Communications, Petitions & Requests Mayor Gandolfo was in receipt of a copy of a letter written to Donald Stever by the District Manager of the Westchester County Department of Conservation regarding the proposed changes in the Wetlands/V7atercourse Protection ordinance that the Village had adopted. She asked that at some point the Board should invite Mr. Stever to sit with the Board at a work session to discuss these proposed changes. The Mayor was in receipt of a letter from the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation notifying us that they are pleased to approve the application of the Village of North Tarrytown Conservation Advisory Council for partial reimbursement of expenses at the initial reimbursement rate of 15% of whatever money is spent of the $13,200 that the Environmental Council has applied for.

The Mayor stated that these were not comments and she would not get into a public discussion regarding this. Mr. Patten questioned the Mayor's car telephone bills and suggested that in light of the economy, there should be a moratorium on spending. Armando Galella addressed the Board suggesting that they reconsider the possible purchase of the burned out building on Beekman Avenue for use as a parking lot. The building should not be taken off the tax rolls and more people should not be left homeless. I Mayor•s Report 8 The Mayor has contacted the manager of Celebrity newspaper with regard to complaints by residents that the newspaper is being thrown onto their property and sidewalk. He has fired two delivery men and has hired new ones; he will also have people inspect the deliveries. If anyone wishes to discontinue delivery of the paper, they can call 1-800-942-1010 or they can contact the manager at 694-5127. There will be no Planning Board meeting in January; the Zoning Board will meet on January 16 at 8:00 PM. The Mayor would like to make a recommendation to the Board during executive session regarding the appointment of an Acting Village Justice. The deliberations on the disciplinary hearing regarding the police officer will be continued next Monday, January 14 at 5 PM. Mayor Gandolfo thanked the plant manager of General Motors for his help in obtaining a generous donation of $100,000. from General Motors towards our beautification program. We havej received the first installment of $25,000. The building on Beekman Avenue has been examined by our engineers) and they have determined that the damage is more than 50% and after a basic survey, it has been determined that approximately 44 parking spaces can be made on that property and in the back yards of the other properties. The appraiser and the Building Inspector will give the Board an estimate on what the property is worth and how much it would cost to erect a parking lot. The Mayor has written to Mrs. Fisher to see if she is interested in selling this property. 2 �Administrator's Report The Administrator stated that the resolution that was passed recently with regard to Drug Free School Zone, we have been waiting for the signs and they will be installed shortly. The Administrator stated that in response to Trustee Rey • s request for the possible erection of flashing yellow lights on County House Road, Nick Morabito has quoted us a price of $1820. which the General Foreman stated is a very good price. Therefore, the Administrator recommended that the Board authorize the installation of these lights. After some discussion on whether the lights or grooving of the road is the best , the Mayor stated that the grooving could not be done in the winter but should be done in the Spring in addition to the flashing lights being erected now. Trustee Rey moved that the Board authorize the erection of the yellow flashing lights on County House Road for a price of $1820, seconded by Trustee Marren. After more discussion on where the lights would be erected, motion was carried 5-0. The Administrator asked that the resolution awarding the air conditioning bid be tabled until the next meeting until he consults with the engineer. He also stated that the resolution requesting the loan of eleven voting machines be changed to twelve. Trustees' Reports Trustee Alter gave an update on recreation programs; the Outing Club will be meeting to discuss hiking and canoe trips for the Spring, golf lessons are now being organized, registration is now being taken for aerobics, there is men's open gym, youth hockey, youth open basketball and a mother/toddler will begin this Friday morning at the Warner Library. The new brochures have been mailed out and he thanked all the advertisers who participated in this brochure. Trustee Cicchetti reported that the Village has been trying to improve our financial status outside of tax increases. One way was the adoption of a computer system which would be operated by the Village to collect fines in the court with an average savings of about $23,000. a year, revising water bill collection system by increasing the penalty rate of 1% to 5% and reducing the grace period from ninety days to thirty days. In the Engineer's report regarding the new filtration system, we will not know until December of 1991 whether the Village will be made to make any changes, therefore he recommended to the Board that we postpone any further discussion on financing and surcharges or any additional costs to the Village until we know what we must do, if anything. 3 �13T The audit report for the 1989-90 tax year is complete; there is a surplus of $61,850. which will be applied to the 1991-92 year to offset some of the property tax losses due to assessment reductions. The Mayor stated that before the Board can approve the auditors report, she has asked the auditor to add an amendment to the audit naming any additional law suits the Village is involved in. Trustee Marren also requested that the letter from Mr. DeMelia be corrected to reflect accurate dates and time of the audit. Trustee Rey commended the North Tarrytown Fire Department for their quick response and dedication to the fire which erupted Christmas evening at 7 8 Beekman Avenue and the next day at al Clinton Street fire. By keeping them under control, the fires were prevented from spreading to other buildings. He also thanked' all the other fire departments who responded to mutual aid. Trustee Rey commented that when there is an accident and the ambulance is summoned to transport the injured to the hospital, no fault insurance pays the ambulance service and he would like to sit down with Counsel and the Fire Wardens to explore the opportunity to increase revenue to the Fire Department and the Village as a whole. Trustee Rey will advise David Cappello, Second Assistant Chief,that regarding his memo to take fire apparatus and fire chief's cars to the convention in June; he wishes to look into this request further before approving it. Trustee Hyland entered the police report into the record. This Wednesday recycling will resume and when we have a snow or ice storm, he told residents they must place their garbage at the curb unless paths are shoveled and sanded. Christmas trees are being picked up at the curb and are being chipped to be added to our compost. The parking lot on Cortlandt Street is ready and flyers are being put out informing the residents. Trustee Hyland also commended the fire department for a job well done. m With regard to the fire on Clinton Street, the Code Enforcement! Officers had tried for months to get into this building but could! not; that is why code enforcement is so important. I Trustee Marren reported that on the Planned Community Living Group Home at 1 Evergreen Way, the Village was notified at the end of December that the agency has declined the alternative house on Cedar Street; the Village has not received the Commissioner's judgement on whether or not the home should be located here. A brief discussion ensued on the attorney fees related to this proposed group home. Trustee Treacy commented that there has been too much money spent and felt that it was futile from the onset to even go forward and hoped that in the future the Board could 4 �i -?30- receive at least a ballpark figure for anything like this before the Board proceeds. Trustee Marren stated that our own attorney had also put in many hours and this kept the other attorney's fees lower than they might have been. Trustee Marren stated the whole Board did agree to go forward with the appeal at the time. Trustee Treacy reported that he has reviewed our ethics code and commented that it is very inadequate. He has been reviewing different ethics codes throughout the County and the NYS Public Officers Law and Trustee Treacy moved to call for a Public Hearing for a proposed new ethics code for February 5, 1990 at 8:00 PM, seconded by Trustee Cicchetti and motion carried. The Board will review and discuss this further at the next work session. Trustee Treacy wanted as many employees as possible to receive a copy of this proposal to review before the public hearing. He then read the preamble to the Ethics Code. Trustee Treacy gave an update on labor negotiations: Union is heading towards interest arbitration and municipal union is in mediation now. The PBA the new Mayor Gandolfo commented that there was a group of residents from 146-148 Cortlandt Street present who were protesting Judge Frascati's ruling that they must vacate this building in ninety days. Miguel Jimenez spoke on their behalf and asked the Village for their help; he stated that Peoples Westchester Savings Bank has taken over the building,the building is salvageable and the' bank is making every effort to have the buildings repaired. The Mayor stated that she has spoken with Mr. Olsen, the President of Peoples Bank and he indicated that they would be very willing to sit down with the Building Inspector and the tenant's attorney, Mr. Friou to work something out so that the apartments are fixed and no one is evicted in ninety days. Mr. Friou, the attorney must work this out with the Village court. Resolutions-Attached Old Business Discussion ensued again on the validity of Stiloski's insurance certificate. Trustee Marren moved that we suspend the Village's operation with Stiloski Towing until the contract issue is resolved and in the interim we call Alex's Towing effective immediately, until towing contract is awarded, seconded by Trustee Treacy. After more discussion ensued, motion carried 5-1 with Trustees Marren, Treacy, Cicchetti, Rey and Alter voting YES and Trustee Hyland voting NO. The Administrator will get Alex's certificate of insurance back from Mr. Gregory the next morning. Trustee Rey asked that we look into the terms of the lease that we have regarding the copy machine in the police department. 5 �I Trustee Marren asked if we have any updated bills and a projected final cost on the sidewalk project. Trustee Treacy stated that some bills have been received and are being reviewed; the good news is that it seems we will be coming substantially under budget. New Business The next Board meeting will be held on January 22, 1990 and the work sessions will be held on January 15th and January 29th. Public Comments Chick Galella asked about the cost of the prosecuting attorney in the DiCairano trial. John Hughes, Jr. stated that Mr. Gilleece was paid approximately $5000. and he also commented that it would be a conflict of interest if he as Village Attorney was hired to prosecute. Mr. Galella felt that the Village would have saved money if the District Attorney had investigated the officer instead. He also questioned the cost of lawyers in the police contract negotiations; the Mayor stated it was $210. per hour. He also asked when the audit would be available to the public; the Mayor stated it should be approved by the next meeting. He asked if a resolution was needed to buy the burned out property on Beekman Avenue; the Mayor stated that she has just made an inquiry but no action has been taken. Don Caetano asked why the owners on Beekman Avenue did not have to pay their share of the cost of sidewalk repairs. Trustee' Treacy stated that this was a beautification program to improve the business area which was funded half by the County and was not the same as requests by residents for repairs. He also asked why our attorney could not handle the matter regarding the proposed group home; Trustee Marren stated that it was important to have the best lawyer experienced in this field and that our attorney also did alot of work for us. Mario Belanich asked if benches were going to be replaced on the Avenue after the revitalization was complete; Trustee Treacy responded yes. He also asked if a public hearing was required to put the flashing yellow lights on County House Road; the Mayor commented no. He also requested that the towing company from out of town not be considered and we patronize our own companies. Mr. Galella asked what the difference was on the two bids that were submitted for tree service contracts. Trustee Rey read the bids aloud. Walter Gregory commented that the flashing lites on County House Road was a good idea, but the grooves were also needed. 6 �Steve Serina wanted to know what the status of the full stop sign at Bedford and Sleepy Hollow Road; the Administrator stated that this was a state road and the state has denied this request stating that it would be more hazardous. There being no further comments, the public comment section was closed. Trustee Hyland moved to adjourn to executive session to discuss personnel matters,seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried. Executive Session A brief discussion ensued on the appointment of an Acting Village Justice. Mayor Gandolfo asked that the Board approve her appointment of Robert Donnelly, a NY City Attorney, as Acting Village Justice. She commented that there was no local attorney who was willing to accept this position because in doing so, they would not be able to take any cases heard in our Village court. The Board unanimously approved this appointment. Discussion ensued on whether the firemen who fought the big fire on Christmas night and did not come to work the following day, should be charged a sick day. Trustee Hyland moved not to dock the firemen for that day, seconded by Trustee Rey and motion did not carry with Trustees Hyland and Rey voting YES, and Trustees Cicchetti, Alter, Marren and Treacy voting NO. Discussion ensued on whether to give 4% retroactive pay to the municipal union employees who are still in negotiations, since these employees will most likely receive more than the 4% when negotiations are completed. Trustee Treacy moved to give these employees 4% retroactive pay for the 1989-90 year on the condition that this meets with the approval of the union representative, seconded by Trustee Cicchetti and motion carried 5-1 with Trustee Hyland voting NO.

There were several comments from the public regarding this new proposed code. Mr. Donovan commented that he did not agree that we needed an Ethics Board to oversee our elected officials and others; he felt it was just another level of bureaucracy. Mr. Ugo Checchi felt this code would be too restrictive. Eileen Meade wanted to know why an Ethics Board was needed since everyone has their own code of ethics. A discussion ensued among the trustees, old code is very sketchy and new one is very clear and more specific. Trustee Treacy stated that there are many grey areas in decision making and the State level mandates an Ethics Board. Sometimes an employee needs direction on whether a decision is a conflict of interest, but the Board of Trustees is the ruling board. Mr. Galella felt that if this code was adopted it would be difficult to get volunteers to serve on different committees. Trustee Marren stated that the Board of Trustees needs more time to review this proposed code.

With regard to revitalizat-*on of Beekman Avenue, he commented more, parking is needed and a more intense anti-litter campaign. Chick Galella suggested that the Board not pass the towing contract resolution until the storage problem is solved. Trustee Marren also stated that this contract should not be awarded until this issue is resolved. Mr. Galella also asked if handicapped parking spaces had been removed on the Avenue; the Mayor stated this was not the case. He questioned why we are picking up the garbage from Phelps.

Discuss in work session. The Administrator reported that the Governor has presented his proposal for the State budget. The most significant effect is the reduction in state revenue sharing by 78% for towns and villages. He asked that the resolution regarding legislative proposal be amended to include a request that revenue sharing not be cut. He received the sales tax resolution from Westchester County Officials Association proposing to increase the sales tax to 7.25% for all towns and villages; a portion of that revenue will be prorated and distributed to each town and village.

Mayor Gandolfo stated this is a resolution to be sent to our state representative, stating that we are in support of the sales tax being raised to 7.25%. Trustee Cicchetti stated that last year, we passed a resolution similar to this one when the legislature made a request based on the fact that they did not get enough support from Westchester contingents. The opposition has always been that we would support this only if it provides very strong provisions that the real estate property taxes be controlled. We also responded to a survey last year from the County Executive office and we repeated the same statement three times. Trustee Cicchetti's main concern was this resolution being passed without this strong emphasis in it. He wished to have this resolution amended to include relief to property taxes. Trustee Rey would like a clause stating that all attempts would be made to keep property taxes down. Trustee Marren commented. that the Board should draft our own resolution. Trustee Treacy stated that tuer-? should be a. sunset provision. Trustee Alter.commsntea that at a recent meeting with the County Executive, Andrew O'Rourke stated that he saw a stabilization of property taxes for about two years which inferred that after two years or sooner, we would have the same cycle. After further discussion, Trustee Rey moved to table this resolution, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried 6-0. Village Attorney will prepare a new resolution for the next meeting with those certain provisions listed. Old Business Mayor Gandolfo stated that the PBA is conducting a fund raiser in April and has asked the Village to buy an ad in their Journal. After a brief discussion on whether this would be a conflict of interest because the PBA is a union, Trustee Marren so moved, but no second to the motion was made. Trustee Marren asked what was being done about the old car behind Sleepy Hollow Restaurant; Trustee Hyland stated the Building Inspector is handling it. The Mayor had received a request from James Tierney that a cap be put on the senior citizen rental housing and passing along a tax exemption for that portion of the rental onto the property owner. After a brief discussion, Trustee Hyland moved to call for a public hearing on February 19th regarding this exemption, second by Trustee Alter and motion carried. 6 �70>P Discussion ensued on the report of Manganaro engineers regarding the feasibility of the move of the Water Department to River Street. Mayor Gandolfo asked that the trustees go down and see for themselves.

