Present: Also Present: Mayor Gandolfo Trustee Fudall Trustee Caro Trustee Fine Trustee Galgano Trustee Ceconl Trustee Salman Roll Call R. Thomas Homan, Village Administrator John Hughes, Jr. Village Attorney Mayor Gandolfo called the meeting to order with a pledge to the flag. There were no Public Hearings. Gerald Bregman, owner of Ross Hardware, addressed the Board asking why the Village is not buying from him any longer and they are shopping outside the Village? He commented that if the Village is looking for more stores to be opened in the Village, why buy outside the Village. The Mayor commented that sometimes we could buy through the County package for less money than shopping locally. She also commented that she would send the General Foreman to see him so he could compare prices. Armando Galella, an employee of Frank Chevrolet, Inc. commented that he felt it wasn't fair that the Village didn't check with them to compare prices before buying four Chevrolets even though it was through a County contract. Public Comments Mayor Gandolfo commented on the orderly fashion in which the name change debate is being conducted. The Mayor then read a list of estimated costs for the Village name change. These were the approximate Immediate cost figures. (Copy attached) After the Mayor's report on the expense involved in the changing of the name, there were numerous comments from the public. Those in favor of the name change again said that the name of Sleepy Hollow would bring new business to our town and give North Tarrytown a new image. Those residents who spoke against the name change again said that the cost would be too great and many hidden costs would surface later; also that changing the name would not solve our problems. Mr. Belanich asked the members of the Board how they were going to vote on the name change. Trustees Fine and Caro said No, Trustee Salman said Yes. The others did not comment. The Mayor read a letter from Anthony Sarli tendering his resignation from the Environmental Council effective March 1, 1988. The Mayor asked that a motion be made to accept his resignation with regrets. Trustee Ceconi so moved, seconded by Trustee Galgano and carried. The Mayor read a letter from the Italian American Loyalty Organization inviting the Board to a Festa Primavera on April 9, 1988. r uomm . . ]J"Jj[*Jlons R " �-2Mayor Gandolfo received a memo from Sal J.

The Mayor read a letter from Marcia Lee, Director of Intergovernmental Relations for the County regarding County Executive Andrew O'Rourke's Comprehensive Recycling Plan for Westchester County.

Trustee Galgano stated that she just received a memo from Robert Peirce regarding the non-conforming apartments. She stated that she has not had time to review it, but will make copies available to the members of the Board. Trustee Salman reported that the areas of Sleepy Hollow Manor which he mentioned at the last meeting still have not been checked into. These roads are still sinking and he feels that they may be undermined and they need professional evaluation. The Mayor commented that they will be taken care of as soon as the warmer weather sets in. _ R p I Trustee's Reports �-3- 3/J2- Trustee Caro reported that the Rezoning Committee proposes to have Hudson Street changed to a residential area and is asking that the Village Board call for a Public Hearing on this. The Mayor stated that the Board would discuss this at a work session and she suggested that Trustee Caro invite them to the Planning Board meeting on March 10, Trustee Caro suggested that perhaps a short period of time in the Spring could be set aside to vacuum unbagged leaves that turn up after the snow has melted. The Admlnsitrator will speak to the General Foreman regarding this. Trustee Fine suggested that there should be a conserted effort made for a real Spring clean-up throughout the Village. Trustee Salman commented that about two years ago,the Village did set aside one day for all residents to clean out their basements, yards* etc. Trustee Fine reported that she attended a Philipse Manor Improvement Association Executive Council meeting regarding the fire alarms in Philipse Manor. This matter will be pursued further at the next regular meeting of the PMIA as to whether to replace the faulty alarm boxes or to remove them if they have not been used very often.

Resolutions Mayor Gandolfo asked if there was any old business. The Village Attorney, John Hughes, Jr. stated that Joseph Brachitta, owner of Custom Kitchens on River Street would like to lease a small piece of property on River Street which belongs to the Village. He would need this for parking. The rental for this piece of property would be $750 a year until the year 2010. The Mayor asked that a motion be made for the Board to enter into an agreement with Joseph Brachitta for the leasing of this property. Trustee Ceconi so moved, seconded by Trustee Caro and carried. The Village Attorney will draw up the contract Trustee Ceconi asked about the police contract and the impact on our budget. The Mayor stated this would be discussed in Executive Session. Trustee Salman inquired about the vote on the water rate increase. The Village Attorney stated he had not looked into yet, but would do so.

Trustee Galgano made a motion to approve the warrants with one change» hold back payment to Nat Pico & Sons, seconded by Trustee Fudall and carried. This payment was held back due to the amount of work left unfinished by this contractor. Approval of Warrants Mayor Gandolfo asked that a motion be made to adjourn to Executive Session to discuss the employee salaries and the police contract. Trustee Fudali so moved, seconded by Trustee Galgano and carried. Mayor Gandolfo adjourned the meeting. Adjournment Discussion ensued on whether the resolution approving the transfer of funds for salary Increases for non-union employees should be worded differently or should there be two seperate resolutions; one for the transfer of funds and the other giving the specific amounts for each title. It was decided that the later should be done at the next meeting. Executive Session Discussion on the resolution which was passed at the February 16, 1988 meeting regarding the police contract took place, the Mayor commented that the wording of the resolution was being disputed by John Henry, Director Labor Relations.
