Mayor Wray called the work session to order at 7:00pm.
MAINTENANCE CONTRACT FOR SCADA SYSTEM - The Board received a memo from
Dolph Rotfeld Engineering related to a SCADA maintenance contract. SCADA stands for
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System and is needed to monitor the Village's water
system. Proposals to maintain this system were recently solicited and Dolph Rotfeld
Engineering recommended Arcadis of White Plains, New York to provide this service. The
Board was amendable to this.
SOLICIT BIDS FOR TURF FIELD - Mr. Giaccio asked for authorization to solicit bids for the
Barnhart Park Turf Field Replacement Project. Village Architect, Sean McCarthy has completed
specifications for this project and there are funds available in the capital budget. The Mayor
requested that this item be on the next Board meeting agenda.
GREENBURGH TASK FORCE IMA - The Board reviewed a draft Inter-Municipal Agreement
to continue to participate in the Greenburgh Task Force. The task force is made up of
individuals from the police departments of all Greenburgh Villages the Town of Greenburgh and
Sleepy Hollow. Police Chief, Anthony Bueti said that the task force has been very successful
and would like to continue to participate. Members of the Board agreed that this has been a
worthwhile program and saw no reason not to renew the agreement. Mayor Wray asked that this
item be on the next Village Board meeting agenda after review by the Village Attorney.

�SCENIC HUDSON TRAIL COMMITTEE - Mayor Wray informed the Board that he intends on
appointing members to the Scenic Hudson Trails Committee. Scenic Hudson recently completed
a trails study and this Committee will help implement recommendations made in the Study.
This Committee will also work with Tarrytown and Scenic Hudson to make recommendations
for new walking trails that connect the two villages.
EAST PARCEL CONCEPT PLAN - Mayor Wray invited the Board to attend the next Sleepy
Hollow Local Development Corporation meeting, which will be held on December 19, 2016.
WSP Engineering will be at this meeting to discuss the East Parcel concept plan.
HIGH SCHOOL INTERNSHIP - Trustee Spiro informed the Board that she has arranged for a
High School intern to help with the Village's website. Trustee Spiro has been working with the
School to find the right person for this internship. The Board was in favor of this and thanked
Trustee Spiro for her efforts.
WATER METERS PAY STRUCTURE - Mayor Wray started the discussion. The Village is
about to install new water meters throughout the Village. The Board is contemplating how to
charge for the cost of installing these meters. The cost can be charged through the water rates or
per meter spread out over three years. The Board felt that the fairest way to charge is per meter.
Mayor Wray requested that this item be on the next Board meeting agenda.
POCANTICO STREET PEDESTRIAN SAFETY - Trustee Spiro has been working with Deputy
Mayor Rosenbloom and Trustee Scaglione to come up with ideas of improving pedestrian safety
on Pocantico Street. The group visited a school in Pleasantville, which has effective signage and
recommended similar signage for Morse School. Trustee Spiro observed the Pocantico Street
crosswalk during School drop off and had ideas on how to improve things including potentially
moving or eliminating the crosswalk. Trustee Sprio said that School should be involved in the
decision making. Trustee Leavy offered to meet with the School. There is a possibility that
parking spaces will be eliminated if the crosswalk is moved and so a public hearing would be
required.
ALARM PERMITS - Trustee Leavy started the discussion regarding amending the alarm permit
fee and fine. Alarm permits are being renewed and so the fees need to be set. Mr. Giaccio
provided the Board with fee schedules from other municipalities. The alarm permit fees are
consistent throughout the County. Police Chief Bueti joined the discussion. The Board asked
Chief Bueti about the number of false alarms that are received each year. Chief Bueti said that
most of the false alarms are from the large institutions. The Board felt that it was not necessary
to change the fees at this time.
SPEED LIMIT IN PHILIPSE MANOR - This matter was tabled

�EXECUTIVE SESSION
On a motion made by Trustee Leavy and seconded by Trustee Gebler and carried unanimously,
the Board moved into executive session to discuss contract negotiations.
On a motion made by Trustee Scaglione and seconded by Trustee Gonzalez and carried
unanimously, the Board moved out of executive session.
At 8:50 the work session was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,

Village Administrator