Present: Mayor Gandolfo Trustee Marren Trustee Rey Trustee Treacy Absent: Trustee Cicchetti Trustee Alter Trustee Hyland Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator John J. Hughes, Jr. Village Attorney Mayor Gandolfo called the meeting to order with a pledge to the flag. Trustee Marren asked that everyone remain standing for a moment of silence for a long time resident of the Village, Fred Lacerte who passed away. Public Hearings Mayor Gandolfo stated the first hearing was a continuation of the proposed Ethics Code. There was much discussion on this proposed code. Several residents spoke. Mr. Belanich questioned who a certain section of the code pertained to regarding loans. Mayor Gandolfo stated that it pertained to someone who is in a position to make a decision, Trustees Marren and Treacy stated that it is someone with the authority to purchase items, those in a discretionary position or someone who could place the Village in a bad situation. Alex Fudali encouraged the Board to adopt this code but suggested that in Section 19 (3), appointments to Boards such as Zoning and Planning, etc. should be included. Also, the term of the Ethics Board should be longer than two years. Ugo Checchi wanted to know if other Villages had been contacted; and if you are compensated for serving on a Board, can you be a district leader and what was wrong with the old code. Trustee Treacy stated that he contacted six other towns and villages and that the NYS Commission of Government Integrity has informed all municipalities, etc. that they must upgrade their old codes. The Mayor stated that you cannot be a district leader if you are compensated for serving on a Board. Mrs. Meade wanted to know if you leave a position before you come before the Ethics Board, can the person still be disciplined. The Mayor stated the Board would have asked the person to resign anyway. After more discussion, Trustee Treacy stated that the County can act in a situation if we do not establish an Ethics Board; we hope we may never need to use this Board at all. 1 �I Trustee Treacy moved to adjourn the hearing to the next meeting on March 5, 1991, seconded by Trustee Rey and motion carried. Mayor Gandolfo read the attached public notice regarding an amendment to Sections 57-6 and 57-7 of the Vehicle and Traffic Code which came about at the request of an area resident Eugene Buonanno (copy of his letter is attached). Mitch and Eileen Meade of 38 Gordon Avenue were against this proposed amendment because they felt it was too narrow on that bend and the only people to benefit from this would be the businesses around the corner who already take up many spaces. Mrs. Meade suggested making Katrina to Rice Avenue a one-way street. The Mayor stated that there would still be a need to move cars for the sweeper and she would speak to the Police Chief and the Fire Chief for their opinion on a possible one-way street. There being no further comments, Trustee Treacy moved to adjourn the hearing until March 5th, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried. Mayor Gandolfo read the attached public notice regarding tax exemption for rent controlled property occupied by senior citizens. The Village Attorney stated that certain criteria must be met such as age, income, if their rent is in excess of 1/3 of their total income, etc. There were no comments from the public. Trustee Treacy moved to adjourn the hearing to March 5th, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried. Approval of Minutes Trustee Rey moved to approve the minutes of the Special meeting of February 1, 1991 as written, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried. Trustee Marren moved to approve the minutes of February 5, 1991, seconded by Trustee Treacy. Trustee Marren questioned whether the executive section of the meeting should have more information in it. Village Counsel stated that this should be discussed in executive session. Approval of Warrants * Trustee Marren moved to approve the warrants and authorize the Treasurer to pay the bills, seconded by Trustee Treacy and motion carried. The amount of the General fund wa $73,988.37 and the Water Department fund was $10,521.26. Communications, Petitions & Requests The Mayor received a letter signed by Joseph DeMichele and Gabriel Hayes, Sr. requesting the removal of a tree an the end of Amos Street; referred to General Foreman and Tree Commission. Correspondence was received from the Red Cross requesting our participation in their program in March. 2 �Correspondence was received from POMCO regarding regional meetings which will be held to discuss the plan alternatives available to participating municipalities as of April 1, 1991. Mayor Gandolfo was in receipt of a letter from President of Sleepy Hollow Cemetery regarding an amendment to the Village's Wetland/Watercourse Protection Law. The Mayor received a letter from Elena Malunis resigning from the Architectural Review Board effective February 15, 1991. Trustee Marren moved to accept her resignation with regrets and thanked her for her time on the Board, seconded by Trustee Treacy and motion carried. A letter was received from Catherine Albaneze regarding a claim; will be referred to Counsel. A letter was received from Hudson Canyon Construction,Inc. regarding the possible purchase of the Water Department Garage. The Mayor was in receipt of a letter from William Diament, Attorney representing a couple of property owners in the Village requesting that the Board consider amending the local regulations for the emergency Tenants Protection Act to change the number of units affected by the law from six units to either eight, ten or twelve units. Will discuss at next work session. The Mayor has received a letter from Joseph DeMelia with regard to the outstanding claims against the Village (will be taken up under resolutions) . Public Comments Mr. Belanich commented that the Citizen's Calendar which usually appears in the Daily News on Sundays was not there this week. The Mayor suggested that he complain to Gannett Newspaper. Mr. Belanich suggested that on the PBA request for appointments of sergeants and lieutenants in the Police Department, the one with the highest score should be chosen, The Mayor stated that the Board would pick the most qualified out of the top three candidates on the civil service list. James Donovan asked what the status was of the Halpern proposal; the Mayor stated the proposed agreement is being drafted by the attorneys. Trustee Marren commented that there is a resolution on tonight's agenda to extend the contract for negotiating the contract until May 31, 1991. Joe Poli of 126 Valley Street wanted to know why the Village owns the parking lot adjacent to Margotta Courts and purchased it for only $1. The Mayor stated that this was done many years ago during the urban renewal process and suggested that he check with Angie Mazzacone at the North Tarrytown Housing Authority. 3 �I Mr. Donovan asked if it is a forgone conclusion that the Village will approve the Halpern agreement; the Mayor stated no and Trustee Rey stated that the residents will be able to see the completed agreement before it is voted on. Trustee Marren commented that she had recommended previously to the Board that they not take a vote on the completed agreement until they receive a recommendation from the financial ad hoc committee. There being no further comments, the Mayor closed this section. Mayors Report Mayor Gandolfo reported that the Department of Health will hold a meeting on February 2 0th at 7PM in the Court Room to answer concerns of residents of the Duracell area. Department of Health will be testing blood and urine in the Fire Department on February 22 to those residents. The Village of Tarrytown has notified us that Knapp McCarthy has been charging passengers a twenty-five cents fare surcharge a ride. A letter has been sent to them stating this surcharge is illegal unless they first come to the Board for approval and if anyone should be charged, they should call Village Hall. ARCH will be accepting applications to purchase condo units which will be built on the former Immaculate Conception Church site. Anyone interested with a total income between $28,000.-$42,000. should contact Rose Noonan at 332-5229. Mayor Gandolfo stated that the Village of Dobbs Ferry has requested that our Acting Village Justice be permitted to sit in their court when needed. (See attached resolution #2/32/91) There will be a Planning Board meeting on February 21 at 8 PM. Administrators Report The Administrator reported that with regard to the proposed state budget, for villages it is a 100% cut in revenue sharing for $178,000. and it appears that building and fire code aid, senior and youth programs would also be cut approximately $191,000. which would mean a 7% property tax increase. A resolution on the agenda opposing to any cut at all in revenue sharing will be sent to our state representatives. Bids for the police suburban were opened today. Russell Chevrolet came in with the lowest bid of $19,540. We received a check for $10,600. from the other insurance company and the Village Attorney is investigating the possibility of obtaining the difference from the tractor trailer company. The Administrator stated that we have received the list of the outstanding claims from Joe DeMelia and he recommended that we accept his audit. 4 �Trustees1 Reports Trustee Treacy gave an update on the grant for commercial revitalization that he and Teri Waivada have been working on. Last year we were able to do approximately thirty storefronts. We have a very good chance of receiving this grant and the Van Tassel will be the first one in line for this grant since they were at the end last year when funds ran out. They plan to do the entire block and a half of storefronts. There are no strings attached to this grant. Much discussion ensued on whether it was ethical for Teri Waivada to be helping us at no cost to the Village. Trustee Marren felt that in light of the proposed new ethics code, it was not appropriate to have Teri Waivada be paid by Jon Halpern since we are in the process of entering into agreement with Halpern. Trustee Marren moved that the Board not accept this money from Halpern to pay Teri Waivada and find the money in our budget to pay her, seconded by Trustee Rey. More discussion ensued; Mayor Gandolfo and Trustee Treacy felt that this was such a small sum and would not have any effect on the Halpern vote, and Trustee Rey agreed with Trustee Marren. On the motion, Trustees Marren and Rey voted YES and Mayor Gandolfo and Trustee Treacy voted NO; motion was defeated. Trustee Treacy then read resolution #2/29/91 which is attached. Trustee Treacy commented that more volunteers are needed for the blood drive. Trustee Rey reported that with regard to the new fire apparatus, sometime early in April it can be viewed as it goes through its breaking in process. There will be a need for Pocantico Hook & Ladder to replace its truck by 1992. He met with the Ambulance Corp with regard to the discussion of the possibility of collecting revenue through no-fault insurance when there is an accident and legal aspects are involved. He will report back to the Board on this in March. With regard to pensions for volunteer firemen, there is action still pending in the courts. Trustee Marren reported that on the status of 1 Evergreen Way; she has contacted Senator Spano's office and he is intervening to get a written document from OMH; she and John Hughes are still working on it but nothing is resolved yet. Resolutions-Attached Resolution #2/33/91: Trustee Treacy moved to adopt the audit as submitted by the Village accountant and to include a list of claims presently pending against the Village, seconded by Trustee Rey. Discussion ensued on whether accumulated sick leave should be in the audit. The Administrator stated that there are two options; include it in the budget every year or set up a risk retention fund. The Village Attorney stated that it is not necessary to have this fund set up. Motion carried. 5 �Mayor Gandolfo stated that she would like to approve the towing contract whereby the Board decided to use Stiloski and Alex Towing on an alternate basis and set up a licensing fee for both parties. The Board decided to take this up at the next meeting. The Administrator stated that the DEC has requested that the Village vote to declare a negative declaration as to the effect of composting at the Phelps site as opposed to the DEC doing it; they want the municipalities to be the lead agency. Trustee Treacy moved to declare the Village of North Tarrytown the lead agency, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried. Old Business Trustee Rey expressed his appreciation of the installation of the signal light on Old Sleepy Hollow Road but wanted to know when it would be working; the Administrator stated that we are waiting for Con Ed to energize the line and also for Con Ed to correct the problem with the traffic light on Cortlandt Street and College Avenue. New Business The next work session is February 2 6th. Public Comments Frank Rizzi requested information regarding the proposed condos on Depeyster Street. Executive Session Trustee Treacy moved to adjourn to executive session to discuss personnel matters, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried. Discussion ensued on a letter from a police officer addressed to the Chief requesting that he be considered for the position of police sergeant. The disciplinary hearing for a police officer has been set for February 27th at 8:00 PM. Discussion ensued on the approval of minutes for February 5th with regard to the discussion in executive session. Trustee Marren wanted to add that with regard to the discussion of the vacancies in the Police Department, overstaffing was discussed and the Police Chief will review the restructuring of the police department. With those additions, Trustee Treacy moved to approve the minutes of February 5, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried. There being no further business, the Mayor adjourned the meeting.

Present: Mayor Gandolfo Trustee Treacy Trustee Alter Trustee Cicchetti Trustee Rey Trustee Hyland Trustee Marren Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator John J. Hughes, Jr. Village Attorney Mayor Gandolfo called the meeting to order with the pledge, to the flag. Public Hearings Mayor Gandolfo stated that the first hearing was a continuation of the new proposed "Ethics" code. Mario Belanich recommended waiting for the new board before approving the new Ethics Code. There being no other comments from the public, Trustee Cicchetti moved to close the public hearing, seconded by Trustee Alter and motion carried 6-0. Mayor Gandolfo stated that the next hearing was a continuation of the proposed changes to Sections 57-6 and 57-7 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law. The Mayor stated that since the last meeting, no further correspondence has been received regarding this change. There were no comments from the public, therefore Trustee Treacy moved to close this public hearing, seconded by Trustee Alter and motion carried 6-0. Mayor Gandolfo stated that the next hearing regarding abatement to seniors will be held after the hearing on proposed amendments to the Wetlands/Watercourse ordinance. tax the Mayor Gandolfo read the attached public hearing notice regarding these proposed amendments. She stated that letters received from Patricia Kringas, Donald Stever, Turnquist Architects, Frederick P. Clark Associates, Inc. and Sleepy Hollow Cemetery pertaining to these amendments will be made part of the record. Donald Stever, a member of the Conservation Advisory Council, commented that the CAC was instrumental in bringing this ordinance to the Board. He then addressed the Board with comments on each of the proposed amendments to the wetlands ordinance. 1 �- ? 0 * - Mr. Weiss, representing the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, addressed the Board stating that he did not object to all the amendments but stated that the ordinance needed softening, otherwise many problems will exist. The size of their stream in question is very small and he felt that consideration should be given to size. Patricia Kringas read her attached letter to the Board. Steve Baderian, member of the Planning Board, stated that he felt that destruction of a wetland is forever and cannot be reversed, and delegating away the responsibility of the hard issues which will be encountered under this ordinance is not a solution. George O'Hanlon stated all sizes of wetlands need protection and the ordinance should not be amended. Mr. Goldhagen also felt the ordinance should not be amended. Dr. Sweet, CAC Chairman, stated that years ago there were no means to protect the wetlands; the Council proceeded to pursue it and the Board of Trustees did pass this Wetlands ordinance. He also felt that it should stand as is with no change. Jim Donovan, of Frederick P. Clark, Associates, commented that the reason for amendments were not only based on his review of two applications before the Planning Board. He felt that a few changes could be made without drastically changing the ordinance. Some sections just need clarification, not changes; basis is value not size, function of wetland determines its value. The interpretation as it stands now, does not give anyone a chance to build. Trustees Cicchetti commented size or value is very difficult to define and the Board should make judgment on each case but the sole criteria should not be size. Trustee Marren 's concern was establishing value which is very difficult to define. Mr. Galella questioned whether buildings which are already built might have been denied if this ordinance was in effect. The Mayor stated it is very possible. Mr. Belanich questioned how the definition of a wetland could be amended. The Mayor commented that Mr. Donovan stated that we should comply with the definition that the federal government uses. Donald Stever stated that after hearing Mr. Donovan's explanations for the amendments, there are certain concepts that are acceptable but some language needs to be clarified. Mr. Weiss commented that the size should not be an automatic exception, but only if the Board deems feasible. 2 �803 Trustee Cicchetti stated that what the Board is trying to get across is that the identification of size is not a necessary factor, because regardless of size there are certain identifying criteria which must be met. Judith Washburn commented that one application before Planning Board should not be the basis of these amendments. the Trustee Treacy moved to close the public hearing, seconded by Trustee Alter and motion carried 6-0. John Hughes, Village Attorney, stated that prior to any final decision, the Board must comply with the State Environmental Review Act and suggested that we first declare the Board as lead agent, prepare an environmental assessment form, and prepare resolutions which show that we have performed our obligations under SEQR. Brief discussion ensued. Trustee Cicchetti stated that the hearing helped to clarify many areas, especially the discussion on size. Trustee Marren asked for a clarification on #4 and Mr. Donovan stated the Planning Board must not only look at the quality of the wetlands but also at the availability of alternate sites and at mitigation. Given the wording in the current ordinance there is not much chance of many permits being granted. Mayor Gandolfo stated that questions have come up with regard to this ordinance that need to be answered and that the amendments are not soley for the purpose of the applications before the Board at this time. Trustee Cicchetti moved to declare the Board of Trustees as lead agency and have Counsel prepare the environmental assessment form which is required, seconded by Trustee Alter and motion carried. The Mayor stated that before any decision is made everyone will be notified. The Mayor continued the public hearing on the proposed tax abatement to rent controlled properties occupied by seniors.. Jim Tierney addressed the Board stating that he has checked around and many villages already have this exemption and v/ould like to Board to consider passing this resolution. After a brief discussion, Trustee Cicchetti moved, seconded by Trustee Alter to adopt a local law authorizing tax abatement to rent controlled or rent regulated properties occupied by senior citizens. More discussion ensued; Trustees Marren and Cicchetti suggested that we wait and see what the impact would be. Mayor Gandolfo commented that it is very difficult to determine the impact until the seniors start applying. Trustee Marren moved to table this discussion until the second meeting in April, seconded by Trustee Cicchetti and motion carried with Trustee Treacy voting No. 3 �I Approval of Minutes Trustee Treacy moved to approve the minutes of February 19, 1991, seconded by Trustee Marren with the following corrections: Trustee Treacy stated that on page 1, last paragraph should read NYS Commission on Government Integrity not NYCOM, page 5, line 2, Halpern Associates should be deleted and Trustee Marren stated on page 4, first paragraph, last line financial should be added to ad hoc committee; with those corrections motion carried with Trustees Cicchetti, Alter and Hyland abstaining. Trustee Rey moved to approve the minutes of the 79 College Avenue Corporation meeting, seconded by Trustee Marren and motion carried with Trustees Cicchetti, Alter and Hyland abstaining. Approval of Warrants Trustee Hyland moved to approve the warrants and authorize the treasurer to pay the bills, seconded by Trustee Cicchetti. The Deputy Treasurer commented that there were a few changes; payment to Tappan Car Wash should be $125.50 and requested the Board to approve reimbursement to the Senior Citizens for $4482.00, also payment of $3160.64 to Radio Shack should be deleted; with those changes motion was carried.

Trustee Treacy suggested referring this to the Handicapped Committee. Eileen Meade commented that at a meeting with Hugh Jones, he told the Commission that there was an agreement with the Village to dump at Devries Field. The Mayor stated that this is not true and no agreement was ever made with him; Village Counsel will send a letter to him regarding this. Mrs. Meade asked where the $12,000. which GM donated was applied. Mayor Gandolfo stated that it was used to level and grade the field. Mrs. Meade asked why flatbed trucks were at the field and when the debris will be removed. The Administrator stated that Metro North has a right of way and have been granted access for a day or more for their trailers. Most of the debris has been removed and all will be gone by the time Little League starts. If the hay is not removed, we can use it. There being no further comments, the Mayor closed the public comment section. Mayor's Report Mayor Gandolfo received a call from Mayor Pilla of Tarrytown suggesting that the two villages sponsor a joint home coming celebration for those residents who are presently serving in the Gulf. We would like to set up a Citizens' Committee to organize the event. Trustee Marren suggested that the Street Festival might be a good time to have this.

Tarry town N.Y. 10591 March 5, 1991 Dear Mayor Gandolfo and The Village Board of Trustees, The Wetlands/Watercourse ordinance in concept is very valuable to a community. Kyself and my family support environmental protection,however this local law for wetland/watercourse protection is much too RESTRICTIVE. In particular the small property owner who has paid taxes on property for more than 30 years in hopes of subdividing a lot is greatly penalized by the restrictive language in the law. The law does not take into consideration the character of the land versus a common PUDDLE. When you apply this law to someones front lawn or to a major track of farm land or open fields the character is considerably different. This ordinance has only one standard and is extremely rigid in its application. In the case of the small property owner, a small plot of land that is within the 100 ft. of a wetland this area needs to be evaluated in terms of the following criteria: a) Does it serve an educational value? b) Are their endangered species threatened? c) Is there aesthetic value to the wetland? d) Does the land serve a wetland function? The mitigation clause calls for a 2:1 replacement. No other state has such a strict ordinance. The State Of New Jersey just passed a 1:1 replacement recently and according to experts this is viewed as restrictive. This law has no room for variances at all. More specifically; a) There is no time requirement on land ownership. b) There is no hardship clause. c) There is no wetland analysis exemption clause. d) There is no consideration of the tax payer constitutional right to develop property that he has paid HIGH TAXES on for multiple years. �Wetlands/page 2 Kringas letter . March 5, 1991 Finally, This ordinance is inconsistent with zoning requirements. If the zoning requirements are a 5000 sq. ft. minimums for a building lot then the 100 ft. setback requirement of the wetland law , makes it impossible to develop small property. My appeal is to the Mayor and the Board to consider some revisions in our local wetlands law. The revisions that I have suggested are consistent with federal guidelines and other neighboring communities laws. Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Janet Gandolfo, Mayor Village of North Tarrytown 28 Beekman Street North Tarrytown, N.Y. 10591 •^-(^ Re: Wetland/Watercourse Protection Law Dear Janet: I have received a copy of a letter sent to you by Jim Donovan of Frederick P. Clark Associates, in which he suggests certain revisions to the Wetland/Watercourse Protection Law ("the Law"). Since this law had its origin in the Conservation Advisory Committee, of which I am a member, I am taking the liberty to provide you, and by the copy to John Hughes, to the Village Attorney, with my comments on the suggested amendments. As a threshold matter, since the Law had its origin in model local legislation produced by the Westchester County Soil and Water Conservation District, and in particular Laura Tessier, its staff director, who is a well-regarded wetland expert, I have taken the liberty of sending a copy of this letter and the F.P. Clark letter to Ms. Tessier, and have solicited her reaction, I have had over fifteen years of experience in wetland regulatory matters, including having represented EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers in the later 1970s and early 1980s, while the federal wetlands program was being developed, and I will try to bring some of that experience to bear on the matters suggested by Clark Associates. Definition of Wetland. Clark suggests simplifying the definition of wetland to "reflect the general wording of the federal government", indicating that such a change was recently suggested by the County Soil and Water Conservation District. Although I have no particular quarrel with doing that, you should know that one reason the definition is as detailed as it is relates to a desire to avoid uncertainty and to limit local costs. The federal definition requires numerous judgment calls, which must be made at each site by �I AUSTIN N E W YORK experts. Such judgment calls can be expensive and are subject to challenge. Although the current language is far from perfect, it has the one significant advantage of clarity and certainty of application. Wetland/Watercourse Buffer. suggestion. I agree with Clark's Minimum Wetland Size. I disagree entirely with this suggestion. First, an arbitrary size limitation is inconsistent with the generally-held notion that even a very small wetland can be very important in the right location. For North Tarrytown, moreover, 1/10 acre is too large a threshold. For example, recently an applicant before the Planning Board proposed to destroy a very small, but very unique wetland area, and has been (or will have to be) told to consider alternatives which are available to it. Although probably larger than 1/10 acre, this is still small. The federal law contains no jurisdictional thresholds, and the Corps of Engineers regulatory program employs a convenience threshold of ten acres for freshwater wetlands, which (1) assumes that local regulation will fill the gap and (2) which is subject to withdrawal in individual projects. Animal Grazing. The suggestion by Clark makes sense. Necessary and Unavoidable Impacts. I also disagree with this suggestion, which cuts to the heart of the protectiveness of this law. A similar issue was raised several years ago in connection with §404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, with EPA, and ultimately the federal courts, concluding that if these laws are to work, offsite, as well as onsite alternatives must be considered relevant. In the case that established this principal, the developer conveniently bought a parcel that was mostly wetland, because it was cheap. He did not buy a nearby parcel that did not have wetlands that would have served equally well for his shopping center. It was, at the time of the relevant litigation, owned by another developer who had no intention of selling. The court concluded that if the activity could be done as well on an upland area, the impacts were neither necessary nor unavoidable. By rewording the Law to limit alternative site consideration only to sites owned by the applicant at the time virtually creates a loophole that creative land assembly will be able to exploit. I do, however, agree that non-wetland environmental impacts associated with development on upland sites should be considered, and thus would support amending the Law to factor this consideration into the alternatives analysis. �SIDLEY <Sc N E W YORK AUSTIN Mandatory Mitigation. This comment by Clark seems cynical to me. The federa-1 wetland program, which historically did not require mandatory mitigation, has been altered within the last two years to require mandatory mitigation. That change was premised on the realization that otherwise no meaningful mitigation would occur. The two-for-one replacement formula recognizes that man-made ecosystems are generally inferior to natural systems, and thus if you destroy a natural system a greater area of artificial wetland needs to be created as a replacement. The whole point of these laws is to reverse the trend of destroying these important areas because they were cheap to buy. If you eliminate mandatory mitigation, you eliminate the disincentive. Wetland Buffer Replacement. position on this point. Watercourse Replacement. on this point. 1" agree with Clark's I agree with Clark's position I would be happy to discuss these matters with the Board, should it wish to receive my views. f Very truSLy ,-yrmrs Donald W.

