1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Town of Mamaroneck has received public complaints of unsafe conditions for motorists and
pedestrians at two separate intersections within the Town. The Town retained Barton &
Loguidice, D.P.C. (B&L) to conduct a turning movement traffic study to investigate turning
movement options for the intersection of Myrtle Boulevard at North Chatsworth Avenue and to
investigate pedestrian movements and potential safety improvements at the intersection of New
Jefferson Street and North Chatsworth Avenue.
Intersection of Myrtle Boulevard at North Chatsworth Avenue
At the intersection of Myrtle Boulevard and North Chatsworth Avenue the origins of the issues
appear to be as follows:
Traffic congestion for right turning and through movement vehicles.
Conflict point across the intersection with lane shift.
Conflict point with lane shift and left turns at Murray Avenue.
Potential to limits left turns to North Chatsworth Avenue from Myrtle Boulevard
northbound.
The Town is looking to collect data involving turning movements and driver behavior at this
intersection for use in a potential traffic operations revision.
Intersection of New Jefferson Street at North Chatsworth Avenue
At the intersection of New Jefferson Street and North Chatsworth Avenue there are safety
concerns regarding the movement of pedestrians and motor vehicles. Origins of the issues
appear to be as follows:
Vehicles traveling at higher rates of speed toward the intersection.
Parking allowed to the very end of the median, restricting visibility of left turn drivers
attempting to turn left from New Jefferson Street onto North Chatsworth Avenue
westbound.
Vehicles stopping in the crosswalk, specifically when attempting to make a left turn
from New Jefferson Street.
Sight distance obstructions such as man-made barriers and shrubbery.
Pedestrians walking in the direction of North Chatsworth Avenue, toward New Jefferson
Street, are obstructed from view of the vehicles on New Jefferson Street.

2.0 TRAFFIC DATA AND INITIAL PUBLIC COMMENT
2.1.Existing Traffic Volumes
Intersection turning movement data was collected with B&L’s traffic cameras for a 24-hour period
starting on Wednesday, May 12, 2021 and ending on Thursday, May 13, 2021. The data was
processed to determine weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic counts. Refer to Attachment A of
this study for existing traffic flow diagrams and data.
Based on all of the data collected, the morning and evening peak hours were found to be 7:45 AM
to 8:45 AM and 4:45 PM to 5:45 PM, respectively. Traffic during these time periods is typically
commuter traffic utilizing the roadways to travel to destinations beyond the project limits. The
traffic types include local traffic commuting to and from work, school and transit buses, delivery
trucks, emergency vehicles, and Town DPW trucks. The PM peak hour had the larger volume of
traffic.

2.2.Future no-build design year traffic volume forecasts
Forecasted traffic volumes were derived for the estimated time of completion (ETC) of the project
(2022) and the ETC+10 design year (2032). These are industry standards and consistent with the
NYSDOT Highway Design Manual for minor intersection reconstruction projects.
The forecasted traffic volumes are based on a traffic growth rate of 0.5%/year. This rate was
advised by the Hudson Valley Region (Region 8) New York State Department of Transportation
(NYSDOT) traffic and safety division. This 0.5%/year growth rate was applied each year in order
to determine the ETC and ETC+10 future traffic data.
2.3.Level of Service and Mobility
2.3.1.Existing level of service and capacity analysis
The existing levels of service (LOS) for the project intersections were calculated using
procedures described in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2016 and analyzed using
Synchro Software, version 11. The existing LOS and delay times is tabulated in Figure
2.3.1.

Figure 2.3.1 – Weekday PM Peak Hour Levels of Service
2.3.2.Future no-build design year level of service
The ETC + 10 (2032) no-build LOS and delays were calculated for the project
intersections using the projected weekday peak hour traffic volumes. Peak hour LOS are
tabulated below in Figure 2.3.2.
Figure 2.3.2 – Weekday ETC+10 PM (No Build) Peak Hour Levels of Service
Brief Summary of LOS Analysis: The LOS and delay time for vehicles at the intersection
of Myrtle Boulevard and North Chatsworth Avenue was generally worse in the PM peak
hour as compared to the AM peak hour and have been shown in the above figures.
Overall, the existing intersection operates at a LOS of E and also in the future (ETC+10)
which is considered unstable flow with intolerable delay. Additionally, for the existing
no build model:

2.3.3.Queue Length
The queue length for Myrtle Boulevard northbound was determined as part of the LOS
analysis. The existing and ETC+10 queue lengths for this approach were determined to
be 95 ft. and 102 ft., respectively. In the existing condition, there is approximately 125
ft. between Chatsworth Avenue and the Town’s parking garage driveway.

