PUBLIC HEARINGS - Extension of Sewer District - Stop Sign-Edgewood Avenue and Preston Street - Mechanical Amusement Devices - Amendment to the Freshwater Wetlands Application Extension of Sewer District On motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Chapin, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that the Public Hearing be, and hereby is, declared open. The Town Clerk presented for the record the Affidavit of Publication and Posting of the Notice of Hearing. The Supervisor asked if Council had any comments to which he replied that he had none at the moment. She then called on Mr. William Maker who summarized the purpose of the Public Hearing as that of whether the sewer district could be extended to include the home of Dr. Miclat at 1 Winding Brook Drive. He emphasized the facts that the expense would be to the owner, taxes will be carried by the owner, there is no burden to the Town, the County of Westchester encourages the improvement of sewage treatment and elimination of septics and, finally, that this is a Type II Action and would be exempt from SEQRA Law since it is an extension of a utility as stated in Section D, subparagraph 20. The Supervisor asked if anyone cared to address the Board in favor or opposition to this request and, there being no response, she requested a motion to close the Public Hearing. On motion by Councilman Korn, seconded by Councilwoman Silverstone, the Public Hearing was unanimously declared closed. Thereafter, on motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Chapin, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that this Board hereby III declares the extension of the Town Sewer District to include the home of Dr. and Mrs. M. Miclat of 1 Winding Brook Drive to be a Type II Action; and be it further 3 152 June 29, 1988 RESOLVED, that this Board hereby complies with the request of Dr. and Mrs. Miclat for a sewer connection with all expenses paid by them, and with the restrictions imposed by the Town as per the letter of June 24, 1988 from Town Engineers, Malcolm Pirnie, Inc. , which states that it is necessary to encase the lateral in concrete due to shallow depth and it be connected to the terminal manhole in the 8-inch Fenimore Road sewer opposite Lot 22 of the Fenbrook Subdivision which has sufficient capacity to serve the residence. Stop Sign-Edgewood Avenue and Preston Street On motion by Councilman Chapin, seconded by Councilman Korn, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that the Public Hearing III be, and hereby is, declared open. The Town Clerk presented for the record the Affidavit of Publication and Posting of the Notice of Hearing. ■ The Town Administrator summarized the study made by the Traffic Committee and noted that they recommended placing a Stop Sign on Edgewood Avenue instead of on Preston, which is a steep grade and would make stopping difficult especially during winter months. The Supervisor asked if anyone wished to speak in favor or in opposition. There being no response, the Supervisor asked for a motion to close the Hearing. On motion by Councilman Korn, seconded by Councilwoman Silverstone, the Public Hearing was unanimously declared closed. Thereafter, on motion by Councilman Korn, seconded by Councilman Chapin, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck, by virtue of the authority granted to it, does hereby adopt Local Law 4-1988 to amend Chapter 81 of the Mamaroneck Town Code, to read as follows: (70) At the northeast and southwest corners of Edgewood Avenue at its intersection with Preston Street; and be it further RESOLVED, that this action shall take effect immediately. 4 153 June 29, 1988 Mechanical Amusement Devices On motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Korn, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that the Public Hearing be, and hereby is, declared open. The Town Clerk presented for the record the Affidavit of Publication and Posting of the Notice of Hearing. Town Counsel, Edward Lieberman, explained that in 1981 the Town Board enacted a Mechanical Amusement Device Law which, for some reason, was never incorporated into the Town Code and was the subject of litigation resulting in striking of Subdivisions 9 and 13 of the law by the Appellate Division. He explained further that the two Subdivisions had to do with the grounds by which the Town Board could revoke a license and with a provision dealing with non-conforming devices. He reported that since the earlier law was never codified into the Town Code, it be repealed and replaced by a new law which will specifically become Chapter 47 of the Town Code. He then went on to enumerate the provisions of the new law. A great deal of discussion followed concerning the proposed new law with Mr. Lieberman fielding various questions from the Board. The Supervisor asked if anyone cared to speak in favor of or opposition to the proposed law, to which Mrs. Darra Gordon, President of a local school PTA commented that she was in favor of the proposed law. Mr. Roger Sirlin then spoke concerning the original law which he had dealt with several years earlier and the changes now being made and noted that at that time the trial judge had found two of the fourteen