Motion seconded by Mr. <br />Moran. Unanimously carried. <br /> <br />First item on the agenda was a discussion with Mr. John Karge Village Clerk to discuss <br />alternate members for the Planning Board. Mr. Karge presented the Board with a <br />handout and stated he had attended a seminar in Poughkeepsie on storm water run off. <br />There were a series of classes and he attended the one regarding the Planning Board. He <br />went on to state the portion he wanted to bring to the attention of the Planning Board was <br />the second regarding alternate members. He went on to state that the alternate would <br />have to be appointed by the Board of Trustees and meet all the requirements ora full time <br />member. He also feels that having an alternate would allow more flexibility. Mr. Morris <br />asked if there was any discussion about having the alternate attending so many meetings <br />a year and Mr. Karge stated no they did not. He did say they were very strict about one <br />thing - the night the alternate comes to the meeting and there is a vote - the Board must <br />make sure that the alternate is "up to speed" on the items to be discussed. The Board as a <br />whole felt it was a good idea and they would discuss is but he would like to get more <br />details. Mr. Karge stated he would be willing to volunteer to be an alternate as he had <br />served on the Planning Board for many years in the past. <br /> <br />DOLLAR GURU~ DUTCHESS SHOPPING PLAZA <br />First on the agenda was the request of Mr. Fernandez with a proposal for a sign at the <br />Dutchess Shopping Plaza.
