Re: Hughes Holdings of Dutchess LLC Sewer, Water and Sidewalk Easements

Dear Mayor Smythe:

Hughes Holdings of Dutchess LLC (“Hughes”) has received conditional site plan approval for the construction of a multi-family development and associated improvements comprised of three two-family dwellings, totaling six residential dwelling units (the “Project”) located in the NMU District in the Village of Red Hook on property identified as Tax Grid No. 134801-627210-388518. In connection with this Project Hughes is required to grant water, sewer and sidewalk easements to the Village.

Enclosed please find a water easement, sewer easement and sidewalk easement provided by Hughes with associated TP-584s. We have reviewed the easements and find them acceptable. We understand that Robert Flores has also approved their form and substance.

If the Village Board of Trustees finds them acceptable, it can adopt the enclosed resolution to authorize you to execute the easements and related forms.

If you have any questions on this matter, please feel free to reach out for discussion.

Sincerely,
