Sleepy Hollow

December 15, 2009

Dear Mayor Wray
The Associations of Phiiipse Manor and Sleepy Hollow Manor request that the Village of
Sleepy Hollow adopt a resolution requesting the New York State Department of
Transport to study how the traffic on Route 9 between the traffic light at the entrance to
Phelps Memorial Hospital to the intersection of Route 9 and Pearson Ave. may be
"calmed", thereby mitigating the risk of serious accidents in this residential area.
Charles Lankester of SHMA examined the records of the Sleepy Hollow Police
Department which show that over the past 5 years there were 154 accidents, 37 of which
resulted in injuries, over this stretch of Route 9. The great majority of these incidents
impacted drivers who were attempting to turn west into the manors. Every intersection
between the manors and Route 9 was affected. Moreover, the Police issued roughly 620
speeding tickets to drivers of vehicles traveling at speeds in excess of 50 mph in this 40
mph zone.
In this context please be advised that the Police Chiefs of both Mount Pleasant and
Briarcliff Manor reported to Mr. Lankester a "great improvement" and a "calming of
traffic" over the stretch of highway north of Phelps Hospital into Ossining since the
traffic pattern was modified about 18 months ago.
We suggest you bring the resolution to the attention of Assemblyman Richard Brodsky
and then jointly bring the resolution to the attention of William Gorton, Regional
Director, NY State Department of Transportation, 4 Burnett Blvd., Poughkeepsie, NY
12603-2553. We expect DOT will request public hearings be held to discuss this proposal
and both Associations will cooperate in this regard.

Yours Sincerely,
A

James West, Vice President, Sleepy Hollow Manor Association
(Signing on behalf of Charles Lankester, President Sleepy Hollow Manor Association
and Richard Piano, President Phiiipse Manor Improvement Association)

L.

Oral presentations by the Applicant's traffic engineer, construction engineer, architect and

�fiscal consultant in which the public was given an opportunity to ask questions;
WHEREFORE, based on the foregoing record, the Lead Agency makes the following
Findings of Fact:
1.

The creation of the Southern Riverfront Development Overlay District provides the
Village with additional flexibility relative to the redevelopment of smaller parcels
while still maintaining control over the development and review process.

2.

While the amendments potentially allow for an increase in density, the Village has
evaluated the potential impacts of the approximately 70 additional units specifically
related to traffic, fiscal, visual and utility issues. Existing land uses within the
subject area include heavy truck and equipment operations which bring a unique
intensity of use from a traffic standpoint. Analysis prepai'ed by Jolni Collins
Engineers traffic consultants indicates that the anticipated traffic impacts related to
the increase in density is generally equivalent to existing operations of the existing
Castle Oil and Village DPW facilities.

3.

The Applicant has prepai'ed a fiscal analysis outlining the potential fiscal impacts
resulting from the proposed redevelopment of the Castle Oil Facility. That
evaluation contemplates a net positive fiscal benefit to the Village and the School
District. Given that there is a future potential for redevelopment of the Village
owned properties in the event the existing DPW facility is relocated, it is anticipated
that a similar redevelopment would yield similar results. It is important to note that
Village-owned properties currently do not contribute tax revenue to the Village or the
School District.

4.

The Village has prepared preliminary visual analysis that has been supplemented by
analysis prepared by the Applicant, including variations in building height and
configurations. It is noted that any request to exceed the existing height limitation
must be made in the form of a special pennit request to the Village Board. The
Village Board will take into account the compatibility of the proposed increase in
height with the surrounding residential neighborhood. As a matter of policy,
properties that may be developed on the western side of Hudson Street will be limited
in height to the requirements in the underlying RF District.

5.

The Lead Agency has, based upon materials provided in the expanded fiill EAF and
the consistency findings submitted by the WAC, evaluated the proposed action with
reference to the stated policies of the LWRP and make the following findings with
respect thereto:
The Village Board does hereby make the following determinations with respect to the

�following policy guidelines outlined in Chapter 59A-5.G. of the Village Code:
(1)

Revitalize the Deteriorated and Underutilized Waterfront Areas.
The Subject Area consists of active industrial uses that, for many years, have
been operated as an oil distribution facility and a Village public works
facility. These are inconsistent uses with the changing riverfront residential
and open space environment. The Proposed Action would create an
opportunity for the development of a new residential community with
enlianced waterfront access. At best, the industrial uses, if they remain, will
continue to be an aesthetic detriment to this portion of the Village, The
relatively limited area of the affected properties effectively precludes the
feasibility of a more varied mix of uses as may be found on the larger General
Motors site. The architectural style presented by the Applicaiit attempts to
reflect Hudson River Valley architectural elements. The proposed esplanade
would create a linkage with other public access points along the riverfront.

