LOCAL WATERFRONT REVITALIZATION T?Rfl R M
James Lotto advised that the maps will be in the Village Clerk' s
office for a few more days if anyone wishes to relrie:'J them. He noted
that critical areas in the Village seem to lie in layers . Areas of
particular concern are near the coast and north of the Village.
These areas are not confine' to the 3heldrake.
L. Mason has drafted a proposal on boundaries (Task 3) which
would include all of Larchmont and the Unincorporated area but omit
the part of the To.'n that overlaps the Village of ;?amaroneck. firs .
Kathryn Clarke offered that the Village of Mamaroneck be included
in the Larchmont boundaries if the Committee so desires. Mrs. Curnin
stated that she is in favor of staying within the boundaries of the
Village of Larchmont and Unincorporated area of the Town. Mrs.
Clarke noted that Assemblyman John Perone would be happy to propose
the necessary le Tislat i on if the Committee desires. However, he
encourages cooperation with the communities involved first, which
takes time.
Mary Anne Johnson asked what the criteria are for determining
the boundaries of the fish and wildlife habitats .
Dr. Mason noted that if our boundaries are to include the
watersheds that contribute to serious flooding, as was proposed in
the Village of Mamaroneck, they would extend north to :White Plains.
Mrs. Johnson spoke to Bob Barrett, who offered Fresh Water
Wetlands maps and advised that the Village might have better re-
ception from the State if the boundaries are an area such as 100
feet around a stream.
James Lotto felt that the Committee should not define boundaries
to include critical areas on the basis of political jurisdiction, but
only those that under the State criteria--which could include some
that do not impact the Cound .

The consensus of the Committee was that the boundary proposal
with Task 3 should follow the lines in Dr. Mason' s draft; and that
Dr. Mason should revise his draft to include a fuller .explanation of
the reasons for the proposal.
Mr. :Twin received comments from Mr. Torsey on the Larchmont
Manor Pa'_"k. Discussion was held on dredging in Horseshoe Harbor.
I.:rs • Clarke noted that the County is planning ng other sound 3hore

dredging for the future , and the Village should not exclude itself
from this project by stating that dredging is not necessary in the
harbor. Prs . Fredston advised that there are rocks in the harbor
channels that should be marked .
Discussion vas held on the desirability of additional water-
front facilities in the Village .
On motion of Lawrence Lowy, seconded by James Lotto, and carried,
the last paragraph on Page 29 of the draft was changed to read as
follows :
"if either municipality in the future acquire, or obtain for
use , property on or near the shore other than what they now own,
adaptation of such property for public recreational use would be
desirable Out would require careful weighing of relevant factors
such as public demand , costs , an-, environmental impact."
