The Authority was able to negotiate with Tarry Hall which is behind the building to have extra parking. There are no longer issues relating to parking for the building. Trustee Grala reported that there was a Library meeting. They are working with both Villages to discuss the need to reduce the expenses which will be a challenge. It has been noted that during these 1 �economic times, there are more people using the library. Trustee Grala advised that the Library is looking for a new Director. Trustee Grala reminded that there is a fundraising event on Saturday, February 7, 2009, "A Night of Soul", 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. to be held in the library; for tickets contact Jennifer Ross. Trustee Wompa - no report. Trustee Wray reported that the Public Safety Committee met to interview candidates for promotion to Lieutenant and believes they are ready to discuss that personnel decision in Executive Session tonight. Administrator's Report Community Development Block Grant - Community Development Block Grants were awarded this past Friday. We were informed that three Village projects will be funded. We will receive $100,000 for phase 3 of the senior center, $200,000 for Route 9 Streetscape Project and $248,200 for improvements to the Devries Park Playground area. Considering the state of our economy, I would call this a successful outcome for the Village. Kingsland Point Park IMA - We have received a draft Kingsland Point Park IMA from the County. I have sent a copy of the changes to the Village Board for review. I believe that we have succeeded in improving the agreement for the Village. Under the new contract the Village will be able to generate more revenue from user fees and will have more control over the park. Although we were unsuccessful in getting a contribution from the County to help offset the costs of maintaining the park, the County has agreed to contribute significant funds towards the restoration of the Lighthouse. 100 College Arms - We are going to try and meet with the 100 College Arms Tenants Committee the week of January 26. We would have met with them sooner, but County Legislator Lois Bronz has been on vacation. Mr. Giaccio also reported on today's meeting with the County Planning Department, Jim Hahn, Fiona Hodgson and Sean McCarthy at which they reviewed the closing out of the Barnhart Park project. Mr. Giaccio reported that the Barnhart Neighborhood Streetscape project is moving along. He also reported that another streetscape project for Pocantico Street will be forthcoming. Resolutions - See attached. The resolutions relating to bonding (R-4 A-E) were carried over to the January 27, 2009 meeting to have a full Board present. Resolution 5 relating to the senior center bid was taken off the agenda for further discussion at the next Work Session. The Mayor asked the Board if they wanted to keep the Work Session for March 17th which is St. Patrick's Day and also the day before the election. It was agreed to keep the Work Session on for March 17th. Trustee Wray requested a sources and use of funds report for the senior center project.

Mayor will contact Martin Ginsburg as to where we are on the water bill matter. Old Business Trustee Capossela asked Trustee Wray if the Public Safety Committee could address the over night parking of commercial towing vehicles on Old North Broadway in the area of the Flower Box.

Discussion ensued. Mario Belanich of North Washington Street addressed the Board about the ConEd shut off notices and if they were for the entire building.
