ADDED ITEMS Supervisor Seligson stated that the Town is awaiting final information from the State with respect to the Marihuana Law, adding that the Town still needs to address how to engage the public. Additionally, Supervisor Seligson stated that Rich Polcari is working with the Town’s consultant on the 5G legislation. Supervisor Seligson asked the Town Board to consider deferring the adoption of the Amendment to the Sewer Rent Law, as the there is a request from the Winged Foot Golf Club, who will be submitting an appeal for 2019 and 2020 very shortly. Mr. Maker suggested that the adoption proceed, with the additional wording that the law will not go into effect until July 1. This would give ample time for the submission of an appeal. Westchester Joint Water Works (WJWW) Additionally present: Paul Kutzy Manager and David Birdsall Business and Finance Director of the Westchester Joint Water Works. 1 May 19, 2021 Mr. Birdsall and Mr. Kutzy gave a PowerPoint presentation of the proposed Filtration Plant Project, with details of the timeline dating from 1991 through April of 2021. Currently 30% of the project has been designed. The cost is estimated at 108 million dollars, with the Town of Mamaroneck‘s share at 18 million. Once completed, this project would bring Westchester Joint Water Works into compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency. It is anticipated that levied fines will be waived. The SEQRA review is still in process and involves the Planning Board of the Town/Village of Harrison. There was a brief discussion of water rates from New York City, and how that might affect the local water rates. Mr. Birdsall stated that the Ultraviolet Plant, estimated to cost 8 million dollars, will go online in early 2022. Post cards are being mailed to residents, giving them a greater knowledge of this micro site. The UV Plant is a great design, and looks very much like a residential structure. It also dissipates no odor. Discussion – Consultant’s Review of New Residential Construction Additionally Present: Rich Polcari Town Building Inspector In moving forward to review residential house scale and character, the Town’s consultant will need “examples of recent construction or plan approvals that have elicited community concern.” The Town has invited Mr. Polcari this evening to help define these examples. Mr. Polcari suggests the Town specifically review the floor area ratio law, lot coverage and the addition of decks in square footage. Councilwoman Elkind Eney stated that she has two other examples, but is not sure of the addresses. She will follow up and get them. The Town identified the following examples that capture a change in neighborhood character and or negatively affect their neighbors. 1 Briarcliff Road 30 Colonial Avenue 30 Greystone Road 94 Carleon Avenue 251 Murray Avenue 2 Colonial Lane 74 Lansdowne Drive 5 Valley Stream Road 127 E. Garden Road 44 Edgewood Avenue 10 Judson Street Review – NYStretch Code 2020 This item was deferred as the Town was recently notified that the State is updating their draft legislation. Review – Resolution for Energy Benchmarking for Certain Municipal Buildings The Town Board reviewed the prepared resolution. Additionally it was noted that the Energy Benchmarking is being completed for the Town Center, the Hommocks Ice Rink, the Town’s street lights, the Senior Center, the Highway Building and the Fire House. This resolution is on the regular agenda for this evening. New Business The Town Board discussed the recent CDC ruling on mask wearing, and will maintain the requirement for mask wearing in all Town buildings and facilities. It is being suggested that in Mr. Altieri’s consulting role, he will manage the implementation of the Police Reinvention and Reform Plan. Mr. Maker was asked if he had reviewed the legal requirements for installation of monuments, and Mr. Maker stated he found nothing in Municipal law that speaks of that; It would seem that the Town could create its own policy. On motion of Councilwoman Fiddelman, seconded by Councilwoman Elkind Eney, the Town Board requested to enter into a closed session to receive advice of Counsel. ADVICE OF COUNSEL 2 May 19, 2021 CALL TO ORDER - REGULAR MEETING The Regular Meeting of the Town Board was called to order by Supervisor Seligson at 8:00 p.m. Supervisor Seligson noted that the Town Board met for a worksession beginning at five o’clock this evening. SUPERVISOR’S REPORT I’m pleased to report that Coronavirus cases continue to decrease in the Town of Mamaroneck and Westchester County. Currently, the Town has only 5 people with active cases. The CDC and New York State recommendation changes for the wearing of masks this week is an exciting new development. However, there are places and times when people will still be required to wear masks. Please wear a mask if you are uncertain about the requirements or you feel the need to. Unfortunately, the Coronavirus is still with us. I had the pleasure of participating in a press event organized by our new Congressman Jamaal Bowman. Congressman Bowman reached out to his constituent municipalities for community grant applications for federal funding and our application for renovations to the Senior Center was one of the ten he is supporting. It was wonderful to join the representatives from the other selected municipalities and organizations to champion funding for our projects. Next Tuesday night, May 25, the Town Board and the Larchmont Village Board of Trustees will hold a joint work session to discuss the structure of the bi-municipal Garbage Commission. The meeting will be in person and broadcast on LMC Media. Memorial Day ceremonies will be held this year, next week. The Kemper Memorial Park Preservation Fund, American Legion Posts 90 and 347 and VFW David Potts Post 1156 will hold their annual events with some Covid modifications. Please remember the earliest you may put out your garbage, recycling and organic waste for pick up is dusk the night before pickup. There is also a limit of 5 bags or bundles. We continue to move forward with our search for a new Town Administrator and hope to be able to announce a new person in the next few weeks.

