B. PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR:
1. Honeoye Public Library 2012 Budget Request – Mrs. Wendy Krause
Mrs. Krause introduced Mrs. Marcia Young and Mrs. Cynthia Langkamp. They are Canadice residents and Board of Trustees for the library.
Mrs. Krause indicated that we are in year number four in their proposed progression to bring the Town of Canadice up to what it actually costs per resident for library services. $22,534 is requested in the 2012 budget. 715 Canadice residents have OWWL cards and of those, 659 have Honeoye Public Library cards.
The end of the year financial status for the library is listed with the report submitted.
Long range strategic planning was looked at in 2009. One of the highest responses for future needs was building expansion for space; meeting room space, work room space, etcetera. A $500,000 grant was awarded to the Honeoye Public Library through the Fingerlakes Area Community Endowment and administered by Canandaigua National Bank to build an addition. The Honeoye Public Library has applied for a NYS Construction Grant also.
Mrs. Young reinforced that the library is in need of wireless internet space. The library has also been working with the Canadice Historian and the Historical Society to share information.
The Town Board was thanked for their time and support.

2. Comprehensive Plan Update; materials previously distributed.
*Supervisor Singer mentioned that Table 5-1 refers to NYS taking over the land from the City of Rochester with the pilot program and it is not a pilot agreement. She will get the section of law to correct that portion. Also the plan amendment process was totally taken out and not sure why it would be removed. Mr. Mayhood will review his notes regarding that section.
*Councilman Virgil- Page 50 where it is mentioned about the proposed public water supply; it isn’t a proposal now and would be a good idea to update the wording. Also on page 18- why strike the check list?
*Councilman Virgil asked if any sections in Chapters 2-4 were rewritten, there are several grammatical errors. Mr. Mayhood indicated they were not rewritten. Supervisor Singer indicated it should probably be corrected at this point.
*Supervisor Singer- We need to keep each revision/update in its entirety. Mr. Mayhood indicated they are planning on having this revision all together and an electronic version also. Once a final draft is done it can be sent to Ontario County Planning and schedule a public hearing.
