In accordance with Firm policy, the purpose of this letter is to set forth our understanding as to the terms upon which we have been engaged. Should you have any questions in relation to this proposal or if you would like to discuss it further, please feel free to contact me or Nathaniel Nichols, Esq. MUTUAL RESPONSIBILITIES We will provide the legal services that, in our professional judgment, are appropriate for this matter and in accordance with applicable legal and ethical standards. You agree that representatives of the Town, specifically, the Town employees/staff, and their designees, will be reasonably available to confer with us upon request, will provide us with such documents and information as you may possess necessary to the representation, will disclose all facts and circumstances of which you are aware that may bear upon our handling of the representation, will promptly pay our fees in accordance with the terms of this letter and will otherwise assist our efforts as we reasonably request. It is understood that I will be the partner of this Firm primarily responsible for this engagement and Nathaniel Nichols, Esq. (Of Counsel) will work on the Town's matters regularly. N Q N d) II i Letter to Town of Wappinger Re: Engagement of Whiteman Osterman & Hanna LLP December 19, 2025 — Page 2 DETERMINATION OF FEES Our fees are determined, in accordance with applicable ethical rules, by considering a number of factors, including the amount of time that our lawyers, legal assistants and staff devote to the matter, the experience and expertise of the professionals who perform the services, the complexity, novelty, and difficulty of the questions involved, the magnitude of the matter, any time limitations or other special demands presented, and the results obtained. In light of these factors, our fees in this representation will be as follows. RETAINER For general representation, which we define as responding to routine telephone inquiries and correspondence, including any supporting research, attendance as requested at Board or other applicable meetings (including labor management meetings), attendance at Town Board hearings, legal opinions as requested by the Town Board, review of labor contracts, preparation of grievance or initial administrative agency responses, periodic written reports regarding public sector labor and employment issues, negotiation services involving the Town's bargaining units through impasse proceedings (excluding interest arbitration), assistance in drafting work rules and employer policies, two days of training per year for Town employees/officers on topics to be agreed upon at such time as the training is requested, and day-to-day counsel and advice, we agree to charge an annual retainer of $23,040 (equaling $1,920/month) for the 2026 calendar year (paid in equal quarterly installments of $5,760/quarter). It is our intention to maintain that retainer amount throughout the life of the engagement, unless the Town's usage significantly exceeds our expectations. In such a case, we will discuss and agree upon any proposed change in the retainer with you before it takes effect. Travel time to and from the Town will always be included in the retainer, regardless of whether the travel is associated with retainer or non -retainer work. Because we believe that a more efficient and effective relationship occurs when a client is not concerned about legal fees when he or she needs to seek the assistance of counsel, there will be no cap on the number of hours covered by the retainer. At the end of the first year, we will meet with you to discuss your usage and whether a different retainer amount should be considered prospectively. The retainer will be billed in equal payments quarterly and payable in advance. NON -RETAINER We exclude from the retainer all federal and state court litigation, and all administrative litigation, such as the prosecution of employee disciplinary proceedings on behalf of the Town, including Civil Service Law § 75 proceedings, arbitrations, Division of Human Rights proceedings, and PERB proceedings. Non -retainer work would also include matters of such unusual scope or depth that we mutually agree require extended time or research to complete. We would not undertake such a matter without your express approval. Letter to Town of Wappinger Re: Engagement of Whiteman Osterman & Hanna LLP December 19, 2025 — Page 3 On non -retainer matters, the time of partners and of counsel attorneys will be charged at a rate of $280 per hour and the time of associates will be charged at a rate of $225 per hour. Paralegal services will be billed at $125 per hour.

The deficiencies vary from; leaking manholes, missing manholes, separated joints, pipes with large holes in the bottom, manholes that surcharge do to ground water during rain events , roots and grease accumulations .The intent was that the Town paid for the inspection of the lines and Pavilion would implement the remedial actions. Pavilion has requested a meeting to review the report, which is positive. Our concern is that the report is technical and it would be best if at the meeting Pavilion has there own Engineer present who would understand the concerns and be able to implement the repairs.