3.0 CONCEPT DESIGNS
3.1.Myrtle Boulevard and North Chatsworth Avenue
3.1.1.Concept Alternative #1a –Left/Thru Lane Conversion
For this concept alternative the existing leftmost thru travel lane for the Myrtle Boulevard
northbound approach would be converted into a left turn only lane. The existing
thru/right turn lane for the Myrtle Boulevard northbound approach would remain as is.
Vehicles that would normally utilize the leftmost travel lane to travel north of North
Chatsworth Avenue would be restricted to only the right most travel lane. The existing
left turn time restriction from the Myrtle Boulevard northbound approach to North
Chatsworth Avenue westbound (no left 7AM-9AM & 5PM-7PM, Mon.-Fri.) would remain
in place. Existing pavement striping for this left turn travel lane would be reconfigured to
show an appropriate configuration in accordance with the Federal MUTCD, the NYS
Supplement to the MUTCD, and the NYSDOT Highway Design Manual.
Figure 3.1.1 – Concept Alternative #1a
Concept Alternative #1a is not recommended for further consideration due to the volume
of existing right turning traffic (Myrtle Boulevard to Chatsworth Avenue eastbound)
compared to the thru movement (Myrtle Boulevard northbound) which has a 60/40 AM
and 55/45 PM split (more vehicles make right turns than travel north through the
Page 14 of 87
Town of Mamaroneck Feasibility Study
9
intersection during the peak hours). Additionally, public comments received as part of
this investigation have described existing traffic congestion issues for this right turn
movement that have resulted in right turning traffic being restricted by northbound thru
movement traffic. Consolidating Myrtle Boulevard northbound thru and right turn
movement traffic into one travel lane, while providing a dedicated left turn lane with a
time restriction will only further degrade the intersection efficiency which already has LOS
F for this northbound approach.
3.1.2.Concept Alternative #2a –Remove Left-Turn Lane Time Restriction and add 5-
Section Signal Head, Dedicated Right-Turn Lane Conversion
For this concept alternative the existing left turn movement time restriction for the Myrtle
Boulevard northbound approach would be removed and the left turn movement would
coincide with the existing protected left turn movement for the Myrtle Boulevard
southbound approach. Additionally, a new 5-section signal head would be added to the
existing spanwire, which is consistent with existing equipment currently on the spanwire,
to allow protected left turn movements from the Myrtle Boulevard northbound approach
to North Chatsworth westbound. The existing thru/right travel lane would be
reconfigured to be a right only travel lane. Additionally, as part of this alternative, left
turn maneuvers from New Jefferson Street to North Chatsworth Avenue westbound
would be restricted to reduce the amount of New Jefferson Street cut-through traffic
passing from Madison Avenue to North Chatsworth Avenue. This left turn restriction
would direct more traffic to the Myrtle Boulevard/North Chatsworth Avenue intersection.
Existing pavement striping arrows, text, and signage would be reconfigured in accordance
with the Federal MUTCD, the NYS Supplement to the MUTCD, and the NYSDOT Highway
Design Manual.
Page 15 of 87
Town of Mamaroneck Feasibility Study
10
Figure 3.1.2 – Concept Alternative #2a
Concept Alternative #2a is not recommended for further consideration due to the
increase in traffic volume that would enter the Myrtle Boulevard/North Chatsworth
Avenue intersection, which already has a LOS F for the Myrtle Boulevard northbound
approach. Additionally, the residents of the neighborhood who utilize New Jefferson
Street would be negatively impacted as a result of the no left turn restriction.
3.1.3.Concept Alternative #3a –Maintain Left-Turn Lane Time Restriction, Dedicated
Right-Turn Lane Conversion
For this concept alternative the Myrtle Boulevard northbound left turn lane time
restriction would remain in place. The existing Myrtle Boulevard northbound thru/right
travel lane would be reconfigured to be a right only travel lane. Existing pavement
striping arrows, text, and signage would be reconfigured in accordance with the Federal
MUTCD, the NYS Supplement to the MUTCD, and the NYSDOT Highway Design Manual
(see Figure 3.1.1 for layout).
Concept Alternative #3a is recommended for further consideration. The existing 95th
percentile queue length for Myrtle Boulevard northbound thru and thru/right traffic is
approximately 95 ft. (5 car lengths). The existing length of bay storage space between
Page 16 of 87
Town of Mamaroneck Feasibility Study
11
North Chatsworth Avenue and the Town’s parking garage driveway is approximately 125
ft. and can accommodate the right turn lane traffic flow.
3.1.4.Concept Alternative #4a –Dedicated Left, Thru, and Right Turn Lanes
For this concept alternative the pavement and median area on the Myrtle Boulevard
northbound approach would be reconfigured to include 11 ft. wide dedicated left turn,
thru, and right turn travel lanes. The existing raised, curbed median between the parking
garage entrance/exit, which is approximately 125 ft. south of the North Chatsworth
Avenue intersection, would be removed and replaced with asphalt pavement. No
additional median removal south of the parking entrance/exit are proposed as part of this
alternative because it reduces the traffic calming effect and visual appeal of the corridor.
Figure 3.1.4 – Concept Alternative #4a
Concept Alternative #4a is not recommended for further consideration due to the
increased cost to construct and maintain in comparison to the marginal traffic benefit
provided. Maintaining the time restriction for this alternative results in the dedicated left
turn lane being unused for a majority of the day.