(2)

Retain and Promote Commercial and Recreational Water-dependent
Use.
The proposed riverfront development concept plan would include a proposed
pier and waterfront esplanade along the shoreline linldng the existing trail in
Tarrytown in the south to the existing trail sections along Horan's Landing
and Ichabod's Landing in Sleepy Hollow and from River Street to the
Esplanade. There would be a potential for accommodation of river excursion
boats along the pier. Flood and erosion protection would also be afforded by
the mutual agreement between the Applicant and the Village that the
waterfront and pier have a minimum of serviceable life of at least 30 years
prior to being made available to the public. The Applicant has further agreed
to participate with the Village to help secure grant funding to make
improvements to the Village's waterfront.

(3)

Strengthen the Economic Base of the Sleepy Hollow Smaller Harbor
Areas by Encouraging Traditional Uses and Activities.
The Proposed Action calls for the redevelopment of a currently incompatible
industiial property with a residential component that complements the
sun'ounding residential community. Data provided by the Applicant indicates
that there would be a significant fiscal benefit to the Town and School
District as a result of the Proposed Action.

(4)

Ensure That Development Occurs Where Adequate Public
Infrastructure Is Available to Reduce Health and Pollution Hazards.
The Lead Agency has considered the availability of public services and
facilities to the Subject Area and found them adequate for the Proposed

�Action. The Village has prepared an environmental impact statement for the
proposed expansion of tlie Village=s water supply and will continue to
coordinate with the Westchester County Depaitaient of Healtli regarding this
issue. The Village has coordinated with prior applications regarding
contributions on a projected per capita basis to be used towards necessary
water system improvements. The traffic analyses submitted as part of the
review of the Proposed Action indicates that there is available capacity on the
local road network to accommodate the Proposed Action.
(5)

Expedite Local Permit Procedures and Use Performance Standards for
Development Within the Waterfront Area.
This policy is not applicable to the Proposed Action.

(6)

Protect Significant and Locally Important Fish and Wildlife Habitats
from Human Disruption and Chemical Contamination.
This Policy is relevant in that the Applicant has submitted documentation that
there are existing site conditions that will require some clean up activity and
coordination with NYS DEC.

(7)

Encourage and Expand Commercial Fishing Facilities to Promote
Commercial and Recreational Fishing Opportunities.
This policy is applicable to the Proposed Action given that the Rivers Edge
riverfront development concept plan includes a pier and waterfront esplanade
which would potentially promote recreational fishing opportunities.

(8)

Minimize Flooding and Erosion Hazards Through Nonstructural Means,
Carefully Selected, Long-term Structural Measures and Appropriate
Siting of Structures.
It was noted that the existing waterfront and pier located along the western
shoreline would be accepted by the Village as part of its waterfront open
space system with a minimum of 30 years of serviceable life. The Village
Board notes that the Applicant is committed to constructing or preserving
shoreline structxires, but that the Village and the Applicant may apply for
funding to be used for waterfront improvements which may offset all or a
portion of the costs related to shoreline stmctures.

(9)

Safeguard Economic, Social and Environmental Interests in the Coastal
Area When Major Actions Are Undertaken.
The Village Board observed that due consideration to the indicated interests
and safeguards had been given, as detailed in the Proposed Actions
determination of significance.

�(10)

Maintaiu and Improve Public Access to the Shoreline and Water-related
Recreational Facilities While Protecting the Environment
At present, the Project Site is fenced and there is no public access to the
Hudson River from the property. The Rivers Edge riverfront development
concept plan includes a public esplanade along the River Vv^ith access to an
existing pier leading to a deep water navigation channel The northern side of
the esplanade will connect with the Horan=s Landing and the soutliem side
will connect to the waterfront walkway in the adjacent Village of Tarrytown.
A pedestrian connection is proposed coimecting the esplanade to River Street.
The Village Board recognizes that the principle proposed use for the Project
Site consists of a residential community and does not comprise waterdependent or water-enlianced recreational uses other than the esplanade and
pier. The Board notes, however, that the upland portions are quite small and
that the size constraints severely limit the feasibility of water-dependent or
water-enhanced recreational uses. Moreover, the public esplanade and pier
that will border the buildings on the western side of the site will provide a
degree of recreational access to the riverfront. The primary purpose of the
development is residential; anticipated demand for water-dependent and
water-related activities can be adequately accommodated at the adjacent and
much larger former General Motors development site.

(11)

Protect and Restore Historic and Archaeological Resources.
This policy is not applicable to the Proposed Action.

(12)

Protect and Upgrade Scenic Resources
The Proposed Action does not fall within any of the 23 viewsheds of local
importance as identified in the LWRP. The Village Board does note that the
Rivers Edge site has historically been unavailable to the public.
Redevelopment of tJie Project Site will create a waterfront esplanade
available to the public which will provide expansive views of the Hudson
River and its environs.
The Village Board notes that, based on comments raised as part of the
environmental review, the proposed building height was reduced. It is noted
tliat as other potential projects may be initiated as a result of the Proposed
Zoning Amendment, they will be required to be reviewed under the SEQR
procedures of the State of New York and those applicable Village
regulations.

