SNOWMOBILE COMMITTEE
Supervisor Wilt reported: the snowmobile trails are on the bottom of the list after the storm damage to that was significant.
The Powley Road is gone reported by Highway Superintendent Small, cannot estimate when it will be repaired. Bridges and washouts are extreme. Has pictures on computer if anyone would like to see them.
He reported the Town Roads held up pretty well. Bridge on Haskell Road is gone. The County is responsible for that one.
Supervisor Wilt wanted to thank the highway men who were out all weekend they did a great job. Highway Superintendent, Small also said when he called the men out to help, they were right there ready to help.
DAM
Supervisor Wilt reported the lake is very high during the storm it was 43” above zero and right now it looks like 46” above level, it looks like it is the highest it got Sunday morning. It went down very quickly. The boards are out of the dam.
Sarah Rudes reported Popular Point Campsite needs a lot of repair work after the storm.
ZONING
Zoning Officer Mel Lascola reported the JIF for the town garage was done and sent to the APA. We are in special use district and it will have to go in front of the ZBA and Planning Board. It will have to be put in the paper to do in December.
Supervisor Wilt said because this was a major project in Town it has to go before the Lake George. Lake Champlain Regional Planning Board.
Lascola asked if there has been anything done on the Septic Law, Supervisor Wilt said it was sent to the Town Attorney.