subdivisions of the law unconstitutional with the Appellate Court finding two additional subdivisions unconstitutional. He mentioned that certain sections in this proposed law may warrant a possible review of this decision, especially in relation to Cook' s Restaurant which was established in 1937 and could be exempt under the Grandfather Clause. He also offered his research files from 1981. Town Counsel recommended that the Board adopt the motion for suggested changes and amendments to the proposed law and then further work be done on the law before it is presented for adoption by the Board. Councilman Korn made a motion to change the wording in Section 47-13 , line five, with the insertion of the words "lawfully operated devices" to replace the word "said," and the addition of the phrase "all persons aged fourteen or under are prohibited from being in the arcade area during school hours," which was seconded by Councilwoman Silverstone and unanimously approved. Thereafter, Supervisor Battalia requested a motion to adjourn the Public Hearing to July 20th so that all changes and amendments can be made and a new proposed law be published and presented to the public, such motion made by Councilman Chapin, seconded by Councilwoman Silverstone was unanimously adopted. 5 154 June 29, 1988 Amendment to the Freeshwater Wetlands Application On motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Chapin, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that the Public Hearing be, and hereby is, declared open. The Town Clerk presented for the record the Affidavit of Publication and Posting of the Notice of Hearing. The Town Administrator explained that since a great deal or reorganization has been done within the Building and Engineering Department to consolidate all land-use type applications into that office, the purpose of the amendment is to provide that all Freshwater Wetlands applications for permits be made to the Building Inspector rather than at the office of the Town Clerk. He emphasized that this amendment makes no significant change in intent of the law, but merely changes the Town Department that receives the application. The Supervisor asked if anyone cared to address in favor or opposition, to which there was no response. The Supervisor then asked for a motion to close the Public Hearing, such motion made by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Korn. Thereafter, on motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Chapin, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck, by virtue of the authority granted to it, hereby designates the following amendment to Local Law No.7-1986 entitled Freshwater Wetlands and Water Courses Protection Law: Section 1. 88-6 (A) of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck is hereby amended to read as follows: A. Any person proposing to conduct or cause to be conducted regulated activity upon any controlled area shall file fifteen (15) copies of an application, maps and other supported data required by this Local Law with the Building Inspector. Section 2. 88-6 (B) of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck is hereby amended to read as follows: B. Upon receipt of said application, the Building Inspector shall cause one (1) copy to be filed with the Office of the Clerk and notice of such application with a copy of the application supportive data, to be mailed to all local governments where the proposed activity or any part of it, is located, including the County of Westchester. All additional copies will be immediately trans- mitted to the Secretary of the Planning Board for processing. Section 3. This Local Law shall take effect immediately. 6 155 June 29, 1988 AFFAIRS OF THE TOWN II 1. Appointments - Planning Board - Library Board of Trustees The Supervisor reported that Councilwoman Price was unable to attend the meeting and had asked her to recommend to the Board the appointment of Mr. Jerry Donatelli, a civil engineer, to the Planning Board. On motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Korn, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that this Board hereby appoints Mr. Jerry Donatelli of 23 Bonnie Briar Lane to serve out the unexpired term of Mr. Gaetano Scutaro on the Planning Board. Councilman Chapin gave a brief rundown on the qualifications of Mrs. Jeanne Schwarz and strongly recommended her appointment to the Library Board of Trustees. Councilman Chapin then made a motion for her appointment as well as a motion to extend sincere thanks to Mr. Harry DeMaio for ten years of service on this Board, seconded by Supervisor Battalia, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that Jeanne Schwarz is hereby appointed as a member of the Larchmont Library Board of Trustees, to serve a term of five years, effective July 1988 and terminating on December 31, 1993; and be it further RESOLVED, that this Board hereby extends sincerest thanks and appreciation to Mr. Harry DeMaio for his dedicated years of service to the Community as a Trustee of the Larchmont Board. 