Mr. Joseph Scarano of New Rochelle , said he owned property in the
Town of Yama.ror,eck located on Fifth Avenue , Lester Place and
V.1illiams Place . He registered his opposition®
P,Tr. Leo Fish, 8 Huguenot Drive , has lived there since September ,
1929= He stated he was in favor of the closing of this road. He
--
said he had many times taken up with the Police Department , the
idea of making Lafayette Road. a ore-way street or closing it be-
cause of the dangerous corner at the intersection. of Lafayette ,
Huguenot Drive and Chatsworth Avenue , He said he believed- the
Police would verify the fact that this is a danger spot®
Mr. Pat Giacomo, P:adison Avenue , Town, stated that he is one of
the owners of property running from Fifth Avenue to Lafayette
Road. He said he believed that closing the street would decrease
the value of his property® He opposed the application. He
also stated that he believed , if the road were closed , it would
create a fire hazard®
Mr. Joe Giacomo , Tradison Avenue , Town, opposed the application,
saying if the road were closed. it would delay a fire truck going
to a fire.
Lrs . ;Sam Cariero, 627 Fifth Avenue , Town, opi_osed the application.
Mir. Anthony Cariero, Fifth Avenue , Town, said he had been there
for the past 25 years. Sewers have been put in and the section
improved® He registered opposition to closing the road.
&'_r® Golly said he owns a greenhouse on Fifth Avenue and about
30% of his customers use Lafayette and Mra.dison Avenue to come to
- his shop. He said he did not believe any of the older residents
in that section would want the road closed® T:Tany times , he said
11we need the Police because of trouble 7,ith childrenl' , etc. The
street has been there , 1Tr . Golly said. , about 40 years ; also there
has been a property dispute and his property line has been moved
8 feet, This was to accommodate a new building put up by Yr.

