July 2, 2007
Present: Dave Cichanowicz, Sara Evans, Hugh Switzer
Priorities:
· Senior Citizen/Recreation Center- eyesore "ugly, steel
shed"--do something as it is not compatible with the
character of the hamlet
· Sidewalks-root systems of overgrown trees has
deteriorated the sidewalks throughout the hamlet, need to
be repaired. Consider possible extension of sidewalks
north and south of Tasker Park and Cochran Park (to be
determined by the general public).
· Parks-Parking in Cochran Park needs to be more efficient,
paved lot with lines. Request placement of permanent
restrooms in Cochran Park with an addition of a
concession stand that can be leased from the Town. Some
consistent and sensible policy needs to be implemented
for lights in Cochran and Tasker Parks. Requested
meeting with Recreation and Dept. Public Works.
· Bus stop (S-92 & Hampton Jitney) due to poor sightline to
pull out of Peconic Lane, suggest moving it in front of the
Highway building/First Class Auto shop and provide kiosk
to shelter persons waiting.
· Peconic School-strongly favor the Town's purchase to use
building and grounds for non-recreational use (e.g.
community garden). Stakeholders wish to be involved in
the planning process for the School.
· Post office area-Dickerson Excavating suggested
decorative retaining wall with natural stone planting to
amend the severe drop in elevation across from Post office
where people park to get their mail/go to bakery. This
design could be mirrored in parking lot with broken rail
across the street.
Stakeholders will notify public of future meeting via postal
patron mailing to 11958 zip code.
