Restore NY Funding Application for Dover Knolls’ Demolition Proposal
May 4, 2009
Please see the attached Letter to the Dover Town Board, submitted last week in connection with a Board meeting dealing with the Town’s proposed Restore NY funding application. The application is for funding to demolish two buildings on the Dover Knolls property. It was read into the record by Town Board Member Richard Hawthorne.
CRGD reiterates an ongoing concern, stated previously during the Scoping Sessions and during Town Board discussions of the Stimulus Funds Application, over the possibility of on-site burial of C&D and therefore the possible contamination of our water supply. We believe that the Town should maintain control and supervision over the expenditure of all Restore NY funds obtained in connection with the demolition of buildings: ”the Town Board can and should insist that any Restore NY funds obtained be spent to ensure that all demolition project materials be taken off-site and that nothing be left on-site or back-filled in the tunnels.”
