, a member of the Concerned Citizens Coordinating Committee, a real and active, citizen's
group, having regular meetings, an elected spokesperson, Mr. Mark Fry, and formed to represent and *
protect the interests of the local community in the ongoing definition and clarification of the details of
the GM / Roseland development of Lighthouse Landing.

I

The Committee membership draws from a diverse constituency of the local community, including
representatives from, or consultation from members of, many other concerned local groups including but
not limited to PMIA, SHMA, Sleepy Hollow Families for a Legendary Waterfront, Scenic Hudson,
Riverkeeper, and Clearwater.
The Committee deeply respects the time, work, and thought that the Mayor's office and Board of
Trustees has put into this project, and into listening to the community at large, to date.
However, as it is our main responsibility to represent the concerned smaller voices of many local
citizens as a * focused* voice in these public forums, we are here today to clearly state five basic points
concerning the current plan for development, which are viewed by many in the community to have been
inadequately addressed.
As these points are viewed by this committee to have been inadequately addressed during the period of
public comment, we respectfully request this Board to act in good faith, on behalf of the citizens that
they serve, and submit in writing, answers or clarifications to each of these five points.
We understand that the nature of a project like this sometimes necessitates the changing of schedules,
and we understand the value of your closed work sessions. At the same time, there must be proper
consideration given to the public voice, and we applaud the suggestion that a specific Lighthouse

Landing meeting be held in June.
As such, we respectfully request that this Board submit the responses to our five points in writing, and
announce a date for the June Lighthouse Landing meeting, by [[two weeks time]]. It is our greatest hope
that these issues may be clarified easily, with simply more details or facts; and it is our pledge to you
that we will continue to represent the community and work with you to clarify the points that will take
more work.
We ask you this as concerned citizens, all of us living as neighbors in the same small community,
seeking to work in positive collaboration to produce the best development for all of us.
Given the current environment surrounding this project, including the recent DEC &amp; Riverkeeper news,
we expect that your desire to ease the growing community concern, and to not cause any further
consternation or isolation, will lead you through to work with us, in the same professional and
responsible tone that we are setting here, to help answer these outstanding issues for the entire
community.

�Riverkeeper wants state's new environmental
chief to dump GM cleanup plan
Len Maniace
STAFF
SLEEPY HOLLOW - Riverkeeper has asked the state's new environmental
commissioner to reject his agency's own cleanup proposal for contamination at the
former General Motors site and to come up with a more stringent plan.
The action was "urgently needed" because the village of Sleepy Hollow is nearing
completion of its review of Lighthouse Landing, a massive project for the 97-acre site,
said Robert Goldstein, the Tarrytown-based environmental group's general counsel.
The move by Riverkeeper seeks to take advantage of the changes in the state Department
of Environmental Conservation resulting from Eliot Spitzer replacing George Pataki as
governor.
"Wc think this is an opportunity for the Spitzer-Grarmis DEC to show it is not going to
follow in the footsteps of the Pataki DEC," said Goldstein, citing his organization's
dissatisfaction with the state's cleanup efforts under the former governor. Alexander Pete
Grannis, Spitzer's choice for state environmental commissioner, was approved by the
state Senate at the end of March.
Lighthouse Landing calls for 1,250 housing units, a 110-room hotel, office and retail
space as well as parks. However, before the project can be built the site must be, in the
language of the law, "remediated" or cleaned up.
The issue comes down to how much lead, chromium, trichlorcthene and other
contaminants should be removed from the site. T h e state's draft remediation plan
released earlier this year, before Grannis became DEC commissioner, called for a stricter
cleanup than previously proposed by the developer, Roseland Properties. For instance,
the slate plan calls for removing soil contaminated with 5,000 parts per million of lead or
greater from portions of the site.
Roseland proposed cleaning up only soil contaminated with at least 10,000 part per
million of lead.
The state plan was still criticized as insufficient by Riverkeeper, which contended that
contamination left behind would find its way into residents of the future development
and into the nearby Hudson River.
Roseland's operating partner Jonathan Stein declined to discuss the merits of
Riverkeeper's request, other than to say that his company had worked for several years
with the state's environmental and health departments to produce a cleanup plan.

�\on
In the past, Roseland's Stein has said a stricter cleanup - replacing most of the
contaminated soil with clean soil •• would prove so costly that the site could not he
redeveloped.
DEC spokeswoman Kim Chupa confirmed that Grannis had received Riverkeeper's
letter. She said she believed it would be addressed after the April 28 deadline for
comments on the cleanup plan. A public hearing the state plan was held March 28.
Sleepy Hollow Mayor Philip Zegarelli said he had not seen Riverkeeper's letter, but said
the village also had concerns. Though Zegarelli praised the state's cleanup plan, he said
Friday that questions arose as village officials further studied the report.
"Reading between the lines, there may be a couple of things we may want to revisit,"
Zegarelli said. "It obviously centers on what level and to what degree the different
cleanup areas are to be addressed."

I

It's not clear how Riverkeeper's request might affect Sleepy Hollow's own environmental
review of the proposed development. A draft of the village's "environmental findings" or
requirements for Lighthouse Landing are expected to go before the Board of Trustees in
early May. Zegarelli said he hoped the panel could give its final approval for the project
within an additional two months.
Goldstein said the plan relies too heavily on a 2-foot layer of clean soil placed atop
tainted soil. Heavy rains from the recent nor'easter flooded portions of the former GM
site, causing erosion, something that Goldstein maintains would increase the likelihood
that humans would come in contact with contaminants.
Goldstein disputed Stein's contention that a stricter cleanup would make redevelopment
prohibitively expensive. GM has an obligation to clean up the site, he said, whether or
not the land is redeveloped.