Laura Tessier CAC Chair �TURNQUIST ARCHITECTS 95 BEEKMAN AVE NORTH TARRYTOWN NEW YORK 10591 TEL 914-631-9107 March 4, 1991 The Honorable Janet Gandolfo, Mayor & the Board of Trustees, Village of North Tarrytown 2 8 Beekman Avenue North Tarrytown, New York 10591 Re: Local Law for Wetland/Watercourse Protection Dear Mayor and Trustees: This letter is intended to describe the dilemma of two of my clients who want to build 1 family houses in the Village of North Tarrytown. The first client has requested consideration by the Village of North Tarrytown Planning Board for a subdivision on Webber Avenue. The owner wishes to subdivide a parcel and create 2 conforming lots on which he would build houses for his son and daughter. The project appeared to be acceptable to the Planning Board until the Village Planning Consultant pointed out that the parcels were within 100 feet of a watercourse. This watercourse, it was suggested, may run under the owners present lawn area. A surface investigation by this office (during all seasons) and the description of soil encountered by the owner when creating the lawn suggested that if there is any movement of water, it must be well below the present grade. This type of watercourse movement is common along the Hudson River Valley, especially during the spring thaw. Water penetrates the surface soils and reaches the substrata of rock and flows from the high points of the Village down to the Hudson River. The owner is now confronted with the additional cost of determining the possible existence of a watercourse and whether or not the property falls under the Wetland/Watercourse Protection Law. The second client subdivided a parcel on Tappan Avenue some 3 years ago. The subdivision created 2 conforming lots. At that time the owner was unable financially to construct the 2 one family residences, one of which he had intended to live in. Recently the client has directed this office to prepare construction documents �The Honorable Janet Gandolfo, Mayor & the Board of Trustees, Village of North Tarrytown March 4, 1991 page 2 for the 2 houses. Consulting with the Building Inspector, he pointed out that the 2 parcels in question are within 100 feet of the Pocantico River and they would fall under the Wetland/ Watercourse Protection Law. The lots appear to be entirely clear of any wetlands and/or watercourse and would not in any way affect same. The future of these parcels are in question. To summarize, these 2 clients over the years have planned to build a home for themselves and/or their relatives. Thinking that they had buildable lots, these people have discovered that there is a very good chance that they cannot build and that the parcels are basically worthless. Reviewing the present "Local Law for Wetland/Watercourse Protection", this office feels that this law is too restrictive; there is no room for individual variances; there is no consideration for hardship and if required, the "Mitigation Policy" as described by a ratio of 2:1 is unusually strict. The Law has good intentions and would limit large scale projects (as it should) but unfairly penalizes the small individual property owner. Having heard some of the recommendations of the Village Planning Consultant, this office urges the Mayor and the Board to consider them and revise this very restrictive law. We are all in favor of protecting our Wetlands and Watercourses and these modifications will not realistically affect our natural resources. Thank you for your interest.

The revisions were meant to make the Law easier to administer, and more equitable to Village residents. As requested by the Village Board, we have drafted exact changes to the Law based on our earlier recommendations. These proposed text changes take into account outside comments already received by the Village on our suggestions. Our proposed text changes, which are identified with proposed additions underlined and proposed deletions in brackets, are as follows. 1. To eliminate the discrepancy about grazing horses, modify Section 61-5. AGRICULTURAL ACTIVITY as follows: The activity of an individual farmer or other landowner in grazing and watering livestock that directly produce agricultural products? making reasonable use of water resources for agricultural purposes; harvesting the natural products of wetlands, excluding peat mining and timber harvesting; and selective cutting of trees, filling or selective cutting of trees. "Agricultural activity" does not mean clear-cutting trees; filling or deposition of spoil; mining; grazing of horses for nonagricultural purposes or draining for growing agricultural products or for other purposes. �^r FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation Mayor Janet Gandolfo Page 2 February 26, 1991 2. To shorten the definition of Wetland, and to reference the Federal definition, delete Section 61-5. WETLAND/FRESHWATER WETLAND Subsection B. and substitute the following text: B. All areas that comprise hvdric soils and are inundated or saturated bv surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of hvdrophytic vegetation as defined bv the Federal Interagency Committee for Wetland Delineation. 1989. Federal Manual for Identifying and Delineating Jurisdictional Wetlands. US Army Corps of Engineers, US Environmental Protection Agency, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and USDA Soil Conservation Service, Washington, DC. Cooperative Technical Publication. (Note: Four pages of wetland definition will be deleted by this modification.) As part of this modification, the following definitions in Section 61-5 can also be deleted: 3. DOMINANTS or DOMINANCE FACULTATIVE SPECIES FERROUS IRON GROWING SEASON HISTOSALS/ORGANIC SOILS LONG DURATION MINERAL SOIL MUNSELL COIL COLOR CHARTS OBLIGATE UPLAND SPECIES VERY LONG DURATION WATER TABLE WETLAND HYDROLOGY WETLAND PLANTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, 19 8 6 To provide watercourses with a buffer, modify Section 61-5. WETLAND/WATERCOURSE BUFFER as follows: The "wetland/watercourse buffer" is a specified area surrounding a wetland or watercourse that is intended to provide some degree of protection to the wetland or watercourse from human activity and other encroachment associated with development. The "wetland/watercourse buffer" shall be subject to the regulations for wetlands as defined in this local law and shall be determined to be the area extending one hundred (100) feet horizontally �FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation Mayor Janet Gandolfo Page 3 February 26, 1991 away from and paralleling the wetland boundary or watercourse edge or greater than one hundred (100) feet where designated by either the Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Conservation or the local approval authority. 4. To not penalize Village residents who have owned land for a long time, modify Section. 61-12.A. (7) as follows: The availability of preferable alternative locations on the subject parcel or, in the case of an activity which cannot be undertaken on the property without disturbance to wetland/watercourse, the availability of other reasonable locations for the activity that could be obtained, used, expanded, or managed at any time during the proposed activities planning history, whether or not such locations are now under the ownership or control of the applicant. Additionally, modify Section 61-12.D.(3) as follows: There is no feasible alternative to the proposed activity on any other site that could be obtained, used, expanded or managed at anv time during the proposed activities planning history that is not a wetland/watercourse or wetland/watercourse buffer. 5. To provide more flexibility in the types of required, modify Section 61-13.A. as follows: A. mitigation After it has been determined by the Planning Board pursuant to § 61-12D that losses of wetland/watercourse or buffers are necessary and unavoidable and have been minimized to the maximum extent practicable, the applicant shall develop a mitigation plan which shall specify mitigation measures that provide for mitigation as follows: (1) For losses to wetlands: replacement wetlands or enhancement or restoration of existing wetlands [/watercourses] that recreate as nearly as possible the original wetlands[/watercourses] in terms of type, functions, geographic location and setting and that are larger than, by a ratio of two to one (2:1), the original wetlands[/watercourses], provided the ecological impacts associated with the �FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning /Development/Environment/Transportation Mayor Janet Gandolfo Page 4 February 26, 1991 mitigation are not greater than those associated with the proposed activity; (2) For losses to watercourses: replacement, enhancement or restoration of the watercourse that recreates as nearly as possible the disturbed or lost portion of the original watercourse in terms of type, function, geographic location and setting, bv a ratio of one to one for the disturbed or lost portion of the watercourse or the preparation of other mitigation plans acceptable to the approving authority that serves to replace or enhance the functions of the watercourse affected bv the proposed activity; and (3) For losses to wetland buffers; enhancement of existing wetland buffers. or enhancement or restoration of existing wetlands by a ratio of two to one for the area disturbed bv the proposed activity that replace or enhance the functions of the wetland or wetland buffer. For the purposes of mitigation, losses of wetland/watercourse buffers will be viewed as losses of wetland. On-site mitigation shall be the preferred approach, off-site mitigation shall be permitted only in cases where an on-site alternative is not possible. 6. To revise the regulation of smaller wetlands, the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery has suggested an addition of another subsection to Section 61-12. This addition should be considered if the Board feels that it would like to consider any sort of limiting of the regulations for smaller wetland areas. The wording of the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery proposal, with our suggested modifications, is a follows: 61-12 E. Waiver. If the area of a wetland/watercourse for which there has been an application for a permit is one-tenth of an acre or less, the Planning Board shall be empowered, upon such conditions as it may deem appropriate, to waive any of the provisions of Section 61-12 and 61-13 of this local law in issuing such permit. 7. To clarify potential discrepancies within the law as to the delineation of wetlands, modify Section 61-3.B. as follows: �FREDERICK P. CLARK ASSOCIATES, INC. Planning/Development/Environment/Transportation Mayor Janet Gandolfo Page 5 February 26, 1991 Rules for establishing and interpreting wetland/watercourse boundaries. The boundaries of a wetland/watercourse ordinarily shall be determined by field investigation [,] and flagging [and] with a subsequent survey by a licensed land surveyor unless the last is waived by the North Tarrytown Planning Board. The North Tarrytown Planning Board may consult and/or may require the applicant to consult with biologists, hydrologists, soil scientists, ecologists/botanists or other experts as necessary to make this determination pursuant to the definition criteria contained in § 61-5. Additionally, modify Section 61-10.A.(6)(a) as follows: (a) The location of all wetlands/watercourses as determined by a qualified ecologist/botanist [and/or]j_ soil scientist and/or other qualified experts no earlier than twelve (12) months prior to the date of filing the application. If you have any questions on our proposed text, please let us know. We are planning to attend the Village Board's upcoming public hearing to more fully explain the proposed revisions to both you and the public. We have taken the liberty of forwarding a copy of these proposed revisions to anyone who commented on our earlier suggestions.

Present: Mayor Gandolfo Trustee Treacy Trustee Alter Trustee Cicchetti Trustee Rey Trustee Hyland Trustee Marren Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator John J. Hughes, Jr. Village Attorney Mayor Gandolfo called the meeting to order with a pledge to the flag. Public Hearings Mayor Gandolfo read the attached Public Hearing notice with regard to amending the NYS Emergency Tenant Protection Act of 1974. Patricia Kringas spoke on behalf of her father-in-law, Demetrious Kringas, urging the Board to consider amending this law since the law seriously hurts the small homeowner.(Copy of her letter is attached) Ann Pauletti, owner of 190 Valley Street, urged the Board to amend this law. She stated that she has spent so much money renovating this building and cannot increase the rent in several apartments. There is so much bureaucracy at the County level that nothing ever gets resolved. Peter Kringas stated that many of the communities have amended the ETPA law to apply only to those buildings with twelve, sixteen and twenty units. Sam Gittens, a tenant at 100 College Avenue stated that this law is on the books to protect the tenants. We need landlords and tenants to work together. William Diament, Attorney and former hearing officer of rent control, stated that for years it had been decided to treat small landlords differently. There are only twenty nine buildings in North Tarrytown which have between six and ten units. Trustee Treacy spoke to several landlords who state that dealing with ETPA bureaucracy is very difficult and he stated that the Board should seriously consider amending this law.There are seven buildings in the Village that have more than ten units. Trustees Rey and Marren suggested that the Board not make any decisions tonight, but review it further. The Village Attorney also recommended that the law should be reviewed further. 1 �P-JT The Mayor stated that we are only considering amending the number of units, not controls on the landlords, ETPA already does this. Paul Brannigan, real estate agent, commented that the vacancy rate of the properties that he manages right now is in excess of 5%. Mr. Diament stated that the 5% figure is set in the law that if a municipality determines that there is an overall 5% vacancy, they must go out of ETPA. Trustee Rey moved to accept the attorney's advise and not make any decision tonight but to discuss it further at the April 9th work session, seconded by Trustee Marren; Trustees Treacy, Cicchetti, Hyland and Mayor Gandolfo voted NO with Trustees Rey, Marren and Alter voting YES. More discussion ensued among the trustees. The Village Attorney very strongly recommended that the Board wait before making any decision in case challenges arise from any tenants. Mr. Tierney suggested that more regulations are needed. After further discussion with the Village Attorney, Mayor Gandolfo stated that the public hearing would remain open until the Board has a chance to discuss it further. The hearing would continue at the April 16th Board meeting. Approval of Minutes Trustee Treacy moved to approve the minutes of March 5, 1991 as written, seconded by Trustee Cicchetti and motion carried 6-0 after a brief discussion. Trustee Cicchetti moved to approve the minutes of Grievance Day February 19,1991 and the Board of Assessment Review March 12, 1991, seconded by Trustee Alter and motion carried 6-0. Before moving on to regular order of business, Trustee Treacy presented Mayor Gandolfo with a plaque and thanked her for all the time and effort she put forth as Mayor since 1987 and enumerated a few of her many accomplishments during her terms as Mayor. Approval of Warrants Trustee Marren moved to approve the warrants and authorize the Treasurer to pay the bills, seconded by Trustee Treacy and motion carried 6-0 after a brief discussion. Total of General Fund is $339,988.46 and the Water Department Fund total is $15,672.87. Trustee Alter questioned why we were borrowing money for Devries field when we had money for that purpose. The Administrator stated that this was to replenish the recreation fund. A brief discussion ensued. 2 T~ �P-5-J Communications, Petitions and Requests Mayor Gandolfo was in receipt of letters regarding the proposed increase in the County sales tax from Senator Spano, Manfred Ohrenstein, Senator Goodhue, Assemblywoman Singer,and Gov.

(Refer to Police Chief) Public Comments Alex Fudali expressed concern about Board members confusion over funds allocated in the budget. expressing Trustee Rey commented that there was no confusion, the Board is reviewing the budget now. Trustee Alter stated that the discussion was whether money could be transferred elsewhere. Walter Ceconi asked if there had been a resolution to transfer funds. The Mayor commented that it is all part of the record. Frank Rizzi addressed the Board stating that the sign ordinance should be repealed because the ten day clause cannot apply during election time. Trustee Treacy stated that this ordinance was passed to regulate existing and proposed signs. Perhaps the ordinance could be amended for election purposes. Mayor Gandolfo stated that the sign ordinance has no effect on election and recommended amending the ordinance. James Donovan asked if there was a leash law since people do not seem to be abiding by it. The Mayor stated that there is and there is also a "pooper scooper law".

Respectfully submitted, (\J (LA-BJ&O Angela Everett Deputy Village Clerk I �I Public Notice Village of North Tarrytown PLEASE TAKE NOTICE, that the Board of Trustees of the Village of North Tarrytown will hold a Public Hearing on Tuesday, March 26, 1991 at 8:00 o'clock PM at Village Hall, 28 Beekman Avenue, North Tarrytown, New York to hear and consider amending the New York State Emergency Tenant Protection Act of 1974, Chapter 567- Laws of 1974 to apply only to those residential rental properties within the Village of North Tarrytown that contain ten or more rental units. A copy of said local law is available in the office of the Village Clerk. All taxpayers, residents and parties in interest are entitled to attend and be heard at this public meeting. By Order of the Board of Trustees Dated: March 21, 1991 Angela Everett, Deputy Village Clerk �Ps& Patricia Kringas 149 Webber Avenue North Tarrytown, N.Y. TO: Mayor Janet Gandolfo and The Board Of Trustees From: Patricia Kringas Date: March 22, 1991 Re: 10591 Public Hearing: Emergency Tenants Protection Act Mj I am writing to encourage your support for a revision of the Emergency Tenants ProtectionH Act. The*proposed change is significantly positive to the small apartment building owners in North Tarrytown. These owners have suffered greatly since 1982 when ETPA was enacted. This severe regulation binds the apartment building owners beyond belief. Rents have to be. kept at far below market rates. Concurrently, the taxes, water, tax assessments and maintenance expenses have sky rocketed. The marginal rent increases allowed by ETPA are so low that it is impossible to meet expenses. The owner is mandated to submit expense reports to ETPA on a yearly basis. To illustrate my point I have attached a copy of Mr. Demetrios Kringas' ETPA report of 1990. As you can see, the amount of profit is $0000.00. The village of North Tarrytown is penalizing the payer of taxes. This is unfair, wrong and inconsistent with logic. The Kringas property was recently reassessed and taxes were increased by this process. The owner once again suffers a loss because no rent adjustment can be made. This proposed revision will eliminate this harsh regulatory body to apartment owners who are not in this as a profitable business. It is a reasonable request to limit the ETPA to greater than 10 apartments. Thank you for taking the time to review this most significant revision in the ETPA. I would like to encourage you to vote in favor of the revision. �Meeting Date: 3/2 6/91 Resolution #: 3/39/91 Be It Resolved the Board of Trustees of the Village of North Tarrytown on behalf of all residents of the Village does hereby participate in the effort to obtain scenic designation for the eastern shore of the Tappan Zee on the Hudson River.

T r u s t e e Cicchetti SECONDEDTrustee Alter 2 VOTE 6 ~° �I Ft North Tarrytown flubs chance for strongest ethics code The most important function performed by political parties is to search out, recruit, nominate and elect good candidates for public office.. Political parties also should take the lead in advocating positions on issues, like the national parties do every four yfears in their platform reports. . ] On the other hand, government officials, both elected and appointed, have another function, to carry out their duties by deciding, in a most independent manner, what is best for a particular community and its people. Too often, the line is being crossed. In too many places in Westchester's local politics, political party chairmen and high officers in the party are serving in policy-making and decision-making positions in government. We think that is wrong and a conflict of interests. We have no objection to party district leaders holding jobs in government that are not in the category of policy-making. The North Tarrytown Village.' Board had an opportunity to make a strong statement on ethics this week, but it went only halfway. To its credit, it established a code of ethics for all village, employees, which among other things will' require village officials to specify why a conflict of interest would not allow them to vote on an issue. However, the board, by a 4-3 vote, eliminated a paragraph that would have prohibited village employees from serving as political officials. We believe that is wrong and hope that the incoming board elected March 19 will reverse that position. Politics has a mission. Government has a mission. But there is a line in the sand that shouldn't be crossed. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Present: Mayor Rey Trustee Timmings Trustee Treacy Trustee Alter Trustee Hayes Trustee Hyland Trustee Nazemetz Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Robert W.

Administrator's Report The Administrator stated that we must set a date for the Public Hearing on the budget and read attached resolution #04/46/91. 1 �I The Administrator stated that the Citizens Advisory Committee on the budget will meet Wednesday night with him and San jay Shah to review the budget. The Beekman Avenue project has recommenced and is moving along quite rapidly. The Administrator stated that there is a personnel item for discussion in executive session. Mayor's Report Mayor Rey commented that normally at the Organization meeting Trustee committee appointments are made, but he would like to postpone that concept at this time and allow the Administrator to continue as Chief Administrative Officer. By the next meeting the Mayor hoped to have appointed a liason to each of the boards and committees so that we will have the best input possible. In the meantime, any trustee can contact the Administrator if they have any questions, ideas, etc. In view of this, the Mayor stated that trustee reports will be suspended tonight unless any trustee has an urgent matter to discuss. Trustee Treacy asked if this meant that the trustees no longer had any duties and that they could not report to the public. The Mayor commented that this was not what he said and that he was only eliminating the trustee reports for this evening until he reviews the concept. Trustee Treacy commented that he felt that Bill Regan is already overworked and he personally felt that this was an attempt to prevent the trustees from accomplishing anything productive during their term on the Board. After more discussion Trustee Treacy gave his report. Trustee Treacy reported that we have completed the commercial revitalization program application with the Urban Community Development Corporation and it is coming along much better than anticipated. We now have participation of six storefronts on the southwest side of Beekman Avenue for a total of seventeen stores from Pocantico Street west, entire Van Tassel building and the property that they own on Teresa Street and every storefront from the Strand Theater to Cortlandt Street, two stores down for a total of twenty stores participating in the facade improvement program. We are requesting a $100,612. grant from UDC with a matching share from the property owners of $83,820. with the UDC picking up the architectural and administrative costs of $16,792. Resolutions-Attached Mayor Rey stated that he would like to entertain a motion to adopt the attached seating arrangements for the Board of Trustees for the coming year; Trustee Timmings so moved, seconded by Trustee Hayes. Trustee Treacy stated that he had never seen this done before. The Village Attorney stated that the Board has the authority to reorganize itself. Following the discussion motion carried 4-3 with Trustees Treacy, Hyland and Alter voting NO. 2 �• t Old Business Trustee Treacy stated that at the last meeting, Trustee Rey reported "progress" in his report, and he would like to know what that meant. Mayor Rey stated that progress is moving along with the pension plan for the fire department, the fire wardens are working with the ambulance corp discussing the possibility of securing additional revenue and the purchase of new fire apparatus is moving along based on the bid that we received. New Business The work session is April 9, 1991 at 8 PM, the public hearing on the budget is April 15, 1991 at 8 PM and the next regular board meeting will be held on April 16, 1991 at 8 PM. Public Comments Steve Salman of 3 Lakeview Avenue commended the Board on the time being spent to reorganize the Board properly. He stated that parking in the lot behind the bank should be free for residents attending meetings, shopping, getting cars off the street when it snows, etc. He asked that the Board consider changing this law and rescind the parking permit fees. Don Caetano of Lawrence Avenue commented that there has always been too much politics in the village and would like to see the village work together as a whole regardless of party affiliation. Mario Belanich, N.Washington St., congratulated the new Mayor and requested that during public comments, any Trustee be allowed to respond. He also requested that the original banner of the incorporation of the Village be put back behind the Mayor's seat. Edna Belanich honored the new Mayor and Board and commented that she hoped everyone on the Board would respect each other and act as adults regardless of what party line.

