encl: Polakowski letter

July 5, 2022
To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Emily Polakowski, and I’m writing to express my interest in serving as a resident of the
town on the newly formed Ad Hoc Energy Task Force that was created at June’s RTM meeting.
) have lived in Waterford for four years following my graduation from physical therapy school. My
initial involvement in local politics was limited to my membership in the lacal League of Women
Voters (LWV) chapter as | believed in their mission and vatues. My involvement in this group mainly
consisted of timing several local debates and working at voter registration events. However, | was
fortunate enough fo win one of two national-level scholarships last year fo attend the UN Conference
of the Parties climate conference in Glasgow, Scotland as a representative of the national LWV. |
went into this conference knowing very little about climate change, but was able to hear individuals
from around the world talk about their daily struggles from climate change, what they're doing to
address and mitigate these impacts, and hear Al Gore encourage ail attendees that there is hope —
but we have to do something about it! | came back inspired and motivated to make a change. ! gave
several local talks to community groups and East Lyme High School's Ecology club, wrote an
editorial for The Day, and began a climate subcommittee in the local LWV chapter as well as my
church. | then began to consider how | could make an impression on a wider scale ~ the most
meaningful impacts are not created at the individual level, but rather require joint efforts to influence
societal level changes. .
I was then told about RTM’s upcoming decision on the Eversource natural gas contract. | was able
to give public comment at both meetings and participate in the referendum process. As | didn't feel
fully informed yet on the issues, { had several meetings and conversations with various town players.
Since February, I’ve met with Gary Schneider from Public Works, Abby Piersail from Planning, Rob
Brule from the Selectmen's office, and several members of the RTM. I’ve also contacted and spoken
with several RTM members - both Democratic and Republican - in an attempt te fully understand
these issues and to get a better picture of the town history and processes for moving forward.
| am thrilled that the town has decided to bring this committee together, and | am excited for all
information that can be gathered to move Waterford in the best direction possible, | believe that I'm a
good candidate for one of the resident pasitions due to my high level of interest and passion in this
topic area, my climate knowledge as an attendee of COP, my regular monitoring of state and
national energy strategies through my activity and involvement in several LWV groups and
committees, and the initiative that I've demonstrated through my meetings and communications with
various town leaders. | believe that this committee can be incredibly useful and make a huge
difference if itis empowered with bipartisan support that can work together to develap the most
effective, but still reasonable options for the town.
| thank you for your consideration and am happy to answer any questions that you may have for
me- thank you,
Emily Polakowski

Re: Seconn Fabrication LLC ~~

Dear Mr. Paul Goldstein:
Please be advised that this office represents Seconn Fabrication LLC (“Seconn”) in
connection with property it owns at 180 Cross Road, Waterford, Connecticut. Please accept this
letter as a request for the Town of Waterford to grant an exemption pursuant to Connecticut
General Statute 12-94e (“CGS 12-94e”) for its failure to file the requisite form to claim an
exemption from personal property taxes.
CGS 12-94e (see attached) permits a municipality, upon request from a taxpayer, to grant
an exemption according to criteria established by said municipality. According to CGS 12-94e,
said criteria may include: (1) a showing of hardship experienced by the taxpayer which may
account for its failure to claim the exemption and (2) a showing that granting the exemption
would provide a net benefit to economic development within the municipality.
In support of said request, | offer the following:
Connecticut General Statute 12-81(76) exempts businesses containing manufacturing
equipment from paying personal property taxes on said equipment. To be exempt, the business
must file an exemption form with the town assessor no later than November 1* of the previous
year.

