Resolved, That the Board of Appeals recommend to the Town Board that the appeal of Stephen Badolato to alter a hotel and restaurant on the east side of Boston Post Road, 125 feet north of Hommock Road within a residence district be granted, and the decision of the Building Commission be reversed. Copies of the letters sent to the appellants are enclosed. Very truly yours, (Sgd.) RICHARD W. HILL Secretary Board of Appeals. Upon motion duly seconded it was RESOLVED that the appeal of Stephen Badolato to alter a hotel and restau- rant on the east side of the Boston Post Road, 125 feet north of Hommock Road, within a residence district, be granted, and the decision of the Building Commission be reversed. A communication from the Weaver Street Fire Company was received and read, offering several recommendations as to the nature of equipment relating to the purchase of a Hook and Ladder apparatus, and also asking for the installation of catch basins in the brooks on Forest and Rockland Avenues and Colonial Park. The communication was ordered received and placed on file, and it was the sense of the Board that the matter pertaining to the Hook and Ladder apparatus be taken up when the same receives considera- tion. The matter relating to the catch basins was referred to the Superintendent of Highways. The following communication was received from the Board of Sewer Commissioners: Larchmont, N.Y. February 26, 1923. Town Board 4 Elm Street, Mamaroneck, N.Y. Gentlemen: We have the honor to hand you herewith petitions signed by a number of residents of Colonial Park, Larchmont Gardens and on Palmer Avenue east of Weaver Street, requesting the annexation to the existing sewer district a territory specified as section C and shown on map dated December 12, 1921 by L. E. Van Etten . We are advised by the Board of Assessors that the assessed valuations within Section C, are as follows: Colonial Park, $188,250. Larchmont Gardens, $1,133,150., and Palmer Avenue $77,000. Making a grand total of $1,398,750.00. The amount of assessed valuation re- quired by law to be represented on this petition would therefore be 51% of this total, or $713,362.00. The signatures on this petition represent a total assessed v aluation in excess of $880,000.00. We approve of this petition and recommend that Section C., as shown on above mentioned map be annexed to existing Sewer Dis- trict Number One. We are enclosing for your information a "Larchmont Gardens Map" by Long and Miller dated August 16th, 1911, and call to your attention that at certain points on the easterly side of Weaver Street and a section of Palmer Lane, the property line does not coincide with the easterly side or line of the highway (note arrows along Weaver Street and Palmer Lane) . It would appear to us that this situation should be corrected before sewers are ever placed in Weaver Street and Palmer Lane , as some difficulty might be en- countered in collecting a front foot assessment. Your usual prompt attention would be greatly appreciated as we are desirous of giving these residents the prompt services which they are entitled to. Very truly yours, BOARD OF SEWER COMMISSIONERS (Sgd. ) ROBERT H. STEVENS, Sec. Chairman.
