The basketball hoop is installed illegally as no structures or other constructions are allowed to be placed within the Towns rights of way without the express permission of the Town of Mamaroneck. This situation raises the question of what the Town's policy should be when a resident wishes to install items within the Town's right of way. There have been cases where the Town has entered into license agreements with a property owner allowing the property owner to use the Town right of way. In those cases the Town reserves the right to take back the land and the property owner is required to provide a hold harmless agreement and insurance protecting the Town of Mamaroneck. In other circumstances the Town has actually sold a portion of the right of way to the adjacent property owner, thereby relieving the Town, of liability. As a general proposition, the Town does have liability for damages incurred as a result of structures within the right of way. For example, several years back, the Town was found liable for damage to a vehicle caused by large stones placed in the right of way by an adjacent property owner. An automobile slid off the roadway and was damaged by the stones. The Town normally prohibits the installation of structures or any other construction within a right of way. The illegal installation of the basketball hoop on Glen Lane again raises this issue of how to address the use of the Town's rights of way by private property owners. / t` Stephen V.

Over the years there have been discussions about the level of service and whether there are alternatives available to lower costs without major adjustments to the service provided. One year ago, the Commission initiated a food waste recycling program that requires residents to bring their food waste to the Maxwell Avenue Recycling Center. The program has been successful, as we have collected approximately 54 tons of food waste in the last year. As a result, there has been consideration to expand the current sanitation services to include the collection of food waste. This report provides background and analysis on the current level of service and considers several service alternatives that can either reduce expenses or provide for expanded service for food waste collection. Background Information & Statistics The Commission provides services to the unincorporated Town of Mamaroneck and Village of Larchmont. • Collection services include: o Twice per week garbage/trash collection. Single family home collection service is provided at the side or rear of the home. o Once per week recycling collection at the curb o Bulk trash Is collected on the second collection day at the curb o Between April 1 and October 30 the Commission provides once per week organic collection at the curb. • Number of Collection Routes: o 5 Monday-Thursday routes o 5 Tuesday-Friday routes. o One Saturday route made up of two employees for the collection of street cans in the Village business area. Sanitation Service Analysis I Stephen Altieri _ I • Number of Collection Points: o Total Service Area Covered: 6.5 square miles o 4,571 single family homes-3,001 in the unincorporated Town and 1,570 in the Village of Larchmont o 135 Commercial, Institutional, and Apartment collection stops. This includes four public schools, two private schools, all religious institutions. These collection points include the collection of 246 garbage/recycling dumpsters and 141 barrels of various sizes ranging from 35 to 96 gallons. In addition the Commission collects approximately 45 street cans each day. o Average number of collection points per route- 450 to 500 • Material Collection in 2017- Total Material collected or processed-17,100 tons o Disposed Waste- 7,923 tons o Costs to dispose of garbage in 2017- $220,000 o Recycled Waste- 9,177 tons o Costs to dispose of Recycling - $0 • Staffing for Collection Operations o 1 General Foremen o 1 Deputy General Foreman/Tractor Trailer Driver o 20 Full time Collection personnel (four employees per route) o 5-6 part time personnel that work on an as needed basis • Transfer and Disposal Operations o All disposed waste is transported in individual garbage trucks to the Westchester County Transfer Station in Mt. Vernon (Round trip- 12 miles) o All newspaper and cardboard collected is also transported in garbage trucks to the Mt. Vernon Station o Commingled containers are transferred at Maxwell Avenue from individual garbage trucks into transport trailers hauled by Westchester County o Organic Waste is transported to Port Chester (Round trip- 12 miles) in either individual garbage trucks or transport trailers. • Recycling Center o The Commission operates the Maxwell Avenue Recycling Center for residents to dispose of garbage, trash, all forms of recycling including E-Waste and most recently food waste. In addition the Center includes a trailer for the collection of used furniture as a participant in a program with the Furniture Share House o The Center operates from 8:OOam-3:OOpm Mon., Tues. Thursday and Friday. It Is also open on Saturdays from 8:00am until 11:45am. 2IPage Sanitation Service Analysis I Stephen Altieri • Average Cost Per Household o For the sanitation services provided by the Commission a home with an average assessment of $1.25million pays $606 per year in property taxes or about $50 per month based upon the Town's 2018 Budget. Alternative Collection Methods In this section of the report, several alternative collection methods are presented. The question to be considered is whether the goal of the Commission is to reduce operating costs through or whether the alternative collection methods would permit the expansion of collection service to include food waste. Collecting an additional waste material will invariably increase the Commissions operating costs. Labor costs are our single greatest expense. The alternatives presented would in some cases permit the Commission to collect food waste using the present compliment of full time staff although additional part time staff may be necessary. In other cases labor costs do increase more significantly. A. Collection of Food Waste Utilizing Existing Personnel on Overtime One of the biggest variables in evaluating the collection of food waste is the number of households that would participate. This is important in establishing the most cost efficient and effective method of collection. Therefore this alternative is presented since it has virtually no impact upon the current level and type of sanitation services now provided to the Town and Village residents. Utilizing overtime could be an interim measure to evaluate whether the program will grow over time thus requiring a more significant change to our sanitation services. If the number of participating households grows significantly, this alternative will likely no longer be feasible and one of the other alternatives presented will have to be considered. If however the program does not grow or participation decreases, costs can be rolled back with no impact upon service. For purposes of costing out this alternative the assumption is that approximately 1,000 households will participate in the program. This is equal to about 22% of total single family homes in the Town and the Village. One thousand is also the number of households currently participating in the Scarsdale Food Waste collection program. This alternative uses existing route personnel that would follow the normal Monday and Tuesday garbage collection program. Once all of the garbage has been collected three employees would be retained on an overtime basis to collect food waste. Again, assuming 1,000 participating households, the task would be divided into 500 collections each day. The assumption is that to collect 500 households each day would take three hours for a crew of three. 31Page Sanitation Service Analysis I Stephen Altieri , Cost: Overtime rate for a Driver (including benefits) = $58.70/hr.1 Overtime rate for a Sanitation Man (including benefits) = $56.44/hr Assuming three hours per day- Total per diem costs $514.74 Assuming 104 days of collection- $514.74 X 104= $53,532.96 per year in additional overtime expenses. The other cost which must be added to all food waste collection alternatives is the increased cost for disposal. Later in this report, the estimated additional disposal costs have been calculated. B. Convert Residential Garbage Collection from Backdoor to Curbside This alternative provides for every single family home to bring their garbage to the end of their driveway at the curb. With curbside collection, the current four man crews could permanently be reduced to three men. Allowing for vacation time coverage the Commission could reduce the total collection staff from 20 to 17. Total savings for the Commission would be approximately $268,000. The savings is based upon the annual salary for a sanitation man of $63,8102 plus 40% or $25,524 in benefit costs. The curbside garbage collection alternative can also be applied to initiating residential collection of food waste. With the curbside garbage collection alternative, the additional personnel generated from the reduction of the four man crews would be assigned to the collection of food waste. Under this alternative food waste would be collected on Mondays and Tuesdays for those households that sign up for the program. The additional personnel would then be reassigned to recycling and organic waste collection Wednesdays through Fridays. This alternative would likely lead to a significant reduction in part time personnel costs. A potential savings of $30,000 to $40,000 is possible. Therefore total potential savings is just over $300,000. If backdoor collection of garbage is left unchanged, and food waste collection is initiated additional personnel would be needed for this task. We have estimated three full time personnel to be added to the commission staff at an initial estimated cost of $190,000 for starting salaries and benefits. Over seven years however the cost of the personnel would rise as employees move up In the salary scale. C. Move to Once A Week Garbage Collection for Single Family Homes Under this alternative food waste would be collected on Mondays and Tuesdays. The second collection day (Thursday and Friday) would be dedicated to the collection of other household garbage and bulk rubbish. 1 Hourly rates based upon 2019 salaries as per the collective bargaining agreement. 