A brief discussion of options.
It was the consensus of the commission to submit an interim report to the Borough of the
sites they've identified, the sites they want tested, and to expedite acquisition of the Coast
Guard site. They would also like to explore Salonie Creek as the 2nd most favorite site
which the Borough owns.
Ogle stated Community Development will generate the report and have it ready for their
review at the next meeting.
Discussion on volume of rock.
B. Discussion of Coast Guard divestiture.
CARVER stated at the last meeting they discussed the Coast Guard property and they had
agreed that it would be in the Borough's interest to aggressively explore acquisition of
this property.
OGLE said Bud Cassidy has sent formal letters to the Coast Guard stating that if they
ever divest of this property the Borough is interested in it. It will depend on ifit's a clean
site. It just depends on how quickly and aggressively they follow through with the
divestiture. Ogle has spoken to Terry Michalski of the Coast Guard and was told the
Federal government has first option to buy, and then the State. If the State gets it then the
Borough has made it clear in writing they are interested.
Discussion of Coast Guard divestiture.
It was the general consensus of the commission that this is the best site because of the
quality of material, accessibility, and the lack of impacts.
