Consolidated Plan

Westchester Urban County Consortium
Village of Sleepy Hollow
Downtown Revitalization Strategy

Introduction
The Village of Sleepy Hollow's Downtown Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy serves as a section of
the Westchester Urban County Consortium's FY 2000-2004 Consolidated Plan. There are several
benefits to establishing the designation of the Downtown Neighborhood. There is a benefit to the entire
Westchester Urban County Consortium as public services provided within the Neighborhood
Revitalization Strategy Area are exempt from the Consortium-wide 15% cap on public service projects.
At the same time, it enables the Village the opportunity to concentrate on providing public improvements
and services in an area where the need is clearly documented.
in addition, the establishment of the Downtown Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy will relieve
businesses within the Area of the burden of a detailed documentation related to the County's Economic
Development Loan Program - a program which has been successful in retaining jobs for low and
moderate income persons within the Village. Clearly the greatest benefit of the establishment of the
Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy is that the Village will be able to undertake important community
development activities within the framework of a well thought out and comprehensive plan, thereby
improving the overall effectiveness of the Village's effort.
For the 2000-2002 round of the Westchester Urban County Community Development Block Grant
Program, the Village of Sleepy Hollow has proposed to initiate a comprehensive revitalization initiative
in the downtown neighborhood district. This Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy program seeks to
create partnerships among the key stakeholders in the community in order to best deliver needed
programs and services to the predominantly low and moderate income community in order to improve the
overall quality of life of area residents. In addition, the program addresses the area's economic needs
through a comprehensive economic development program designed to spur businesses to relocate or
expand into the area and ultimately, to create jobs. Related public facility improvements and the
elimination of blighting influences are included in this comprehensive initiative.
.Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area Boundaries:
The Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy area of the Village is comprised of Census Tracts 116.01,
116.02, and 116.03. This area is bounded by the former General Motors assembly plant and the Metro
North Railroad tracks to the west. It runs along the south side of Beekman Avenue and Broadway, with
Broadway (Route 9) to the east, and Division and College Avenue to the south. See Map IV-E.
This area encompasses the downtown, an industrial area, and a part of the Village's waterfront area. This
area is primarily residential in that the majority of buildings in the area provide some type of housing.
For example, many of the stores provide dwelling units above the storefront. Many of the streets in the
area provide single or multi-family dwelling units with no business. There were a total of 1.407 housing
units at the time of the 1990 Census. The Beekman Avenue business district is part of this Strategy Area,
as many stores have housing on the second and third floors. There is an industrial area in the
southwestern end of the Village that again, includes housing units.
The Strategy Area also includes 86 units of public housing and numerous multi-family buildings. During
the course of the 25-year history of the Westchester Urban County Consortium. Over SI million of
CDBG funds has been spent in this area rehabilitating and stabilizing the affordable housing stock for low
and moderate income residents.

Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area Demographics and Social Indicators:
Enclosed is a profile of census tracts 116.01, 116.02. and 116.03. These three contiguous tracts comprise
the entire Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area. According to 1990 Census data, of the total 3,769
residents in the area, 1.976, or 52%, are classified as low to moderate income. The population living in
this area is predominantly renters (87.3%) with a family income well below the County median.
Approximately 31.2% are non-white and 55.7% are Hispanic, and these percentages are expected to
increase dramatically with the 2000 Census as there is much evidence that these populations are
continuing to grow.
Resources within the Neighborhood revitalization Strategy area are limited. From a housing standpoint,
the North Tarrytown Public Housing Authority is the only local non-profit housing agency. They manage
86 units at Margotta Court within the NRSA and are currently pursuing the acquisition and rehab of a
seven-unit building across the street from the Housing Authority's campus. The new units would be
affordable rental units.
The Community Opportunity Center of the Tarrytowns is well established to serve the needs of some of
the low- and moderate-income youth in the area, particularly many of the bi-lingual youth. As 19.S% of
the area's population is under the age of 15, this is a critical need.
With only 6.6% of the Strategy Area's population being over 65, services for seniors are less important,
and for years the village has shared services with the neighboring Village of Tarrytown to provide a van
service for seniors to doctor's appointments and shopping. But a growing senior population is starting to
place more demands on the Village to provide their own services.
The Strategy Area has numerous transportation resources available to its residents. Access by rail. car.
boat, bus and foot is readily available. The central business district and the waterfront area are clearly
accessible to the residents of the area. As Beekman Avenue heads west from Route 9 (Broadway), it
provides direct access to the Hudson River and the Hudson Line of Metro North. It is surrounded by the
Long Island Sound. Sleepy Hollow is served by several lines of the Westchester County Bee-Line bus
service to the downtown area; it is a designated stop on Metro North Railroad for access to and from New
York City: is easily accessible from the Cross Westchester Expressway and Route 9; and has several cab
companies.
Assessing Needs:
To complete the Villages FY 2000-2002 CDBG applications, the Village had cause to take a careful look
at itself and the needs of its residents. The assessment studied various aspects of the Village needs
including: housing, public services, public improvements, and economic development.
The Village has a history of maximizing available CDBG funding to rehabilitate its main streets. The
Beekman Avenue area of the Strategy Area has seen significant improvements within the last decade
through the completion of sidewalk, streetscape and facade improvements. Additionally, the Village has
made progress toward advancing the 52 unit goal established under the Housing Allocation Commission
to create 5.000 new units of affordable housing by the year 2000. The Village has created at least 25 units
of affordable housing since 1990. The Village continues to pursue additional affordable housing creation
and rehabilitation projects.
The Village does not operate its own local Section 8 Rental Assistance Program. It relies on the County's
proszram to serve the 914 households in the Strateev Area. Of these, there are 16-4 households currently in