�(13)

Site and Construct Energy Facilities in a Manner in Which Will Be
Compatible with the Environment and Contingent upon the Need for a
Waterfront or Water Location.
This policy is not applicable to the Proposed Action.

(14)

Protect Surface and Ground Waters from Direct and Indirect Discharge
of Pollutants and from Overuse.
Best management practices will be used to ensure the control of storm water
runoff, to minimize the non-point discharge of excess nutrients, organics and
eroded soils into coastal waters. These will be provided in greater detail as
part of the site plan approval process.
The Village Board recognizes that, as a matter of law, the Applicant will be
required to comply with these matters, which are governed by state laws and,
in the case of storm water runoff, by Department of Enviromnental
Conservation regulation.

(15)

Perform dredging and dredge spoil in a manner protective of natural
resources.
This policy is not applicable to fee Proposed Action.

(16)

Handle and Dispose of Solid and Hazardous Wastes and Effluents in a
Manner Which Will Not Adversely Affect the Environment Nor Expand
Existing Landfills.
The redevelopment of the Castle Oil distribution facility would eliminate the
shipment and storage of petroleum materials to this portion of the wateilront.
Clean up of the site would be consistent withNYS DEC standards. As noted
by the Village Board, the Village at one time operated its own landfill (since
closed), this action is not applicable to that condition.

(17)

Protect Air Quality
This policy is not applicable to the Proposed Action.

(18)

Protect Freshwater Wetlands.
This policy is not applicable to the Proposed Action; and

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Lead Agency having reviewed the
requirements outlined under Section 617.7 of the State Environmental Quality Review Act hereby
determines that the Proposed Action is an Unlisted Action under SEQRA and that an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) will not be required for the Proposed Action. Specifically the Lead Agency
has, on the basis of the entire record before it, determined that:

�a.

The Proposed Action will not result in a substantial adverse change in existing air
quality, ground or surface water quality or quantity, or traffic or noise levels, and that
the Proposed Action will not result in a substantial increase in the potential for
erosion flooding or drainage.

b.

The Proposed Action does not contemplate the permanent removal or destruction of
large quantities of vegetation or fauna and accordingly will not substantially interfere
with the movement of any resident or migrating fish or wildlife species, impact a
significant habitat area, have an adverse impact on a threatened or endangered species
of animal or plant, or have any other significant adverse impact on natural resources.

c.

The Proposed Action will incorporate appropriate stormwater control measures and
require that the Applicant coordinate with NYS DEC on clean up activities at the
existing Castle Oil Facility and will not impair the environmental characteristics of a
Critical Environmental Area.

d.

The Proposed Action as reviewed by the Village Board as noted above, is consistent
with the Village=s LWRP as officially adopted,

e.

The Proposed Action will not result in a major change in the use of any energy
resource but will be consistent with typical residential use.

f.

The Proposed Action will not create a hazard to human health; and

g.

The Proposed Action includes zoning text amendments which allow for some limited
increase in intensity of use as part of a special permit request to the Village Board,
However, the Village Board has evaluated the potential impacts resulting from the
increase in density as part of the environmental record and the infrastructure exists to
support that increase, and, be it further

RESOLVED, that the Lead Agency finds that the requirements of 6NYCRR Part 617 have
been met; and, be it further
RESOLVED, that after due consideration, the Mayor and Village Board of Tmstees finds that
this Project will achieve a balance between the protection of the enviromnent and the need to
accommodate social, economic and other considerations; and, be it fiirther
RESOLVED that in evaluating this application, the Village Board has relied on infonnation
provided by the Applicant. If such information subsequently proves to be incomplete and/or
inaccurate, the Village Board resei-ves the right in its discretion to modify this Findings Statement,
and/or suspend and/or revoke the special permit.

Zoning Code of the Village of Sleepy Hollow; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that pursuant to Section 62.5.2.H(2) (a-c) and
(3) of the Zoning Code, the Board determines that the Project, as defined above and modified by the
conditions enumerated in this Special Permit and Riverfront Development Concept Plan Approval,
meets the following conditions and standards:
a.

The proposed riverfront development or special use project will fulfill all of the
purposes of the Riverfront Development Zoning District and the Southern Riverfront
Development Overlay District.
The proposed Rivers Edge riverfront development revitalizes an underused portion
of the Village's waterfront and replaces a presently incompatible land use. The
proposed plan has been reviewed by the Village's Waterfront Advisory Committee
(WAC) for consistency with the goals and objectives identified in the Village's Local
Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP).
The Village Board, after a
comprehensive review and weighing all aspects of the proposed Project finds that the
Project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the LWRP provided that the
following has been addressed in response to the petition for special pennit relative