2 2019 annual salary for a sanitation man 41 Page Sanitation Service Analysis J Stephen Altieri This alternative requires no change in personnel or in the basic garbage collection schedule. Recycling would continue to be collected on Wednesdays and organics Thursday and Friday. However during holiday weeks, since garbage is only being collected once per week recycling collection would be suspended. This would insure that all residential collection stops receive one regular garbage collection per week. So for instance, in a week with a Monday holiday; Monday garbage/food waste would be collected on Tuesday and Tuesday garbage/food waste on Wednesday. Once per week garbage collection can be instituted for single family homes however it will not work for our commercial and institutional collection stops. There is insufficient space in the various dumpster areas to store one week's garbage. The Commission would establish a commercial/Institutional collection route to maintain twice a week garbage collection for commercial and institutional collection stops. With this proposal the existing complement of employees would remain unchanged. D. Adjustment of the Recycling Collection Schedule Currently the Commission collects both paper/cardboard and commingled containers each Wednesday. As an alternative the recycling collection schedule would be revised to collect only one material each week. Week 1 would be the collection of paper/cardboard, week 2 the collection of commingled containers and that pattern would continue for the entire year. Under this alternative since the Commission is only collecting one material each Wednesday, food waste would be added to the workload. The garbage collection and organic waste collection schedule would remain unchanged. This alternative is personnel neutral, meaning there would be no reduction or addition to current staffing. Some communities collect recycling using this method. There are concerns however that residents will not remember which week is for which material which could lead to a decrease in total recycling. This schedule can also be difficult to follow during holiday weeks. To address this potential problem additional publicity would be required to remind residents of which material is being collected in a given week. Evaluating the total cost of Initiating a Food Waste Collection Program In this report alternatives have been presented for adjusting the existing services to accommodate food waste collection. The alternatives have centered on the impact upon labor costs. There are however other costs to be considered for food waste collection. SIPage Sanitation Service Analysis I Stephen Alfieri , 1. Disposal The tipping fee for garbage in the Westchester County System is currently $28.303 per ton. Currently, the Village of Scarsdale is charged $70.004 per ton to dispose of food waste, a difference of $41.70 per ton. For the period June through September the Village of Scarsdale collected 57.5 tons of food waste or an average of 14.4 tons per month. Annualized this equates to 172.8 tons. 172.8 tons disposed as garbage @ $28.30/ton = $4,890 172.8 tons disposed as food waste @ $70.00/ton = $12,096 The net impact is an increase in costs of $7,206 on just 172.8 tons of food waste. Should participation grow the increase in costs is more substantial. Right now Suburban Carting is the only feasible alternative to accept food waste since it can be delivered to their facility in Mamaroneck Village. The material is then transported by Suburban Carting to the Ulster County food waste facility. Another firm, Sustained Materials Management has received approval from the DEC and the Town of Cortland to open a facility in Cortland to accept food waste. The facility has been approved to accept up to 5,000 yards of material per year. As of today they have yet to set their disposal fee and not indicated whether hauling services will be available. Vehicle Costs Depending upon the alternative selected to collect food waste there could be additional fuel and vehicle operating costs. At this point an estimate has not been established. Conclusions If the food waste program is initiated using Alternative A which relies on the use of overtime, the estimated total cost including tipping fees is $60,740 per year using the assumptions made for the number of participating households and tonnage collected. If the Commission were to consider collecting food waste under Alternative B which is based upon curbside garbage collection for all households the additional costs is approximately $7,200 again based upon the assumptions made for the number of participating households and tonnage collected. 'Westchester County tipping fee for 2018 Tipping fee charged by Suburban Carting to the Village of Scarsdale 6IPage Sanitation Service Analysis I Stephen Altieri If the Commission were to consider collecting food waste and leave backdoor garbage collection in place the Increased costs are closer to $200,000 in year one. This includes the costs for new personnel and additional disposal costs. If the Commission were to consider Alternatives C or D, our additional costs would be for disposal. There would be no additional personnel costs. At this point this report has been prepared for discussion with the Commissioners to consider changes to sanitation services and/or instituting a food waste collection program. Stephen V.