3.2.New Jefferson Street at North Chatsworth Avenue
3.2.1.Concept Alternative #1b –Parking Modification to Improve Sight Distance
For this concept alternative the positioning/location of parking spaces on New Jefferson
Street adjacent to the curbed median and on the southwest corner of New Jefferson
Street and North Chatsworth Avenue would be adjusted to provide additional pedestrian
and motorist sight distance. In addition to adjustment to parking signage there would be
placement of pavement gore striping to clearly identify where motorists can and cannot
park. Parking space reductions would include two (2) on New Jefferson Street and one
(1) on North Chatsworth Avenue. Additional signage for motor vehicles, warning them of
the potential presence of pedestrians would be installed as well.
Figure 3.2.1 – Pedestrian Warning Signage
Figure 3.2.2 – Concept Alternative #1b
Page 18 of 87
Town of Mamaroneck Feasibility Study
13
Concept Alternative #1b is recommended for further consideration due to the minimal
cost required and the benefit provided.
3.2.2.Concept Alternative #2b –New Jefferson Street On-Street Parking Shift from
the Median to the Outside Pavement Edge
For this concept alternative positioning of parked cars would be moved from next to the
center curbed median to the outside edge (sidewalk side) of New Jefferson Street. The
same parking positioning improvements described in Concept Alternative 1b would be
implemented with this alternative.
Figure 3.2.3 – Concept Alternative #2b
Concept Alternative #2b is recommended for further consideration due to the minimal
cost required and the benefit provided. Existing signage along the median would be
moved to the outside curb side of the road. No parking signage would be placed along
both sides of the central median. Motorists who expressed concern about helping
children in and out of vehicles would benefit from having access to the existing sidewalk
on the west side of Jefferson Street. There is no sidewalk on the east side of Jefferson
Street and the available Town right-of-way is not wide enough to accommodate new
sidewalk without private property acquisition.
Page 19 of 87
Town of Mamaroneck Feasibility Study
14
3.2.3.Concept Alternative #3b –New Jefferson Street On-Street Parking Shift from
the Median to the Outside Pavement Edge, Curb Bump Outs at the
Intersection of New Jefferson Street and North Chatsworth Avenue
This concept alternative is the same as Alternative 2b except instead of pavement gore
striping there would be full height concrete curbs. The bump outs would reduce the
crosswalk width at North Chatsworth Avenue from approximately 58 ft. to approximately
45 ft. The additional area on each bump out will position pedestrians in a location that
makes them more readily visible to motorists.
Figure 3.2.4 – Concept Alternative #3b
Recommendation of Concept Alternative #3b is dependent on Town preference and
discussions with the maintenance department (concerning snow plowing operations).

