(2) Application of special use regulation.
(a) Utility distribution facilities, except those approved prior to the effective date of this section, may continue to be used unless in conformity with these regulations. No utility distribution facility shall hereafter be erected, moved, reconstructed, changed or altered unless in conformity with these regulations. No existing structure shall be modified to serve as a utility distribution facility unless in conformity with these regulations.
(b) Applicants proposing to co-locate on a previously approved utility distribution facility do not require a special permit. They are, however, subject to site plan review in accordance with Subsection I(8). The Zoning Board of Appeals (the Board) may require the applicant to submit any of the items under Subsection I(3)(a) below as part of the site plan review process.
(c) These regulations shall apply to all property within the following districts: CA, CAMP, and I Districts. Utility distribution facilities shall be specifically excluded from all other districts.
(d) These regulations shall not apply to residential standby generators designed to be used infrequently during time of emergency.

(b) If an applicant proposing to share use of an existing utility distribution facility submits complete and satisfactory documentation in accordance with Subsection I(3)(a) above, and if modifications indicated according to Subsection I(3)(a) are deemed insignificant by the Board, after the Board conducts a hearing and complies with all SEQRA provisions, the Board shall grant a special permit without further review under this section.

This distance shall be determined by the Board in consultation with the applicant. The report shall outline opportunities for shared use of these existing facilities as an alternative to a new facility.

Lakewood Busti Police Chief Chris DePonceau reported 688 incidents from October 4, 2021 to November 1, 2021; there were 204 area business checks, 27 accidents, 20 shoplifting, 95 vehicle stops, 23 warrants – applied for or served.
Highway Superintendent Greg Johnson introduced Steve McKinsey, newly hired Parks Department employee. Superintendent Johnson noted he contacted Five Star Equipment to ask if the current strike will delay the new excavator being delivered in January and was told it should affect the January 2022 delivery.
Superintendent Johnson noted the Highway Equipment plan had scheduled to purchase a new truck for the Highway Superintendent in 2022, transfer the current truck to the Parks Department, and trade-in the Parks Department truck. He received quotes for the new truck, there were two quotes for ½ ton trucks and one for a ¾ ton truck. He would prefer the new truck be a ¾ ton with a plow, which is what most Highway Superintendents are currently driving. All quotes received are under “State Bid”: 1. Shults Auto Group – 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTD 4WD Double Cab 147” LT w/1LT w/options & destination charge = $49,545 and 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500HD 4WD Crew Cab 159” LT w/options & destination charge = $52,850 (neither quote included any trade-in) and 2. Dave Warren Auto Group – N2021 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4×4 Quad Cab 6’4” Box w/ 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 $8,750 trade-in = $53,215.43 and w/2018 Chevrolet Truck Silverado 1500 Regular Cab Work Truck 4WD $25,750 trade-in = $23,078.83. Discussion followed regarding trading in both the ’03 1 ton truck and the ’18 Parks Dept.

Upon roll call vote, all aye, carried.
Discussion returned to the purchase of a new Highway Superintendent truck. Superintendent Johnson stated he would like to include a 8.5 – 9 foot V plow with the truck purchase. Having a plow on the truck would allow the Superintendent to do some snow cleanup when he is out checking on the road conditions.
Councilman Gustafson moved the following resolution which was duly moved by Councilman Hanson:
RESOLVED, the Town of Busti accept the bid from Shults Auto Group to purchase a 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500HD 4WD Crew Cab 159” LT with the trade in of the ’03 1 ton truck and the ‘18 ½ ton Parks Dept truck with a net cost of $18,000 plus the cost of a V plow of approximately $6,000.
Upon roll call vote, all aye, carried.
Code Enforcement Officer Jeff Swanson reported he was at the office when Jamestown Heating and Air came to see what was causing the odor in the courtroom/boardroom. They discovered there is a leak in the garage metal and the insulation is now soaked. They are coming back to look at the situation a little further and check the condition of the plywood. Councilman Hanson suggested they look at the best solution to correct the issue for now and do a final repair in the spring. CEO Swanson noted he sent the board an email related to DEC wetlands not the flood elevation. There is property for sale on Creek Road that had a potential buyer and the buyer’s attorney contact CEO Swanson about having a “wetlands check” completed. CEO Swanson looked at the FIRM maps and GIS website. It was his understanding that there was a 100’ check zone for any development near wetlands. The documentation that was submitted for the Creek Road property shows that there is a 500’ check zone for wetlands, this will have a huge impact on the development of property near the wetlands. DEC would have to come out and check the area before any development could take place. Attorney Seachrist researched the subject prior to tonight’s meeting, the town is required by law to have the flood plane damage prevention plan. He suggested the board look at the current law and see if it could be amended in any way that would serve the purpose and ease up some of the Code Enforcement requirements. Discussion followed. Attorney Seachrist suggested the town add place for an applicant to check off that they have received a DEC verification prior to building or developing a property.
Attorney Seachrist reported the Cottage Park Maintenance, he is hoping to file this within the next couple of weeks.
Town Clerk Nygren shared that she, Councilman Andrews, and Highway Superintendent Johnson met with Donna Thompson, Integrated Benefits, to discuss the various Health Insurance 2022 plans and rates. They reviewed the plans from Univera, Blue Cross Blue Shield of WNY, and Independent Health. The town currently uses Univera, however, their rate had the largest rate increase. Independent Health had the lowest rate, but their plans didn’t compare to the current plans. Blue Cross Blue Shield of WNY had the mid-range rate and offered similar plans to what the employees have now. Also, Blue Cross Blue Shield is recognized nationwide while the other two are primarily accepted in WNY with a little Pennsylvania coverage. Therefore, the Health Insurance Committee is recommending the Town of Busti contract with Blue Cross Blue Shield of WNY for the 2022 Employee Health Insurance. The committee suggests offering the Gold Complete plan with a $600 deductible for single and $1,200 deductible for all other levels and the 7100 EX plan with a $1,400/$2,800 deductible. They also recommend the town continue to pay 90% of the plan cost and a $300 single HRA/$600 employee-child, employee-spouse, and family HRA.
Supervisor Robbins moved the following resolution which was duly moved by Councilman Gustafson: RESOLVED, the Town of Busti offer Blue Cross Blue Shield of WNY Insurance Gold Complete and 7100 EX plans to the eligible employees. The town will pay 90% of the monthly premium and a HRA in the amount of $300 for single and $600 for all other plans.
Upon roll call vote, all aye, carried.
