Mr. Faiella briefly discussed the opinion of the County’s Bond Counsel in response to the Association’s drafted proposed Local Law. Mr. Rothman was unavailable to attend and gave Mr. Faiella his opinion to make the necessary modifications to suit the proper needs of the Board and is willing to sit with the County Bond Counsel to review the legal aspects of the proposal.

Mrs. Swanson noted the grandfather clause under the County Attorney’s opinion and was concerned with the idea that the County may loose benefits under Section 527 of the Municipal Law.

Mr. Darcy suggested if the Board will go along with the State process, they might as well as include consolidation of sewer districts under one package.

Mr. Latimer suggests the Board to go through the State Comptroller for assistance as it may speed up the process.
