soil testing consultant re: frank's nursery to meet with board

WRITTEN QUESTIONS FROM PUBLIC WILL BE ANSWERED AT MEETING WITH FRANK'S NURSERY SOIL TESTING CONSULTANT ON NOV 27 AT 9:30 am

DISCUSSION TO ADDRESS CONTAMINATION FINDINGS...CLEANUP PLAN

The town has retained a professional consultant - Woodward & Curran to conduct soil testing at the old Frank's nursery to determine the extent of contamination on the property and to recommend a remediation plan. Anthony Catalano of the firm will meet with the Town Board at an open session on Tuesday November 27th at 9:30 AM. Our meetings are steamed live on the internet: www.greenburghny.com and televised on the local Greenburgh access channels.

If you have any questions you would like to ask about the soil testing and analysis - please send it to vcarosi@greenburghny.com and copy me at pfeiner@greenburghny.com. All written questions will be answered at the meeting. We would appreciate it if you would send in your questions as soon as possible (hopefully before Thanksgiving) so Mr. Catalano will have sufficient time to review the questions and to respond.
On election day voters approved a lease agreement with Game On to build a sports facility at the old Frank's nursery. Cleanup of the property must take place before any facility opens.
