MAYOR'S ANNOUNCEMENTS - Mayor Wray talked about the fire that took place on
Christmas Eve. Mayor Wray acknowledged the work done by Paula McCarthy, Anne Richards,
the Gullotta House and the entire community to help the families displaced by the fire.
POCANTICO RIVER ECOLOGICAL STUDY - Michael Rubbo, a Professor of Pace
University, asked permission to set up nature cameras in Douglas Park near the Pocantico River.
The cameras would be set up for about two weeks in remote areas and are triggered by
movement. This is a research project to determine wild life activity in the area. The Board
supported this request and asked Mr. Rubbo to share his findings.
FACILTY RENTAL FEES - Recreation Superintendent, Matt Arone provided the Board with
a proposed change to the park rental fees. The proposal is to raise rental fees for non-residents
by $100. The Board was in favor of this change and will approve this at the next Board meeting.

�NORTHEAST SPECIAL RECREATION ~ The Board reviewed a draft inter-agency
agreement with Northeast Special Recreation to provide therapeutic recreation services. This is a
renewal agreement with no fee increase. The Board said that Northeast is a great organization
that provides a valuable service and had no objection to approving the agreement.
FOOD SCRAP PROGRAM - The Board discussed participating in a food scrap program with
the Village of Tarrytown. The program would allow Sleepy Hollow residents to bring their food
scraps to Tarrytown's food scrap bin. The cost would be $200 per month. The Board was in
favor of this initiative. Tarrytown has not yet approved this agreement. Mr. Giaccio will reach
out to Tarrytown to discuss how to move forward with this arrangement.
SIDEWALK COST SHARING PROGRAM - There was a discussion about the sidewalk cost
sharing program. The program will enable residents to receive partial payment for sidewalk
repairs. The Board will need to set a public hearing on this in order to implement this program.
The Board will set a public hearing on this item at the next Board meeting.
BICYCLE SHARING POLICY - There was a discussion about setting a policy related to
bicycle sharing. Bicycle sharing companies are allowing their bicycles to be left anywhere.
This has caused a problem in other communities. The Board is looking to set a policy to prevent
this from happening in Sleepy Hollow. A public hearing will be set on this issue at the next
Board meeting.
ACCEPT RESIGNATION FROM COURT CLERK - The Board will need to formally
accept the Court Clerk's resignation. This will be formally be done at the next Board meeting.
APPROVE ST. PATRICK'S PARADE - The Board discussed approving the upcoming St.
Patrick's parade. Mayor Wray noted that Trustee Scaglione will be one of the aides in this year's
parade and congratulated her. This item will be on the next Board meeting agenda.
APPROVE CONTRACT FOR FINANCIAL PLANNER - The Board reviewed a draft
contract with Capital Markets to provide financial advice. The Board had some questions
regarding cost, but otherwise was in favor of approving this contract.
APPROVE SPCA AGREEMENT - The Board reviewed an agreement with the SPCA. This is
a renewal agreement and the fees remain unchanged. Mayor Wray requested that this item be on
the next Board meeting agenda.
At 7:50 the work session was adjourned.
