But is there anything we want to talk about before we talk about railings. 8 00:00:52.380 --> 00:00:54.870 Karen Tarapata: Okay, good. No burning questions just thought 9 00:00:55.470 --> 00:00:56.460 18456426153: I'd ask first, 10 00:00:57.300 --> 00:00:59.580 Karen Tarapata: Okay, you all got a little chart of 11 00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:01.290 Karen Tarapata: The furious dinners. 12 00:01:02.400 --> 00:01:07.200 Karen Tarapata: And we were really inclined I think Mike, correct me if I'm wrong. We were really 13 00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:07.890 18456426153: Inclined 14 00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:10.500 Karen Tarapata: To go with anchor fence, because he 15 00:01:10.500 --> 00:01:22.800 Karen Tarapata: Seemed like he was a good fabricator and he could do the job. And he said $14,000 which seemed very reasonable for a custom fabricated steel. 16 00:01:24.180 --> 00:01:32.910 Karen Tarapata: But steel means that you have to paint and even powder coated steel means you have to paint it within about a decade. 17 00:01:33.870 --> 00:01:49.140 Karen Tarapata: And when we got FESCO in and they were able to underbid with a an aluminum railing system and Mike and I both looked at the sample. That means it all never have to be painted. So it's a 18 00:01:51.420 --> 00:02:02.160 Karen Tarapata: Few thousand dollars less. And it is worth $3,000 less know to $2,000 last and it never has to be painted 19 00:02:03.270 --> 00:02:07.470 Karen Tarapata: So I'd recommend that we accept the proposal FESCO fence. 20 00:02:09.150 --> 00:02:14.100 lauriedodge: Can I just ask, so what it's going to be raw aluminum, so it'll be it'll look like metal 21 00:02:14.550 --> 00:02:15.810 Karen Tarapata: No. Right. 22 00:02:16.200 --> 00:02:17.130 18456426153: To match the 23 00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:18.210 Karen Tarapata: Trim of the building. 24 00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:21.660 lauriedodge: Here and I thought the steel could be powder coated as well. No. 25 00:02:22.170 --> 00:02:27.060 Karen Tarapata: Yes, but even powder coated steel will rust under the powder coating in a decade. 26 00:02:28.170 --> 00:02:30.570 Karen Tarapata: Of aluminum doesn't rust. Right. 27 00:02:31.260 --> 00:02:35.490 lauriedodge: I was concerned at all that it's flimsier than steel. 28 00:02:36.330 --> 00:02:39.450 Karen Tarapata: Well, Mike, you saw the sample. I thought it was pretty beefy 29 00:02:39.660 --> 00:02:42.930 michael esmay: Yeah, the state the samples was good. It was strong. 30 00:02:44.880 --> 00:02:46.650 Karen Tarapata: And I actually had him compare 31 00:02:46.650 --> 00:02:46.860 18456426153: It. 32 00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:55.320 Karen Tarapata: I had him showed him what the the samples. I got from the anchor fence guy as far as dimensions. So they were equivalent 33 00:02:56.340 --> 00:03:03.480 Karen Tarapata: Bids and at one time when we talked to anchor. They said they couldn't get the aluminum. 34 00:03:04.740 --> 00:03:06.720 Karen Tarapata: Systems, but 35 00:03:06.750 --> 00:03:10.500 Karen Tarapata: First go said, Yeah, we can. It might take two months but 36 00:03:10.500 --> 00:03:17.370 Karen Tarapata: We can definitely get it and also FESCO is willing to do the rail the wooden rail. 37 00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:18.720 lauriedodge: Remove removal 38 00:03:18.750 --> 00:03:19.410 lauriedodge: Yeah, so 39 00:03:20.130 --> 00:03:21.240 Karen Tarapata: Just to take it down. 40 00:03:22.380 --> 00:03:24.870 lauriedodge: And and now they're prevailing wage right 41 00:03:25.920 --> 00:03:26.280 lauriedodge: Yep. 42 00:03:26.910 --> 00:03:37.410 Karen Tarapata: Oh yeah, and I even double checked it even went back and went, no problems here.

That's, that's all low price. 44 00:03:43.410 --> 00:03:44.070 michael esmay: Seems low 45 00:03:44.790 --> 00:03:45.930 Karen Tarapata: It does seem low but 46 00:03:46.260 --> 00:03:49.110 Karen Tarapata: FESCO is very well regarded 47 00:03:50.100 --> 00:03:50.580 michael esmay: You know, like 48 00:03:50.610 --> 00:03:53.550 Karen Tarapata: I didn't D North Jersey fabricators, even though Jan 49 00:03:53.550 --> 00:03:54.720 18456426153: Fence recommended them. 50 00:03:54.810 --> 00:03:55.230 I don't 51 00:03:56.340 --> 00:03:58.830 Karen Tarapata: And we didn't come back with a sample after I 52 00:03:58.830 --> 00:03:59.820 Karen Tarapata: Asked them to 53 00:04:00.540 --> 00:04:02.430 Karen Tarapata: I can't go with something that might 54 00:04:02.670 --> 00:04:09.030 Karen Tarapata: Bend the first time somebody comes out at you know from a planning board meeting and sits on the rail.

Quite a bit. 159 00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:55.140 Karen Tarapata: For clarity and and bringing it up late and going back and forth between all the chapters, because I think our current zoning laws pretty confusing. 160 00:11:57.060 --> 00:12:00.300 michael esmay: Yeah, cuz it's grew like Topsy over the years. 161 00:12:00.330 --> 00:12:00.720 So, 162 00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:04.410 lauriedodge: Happens. 163 00:12:04.950 --> 00:12:19.230 Karen Tarapata: Is a comprehensive plan is just about ready to go back to rough and County Planning, you know we we accepted the work of the of the committee, and then we sent it to Rockland County Planning and they came back with 50 plus 164 00:12:20.340 --> 00:12:36.300 Karen Tarapata: request for clarification and we made those all those clarifications or we said why we thought what we had was good and now it's going to go back to them again and then when it goes back to them again, then it's also presented to the public again. 165 00:12:38.250 --> 00:12:40.110 michael esmay: I think, though it is, it's 166 00:12:41.130 --> 00:12:47.220 michael esmay: Should be said that some of their comments were good, and they were they were incorporated in the in the plan. 167 00:12:48.060 --> 00:12:48.690 Karen Tarapata: It's true. 168 00:12:49.350 --> 00:12:55.230 Karen Tarapata: It's true.
