4 — PATENT TRADER Saturday, Jan. 27,1973 Environmental unit created By MYMA ANDERSEN SOMERS — An Environ mental Protection Committee whose first task will be to draft a wetlands ordinance for rec ommendation to the town board was created by Somers Conser vation Advisory Council Wednesday. Attorney Theodore Daly stressed the high priority that should be given to the study of the wetlands problem. Mr Daly, legal adviser for the CAC, said, \This area is one in which we should be most concerned Once we've lost a wetland, it cannot be recovered.\ Mr Daly advised the new committee to consult with town officials and make a thorough field inves tigation before attempting to draw up a wetlands proposal for legal analysis. CAC Chairman Steven Bradley said part of the task in preparing a wetlands ordinance would be to draw up a wetlands map Mr Bradley also sug gested obtaining model ordi nances of this kind from neigh boring towns and seeking the advice of other conservation councils. In addition to the wetlands or dinance, the new committee, chaired by George Andersen, will look into the feasibility of incorporating an environ mental impact 'requirement into present zoning ordinances. Such a requirement does ap pear in zoning ordinances in other states, advised Mr. Daly. Mr. Andersen, an environ mental consultant in New York City, stressed the importance of Oettinger predicts passage of addition CHAPPAQUA — Town resi dents outside the Village of Mt. Kisco will probably approve $200,000 for an addition and renovation to New Castle Highway Garage Thursday, Supervisor George F Oettinger predicts. Voters will go to town hall from noon to 9 p. m Thursday to cast their ballot on the pro posed 4,500 square foot addition and renovation of the existing Hunt Lane garage opened in 1958 Supervisor Oettinger said eight pieces of equipment cannot be housed in the present garage. This makes it harder to clear the town's snow and ice covered roads because it takes longer to start the engines and attach the plows. Also, a pit to service equipment is inade quate and unsafe. New Castle's Town Club sup ports approval of the garage addition designed by Architect Donald Whelan of Weiss, Whelan, Edelbaum and Web ster eventually requiring an envi ronmental impact statement, especially from large scale de velopers, that would point out such problems as water, air and noise pollution. Mrs. Marilyn Fourgeot, CAC member, expressed the hope that more funds might be allocated to the council to' permit it to hire professional help, if necessary, when inves tigating ecological problems of the town.

Ralph 7. famed CHAPPAQUA - Ralph Thomas Walker, a resident of Walkerburn, his Roaring Brook Road home with a famous garden located on an old apple orchard, and active participant in community affairs, died Wednesday at home. He was 83. years old. Mr. Walker committed sui cide, Westchester County Medi cal Examiner Dr. Henry Siegel said. A retired architect, Mr. Walker was named by the American Institute of Archi tects in 1957 to receive a special Centennial Medal. He was hailed as \the architect of the century.\ Earlier he had won an accolade from the late Frank Lloyd Wright as \the only other architect in America \ When the AIA gave Mr Walker, a member of the New York architectural firm of Voorhees, Walker, Smith & Smith, its award, AIA Pres ident Leon Chatelain Jr said it was \for the unstinting use of his talents and energies in many fields of public service.\ Mr. Walker, a former AIA president, \has made the most significant contribution of any living American architect to humanity and the planning of human environment,\ Mr Cha- telian said. Locally Mr Walker's firm designed the 1952 addition to Chappaqua Library. The archi tect was the late James Ren- wick Thomsen In May, 1966, Mr Walker told a Chappaqua Chamber of Com merce meeting, \I have lived in Chappaqua 43 years (49 years at his death) and have survived — that is what I want as my epi taph \ During those years as a Chappaqua resident, Mr Walker was an active and outspoken critic of his town. He was a trustee of Chap paqua library from 1934 to 1948. He donated many books from his large personal collection to the Oxford English Dictionary Mr Walker was a member of the New Castle Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals He claimed to have written the town's first zoning ordinance As a resident of Roaring Brook Road, across from Reader's Digest, the architect opposed two proposed 50-foot il luminated signs bearing the company's name In a letter to the Zoning Board of Appeals dated July 18, 1956, he said, \I deplore the fail ure on the part of the Digest, after all these years of con forming to the law, to maintain an attitude of friendliness and dignity within the community. For the last two Christmas seasons there have been placed across the entire building a very objectionable so-called Christmas greeting which more closely resembles a billboard on Broadway than one repre senting a dignified editorial of fice long helping to preserve the rural character of the com munity in which it exists.\ He also said the signs would CARGAIN CLARK FUNERAL HOME serving all foiths in their time of need 628-5655 ROUTE 6 MAHOPAC, N.Y. A \Bronxize\ the community. He called Roaring Brook Road \a disgrace that ends in a dump. The town board doesn't care, but how can Reader's Digest be so insensitive?\ A proposed war memorial to 17 Chappaqua men killed in war — 14 in World War II, two in World War I and one in the Korean war — also became controversial for Mr. Walker. In 1962, at the request of the American Legion, he drew plans for an eight and a half foot marble shaft at the Chappaqua Railroad Station. But the Legion raised only $1,200 of the hoped for $8,000 and switched to a plan by Rich ard Moeller of Ossining, a builder of cemetery monu ments.
