Altieri, Town Administrator Connie Green O’Donnell, Assistant Town Administrator William Maker, Jr., Town Attorney CALL TO ORDER - WORK SESSION On motion of Councilwoman Katz, seconded by Councilman Jeffery King, the Work Session was unanimously opened at 5:00PM. ADDED ITEM Request for Street Light – Murray Avenue Supervisor Seligson reported that a resident has requested a street light be installed on Murray Avenue, between Forest Avenue and Weaver Street. Mr. Altieri would like to review protocol by other municipalities for such requests. Mr. Altieri will report back. Review of Town Fee Schedule The Town Clerk brought to the Town Board’s attention the need to update the Town’s Fee Schedule as listed in the Town Code. The Town Clerk is recommending that this be reviewed and amended as needed at the first Organizational Town Board meeting in January of each year. The Board reviewed and amended the fees, with final approval for the regular agenda this evening. Review – Preliminary Scope of Work – Comprehensive Plan The Town Board reviewed a first draft of a request for proposal for the development of a comprehensive plan for the Town. Mr. Altieri noted that he used as templates examples from other municipalities. Mr. Altieri asked the Town Board to review the proposal with the anticipation of a deeper discussion at the th February 28 meeting. The Town Board noted that the discussion should include review of the previous Master Plan from the 1980’s, the Hazard Mitigation Plan and the Sustainability Plan. Councilman Jeffery King also noted that the Board needs to consider a projected time frame for a plan, should this be a ten year, fifteen or twenty year plan. Review – Proposal – Design of Madison Avenue/New Jefferson Street Intersection The Town Board reviewed a memo from Mr. Altieri dated February 2, 2018, discussing the proposal from Barton & Loguidice for professional engineering services for a traffic signal and boulevard study at Madison Avenue, New Jefferson Street and Fifth Avenue. The concept for a traffic signal replaces the concept for a round-a-bout which was estimated to cost more than $3million. One of the conditions for approval of the Cambium Condominiums was for the developer to install the traffic light. The developer has remitted to the 1 February 7, 2018 Town $250,000, and the Town will be responsible for the development of the intersection and traffic light. Mr. Altieri requests the Town Board approve the proposal from Barton & Loguidice to study the intersection of Fifth Avenue and New Jefferson Street at a total cost of $8,500. This item is on the regular agenda for this evening. Review – Proposed Legislation - Membership of Town Planning Board The Town Board reviewed the draft legislation from Mr. Maker with respect to reducing the number of Planning Board Members from seven to five. Councilwoman Elkind Eney questioned the reduction of Alternates from two to one. The Board agreed there should be two Alternates and asked that the legislation be amended to reflect that. The setting of a public hearing for this legislation is on the regular agenda for this evening. Discussion – SCRIE Program – Senior Center Rent Increase Exemption Program The Town received correspondence from Chuck Lesnick of the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal, requesting that the Town raise the maximum income for eligibility in the Senior Citizen Rent Increase Exemption Program (SCRIE) to $50,000. In 2015 the Town Board approved an increase in the maximum income limit from $16,500 to $29,000. The Town Board reviewed a schedule of the maximum income established by other municipalities in Westchester, noting that the Village of Mamaroneck level is $35,000. The Town Board also noted how many other municipalities do not participate at all in this program. The Town Board agreed to raise the maximum income limit to $35,000, and asked that its approval be on the th February 28 meeting agenda. Review – DEIS Comments – Hampshire Country Club Proposal Supervisor Seligson previously reported that she and Mr. Altieri were invited to meet with the owner and attorney for Hampshire Country Club, Dan Pfeffer and Susan Goldberg to discuss the current proposal for the Hampshire Country Club currently before the Village of Mamaroneck Planning Board. The current proposal is for 105 new houses, 60 single family homes and 45 ‘carriage houses’. The newest proposal differs from the previous plan which was for more clustered housing around the main club house. Supervisor Seligson noted that the clustered houses required a zoning change by the Village of Mamaroneck, and although clustered houses would have been less invasive to the entire property, a zoning change was not entertained by the Village of Mamaroneck. This newest proposal does not require a zoning change by the Village of Mamaroneck, and it is unresolved as to whether it will receive Village of Mamaroneck approval. The Town Board has previously sent its concerns with respect to the previous proposal in a letter dated November 6, 2015, and the Town could send its concerns relative to this newest proposal prior to the upcoming public hearing. Supervisor Seligson reiterated that the Town has no legislative authority over this development as it is all being developed on Village of Mamaroneck property. th Supervisor Seligson noted that at the January 25 Town Board meeting it was the intention of the Town Board to appoint Karen Khor to the Sustainability Collaborative, but her appointment was inadvertently left off the resolutions. Christina Battalia noted that the Town Board could make this appointment now during worksession. On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney, seconded by Councilwoman Katz, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that the Mamaroneck Town Board does hereby appoint Karen Khor as Member B of the Sustainability Collaborative, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the foregoing appointments shall be effective immediately upon the appointees taking and subscribing the oath mandated by section 25 of the New York Town Law and shall expire on December 31, 2018. 