situation" ®

Mr. Robert G. P/oelfel , Ed.gewood Avenue , said he occasionally used
this road and he did not believe in closing public streets.
The Supervisor explained, in reply to a. request that the fire hazard
be explained , that the Chief was present but he believed it might
influence the situation in some way.
Mr. F. Tilliams said he owned 300 feet on Fifth Avenue and Lester
Place . He registered opposition.
Mr. T�loelfel asked if the situation could be explained. and Supervisor
Vandeville said he thought Mr. Ricardi could. do this.
Mr. Rex Ricardi , 15 Lafayette Road , said he and the other residents
from Lafayette Road were at the meeting to respectfully urge the
Board to dead.-end 11adison Avenue . He said some of the oldest resi-
dents of Larchmont, including Hr. Fish , Major Thompson and also the
Police Chief were in accord with this.
Mr. Ricardi said. they were concerned t-ith the deterioration of the
community. He said he did not wish to infringe on anyone ° s rights.
They get better police protection nog„ and are well aware of the fire
hazard and inconvenience they will experience if the road is closed.
He said he has lived there 6 years and has never seen apiece of
fire equipment go through Lafayette Road. He said they also appre-
ciated the difficulty of getting to the hospital in case of an
emergency but "we are willing to take that risk" . FIT. Ricardi CYent
on, "but unless we are insi.11ated in some way and I am not
spea'__ing of segregation or discrimination. In my daily life , I an
associated with an organization v�,Thich stands four-square against
anything of the sort. But we have witnessed the deterioration and
if a beach-head is established and we are compelled to move and the
assessments drop and taxes go down, ve will lose , but eventually the
section above will be affected. Then I moored in, the street was
1/2 feet higher than it is now."
- rir . Ricardi said his remarks were "not connected1rTit'_h any political
angle or monetary cause" . "There was a commercial aspect to it at
one time" , he said , "but the residents d;4dn°t go along r?ith that" .
Carnoy and Kr. 7 otter had aprroached the residents with an idea
of building multiple dwellings and closing the street , but this was
rejected..
Tt[r. flTorton H. Engel , 6 Lafayette Road said he believed it would in-
crease the value of Pat Giacomo' s property. He has seen children
nearly hit by a car on three occasions.
Er. Louis Bernstein, 1 Huguenot Drive , said. his son had a very
narrow escape. In his judgment , during the middle of the daY , 75e
of the traffic going '.down that street; . is corwiercial. He believes
the traffic goes through what is obviously a residential street, to
avoid the light.
2,1rs . Donald Hobbs , Madison Avenue , said there are 30 little c'-:ildren k
on Tladison Avenue and Lafayette Road. She said they themselves had
put up signs and she had attempted. to police the road, all to no
avail.
Mr. Giacomo registered his opposition to closing the road.
!l?rs , Leo Fish said Lafayette is a. ne':* street and she wondered what
_J people did before it was built. She was in favor of closing it.
Mr. Henry Rothman, 22 Lafayette Road, said he made a test and
started on Chatsworth Avenue and Huguenot Drive , and driving 24 miles
an hour , it took him 15 seconds. He then proceeded to go to the
same point by way of Chatsworth: Avenue and T"yrtle Boulevard and it
took 6G seconds. He said "1"e are quibbling about 45 seconds" .
I
Mr. Ralph Thite , 16 Lafayette Road said he wished to protect the
children.
Yr. Robert S. MacCallum, 8 Lafayette Road , said he had lived on
Lafayette Road 8 years and he t'-ought Mr. Ricardi had made a very
important point when he said the road had. settled 3 1/2 feet and
disregarding the traffic hazard., there has been a break in the
street at least $ times. During the summer , there was a break in the
water main on Havilands ' lawn. He said he believed from the economic
point of view, the road should be closed.
-- lir . Carnoy said there is nothing new about this problem. 1Ir . Foote
told him that when the first house was built there , Mr. Allen had
asked him to close the road.
Mr. Donald Hobbs , 97 P,ladison Avenue , said he would like to see the
street closed.
Mrs . R. bert S. 11acCallum spoke about the proposed new truck high-
way . She said a natural exit for that parkway would be there ,
which would add to the hazard of "our street" .
Supervisor Mandeville said the tentative plan for the express high-
way is to be parallel with the railroad and the outlet ;mould be at
the road near the incinerator.
YLT,.. 1ulp, II Lafayette Road , said his boy had been one of those who
was hit. He would like to see the road closed.
Mr. Sam Cariero said in all the years he has lived in Larchmont ,
there has never been such a request . He said "I never heard of such
a thing in Plestchester County" . IIe went on, M l'hen we finally got
Fifth Avenue improved and. the houses built , iTfe always welcomed.
people". Then a request was made to have Madison Avenue improved
and it was granted. 1147e can' t help the situation now. 71e helped
pay taxes for this improvement and now they don't want us to use
it . They should pay back the Town for the sewer and road and then
shut it off and make a private nark of it. If you should close
that street there is nothing to stop people from closing other streets .
In other words , I understand our tax is not just an area or district
tax but includes the whole toTVnship. If there are any more of these
requests and if this goes through I think it will be discrimination."
P.Zr. Giacomo said he owned trucks and had insurance and his insurance
cost $400. a truck and his license plates 8100. a truck.
Supervisor Mandeville said he tirould like to bring up oneuest;on.
This situation was brought about by a petition which requested a
public hearing. There was a suggestion that these people would like
to have it considered on a trial basis. In other words , instead of
closing the street entirely , there would be a barrier for some
limited time. This would naturally not eliminate foot traffic.
Mr. Ricardi said this had been his suggestion and he felt they had
earned the right to a trial.
Councilman Embury asked what Mould be thought of a traffic light or
a slower speed limit . The answer was in the negative.
Councilman Hills asked if every property owner on the street had
agreed to the closing . The reply was "yes" . .
A letter , dated. September 14th , 1949 , v'+"as received. from Charles i4®
Baxter , an attorney, stating that he represented 7auve Realty Corpor-
ation and that they were opposed to the closing of Madison Street .
Supervisor Yandeville announced the public hearing closed and said
the Board would adjourn to the Council Room.

operations necessary to control a fire in this part of the house have
been simplified and expedited because the additional stairs provide
easier and more convenient means of entrance. Considering the age and
construction of the premises possibility of a serious fire is, at a
minimum.