4.0 BUILD TRAFFIC DATA
4.1.Level of Service and Mobility
Concept Alternative 3A was modeled to determine traffic impacts by converting the
Myrtle Boulevard northbound thru/right travel lane into a right only travel lane. The
ETC (2022) and ETC + 10 (2032) build LOS and delays were calculated for the project
intersection using the projected weekday peak hour traffic volumes. Peak hour LOS are
tabulated below in Figure 4.1.
Figure 4.1 - Weekday ETC+10 PM (Build) Peak Hour Levels of Service
Brief Summary of LOS Analysis: The LOS and delay time for vehicles at the intersection
of Myrtle Boulevard and North Chatsworth Avenue did not vary in comparison to the
ETC or ETC+10 models because Myrtle Avenue northbound left turning traffic was
restricted during the peak hour.

5 As you know this is heav ily traffic k ed by c hildren and adult pedes trians , sometimes pushing
strollers in front of them. I myself have been almost run down by deliv ery truc k s and speeding
car driv ers who fly up Jef ferson Street to mak e a right or left turn without looking both way s.
As you may be aware, there is no sidewalk on the right s ide of North Chatsworth for s everal
hundred y ards until you reac h Edgewood Avenue. This f orc e is all pedes trians to be on the
dangerous intersect ions of J effers on and Myrtle. Drivers oft en c oas t through the stop s ign
without look ing bot h ways. And as noted I hav e observ ed them driving rapidly through without
look ing at all on Jefferson. The pedest rian halt in all directions on My rtle helps the situation.
Still, there are driv ers who do not s ee the no turn on red warning.

41 In general this light is a traffic nightmare. I think the turn arrows are never timed correc tly,
traf fic backs up in all directions. I am not s ure why and s us pect it's bec ause there are s o many
additional lights, walk signs , turn arrows. It needs an ov erhaul. I don't think it's dangerous from
a pedestrian pers pective. But t he traffic from all directions here is such a mes s and people
turn from all different lanes.

5/12/2021 11:56 AM
45 There is a tendenc y for people t aking a right on red, whic h is normally a s afe maneuver, to turn
at t he ex act moment the walk s ignal and no turn on red s ign illuminates . There needs to be a
better way to communic ate t o driv ers that right turns on red at that intersect ion are only
permissible when t he c ros s signal is not act ivated.
5/12/2021 11:33 AM
46 A longer 4 way, walk interval at My rtle and Chatsworth would be mak e it saf er for pedes trians .
An additional 5 seconds would giv e c aregivers with strollers and toddlers, and elders wit h
walkers more time t o c ross .

becaus e vehicles that are going s traight (c ontinuing on Myrtle) occupy the right lane,
prev enting traffic that is turning right on Chats worth to the VOL from making a safe, right on

considerably, reduc e air pollution due t o the exhaus t fumes of idling cars on Myrtle Blv d., and

14 These intersections involv ing the Madison Avenue areas are often v ery congested, with the
My rtle/Madis on c orner and I-95 entranc e area particularly problematic. Driv ers tend to speed
around the corner, giv en the amount of pedestrian traffic due to the 4 large apartment buildings
and New Rochelle project c omplex in t he immediate area, it c an be diffic ult to cross the st reet
easily. Perhaps a lower pos ted speed limit across all of Madison, or even a light where Ex it 17

32 Pedes trians walking Wes t on N. Chat sworth are at particular risk f rom drivers who are turning
left from New J efferson onto N. Chatsworth (they would be at risk to right turners als o but right
turners would not take this route). Visibility for driv ers (both direc tions, but look ing right /eas t in
particular) and pedestrians s hould be improved. Changes to the intersection to mak e driv ers
stop earlier would also help (there was a change at Huguenot and Lafay ette Rd.; while not
perfec t, there has been improv ement). Another idea is a speed bump right before the
pedestrian intersect ion. That at leas t would mak e cars slow down.
6/1/2021 4:21 PM
33 It's a dangerous crosswalk. Those turning right off of N. Chatsworth onto New Jef ferson, don't
slow at all and this is partic ularly dangerous bec ause they cannot see pedestrians on the
corner. The v iew is obstructed by c ars parked there, right until the end of the curb. On the
other side - where c ars driv e up New J efferson to t urn right or left onto N. Chatsworth,
pedestrians' and driv ers' views are block ed by t he park ing lot wall -- c ars must pull out over the
cros s walk t o s ee any thing coming from the right. Finally, there is no plac e to s afely cros s the
road to get t o Memorial Park . It would be terrific to hav e a crosswalk here. The only place to
cros s is up at Mrytle and N. Chatsworth and no one will walk all t hat way just to walk back to
the park across the st reet from New Jeffers on. I f eel like I'm playing Frogger every time I