�to relief from the SRF general development guidelines;
•

Conversion of an industrial site to a residential community with waterfi-ont
esplanade;
•
Improvements to the existing pier such that the sei'viceable life is not less
than 30
years prior to being made available to the public or as further outlined
in
paragraph 6 below;
•
Installation of street improvements along River Street;
•
Contribution to the Village towards waterfront improvements;
Enlianced access from River Street to the Hudson River esplanade; and
•
•
Enlianced streetscape along the southern portion of River Street proximate to
the project site.
The proposed plan incoiporates a distinct architectural treatment, including the use
of natural looking materials distinctive roof elements and articulated facades, in
keeping attempts to create an old Hudson River waterfront community image. As
part of the overall design approach to the proposed building all mechanical
equipment on the roof will be hidden.
The Project will, as part of the detailed site plan approval process, incoiporate a
stormwater management system and site design to address both stonnwater quality
and quantity issues. The Applicant proposes to incorporate significant landscaping
which would replace currently impervious surface area, thereby reducing potential
stormwater runoff.
The proposed Project has been modified so as to mitigate to the maximum extent
practicable, the impacts on views to and from the site, specifically Hudson Street.
Lastly, the proposed plan provides permanent public access to the Hudson River
shoreline where there was none before.
b.

The proposed riverfront development or special use project meets the riverfront
development design standards set forth in Section 62-5. IV, to the extent applicable
at the special permit stage.
Riverfront Development Design Standards
A)

Comprehensive design
See discussion detailed in Item a. above, which reflects the purposes for
which the RF and SRF Districts were established.

B)

Relationship to uses on surrounding public property
The proposed Project incorporates a pedestrian connector from River Street
to the public access proposed as part of the Project. The public access area
along the Project Site would effectively connect witli the open space
component in the neighboring Village of Tarrytown with the existing open

�space along Horan's Landing, Ichabod's Landing and ultimately through the
GM property to Kingsland Point Park.
C)

Relationship to the Hudson River
The proposed Project has been designed to incorporate as much open space
along the Hudson River waterfront as practicable. The waterfront open space
ranges in dimension from 42' - 4' to 6r-0". Further, the project design
allows for the retention of views along Hudson Street and from the
neighboring Ichabod's Landing residential community.

D)

Provision of view corridors and protecting views to the Hudson River
See response to (C) above.

E)

Architectural design standards
The proposed Project attempts to create a compact, architecturally distinct
residential community. The Applicant has surveyed the lower Hudson Valley
area to incorporate distinct architectural components as part of a style that
might have prevailed in a Hudson River community prior to 1900. The
conceptual elevations prepared for the EAF, illustrate a series building
incorporating distinctive design themes, and incorporating the use of a variety
of building materials including brick, stone, wood and simulated wood.

F)

Energy conservation and efficiency
The proposed Project will exceed the standards of the New York State
Energy Code regarding the type of energy-efficient devices that would likely
be utilized within the Project, including Energy Star insulation, furnaces, air
conditioning equipment, appliances, select lighting fixtures, ventilation and
duct work, doors, casement windows, and roof design. Prior to issuance of
the certificate of occupancy for the 60"' residential unit, the Applicant shall
apply for certification from the Green Building Council's LEED program and
submit proof of application to the Village Architect. The Applicant shall
provide a copy of the Certification Report, or if not issued, then such other
documentation as provided by the Green Building Council to the Applicant,
to the Village Architect within ten (10) days of its receipt. Failure to obtain
certification shall not impact the approvals for this Project or prevent the
issuance of Certificates of Occupancy or the release of any performance
bonds. The Project will incorporate the use of water conserving fixtures.

G)

Landscaping, screening and buffering
The Applicant has submitted conceptual landscape plans prepared by IQ
Landscape Architects including those for River Street streetscape
improvements which incorporate compatible materials for parking areas,
walls, fences, curbs, lighting, benches, and landscape materials appropriate to
the site conditions and for screening purposes,

H)

Lighting

�Proposed lighting for internal access drives, walkways and other outdoor
areas will be of a ballad style comparable to that used as part of the Ichabod's
Landing development provided to promote safety and encourage pedestrian
use. Lighting type and number of locations are subject to Planning Board
review as part of site plan review,
I)

Signage
A preliminary signage layout has been provided as part of the EAF
submission. A detailed signage plan will be proposed and reviewed as part of
site plan review.

J)

Vehicular circulation system and traffic access
A site circulation system has been proposed and reviewed by the Village.
Access along the internal site drives and public access system is consistent
with sound engineering and planning standards.

K)

Public access
The proposed plan provides for meaningful public access along the length of
its waterfront. The public access includes an enlianced comiection to the
Village's Horan's Landing Park as well as a connection to the riverfront open
space in the neighboring Village of Tarrytown and a connection to River
Street. The public access area is approximately 178 feet long, varies in width
from ±42 feet along the southern boundary to ±61 feet along the western
boundary, encompasses ±0.22 acres, and is proposed to be dedicated to the
Village.

L)

Off-street parldng and loading
The Applicant has provided for sufficient off-street parking to accommodate
each of the residential units, and visitors. Stormwater runoff from parking
areas will be treated in a stormwater quality' treatment system before
discharge off-site.

