(Sections II and III had been seen earlier by the municipal governments, and some minor changes in Section III had been made in response to comments by Mayor Curnin and Trustee Anderson; these changes have been circulated to Committee members. ) The Larchmont Village Board considered our recommendation at its September 17 meeting, at which I represented the Committee. An objec- tion was raised by Trustee Anderson, who argued that the proposed r ® Commission (Section V, "Management Structure") would have too much power in regard to the affairs of the Village, especially as to re- creation and public access along, the waterfront. The Board decided not to Press the matter to a decision until its October 1 meeting. Meanwhi'e I was asked to try to work out a solution acceptable both to Mr. Anderson and to the Committee and the other parties involved in both municipal governments. After a series L.Y discussions with Mr. Anderson, Mayor Curnin, Trustee Kean, Co-Chairman Shirley Tolley and Councilman Lerman, among others, a tentative formula emerged which I delivered to to the par- ticipating members of the Committee, and to both municipal governments, in my memorandum dated September 20. The gist of the change, you will recall, was to provide that where a matter before the Commission is in disagreement in the government-level Joint Coastal Zone Committee, the Commission will not act on that matter until the issue is resolved. In my September 20 memorandum I proposed that any Committee member who objects to the proposed change should so inform me by noon Monday, September 24; the Committee could then meet, if necessary, on September 25 to discuss the objection. The deadline has passed, no objection has been raised, and it will not be necessary for the Committee to meet on this question. I am informed by Mayor Curnin and Dr. Lerman that procedures are being worked out in the Village and Town governments to expedite agreement to the new language and clear the way for forwarding Sections I to V to Albany. I would like to thank not only the officials mentioned above but Salso several Committee colleagues, especially Co-Chairman Shirley Tolley, for their good advice and encouragement in pursuing.- this solution, which will enable us to move forward with our planning.