42 Pedes trian safet y at N. Chat sworth and Myrtle Blv d----Some aspec ts of the exis ting traffic flow
are ex c ellent. My conc ern re s afety has to do with the The ov erhead, lighted "No Turn" sign.
The sign is good, but it s hould come on a f ew seconds BEFORE the pedes trian WALK s ign
comes on. Too often a car "jumps the gun" or is already in the crosswalk before that sign
comes on. I hav e s een people nearly hit in t hat manner by a car turning right. Als o, too many
drivers do not come to a full stop prior to turning right on red and some of them "clip the curb"
and could hit a pedestrian who might foolis hly be standing t oo c lose t o the curb. The same
condition is true for the intersec tion of Murray and My rtle where cars do a "rolling stop" after
speeding downhill on Murray. Another issue is t hat the s igns permitting "Right Turn on Red"

a turn and others do not hav e t o mak e the turn, but aggressiv e motorist s do a lot of honk ing to

scope of this study, but I would als o s uggest t hat one of thos e signs indicat ing auto s peeds be
post ed further north on Murray Av e just before the road divides at the tennis c ourts in Memorial
Park. Autos there routinely speed coming down the hill. Those signs are very good reminders
to motorists not to exc eed 30mph which is t he town limit. Las t is bicycle s afety I see adults
and youngsters who ride their bikes on the sidewalk often ignoring the safety of pedestrians,
many of whom are elderly and unst eady who can be badly frightened by a s peeding cy c lis t
who comes up from behind fas t and with no warning.
43 Driv ing North on New J efferson and turning left on N Chatsworth is often times dangerous due
to reduced vis ibility. Driving north on Mrytle and turning right (right turn on red) is way too often
not allowed due to cars want ing to go straight. Make the right lane a right turn only lane.

50 Cars turning onto Jefferson f rom N Chatsworth are often s peeding and t wic e I have had my

speed down Myrtle from Chats worth and many do not st op or even slow down for the 2
cros swalks (Myrtle & Madison). For drivers, any time t here is traffic , the bewildering number of
choic es and multiple intersections at Madison and New J efferson creates an elev ated s afety
concern -- as y ou k now, t he on ramp for 95, the off ramp for 95, t he northbound lane of New
Jefferson, the southbound lane of New J effers on, the inters ection of Maxwell and Madis on,
and the 90 degree curv e on nort hbound 5th Avenue as it v eers into and t rans it ions t o become
Eas tbound Madis on are all grouped together a very short dis tanc e apart -- in mid- to high-lev el
traf fic c onditions, t here is s imply t oo muc h information that a driver or pedesrian has to
proc ess s uccessfully and then ex ec ute quickly and skillfully in order to avoid danger. On top of
all that, in heav y rain c onditions I have s een rainwater literally s hooting upward out of the
sewers at the inters ection of New Jefferson and Madison pooling into a siz able pond. I have
seen the plan for proposed islands, c ross walk s , green s pace for wat er permeation, lane

89 Speeding not s topping before turning has become a regular occurrence all ov er the interac tions
around the Myrtle Blvd area. I c an’t unders tand why the 25mph s peed is almos t never
enforc ed. For thos e of us liv ing in the apartments the horn blowing and s peed is a real danger.

90 Coming onto N. Chatsworth Ave and turning left, there is very little vis ibility.5/13/2021 5:44 PM
91 For NC and NJ not s ure - I don't think a 3-way stop mak es s ense and a 2-way (for NC heading
towards town and NJ) will just lead to confusion s imilar to other intersect ions in town wit h
unbalanced stops. Maybe better s ignage? May be also c utting down some plantings to give
better s ight lines for drivers coming to the s top sign on NJ where it hits NC? May be eliminate
park ing north of the NC and NJ int ers ection to giv e drivers turning right a better view of
pedestrians? For the intersection of NC and MB - t he issue I've seen is t hat cars mak ing the
left turn from NC heading north k eep going through the red turn arrow. Also I 'm gues sing there's
gps confusion about which right turn to mak e for 95. I see many drivers get in the right t urn
lane for MB and then move over to get into the through lane, only to make a left ont o NJ.
May be a sign at the int ers ec tion c learly direc ting drivers to mak e a left onto MB to get to 95
South?

