OLD BUSINESS:
Consideration to Modification to Section 23-7 of the Town Code -Permitted Signs
Chair Resnick reminded the Board that this issue had been previously discussed primarily
regarding the real estate signs and the request was turned down. Chair Resnick asked the
Board would reconsider and he stated that he has not had contact with any realtors. The
Chair feels that allowing an open house signs only from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday along
AlA since it affects real estate values in the Town, affects every citizen, affects real
estate prices and may/may not affect the revenue for the Town. Board Member Diliberto:
It clutters the Town and should not be allowed. Secretary Colarullo: Agrees with Mr.
Diliberto. Board Member Halpern: Remain as status quo. He would like the residents to
be able to sell their property without making the Town an eyesore.

Villa Costa Condominium
The Board had taken action on the case of Villa Costa. Town Manager Dale Sugerman
informed the Board that action was taken on an item that was not agenized so that is a
problem since this is a quasi judicial board. Chair Resnick noted that he was advised that
the matter was resolved and there is no longer a violation. Town Attorney Corman stated
that from a legal perspective the matter is effectively resolved and the inspector has
determined the violation has been cured. It is the Town Attorneys' suggestion that the
item be heard at the next meeting so that who ever may have an interest in the matter may
appear before the board.
NEW BUSINESS:
Secretary Colarullo questioned if there are changes as to where vehicles are parked and if
the Commission has responded to that issue. Town Manager. Sugerman reported that the
Town Commission directed the Town Attorney to draft language regarding obstructions
on AIA.
ADJOURNMENT:
MOTION: Board Member Halpern moved to adjourn the meeting at 10:15 a.m. Board
Member Diliberto seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