Although implicit, the law did not explicitly require the applicant for the P&R Permit to deliver a copy of the survey to homeowners or to the Building Department. This amendment makes that requirement explicit. Section 2 – Amendment of a current section of the Mamaroneck Code: Section 106-58.1 I. of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is repealed and the following substituted in its place: §106-58.1 Duration and hours for pulverizing and removing rock. I. Before work pursuant to a P&R Permit can begin, the applicant shall have a survey done of the condition of all improvements existing on each lot (including lots lying outside the unincorporated area of the Town of Mamaroneck) that either shares all or a section of a lot line with the subject property or touches the subject property at a corner. Such survey must be done by an entity regularly engaged in conducting tests or furnishing inspection services that is approved by the Building Inspector or the Director of Building Code Enforcement and Land Use Administration. If the occupant of a lot to be surveyed refuses to allow a survey to be done, the applicant shall submit an affidavit stating that he/she had attempted to gain access but was denied. Submission of such an affidavit will obviate the requirement for a survey of that lot. Prior to the issuance of the P&R Permit, a copy of the survey shall be given, free of charge, to the occupant of the applicable surveyed lot, and to the Building Department. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a survey shall not be required if all of the rock removal will be done using mechanical means that are designed to be handheld while operating.

Purpose: Pursuant to section 174-D of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck, a sewer user can appeal the sewer rent he/she/it is charged. However, the current law does not contain a time period within which such an appeal must be taken. This amendment solves that problem by requiring an appeal to be taken by no later than March 31 of the year after the year that the sewer rent is imposed. This three-month period after the close of the preceding year affords a sewer user ample time to prepare an appeal.

Mr. Maker explained the law, adding that the effective date is not when received by the Secretary of State, but July 1, 2021. This has been done in order to give time for any potential appeals for previous years, to make their appeal. Supervisor Seligson asked Lindsey Luft, who is staffing the email this evening, if the Town has received any new emails as well as if any viewers had (virtually) raised their hand to speak, and there was not. On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney, seconded by Councilwoman Katz, the Public Hearing was unanimously closed. On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney, seconded by Councilman King, the following Local law was approved: Local Law No. 9 - 2021 This local law shall be known as the “Deadline for Taking a Sewer Rent Appeal” Law. BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck 5 May 19, 2021 Section 1 – Purpose: Pursuant to section 174-D of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck, a sewer user can appeal the sewer rent he/she/it is charged. However, the current law does not contain a time period within which such an appeal must be taken. This amendment solves that problem by requiring an appeal to be taken by no later than March 31 of the year after the year that the sewer rent is imposed. This three-month period after the close of the preceding year affords a sewer user ample time to prepare an appeal. Section 2 – Amendment of a current section of the Mamaroneck Code: Section 174-D of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is repealed and the following substituted in its place: “Any system user who maintains that such system user’s sewer rent should be reduced for any given year may make one application to the Town Board for a reduction in that year's sewer rent. Such application must be in writing, must be made no later than March 31 of the following year, and be supported by evidence that proves either: (1) That the system user's water consumption was less than the water consumption that was used to calculate the system's user's sewer rent for that year; or (2) That the amount of the system user's water consumption that actually was discharged into the sanitary sewer system was less than the amount of water consumption used to calculate the system user's sewer rent. Failure to apply for a reduction in the sewer rent by the last date on which such application can be made is an absolute bar to a reduction in sewer rent for the year at issue.” Section 3 – Severability: Should any provision of this Local Law be declared invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration of unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect any other provisions of this Local Law, which may be implemented without the invalid or unconstitutional provisions.