Y. Present: Frank Rey, Mayor Michael Hyland, Trustee John Hayes, Trustee Morris Alter, Trustee James Nazemetz, Trustee James Timmings, Trustee Sean Treacy, Trustee Also present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Frank Anzovino, Treasurer Sanjay Shah, Deputy Treasurer Mayor Rey opened the meeting with a pledge to the flag. Mayor Rey asked Village Administrator Regan to give a brief summary of the budget before the Board entertained comments from the residents. Mr. Regan summarized the proposed budget. Trustee Nazemetz asked Mr. Regan to define homestead and non-homestead. Mr. Regan explained that when the reassessment was done two years ago, properties were divided into homestead and non-homestead properties to protect the homestead properties. Homestead is a one, two or three family home, and as a result of this homestead protection, homesteads will never pay more than 60.2 8% of the property tax levy, and non-homestead, which is everything else, commercial, industrial, vacant land will always pay the remainder. Mr. Donald Caetano asked the Village Administrator who was at fault for the 100 College Arms error. Mr. Regan responded that Finnegan Associates put it on the tax roll as part of their reassessment and the Assessor at the time did not pick up the error, so it remained on the tax roll, and when the tax bills went out last year, the management protested based on their status under HUD, and the village had to remove 100 College Arms from the tax roll. Mr. Caetano suggested that Finnegan Associates accept the liability in this case, and Mr. Regan responded that because the Village was unhappy in certain areas of the reassessment done by them, that the Village did not pay the full amount of their bill, and they settled for a lower fee. He also explained that 100 College Arms is assessed for the land only, and not on the building. Trustee Alter commented that College Arms in effect pays a PILOT to the Village. Mr. Mario Belanich asked about the GM PILOT for the rail facility. Mayor Rey responded that the Village is in negotiations to settle for a dollar amount. Mr. Belanich also asked the Village to reconsider eliminating the animal control warden. He also asked if the Village is considering re-instating a Police K-9 unit. Mayor Rey responded that; he has asked the Police Chief to look into particulars and report back to the Board. Mr. Caetano asked how much it costs the Village to have the Mt. �Pleasant animal warden present in the Village. Mr. Regan responded that there is no charge to the Village. Police Chief Hayes responded that the Mt. Pleasant Animal Warden is in the Village 2 days a week and deals strictly with dogs and cats. The Village animal warden works 3 days a week and is on call nights and weekends and deals with all animals, domestic and wild life, and has recently been licensed by the Conservation Department to handle wild animals, and provides many services. The Village animal warden uses her own personal vehicle but is given an allowance. Mr. Anthony Fiorello of 3 Birch Close askegl about revenue from the garbage collection from the commercial sector. Mr. Regan stated that 2 pick-ups a week are allowed, and some accounts pay for extra pickups. Mr. Frank Rizzi addressed the Board and stated that certain businesses on Beekman Avenue leave many barrels of garbage to be picked up by Village sanitation and he also noted that private carters at one time picked up from these businesses. He feels the Village and the taxpayers are subsidizing these businesses. Mayor Rey stated that the Village will re-evaluate the amounts of garbage being picked up to see if it is in excess of the code. Mr. Caetano asked if there was a breakdown of revenues the Village receives from the extra garbage pick-ups. He also suggested that they look into Meinke Muffler and the amount of garbage picked up at that site. Mayor Rey answered Mr. Caetano's question regarding the breakdown of revenues and noted that the amount was shown on the proposed budget. Mr. Fiorello suggested curbside pick-up. This would eliminate a worker going 100 feet into the property, and possibly could reduce the work force by 2 workers. Mr. Hyland pointed out that there was a lot of senior citizens in the Village and he couldn't see them dragging a heavy container down a driveway. Mr, Fiorello suggested putting a sign on the senior's windows and Mr. Hyland stated that the Village would still need an additional v/orker. Mr. Hyland also stated one of the best services the Village has to offer is the garbage collection, and feels that it should not be tampered with. Mr. Belanich asked about the proposed amount in the budget for Warner Library and how did we arrive at that figure, He feels that the Village should pay based on the number of cards issued to residents of North Tarrytown. Mayor Rey stressed the free services the library offers. He also questioned the item on the budget for the skating attendant at the Tarrytown Lakes, Mayor' responded that it was our contribution to the cost of hiring an attendant. Mr. Belanich also questioned the amount paid to maintain Patriots Park. Mr.Fitzpatrick questioned budget item Maintainer of Alarms. Mr. Regan explained that last year this item was budgeted at less, however, in July the contract went out to bid, and Mr. Morabito was the lowest bidder. New budget reflects the amount bid. 2 �Mr. Fiorello questioned dumping fees at Charles Point. Mr. Rizzi asked who prepared the budget. Mayor Rey responded that this was the budget former Mayor Gandolfo presented to the Board. She requested input from all Department Heads. Mr. Caetano asked about the rental income from the apartment over the Water Department Garage, and Mr. Rizzi asked who paid the rent. The Treasurer commented that the rent comes from Social Services through the Section 8 program. Mr. Caetano commented that he figured the rental income to be over $9,000 a year. At this point, a long disussion ensued over the cost of repairs of the Water Department garage. Mr. Galella stated that the Village should not be in the real estate business, it should be in the business of collecting taxes. Mr. Blalock suggested that a special committee citizens be set up to review real estate matters. of private He also asked why the C. 0. C. has not had an increase in its allocations for the past 4 years. Mr. Checchi responded it was based on a percentage. Mr. Checchi also noted that previous administrations had decided to stay with the percentage formula. Mayor Rey stated that a Citizens Budget Review committee made the recommendation not to transfer more than $225,000 from the water department. They also suggested increasing water rates. Mr. Nicholas cicchetti commented that the homestead tax rate would be 5% more if the water department transfer was less than $225,000. He also suggested that the board look into the actual dates to improve the quality of the water system as mandated by the State. Mr. Galella feels raising the water rates would mean double taxation for the residents of the Village. Mr. Belanich pointed out that taxes are deductible, water bills are not. Mr. Galella suggested that the Village pay its laborers more than the $6.24 it presently offers now. He suggested they should be paid similar to the Meter Maids at $7.50 per hour. Mr. Checchi described the duties of the Meter Enforcement Officer and asked that the Board consider increasing her salary. Mr. Belanich noted that the Village health insurance was increased by 15%. Mr. Shah discussed how they arrived at the 15% increase. 3 �\<o. Being no further business, meeting was adjourned at 9:50PM Respectfully submitted, William T.

PUBLIC HEARING This is a continuation of a Public Hearing to consider amending the New York State Emergency Tenant Protection Act of 1974 to apply only to those residential rental properties that contain ten or more rental units. Mr. Demetrios Kringas of 14 9 Webber Avenue stated that he owned a five family apartment house and spends more on repairs and maintenance then he receives in rents. He presented the Board with a list of municipalities that have 12 or more units covered under ETPA. Ms. Anne Pauletti co-owner of 190 Valley Street described her experiences dealing with the Rent Guideline Board and her problems trying to register the apartment house with ETPA and submitting leases and rent increase applications. She stated she has owned the building for three years and has invested over $200,000. in improving the building, and has not been able to increase the rents. Mr. Peter Kringas, of 14 9 Webber Avenue, said he presented materials to the Board at the Work Session of April 9 and hoped the Board would act on passing the resolution to offer relief to the small apartment house landlord. Mrs. Patricia Kringas presented ecomomic information to the Board and asked that they pass the resolution to amend the ETPA ruling for North Tarrytown. Mr. Brand Reese, President of the Apartment Owners Association explained the difficult economic situtation for the small building landlords, as did Mr. Albert Annunziata, President of the Small Apartment Owners Advisory Board. 1 �Mr. James Tierney of 2 55 North Broadway stated if the ETPA did not exist, there would be more homeless people. He commented that in his case, he has continued to pay increases for improvements in his rent for years. The increase stays on his rent long after these items should have been paid. He inquired as to when the Board plans to adopt a resolution for senior citizens over the age of 62, and who live on fixed incomes, can be exempt from rent increases due to repairs. Trustee Treacy explained the Board has held off making a decision until they can research what the Village's exposure would be if the Board passed a resolution granting the senior citizen rent exemption. Mr. Sol Shapiro commented that he owns a six family unit in the Village, and loses money every year on the property due to higher tax and increases in the water bills. Mr. Peter Kringas stated that only 2 9 buildings and 175 tenants would be affected by passing this resolution. Mr. Donald Caetano spoke in favor of eliminating the ETPA law for the small apartment house owners. Trustee Timmings moved to close the Public Hearing. seconded by Trustee Hyland. Motion carried. Motion was Trustee Treacy commented that the small landlords are being penalized for obeying the ETPA law. He spoke in favor of passing the resolution and the Board should approve the amending of the ETPA law for North Tarrytown. He feels it would encourage the small landlords to stay and improve their buildings. Mayor Rey stated that he would like to see a tenant advisory council formed and he would ask them for their input on the proposed amendment to insure that people will not be dispossessed from their apartments if rents reach beyond the tenants ability to pay. The Mayor would like certain items placed in the Village's legislation whereby 75 to 80% of the increases would revert back into the properties. Trustee Hyland moved to remove ETPA from 10 units or less. Trustee Treacy seconded the motion. Trustee Timmings commented that he did not feel qualified to vote on the resolution at this time and felt that not enough tenants have been given the opportunity to address the board. He then asked for a motion to table the matter until the next Board Meeting. After some discussion, Trustee Hyland moved to withdraw his motion and to table the resolution until the May 7th Meeting. Trustee Nazemetz seconded the motion. Vote was six in favor of tabling the resolution and 2 H I �i one nay. Trustee Treacy opposed.

Communications, Petitions and Requests Mayor Rey read aloud a letter from the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation dated April 12, 1991 informing the Village that the Philipse Manor Railroad Station at Riverside Drive in North Tarrytown has been listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places. He also read aloud a letter from Mr. Parra of 49 New Broadway regarding sidewalk replacement at that address. Trustee Treacy read aloud a letter addressed to Village Administrator William Regan regarding full time employment for the Building Inspector and Highway Department Foreman.

Pie also read letters from Annegret Rice, and Daniel Nuzzi of Smith William Memorials in favor of keeping James Margotta,the present building inspector, as a part time employee. PUBLIC COMMENTS Mr. Albert Pirro, of Pirro and Monsell, addressed the Board on behalf of the Halpern Revitalization Project. He briefly went over the history of the project for the past three years. He stated that the original proposal called for 1500 units and it has been scaled down to 350 or less units. Since 1987 Halpern has submitted at least 3 different plans for a revitalization proj ect. They have paid for attorneys and a consultant to review the concept on behalf of the Village. 3 �He asked the Board to honor the concept plan that was adopted in October, 1990, so that the plan may move on to the next step. He feels that the Finance Committee would be more effective when the Village deals with the Environmental Impact Statement, question #8. Trustee Treacy suggested that the Board honor its commitment and get in touch with the attorney hired by the Village to move along on this project. After a long discussion it was suggested by Village Counsel to hold a Work Session to study the draft submitted by our attorney, Brown and Wood. Mr. Regan commented that one of the reasons for the delay was the last three pages of a draft faxed to the Village by Mr.Pirro's office could not be read. The Village has made two requests to Mr. Pirro's office asking that the originals be sent, so they can be forwarded to Brown and Wood for their comments. Mr. Mario Belanich addressed the Board and asked about condemnation proceedings in the Halpern revitalization plan and questioned the work done on Riverside Drive in the Manor. Mr. John Tucci addressed the Board and spoke of the recent parking problems on Pine Close. Trustee Hyland made some suggestions to help alleviate the problems. Mr. Mario DiFelice approached the Board and invited everyone to attend the tree ceremony to be held in front of Village Hall in memory of Thomas J. Cavalieri on Saturday, April 20. He then asked Mayor Rey if the rumors that have been circulating were true that three Italian Americans, who are Village employees, would be losing their jobs. Mayor Rey responded that certain personnel changes were recommended to reduce the budget and that it was true that these jobs were part of that discussion. Mr. DiFelice asked if their removal would decrease his taxes, or were these employees to be replaced. He also asked if the Board considered the ages of these employees, as all of them were over 60, and what the effects of either dismissal or demotions would be on their social security benefits and pensions. Mr. Rey commented that some positions would be filled by existing staff with an adjustment to salaries. Trustee Treacy asked who was making the study on the effects of the dismissals on the budget. Mayor Rey responded that discussions took place during Executive Session. Mr. DiFelice asked if minutes were taken during the Executive Session. Mayor Rey stated no as a final decision was not reached. 4 �Mayor Rey responded with regard to the Building Inspector that he wanted the Board to review the position and consider hiring a full time Building Inspector. Ms. Joan Shibetti addressed the Board and spoke against the present building inspector she felt that the Building Inspector should be a full time position. Mr. JDon Caetano spoke in favor of the present Building Inspector, and stated that politics should not influence personnel decisions . At this point, a heated discusssion took place between Trustees Treacy and Nazemetz with regard to personnel changes. Trustee Timmings stated that these matters were only under discussion and decisions have not been finalized. Mrs. Katherine Cappello addressed Trustee Timmings and commented that her husband, Mr. Manny Cappello, Foreman of the Water Department, was informed by Mr. Regan, Village Administrator that the Foreman's position was being eliminated due to budget cuts. Mr. James Margotta, Building Inspector, rebutted some of the rumors that have been circulating about his qualifications. Trustee Timmings moved to close the Public Comments section of the Meeting, seconded by Trustee Hayes. Motion carried. Mayor's Report Mayor Rey stated that the New York State Department of Health will meet with residents who live in the area of the Duracell site to discuss the results of the recent mercury tests. A second meeting is scheduled for May 1, to discuss expanding the testing area. He also announced that on Saturday April 20, at 12 noon there will be a tree ceremony held in honor of the memory of Mr. Thomas J. Cavalieri, in front of Village Hall. He announced the Department of Recreation will plan Earth Day activities for Sunday April 21, 1991, and it may involve cleaning up Douglas or Barnhardt parks. Administrator's Report The Administrator stated that there was a resolution on the agenda to sell at auction 6 pieces of highway equipment. The matter of the plow listed as an sale item will be at the discretion of the Administrator. He announced that the sidewalk program was moving rapidly along and that work in front of the Van Tassel Apartments would be starting the following day. 5 �I He stated that the Water Departments Bids were due on Monday, April 22, 1991 at 10:00 AM. Mr. Regan stated that Devries Field has been finished and the field has been seeded. He mentioned recent discussions regarding Recreation Fund monies. He stated that $77,000 was collected in recreation fees since the beginning of the program and all the money has been spent on village parks, primarily Devries Field. In 1988, the Capital Fund borrowed $30,000 from the Recreation Fee fund rather than go to the market and pay interest on the borrowed money. Surpluses have been identified in other capital projects and the monies will be replenished shortly to the Recreation Fee Fund and the remaining funds will be used to finish the Devries Project. Trustee Timmings asked the Village Administrator if there was a minimum bid on the items being sold at auction. He responded no as the equipment is quite old. Resolutions (see attached) Old Business Trustee Treacy commented that he was happy with the new seating arrangement. Trustee Treacy also reported that he spoke with Chuck Lesnick of the UDC and they are being affected by the State's budgetary problems and will hold off on making any decisions regarding the facade grant for the Village until May, when their Board of Directors meet. Trustee Treacy was also informed by UDC that the Village was in very good shape for receiving this grant. He cited General Motors' problems with shut-downs of their assembly lines, and how it has affected business in the Village, and with more shut-downs, more business will leave the Village. Mayor Rey reported that the Village's Insurance Broker attended an earlier meeting with the Trustees and left a packet of insurance information for their review. Mayor Rey also reported that he received a letter from the Sleepy Hollow Taxpayer's Association regarding road work throughout the Manor.

At 7 PM Mayor Rey entertained a motion to enter into Executive Session to discuss litigation and personnel matters; Trustee Hyland so moved, seconded by Trustee Timmings and motion carried. Present: Mayor Rey Trustee Timmings Trustee Alter Trustee Treacy (Arrived Late) Trustee Nazemetz Trustee Hyland Trustee Hayes Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Robert Ponzini, Village Attorney During Executive Session discussion ensued on litigation and personnel matters but no formal decisions were made. Mayor Rey called the regular meeting to order at 8:40 PM. Mayor Rey asked if there were any Trustees who wished to speak before the budget was adopted. Trustee Treacy stated that he did some research on the savings that the Village would gain by eliminating the Water Foreman position. By becoming a teamster, Manny Cappello would be entitled to overtime, longevity, payment of unused personal days, additional holiday, welfare fund payments, etc. which would bring the savings to the Village around $658. which would not have any great effect on the tax rate, but would leave the department without any supervisory personnel and recommended that the elimination of this position be reconsidered. Trustee Hyland stated that the 12% increase is much too high and asked the Board to reconsider transferring another $100,000. from the Water Department fund to bring the tax rate down. Trustee Hyland moved to transfer $100,000. from the Water Department budget into the General fund, seconded by Trustee Alter. Motion failed 4-3. Trustees Hyland, Treacy and Alter voting Yes and Trustees Hayes, Nazemetz, Timmings and Mayor Rey voting No. Trustee Treacy commented that we could see a 1% decrease in the proposed tax increase if we increase the amount of money we were receiving from General Motors on the PILOT payment, therefore Trustee Treacy moved to increase the PILOT payment received from GM from $30,000. to $56,000., second by Trustee Alter. Discussion ensued among the Trustees. 1 �Trustee Treacy asked if the line item for the Assistant Foreman is the amount he will be paid over the next year. The Administrator stated that the money listed in the Foreman1 s line is two thirds of the salary, the other third is in the Water Department fund, a total of approximately $38,000. Trustee Hyland stated that with the sale of the Water Department building, money saved in not repairing the building and no money spent in the move to River Street, he felt that there is no need for this huge increase in the tax rate. After the discussion, a vote was taken on the original motion of increasing the PILOT payment to $56,000. Motion failed 4-3 with Trustees Treacy, Alter and Hyland voting Yes and Trustees Hayes, Timmings, Nazemetz and Mayor Rey voting No. Mayor Rey commented that if the payment comes in at $56,000. he would be the first to announce it and it would be put towards next years taxes. Trustee Treacy moved any additional revenues that are found, whether it be through increased revenues on assessibles or through state aid, be used for property tax relief in next year's budget precluding emergencies, seconded by Trustee Nazemetz. More discussion ensued. Trustee Timmings commented that department heads made many sacrifices in preparing their budgets and asked that the Board keep this in mind if any additional revenues should be received. Trustee Treacy stated that if the County sales tax is approved, any revenues received must be used for tax relief. Trustee Alter commented that the Board should adopt the budget process on an all year basis as they have been doing in the past two months, priority given to the abatement of our taxes. Motion then passed unanimously. Public Comments Mario Belanich asked if the money from the sale of the Water Department building can be used immediately to reduce taxes. Trustees Hyland and Treacy stated that it is already in the budget. He also commented about the public hearing to increase the water rate and didn't understand why they wanted to increase the rate if that fund had a surplus. He also asked who the title of 126 Valley street was going to be transferred to. Mayor Rey stated that this is a letter of intent to transfer the lot back to the Housing Authority so that the Housing Authority can apply for a grant to make improvements in that lot. They are the only one eligible to apply for this $100,000. grant. Trustee Treacy stated that we would still own it, maintain it and collect the parking fees. Mr. Belanich asked what is holding up the sale of 79 College Avenue; Trustee Hyland stated that it is being held up by HUD and the Village Attorney stated that any transfer is subject to HUD's approval. 2 �I George Samaras, owner of 175 Valley Street: which includes a deli, addressed the Board with his concerns over the huge tax increase. He stated that this is going to force the merchants out of North Tarrytown. He cannot pass this tax increase along to his tenants because of the ETPA law. Frank O'Brien, owner of two buildings on Beekman Avenue, stated that he feels this tax increase is much too high and he also cannot pass this increase onto his tenants because of ETPA. Richard Ayers, owner of a deli on Beekman Avenue, stated that this tax increase is outrageous and soon our Village will become a ghost town because merchants will be leaving. Mr. Kringas of Webber Avenue stated that the ETPA issue still has not been resolved and this tax increase will be a great hardship to him as well as others under this law. Trustee Treacy received a fax from the attorney Mr. Oiament who has the wording for a suggested resolution that would remove these buildings from ETPA and he has been invited to the next Board meeting to discuss this further and to answer any of the Boards' questions and the Board hopes to make a decision on this issue at that time. Nicholas Cicchetti, representing the Sleepy Hollow Taxpayers Association, asked if the Mayor received a letter from them. Mayor Rey read the letter which discussed personnel matters and their dismay over proposed changes in the 91-92 budget which would result in an even larger tax burden to the residents. Mayor Rey stated that he is very unhappy about the tax increase but we had a big increase in worker's compensation insurance and other large increases, but they did reduce it from the original proposed budget figure. Trustee Hyland again asked that the Board reconsider transferring another $100,000. from the Water Department fund to bring the tax rate down. Mayor Rey and Trustee Timmings stated that some money must be kept in the Water Department fund for upcoming projects and everyone has made some difficult decisions in this package for the budget, and to maintain that money in the Water Department is crucial. The Mayor stated that the citizen's ad hoc committee had recommended that the amount in the Water Department fund be reduced but not eliminated. Trustee Hyland commented that when the anticipated revenue does come in, it could be transferred back into the Water Department. Resolutions- Attached 3 �Ji Executive Session Trustee Timmings moved to adjourn to executive Session to discuss litigation and personnel matters, second by Trustee Hyland and motion carried 6-0. The Village Attorney asked that a motion be made to authorize payment in the amount of $2,135.76 to Mary Fitzsimmons for damage done to her vehicle by our sanitation truck, Trustee Timmings so moved, seconded by Trustee Treacy and motion carried 6-0. Discussion ensued on the elimination of the position of the Water Department Foreman. Trustee Treacy again stated that he felt there would be no great savings in eliminating that position. Discussion ensued on salary increases for non-union employees. Resolutions # 4/65/91, #4/66/91 and #4/67/91 pertaining to the above discussions are attached. Brief discussion ensued on the status of the burned out building at 78 Beekman Avenue. There being no further business, Trustee Timmings moved to adjourn the meeting, second by Trustee Hayes and motion carried.