95 Driv ers treat the permit ted right turn on red f rom Murray onto Myrtle as a requirement of the
intersection. It is the only area where a right turn on red is allowed while pedestrians are
cros sing, noting that the pause of right turn on red permission during the pedes trian crossing is
often not heeded at the rest of the inters ec tion. It is a confusing and c omplex inters ection
already and a frequently utiliz ed pedestrian c ross ing area; inc reas ed appetite for turning right
on red will only serve to inc reas e danger to pedestrians and encourage more drivers to honk
loudly where thos e in front of them decide not to turn on red.

99 Speeding is a major issue for the area identified. For a town that prides itself on being a
walking community not enough is done to protect pedes trians . I often walk t o town and to the
train s tat ion. It is treac herous t o c ros s these intersect ions . I am in fav or of better mark ed
cros swalks and better timed lights. At the c orner of Myrtle and N. Chat when t he light turns to
allow pedes trians t o c ros s t he v ehic les are permitted to turn right on red. How about a full four
way st op? One action by drivers is to go through the light mak ing a left from N. Chat when
leav ing town to Myrtle heading t o the ent ranc e to I95 south. Additionally, the problem whic h
res idents have expressed concern about for y ears is the speeding problem on N. Chat. By the
time c ars traveling down the hill towards My rtle the s peed at which they are going is
excess ive. The s ame is true going in revers e. There needs to be stop signs on N. Chat and
Edgewood Ave. and N. Chat and Huguenot Drive to slow the traffic and t o allow pedest rians to
cros s more s afely. This area is partic ularly conges ted wit h driv ers given the proximity t o I95,
the town and the train station. Safety precautions should be put in place accordingly. Where is
the polic e enforcement of s peeding regulations?

103 Conc ern regarding pedes trian safety at new Jef f and n c hats worth intersec tion if any rerouting
occurs with the volume of traffic that comes off and on ramp for 95. Many s enior citiz ens and
children walk down n c hatsworth to town. Als o c oncern that any c hanges will inc reas e traffic
flow to new jefferson which is a more residential and narrow s treet . Want to mak e s ure that
through t raff ic st ays on myrtle which is wider and more c ommerc ial s treet.

104 Two is s ues: Westbound t raff ic on N. c hats worth of ten continues to make lefts onto My rtle long
after the through traffic has t he right of way. This is the most c ommon caus e of near ac c idents
at t his intersection. Also, lots of west bound traffic enters the left turn only lane, only to reach
the intersec tion and go straight. Most of this traffic then t urns left onto N. Jefferson. The
suspic ion is that mapping s oftware (e.g. Google) are directing I-95 traffic via N. Jeffers on when
My rtle is the muc h c leaner c hoic e (from a traffic f low s tandpoint).

109 Limit oversiz ed vehicle traffic on N Chats worth turning onto New Jefferson.5/12/2021 7:04 PM
110 As a walk er, I am often frustrated that drivers do NOT fully stop at North Chats worth & New
Jefferson or just outright ignore the four-way walk at North Chats worth & Myrtle. I’m not sure
the Town c an be any more c lear than red lights and the big signs wit h the right turn c ros s ed out
and yet t hey are ignored. I feel if I hav e to wait for the walk sign, driv ers can wait for a green
light. We are a s mall t own and a little courtesy between walkers & driv ers would be nic e.
5/12/2021 7:03 PM
111 Currently, the right lane of the two lanes on Myrtle Boulevard approac hing N. Chatsworth from
the south (c oming off I-95 North, for example) are marked for “s traight ahead ⬆ and right turns
➡ ”. Ty pically, at all times of the day on both weekday s and week ends: the right lane backs up
with 3-12 c ars , mos t of whic h are turning right but c an be blocked by the first vehicle whic h is
waiting to go straight. Or is uncertain whether right turns are permitted af ter a full stop. The left
lane, which is for straight ⬆ and lef t turns ⬅ , usually has between 0-3 cars . The conges tion in
the right lane caus es driv ers to honk s inc e t hey k now that right turns are allowed on red lights.
The right lane should be for vehicles mak ing right turns, only. And the left lane s hould be for
going s traight or making left turns. A s ign indicating that right turns are permitted after a full
stop, would als o help with driver uncertainty.