M)

On-site utilities and services
During the course of the previous project reviews between the Village, the
Westchester County Department of Health (DOH) raised issues relative to the
Village's existing water supply system. Previously, the County has stated,
that they would not allow future realty subdivisions until the Village has a
plan to address the future water supply issue. The Village has completed the
environmental review process and plan preparation relative to upgrading and
improving the water supply system to meet contemporary engineering
standards. The Village has requested that the Applicant contribute its fair
share of the cost of the improvements consistent with prior applications.
All other utilities within the vicinity of the site are adequate to sei-ve the
proposed project. Further, installation of proposed utilities will be placed
underground to minimize aesthetic impacts.

�The proposed Project will be designed to comply with the Village's Flood
Damage Prevention Law.
c.

The proposed riverfront development or special-use project will be in harmony with
the appropriate and orderly development of the Village's waterfront area.
The proposed Project is the second Riverfront Development project to be constructed
along Sleepy Hollow's waterfront. Cuixent land uses include the Hudson River to the
west; Horan's Landing Park and beyond that Ichaod's Landing residential
community to the north; the Village's DPW yard to the east; and the FeiTy Landing
residential development in the neighboring Village of Tarrytown to the south. The
proposed mixed-use project is consistent with the intent of the pennitted land uses in
the RF and SRF Overlay Distiict and in line with suixounding land uses. As one of
the pioneer developments along the Sleepy Hollow waterfront, the proposed project
sets a distinctive standard with respect to architectural treatment, incorporates
significant public access area, and provides for a continuous connection of open
space from Ichabod's landing down to the Tarrytown Waterfront.

d.

The proposed riverfront development or special use project will not hinder or
discourage the appropriate development and use of adjacent lands.
The proposed project incorporates a conceptual landscape plan. The proposed
plantings will address aesthetic, screening and buffering issues. Access to and from
the site will not hinder or impact the sun'oundrng roadway network.

e.

The proposed land uses of the project will be in accordance with the approved
riverfront development concept plan.
The conceptual site plan prepared as part of the Application for Special Peraiit
constitutes the riverfi-ont development concept plan for this portion of the Sleepy
Hollow Waterfront. The concept plan has been prepared taking into account the
requirements set forth in the Village's Zoning Code, LWRP and other applicable
Village, and County State regulations.

f

The proposed riverfront development or special use project is consistent with the
policies and purposes of the Village's Local Waterfront Revitalization Program.
The Special PeiTnit and Concept Plan Approval requested by the Applicant has been
reviewed by the Village's WAC for consistency with the goals and objectives
outlined in tlie Village's LWRP and a copy of the consistency review has been
provided to the Village Board. The Village Board, as required under Chapter 59-A5.H. of the Village Code has completed their own consistency determination and
found tliat the proposed project, with modifications set forth herein, is consistent
with the goals and policies of the Village's LWRP. The Village has determined that
the Applicant provide for physical improvements consistent with similar waterfront

�treatment already established in the Village.
g.

The proposed project is otherwise in the public interest.
The proposed project, as detailed above, is only the second development along the
waterfront and a redevelopment of a key waterfront location. The proposed use
replaces a currently incompatible land use and provides for meaningful permanent
public access to the Hudson River where none existed previously.
The conceptual elevations depict an architecturally distinct design.
Locally
important view coiiidors and view sheds have been protected to the maximum extent
practicable; and, be it further

RESOLVED, that the Mayor and Board of Ti-ustees hereby approves the issuance of a
special permit and grants Concept Plan Approval to the Applicant to constmct the Project

Court has instituted including setting up the metal detector and adding another Thursday session
to the Court calendar.
POLICE CHIEF REPORT - Chief Cotarelo gave a report on recent actions taken by the Police
Department. Enforcement of the new scoff law has been very successful, the meters wil be
bagged for the holidays for the entire month of December and the speed trailer has been set up
along Route 9 to monitor traffic.
RECREATION REPORT - Representatives from AYSO, TNT, the School and Tarrytown
Recreation were in attendance to discuss field usage. Recreation Supervisor Robin Pell was also
in attendance. Discussion ensued.