Purpose and Legislative Intent The Town Board has formally determined that the Town's visual and historic environment directly impacts quality of life, property values, economic vitality, and the general welfare of residents. The purpose of § 240-35 is to prevent development, alterations, or exterior modifications that are visually incompatible, inappropriate, or detrimental to neighborhoods and historic resources, and to promote thoughtful, compatible development throughout the Town. Planning Board Authority Pursuant to § 240-35, the Planning Board is authorized to exercise architectural and historic district review powers, including the authority to approve, approve with conditions, or disapprove architectural plans related to: • Construction, alteration, addition, or restoration of buildings located within: o National Register, State Register, or locally designated historic districts o Properties containing structures listed on or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places o Locally designated or eligible historic structures • Site development plans (including commercial, industrial, multifamily, and similar uses) • Special permit uses • Signs • Architectural modifications, including rooftop equipment Review Process and Standards When architectural or historic district review is triggered, applicants may be required to submit detailed plans, elevations, site plans, renderings, and related documentation. The Planning Board may also conduct site visits and encourage preliminary design consultations. The Planning Board evaluates projects against detailed standards addressing, among other things, scale, massing, proportions, materials, textures, colors, roof design, setbacks, landscaping, signage, and architectural compatibility with surrounding buildings and the historic context. Findings and Subsequent Changes The Planning Board may issue findings of approval, approval with conditions, or disapproval. Additionally, any substantial change to the siting or exterior appearance of an approved project may be subject to further Planning Board review and reconsideration. Code Enforcement Coordination Given the breadth of this law and its applicability, it is important that the Office of Code Enforcement remain mindful of § 240-35 when reviewing permit applications, fielding inquiries, and determining whether Planning Board referral is required prior to the issuance of permits or approvals. Please do not hesitate to reach out should clarification or coordination with the Planning Board be necessary to ensure compliance with this section of the Town Code.

BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger as follows: Section L• Title. This Local Law shall be known and cited as "Local Law Amending Chapter 217 of the Town Code Amending Final approval of subdivision plat." Section IL• Legislative Intent. The Town Board of the Town of Wappinger hereby finds and declares that the timely and orderly review of subdivision applications is essential to protecting the public health, safety, and general welfare of the community. The intent of this Local Law amending Chapter 217 of the Town Code, relating to the final approval of subdivision plats, is to ensure that approved subdivision plans are acted upon within a reasonable and predictable timeframe, consistent with current planning standards, infrastructure capacity, environmental conditions, and community needs. At present, subdivision plats may receive final approval and remain inactive for extended periods of time—sometimes years or decades—before construction or implementation occurs. When such approvals are later reactivated, the underlying plans may no longer reflect contemporary zoning standards, environmental regulations, infrastructure conditions, orthe Town's adopted planning goals, including those set forth in the Comprehensive Plan. This practice undermines responsible land -use planning and can adversely impact roads, schools, utilities, emergency services, and neighborhood character. Accordingly, this Local Law establishes defined expiration deadlines for final subdivision approvals, modeled after and consistent with the timelines applicable to preliminary subdivision approvals. The law provides that final approval of a subdivision plat shall expire after a period of three (3) years unless substantial progress has been made or an extension has been duly granted. The Town Board further intends that applicants retain the ability to request extensions of final approval within the prescribed timeframe, subject to review and approval by the Planning Board. However, where final approval has expired after three (3) years, the applicant shall be required to return to the Planning Board for renewed review and approval under the then - current Town Code, standards, and policies. Section III: Addition of Section E. Expiration and extensions of final subdivision plat approval. § 217-14 Final approval of subdivision plat. A. Signing of plat. (1) The Planning Board will endorse approval on the plat after all conditions of the resolution have been satisfied. (2) Approval will be endorsed on the tracing cloth original of the plat. A copy of the plat to be signed is to be submitted to the Planning Board Secretary before the signing of the original. B. Plat void if revised after signature. No changes, erasures, modifications or revisions shall be made to any subdivision plat after approval has been given by the Board and endorsed, in writing, on the plat. In the event that any subdivision plat, when recorded, contains such changes, the plat shall be considered null and void. C. Filing plat with County Clerk. In accordance with Town Law § 276, Subdivision 11, the plat shall be filed with the Dutchess County Clerk within 62 days of the date of signing. The approval of any plat not so filed shall expire 62 days from the date of signing. [Amended 9-13-1999 by L.L. No. 6-1999] D. Submission of copies of filed plat.
