MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF THE TOWN BOARD OF THE TOWN OF
MAMARONECK, HELD JANUARY 21, 1953, IN THE AUDITORIUM OF THE
WEAVER STREET FIRE HOUSE, TOWN OF MAMARONECK.
Supervisor Mandeville called the meeting to order at 8: 15 P . M.
PRESENT: Supervisor Mandeville
Councilmen Embury, Kane and McKeever
ABSENT: Councilman Waterman
Presence was also noted of the Clerk, Mr. Gronberg, the Attorney,
Mr. Delius, the Accountant, Mr. Finson, the Superintendent of
Highways, Mr. O'Brien, and Police Chief Yerick.
The Supervisor said the Board would dispense with its regular
order of business and hold the public hearing which had been ad-
vertised for this meeting, in connection with property known on
the Tax Map as parts of Parcels L+63 and L+73 and all of Parcel 556,
Block 410.
The Clerk read the published notice of the hearing.
The Supervisor then said he would like to state his position. He
is in the business of selling real estate and his firm had been
called upon by the First National Stores, Inc. to recommend a site
for a shopping center. After about 6 months, the property in
question was decided upon. He said he had no intention of voting
on the matter nor had he discussed it with any of the members
of the Board.
The Supervisor said he would follow the usual procedure in these
hearings and call first upon those in favor of the application.
Mr. John N. Thompson, a real estate broker, 1880 Palmer Avenue,
said he represented Castro Convertible, a furniture show room at
1289 Boston Post Road, who wishes to urge the granting of this
re-zoning application.
Mr. Joseph P . Johnston, 17 Bonnett Avenue, an attorney for Mr.
and Mrs . Henry Dietz, the applicants, addressed the Board and
explained the application in detail. He explained that stores
could be built on the property line to a depth of 100 feet but
it is felt that the appearance of the building and the safety of
the people who would patronize it, will be better served by having
the building set back 150 feet and the parking in front.
Mr. Thomas B. Sutton, a real estate broker with an office at
179 Boston Post Road, believes something should be done about
the parking situation in the Town, before it is "too later',
and the Town needs the shopping center.
Those in opposition to the application spoke next.
Mr. Price H. Topping, 32 Carleon Avenue, President of the
Howell Park Civic Association, said his association had invited
the buyer and seller to send representatives to a special meet-
- - ing at which this matter had been thoroughly considered. Mr.
Johnston attended this meeting . The Association is unanimously
opposed to the granting of this change of zoning. If, however,
an application were made for a zoning variance, he would support
it, provided it were "only for the time the property is leased
by the First National Stores?' .
155
Mr. C . Benjamin. Brush, Jr., 24 Elkan Road, represented the
Elkan Park Association. That Association is opposed to a change
of zoning.
Mr. William G . Ball, Jr. , 19 Concord Avenue, represented the Sixth
District Home Owners' Association of Larchmont. He opposed the re-
zoning application but thought, perhaps, an application for a vari-
ance should be made.
Mr. Frank X. O'Donnell, Jr. , 100 Palmer Avenue, an attorney,
thinks the "main danger point in the application is that the
change in zoning permits the owner to use the property for any-
thing and it might later be used for an apartment house" . He
would, therefore, be in favor of an application for a variance.
Mr. Theodore S . Bates, 40 Pine Brook Drive, representing the
Pine Brook District Property Owners' Association, Inc. said he
would go on record "that any change should be done by way of a
variance" .
Mr. Arthur D. Greenleigh, 24 Rock Ridge Road, thinks "it is most
unfortunate that our Town has so little regard for long range
planning that the Town has been allowed to go along as it has" . He
hopes " steps will be taken to prevent the situation from getting
worse."
Mr. Charles R. Bragdon, 4 Rock Ridge Road, also believes the
property in this area "which was originally residential" , has been
allowed to deteriorate along the Post Road.
The Supervisor asked the contractor to address the meeting, to
explain his plans.
--- The Contractor submitted pictures and armounced that if the build-
ing is erected, the property will be tied up for 35 years by First
National Stores. Parking in the rear is desired in order that the
building be set so that over-flow parking will be in the rear. It is
planned to have the stores 3 feet above the sidewalk. The proposi-
tion includes the use of the entire plot which means that the en-
tire property will be tied up for 35 years.
Mr. A. Garofalo, 24 .Weaver Street, asked about the water problem.
The following went on record as opposing the application:
Mr. Otto Scheubel, 3 Rock Ridge Road
Mr. Fred L . Maggini, 87 Palmer Avenue
Mr. Fred N. Dodenhoff, 23 Weaver Street
Mrs. Charles R. Bragdon, 4 Rock Ridge Road
Mr. Harry E. Seanor, 7 Rock Ridge Road
Mr. Richard T . Loche, 10 Rock Ridge Road
The Supervisor declared the hearing closed, as there was no one
else present who wished to be heard.
Mr. William A. Donovan, 175 Main Street, White Plains, an attor-
ney, appeared with reference to the matter of the application of
Walter E . Hager, for a curb-cut permit.
Mr. McKeever stated that originally Mr. Donovan, on behalf of
Mr. Hager, had submitted a sketch map and profile showing the con-
struction of the driveway and that, at his request, this original
sketch and profile map had been amended and the Town had been fur-
nished with a map made by Sal Spinelli, licensed surveyor, dated
November 3, 1952.
157
After discussion, the Town Attorney was instructed to prepare a
resolution in proper form for submission to Mr. Donovan for his
approval, said resolution to be discussed at the next meeting
of the Town Board.
Mr. Bernard L. Miller, 286 Weaver Street, appeared in connection
with the acquisition of part of his property for the Weaver
Street sidewalk, and discussed with the Board, the situation in
which he finds himself. He asked that the Engineer and Super-
intendent of Highways visit the premises and accurately set out
the premises required for the sidewalk and the area to be taken
by the Town. The Board advised him that this would be done .
Supervisor Mandeville suggested that the present fence be re-
placed by an open wire one.
Mr. Miller said he wished, at this time, to go on record as objecting
to the parking on Heather Lane.
Mr. C . W. Moody submitted blue prints of property he will develop
in the area of Winged Foot Drive and Fenimore Road, known as Block
204, Parcel 247 on the Assessment Map of the Town and said he would
like to have some "advice" . After hearing Mr. Moody and seeing his
maps, the Board went on record as approving his plans for bringing
water and sewer to the area.

minutes of December 17th, 1952, were approved as submitted.
