Alderman Jerry Moore and carried by a unanimous vote.
Item #5. Consideration of a Resolution approving the relocation
of Peytonville/Sam School Road. The Council discussed the proposed
Resolution with IBM representatives regarding the Maintenance of
Peytonville/Sam School Road. Since the Town of Westlake is ib ';.no
position to maintain roads of this magnitude within the Town the
Board of Aldermen is of the opinion that there must be a written agree-
ment between IBM and the Town of Westlake stating that IBM will,
maintain all roads within their developement until a mutually
agreed upon future time. After Mr. Jim Smith agreed to this pro-
posal, Alderman Howard Dudley moved to approve Resolution #54, a
Resolution approving the relocation of Peytonville Sam School Road
subject to the Council's approval of a letter of maintenance
agreement between the Town of Westlake and IBM. Motion was seconded
by Alderman Jerry Moore and carried by a unanimous vote.
Item #6. The Board of Aldermen, acting as a Board of Adjustment,
considered a request from IBM to grant several variances to the
Town's Ordinance #124, without which unnecessary hardships would
be created for IBM. The Mayor read the request for variances and
justification for each request for a variance submitted by IBM.
After discussion, Alderman Jerry Moore moved to grant a variance
to Subsection 4(B) of Ordinance #124. Motion was seconded by
Alderman Sherry Dudley and carried by a unanimous vote.
Motion was made by Alderman Sherry Dudley, seconded by Alderman
Jerry Moore to grant a variance to Subsection 4 (E) of Ordinance
#124. Motion carried by a unanimous vote.
Motion was made by Alderman Jerry Moore, seconded by Alderman
Howard Dudley to grant as stated, a variance to Subsection 4 (C)
of Ordinance #124. During discussion that followed, IBM Project
Manager, Mr. Jim Smith asked that the minutes state that when
Ordinance #124 waspp ginally drafted, the roads within the IBM
property were to�pr`%te. It now appears that the roads will be
public and IBM should not be penalized by a 500 foot setback.
Alderman Jerry Moore, Alderman Howard Dudley and Alderman Sherry
Dudley voted for the motion. Alderman Ralph Rampellini abstained.
( a copy of the request for variance by IBM is attached to these
minutes and made a part hereof)