�CENSUS - Trustee Campbell urged participation in the upcoming census. An accurate
population count could potentially affect future funding. The Mayor asked for a list of
individuals interested in assisting with the census,
RECORDS CLERK - The Mayor indicated that a part-time records clerk is needed to work on a
project in the building department. The work will be completely funded through a Grant.
HOUSING COMMITTEE - The Mayor informed the residents that the Housing Committee is
working hard in dealing with the illegal housing problem. The Building Department is focusing
its attention on landlords as well as tenants if violations exist.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Rita Jimenez - Asked if landlords had the right to go into a tenant's apartment if they feel there
is a code violation. Mayor Wray responded by saying yes as long as they give 24 hour notice.
Reverend Santiago - Mentioned the following issues: A damaged sidewalk on Clinton, enforcing
the dog waste law, adding a handicap space on Cortlandt Street and enforcing teen drinking. The
Mayor responded to these concerns.
Carlos Panjon - (Through an interpreter) asked if the Village could do something about
increased crime and menacing teenagers on Cedar Street. He also asked for a speed bump on
Cedar Street to slow down traffic.
Rita Jimenez - Ms. Jimenez agreed with Mr. Panjon and said that similar issues exist on
Cortlandt Street, Trustee Caposella said that all of these issues need to be addressed.
Margarita Benitez - Asked if the Village could help a resident get acceptance into the senior
citizen affordable housing building. The Mayor responded by saying that the Village didn't
determine who gets approved and denied.
Serillo Rodriguez - Complained about Village taxes. Mr. Rodiguez owns rent controlled
buildings and feels that it is unfair that the rent can't be increased even though the taxes increase.
Ms. Gandolfo said that a tax break is available to people who own rent controlled buildings.
Mayor Wray again thanked Reverend Santiago for hosting the work session.
At 9:30 p.m. the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,

Anthony Giaccio

Resolution of the Mayor and Board of Trustees of the
Village of Sleepy Hollow Adopting Native Plant Policies
WHEREAS, The Village of Sleepy Hollow has the opportunity to promote
sustainable landscapes by choosing native plants, and
WHEREAS, invasive, non-native plants are one of the greatest threats to the
natural ecosystems and the natural heritage of Sleepy Hollow and New York State;
and
WHEREAS, invasive, non-native plants are destroying our natural history
and identity, disrupting the ecology of our natural ecosystems, displacing native
plant and animal species, and degrading our unique and diverse biological
resources; and
WHEREAS, native plants enhance the beauty of the landscape, maintain
and restore biodiversity, minimize maintenance costs and the need for chemical
applications, prevent invasive exotic plants from taking root, provide habitat for
native organisms, attract native pollinators, butterflies, and birds, and protect local
ecosystems and environmental health; and
WHEREAS, native plants enrich soil by helping rain to percolate into the
soil through their root systems, thereby reducing erosion and water irrigation
requirements andfilteringstorm water runoff, which, in turn, improves water
quality; and

promote Sleepy Hollow's regional identity; and
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Mayor and Board of
Trustees of the Village of Sleepy Hollow adopt the following policies related to
native plants:

designing, planting, maintaining and managing the landscape features of all
Village roadsides, parks, public areas and other Village properties and facilities;
unless no native plant fits the ecological niche, in which case, plants which are
non-invasive and beneficial to wildlife shall be used in place of native plants.
2. Plans and specifications for any Village of Sleepy Hollow contract involving
landscaping and/or plantings shall, where practicable and appropriate, require
the use of native plants.
3. Installation of plant species noted in the New York State Top 20 Invasive
Species by the Invasive Plant Council of New York shall be prohibited in all
Village parks and on all other Village lands, along Village roadsides, and in
gardens surrounding Village buildings, and, where possible, these species shall
be eradicated from Village parks and other lands, as well as along Village
roadsides and in gardens surrounding Village buildings.
4. Site design and construction as well as plant selection shall incorporate
considerations such as biological needs, low maintenance, low water usage,
character of plant communities at project sites, and minimal need for
fertilizers and pesticides.

of native plants to the Village of Sleepy Hollow landscape.

Hollow to change the zoning from R-l to CEM (cemetery) on a parcel of property
owned by the Estate of Laurance Rockefeller located along Route 9, across from
Sleepy Hollow Manor; and
Whereas, with all actions taken by the Board of Trustees regarding amendments
to the Village zoning codes and local laws, certain procedures and protocol must be
adhered to in order to ensure fairness and due process for all residents of the Village
of Sleepy Hollow, as well as all other interested parties to the actions; and

codes and local laws must be referred to and approved by the Department of

proceedings held herein regarding said action, seeking a determination whether the
action taken by the Board of Trustees on August 12, 2008 was legal and in substantial
compliance with the relevant laws, rules and regulations of all State, County and
Village codes governing said action; and
Whereas, it appears the action of the Board of Trustees was not in compliance

adopted by this Board, does hereby rescind Resolution Number 08/171/08, dated

would help. H e also stated that the neighborhood watch is a good idea.
Kathleen Dolan of 149 New Broadway is very against stop signs and bumps but is in favor of
the island. Th e traffic of 25 mph has made a difference.
Marc Pinnis of 148 Munroe read letter from Pat Monroe (see attached). H e also stated that
he opposes stop signs and speed bumps.
Jennifer Labato Church of 85 New Broadway mentioned that this matter needs a remedy
because of children and traffic. Sh e suggested that right before Gory Brook Rd, stop signs
and speed bumps could be installed at Pine Street. Sh e supported the proposed island at
beginning of New Broadway.

Jennifer Labato said speeding is an issue. Resident s and people are familiar with
neighborhood.

