A
Opposed
okay.
Next
item
is
the
public
hearing
on
to
propose
modifications
to
the
agricultural
districts
numbers
two
and
three
and
Laura.
G
Is
here
some
part
of
the
annual
agricultural
District
review
process,
free
Parcels
for
consideration
for
just
districts?
One
was
withdrawn.
Two
were
found
by
the
AG
performance,
for
it
to
be
consistent
would
be
in.
The
district
program
includes
one
106
acre
sheets
and
vegetable
farm
performance
alert
Bell
on
one
livestock
operation,
women's
that
was
partially
in,
but
our
add
additional
85
Acres
C1
Acres.
G
F
A
Motion
is
there
a
second
okay,
a
second
all
in
favor
aye
any
opposed?
Thank
you.
Now.
The
third
item
is
being
tabled
or
withdrawn.
Okay,
they're
Adam
is
withdrawn.
The
one
on
algae,
Blossom,
Lake,
fourth,
item
authorizing
agreements
with
caliber
New
York
for
the
development
of
a
solar
array
at
897,
Waterford
Shaker
Road
in
the
town
of
colony.
D
D
D
Related
to
this
project,
progressing
to
this
point
where
we
finally
are
today
is
authorizing
a
power
purchase,
agreement,
site
lease
and
pilot
agreement
with
calibrant,
which
is
basically
the
implementation
arm
of
Siemens
for
the
solar
project
at
the
I'll
call
it.
The
radar
Tower
facility
adjacent
for
in
the
vicinity.
B
D
But
this
is
a
this-
is
an
exciting
project
for
us.
It's.
B
H
B
D
Power
solely
purchased
by
the
county
that
will
offset
around
15
10
to
15
percent
of
our
our
power
use.
It
started
as
a
bigger
project
and
we
had
to
scale
it
back
for
a
few
reasons,
but
still
a
substantial
project
as
we
look
to
Green
our
operations
and
move
down
the
path.
That's
obviously
a
priority
of
the
county,
Executives
and
the
legislature
to
the
county
is
sustainable.
D
He,
it
is
currently
a
net
cash
flow,
positive
project
to
the
county,
meaning
that
the
power
purchase
agreement
rate
that
we
are
agreeing
to
pay
to
calibrant
will
be
more
than
offset
over
the
five-year
term
or
25-year
term
the
agreement
by
the
credits
that
we
receive
back
from
New
York
state.
So
it's.
D
Money
Maker,
but
it
is
a
positive
and
that
positive
financially,
which
is
something
that
we
set
out
at
the
beginning
of
this
project.
To
say
it
was
a
priority
that
you
could
both
go
green
while
having
it
be
financially
advantageous
to
accounting.
Beyond
that,
there's
a
lot
in
here
so
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
A
S
Luke:
can
you
explain
this
handout
that
we
just
got
where
it
looks
like
we
haven't
yet
decided
on
these
three
reimbursement
options
or
how
we're
going
to
pay
is
that
yeah.
D
So
the
get.
D
D
Yeah,
if
you
go
to
the
final
page,
which
says
April,
25th
2023
on
it,
the
two
big
boxes
at
the
bottom
net
cash
flow
from
beater,
it's
a
0.13
and
then
the
next
one
says
0.16
are.
F
H
D
Greater
Net
Present
Value
to
the
county,
which
is
the
234
thousand
dollar
cash
flow
to
the
county
over
the
25-year
MPV.
The.
A
D
D
B
D
B
D
B
D
D
A
H
Just
to
better
understand
what
I'm
saying
at
the
these
like
when
you
say
2024-
and
you
have
this
dollar
amounts
in
bracket-
is
that
when
we
are
in
the
negative.
D
Who
act
is
positive?
Okay,
so,
depending
on
again.
I
D
To
do
the
the
escalators
because
it
starts
lower
and
that's
what
it
is
so.
A
Is
the
what's
the
negotiating
goal
to
maximize
Net
Present
Value
with.
B
D
A
A
J
Luke's
two
questions:
can
you
and
I
haven't
had
a
chance
to
look
at
it
all
over,
but
just
a
question?
Could
you
comment
on
the
what
the
protocol
or
understand
would
be
in
the
event
of
decommissioning?
What
are
the.
D
D
B
D
A
bond,
but
then
it
come
back
at
a
higher
PCA
rate.
We
are
obviously
a
being
a
county.