2 February 7, 2018 ADDED ITEMS Supervisor Seligson noted that the Sustainability Collaborative met last night, noting enthusiastically that twenty-one people attended. There were Town and Village residents in attendance. There will be a joint meeting of the three municipal Sustainability Committees in March, with the VFW as the probable location. Supervisor Seligson noted the upcoming showing of the movie Wasted, being hosted by the Sustainability rd Collaborative on March 3. The Sustainability Collaborative is working on a concept for bike lanes on N. Chatsworth Avenue, with additional discussions for bike lanes on Fenimore Road, Forest Avenue and Rockland Avenue. These bike lane concepts will be presented to the Town Board at an upcoming worksession. The Town Board received a handout describing solar paneled Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations. Supervisor Seligson noted that a logical location would be the Hommocks Ice Rink, but she would like the Town to consider what would be the best location. Supervisor Seligson would like to see a local installation somewhere in the Town. The Town Board discussed the current petition circulating within the community for a moratorium on development. This is developing because of the current situation with a drastic increase in enrollment within the school district. The Board asked Mr. Maker what the process would be for such legislation, and Mr. Maker explained that the Town would need a plan or a concept for a moratorium, explaining further that the Town cannot impose a moratorium just to talk over an issue. Mr. Maker questioned the legality of a moratorium pertaining to this particular issue. Update – LMCTV – Operating Space The Town Board reviewed correspondence from the Village of Mamaroneck Mayor, Tom Murphy. Mayor Murphy is asking the Town and the Village of Larchmont to address the unresolved issues with respect to the proposed lease agreement between the Village of Mamaroneck and LMCTV with respect to the Mamaroneck Village Firehouse at 147 Mamaroneck Avenue. Mayor Murphy is requesting that the Town and Village of Larchmont respond to these issues, so that LMCTV can move forward with either finalizing the lease or move in a different direction. The Village of Larchmont has sent a letter to the Village of Mamaroneck stating that they are not willing to forgo their franchise fees. Supervisor Seligson asked the Town Board to decide whether the Town is willing to forgo the Town’s franchise fees. Mr. Maker stated that the franchise fees are being misstated by LMCTV, adding that the franchise fees are municipal funds, and that the implication that these funds are distributed to the municipalities by LMCTV is inaccurate. The reverse is in fact the case, in that the municipalities receive the franchise fees, it is then the municipality’s prerogative to fund LMCTV with these funds. Mr. Altieri further questioned the legality of Town funds being utilized to renovate a building owned by the Village of Mamaroneck, adding that by State law this is not legal. At minimum the Town would require an establishment of legal interest in the building or a pay back of the invested monies. The same issues would apply to the PEG monies, but they are not being used to fund a building in another municipality. The Town Board is in agreement to not forgo the franchise fees. Mr. Altieri gave an update on rd LMCTV’s move to the 3 Floor of the Town Center, noting that the contingency budget for the move was $4,700, but LMCTV is currently over budget by $11,000. Mr. Maker stated that the original 1.4million estimated budget for the renovation project for Mamaroneck Avenue Firehouse was below the WICKS Law threshold, but now the project is estimated over 1.5million, so WICKS law would apply. Retirement Reporting for Elected & Appointed Officials The Town Board reviewed a memo from Christina Battalia addressing the Retirement Reporting for Elected and Appointed Officials requirement. At the start of new terms elected and appointed officials who choose to participate in the retirement system need to fulfill reporting requirements. Additionally, there are current elected and appointed official already participating who will need to also fulfill these requirements. Christina Battalia discussed the necessary paperwork required for those participating. ADDED ITEM 3 February 7, 2018 Signage for the Town Center, Senior Center, Hommocks Park and Town Entry The Town Board reviewed a memo from Barton & Loguidice estimating pricing for the proposed signage at $50,000. Supervisor Seligson noted that the Board should consider this in the context that signage has not been updated in the Town for over 30 years, and that uniformity of signage throughout the Town is an important element. Mr. Altieri noted that this will have to go out for formal bidding. Library Budget The Town Board recently met with the Village of Larchmont Trustees and the Library Board and Director to discuss the Library Budget. The Town Board has questions regarding the $30,000 budgeted for the renovation of the stairway leading to the lower level. Mr. Altieri will speak with the Library Director for clarification of the cost and work to be done. The Board postponed approval of the Library Budget until the next Town Board Meeting. Hommocks Ice Rink Locker Rooms Councilwoman Elkind Eney reported on the current status of the proposed renovations to the Hommocks Ice Rink Locker Rooms. The Mamaroneck High School Varsity Hockey and the Men’s League have lobbied for showers for the locker rooms. A trust fund was established and fund raisers have been held over the last four years to fund this project. There is currently $60,000 in the trust fund. At this point a specific plan needs to be in place in order to continue fundraising. Councilwoman Elkind Eney discussed the options being discussed and noted that additional specifications need to be analyzed before a final plan is determined. The League is hoping that engineering drawings could be ready for the next fundraiser in order to fulfill donators’ needs for an agreed upon and concrete plan. CALL TO ORDER - REGULAR MEETING The Regular Meeting of the Town Board was called to order by Supervisor Seligson at 8:00PM, she then pointed out the location of the exits.

It was my pleasure to swear in the 2018 officers of the TMFD including Chiefs Paul Tortorella, Shawn Hughes and Joe Russo, all of whom are serving their second consecutive year as chiefs. I was asked to meet with a group of RNHS students who are interested in doing a project about water. I always enjoy meeting with students and talking about environmental-related work. Several people from our community attended the Bedford 2020 Environmental Summit this past weekend, including Jaine Elkind Eney and me. The large Summit focused on Climate Change and was very well attended. There were presentations about communicating about climate change, personal and community actions to reduce climate change and interesting scientific information. A municipal elected officials group met in the late afternoon to discuss local actions. I’m looking forward to the arrival of two electric vehicles the Town will lease this year. The Sustainability Collaborative met last night and 21 people participated. It is exciting to see residents from all three communities interested in working and coordinating with the Town on environmental programs like bike lanes, electric landscaping equipment, healthy gardening, reusable bag initiative and community solar. The environmental committees from all three municipalities plan to hold a joint meeting in March.