2. Resolution - 994 Old White Plains Road The Supervisor asked Mr. Lieberman to give a brief review of the above-mentioned item. Town Counsel explained that last December 21st, New York Hospital notified the Town of its intention to establish a group residence for eleven mentally ill individuals, the Town voted on February 24th to object to the location of the facility at that site, New York Hospital then requested a hearing. He stated that this hearing was held on April 15th in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. , under objection by the Town, at which time the New York State Office of Mental Health overruled the Town' s objection and approved the site. He mentioned also that the administrator of New York Hospital testified that this facility was desirable to service their patient population and County residents would be given 7 156 June 29, 1988 preference for at least 50% of the proposed beds, in exchange for $400 ,000 in capital funding from the Office of Mental Health which, incidentally, was the agency passing on this application. He went on to say that they would admit one County resident on Supplemental Security Income (SSI) of $617.00 per month instead of the $110.00 per day that other residents would be paying. However, he stated, New York Hospital also testified that the priority of 50a would only apply if, at the moment the bed became available, it was a Westchester County resident who had the ability to pay $40,000 a year or $110.00 per day for the bed, and if there was no County resident able to afford that rate on the day the bed became available, New York Hospital would then have the opportunity and ability to give it to someone who did not live in the County. He noted that they also had an "escape clause" which would enable them to buy back the one bed they had promised the OHM for a patient on SSI on a pro-rated basis over ten year period meaning that they could buy back the bed for $100,000 in ten years and no longer be obligated to fill the bed with an SSI patient. Mr. Lieberman concluded that it was therefore the position of the Town, under these circumstances, that this facility does not meet the needs of the Town, or even the County and should not be accorded an immunity from local zoning, a contention also overruled by the Commissioner. At this time, Supervisor Battalia stated that approximately eight years ago the Legislature adopted what is known as the Padavan Law and they determined that it was better for certain disabled populations to live in group homes and be part of the community. She stated also that she wished to go on record as being philosophically in support of that concept since she believes it is appropriate and right. However, she emphasized, this does not mean that every proposal made by an agency is appropriate or good, and the Board has an obligation to review these proposals. The Supervisor reported that her concern with the two present proposals is an administrative and bureaucratic expansion of those laws, self-designed waivers and exemptions of the regulations which were established to go along with that law, most of which were designed to protect those populations. She further added that what she sees in this decision by the commissioner has a new definition of need. . . .and she believes the commissioner has made his own new determination of need. Supervisor Battalia went on to say that she believed also that there are no guarantees in the arrangements the County or State has made with this agency to ensure that 50% of the population of Westchester County would have its needs met by this facility, the needs are very, very great within this community and the needs test could be met within our own population. She emphasized that she believed this is wrong. She reported that Senator Spano has proposed a number of amendments to address these concerns, as has the Building Inspectors Association of the State of New York. The Supervisor concluded that she felt this agency does not wish to see the law clarified or be bound to obey certain laws that every other agency and entity within the State has to obey, including this government and other levels of government. She voted to object to this proposal because she believes that the agencies are writing the laws and that is 8 157 June 29, 1988 not the way government works in the State of New York, nor in II the United States, legislative bodies write the laws and the courts interpret. She then recommended that the Board continue their objections to this proposal and have the courts define, and if this is the ruling of the Court, the State of New York and the Legislature, she would then abide. Councilwoman Silverstone stated that she also believes strongly in the concept of the group home as a good way for the State to handle developmentally disabled and emotionally impaired people. She mentioned that her concern was that this Board has been particularly receptive to the agencies to come up with compromises and in every case it would appear that there is really no room for compromise since the agencies, when they notify you that they are interested in a particular home, have already made up their minds that they are going to have it, and all of the hearings are a sham. She added there is really no point to all that takes place between the original notice and the taking of a home since they do not listen to what is being said. Councilman