A
responsible
property
owner
Siemens
is
a.
D
B
B
J
That's
reasonable
and
then
just
one
other
question,
maybe
for
you
or
chairman
or
someone
who
knows
a
lot
more
about
this
than
I
do,
but
on
Page
Six
in
in
the
construction
and
installation
section
it
talks
about
if
it's
determined
that
it
it
cannot
be
that
the
the
array
cannot
be
or
cannot
or
will
not
be
connected
to
the
system
it.
It
relieves
calibrant
of
the
obligations
of
under
their
sole
discretion
as
to
whether
or
not
can
what.
J
B
D
D
Don't
want
to
be
on
the
hook
for
something
out
of
their
control
where
National
Grid
came
back
and
said
either
you
can't
interconnect
or
it's
going
to
be
a
billion
dollars.
A
A
Footprint
of
the
panel,
the
output
that
was
200
Watts
10
years
ago,
is
now
500
watts,
I
think
what
you're
going
to
see
is
just
like
with
conventional
power
plants.
Repowering
of
these
facilities,
where
you're
going
to
bring
in
new
panels,
maybe
upgrade
the
electronics
or
something
and
then
you're
going
to
have
a
field
array,
that's
producing
more
power
than
it
did
when
it
was
first
built
and
much
more
power
than
at
the.
D
F
F
F
J
B
D
This
is
accepting
350
000
Grant
in
support
of
the
project
we
just
discussed
yeah.
A
D
All
right
page
here
all
right,
as
indicated
in
the
title,
we
all
work
together
on
passage
last
year
of
these
data
Act,
which
called
upon
the
Department
of
Economic
Development
to
work
in
Partnership
to
develop
implementation
regulations.
That's.
D
Adopt
to
discuss
a
couple
key
Provisions
I
can
highlight
and
I'll
say
from
the
offset
the
there's
a
lot
of
intentionality
behind
sort
of
the
structures
that
are
set
up
here.
They.
D
D
B
D
D
D
Economic
impact
statements
completed
for
all
substantial
projects,
so,
as
we
did
with
a
project
like
Plug
Power,
requires
that
that
analysis
is
done
to
calculate
the.
B
D
Tax
new
property
tax
and.
D
K
A
I
think
the
legislature
should
have
two
I
think
I
think
either
me
as
chair
of
this
committee
or
a
designee
from
this
committee
should
also
serve
on
because
we're
dealing
with
green
stuff.
Here
this
is
the
green
stuff
committee
and
it
seems
to
me
that
that
would
be
warranted.
A
Given
you
know,
the
rest
of
the
committee
is
comprised
I
think
the
legislature
should
have
too
one
whose
background
like
mine
would
be
the
green
stuff,
but
it
could
also
be
someone
who's
appointed
from
the
committee
and
then
someone
from
Economic
Development
makes
sense,
but
anyway,
that's
that's
one
of
the
thoughts
I.
B
K
I
agree
with
you,
chairman
and
I'm,
going
to
add
to
that
I
think
there
should
be
someone
either
from
the
legislative,
Black
Caucus
or
some
Community
member
from
an
environmental
justice
Community
to
really
bringing
that
perspective
of
ensuring
that
we're
addressing
environmental.
B
B
D
A
One
other
sort
of
related
question
I'm,
not
sure
whether
it
is
or
not,
but
that's
why
I
want
to
ask
it
right
now.
I
had
I
had
four
comments
on
this.
The
first
one
that
I
mentioned.
Is
this
one
about
having
another
legislator
on
this
committee,
but
a
related
question
is
when.
A
Of
the
committee
and
frankly,
I
think
back
to
my
days
at
my
sort
of
one.
B
A
D
A
B
D
You
know
again,
this
is
first
and
foremost
in
Economic
Development
tool.
It
is
focused
on
on
creating
businesses
because
that's
a
huge
priority
of
executive
of
the
legislature,
but
it
is
so
so
there
is
a
a
place
for
that.
I
think,
and
perhaps
the
alliance
could
partner
with
an
entity
to
to
look
at
that,
but
we
generally
can
tell
we're
dealing
with
offshore
wind
projects
we're
dealing
with
green
hydrogen
products.
We
have
specialized
knowledge
in
these
industries
from
the
economic
development
perspective
perspective,
so
I
feel
fairly
comfortable
with
what
we
bring
to
the
table.