The SPCA of Westchester (SPCA) will provide and maintain a shelter for seized, stray,
and homeless dogs and cats. A stray is defined as a previously owned animal running at
large that is ;friendly and safely handled by people.
The SPCA will no longer accept any cat deemed feral for the sole purpose of euthanasia
otherwise known as the "catch and kill" method of population control. The term feral
refers to a cat that has had little or no human contact during its natural life and cannot be
handled within reasonable means. This population has been created and perpetuated by
human failure to control the breeding of domestic household cats.
The SPCA of Westchester does hereby endorse non-lethal Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR),
when accompanied by ongoing feral cat management, as the most effective, humane
method of controlling feral cat populations in Westchester County. Through TNR, cats
are humanely trapped and sterilized and tested for FIV/FELV. If positive for either
disease, feral cats will be humanely euthanized. If negative, feral cats will be sterilized
and placed back into the environment in which they were living. Cats that have been
sterilized are ear tipped - one centimeter is removed from the tip of the left ear - to
identify that they are part of a colony.
To that end,ithe SPCA will accept a cat deemed feral from a contracted municipality that
has adopted and abides by a TNR policy for all such animals. The SPCA will provide
feral cats with spay/neuter procedures and rabies vaccinations contingent upon the said
municipality retrieving the animal within 2 business days and re-releasing it to the area in
which it was found.

STEP Narrative
Fatalities and personal injuries resulting from motor vehicle crashes continue to be a serious .
societal problem, A large percentage of these traffic crashes can be directly attributed to speeding and
other aggressive driving behaviors. While public information and education efforts help prevent some
of these incidents, directed traffic law enforcement is t h e proven key to eliminating these behaviors and
their resulting crashes.

I

This agency agrees to participate in the "STEP" To Reduce Unsafe Driving Behaviors
component of the Comprehensive Traffic Law Enforcement Program, to target speeding and
aggressive driving violations in its jurisdiction. "STEP" is an acronym for Selective Traffic Enforcement
Program, which refers to planned enforcement activities targeting identified crash causing traffic
violations and/or behaviors at their specific tfmes and places of occurrence.
This agency also agrees to analyze its crash problem with respect to where, when and why they
are occurring and to develop enforcement strategies to prevent them. These strategies will be primarily
directed at speeding and other aggressive driving violations including: failure to yield the right of way; '
following too closely, unsafe passing.or lane usage a n d disregarding traffic control devices, including ,
red light running and other moving violations. Strategies may include traffic'details, checkpoints, .
saturation patrols, dedicated roving patrols, corridor enforcement, or any other reasonable effort
designed to reduce the jurisdiction's crash problem. Multi-agency efforts are highly effective and are
strongly encouraged. Coordinating selective traffic enforcement details in conjunction with other traffic 3
safety programs is also encouraged; conducting these details during National Lifesavers Weekend,
Fourth of July weekend, or periods during county or regional special enforcement efforts such as
blanket patrols can greatly increase their impact, ft is also understood that this agency, using funding
provided in this STEP grant, will actively participate in a coordinated speed enforcement mobilization
(dates to be announced) during the summer months.

I

Passing a stopped, school bus is an aggressive driving act that occurs thousands of times each
school day in New York State. To reduce the frequency of occurrence and to protect our children, this
agency may also use a portion of the grant budget to participate in Operation Safe Stop Day (a
program that seeks to advise the public about the dangers of passing, a stopped school bus through
enforcement and education) on a date to be announced in March of 2007. To be reimbursed for this «
activity this agency wHhcomplete and submit an Operation Safe Stop Violation Report (availablejfrom
the GTSC website) within one week of the enforcement detail
In addition, this agency agrees to use the S T E P funding provided by the GTSC, in a dedicated
status, to support overtime selective enforcement patrols targeting speeding and aggressive driving
viofations. A s previously noted, personal services funding is provided to support overtime activities;
dedicated regular time expenditures will only be reimbursed for part-time officers, who by the nature of
their ernpfoyment are not eligible for overtime status. It is understood that grant funding will be used to
supplement existing traffic law enforcement activities and that the agency will be required to specifically
identify and justify costs attributed to this project, during the time period specified in this grant
application. Agencies not vouchering for the actual rate of individual participating officers will be asked ^
to explain and justify the requested hourly rate.
Finally, this agency agrees to report all STEP grant related activity twice annually, by April 15
and October 15, 2 0 0 7 , using the GTSC STEP Semi-Annual Progress Report form HS-9A.

Re: Ted Forgo Vacation Entitlement
While out on workers' compensation, Ted Forgo was on a reduced salary from
August 9 to February 28, returning to work on March 1, 2007.
Mis worked at his full rate of pay for 161 days which is 44% of the year.
As per the Teamster contract, his vacation should be prorated accordingly.
Original vacation entitlement is 184 hours x 44% = 81 hours.
Mr. Forgo used 48 hours. Remaining hours eligible for carry over is 33 hours.
If you have any questions regarding this calculation, feel free to contact me.
