Also, no information was available from the town engineer regarding the infiltration thought to be in the Boston street or Medusa court area. Board members approved a request by the chief of police on mowing the sides of the Syracuse-Webster road from Railroad avenue to the high school due to youths walking these areas daily since school has started. Old Turbine Carl Myrick reported the old turbine located in the building at the corner of Dolan drive and Main streets, has been removed and is ready to be taken to Oswego for the historical society. He added an old furnace remains in the building, thought to be oil, and that the town has no use for it. The town plans to use the building for winter storage of tools and equipment, however, fill will be needed where equipment was removed, and cement poured to make the floor on one level for equipment, such as lawn mowers. Also a number of window lights need replacing, having been broken out over the years the building was not in use. Grisamer reported no grading had been done to date by the owner at Village Green where a catch basin and culvert has been requested due to a severe water problem. The street department is to install the basin and culvert as soon as the owner grades his ground to drain at one of the front corners, preferably the northwest corner of his property line. Cost is estimated at S2OO. It was noted Mr. Joyce, an insurance representative, is expected to be in attendance at the next meeting of the board.