B
A
I
mean
I
sort
of
we
were
dealing
with
Innovation,
so
so
the
ways
the
innovative
business
fails
can
be
business
or
it
can
be
not
actually
understanding
the
market
that
they're
trying
to
get
into,
and
there
are
the
technical
issues
of.
Can
you
actually
hit
your
technical
targets
that
you
say
you're
going
to
hit
with
our
nice
service
support,
so
I
mean
I,
guess
partly
it
is
a
question
of
when
you
look
at
a
plug
power
case
or
a
supply
chain
for
the
the
wind
work
at
the
port.
A
Those
are
people
who
are
already
in
the
business
they're
already.
You
know
they're
proven
themselves
in
us
to
a
certain
extent,
but
when
you
look
at
how
the
stage
program
could
Embrace
newer
companies,
that's
where
is
a
little
bit
bigger,
because
now
you're
really
talking
about
the
kinds
of
companies
that
are
new,
we're
going
into
new
markets?
Let's
say
it's
new
new
HVAC
equipment
or
something
that's.
D
Think,
if
you,
if
you
frame
it
that
way
and
you're
bringing
in
that
type
of
knowledge,
to
contribute
to
the
review
of
a
startup,
then.
B
H
B
A
We
need
to
bring
in
some
outside
expertise
that
we
can
do
yeah.
Okay,
I
mean
I,
think
that
would
kind
of
be
stupid
to
not
do
that.
If,
if
there's
a
perception
that
that's
needed,
the
other
question
that
I
had
of
a
somewhat
of
a
technical
nature
is
somewhere
in
here
I.
Think
it's
near
the
end
of
The
Nine
Pages.
It
talks
about
the
recapture
benefits
policy.
B
B
A
F
A
K
A
B
A
D
G
K
D
K
Is
made
to
Target
disadvantaged
communities
and
so
I
think
it
is
important
to
have
that
perspective.
For
example,
let's
say:
there's
an
opportunity
to
replace
some
of
the
heavily
polluting
industries
that
are
polluting,
low-income
communities
in
this
County
with
you
know,
clean
energy,
where
you
can
create
jobs
for
people,
people
there
and
as
well.
As
you
know,
now
protect
People's
Health.
You
know
I
think
we
just
we
want
to
be
thinking
in
that
kind
of
way
and
it's
important
to
have
people
with
that
perspective.
K
D
K
K
Good
I'm
happy
to
happy
to
see
that
my
other
question
is
is
is
part
of
what
this
Sage
Act
is
going
to
do
is
to
to
bring
in
grant
funding
as
well.
Will
there
be
people
looking
because,
with
the
inflation
reduction
act,
yeah.
K
J
B
B
A
A
J
D
J
J
J
Yeah,
so
so
I
would
very
much
support
that,
however,
requiring
or
mandating
that
one
of
the
members
or
some
member
of
the
legislature,
being
a
member
of
a
particular
group
or
a
particular
race
I
think
is
appropriate.
Nor
would
I
think
would
would
stand
constitutional
scrutiny
if
we,
if
we
require
membership
based
on
race,
so
I.
A
E
Well,
you,
the
legislature,
the
committee
members
cannot
unilaterally
change
a
submission
from
the
executive,
so
you
can
make
that
recommendation
to
us
and
to
the
executive,
and
we
can
follow
up
as
staff
starting
tomorrow,
but
it
needs
to
be
passed
out
as
it
is.
It
can't
be
changed
by
the
legislature.
H
B
A
I
mean
I,
I,
understand,
I,
think
what
Jeff
is
saying
is
we
have
to
be
careful
about
how
we
verbalize
it,
because
we
don't
want
to
go
against
any
laws
or
anything,
but
we
do
have
a
sense
that
we
should
have
more
representation,
I
I,
hope.
The
committee
is
in
agreement
with
me
that
someone
from
this
committee
should
have
representation,
because
we
are
the
green
initiatives
committee,
but
do
we
you
know
how
far
do
we
go
with
a
recommendation
that
is
not.
B
E
Mean
everyone
can
honestly
just
email
me
afterward
and
let
me
know
what
their
feelings
are.
It's
it's
not
something
that
needs
to
be
decided
right
now,
because
it's
not
binding
on
anyone.
I
mean
anything.
You
recommend
does
not
have
to
be
accepted,
so
we
can
certainly
negotiate
that
further
with
the
executive
staff,
but.
