�MEMORANDUM

I

TO:

Mayor Philip E. Zegarelii

FROM:

Dwight H. Douglas

DATE:

October 11, 2006

RE:

Parking on Valley Street

In response to a complaint from Gail Anderson that tickets were being issued for parking on
Valley Street between College Avenue and Depeyster Street, I informed Ms. Alexander that the
Board's action eliminating parking meters on the street were only done from the intersection of
College Avenue to the municipal boundary at Tarrytown.
Chief Warren and I then toured the Valley Street corridor in anticipation of the major
construction to start on the senior housing project and are recommending that we bag the 20
meters on Valley Street between Depeyster Street and College Avenue in order to provide
additional space for residents in the area. It appears that there is minimal utilization of these
meters so that the economic impact on the Village budget would be nominal. Additionally, we
have recommended that the alternate side hours for this section be a uniform banning of
vehicles between the hours of 9:00 to 10:00 in the morning. This would discourage commuters
from utilizing these spaces.
Please advise as to how you would like to proceed with this.
