved the I went through the purchase orders and uh submitted by Paul Adams the Director of Finance and make a motion that we approve those second supervisor flarey I councilman kahill I councilwoman Catal I councilwoman w i councilwoman rright I now you're going get a break so the next two items up um are resolutions that are at tied to contracts agreements that uh Coke Fair life in the town of Webster are still in

negotiations on um I think they uh showed on the website and social media uh as of about 24 hours ago as tabled so before I make the motion to table them I think it's important that either myself Andor Patty who has been right there at the table during these negotiations of these contracts I just uh want to give a quick update on this both both of these I'm somewhat confident we will be bringing back to the August 15th Town board meeting um I've let Koch Fairlife uh and their attorneys know we need the final version with enough time for for really both the board members to review it before they're going to vote on it but also to have the community see it we upload these things to the town website and social media um what the what the board and the community are going to see when the final versions are ready besides a lot of legal ease is that the the conveyance pipe agreement is essentially around $7 million and uh 96% of that um is going

to be paid for by Coke it's a a 10-year agreement because it'll match a 10-year bond correct um um that's the best way to explain it the reason why they're not paying 100% of it is that several months ago the board made the Visionary I'll say uh decision to not just have that pipe built for flow of only Coke Fairlife but because it goes through an area of town that we think there'll be expansion and Redevelopment on the Xerox site that the town decided to uh really it was for a very incrementally low cost couple hundred thousand, dollar to expand it from 2 million gallons a day to like 2.8 million gallons a day which gives a lot of lateral potential into that pipe for new housing developments Andor for commercial industrial developments on the zerox campus in fact the 800,000 gallons a day is tan amount to uh I think it's got to be around 5,000 edus and onetime tie in fee would be5 to6 million for anybody that ties into these in the future so the town paying

$400,000 to create excess capacity for what could be5 $6 million of onetime TI in fees not to mention added flow seemed like a good business decision building it for the future building it for the future um I would like to think that the the that that contracts final verbiage will be done the next one with the one-time tie-in fee in the last couple of months we've done public hearings and we changed our code for more of a large industrial user um and in essentially for how much uh discharge into the system K Fair life's going to do it ends up in our code being a 21.9 million onetime tie-in fee to our uh sewer system so we have agreed to have Koch Fairlife pay that 2 21.9 million over 10 years at 2.19 million per year to be honest with you that agreement is pretty much done but we didn't want to peac meal it I didn't want to have that on today I want them I want to do them both at the same time um

and I think that's how you felt too Patty absolutely um and even though was done I still don't think there was enough time to give the board that agreement we just got it I don't know Monday or Tuesday yes so that's basically I mean do you have any questions comments before I no you can do the table in because this is your department but but um yeah that's right because this is for me to sign it but that that's my explanation of why we're tabling it so I would move that we table the resolution authorizing the town supervisor to sign a contract with Koch Fairlife on a 10-year payment plan on 12,000 linear foot conveyance pipe upsize from tber road to Phillips Road trunk line Second Council monaldi I councilman kahill hi supervisor flarey I councilman w i councilman r i and along with that for the reasons that the supervisor has has explained I would also move that we table the resolution to authorize the supervisor to sign a contract with Koch Fairlife on a tenure payment plan on a one-time tie-in fee to the town sanitary sewer

system second councilwoman caldi I councilman kahill I supervisor flare I councilman w i councilwoman Wright I all right well hey between the two of them it's almost $30 million so let's measure twice cut once it is a generational yes agreement yep I totally agree so we're getting there though aren't we Patty we are okay Paul we're getting there okay um the next item up kind of a housekeeping we do this every year um and that's because some of the school taxes in are for Ontario residents uh I guess is the best way to explain it um don't we do this also for Penfield I think but for tonight any questions by the board members of this resolution no no um Jenny it's your department okay I would move to authorize the oh sorry um appoint Shelly

laa town of Ontario as the school tax collector for 2024 2025 school year for the portion of properties in the town of Webster located in the Wayne Central School District second councilman w i councilwoman Wright I supervisor flarey I councilwoman cataldi I councilman kahill I and Patty the next in last formal one is your departments it is and it involves um recycling items from the sewer department and as we rebuild our Sewer Department I think we're going to be seeing more and more of these that are just uh out of date no longer working um and just not part of the new plan so I would move that we approve the following items for recycling from the sewer department there are eight of them that are listed here and I'm just going to make one resolution that we recycle all of those second councilman cataldi I councilman kahill I supervisor flarity I councilman w i councilman right I now uh that's the last item on the agenda we have been here uh for almost

three hours now so I'm going to uh not go with the round table tonight but I am making a motion that we go into executive session uh under Section 105 uh section one sub chapter B discussions regarding proposed pending of current litigation I'd like to have the town board present for that executive session and invite uh chief of police uh Dennis Coler and Captain Mark Reed second um supervisor flarey I councilman kahill I councilwoman caldi I councilman wi I councilman right I and I guess you