Present: Mayor Rey Trustee Timmings Trustee Alter Trustee Treacy Trustee Nazemetz Trustee Hyland Trustee Hayes Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Robert J. Ponzini, Village Attorney Mayor Rey called the meeting to order with a pledge to the flag. Mayor Rey entertained a motion to move the Public Comment section to the beginning of the agenda; Trustee Treacy so moved, seconded by Trustee Hayes and motion carried. Public Comments Peter Kringas, 14 9 Webber Avenue, again pleaded with the Board to amend the NYS Emergency Tenant Protection Act. He reiterated what he had stated at previous meetings about the hardship on him and other landlords in his position. William Diament, Attorney representing the landlords of small buildings, commented that tenants could challenge landlords by asking them to produce records to the ETPA Board showing their losses. There could be a solution by passing the proposed resolution with certain agreements between landlord and tenants. Robert Friou an Attorney who is an advocate for poor tenants submitted the attached letter regarding some possible alternatives to amending this law. Mrs. Pauletti, co-owner of 190 Valley Street, repeated what she had stated at previous meetings ; she is losing money on this building and asked for the Board's help by amending this law. Mr. Diament stated that most of the suggestions made by Mr. Friou are not going to work. Mr. Friou stated that he would furnish additional information if needed to help both tenants and landlords. Miguel Jimenez representing the Spanish people of the Village asked the Board to please keep the ETPA law. There are many buildings with many violations and these people are paying large rents and felt that these people are being forced to move out of the Village. Mr. Kringas and Ms. Pauletti stated that they are losing money and can prove it. Ms. Pauletti commented the work done in their building is done in good faith and she is looking for help from the Board. Mr.Tierney, a tenant asked the Board not to pass this resolution. 1 �Mr. Jimenez stated that more than 50% of the apartments that should be under ETPA are not. Paul Brannigan of Century 21 commented that some buildings with six, seven or more units are selling for less than four and five unit buildings because of the ETPA regulations. Some owners are paying such high taxes and they cannot raise their rents. He also stated that North. Tarrytown did alot for the poorer people when urban renewal came in and other villages and towns fought it. Frank O'Brien commented that ETPA was primarily adopted to protect low income families and was intended for larger cities. Taxes on comparable buildings in Westchester are much higher and should not be included in ETPA. He recommended that ETPA be abolished completely. Mr. Demetrious Kringas also asked that the Board amend ETPA. Mr, Tony Iannarelli asked the Board to eliminate ETPA altogether; the cost of insurance, repairs, fuel etc. keep climbing and these landlords cannot afford to keep their buildings running. Mrs. Edna Belanich stated that she sympathized with those who are affected by ETPA but was opposed to the use of such words as ethnic, minority, etc. She asked that a decision not be based on emotions. Mayor Rey entertained a motion to close public comments section and the regular order of business be resumed, Trustee Hayes so moved, seconded by Trustee Timmings and carried. Trustee Treacy asked if we would resume other public comments; the Village Attorney stated that the public can speak at the next section of public comments. To clear up any misconception; the Village Attorney noted for the record that this was not a reopening of the public hearing; all the Board did was to change the order of the agenda to allow public comments by any members of the public who were here tonight. Most of the comments were on the one issue of the public hearing that was closed at the last meeting. Mayor Rey asked for a discussion by the Board on the Public Hearing. The Village Attorney stated that at the last meeting there was a motion to table; therefore if there is to be a vote, discussion or anything done, there must be a motion to remove it from the table. Trustee Hyland so moved ,second by Trustee Treacy and motion carried. Discussion ensued among the Trustees. Trustee Treacy commented that both tenants and landlords in the Village are worried about issues that are important to them and believes the resolution presented by Mr. Diament with certain additions would reach a middle ground that would affect all those concerned. William Regan stated that the minutes of the previous meeting reflect that Trustee Hyland made a motion to adopt the legislation as proposed on March 5, 1991 which reads: 2 �43 Be It Resolved the Board of Trustees schedules a Public Hearing for Tuesday, March 26, 1991 to consider amending the NYS Emergency Tenant Protection Act of 1974, Chapter 567- Laws of 1974 to apply only to those residential rental properties within the Village of North Tarrytown that contain ten or more rental units. Village Attorney commented that if the Board wanted to vote on something that is less restrictive than that local law, they can do so without renoticing and without having a public hearing, but voting on something more restrictive requires renotice of another public hearing. Trustee Treacy moved to amend the amendment that is on the table now so that the Board can discuss an equitable settlement between the landlords and the tenants, seconded by Trustee Alter. Trustee Treacy then read the following proposed amendment: NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Board of Trustees of the Village of North Tarrytown does hereby amend the New York State Emergency Tenant Protection Act of 1974 Chapter 576-Laws of 1974, in such manner as the said enactment shall no longer apply to residential, rental units located within structures containing fewer than JH) such units; and for which such structures the owners thereof shall have undertaken the following steps: 1. Agreed in writing to enter into a written lease with the tenant in occupancy as of the effective date of this resolution for a period of 2_4 months at the present legal maximum rent. 2. Agree to enroll in a voluntary Association of owners in the Village of North Tarrytown organized for the purpose of insuring that no excessive above market rents shall be charged or collected; such organization requiring the approval of tha Board of Trustees with respect to its membership, organization, and standards. (Trustee Treacy suggested that the Mayor or one of the Trustees be on the Association.) 3. Such owner shall agree in writing not to apply this enactment as against any tenant who has been in occupancy for at least 5 years and who reached the age of 6j2. as of the date of this enactment. 4. The owner agrees in writing not to apply this enactment in such manner as to require a monthly rental in excess of one-third of the gross income of all persons regularly residing in the said unit. 5. Additional profits will be limited to 20% per year, 80% of increased rental monies will be used for improvements to the property. Discussion ensued. Trustee Hyland asked who would enforce this and what could be done if one landlord did not want to agree to these regulations? Trustee Treacy responded, the Voluntary Association would be the enforcer and that is why representation from the Board is very important; each landlord must agree to enroll in this Association and before the Board votes on this amendment, this type of Association must be in place. The Mayor 3 �\x\ commented the Village would then become an overseer. What power would the Board have if there was misrepresentation? Trustee Treacy stated that the Village could opt back into the ETPA. Trustee Timmings commented that he did not feel it was the Village's place to come between the tenant and the landlord. Trustee Treacy stated that the Board would not be an overseeing body; we would just have a membership in this association. He would get in touch with the Village of Bronxville to have their representative of the Association come and talk to us. Mr. Diament and Mr. Friou should attend a work session to discuss this further. After more discussion, Trustee Timmings moved to postpone any decision on the ETPA amendment as proposed originally until May 21, 1991 meeting, second by Trustee Alter and motion carried 5-0 with Trustee Hyland abstaining. A five minute recess took place. Public Comments Nicholas Cicchetti, a former trustee, commented that about a year ago the County introduced legislation to increase the County sales tax and the last board expressed their support and wanted to know if the current Board felt the same. Mayor Rey stated this Board does continue to support this legislation and we are waiting for our representatives in Albany to do something positive. Mr. Cicchetti hoped the Board would restate our support of this legislation and find out from Peter Sullivan why it's being held up in the Assembly. He suggested that a non-partisan citizen committee be formed to come up with recommendations as to how the Village should structure its finances in the future. Mayor Rey entertained a motion that the Board send a follow-up letter to the members of the Assembly restating our desire to have this legislation passed and include in the letter the tax increases which were forced upon the Village, Trustee Timmings so moved, second by Trustee Alter and motion carried 6-0. Approval of Minutes Trustee Hyland moved to approve the minutes of April 16, 1991 as written, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 6-0. Trustee Hyland moved to approve the minutes of the Special meeting of April 30, 1991 as written, second by Trustee Alter and motion carried 6-0.

Ponzini RJP/bak Agreed and Accepted: THE VILLAGE OF NQRTH, TARRYTOWN By: <T77s �51 R o b e r t E. F r i o u 114 Kelburne Avenue North Tarrytown, NY 10591 (914) 631-4361 May 7, 1991 To; The Mayor and Trustees of the Village of North Tarrytown at a meeting May 7, 1991 Regarding: Consideration of modification of impact of ETPA. I am speaking to you as a long term resident of this Village. I am not here tonight to advocate the position of any tenant group. It is true that clients of mine would be affected by the change now being proposed to the ETPA. But I am not here as their lawyer; tonight I am speaking for myself. I do have an interest in protecting low income housing and low income tenants. I have pursued that interest during my entire residence in this Village. I believe I have followed a rational and moderate course. I respect the rights of both tenants and landlords. It is my experience that usually landlords have the edge over low income tenants; my professional advocay has been for tenants — I cannot go on both sides of that fence. The Emergency Standard The ETPA is a State law which has been in effect for a long lime. It prevents haste in landlord tenant relations. It provides a state policy of strong support for tenants rights in a structure which is intended to provide standards of Adde application which should protect landlord's reasonable expectations. Hasty and arbitrary actions by landlords or tenants then should not be the basis for disposition of individual cases. The ETPA is applicable w h e n there is a housing emergency in a community. A housing emergency may be defined as a vacancy rate of less than 5%. There is such an emergency in North Tarrytown, in low income housing. There is such an emergency in Westchester County. There is such an emergency in N e w York City. The emergency rules protect the community against loss of housing which, already in crisis, is needed if we are to have low-income people live in our communities. These tend to be immigrant families — labor pool entry level people. A concept under which families with lower incomes must live, say, in Putnam County, or further away, is simply not a realistic concept for our community. - 1 - �*v For this reason, and out of simple human compassion, I advocate the ETPA. Many families here in North Tarrytown are protected by this law. Chipping away at its protection would simply add to the vast' numbers of homeless people -- at increasing cost to the taxpayers. The Public Cost of Homelessness We need not support programs for low income housing purely out of compassion or sympathy. The cost to each of us as taxpayers is relevant to y o u r considerations. N e w York City and Westchester County do have a crisis of homelessness similar in size to that of some third world countries. A man I met in Albany last week — one a young and brilliant young lawyer working in this field - had just returned from N e w Delhi. He said that the homeless situation an New York City and N e w Delhi appeared visually to be much the same. That is an indictment of past housing development policies. Westchester County has a homelessness crisis perhaps larger than New York Cities. Here the homeless are not sleeping subways — we don't have subways; but our homeless are stacked in motels in places like Elmsford. The cost of this crisis is enormous. We the taxpayers carry that cost. W h e n a landlord complains about our Village taxes keep in mind that eliminating ETPA protection will make a number of people homeless at significant cost to the public. A n d we are that public. The newspaper article by Mr. Bandler quoted a landlord as complaining that she could not raise her fees from $350 to $400 for certain size apartments. She wants to renovate and charge $900. I assure you gentlemen that I k n o w many sober, hardworking, tenants in this Village who cannot afford a $900 apartment even w h e n working two or more jobs a day. To raise thos? rents of hers to that higher level, more than a 100% increase, will directly create homelessness. Achieving a Competence Level for Landlords Not eveiyone is competent to operate low income housing. Special competence is essential to success! How to achieve economy in all systems; h o w to achieve income maximization through creativity; h o w to gain responsible, cooperative effort from all tenants — not everyone is expert in all these necessary skills! High expectations of landlords may easily be dashed. That is the free market of investment in low income housing — a field fraught with difficulty, subject to public interest regulation; with high requirements on delivery of services and low expectations for profitability. Caveat - 2 - �J3- emptor! Landlords who are not competent to operate low income housing should not expect the law to be changed to provide them with succor. Landlord's w h o expect to drive through loopholes and then find there is no loophole should not expect the law to be changed to relieve them' of the burdens of investment in difficult situations. Landlord's who invest knowing that properties are subject to a public interest and regulation should not expect to be relieved when the difficulties become insurmountable. Landlord's should expect to be held to responsible actions and tenants to cooperation and responsibility in the common interest. Going back to the lady who wants to increase rents from $350 to $900: should we not think very carefully about filling that landlady's wish to more than double her rents. I suggest that we should move with caution while recognizing that she may need a sympathetic, knowledgeable, support system to help her find her way. I say to her: I am not your enemy, I think there is help at hand. The Availability of Alternatives to Ownership and Operation by Sole Landlords Last week I visited Albany to receive an award which I accepted with considerable humility. The lawyers present included many brilliant lung lawyers working on new options for low income housing. \ When I described our situation in this Village those young public spirited lawyers urged me to visit the Community Development Legal Assistance Center (CDLAC), in which they work, to receive an infusion of their expertise. That expertise reveals alternatives to the ownership and operation of low income properties by sole landlords who may be more money oriented than creative. Projects the CDLAC helps develop include Mutual Housing Associations and Cornmunity Land Trusts. These are legal entities in which low-income cooperative or rental apartment buildings band together to provide common services and democratic management. They also provide a legal structure that assures long-term affordability of the buildings they include. CDLAC also provides legal help for not-for-profit organizations seeking to develop permanent low-income housing. The Federal low-income housing tax credit, provided for by the Tax Reform Act of 1986, allows certain investors to take tax credits based on their ownership of low- 3 - �I I <o A income housing projects. CDLAC provides co-counsel with pro bono attorneys to set up organizations in which the for-profit owner -- such as those wishing to change our local law — may become a general partner with not-for-profit tax syndicated projects. Corrimunity Capital Bank. CDLAC has helped to create a special bank providing capital for low income housing. Low-income cooperatives are another approach that can work if guided by the right people. No doubt I could go on to discuss even more of these highly innovative approaches which deal with creative methods of saving low income housing by other means than simply taking it all out of the pocket-books of tenants or landlords. Useful alternative approaches can be found working n o w right here in Westchester County. There are organizations which will take over low income projects, repair them and operate t h e m in an economical manner. It takes very special knowhow and creativity to do this. Such an organization is WestHab in Elmsford. An organization such as WestHab has very specialized know-how. It has very specialized personnel. It is not an amateur landlord. It is a fully professional organization that can take over low income properties, put them in shape, keep the rent levels reasonable, live with the ETTA, keep low income properties on the Village tax rolls. Landlords! If you need advice it may be at hand; if you need a partner with specialized know-how one may be found. Within the above options we can see the possibility of management and other guidance and support for landlords. The first step for the landlord need not be a cry for public support. My Tentative Proposals I earnestly recommend that this Board consider the following steps in lieu of hasty destruction of protective legislation designed at the State level and in effect for many years: 1. Form a Low Income Housing Commission. The purpose of the commission would be to inventory low income apartments in the Village (this may have been done), determine the vacancy rate (this not just a matter of counting empties), investigate landlord (and tenant) complaints, determine whether they have substance, or are the result of a need for creative support in the particular market place. - 4 �2. At the request of landlords investigate particular cases of claimed begelct by the Housing Division and determine if advice, assistance, or even intervention, w o u l d be warranted. 3. Try to determine whether innovative low income housing approaches w o u l d be of help to landlords and tenants. 4. Let that commission keep the Mayor and Board informed for a year, say, w h e n there would be evaulation. 5. The commission need not be impartial but should be balanced so that landlords and tenants have reasonable and fair representation. Conclusion This preliminary report is somewhat hastily prepared. Some of the statements I h a v e made are subject to review and perhaps to modification. If you have interest in these thoughts I should like to have leave to improve and clarify any points I have made. Thank you for your time. — Robert E.

Friou was one of 12 lawyers statewide named winners of the bar's 1991 President's Pro Bono Service Award. The award goes to lawyers who donate civil legal ervices to the poor and elderly* Friou, who has practiced law JgSfor 51 years, has worked as a ^volunteer lawyer at Westchester ^ L e g a l Services for the past two Shears, handling dozens of housing ^disputes. His work has helped *J|k ee P roofs over the heads of scores "' of poor families on the brink of homelessness. Don't think that Friou just started helping the poor since his retirement. He has been actively involved in pro bono cases for most of his career. In fact, during World War II, he helped start the U.S. Army's first pro bono program at Aberdeen, Md. He later donated.his services to the poor as a member of a New York City corporate law firm and as the head of his own firm in Westchester. How refreshing. That is particularly true when you consider that the state's highest ranking judge, Sol Wachtler, is threatening to force lawyers to accept pro bono cases if they continue to ignore the poor's increasing need for legal services.