Village of Sleepy Hollow
A special work session of the Board of Trustees of the Village of Sleepy Hollow to discuss the
former Duracell Property was held on Wednesday, May 6, 2009 starting at 6:00 P.M. in the
boardroom at Village Hall, 28 Beekman Avenue, Sleepy Hollow, New York.
Present:

Mayor Kenneth G. Wray
Thomas Capossela
Karin T. Worapa
David L. Schroedel

Also Present: Anthony Giaccio, Village Administrator

Sean McCarthy, Village Architect
Fay Navratil, New York State Department of Health
Mark Van Valkenburg, New York State Department of Health
Dan Lanners, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
Mike Ryan, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
Mayor Wray called the meeting to order at 6:10 p.m.
FORMER DURACELL PROPERTY- Representatives from NYSDOH and NYSDEC updated
the Board on plans to retest certain areas in and around the old Duracell Property to determine if
there are any contaminants in the area. The site was cleaned in the late 80's and early 90's and
was taken off the State's Registry of Inactive Hazardous Waste Disposal Sites in early 1994. A
recent discovery of mercury on a residential property prompted the re-testing. The Village
Board requested that the senior center, Bamhart Park and the parking lot be re-tested. Tests
results will be available towards the end of the summer. The results will determine the next
course of action. The Board will have another work session once the tests results are in.
At 7:18 p.m., The meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,

Anthony Giaccio
Village Administrator

the Village's 2009 and 2010 fiscal years exceeds five per centum (5%) of the real
property tax levy of the Village for the fiscal year in which such claims shall be paid (FY
2010)
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Trustees of the Village of
Sleepy Hollow, County of Westchester, State of New York, as follows:
Section 1.

There is hereby authorized to be issued serial bonds of the Village,

and/or bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of such serial bonds,
in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed $670,000, pursuant to the Local Finance

�Law, in order to finance the costs of the settlement of tax certiorari claims for the Village's
2009 and 2010 fiscal years, including any preliminary and incidental costs related thereto
(collectively, the "Project").
Section 2.

The Board of Trustees of the Village has ascertained and hereby

states that (a) the estimated maximum costs of the Project are not to exceed $670,000;
(b) no money has heretofore been authorized to be applied to the payment of the costs
of the Project; (c) the Board of Trustees of the Village plans to finance the costs of the
Project from the proceeds of the serial bonds authorized herein, and/or of bond
anticipation notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of such serial bonds; (d) the
maximum maturity of such serial bonds authorized herein shall be in excess of five (5)
years; and (e) on or before the expenditure of moneys to pay for any costs in
connection with the Project for which the proceeds of the obligations authorized herein
are to be applied to reimburse the Village, the Board of Trustees of the Village took
"official action" for federal income tax purposes to authorize the capital financing of
such expenditure.
Section 3.

It is hereby determined that the Project is a specific object or

purpose, or of a class of object or purpose, as described in subdivision 33-a of
paragraph a of Section 11.00 of the Local Finance Law and that the period of probable
usefulness of the Project is twenty (20) years. The serial bonds authorized herein shall
have a maximum maturity of twenty (20) years computed from the earlier of (a) the
date of the first issue of such serial bonds, or (b) the date of the first issue of bond
anticipation notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of such serial bonds.

�Section 4.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this bond resolution and the

Local Finance Law, including the provisions of Sections 21.00, 30.00, 50.00 and 56.00
to 60.00, inclusive, the power to authorize serial bonds as authorized herein, and/or
bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of such serial bonds,
including renewals thereof, the power to prescribe the terms, form and contents of such

such serial bonds and such bond anticipation notes, are hereby delegated to the Village
Treasurer, as the chief fiscal officer of the Village. The Village Treasurer is hereby
authorized to execute on behalf of the Village all serial bonds issued pursuant to this
bond resolution, and all bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of
such serial bonds, and the Village Clerk is hereby authorized to impress the seal of the
Village (or to have imprinted a facsimile thereof) on all such serial bonds and all such
bond anticipation notes and to attest such seal.

Each interest coupon, if any,

representing interest payable on such serial bonds shall be authenticated by the manual
or facsimile signature of the Village Treasurer.
Section 5.

The faith and credit of the Village are hereby and shall be

irrevocably pledged for the punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all
obligations authorized and issued pursuant to this bond resolution as the same shall
become due.
Section 6.

When this bond resolution takes effect, the Village Clerk shall cause

the same, or a summary thereof, to be published, together with a notice in substantially
the form prescribed by Section 81.00 of the Local Finance Law, in The Journal News, a

�newspaper having a general circulation in the Village. The validity of the serial bonds
authorized herein, and of bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation of the issuance
of such serial bonds, may be contested only if such obligations were authorized for an
object or purpose, or class of object or purpose, for which the Village is not authorized
to expend money, or the provisions of law, which should have been complied with as of
the date of publication of this bond resolution, or such summary thereof, were not
substantially complied with, and an action, suit or proceeding contesting such validity is
commenced within twenty (20) days after the date of such publication, or if such
obligations were authorized in violation of the provisions of the Constitution of the State
of New York.
Section 7.