Boston Post Road, Mamaroneck, New York to consider the 2019 Sewer Rent Rate. Section 1—Purpose. Article 14-F of the General Municipal Law authorizes the imposition of sewer rents as a means of raising funds(a)to operate, maintain and repair a municipal sanitary sewer system, and (b)where not prohibited by General Municipal Law§453 (3),to expand such system. The rents will be used to operate, maintain and repair that sewer system and if deemed appropriate by the Town Board and not prohibited by General Municipal Law§453 (3),to expand such system. The Town Board finds that a sewer rent more equitably distributes the cost of the sanitary sewer system because it is a function of usage computed based upon water consumption and is charged to all the users of that system, including tax exempt properties. PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that at the Public Hearing all persons interested will be given an opportunity to be heard and that all persons are invited to submit written comments at or prior thereto.

Section 174-3 of the legislation requires that the Town Board annually set the sewer rent rate per gallon based upon water consumption. The rate is calculated by dividing the revenue required to operate the sanitary sewer system by the adjusted water consumption of all system users. A public hearing must be held by the Town Board to consider the sewer rent rate. There are 3,200 billed water accounts in the unincorporated Town. There are an estimated 87 properties in the unincorporated area that utilize septic systems and therefore not connected to the sewer system. Below is a listing of water sales in the unincorporated area for the last three full years: ❖ 2017 Actual 470,000,000 gallons • 2016 Actual 485,000,000 gallons ❖ 2015 Actual 514,000,000 gallons Three year average water sales- 489,666,666 gallons Average annual water use for a residential property is 112,500 gallons. This is the average of annual water use with and without irrigation. Based upon 87 properties not being connected to the sanitary sewer system and an average water consumption of 112,500 gallons; 9,787,500 gallons of water is deducted from the average water sales for purposes of the calculation of the sewer rent. Also, the law provides that the sewer rent to be charged be based upon 90% of the actual water consumed. Therefore for rate calculation purposes the adjusted annual water sold is determined as follows: Three year average water sales 489,666,666 gallons Deduction for properties not connected to the sanitary sewer system 9,787,500 gallons Subtotal 479,879,166 gallons Allowance for 90% of actual average water consumption 47,987916 gallons Adjusted water sales for rate calculation 431,891,250 gallons 1iPage tot Printed on Recycled Paper to The Sewer District Budget for 2019 is $474,231. Therefore the rate calculation is: $474,231/431,891,250 =$.0011/gallon, an increase of $.00044/gallon over 2018. For an average residential consumer of water using 112,500 gallons a year the property owner will be billed for 90% of the consumption or 101,250 gallons. As a result the average annual sewer rent for 2019 will be $111.37 an increase of $44.55 over 2018. For a point of comparison, a home with an average assessment of $1,253,000 would have incurred a property tax bill of $137.83 for Sewer District expenses in 2019 had the ad valorem tax been applied. So although the increase in the fee is larger than in previous years, the fee is still less than the calculated property tax. Also, by using the fee the property owner has the ability to control the expense through water conservation. In the presentation of the 2019 Tentative Budget it was pointed out that the Sewer District expense increase was entirely the result of the additional debt service in the district budget. The Town along with other communities in the County Sewer District is mandated to complete repairs and rehabilitate their sanitary sewer systems. The debt expense in the Sewer District will increase from $93,194 to $275,413 in 2019 as a result of the $2.7million in bonds issued for the mandated sewer project. Stephen V.

