Delehanty:
"In reply to your inquiry of September 10th, I wish
to inform you that detailed plans are well under way
for the construction of the new Fifth Avenue waste
water pumping station in New Rochelle and for a new
-7-
section of the sanitary sewer leading from the Town
of Mamaroneck to this station. It is planned to re-
ceive bids for the pumping station early in December,
1969 and to award a contract for construction early
in 1970.
Timing for the start of construction on the sewer
portion of the work depends on a number of time-
consuming factors which are difficult to evaluate
at this time. However, efforts will be made to
__. have the sewer work completed by the time that the
pumping station is ready to receive increased flow."
The Supervisor stated that a copy of this letter had been for-
warded to Mr. Hayden Smith, President of the Larchmont Hills
Association, for informational purposes since many of the resi-
dents in that area had been concerned for some time about this
matter.

Summary conducted by Mrs. Janet Clark, Chairman of the Health and
Safety Committee of the Murray Avenue PTA, enumerating the number
of residents favoring and disfavoring the construction of a pro-
posed sidewalk along the west side of Weaver Street from Bonnie
Way to Murray Avenue. She stated that the total number of families

the survey.
The Supervisor then asked the Attorney what the next steps
were - and was advised that every possibility for acquisition
of the needed property through negotiation should be explored
and the construction costs estimated.
Councilman Nagel stated that he felt the Board should proceed
with the necessary steps with all due haste, and Councilman

the Survey presented this evening.
And thereupon, on a motion by Councilman Nagel, seconded by
Councilman Vandernoot, the following resolution was adopted

is authorized and directed to explore every ave-
nue in an effort to achieve an amicable acquisi-
tion of the property necessary for the construc-
tion of the proposed walk through negotiation,
and be it further

the interest of the public safety through such
negotiation should fail, the Town Attorney be and
he hereby is authorized and directed to institute
condemnation proceedings for the acquisition of
the property necessary for the construction of
the proposed sidewalk on property adjoining the
west side of the right-of-way of State Highway,
Route 125, known as Weaver Street, between Bonnie
Way and Murray Avenue in the Town of Mamaroneck,
which the Town Board has deemed a public necessity
for the safe traffic of students and the general
public.

ningham's retirement from the Town's Police Department after

Additional Refuse Transfer Trailer
Councilman Faiola presented for the Board's information, a

of September 30th, 1969, which advised that the Joint
Disposal Commission was requesting bids for one additional
refuse transfer trailer, returnable as of October 3d, and
which was herewith ordered received and filed for the
record.
Councilman Nagel --
Councilman Nagel stated that although he had no report on
the agenda, he did have 4 questions he would like to ask
at this time as follows:
1. Whether there was a report on the plans for
a new Police Station?
In reply, the Supervisor stated that there was
no report at this time.
2. Whether there was a report on the Town Hall
proposal at Central School?
In reply, the Supervisor stated that costs for
rent, moving, necessary alterations, etc. were
being obtained at this time.
In addition, she further reported that several
additional offers of supplementary space to the
present quarters were being investigated.
3. What action had been taken about Mrs. Widmark's
complaint?
The Supervisor briefly reviewed Mrs. Widmark's
several calls in complaint of the noise and dis-
turbance she suffered from children playing on
-11-
the property at the rear of the Firehouse im-
mediately adjoining her premises - which had
been referred to the attention of the Fire
Chief, and asked Councilman Faiola whether he
cared to make any comments on what action had
been taken.
Councilman Faiola replied that he had no par-
ticular comments but called on the Fire Chief
who stated that as far as he knew there was
no policy nor any rules which prohibited the
children from playing on the property. He
said that he did not feel therefore that it
was his perogative to order them off the prop-
erty - but that if a policy was deemed ad-
visable and the Commission would establish it,
the men would enforce it.
A discussion followed as to whether it was fav-
orable or unfavorable for this property to be
used as a sort of "neighborhood playground" -
which concluded with the Board directing that
the matter be referred to the Superintendent
of Recreation for study and report to this
Board.
4. Whether the date of the next meeting should be
changed in view of the Village of Mamaroneck's
Fire Inspection, Parade and Dinner on the 15th?
In reply, it was unanimously
RESOLVED, that the date of the next regular
meeting of this Board be Thursday evening,
October 16th, rather than Wednesday evening,
October 15th, in view of the Village of Ma-
maroneck Fire Inspection, Parade and Dinner
on the 15th.
Councilman Vandernoot --
1. Report on P.S.C. New Haven Hearing
Councilman Vandernoot stated that the Supervisor, the Attorney
and he had attended the P.S.C. Hearing on the New Haven at the
New Rochelle City Hall on the evening of September 30th and
that he had indeed been most favorably impressed by the fine
facilities at the new City Hall.
He stated that he had been sworn in as a witness and had
testified that he was not presently a commuter though he had
been since 1936 - first from Mount Vernon and then from
Larchmont - until his unconditional surrender about last April
1st in the interest of safety. He had further testified, he
said, to his concern because nothing was being done about
safety and just about everything had happened to the line -
and had concluded that if some way could be found to put the
New Haven back on a business-like basis and to be made safe,
he and his four companions would be happy to come back and
be commuters.
He then asked the Supervisor whether a report on the con-
ference she and Mayor Goldsmith had recently had with the
M.T.A. was ready, and was advised, in reply, that the Mayor
and she were working on the report and hopefully that it
would be available within the next several days.
