1. The meeting was called to order by Mr. Irwin at 8:10 p.m. He
welcomed Arthur Katz , newly appointed to the Committee by the Town
of Mamaroneck. Also welcomed was Mrs. Dibble, who came as an ob-
server representing Mr. Terence Mullen, a neighbor whose letter to
the Committee about flooding in the Pine Brook area had been read
by Mr. Irwin and referred to members concerned with this subject.
2. The minutes of the meetings of July 10 and 17 were approved with
the one correction proposed by Mr. White, adding Mr. Lowy' s name
to the list of those present on July 10.
3. Municipal Government comments on draft Section III (Policies) .
Dr. Lerman reported that members of the Town Council had given
him no comments or proposed changes on the draft of Section III
which had been presented to them on August 1 when Dr. Mason,
Mr. Irwin and Mr. Shuster briefed the Council on the Committee' s
progress.
Mr. Kean noted that Mayor C urnin of Larchmont had written a
- 2 -
Memorandum (copy attached) dated August 14, commenting on several
parts of Section III , and that Trustee James Anderson had made
similar comments orally on some points. Mr. Anderson had also
asked whether the remaining sections of the package to be submitted
to Albany for review would first be distributed to the Village
Board, and has been assured that they would.
The Committee agreed on certain changes or questions to be
looked into, and on other points to be made, in response to Mayor
Curnin' s memorandum, and instructed ,?r. Irwin, in consultation
with Trustee Kean, to respond accordingly ( see attached) .
4. Review of draft Section IV. The Committee proceeded to a
page-by-page discussion o?- the revised draft of Section IV, "Uses
and Projects," using as its basis the annotated draft distributed
just before the July 10 meeting. Discussion was completed on
pages 38 to 42 and the first paragraph on page 43. +Several changes
were agreed on, notably deletion of reference to the commercial
area adjoining East Creek, and rO'vision of the zoning formula
to be applied to the three golf course properties. In the latter
case Mr. Shuster was asked o consult with the Town Attorney,
Nr. Silverberg, concerning the revised language.
Extensive discussion took place on the draft proposal in
the latter half of subparagraph b of Section IV-A-3, calling for
revision of the Village of Larchmont zoning ordinance to permit
new water-dependent clubs in the R-30 district. Several members
spoke in favor of this proposal and several spoke against it.
There being no sign of agreement on the substance of the issue,
the chair proposed that the last two sentences in subparagraph b
be replaced Provisionally by nonnrejudicial words more or less
as follows: "The Village of Larchmont will take such further
action in regard to land use in the R-30 District as may be
appropriate to implement Policies 19 and 21. " This proposal
was agreed to without dissent.
The hour being late, the Committee decided to defer considera-
tion of the remainder of Section IV, and of Section V, until its
next meeting.
5. Next meetings. To expedite completion of drafting, which
is considerably behind schedule , the Committee agreed to hold an
extra meeting on Tuesday, August 28 at 8 p.m. in the Village
Center. The regular September meeting will be held on September
11, also at 8 p.m. in the Village Center. There will be no meeting
of the Committee of Committees during this period.
6. There being no further business, the Committee adjourned
at 10: 35 p.m.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Wallace Irwin
FROM: Mayor Miriam Curnin
RE: CZM Task 3 - Policies
Policy #10 - Do we not monitor now for heavy metals? Does not Bob
Hohberg undertake this via the CAC?
Policy #12A - It would be more appropriate for the CZM to recommend
that the Village dedicate the reservoir property as open space since
the Village is the only agency that can enact such a dedication.
Police #25A - Local prosecution for violation of noise by aircraft
flying over the Village seems almost quixotic. I think the formula
for noise control in FCC or ICC controlled areas should be pursued
(i � through our representatives in Congress.
Policy #39 - I believe illegal dumping in the Flint Park leaf pile
is a relatively small matter. Relocation of the leaf pile may very
well add to Village costs re leaf disposal and those costs must be
considered.
Policy #39A - Let it not appear that the Village has made no effort
to address the litter problem because such is not the case.
1. We do have a Beautification Committee which came into
being specifically to attack the litter problem. It
is a large group and an ongoing one which generally
seeks to attack the problem by rewarding and recogniz-
ing those business establishments which display efforts
leading to clean and attractive business locations, store
fronts, grounds, etc.
2. We do have a tag sale law which prohibits posting of
advertising signs throughout the Village -- a source
of visual pollution.
Wallace Irwin -2- 10/14/84
IC:
3. We do have a sign law that forbids political signs on
private property and sets a timetable for same in store
windows.
4. Through the Joint Sanitation Commission we require and
reinforce frequently that the sanitation men pick up
what they drop, put lids on garbage cans, and the like.
! 5. We allow commercial garbage to be put out on the side-
walk only the morning of pickup.
6. We allow private refuse to be put out only the night
before pickup.
Let's give credit where it is due -- as I know you are most willing
to do.
Thank you.