Present: Mayor Frank J. Rey Trustees: •James J. Timmings, III Sean Treacy Morris Alter James Nazemetz Michael Hyland •John T. Hayes, Jr. Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Robert J. Ponzini, Village Attorney Mayor Rey called the meeting to order with a pledge to the flag. Public Hearing The Deputy Village Clerk read the attached public hearing notice regarding the proposed increase in the water rates. Trustee Treacy moved to open the hearing to the public, second by Trustee Alter and carried. Nicholas Cicchetti commented that revenue was received from the sale of the Water Department building and did not understand why there was a need to increase the water rents and wondered if any of this revenue will go towards the upcoming water filtration. The Mayor stated that with the expenses involved in the move of the Water Department to River Street and the purchase of equipment which will be needed there, the revenue will not amount to as much as anticipated. Chick Galel.la stated that raising the water rates right after a huge tax increase is just another form of taxation. When needed, why not float a bond for repairs to the filtration system. Miguel Jimenez protested the proposed increase in water rates. He commented landlords will raise tenants rents. Mrs. Kantowitz of Cedar Street commented that everyone should try to conserve water. There being no further comments, Trustee Timmings moved to close the hearing, second by Trustee Treacy and motion carried 6-0. Discussion ensued among the Trustees. Trustee Timmings stated that a water rate increase at this time is too excessive along with the tax increase. Trustee Hyland stated that revenue received from the sale of the Water Department building will be more than $50,000. since we saved money by relocating to River Street by using our men during a normal work week. If any major problems arise, we can borrow the money. 1 �Mayor Rey commented that the money derived from the sale of the building was only a one time proposition and not an ongoing revenue producing concept. Trustee Treacy commented that if there is no increase in the water rate at this time, money will be taken from other sources such as a transfer from the Water fund to the General fund. Trustee Hayes asked if we could wait to do work until something does happen and Trustee Treacy commented that if the system does break it would be considered an emergency and we could definitely bond in this case. Trustee Alter commented that he also was not in the water rates at this time, but we should process all year long and should start preparing more discussion the Board unanimously rejected the water rates at this time. favor of raising be in a budget right now. After any increase in Approval of Minutes Trustee Treacy moved to approve the minutes of the Budget Hearing of April 15, 1991 as written, second by Trustee Nazemetz and motion carried 6-0. Trustee Hyland moved to approve the minutes of the May 7, 1991 meeting as written, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 6-0. Approval of Warrants Trustee Treacy moved to approve the warrants and authorize the Treasurer to pay the bills, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 6-0. Total of the General fund was $149,206.33 and the Water Department fund was $38,174.73. Communications, Petitions £ Requests The Deputy Clerk read attached correspondence from the Fire Council addressed to the Mayor and Board regarding action taken at several Fire Council meetings. Trustee Hyland moved to approve the action taken at these meetings, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 6-0. The Deputy Clerk read correspondence from John Ryan, secretary of Union Hose requesting the Village purchase a waxer/buffer for use by all fire companies. Request will be discussed at work session. Trustee Treacy read attached correspondence from Ronald Greene regarding the proposal of a full time Building Inspector. Mayor Rey read correspondence from Alex Fudali of 117 Van Tassel Avenue who was representing several residents of that area requesting that they be considered in the next curb improvement project. Refer to Public Works Department. The Mayor was in receipt of a letter from the Sleepy Hollow Family Festival of the Tarrytowns inviting everyone to attend their festival on June 2, 1991 from 11 AM to 5 PM. 2 �Mayor Rey received a request from Reverend Santiago of the Rock of Salvation church to hold open air religious services at Friendship Park at 6:30 PM starting the last Saturday in May until the second Saturday in September. (Discuss at work session) Trustee Hayes will attend a Library meeting on Thursday 7:30 PM. Public Comments Chick Galella wanted to know what the Beekman Avenue sidewalk program cost. The Administrator stated the contract amount was $792,000. but when it»s completed it will be under that figure. The Mayor stated the cost to the Village would be approximately $456,000. Trustee Treacy commented that this money was in the capital budget and ib being funded over five years. Mr. Galella wanted to know why a Trustee was reading a letter addressed to the Mayor. Trustee Treacy stated that the letter was addressed to the Mayor and the Board. The Mayor stated that he extended Trustee Treacy the courtesy of reading this letter because it dealt with a personnel matter that Trustee Treacy had taken a position on. Mr. Galella asked what the benches on the Avenue cost. Trustee Nazemetz stated $750. including installation. Mr. Galella requested that the residents be shown the breakdown of the final cost of the project; the Mayor stated as soon as it is completed it will be made available. Don Caetano wanted to know if the Board has done anything about his complaint. The Administrator stated that this was a personnel matter and the report from the Detective Sergeant has now been received. Mayor Rey commented that he is waiting for the complete story from all parties concerned to be fair and he didn't feel it should be discussed in public. Mr. Kavicky, speaking for a neighbor, commented that there is no parking 2PM-5PM on either side of the north end of the Kendall Avenue extension and he would like "No Parking" on one side to be eliminated. (Refer to Administrator and Fire Warden) Mr. Jimenez brought many tenants to the meeting to plead with the Board not to amend the E.T.P.A. law. Peter Kringas again pleaded with the Board to help the landlords. He also asked that the police check the handicapped parking spaces to make sure it is available only for t! ie handicapped. Robert Friou asked that the new material he has gathered on the E.T.P.A. be made part of the official minutes. At the request of Trustee Hyland Village Counsel clarified to the public that the proposed local law will only affect buildings of ten or fewer units. 3 �m Volanda Mallery who lives in the Van Tassel Apartments stated that right now it is for ten or less but she felt eventually it will include more than ten. Mr. Jimenez wanted to know when the Board will take a vote on this issue? The Mayor commented when all the facts have been received. Don Caetano commented that if a landlord wants to keep his home in good condition, there are always expenses involved. There being no further comments, the Mayor closed the Public Comment Section. Administrator's Report William Regan reported that new telephone lines have been installed in the Village Hall offices which will improve the current telephone system and generate a savings. At a public auction held on May 15th five old village vehicles were sold totally $5950. Monday May 27th is a legal holiday, therefore there will be no garbage pickup on that day and no recycling on Wednesday. Officials interested in marching in the parade on Memorial Day will meet in front of Music Hall at 8:45 AM. Architectural Review Board will meet on May 22,1991 at 8 PM. The Administrator has discussed with the Highway Foreman the possibility of expanding the recycling program to include tin cans, therefore a barrel will be placed at the recycling center on River Street for these cans. There have been piles of large brush left at the curb in areas of Philipse Manor. Letters will be sent to those residents who left these large piles informing them that the brush must be tied up. William Regan stated that he was in receipt of a letter from Mrs. Mann of Fremont Road regarding repaving in that area which had not been completed. He commented that this was due to weather conditions and shortage of manpower at that time but repaving will be resuming in a week or two. Mrs. Mann suggested giving the officer who gives out littering summonses a more important duty. Mayor•s Report Mayor Rey reported the meeting that was held with our insurance brokers this week went very well; a savings of almost $10,000. was generated and the Board will meet to vote on this. We are also awaiting a response on additional savings on the insurance for the public officials. Resolutions-Attached 4 �Before moving forward on Resolution #072/91 regarding Halpern, Mr. Kingsberg, attorney with Pirro & Monsell, representing Halpern, stated that they were under the impression that an understanding had been reached at the last work session that all costs and expenses associated with the Halpern project that his client is paying would stop until the Village decides whether or not they are going forward with the project. Mayor Rey commented that although his point was well taken, he understood that there would be no costs or expenses incurred by the Village. He asked the Board's opinion on this matter. Trustee Treacy commented that the Board had decided to put the attorney's fees on hold until we figured out which direction we were going. But he felt we may need to use Teri Waivada's help. After a brief discussion, Village Counsel recommended leaving the resolution as is and as the Board sees the work developing, any waiver or provision in the agreement can be discussed as they go along. Mayor Rey commented that his sincere feeling is that we have a number of problems with this project that deal with density and parking. As an urban renewal plan, the Village has rights of condemnation. One of the areas of condemnation is the Duracell property and as such, with its area of contamination, our insurance policy would not cover that, should there be any claim at a future date. Trustee Treacy commented that the DEC will give a clean bill of health to the property before any transfer or purchase takes place. Attached Resolution #072/91 was then approved. Old Business Trustee Treacy stated that communications are lacking between the Planning, Zoning and Architectural Review Boards and suggested that minutes and agendas for all Boards be mailed to all members of the different boards. He suggested that the Board of Trustees meet with these other Boards. June 24th at 7PM was decided for the combined meeting. Trustee Timmings commented that there was a rumor circulating that he was in favor of a four-day work week for Village employees. He stated for the record, he never suggested this or as far as he knows did anyone else on the Board. New Business Trustee Treacy moved to call for a public hearing on the proposed amendments to the E.T.P.A. tp be held on June 4,1991, second by Trustee Nazemetz. Discussion ensued on some of the amendments and whether there should be another hearing. Trustee Hyland moved to take the proposal of Trustee Treacy and research it first, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried. After some suggestions by Village Counsel the motion calling for the public hearing on June 4th was carried 6-0. Mayor Rey stated the next work session will be held on May 28th. 5 �Public Comments Mr. Galella requested that handicapped signs be placed on the south side of Beekman Avenue. He also asked what the "transfer of $40,000. was for. The Administrator stated that this was just a general total transfer of monies. Pat Kringas commented that working with E.T.P.A. is very costly. Paul Brannigan commented that there seems to be some confusion about who is going to be affected by this proposed amendment to the E.T.P.A. A tenant who has been in any building since 1961 is still covered under the NYS Rent Control Board. Some of the proposals to this amendment are not going to work. Mr. Tierney stated that some landlords overcharge even with the E.T.P.A. in effect. Yolanda Mallery stated that the tenants in the Van Tassel have received a 15% rent increase every two years and the tenants group have worked very hard to lower the increase to 9%. There being no further comments, the Board adjourned to Executive Session to discuss personnel matters. Executive Session Discussion ensued on personnel matters in the police department. Trustee Hayes moved to transfer Sergeant Manuel Caixeiro out of the Detective Unit back into patrol to complete the rotation of manpower, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 4-2 with Trustees Hayes, Timmings, Alter and Nazemetz voting YES and Trustees Treacy and Hyland voting NO. There being no further business, Trustee Timmings moved to adjourn the meeting, second by Trustee Nazemetz and motion carried 6-0.

I read in the Gannett press that a full-time inspector would be an annual salary increase of $23,000 above the annual $27,000 currently earned by the part-time inspector, totalling $50,000 per year. I assume there would be no need for the two part-time code enforcement officers, eliminating a cost of $24,000 per year. You mention legal fees as an additional expense incurred by the village. It is my understanding that the incurrence of legal fees falls within the normal operation of all villages: legal cases go with the territory. Discounting the suggestion of legal fees, you've made it appear the Village would save $1,000 per year with a full-time inspector as opposed to a part time inspector. This seems too small a saving to make a change, especially "when we already have Mr. Margotta, who has the knowledge and experience of the building neesS'of this Village. Of course, if the Village intends or is obligated to pay fringe benefits to a full-time building inspector, such as medical costs and pension, I imagine the cost to the Village would be higher. The $1,000 savings could easily be a $4,000 or $5,000 loss. I would appreciate this letter being read at the next Village Board meeting and included in the minutes. Ronald Greene *r""~""~ cc.

F r i o u 114 Kelburne Avenue North Tarrytown, NY 10591 (914) 631-4361 May 21, 1991 Mayor Frank Rey and Board of Trustees Village of North Tarrytown I submit below further comments regarding proposal made by certain landlords for the Village to amend the State Emergency Tenant Protection Act so as to eliminate its protection for certain tenants residing in North Tarrytown. I make these remarks as a citizen and long time resident of the Village. I represent Village tenants but I am not here to lobby or speak for them; I speak for myself. I. PROPOSAL POWER SEEKS ACTION WHICH IS NOT WITHIN VILLAGE A. The Village cannot amend a State law. We don't need any citations for this proposition. The proposal states: "....The Board of Trustees...does hereby amend the New York State Emergency Tenant Protection Act of 1974...." The Village simply has no such power. Can a Village accomplish the proposed change in some other way? B. This has been tried. Cortlandt was one place where a "contract" was attempted to replace the State law. But the State Supreme Court held that a Town (a fortiori a Village) cannot enter a contract intended to supersede the ETPA. 1. Research is not complete. I find two decisions: a. In Christos v. Baltic Estates, Town of Cortlandt. etal, (Justice Ferraro, N . Y. State Supreme Court, filed and entered by the County Clerk, Westchester County, May 9, 1986), the Court held that a Town cannot enter a contract intended to supersede State law. It follows that a Village could not do what a Town cannot do. b. In a second lower Court case such a plan was enforced against a landlord after the landlord who signed up under the plan sought to claim tenants had no rights under the plan! This is the conclusion in Massagli, et al. v. l �Bastys and Town of Cortlandt, Supreme Court, Westchester County, 532 NYS2d 638 (Buell, J.). c. My view is that the appellate courts, if and w h e n asked may simply hold the Village action to be null and void and rule that the ETPA would remain in effect. There is a statutory provision permitting an opt-out in the requirement that there be an emergency found to exist in rental housing. d. It is worth observing that the Town was a party-litigant in each of the two law suits over that plan. It h a d the Town Attorney represent it. The Town was forced to come into Masagli as a necessary party by order of the Court. And the end is not in sight since an appeal to the Appellate Division and thence to the Court of Appeals would follow in later litigation. This could become a money maker for lawyers representing entities such as Towns as well as for lawyers representing landlords. II. PROPOSAL WOULD RESULT IN COST BURDEN TO VILLAGE To A. Lack of proof of claimed losses. The landlords seeiruclaim they are losing money (although no documents have been produced despite my Freedom of Information request to support the claim of losses). I should like to have an opportunity to review any documents which may have been filed with this Board. (Note: this is not a n intentional non-disclosure by the Village; my request was filed on or before May 13 and I was unable to check the production until May 20 when I found the documentation of the alleged loss was not included and could not immediately be located). 13. Passing the loss to the Village. Passing by that item for the moment it does appear that landlords claiming to lose money on investments with which they are not pleased now wish to saddle the Village with additional costs in unknown amounts. Normally an investor takes his own risks of loss on investments. If one purchased residential real estate in 1960 and sold it in 1980 the investment would have produced a large profit in this area. If the sale took place in, say, 1990, the profit might well have disappeared. If the purchase took place in 1980 and sold it in a'1990 a large loss might well have been incurred. Everyone, I take it, would agree that such losses are unfortunate side effects oi investing in low income real property. But most taxpayers might believe that the problem is one for the investor that need not be shared by taxpayers except through whatever income tax deductions may be available. However, the landlords making the proposal before this Board seem to believe that an exception should be made for them whereby we all share in their alleged misfortune. Their reasoning is not clear nor convincing to me. When we invest in U. S. Bonds and the price goes down no one bails us out. When we buy a car and 2 �the resale value drops no one bails us out. Why are these investors different? In order to provide them with some kind of windfall they wish to have the taxpayers of the Village undertake additional costs which would follow from the administration of a local rent control bureaucracy. What costs would these be? C. ADMINISTRATION COST The administration cost for the ETPA is now borne by the State or other entities. The Village pays nothing toward this cost. Under the proposal before this Board the cost for a local replacement system would be assumed by the Village. Costs of the proposal now before you are first to be considered. However in the future these and other landlords will no doubt ask for the same privileged treatment. Allow the camel's nose under the tent and h o w far will it go? If we begin with the smaller buildings h o w would the Village distinguish between nine families and ten families -- w h y not extend the privilege to ten, twelve, twenty, and so on? Thus you now may wish to consider what will be the ultimate cost of the extended bureaucracy when all landlords now under ETPA ask for inclusion in the Village plan. 1. Clerical Staff That cost includes in the first instance the clerical staff needed to operate the system. As to this cost the proposal is silent. No job description is provided. Costs are not estimated. Let us assume that the job, as presently envisaged, could be performed by one half of one clerk at an average pay and benefit level. Someone may argue: no, we need a full time clerk. Or: we need only one-fourth of a clerk. Which presently employed clerk should be asked to add this to his or her job? Should the Village employ a n e w part time clerk? Is that an efficient procedure? What about future requirements? 2. Management Time Someone has to manage a clerical staff. Who will do that? Mr. Regan, of course. How much time will he have to spend on this new job? TTiis new and controversial job? Please note that the plan would lead to the defining of many rather arcane problems for you to decide. 3 �I I 3. H Legal Counsel Time We can assume that the Village Attorney can always add another job, at the appropriate hourly rate — what rate -- say $150 an hour. This kind of plan is a fine litigation generator. The only problem is paying the lawyers. Low income tenants may be able to obtain pro bono assistance. How many thousand dollars would North Tarry town spend on such litigation? One test of this point would be to incorporate in the plan a provision that the Village will be indemnified by the landlords (they are the proponents and in some instances it is safe to assume landlords have more money than many tenants) for its legal fee costs for any litigation that involves the plan. This kind of provision would balance the risk which otherwise would be paid largely by other taxpayers. [What can you do about sunk costs such as the staffing time, etc., which would be lost if the plan were held to be illegal?] 4. Mayor and Board Time The concept calls for the development in the Village of an entirely new bureaucracy to replace the State system. Plainly the Mayor and Board would need to be involved. Since the proposal is barebones with no details provided there would be at the outset the need to provide some details. What would the written agreement look like? What would be its provisions? If a building has not been registered currently how is a rent to be determined? Look at paragraph 2 of the proposal: what would be the charter and by-laws of the "voluntary association"? Since this is a classic "fox watching the chickens" kind of plan, how does the Village keep things on the up and up? Do tenants have any rights to see documents, etc.? On what basis would the Board of Trustees approve of the "membership, organization and standards" of the "association"? What would happen if an owner having agreed to follow the rules nevertheless did not follow the rules? Would the Board of Trustees become a court to decide such questions? Who gets to audit the incomes of the persons residing in the units? Is that Mr. Regan's job? Does that feature raise some constitutional issue? These fine points would necessarily have to be decided by the 4 �Village Board probably with the help of professionals ~ lawyers and the Village Administrator. Since a lot of work would be needed to put this proposal in some kind of reasonable shape to be realistic — who is going to pay for that work? Disputes are not unlikely. The Village Board will have those to deal with. No doubt the most important issue would b e the determination of "no excessive above market rents." How is that to be accomplished? It would be easy to write book on this point alone. III. LACK OF DETAIL IN PROPOSAL I urge this Board, if it is to give any additional time to this one-sided proposal, to require the proponents to submit a draft with some details in it. What we now have is a mere sketch of an idea. The burden of providing the full model plainly is on the proponents. Perhaps the provision of such details would expose the faults in the plan and lead to its defeat. And in the same vein the proponents should provide proposed regulations stating in detail h o w the plan is to work, who will man it, what fees are to be paid by members, h o w new qualifiers can be brought in, what penalties could be imposed on recalcitrant parties, what forms would be used, what sort of accounting standards would apply to financial materials, what legal basis there is for demanding financial information from tenants, what justification there is for the 33 1/3% standard, h o w is veracity of data to be ascertained, and so on. IV. LUDICROUS IMBALANCE OF A LANDLORD ONLY COMMITTEE I doubt if any committee of non-elected persons can handle the proposed plan. But I am confident that landlords alone could not do it. Cortlandt had a committee of landlords and tenants. Mow how would that work? Is it conceivable that such a group could even hold an orderly meeting, could avoid constant conflict? V. CONCLUSION This is far from a fully developed memorandum. I have only had time, since my return from a week long trip yesterday, to outline the problems I see. Here are three major problems: 5 �The principal objection is the cost to the Village. Equally important is the issue of illegality. Finally viability is a real issue.