Prior to the issuance of any obligations authorized herein, the

Board of Trustees of the Village shall comply with all applicable provisions prescribed in
Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law, all regulations promulgated
thereunder by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, and all
applicable Federal laws and regulations in connection with environmental quality review

the event that any of the environmental compliance proceedings are not completed, or
require amendment or modification subsequent to the date of adoption of this bond
resolution, the Board of Trustees of the Village will re-adopt, amend or modify this bond
resolution prior to the issuance of any obligations authorized herein upon the advice of
bond counsel. It is hereby determined by the Board of Trustees of the Village that the
Project will not have a significant effect on the environment.

�Section 8.

The Village hereby declares its intention to issue the serial bonds

authorized herein, and/or bond anticipation notes issued in anticipation of the issuance
of such serial bonds (collectively, the "obligations"), to finance the costs of the Project.
The Village covenants for the benefit of the holders of the obligations that it will not
make any use of the proceeds of the obligations, and any funds reasonably expected to
be used to pay the principal of or interest on such obligations, or any other funds of the
Village, which would cause the interest on the obligations to become subject to federal
income taxation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")
(except for the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on corporations by section 55
of the Code), or subject the Village to any penalties under section 148 of the Code, and
that it will not take any action or omit to take any action with respect to such
obligations, the proceeds thereof or the Project financed thereby, if such action or
omission would cause the interest on such obligations to become subject to federal
income taxation under the Code (except for the federal alternative minimum tax
imposed on corporations by section 55 of the Code), or subject the Village to any
penalties under section 148 of the Code. The foregoing covenants shall remain in full
force and effect notwithstanding the defeasance of any serial bonds authorized and
issued under this bond resolution, or any other provisions hereof, until the date which is
sixty (60) days after the final maturity date or an earlier prior redemption date thereof.
The proceeds of any obligations authorized herein may be applied to reimburse
expenditures or commitments of the Village made in connection with the Project on or

�after a date which is not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of adoption of this
bond resolution by the Board of Trustees of the Village.
Section 9.

For the benefit of the holders and beneficial owners from time to

time of the serial bonds authorized herein, and of bond anticipation notes issued in
anticipation of the issuance of such serial bonds, the Village agrees, in accordance with
and as an obligated person with respect to such obligations under, Rule 15c2-12 (the
"Rule") promulgated by the Securities Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, to provide or cause to be provided such financial information
and operating data, financial statements and notices, in such manner as may be
required for purposes of the Rule. In order to describe and specify certain terms of the
Village's continuing disclosure agreement for that purpose, and thereby to implement
that agreement, including provisions for enforcement, amendment and termination, the
Village Treasurer is authorized and directed to sign and deliver, in the name and on
behalf of the Village, the commitment authorized by subsection 6(c) of the Rule (the
"Commitment") to be placed on file with the Village Clerk, which shall constitute the
continuing disclosure agreement made by the Village for the benefit of holders and
beneficial owners of the obligations authorized herein in accordance with the Rule, with
any changes or amendments that are not inconsistent with this bond resolution and not
substantially adverse to the Village and that are approved by the Village Treasurer on
behalf of the Village, all of which shall be conclusively evidenced by the signing of the
Commitment or amendments thereto.

The agreement formed collectively by this

paragraph and the Commitment shall be the Village's continuing disclosure agreement

�for purposes of the Rule, and its performance shall be subject to the availability of
funds and their annual appropriation to meet costs the Village would be required to
incur to perform thereunder. The Village Treasurer is further authorized and directed to
establish procedures in order to ensure compliance by the Village with its continuing
disclosure agreement, including the timely provision of information and notices. Prior to
making any filing in accordance with the agreement or providing notice of the
occurrence of any material event, the Village Treasurer shall consult with, as
appropriate, the Village Attorney and bond counsel or other qualified independent
special counsel to the Village and shall be entitled to rely upon any legal advice
provided by the Village Attorney and such bond counsel or other qualified independent
special counsel in determining whether a filing should be made.
Section 10. This bond resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption
by the Board of Trustees of the Village.

Mr. Mayor,
At our meeting on April 21, 2009, the Board of Fire Wardens approved five individuals for
membership in the Sleepy Hollow Fire Department. We ask that the Board of Trustees of the
Village of Sleepy Hollow approve three of them for active status as firefighters contingent upon
the positive results of arson background checks. These individuals are Dareek Lawton of 56
Chestnut St., Sleepy Hollow; Tomas Rodriguez of 5 Pershing PL, Ossining; and Jose Rodriguez
of 5 Irving PL, Sleepy Hollow. The following two individuals are approved as Fire fighter
Trainees until they reach their eighteenth birthday. They are Jason Duran of 267 N. Washington
St. and John Aruejo of 56 Clinton St., both in Sleepy Hollow.
Thank you for your attention.
Sincerely,

Carlos S. Romero
Secretary