Chapin clarified that on the proposal for the home on Moran Place, they proposed placing eleven people and it was objected to on the basis of overcrowding, not on the basis that there is not a need, since the Board believes there is a need for that home and others in the County. He felt, however, that the Old White Plains Road home was not meeting the needs of the community which, most broadly defined, is the County of Westchester. Thereafter, on motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Chapin, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that this Board hereby directs the Town Counsel to prepare a further appeal of the proposal for the group home at 994 Old White Plains Road, Mamaroneck, New York. 3. Item #3 entitled Request for Authorization - Town of Mamaroneck/Village of Larchmont Coastal Zone Management Program Agreement, was removed from the Agenda. II4. Report on Year of the Family - Request for Appropriation Councilwoman Silverstone explained that some months ago the thought about celebrating the Year of the Family was begun and, coincidentally, the Community Counseling Center in Mamaroneck was also thinking along the same terms. She reported that representatives from the Rye Neck Schools, the Mamaroneck Schools, the Village of Mamaroneck, the Village of Larchmont and the Town held a number of meetings and worked 9 158 June 29, 1988 out a broad plan for making 1989 the Year of the Family in the entire Larchmont/Mamaroneck Community, including Rye Neck. She further explained that the decision has been to appoint a paid executive director for this project, and to seek grant money from outside sources which, past experience shows , cannot be accomplished unless you show good faith by putting up some of your own money. Councilwoman Silverstone stated that they are asking each of the entities on the committee to put up a small amount of seed money for this year-long project and requested $1,000.00 from the Town to get started. Councilwoman Silverstone then fielded question from the Board after which, on motion by Councilman Korn, seconded by Councilman Chapin, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that this Board hereby endorses the celebration in 1989 of The Year of the Family and authorizes $1,000 ,00 toward its planning. 5. Referral to the Planning Board - a) Request for Rezoning Byron Place b) Golf Courses Rezoning proposals The Supervisor cited a request for rezoning from property owners on Byron Place and on motion by Councilwoman Silverstone, seconded by Councilman Korn, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that this Board hereby refers the rezoning of a parcel of land located on Byron Place to the Planning Board for its evaluation and consideration. The Supervisor noted that because of changes in the proposal of rezoning of the Golf Course, this item has been deferred to the Town Board meeting of July 20th. 6. Drug Prescription Allowance - School Crossing Guards The Town Administrator briefly explained the proposal to create a prescription allowance for 1988 in the sum of $200 since surrounding communities provide medical insurance and benefits not provided to the Town school crossing guards and, obviously, it would be wise to continue to attract guards of high quality. Thereafter, on motion by Councilman Chapin, seconded by Councilwoman Silverstone, it was unanimously 10 159 June 29, 1988 RESOLVED, that this Board hereby authorizes payment of $200.00 per school crossing guard as the amount toward a prescription allowance for 1988, to be paid in one lump sum and paid by claim form to the employees. 7. Item #7 entitled Request for Resolution of Support-New York State Law Enforcement Accreditation Program was heldover until the Police Commissioner had compiled further information. 8 . Salary Authorizations - Conservation - Highway - Junior Office Clerk - Recreation - Police Department The Administrator outlined the requests for authorization and fielded several question from the Board particularly concerning the salary payments for volleyball instruction. Thereafter, on motion by Councilman Chapin, seconded by Councilwoman Silverstone, it was unanimously RESOLVED, that as provided for in the 1988 Town Budget, authority is hereby granted for payment of salary to the following: James Amlicke, summer Conservation Laborer, $5/hr. effective 7/5/88; Natalie Hirsch, summer Conservation Laborer, $4.50/hr. effective 7/5/88; Kirsten Trueman, summer Conservation Laborer, $5/hr. effective 7/5/88; Mary P.

WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS There were no written communications to come before the Board at this time.

She then went on to speak about the problem of faulty incinerators at 14 North Chatsworth and presented a letter. She mentioned that she had spoken to Mr. Robert Wasp at the Health Department and a somewhat lengthy discussion ensued, after which time the Supervisor asked the Town Counsel to check into the law relating to "outlawing" of incinerators and to write a letter to Dr. Curran for a 90-day cessation of incinerator burning. Another resident also voiced her concerns on the matter and was reassured by Councilman Chapin that Town Counsel would research this situation.