For the past eighteen years, Seconn employed a comptroller who was responsible for
filing the exemption form. During those eighteen years, Seconn’s comptroller filed the
exemption form on time and Seconn received exemption status on its manufacturing equipment
located at its business at 180 Cross Road, Waterford, Connecticut.
Beginning in early 2020, due to COVID legislation and restrictions, said comptroller
worked remotely and later left the company. Mr. Marelli, the owner and operator of Seconn,
quickly hired a replacement, but said replacement went on maternity leave October 1, 2021. At
the time, due to the COVID pandemic, Mr. Marelli was unable to fill the position with a current
staff member or find a temporary replacement. Personnel challenges coupled with the remote
working environment required by COVID restrictions, led to Seconn’s failure to file the required
exemption form in a timely fashion. :
On July 5, 2022, Mr. Marelli, received a personal property tax bill for $115,864.44. He
immediately contacted his accountant who informed him the tax bill was for personal property
because Seconn failed to file the required exemption form by November 1, 2021. This came as a
complete surprise to Mr. Marelli as his personal property tax bill in previous years was
approximately $2,500.00.
It is the undersigned’s belief that CGS 12-94e was enacted to grant relief under exactly
these circumstances.
First, the loss of Mr. Marelli’s longtime comptroller while pandemic restrictions were in
place, in addition to the comptroller’s replacement leaving for maternity leave, caused a great
hardship to Seconn, which resulted in its failure to file the requested exemption form.
Further, Mr. Marelli employs over fifty people at Seconn Fabrication. His renovation of
the building located at 180 Cross Road, Waterford, has completely rehabilitated a once
abandoned manufacturing building. In addition, Mr. Marelli pays in excess of 125,000 dollars a
year in real estate taxes.
It’s my contention that Seconn Fabrication has satisfied the criteria established by CGS
12-94e in that it experienced a hardship which accounted for its failure to file the exemption
form and granting said exemption would provide a net benefit to the economic development in
the Town of Waterford.
If said exemption is granted, Mr. Marelli would be able to continue to grow his:
workforce and potentially increase the footprint of Seconn’s business, resulting in increased tax
revenue for the Town of Waterford.

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM TOWN OF WATERFORD
To: Robert Brule, First Selectman O
From: Gary J. Schneider, Director of Public Works XQ,
' Date: July 26, 2022
Re: Additional Appropriation — Cohanzie Tanks
The Town was. tequiréd to reniove the underground diesel-and gas ‘tanks at the
Cohanzie Fire House due to their end of service life approaching. In their place,
an above ground con-vault tank was installed.
The project was funded ($299;000) in FY21 for the design, permitting and
construction. Since this was a tank replacement with no known overfilled.or
breaches ofthe tanks or piping, ne environment monitoring or investigation of the
site was. placed in the funding request.
When the tanks and dispensers were removed, a small amount ef contamination
was found, and less than 25 tons (20. cubic yards) of contaminated soil was
removed from the Site.
Although all of the-contaminated soil has been removed from the site, according
State environment regulations, the owner must investigate to assuré there was
no release of diesel or gas to the groundwater.
The proposal from our consultarit is. attached. The Department is requesting an
appropriation of $38,500 to. complete the required work for line item 33021-
5S $07 35897-This number includes a 10% contingency in addition to the consultants
recommended budget. Asi noted in, the consultant's letter, drilling monitoring wells
has many variables ahd this budget is. an opinion of probable cost, based on
experience.
if it is determined that the Town must monitor the wells for any length of time, the
costs will be placed in the annual Buildirig Maintenance (Facility) budget. Other
sites that the Town must monitor long term are the Municipal Complex, Bus
Parking Lot and the closed Landfill.
We request to be-on.the next Board of Selectman agenda and forward to the
Board of Finance as necessary.

RE: Proposal for Professional Services, Monitor Well Drilling, Environmental
Supervision, Sampling and DEEP Reporting, Cohancie Fire House, Dayton Place,
Waterford, CT
Dear Mr. Schneider:
As requested, Lenard Engineering, Inc. (LE{) is pleased to submit this proposal for your
review and acceptance, State environmental regulations require that the diesel fuel
release we identified at the former diesel dispenser must be investigated to ensure that
there is no associated groundwater contamination, This proposal addresses the
installation of four groundwater monitoring wells, environmental oversite, soil and
groundwater sample collection and certified laboratory testing, and preparing a summary
report, suitable for submission to the CT DEEP.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
LEI will:
1)
2)
3)
Field mark-out proposed monitor well locations, and initiate a CBYD mark-out in
advance of well drilling,
Retain the services of an environmental drilling company to advance four borings
and to install four groundwater monitoring wells, Because the fire station is
located on top of a drainage divide, and because no groundwater was observed to
a depth of 12’ below grade during the underground tank removal activities, it is
not clear to us that groundwater will be present above the top of the bedrock
surface. Because of this concem we have requested that our drilling contractor be
prepared to complete four monitoring wells in the overburden material (2 day
effort) or to complete four bedrock wells by rock drilling methods (4 days effort).
LEI wil! provide a Licensed Environmental Professional (LEP) to supervise the
boring and well drilling activities, characterize the aquifer, collect soil samples
where appropriate, and to prepare boring lags.
