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.
Supervisor Seligson noted that the Town Board met for a worksession beginning at 5:00 o’clock this

SUPERVISOR’S SUMMARY REPORT
st
I didn’t give my regular Supervisor’s Report at the last TB meeting on August 21 due to the
large crowd we had for the commuter parking public hearing. I wanted to mention that there
was a TVS (Town, Village, School) meeting in August. The administrators and chief elected
officials of the three municipalities, together with the Superintendents and operations managers
of the two school districts meet quarterly to discuss community-wide updates and issues. I think
it’s important for the community to be aware that we meet regularly to share information and
look for ways to share services and save money. Our next TVS meeting will be in October.
We recently had a ratings call and review by Moody’s Investor Services and I’m proud to say that
the Town maintained its triple a rating, the highest possible rating for a municipality. We are a
well-run, financially strong local government.
We have hired several new police officers this year filling positions for those who retired and we
now have a full complement of 35 police officers.
School is open and that is the best time to remember to drive carefully and slowly in our
community. Please observe all speed limits, new and old crosswalks and drive especially
carefully near all of the schools.
Finally, please remember the use of gasoline powered leaf blowers are prohibited until
th
September 30 in the Town of Mamaroneck.
CITIZEN’S COMMENTS
Supervisor Seligson asked if anyone in the audience would like to address the Board on a topic other than
one of the Public Hearings, and there was not.
PUBLIC HEARING – Commuter Parking Law
The following Notice of Public Hearing is entered into the record as follows:
LEGAL NOTICE – ADJOURNED PUBLIC HEARING
LEGAL NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that pursuant to Section 130 of the Town Law of the State of New
York, and pursuant to a motion of the Mamaroneck Town Board on August 21, 2019, this Public
Hearing will be adjourned until Wednesday, September 4, 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:
“Parking Prohibited on Certain Sides of Certain Streets at Certain Times” law.
Purpose
The Town Board finds that the proliferation of parked cars in the section of Town that lies within
walking distance of the Larchmont Metro-North Train Station has caused congestion on the streets
and hazardous conditions for pedestrians and motorists alike. To establish control and restore
safe conditions to this area of Town, the Town Board enacts this local law that amends the current
law to prohibit parking for one hour of each weekday on each side of each street in this area.

PUBLIC HEARING – Bag Waste Reduction Law
The following Notice of Public Hearing is entered into the record as follows:

September 4, 2019
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
LEGAL NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that pursuant to Section 130 of the Town Law of the State of New
York, and pursuant to a motion by the Town Board on August 21, 2019, this Public Hearing will be
adjourned until Wednesday, September 4, 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.
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.
The full text of this document can be viewed on the website or copies can be obtained at
the Town Clerk's office during regular hours, Mon-Fri, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, In June, July and
August until 4:00 PM at 740 W. Boston Post Road Mamaroneck, NY
PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that at the Public Hearing all persons interested will be given an
opportunity to be heard and that all persons are invited to submit written comments at or prior
thereto.
