�(po^
and the fire department in the aid provided to the Van Tassell particularly in pumping out the
water. There was approximately 800,000 to 1 million gallons of water entered the Van Tassell
basement. With quick action on the part of the Village on Friday afternoon, we helped them
pump out the basement. We also had a series of meetings led by Mr. McCarthy to get the
management to focus on the repair and update of the facility. The Village responded in a way
that other Villages ever would particularly since we have the manpower and equipment to do so
and willingness to impress upon the Van Tassel! management to get things done.
Public Comments
Mario Belanich of North Washington Street spoke about the parking meters not being covered in
early December as Tarrytown does.
Mr. Belanich spoke about the Headless Horseman landscaping bids and why when originally
talked about statue going to be built and installed it was to be done by donations. Now
soliciting bids. Why taxpayer has to pay?
Mr. Belanich wanted to know about the towing contract.
Mayor responded to his comment about the parking meters that we did the same as last year.
He further responded that yes all the items relating to the statue were to be paid by donation,
but donations did not come in. Bids came in higher than expected and rejecting the bids and
looking to either re-bid or do piecemeal or perhaps use money out of the parks fund.
Relating to the towing, Stiloski Towing is the only eligible candidate because certain things have
to be met such as restrictions of equipment, storage facility, need to meet requirements of the
code and be able to impound.