Present: Mayor Frank Rey Trustees: James J. Timmings, III Sean Treacy Morris Alter James J. Nazemetz Michael Hyland John T. Hayes, Jr. Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Robert J. Ponzini, Village Attorney Mayor Rey called the meeting to order with a pledge to the flag. Public Hearing Deputy Village Clerk read the attached public hearing notice with regard to the proposed amendment to the NYS E.T.P.A. of 1974. Nicholas Cicchetti addressed the Board stating that #4 of the notice should read "not to exceed" one-third rather than "in excess". Pat Kringas presented a petition to the Board on behalf of the small apartment owners which was signed by approximately 250 landlords begging the Board to amend the E.T.P.A. of 1974 to help these landlords. Jim Tierney urged the Board not to change E.T.P.A. He commented that perhaps there could be a referendum on the ballot for the people to decide whether or not it should be amended. Peter Kringas commented that there has been a decay in the Village since E.T.P.A. has been in effect, 15% increase is not much to ask. He did not object to the senior provision which could be made part of the amendment. Donald Caetano stated that there are many illegal apartments due to the fact that landlords are struggling. Please help these people by amending the E.T.P.A. Miguel Jimenez suggested that a representative from E.T.P.A. and the IRS be present at a meeting. If the Board amends this act, there will be many homeless people. He also accused Trustee Treacy of not caring for these people. Trustee Treacy called a point of order to respond to Mr. Jimenez's accusations. He stated that he has worked very hard on this issue. He also stated that he is the one who called for another public hearing after the original one had been closed, in an effort to help both tenants and landlords. 1 �. I Nicholas Cicchetti commented that the public hearing on these amendments was called for by Trustee Treacy to help protect both sides and is a judicial attempt to help resolve this long and much debated issue. He felt this was a step in the right direction and urged the Board to give serious consideration to Trustee Treacy's proposal. Paul Brannigan commented that the Board has devoted a great deal of time to this issue. He stated what he had commented previously that there are only twenty-nine buildings affected by this issue. Property values are affected by the image of our school districts and the market sets the rental values. Mr. Jimenez commented school taxes are going up all over and why do tenants have to pay because economy is suffering and landlords should tell the truth on how much rent they are collecting. Ann Pauletti stated that Mr. Jimenez has not backed up any of his facts and that she has lost alot of money in her building, she has spent over $100,000. fixing this building and cannot get any of it back. Don Caetano stated owning a home is an investment and there should be some profit. Ollie Snead of 100 College Avenue stated there are alot of people coming in and messing up North Tarrytown and we need protection in this building. Two tenants from 190 Valley Street stated that they work hard and pay their rent on time; one stating that she paid $900. a month. Sam Gittens of 100 College Avenue commented that there should be a representative from E.T.P.A. present to discuss with landlords and tenants, since the problems are not only with the Board but with E.T.P.A. Mayor Rey stated that we called the E.T.P.A. but that their two representatives could not attend at this time. Peter Kringas commented that the problem here is E.T.P.A. It takes years for them to resolve problems; they protect the tenant, not the landlord. The Board has the power to eliminate E.T.P.A. Mrs. Pauletti commented that it would be impossible to sell any one of these buildings because no bank will finance them. Mr. Tierney commented that with the financial crunch, if E.T.P.A were useless, they would eliminate it themselves; there must be a reason for E.T.P.A. Mayor Rey entertained a motion to close the public hearing, Trustee Hyland so moved, second by Trustee Timmings and carried. Discussion ensued among the Trustees and Village Counsel. 2 �a Trustee Hyland asked for the opinion of Village whether or not these amendments were legal. Counsel on Village Counsel stated in his written opinion to the Board which was based on case laws, the Village does not have the power to add conditions to the resolution. Under E.T.P.A. Village has the right only to determine a class of housing accommodations. Trustee Treacy commented that the specific authority to regulate rents has been granted to Villages in Westchester County under E.T.P.A. The Board of Trustees is the Rent Commission and can institute guidelines in an administrative code which would constitute a particular class. The idea is to preserve property and the well being of the community. We are creating legislation and not contracts. Trustee Timmings wanted to know what the definition of an emergency was in this case and was the five percent vacancy figure an arbitrary figure? Robert Ponzini stated that there is nothing arbitrary that the Board does. It is a fact finding that the Board has to do and approximately eight or nine years ago, the Board felt that there was a rental emergency. The review that the Board did for this issue was to decide what the options were; continue the status quo, appeal the E.T.P.A. or adjust the number of units within a class. Trustee Treacy stated that in the final section of the E.T.P.A. regulations, it reads that a local governing body of a Village can declare an emergency on the basis of the supply of housing accommodations, the condition of such accommodations and the need for continued regulation and control of residential rates. Mayor Rey stated that E.T.P.A. doesn't work and the bureaucracy is coming down to the Village level. He was not in favor of the amendments based on Counsel's advice. He has written to E.T.P.A. on behalf of Frank O'Brien and suggested that other landlords can come forward to the Board if they are experiencing problems. Trustee Treacy questioned the legality of the Village getting involved in individual cases. We should improve the community as a whole. Trustee Hyland commented that Mr. Friou, an attorney also stated that the amendments are not legal; either the Board eliminates E.T.P.A. or leaves it alone. Trustee Treacy continued on the negative consequences of E.T.P.A. No on will come into North Tarry town; we should improve the community as a whole. Robert Ponzini, our attorney, again stated that he can only give his opinion; options open to us now are to continue E.T.P.A. as it is now or approve the first public hearing and raise the number of units in a class. 3 �His opinion on the five amendments was as stated previously, he did not feel this was appropriate. Mayor Rey stated that some landlords are being hurt by E.T.P.A. while others are not doing the right thing by keeping their buildings in good condition as we have many cases in court right now. After more discussion, Trustee Treacy moved to adopt the original proposal to amend the E.T.P.A. of 1974, but with the amendments set forth at tonight's public hearing, second by Trustee Alter. After brief discussion, motion was defeated 4-3 on a roll call vote: Trustees Timmings, Hyland, Hayes and Mayor Rey voting NO and Trustees Treacy, Alter and Nazemetz voting YES. A five minute recess took place. After returning from recess, more discussion ensued on the original public hearing. After the discussion, the original motion on the floor was then passed. (Resolution #:06/78/91 is attached). Approval of Minutes Trustee Hyland moved to approve the minutes of May 21, 1991 Board meeting, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 6-0 with one addition. Under Mayor Key's report he stated he was very concerned over the contamination at the Duracell site. Approval of Warrants Trustee Hyland moved to approve the warrants and authorize the Treasurer to pay the bills, second by Trustee Treacy and motion carried 6-0. Total of General Fund is $82,810.99 and the Water Department Fund is $3,527.60. Communications, Petitions & Requests The Deputy Clerk read communication from Sharon Lyster of 166 Farrington Avenue requesting sidewalk repairs in front of her home. Refer to Public Works Department and name added to list. Deputy Clerk was in receipt of correspondence from Richard Ayers of 84 Beekman Avenue and Miguel Jimenez of 196 Cortlandt Street informing the Village of their intent to renew their liquor licenses in accordance with the requirements of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law.

Bill Regan stated that he does not know but he read some figures in the newspaper for Dobbs Ferry and Hastings which represent about 4 0% of what they received last year. Mr. Cicchetti stated that if this money is forthcoming, he would hope the Board would set this aside for tax reduction for next year. Mayor's Report The Mayor reported that the Beekman Avenue project has received many favorable comments. There seems to be a littering problem that must be addressed and we are considering hiring someone on a part time basis to patrol the area on the weekend.

Communications,Petitions & Requests The Deputy Clerk was in receipt of two letters from Larry Rodrigues notifying the Village that he is applying for an On-Premise Liquor License for Seabreeze, Inc. at 180 Valley Street and an Off-Premise Liquor License for Valley Wines & Liquor,Inc. (Referred to Police Chief) The Deputy Clerk received a letter from Mrs. Cartenuto of 516 Bellwood Avenue requesting that a dead tree in front of her home be inspected.(Referred to Highway Foreman and Tree Commissioner). Deputy Clerk read a letter from the Division of Housing and Community Renewal regarding the resolution that the Board passed decontrolling buildings under ten units. Numerous inquiries have been received as to whether or not tenants in occupancy retain their ETPA protection until they vacate and they want to Know what the board's intentions were. A brief discussion ensued. The Village Attorney stated that the resolution the Board passed only eliminates the class, and it is up to the tenants to be protected under their leases. The Mayor reaffirmed that this does not affect any rent controlled apartments. The Administrator will respond to this letter. 1 �Public Comments Miguel Jimenez addressed the Board regarding the Rock of Salvation's request to hold outdoor religious services at Friendship Park. The Mayor stated that the Board did grant permission for one day. Nicholas Cicchetti commented that the State Legislature has passed the 1% increase in the County sales tax. Our share of revenue gained by this increase should help the Village greatly by alleviating the tax burden on our residents. He suggested a plan be enacted so that we would be assured that the commitment the Village made in getting this increase passed is carried through. Also, a select Citizen Committee should be appointed to work out a long term program with the Board. Several residents addressed the Board with their concerns regarding the Halpern project. Mario Belanich asked if it were true that Halpern would be exempt from taxes for seven years and if the Village would be held responsible for any contamination found later on. Trustees Timmings and Treacy stated that there will be no tax abatements. Trustee Treacy stated that Halpern would not go forward until the DEC gives the area a clean bill of health. The Mayor stated that there is always a possibility that the Village could be named in a suit if in fact this does occur at a later date. Mr. & Mrs. Paul McClintock concerns were parking, flow of traffic, congestion and access of fire trucks if Andrews Lane and Elm Street were made dead end streets. Trustees Timmings and Nazemetz commented that the plans provide for parking whereby most spaces will be contained within the development. Mrs. Belanich asked about the environmental impact study and commented that the litter problem should be addressed before we go ahead and build more apartments. Trustee Treacy commented state law mandates an environmental study be done and experts will be hired to do the study. Trustee Timmings stated the contract is subject to the approval of this study and to the attorney's approval. Mayor Rey commented the Board met again with Halpern to reaffirm our position and ask questions. Dr. Sweet stated that the Village should keep in mind that under the Urban Renewal Law, once we agree to Phase II, the Village has a commitment to reimburse the contractor for some of the expenses. He commented when the PILOT agreement was signed in 1985, no one had realized what the impact would be on the school district by not stipulating where the PILOT money was being paid and how it would be handled by the school district. Because of this, the Village has been denied approximately 60% of these taxes. Last year a petition was circulated regarding the treatment of the GM PILOT and requesting that a deduction be made in the amount of GM PILOT from the amount of real property taxes to be raised from the Mt.Pleasant portion of the school district. 2 �I Mayor Rey commended Dr. sweet for all his time and effort. Mayor's Report Mayor Rey reported that the anticipated revenue the Village will receive as a result of the increase in the County sales tax should be approximately $550,260. This revenue will be used to stabilize our taxes. Mayor Rey received a copy of a letter from Sandy Galef addressed to the School Board regarding the petition she received last year with regards to the General Motors PILOT whereby the Mt. Pleasant portion of the school district is not being given credit for the General Motors PILOT. The Mayor stated that we should send a letter similar to this one to the Board of Education stating that the Village of North Tarrytown requests to join in pursuing this also. Trustee Hyland moved that the letter be sent, seconded by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 6-0. Administrator's Report The Administrator reported that the Village has received a grant from the State Education Department for $9850. which will be used to conduct an inventory of all the records in the Village. We will be looking for a part-time inventory clerk to do this. Correspondence has been received from the State Department of Transportation regarding the proposed project to widen the existing highway along Bedford Road; copies have been sent to the property owners in that area. A brief discussion ensued regarding the removal of trees along that road. The Administrator will contact DOT and ask them to send a representative to discuss our concerns about the project. William Regan was in receipt of correspondence from Michael Blau, Tarrytown•s Administrator asking if we were interested in joining with them in purchasing a noise-level meter at a cost of $981 each. Our Village Attorney commented that these were not admissible in Court. A brief discussion ensued and the Trustees felt that based on Attorney's opinion, we should not buy one. The Administrator stated that there will be two items for Executive Session; one regarding discussion on the early employee retirement incentive program and labor relations with the Teamsters Local. Resolutions-Attached Old Business Trustee Hyland suggested that an amnesty program regarding payment of fines be adopted. Attached resolution #07/93/91 was passed unanimously. Trustee Timmings felt that after the discussion with the Halpern representatives tonight, the Board should move forward on a decision. Attached resolution #07/94/91 was passed unanimously. The Village Attorney commented that for the next five months the Board will be looking at the Halpern agreement to see if all questions can be resolved and satisfied. 3 �Mayor Rey stated that the Municipal Officials Conference will be held in Ithaca on July 23 if any of the Trustees can attend. New Business The Zoning Board will meet on July 17th at 8:00 PM and the Planning Board will meet July 18th at 8:00 PM. Trustee Treacy commented that in light of the large tax increase, a few merchants have complained to him about the Village's recent request for donations towards the purchase of recycling boxes. He suggested that we ask Gannett newspaper to help pay for these boxes since they already supply numerous municipalities and they pay a large share of the cost. A brief discussion ensued. Trustee Hyland commented that we should see if these boxes are feasible and discuss it at the next work session. Mayor Rey commented that the cable franchise license is up for renewal and would like to discuss this at the work session. The next work session will be held'on August 6, 1991 and the next regular board meeting will be held on August 20th. Public Comments Mr. Kavicky asked about the possibility of paying cable bills at the bank. Trustee Treacy commented that he would be bring this up during negotiations. Dr. Richard Sweet, Chairman of the Conservation Advisory Council, requested a copy of the survey from DOT regarding widening of Route 4 48 and Bedford Road to present to the Council. Dr. Sweet again asked for the Board's support in helping to get N. Tarrytown their share of GM PILOT and commented that we are at a disadvantage due to the fact that the current Board of Education is comprised of only one member from N. Tarrytown and that Tarrytown's population is greater than ours. Executive Session Trustee Timmings moved to adjourn to Executive Session, second by Trustee Alter and motion carried. The Administrator informed the Mayor and Board that he received a letter from Local 4 56 regarding Phelps Memorial sanitation pick up. Discussion ensued but no formal action was taken. Discussion ensued on the early retirement incentive program for eligible Village employees. Trustee Timmings moved to reconvene, seconded by Trustee Nazemetz and motion carried 6-0. Trustee Hyland moved to call for a public hearing on August 6th at 8:00 PM regarding the early retirement incentive program, seconded by Trustee Alter and motion carried 6-0. There being no further business, Trustee Hyland moved to adjourn the meeting, second by Trustee Treacy and motion carried.

Mayor Rey was in receipt of correspondence from the Salvation Army announcing a summer/winter clothing sale on July 6th at 10 AM at their Wildey Street location, also regarding street services on Sunday afternoon on Beekman Avenue. This will be discussed with Counsel. The Mayor has received responses from two merchants to date who will be contributing to our new recycling program. Once this program is in full swing, we will report to the residents. Public Comments Joanne Addotta Chairman of the Old Dutch Church Committee on Preservation Activity, addressed the Board asking if a decision had been made with regard to their building permit. The Mayor stated that on Counsel's advice, to do this would be setting a precedent which would be outside of the legislation. Robert Ponzini, Village Attorney, stated that waiving the fee for a building permit would be in violation of the New York State Constitution and the Village has no authority to do this. 2 �Vito Addotta, Treasurer of this Committee, commented that their Church brings in many tourists to the area and is of great economic value to the Village. In 1985 the Old Dutch Church was designated a Historic Landmark and the Village of North Tarrytown declared that from that day forward, for the next several years, the Village would join the Old Dutch Church in restoring our historic sites and monuments. Dr. Richard Sweet commented that the Sleepy Hollow Society was formed to enhance the historic sites and felt that special dispensation should be given to the Old Dutch Church or perhaps the fee could be waived. Robert Ponzini stated that the Village cannot waive the fee but he suggested the Village write a letter to the Department of Audit and Control for a second opinion on the possibility of waiving the fee. Trustee Nazemetz asked if there was any historical procedure dealing with historical structures as far as the federal government is concerned. Our Attorney commented that there is historic landmark registration, but right now there is no local law in place that permits us to waive the fee. Tom Pellechi presented certificates to Auxiliary Police who are qualified to carry handguns. Joseph DeFelice thanked the Board for adopting the new local law entitled "Constables". Jim Tierney asked when the Board will discuss the possibility of exempting senior citizens from having to pay for improvements that landlords make to their buildings. The Mayor commented that this will most likely be discussed in September. There being no further comments, the Public Comment section was closed. M a y o r s Report The Mayor reported that we are working very hard with the merchants to help keep the Avenue free from littering. Also, a young man has been hired to pick up litter on the weekends. Administrator's Report William Regan reported that on Monday, July 1st the Mayor, Chief of Police, Sgt. Ferguson and himself attended a ceremony to install the first of the six D.A.R.E. signs which will be installed throughout the Village. He and Henry Atterbury along with Chris Rezza of Greene County have been meeting with regard to the Street Festival.

Regan, Village Administrator Robert J. Ponzini, Village Attorney Mayor Rey called the meeting to order with a pledge to the flag. He asked that everyone remain standing for a moment of silence for Trustee Timmings grandmother, Irene Deely and for Mrs. Valcarce who passed away recently. Public Hearing-None Approval of Minutes Trustee Hyland moved to approve the minutes of July 2, 1991 as written, seconded by Trustee Alter and motion carried 5-0 with Trustee Treacy abstaining.

The amount of the General Fund was $146,070.04 plus an additional $3040. for medicare reimbursement for retired Village employees. The Water Department fund amount was $7115.45. Communications,Petitions & Requests The Deputy Clerk was in receipt of two letters from Larry Rodrigues notifying the Village that he is applying for an On-Premise Liquor License for Seabreeze, Inc. at 180 Valley Street and an Off-Premise Liquor License for Valley Wines & Liquor,Inc. (Referred to Police Chief) The Deputy Clerk received a letter from Mrs. Cartenuto of 516 Bellwood Avenue requesting that a dead tree in front of her home be inspected.(Referred to Highway Foreman and Tree Commissioner). Deputy Clerk read a letter from the Division of Housing and Community Renewal regarding the resolution that the Board passed decontrolling buildings under ten units. Numerous inquiries have been received as to whether or not tenants in occupancy retain their ETPA protection until they vacate and they want to Know what the board's intentions were. A brief discussion ensued. The Village Attorney stated that the resolution the Board passed only eliminates the class, and it is up to the tenants to be protected under their leases. The Mayor reaffirmed that this does not affect any rent controlled apartments. The Administrator will respond to this letter. 1 �Public Comments Miguel Jimenez addressed the Board regarding the Rock of Salvation's request to hold outdoor religious services at Friendship Park. The Mayor stated that the Board did grant permission for one day. Nicholas Cicchetti commented that the State Legislature has passed the 1% increase in the County sales tax. Our share of revenue gained by this increase should help the Village greatly by alleviating the tax burden on our residents. He suggested a plan be enacted so that we would be assured that the commitment the Village made in getting this increase passed is carried through. Also, a select Citizen Committee should be appointed to work out a long term program with the Board. Several residents addressed the Board with their concerns regarding the Halpern project. Mario Belanich asked if it were true that Halpern would be exempt from taxes for seven years and if the Village would be held responsible for any contamination found later on. Trustees Timmings and Treacy stated that there will be no tax abatements. Trustee Treacy stated that Halpern would not go forward until the DEC gives the area a clean bill of health. The Mayor stated that there is always a possibility that the Village could be named in a suit if in fact this does occur at a later date. Mr. & Mrs. Paul McClintock concerns were parking, flow of traffic, congestion and access of fire trucks if Andrews Lane and Elm Street were made dead end streets. Trustees Timmings and Nazemetz commented that the plans provide for parking whereby most spaces will be contained within the development. Mrs. Belanich asked about the environmental impact study and commented that the litter problem should be addressed before we go ahead and build more apartments. Trustee Treacy commented state law mandates an environmental study be done and experts will be hired to do the study. Trustee Timmings stated the contract is subject to the approval of this study and to the attorney's approval. Mayor Rey commented the Board met again with Halpern to reaffirm our position and ask questions. Dr. Sweet stated that the Village should keep in mind that under the Urban Renewal Law, once we agree to Phase II, the Village has a commitment to reimburse the contractor for some of the expenses. He commented when the PILOT agreement was signed in 1985, no one had realized what the impact would be on the school district by not stipulating where the PILOT money was being paid and how it would be handled by the school district. Because of this, the Village has been denied approximately 60% of these taxes. Last year a petition was circulated regarding the treatment of the GM PILOT and requesting that a deduction be made in the amount of GM PILOT from the amount of real property taxes to be raised from the Mt.Pleasant portion of the school district. 2 �I Mayor Rey commended Dr. sweet for all his time and effort. Mayor's Report Mayor Rey reported that the anticipated revenue the Village will receive as a result of the increase in the County sales tax should be approximately $550,260. This revenue will be used to stabilize our taxes. Mayor Rey received a copy of a letter from Sandy Galef addressed to the School Board regarding the petition she received last year with regards to the General Motors PILOT whereby the Mt. Pleasant portion of the school district is not being given credit for the General Motors PILOT. The Mayor stated that we should send a letter similar to this one to the Board of Education stating that the Village of North Tarrytown requests to join in pursuing this also. Trustee Hyland moved that the letter be sent, seconded by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 6-0. Administrator's Report The Administrator reported that the Village has received a grant from the State Education Department for $9850. which will be used to conduct an inventory of all the records in the Village. We will be looking for a part-time inventory clerk to do this. Correspondence has been received from the State Department of Transportation regarding the proposed project to widen the existing highway along Bedford Road; copies have been sent to the property owners in that area. A brief discussion ensued regarding the removal of trees along that road. The Administrator will contact DOT and ask them to send a representative to discuss our concerns about the project. William Regan was in receipt of correspondence from Michael Blau, Tarrytown•s Administrator asking if we were interested in joining with them in purchasing a noise-level meter at a cost of $981 each. Our Village Attorney commented that these were not admissible in Court. A brief discussion ensued and the Trustees felt that based on Attorney's opinion, we should not buy one. The Administrator stated that there will be two items for Executive Session; one regarding discussion on the early employee retirement incentive program and labor relations with the Teamsters Local. Resolutions-Attached Old Business Trustee Hyland suggested that an amnesty program regarding payment of fines be adopted. Attached resolution #07/93/91 was passed unanimously. Trustee Timmings felt that after the discussion with the Halpern representatives tonight, the Board should move forward on a decision. Attached resolution #07/94/91 was passed unanimously. The Village Attorney commented that for the next five months the Board will be looking at the Halpern agreement to see if all questions can be resolved and satisfied. 3 �Mayor Rey stated that the Municipal Officials Conference will be held in Ithaca on July 23 if any of the Trustees can attend. New Business The Zoning Board will meet on July 17th at 8:00 PM and the Planning Board will meet July 18th at 8:00 PM. Trustee Treacy commented that in light of the large tax increase, a few merchants have complained to him about the Village's recent request for donations towards the purchase of recycling boxes. He suggested that we ask Gannett newspaper to help pay for these boxes since they already supply numerous municipalities and they pay a large share of the cost. A brief discussion ensued. Trustee Hyland commented that we should see if these boxes are feasible and discuss it at the next work session. Mayor Rey commented that the cable franchise license is up for renewal and would like to discuss this at the work session.