Boston Post Road, Mamaroneck, New York to consider: "Exemption from the Sewer Rent for Separately Metered Water that is not Discharged into the Sanitary Sewer System" Law. Purpose The sewer rent law is intended to levy charges for sanitary sewer service based upon a property's discharge of sewage into the sanitary sewer system. The sewer rent law calls owners of real property that discharge sewage into the sanitary sewer system "System Users". The owners of real property whose sewage is not discharged into the sanitary sewer system (e.g. properties served by septic system) are not "System Users" since the discharge therefrom does not enter the sanitary sewer system. Hence these owners are not subject to a sewer rent. There are properties that do both. Certain consumers of water,such as golf courses, have facilities, such as clubhouses and locker rooms that discharge sewage into the sanitary sewer system but also consume water that is not returned as sewage to the sanitary sewer system, such as water used to irrigate fairways or fill water hazards. This local law takes that distinction into consideration by establishing a dichotomy between facilities that do discharge sewage into the sanitary system and facilities that do not by imposing sewer rent upon the former and exempting the latter from sewer rent.

BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck Section 1—Purpose: The sewer rent law is intended to levy charges for sanitary sewer service based upon a property's discharge of sewage into the sanitary sewer system.

This local law takes that distinction into consideration by establishing a dichotomy between facilities that do discharge sewage into the sanitary system and facilities that do not by imposing sewer rent upon the former and exempting the latter from sewer rent. This local law also improves the definition of two of the terms used in the sewer rent law. Section 2—Repeal and replacement of a current section of the Mamaroneck Code: Section 174-1 of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is repealed and the following substituted in its place: §174-1 Legislative Intent. The Town Board finds that it is in the public interest to raise funds to operate, maintain and repair the sanitary sewer system and, if deemed appropriate by the Town Board and not prohibited by General Municipal Law §453(3), to expand such system through a sewer rent rather than by taxation because a sewer rent more equitably distributes the cost since it is a function of usage computed based upon water consumption and is charged to all the users of the sanitary sewer system,including tax-exempt properties. The sewer rent law is intended to levy charges for sanitary sewer service based upon a property's discharge of sewage into the sanitary sewer system. The sewer rent law calls owners of real property that discharge sewage into the sanitary sewer system "System Users". The owners of real propertywhose sewage is not discharged into the sanitarysewer system (e.g. properties served by septic systems) are not "System Users" since the discharge therefrom does not enter the sanitary sewer system.

Certain consumers of water,such as golf courses,have facilities, such as clubhouses and locker rooms, that discharge sewage into the sanitary sewer system but also consume water that is not returned as sewage to the sanitary sewer system, such as water used to irrigate fairways or fill water hazards. This law takes that distinction into consideration by imposing sewer rent for the facilities that do discharge sewage into the sanitary system and exempting from sewer rent the facilities that do not discharge sewage into the sanitary system. Section 3-Amendment of a current section of the Mamaroneck Code: Section 174-3 of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is amended by adding the following new subsection F. F. If a system user has installed water meters that exclusively measure the volume of water being used for activities that do not result in sewage being discharged into the sanitary sewer system, the system user shall not be subject to sewer rent based upon the volume of water measured by such meters. To be eligible for this exemption, a system user must demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Town Engineer (or other designated town official) that the water measured by such water meters is being used solely for activities that do not result in sewage being discharged into the sanitary sewer system. The exemption shall last for three years but can be renewed for additional three year periods if on or before the date on which the then current exemption expires, the sewer user demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Town Engineer (or other designated town official) that the water measured by such water meters is still being used solely for activities that do not result in sewage being discharged into the sanitary sewer system. The Town Engineer (or other designated town official) shall maintain a record of the date on which each exemption is granted or renewed. The failure of a system user that has been granted an exemption to renew that exemption prior to its expiration date shall subject that user to a sewer rent for the water consumed between the expiration date and the date upon which a renewal is granted even though had the exemption been renewed prior to its expiration date, the system user would not have been subject to a sewer rent for the consumption of such water. The failure of the Town Engineer (or other designated town official) to maintain a record of the date on which an exemption is granted or renewed shall not be a defense to the imposition of a sewer rent under the circumstances described in the preceding sentence.
