Second Quarter Financial Report Additionally Present: Tracy Yogman Town Comptroller The Town Board reviewed the memo from Ms. Yogman and Mr. Altieri, titled Fiscal Year 2019 Second Quarter Budget Report, dated August 7, 2019. Ms. Yogman noted that projections demonstrate a better quarter than the previous quarter. Ms. Yogman pointed out a few noted changes in line items from last quarter. Review of Proposed Operating and Capital Budget Amendments Additionally Present: Tracy Yogman Town Comptroller As a result of the quarterly review of the budget, the Town Comptroller is recommending a number of budget amendments that reflect spending through the first half of 2019 as well as anticipated spending through the end of the year. These amendments will be formally adopted during the regular meeting this evening. Supervisor Seligson noted the recent call with Moody’s, adding that the Town anticipates its rating shortly. Review of Written Comments – Commuter Parking Law In preparation for this evening’s Public Hearing, the Town Board reviewed the comments received from the public, most of which were not in favor of the law. It was stated that the law requires signs be installed no further apart than 200 feet. The total cost of signage is approximately $22,500, with the law as written. ADDED ITEM Bag Waste Reduction Law It was noted that the draft law still states $0.10 per bag, and should be changed to $0.05. It was also noted that NY State law may allow for stricter municipal laws to remain in effect. The Town received a letter from the Food Industry Alliance of New York State, Inc., and among other comments, there is a request to hold 1 August 21, 2019 over the public hearing until the next Town Board Meeting, in hope that the Town Board would consider some of the changes being advocated by the Food Alliance. The Town Board reviewed the comments of the Food Industry Alliance, specifically to hold off on the passing of this law, until after Labor Day when the DEC is expected to comment on the NY State law. The Food Industry Alliance is also asking that the law not be effective until January 31, 2020. The Town Board discussed holding over the public hearing until September 4. Follow Up- Sanitation Services Report The Town Board reviewed the report dated April 27, 2019, and discussed, among other items, once a week pick up and curb side only pick up. Mr. Altieri is suggesting a hold off on moving forward with curb side food waste pick up as the process for this is still very much undetermined. The Town Board is inclined to maintain current commercial pick up. The Town Board also feels strongly that any changes in personnel should be done through attrition. A public meeting should and will be scheduled, so residents have a chance to discuss the options and make their opinions known. Discussion – Comprehensive Plan Deferred Update – Planning for 2020 US Open Discussion – Proposed Temporary Fence Law Mr. Altieri noted that the Planning Board would like to know what the emergency plan is, and asked if the plan is for lights to be on 24 hours. The Police deployment is still being worked on. State Police will be deployed outside the Town. Mr. Altieri recently met with the USGA and Winged Foot Golf Club noting that they have agreed to a green initiative, as well as donating any unused food. They are actively seeking volunteers to manage waste stations. Currently the plan is for parking to be at Westchester Community College, Orchard Beach and Purchase College, with shuttles from each. VIP parking for Uber and Lyft is suggested to be at Harbor Island. There is also a push to minimize cars on the property, in this effort a shuttle is being provided to members of the Club. Mr. Altieri reported that the Club will be fenced in entirely, similar to 2006. With security challenges not present in 2006, the proposed fencing exceeds heights in the Town Code. At this time it is recommended to consider a temporary fence law. This law would be for properties of 50 acres of more, essentially the golf courses. A law of this type would cover not only this event, but other instances where a temporary fence might be necessary. It was noted that the USGA and Winged Foot Golf Club came before the Planning Board to discuss the plans for this event. Mr. Maker and Mr. Altieri will work on a draft Temporary Fence Law as well as one addressing the prohibition of drones. Update – LMCTV – Van Operation/Third Floor Renovation The memo from Mr. Altieri dated August 12, 2019, discusses the plan for LMCTV to purchase a production van. The Village of Mamaroneck will purchase the van through NYS Contract and the Town would allow its fueling through the Town’s yard, were the dispensing system is automated and the record keeping is more efficient. With respect to the Office/Operating space at the Town Center, LMCTV is proceeding with the design of the renovation. Due to these renovations the relocating of the existing tenants will need to take place, and Mr. Altieri has requested that the architects also submit a proposal to the Town for these alterations. The architect’s proposal is on the regular agenda for this evening. ADDED ITEM Mr. Altieri noted the difference in the funding percentage for the CDBG application. The Town Board asked whether the sidewalk on Harmon was still a priority with the lesser funding, and Mr. Altieri replied, yes. On motion of Councilwoman Fiddelman, seconded by Councilman King, the Board unanimously agreed to enter into an Executive Session to discuss appointments to Boards and Commissions. 2 August 21, 2019 EXECUTIVE SESSION Appointments to Boards and Commissions. On motion of Councilwoman Fiddelman, seconded by Councilwoman Elkind Eney, the Board unanimously agreed to resume the Regular Meeting. New Business Supervisor Seligson further explained the consulting agreement for the ‘Reducing Wasted Food Grant Program’, noting that this is an attempt to reduce wasted food. The Town Board asked for more specific deliverables from the consultant. The Town Board would like to move forward with the initial consultant, but would like a better breakdown of expenses between the Village of Larchmont and the Mamaroneck School District. Supervisor Seligson stated that the Town has offered the Town Center as a site for early voting and awaits confirmation from the Board of Elections. CALL TO ORDER - REGULAR MEETING The Regular Meeting of the Town Board was called to order by Supervisor Seligson at 8:15 PM, she then pointed out the location of the exits.

PUBLIC HEARING - “Mamaroneck Bag Waste Reduction” law The following Notice of Public Hearing is entered into the record as follows: NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING LEGAL NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that pursuant to Section 130 of the Town Law of the State of New York, a Public Hearing will be held on Wednesday, August 21, 2019 at 8:00 PM or as soon thereafter as is possible at the Town Center, 740 W. Boston Post Road, Mamaroneck, New York to consider: “Mamaroneck Bag Waste Reduction” law. 4 August 21, 2019 Purpose The State of New York amended article 27 of the Environmental Conservation Law by adding a new Title 28 (Bag Waste Reduction) which will become effective on March 1, 2020. The purpose of this local law is to incorporate the new state law into the laws of the Town of Mamaroneck. The Town Board determines that a shift to reusable bags in most retail transactions will benefit the overall health, safety and welfare of the Town and the environment. The Town Board also finds that a fee for using non-reusable bags is essential if there is to be a transition to reusable bags because such a fee will encourage consumers to use reusable bags rather than bags for which a fee is charged. Furthermore, the Town Board agrees with the Supreme Court of the State of Colorado which in Colo. Union of Taxpayers Found. v City of Aspen, 418 P.3d 506 (Colo. 2018) held that the imposition of a fee for using single-use bags is not a tax; but a fee designed to promote health, safety and welfare.