Present: Mayor Frank Rey Sean Treacy Michael Hyland James Nazemetz John T. Hayes, Jr. Trustees Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Robert W. Spencer, Village Attorney Sanjay Shah, Deputy Treasurer Absent: Morris Alter James J. Timmings, III Trustees Public Hearing William Regan, Village Administrator, read the attached proposed local law. There were no comments from the public, therefore, Trustee Treacy moved to close the public hearing, seconded by Trustee Nazemetz and motion carried. William Regan commented that there are six employees eligible for this early retirement program and asked that the Trustees review the chart that was prepared by San jay Shah showing the estimated cost to the Village per year if this law were adopted. It is too soon to know exactly what the cost would be because it would depend on the number of eligible employees participating in the plan. In order to be cost effective, one of the positions must be eliminated once the person retires. Mayor Rey questioned the payout on accumulated sick time. Sanjay Shah stated that accumulated sick time is paid out whenever they decide to retire and that it is a contractual obligation. Trustee Treacy commented that this plan is just what the Village needs to cut costs especially if a higher paid employee retires and the position is eliminated. Sanjay Shah commented that this program will pay for itself in approximately two years. Trustee Hyland stated that the Village could not afford to reduce the work force at this time. He wanted more time to discuss this before a decision was made. The Administrator stated that a decision must be made by August 16, 1991. 1 �V After more discussion, Trustee Hyland moved to adjourn the Public Hearing, second by Trustee Treacy and carried. Trustee Nazemetz moved to call for a Special Meeting on Tuesday, August 13, 1991 at 7;00 PM for further discussion on this special legislation. Respectfully submitted, William T.

Present: Mayor Frank Rey Sean Treacy Michael Hyland James Nazemetz John T. Hayes, Jr. Trustees Also Present: William T. Regan, Village Administrator Sanjay Shah, Deputy Treasurer Absent: Morris Alter James J. Timmings, III Trustees After reading the public hearing notice which was held on August 6, William Regan commented that this meeting was a continuation of the discussion by the Board after the hearing was closed. Mayor Rey commented that since last week a third eligible employee has expressed interest in the program. Sanjay Shah has put together cost figures and calculations for the Board to review. Discussion ensued. Trustee Hy-land commented that since the third person has expressed interest, two positions can be filled and only one position should be eliminated. If needed, part-timers can be hired. Trustee Nazemetz questioned how the figures on the chart will effect the Village. The Administrator stated that the yearly estimated retirement cost of $15,186.71 will not affect the Village until November 1992 which is in the next fiscal year. This is the first of five installments. The elimination of the one position will cover most of it. The question of payout of accumulated sick time arose again. The Administrator stated that this must be paid to them whenever they retire and the longer they stay, the more they will accumulate. Trustee Treacy commented that since two men were previously doing the same work that three men are doing now, he felt that eliminating one position would not have a great effect on the work load. Sanjay Shah stated that we must reassure the State that there will be no significant cuts in services if we eliminate a position. This is the first time this plan has been offered to Villages and Towns and would be a good time to eliminate one position through attrition without any problem with the Union. 1 �1 ^ \ More discussion ensued on the payout of accumulated sick time as to whether it should continue to be part of the retirement package. Trustee Treacy commented that it should be discussed during negotiations with the unions. Trustee Treacy moved to adopt a Local Law electing a retirement incentive program as authorized by Chapter 178, Laws of 1991, for the eligible employees of the Village of North Tarrytown,seconded by Trustee Hyland and motion carried unanimously. There being no further business, Trustee Nazemetz moved to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Trustee Hyland and motion carried. Respectfully submitted, William T.

There are a few others who also helped and they will receive certificates at the next meeting. Public Hearings William Regan read the attached public hearing notice regarding increasing fines for violation of Chapter 24-3 entitled Garbage. Don Caetano, resident, of Lawrence Avenue, commented that there was no need to increase the penalties but that our Sanitation men should be more careful when picking up garbage and not drop it on our streets. After a brief discussion among the T r u s t e e s , Trustee Hyland moved to close the public hearing, second by Trustee A l t e r and c a r r i e d . The Administrator read t h e a t t a c h e d p u b l i c h e a r i n g n o t i c e r e g a r d i n g amendments t o V i l l a g e Code e n t i t l e d " P r o p e r t y Maintenance".

The Administrator read t h e a t t a c h e d p u b l i c h e a r i n g regarding addition to the Zoning code, Chapter 62. notice George Hritz of t h e Sleepy Hollow Taxpayers A s s o c i a t i o n s t a t e d t h a t there i s no purpose in reducing the setback requirements and wanted to know why i t i s being proposed a t t h i s time. Trustee Alter agreed with Mr. Hritz and was a g a i n s t t h i s proposal by Frederick P. Clark Associates and wanted t h e Board t o d i s c u s s t h i s further with them. 1 �Timothy Coon of Bellwood Avenue also wanted to know why the Board would be considering this proposed amendment, since Frederick P. Clark Associates recommendations do not address the problems that will be created by this proposal. The consensus in Westchester County is to give more open spaces and not less. Mayor Rey commented that this hearing came about recommendation of the Chairman of the Zoning Board. on the Village Attorney stated the purpose of this hearing is to get comments from the public. Haig Bohigan, President of the PMIA, suggested the Board table this consideration until the PMIA has discussed the reasons for the proposed setbacks and not for just the one case involved. Trustee Alter moved to table this public hearing; there was no second. Based on the advice of Village Counsel, Trustee Alter moved to adjourn the public hearing, second by Trustee Hyland and motion carried 4-0. William Regan read the attached public hearing notice regarding the proposed amendments to the Wetlands/Watercourse Ordinance. Nicholas Cicchetti, former trustee, commented that numbers 1-5 have already been addressed at two previous public hearings and did not know why we were holding another public hearing tonight. The only amendment that needs to be addressed is number 6 which will be with regard to Sleepy Hollow Cemetery's request to expand their gravesite. George Hritz of Fremont Road stated that with regard to the Cemetery's request, he felt that the removal of a major water way would have a terrible effect on Fremont pond. Donald Stever, member of the CAC, stated that at two previous hearings all of the proposed amendments were already addressed. He urged the Board to make a decision. The purpose of this ordinance is to give the Village authority to control what happens to smaller wetlands. The first five amendments are only technical amendments and there is no objection to these changes. The Planning Board should decide if a project meets certain conditions. Gerard Weiss, representing Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, reiterated what he stated in previous hearings that Sleepy Hollow Cemetery has not asked for exemptions, all they ask is for the Planning Board to exercise their discretion and for this Board to make a decision. The Cemetery would not do anything to jeopardize the look of the cemetery. Dr. Richard Sweet, Chairman of the CAC commented that during all the previous discussions the CAC never stated that size didn't matter. The Citizen's Campaign for Environmental Wetlands stated that there should be no minimum size. Amendments 1-5 are technical amendments but not number 6. 2 �Mr. Kennell, President of the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery Association commented that it is not true that stopping the flow of the watercourse will affect Fremont Pond. All the Cemetery wants to do is replace the pipe from the old Fremont fountain. There being no further comments, Trustee Hyland moved to close the public hearing, second by Trustee Nazemetz and motion carried. Brief discussion ensued among the Trustees. Trustee Alter made a motion to remove number 6 from the list of amendments. There was no second.

He also suggested removing a parking space on Teresa Street to help in the-garbage collection. He questioned an unregistered trailer attached to a village truck; the Mayor stated he will check into the matter. Mario Belanich stated that since General Motors will be working on the Saturday of the Street Festival, he suggested that the Village advise GM of the route the trailers should take when travelling in and out of the village. Mr. Belanich stated that he was against the amnesty program. Administrators Report William Regan reported that the Street Festival is moving along nicely; the bicycle race will be held on October 6th; the brush chipper is working very well, sidewalk repairs have started, the storm drains in Sleepy Hollow Manor have been repaired and the silt in the eastern end of Fremont Pond can now be dredged, Columbia Hose's new fire pumper is being delivered tomorrow and after being thoroughly checked,it should be put into service by early September.

Communications/ Petitions & Requests Mayor Rey read a letter from Steven Salman thanking the Mayor for his appointment to the Planning Board. He also made comments regarding the Halpern proposal. ( Part of official minutes) The Deputy Clerk was in receipt of a letter from Sophia's Bar & Restaurant at 49 Chestnut Street informing the Village of their intent to renew their liquor license. (Referred to Police Chief) Deputy Clerk read correspondence from R.C. Sweet, Chairman of the Conservation Advisory Council stating that due to the increasing demands on the viability and quality of our environment, he hoped that the Board would implement the Village Tree Commission as soon as possible. He will provide the Board with the names of two members of the CAC to be designated to the Commission. Public Comments Nick Cicchetti commented that in connection with Dr. Sweet's letter, the CAC is very concerned about the number of' sycamore trees that will be removed with the highway work and the widening 1 �i of Rte. 448. The Sleepy Hollow Manor's Taxpayer's Association has expressed concern and has recommended that the Board move forward in getting the Tree Commission back in motion and to see exactly what their powers are. The Association has asked if there will be any public hearings on this proposed widening. Mr. Cicchetti also hoped this Board will actively pursue this issue before it gets out of hand. The Mayor commented that recently a representative came from the State to answer questions and this Board hopes to be cooperating with the Town of Mt. Pleasant on the total project. Mr. Cicchetti asked what the outcome was of the meetings that were held sometime ago with the Village, the Counsel and representatives of the school Board regarding a tax revenue for the Village as a result of the reassessment of the GM property. He also wanted to know if any of this expected money was listed as revenue when the budget was prepared. Mayor Rey commented that the attorneys from the Village and GM are continuing with discussions, but nothing has been finalized as far as a figure and that $3 0,000. was projected for this. There being no further comments, Trustee Hyland moved to closed the public comment section, second by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 5-0. Mayor's Report Mayor Rey commented that the litter situation is not improving as quickly as he would like and asked that everyone in the Village try and do their share in keeping our Village clean. Mayor Rey stated that he has appointed Steven Salman to the Planning Board to fill an unexpired term and that Mr. Salman will be present at the September meeting. The Mayor was in receipt of a letter from Annagret Rice resigning from the Architectural Review Board effective October 1, 1991. Resignation was accepted with regrets and letter will be sent. Administrator's Report William Regan reported work on the Street Festival is continuing, and anyone interested in a vendor's space can contact the Recreation Department. We are looking for a part-time clerk to help with our records management inventory for which we received a grant from the state. The tree that fell in Barnhart Park was inspected by the Tree Commissioner and will be removed this week and the other trees in the park will be pruned. Resolutions-None 2 �I f¥? Old Business Mayor Rey stated that littering is still a problem and that he would like an effort made on the part of the merchants to keep the sidewalks in front of their stores clean of debris. Trustee Hyland stated the Task Force has suggested that the merchants clean in front of their stores and in the gutter twice a day. New Business The next regular board meeting will be held on September 24th. Public Comments Walter Ceconi commented the part-timer who has been sweeping the streets should be taught how to clean. Trustee Hyland stated that we have since hired a new part-timer. Executive Session Trustee Hyland moved to adjourn to executive session to discuss litigation, personnel and labor negotiations, seconded by Trustee Timmings and motion carried 5-0. Discussion ensued on litigation but no formal action was taken. Discussion ensued on teamsters negotiations. Discussion ensued on personnel matters in the police department but no formal action was taken. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

Y . 105 91 August Dear Mayor 18, 1991 Rey, I would like to thank you for nominating me to the Planni ng Board. As per our d i s c u s s i o n in early J u l y , I was a m e m b e r of the Planning Board about 10 y e a r s a g o , when the Rockefel1er State Park was a p p r o v e d . I take great pride in having been part of that decision m a k i n g p r o c e s s . Our Village now faces another important crossroad, that of olanning sections of the Beekman Avenue area for d e v e l o p m e n t . The question that we should be asking ourselves i s : "Do we want to direct our destiny or do we wish to relegate our rights to o t h e r s ? " Before my a p p o i n t m e n t b e c o m e s o f f i c i a l , I would like the o p p o r t u n i t y to present my o p i n i o n in regard to "..he M a 1 p e r n Plan. U n f o r t u n a t e l y a prior commitment precludes IIK- from being at this Board Meeting and I have had to resort to this letter intsead of being here in p e r s o n . w >? are a quaint Hudson Valley Village of about 8„ 000 in n u n b e r . What do we want to be as a result of any c o n s t r u c t i o n or development? We can i n c r e a s e our numbers somewhat, but must remember that our b o r d e r s will not be e n l a r g i n g . We can go along with a proposal which will not increase our b o u n d a r i e s , but will increase our p o p u l a t i o n from 1640%+, '.<••?. can increase somewhat numerically, imnrove our present aging housing stock and plan to- do some new construction on empty property. However, new construction means making d e c i s i o n s as to density,type of construction, staging of c o n s t r u c t i o n , etc. Since this is t!ie first major area to open up for construction in many years it is proper to give our r e s i d e n t s full rein in the planning process. I and many others d n not feel c o m f o r t a b l e in n o t b e i n ,c; able to provide "i i r.'.- ct ion for a project of this n a t u r e , "athsr than abrogate fir responsibility to the residents of this Village, we sh ou 1 d be taking the bull by the hotns and decide what we feel is best for the V i l l a g e .

Another thing about the Halpern Plan that thoroughly confuses me Is that many of the same people who criticized the signing of a 10 year a g r e e m e n t with G . M . now think nothing of giving what amounts to a lifetime carte blanche contract for construction to H a l p e r n . The G , M . agreement wa J tier! to specific payments over a definite period of time. Halpern provides nothing but a p r o m i s e better things to come, forever. I really feel that it is time to cut the cord with Halpern and to live up to the p r o m i s e s that: were made in the last e l e c t i o n . In a d d i t i o n , let the Village become r e s p o n s i b l e for p l a n n i n g , try to interest others in construction on these R i t e s , and consider d e v e l o p i n g a w o r k i n g relationship with Dura cell to utilize their property in a manner befitting a n u a i. n t Hudson Valley Village o f a Imut 8,000.

Trustee Treacy moved to accept his letter with regrets and thanked him for all his hard work and dedication to the Village, second by Trustee Nazemetz and motion carried 6-0. Trustee Treacy commented that Mr. Shah should be given a Certificate of Service. Public Comments Dr. Richard Sweet stated that the Conservation Advisory Council met with a representative of DOT on Route 448 regarding the trees that will be removed and/or replaced when the proposed widening takes place. There will be a meeting Wednesday evening with the CAC and a representative of the Department of State. Don Caetano stated that there are illegal aliens living at 25 Andrews Lane. The Mayor stated that the immigration office should be called on this matter and Trustee Hyland stated that the Code Enforcement Officers have already checked this building in July and the owner is currently in court. Armando Galella wanted to know why home owners who obtain certificates of occupancy to change their assessment from fewer apartments to more don't have to pay back taxes. Village Counsel stated that he did not believe that homeowners could be reassessed for back taxes but he would research this matter. Don Caetano commented some owners are being assessed for more instead of less. Edna Belanich felt some of the Zoning Board members who grant these variances are not familiar with the homes in the Village. George Fitzpatrick , a member of the Zoning Board disagreed with this because he and other members have visited buildings several times before making a decision. Jim Tierney again asked the Board to consider some sort of break for senior tenants for improvements done in their apartments.

He also stated that keeping the Village clean is still a major concern. Administrator's Report The Administrator reported that the 5-K Run will start at 9AM and the Festival will start at 10 AM; we have approximately fifty vendors, antique fire trucks will be on display as well as 1992 autos, there will be pony rides, cartoon characters will be walking up and down the avenue, New York State trooper canine units will be here, entertainment will be provided, and pancake and spaghetti eating contests will be held. Resolutions-Attached Trustee Nazemetz made a motion thanking Gabriel Hayes for his time and dedication as Police Chief, seconded by Trustee Treacy and motion carried unanimously after a brief discussion. Old Business A discussion ensued between Trustee Treacy and Mayor Rey regarding the dismissal of an employee. Trustee Treacy commented that since the previous evaluations were very good, he did not understand why she was dismissed. If there was a bad evaluation, he wanted to see it and felt the Mayor did not have the power to dismiss an employee without the Board voting on it, and he felt the Mayor had overstepped his bounds. After more discussion among the Trustees on the matter, Trustee Treacy moved that the Board of Trustees of the Village of North Tarrytown does hereby direct the Mayor of North Tarrytown to refrain from terminating any employee without the voted approval of the Board of Trustees; in addition the Board of Trustees will establish the grounds of termination and terms of such termination,seconded by Trustee Alter. More discussion ensued. Motion failed on roll call vote: Trustees Alter and Treacy voting YES, and Trustees Timmings, Nazemetz, Hayes and Hyland voting NO. Trustee Treacy commented that General Motors is #1 on the list of polluters in Westchester County and would like to discuss this matter.

Plastic containers with the code number 1-4 will be picked up at the curb on Wednesdays with the other recyclable items. Public Comments Don Caetano suggested we advise residents who put gasoline in empty plastic containers not to put them out for recycling. Mario Belanich asked why we were having state troopers with canines to patrol; the Administrator stated that they are not here to patrol, they are part of the street festival. 3 �I Edna Belanich commented t h a t t h e O p e r a t i o n Clean-Up needs cooperation from e v e r y o n e .

The Village has been a very special working place for me. I have fully enjoyed all the opportunities and freedom afforded to me. The special and congenial relationship that I have had with Bill Regan and all of my colleagues, in particular Angela, has been central to my endearment for this job. I am also grateful to all elected officials, past and present, who have extended their support and appreciation to me despite my accent. I have tried to repay by working with diligence and dedication. I am glad that I have been able to make some positive contribution to the Village administration. As much as I love my job, I just can not pass the great opportunity that has come my way. Having moved from the other side of the world, I am all too familiar with the pains and tribulations involved in moving. Painful though it may be, I have decided to move, hopefully for a better future. I will try to help the Village as much as I can until a new person is hired and comfortably settled in the joo.