�Consolidated Plan

Westchester Urban County Consortium

the program in the Village. An additional 62 households from the Village are on the waiting list for
assistance.
Minimal day care for low- and moderate-income families exists within the target area with most families
making their own arrangements or not seeking employment to take care of children. So public services,
particularly expanding day care opportunities, is a priority of the Village.

I

The Village, being located along the Hudson River, suffers from being a very low-lying area. Drainage
and other physical improvements have been neglected for a number of years. Deteriorating sidewalks.
curbs, and lighting have contributed to the Strategy Area's somewhat poor economic and physical health.
In the Industrial Area of the Strategy Area alone, the Village estimates that approximately 25% of all
businesses have code violations, while the central business district violations probably hover closer to ten
percent of the buildings.
Housing units tum over very quickly regardless of their physical condition due to the very limited
availability of rental and affordable homeownership opportunities within the County.
The economic health of the Strategy Area declined substantially with the closing of the General Motors
production Plant in 1996. Not only did this create substantial unemployment for area residents, but also a
lost customer-base for area businesses. The area has been fairly stable in the last few years, primarily
because of the large contracting firm that was brought in to dismantle the 2 million square foot facility.
The Village has stressed the need for physical improvements to the facades of the central business district
to encourage better use. Unemployment in the area is pretty low with the current growing economy. A
growing labor pool is Hispanic immigrants who make themselves available for jobs on a daily basis.
Setting Goals:
The Village has identified several goals that it wishes to undertake within this strategy area. The goals
relate to improvements the Villages will be undertaking relating to housing, services for seniors and
youth, physical improvements, and economic development.

I

The Village has identified several goals that it wishes to undertake within this strategy area. First, the
Village will work toward the stabilization of the existing housing - specifically, the reduction and
elimination of housing code violations and the rehabilitation of 15 units within the next five years. The
Village, through its Building Department, will seek to increase enforcement and compliance of code
violations for Housing Quality Standards - particularly looking to reduce the number of overcrowded
units within the Strategy Area. The Village has estimated that approximately one third of the existing
rental housing units are presently overcrowded - a condition that has grown to this level within the last
ten years. The Village will make referrals to the CDBG Property Improvement Program as necessary to
encourage landlords and moderate income homeowners to take advantage of rehabilitation dollars
available to them.
Second, the Village will work toward the creation of additional affordable housing units, particuhjly in
areas where houses are run down and abandoned. The Village will work to create an additional 50-60
units of affordable housing within the next five years to meet the goal established by the Housing
Opportunities Commission.
In the area of increasing services for seniors, the Village has identified the need to expand its own senior
transportation service within the Village in neighboring areas by purchase of a second senior citizen van,
and to develop a senior community center to provide concentrated nutrition, exercise, educational and
related programs and activities.

I

�4 &lt;-« /••

In conjunction with code enforcement and other outreach to property owners, the Village will apply for
funds in the Fiscal Year 2005-2006 CDBG funding round to undertake the following improvements in
priority order:
A. Bamhart Avenue/Francis Street/Andrews Lane/Elm Street: would be targeted for street,
sidewalk, curb, street tree and lighting improvements (also in support of the Bamhart Park project).
B. Clinton Street: would be upgraded with curbs, sidewalk, and street tree improvements pursuant to
our prior application. Storm drain improvements as was done on Cedar Street would probably be
made as part of this project.
C. Valley Street: Sidewalk and storm culvert adjacent to the Margotta Courts in the new proposed
senior housing development together with beautification improvements in the area could be
undertaken either with CDBG funds or through the County's HIF - Housing Implementation Fund
program.
D. Continental/Pocantico Streets: Would be improved with banners, street trees and sidewalk curb
repairs (as necessary) to enhance the appearance of this important street which connects the
downtown business core with the Philipsburg Manor Restoration, and to tie together prior
improvements to Route 9 and Beekman Avenue.
E. Lower Beekman Avenue: Would receive streetscape improvements consisting of historic lights
to replace the current cobra heads and banners, all designed to upgrade this "gateway" to support new
development on the waterfront as well as the Beekman Avenue residential/commercial corridor.
F. New Senior Center: Funds will be requested for rehabilitation (not purchase) of the former
UA W building as a senior center. An income survey would be conducted of the current senior
citizen's club to ensure the project was eligible for funding.
G. New Senior Van would be purchased.
