Town Clerk, Margaret DeFoe had concerns with the present planning/zoning application process. She explained that over the last year a zoning application, planning application & a long form SEQRA have vanished. Clerk informed Town Board of process her office follows when an application is given to them at counter. Town Clerk feels an application process needs to be implemented whereas documentation doesn’t leave building. As F.O.I.L. officer, the Town Clerk has to have this information available for people to review if they come in and want to check out a project. She feels that documentation should not leave town hall building. Copies can be made if they need to review information in another location. The planning & zoning board files are located in planning office, where they are easily accessible for review. Board went into discussion regarding this problem. Town Board determined that Town Policy would be revised to state “no original document once in Town Hall can be removed”. Copies can be made but the original document should not leave building. Councilman Tillson suggested expanding electronic system in Town Clerk’s office. He suggested that original document be given to Town Clerk, she would then scan and forward to appropriate department electronically. Original document would be in folder. Clerk stated only problem would be maps. Board stated that we may need to require another set of maps in application process. Programming for this set up will be needed on Clerk’s computer.
