Councilman Amlicke stated that he was one-hundred percent behind
fixing up the fields and hoped it would be worked out on a
percentage basis.and that..60-40 seemed:.reasonable .s.inc'e.:many Town
residents use fields.
• Superintendent of Highways, P. Thomas Leddy, mentioned that
soccer fields need work and continuous maintenance, such as
fertilizer, top dressing and seeding.
Kathy Harrington, Chairman of the Larchmont Parks and Trees
Committee, clarified that the plan is like that of last year.
The cost is not extravagant as all fill and work must be attended
to accordingly. She gave specifics about_ the fields in relation
to the safety of all soccer players. She emphasized that the
-4-
173
plan for the Ruth Green Fields (requiring $16,300 with the
Town sharing one-half the cost) is feasible and establishes
a turf, regulates the amount of use and most important,
creates more topsoil with tremendous amounts of seed made
especially for athletic fields. She added that the fields
will close until 1986 and with the new Joint Coordinating
Committee, they hope to schedule work and keep the fields
safe and in good shape. She feels that this plan is
conservative money-wise and added that Village personnel
will do the work.
Councilman Amlicke questioned Mrs. Harrington about who would
have the expertise to supervise the work, to which she responded
that she, Mr. Kellogg and Bob Martin of Cooperative Extension would
do, :thec`.suphrvisiin.g. Mr. Amlicke then requested a written
report which she promised to submit.
Councilwoman Silverstone asked Mrs. Harrington whether or not
the $16,300 would include a work force. Mayor Curnin of
Larchmont Village replied that Mrs. Harrington has volunteers
and that Larchmont is grateful to her and also grateful to
Tom Leddy for all of his help. Mayor Curnin stressed that the
Village is committed to this plan and she strongly believes
that this is the kind of plan we should have and the Village
would appreciate the Town's support and hopes for approval of
their request.
Supervisor Battalia stated that she feels the Board cannot vote
on approval or disapproval of the project but an appropriation
will be put into our budget since it is only fitting that we
carry our burden in this.
Councilwoman Silverstone stated that she endorses the Supervisor's
position and feels that the Town should pay an equal share.
Supervisor Battalia then thanked Mrs. Harrington and Mayor Curnin
for coming on two occasions and for understanding the Town's
position budget-wise.
3. Authorization - Lease Agreement-Town Office Relocation
After an explanation by Administrator Stephen Altieri as per
his June 15th. memorandum, he requested an authorization to enter
into a lease agreement.
Councilman Amlicke queried the time period of construction and
whether there were clauses to terminate the lease early or
extend the lease if construction is delayed.
Supervisor Battalia questioned the cost within the total
estimated overall cost and Councilman Amlicke wanted to know
111 whether there were any estimates on moving costs. Mr. Altieri
replied that these were being worked on now.

It was decided that this be tabled to the next meeting, a
Special Meeting on June 27th.

5. Authorization - Retirement Benefits
Town Administrator, Stephen Altieri, briefly explained the
change which will take place in the current retirement
benefit on January 1, 1985 and the fact that the New York
State Retirement System requires that the Town Board adopt a
resolution prior to June 30, 1984 which confirms to the
retirement system that there will be a change in retirement
plans. The current retirement benefit (Section 75-G) allows
for full retirement benefits at age 55 and minimum service.:
time of 25 years, Section 75-I will allow for full service
retirement benefits at age 55 but with 20 years of service
time. The Town must also provide to the retirement system
before 1985 a down payment for the change reflecting the
difference in costs between Section 75-G and Section 75-I.
This amount is calculated at $18,446. Approximately fifty
employees of the Town will be covered by this plan.
Thereafter, on motion by Councilwoman Silverstone and seconded
by Councilman Amlicke, it was unanimously
RESOLVED, that the Town Board confirms a
change from Section 75-G to Section 75-I
in the New York State Retirement System
plan and authorizes the down payment of
$18,446.00 to reflect the difference in
costs between Section 75-G and Section
75-I. to be paid before June 30, 1984.
6. Planning Board Recommendation - Special Permit Application
Northville Gasoline Station
Councilman Lerman referred to a letter from Phyllis Wittner re
egress on Dillon Road. The Administrator stated that he had
queried both the Police Chief and Building Inspector about
this matter and both agreed that the exit should remain.
After some further discussion, it was decided that the matter
be referred.to_ the.Traffic Committee and that notice of the
® next Traffic Committee meeting be sent to the applicant as well
as notice of a public hearing for which the Board would now
set a date.
Thereafter, on motion by Councilman Lerman, seconded by
Councilman Amlicke, it was unanimously
RESOLVED, that this Board hereby sets
July 11, 1984 as the date for a Public
Hearing on the Special Permit requested
by Northville Gasoline Station for
permission to sell cigarettes and candies
as an accessory use and incidental to the
sale of gasoline and diesel fuel.

THE SUPERVISOR
Reports
The Supervisor reported on:
1) the resignation from Mr. Faillace as Civil Officer.
2) the resignation from Mrs. Mucci as Tenants Council member.
3) the Special Meeting of the Town Board scheduled for June 27th
at 7:15 p.m.
4) the Regular Meeting of the Town Board on July 11th, at which
time the Management Advisory Committee will make a presentation
to the Board and Public.
5) the joint meeting of the Town Board and Recreation Committee
on July 10th at 8:00 p.m.
6) the Maxwell Avenue Transfer Station. She stated that at this
point the Town and County are at a stalemate. it is the opinion .
of the Town Attorney that an environmental impact statement is
required and the consensus of the Town Board based on this
advice, is ha
t t it is required. However, it is the opinion of
the County that no further environmental review is required.
7) the fact that lately a great deal has been in the press about
the State Comptroller's Office and the matter of Repurchase
Agreements. She noted that approximately two months ago the
Town's Comptroller, Administrator and Supervisor met with the
Bank of New York to review our Repurchase Agreements with the
Bank of New York. It was determined at that time, that the
Town dealt solely with the Bank of New York and only purchased
Treasury notes owned by the Bank of New York, and that possession
of instruments was transferred to the Town. No third party
agreement had been entered into by the Town at any time. Despite
the correctness of our investment procedures with respect to
Repurchase Agreements, no funds have been invested in this type
of instrument and all Town funds presently are in Certificates
of Deposit, which have a higher rate of interest at this time.
8) Winged Foot Country Club and the fact that she wished to publicly
commend the outstanding job done by our Police Department in
connection with the U.S. Open. She stated that she not only had
first-hand knowledge of their performance but has received
nothing but praise for the manner in which they conducted
themselves in the most difficult of circumstances. She wished
also to publicly commend the Highway Department on a job well
done on the repeated replacing of signs.
9) the transportation of nuclear waste and noted that there will
be no transportation of this material until after January 1,
1985. In the interim, the State is moving aggressively to
gain control over the transportation of this material. Senator
Stavinsky has introduced legislation which would enhance the
State's role. He is seeking support from all residents and
there are petitions available in her office for those wishing
to support this legislation which is being supported by our
local State legislators.
10) the Coastal Zone Management's survey/questionnaire and encouraged
all to respond.
