ZONING AMENDMENTS PUBLIC HEARING (CONTINUATION): Mayor Wray
solicited comments from the public regarding proposed zoning amendments.
Mike Savitsky said that the Village Board needs to consider the impact on current residents and
business owners before deciding on any zoning changes. There were no other comments.
Motion was made by Deputy Mayor Scaglione, seconded by Trustee Andruss to adjourn the
public hearing until August 24, 2021. Motion passed 5-0.
COURT AUDIT: The Village Court's annual audit for fiscal year 2020 has been completed.
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT: Mayor Wray started the discussion about the ARPS
Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Fund. The Village will be receiving $1,026,166 from this
fund. There are certain criteria for how the funds can be used. Mayor Wray asked Trustee
Andruss to solicit project ideas from other Village Board members and keep a running list.
Continued discussion on this will take place at future Board meetings.
SET PUBLIC HEARING FOR STOP SIGN: The Board considered setting a public hearing
to install a permanent stop sign at the corner of Beekman Avenue and Cortlandt Street. A

MASK POLICY: Mayor Wray started the discussion regarding implementing a mask policy
for employees who are not vaccinated for Covid-19. This is in response to an up-tick in Covid19 eases throughout Westchester. This policy will go into effect as soon as all employees can be
notified. The Village will also implement a policy requiring masks be worn at all times by
visitors who enter Village Hall.
WATER MAINTENANCE OPERATOR II: Mr. Giaccio asked the Board's permission to
call for the Civil Service list for Water Maintenance Worker II. This position is currently vacant
and the water department is short-handed. The Board was amenable to this request and will vote
on it during special session.
NYCOM TRAINING: The Board reviewed a draft resolution allowing the Treasurer, Village
Clerk and Deputy Clerk to attend the NYCOM training seminar in September. The Board was
amenable to this request and will vote on it during special session.
REQUEST TO USE PLAZA: The Board reviewed a request made by D&amp;W Party Store to
hold a community event at the top of Cortlandt Street. The Board recently installed a temporary
plaza at Cortlandt Street and Beekman Avenue to encourage this type of activity. The Board was
in favor of working with D&amp;W Party Store to help plan this event.
KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS: Trustee Andruss started the discussion about Key
Performance Indicators. Key Performance Indicators are quantifiable measures used to evaluate
the success of an organization. An ad-hoc made up of three trustees will be established to work
on this initiative. The committee will meet with department heads and the administrator for
input. The committee will consist of Trustee Andruss, Deputy Mayor Scaglione and Trustee
Rodriguez.
LIQUOR LICENSE REQUEST: The Board discussed a liquor license request made by the
owners of 228 North Washington Street. Mayor Wray said that there are a few details that need
to be worked out, but sees no reason to object to this request.
DOWNTOWN REVITALIZATION INITIATIVE: Mayor Wray informed the Board that
applications for the Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) are due in September. The Sleepy
Hollow Local Development Corporation will complete the application, but the Village Board
will need to pass a resolution in support of the application before it is submitted. The Village
has applied for this special $ 10 million grant since its inception. Discussion ensued.