114 It is difficult f or t raff ic approaching North Chats worth on New J eff ers on to see vehic les
approaching the intersect ion from both direc tions, but, es pecially, from the left , and it is
difficult for pedes trians wishing or starting to c ros s New Jef ferson to be seen (espec ially due to
a large bush on the right) Eliminating park ing in a few spaces on New J effers on at North
Chatsworth, and on North Chat sworth at New J eff ers on, and remov ing the one large bus h,
should s ignificantly help both drivers and pedestrians. A Yield to Pedes trians in Crosswalk and
an obvious c rosswalk should help pedes trians .

along here daily and have had multiple near-misses with c ars -- Cars driving along New
Jefferson and turning onto N Chats worth cons istently run the s top sign and s top (or only s low
down) past the cros swalk -- while there's also an issue with cars not ac tually stopping, the
primary is sue is that cars have to go past the stop s ign and into the cross walk to look for

5/12/2021 5:07 PM
120 Driv ers often turn without looking and I've seen many pedestrians cross without the light and
als o without looking. The left onto New J efferson is of ten made haphaz ardly, and without clear

the walk signal at Chats worth and Myrtle c an also be addres s ed.

123 On Jefferson coming onto Nort h Chat sworth, it is hard to see oncoming traffic so often t imes
people roll through t he s top sign and into the pedestrian walkway. That's dangerous for people
walking on the walk way. At the other inters ection, the light hand s ignal for c ars turning on

129 I have always worried about this s tret ch of N Chatsworth... Years ago, I was s topped in a line
of t raff ic at a light at the corner of My rtle and N. Chatsworth (c loser to the intersec tion with
New J eff ers on) and had a c ar f ull of carpool kids and was rear ended hard and pus hed into the
car in front of me. I believe the v isibilit y c oming down the hill especially in the morning with
sun can be an issue. In addition, my k ids belonged to NY Sports and us ed to walk there and
cros sing N. Chatsworth from Edgewood has alway s felt tric k y and c onc erning espec ially in the
dark . In addit ion, when the k ids were new drivers and going from Edgewood onto N.
Chatsworth and when the s treet (opposite side) was pac ked with commuter cars taking Metro
North, I f elt it was a dangerous and narrow turn to make. I don't have a partic ular s uggested
action but wanted to mention thes e issues.

144 The intersect ion with New Jefferson St when coming off the highway can be difficult to cross

Furthermore with the entrance/exit to the dump very c los e t o the ramp, there can be vehic les
cros sing paths. The c ros s road between New Chatsworth/Chatsworth Ave and My rtle Blvd have
a No Right when the pedestrian crossing is allowed, but some v ehic les do not follow the

number of c ars simply NOT follow traffic lights at Myrtle. They go st raight through red lights!
It's a very c onfus ing intersection, especially bec ause you are allowed to make a right turn on
red onto my rtle (going west) sometimes, but other times y ou're not. J us t make it a no turn on
red all the time turning in bot h directions! Station a polic e officer there during rus h hour t o give

157 When approaching the My rt le st op s ign, people often s top IN the intersection and do not allow
pedestrians to c ross. When approac hing Jefferson, it c an s ometimes take more than 2
minutes to get an opportunity to move. Need a light.

right -hand through lane at Vine/Murray, or they us e the left through lane at Vine/Murray and
then c ut over to the right between the two intersec tions. Not sure what the right s olut ion is

162 1. Myrtle & N. Chats worth: a) If you stay at left lane and y ou plan to keep driv ing on My rtle,
you will need to c hange into right lane at Murray (as the left lane is for left into Murray only),
but it only gives you les s than one minut e to do it , very dangerous. b) If y ou s tay at right lane,
cars behind you often make honks becaus e they want to make legal right t urns and it's v ery
annoying. c) Pedes trians need t o wait for a long, long time to get to pass that huge
intersection, and the time given is ex tremely short. So mos t pedes trians walk diagonally s o
they don't need to s pend about 10 minutes jus t on waiting for green light at the inters ection.
Some even jus t jay walk if impatient. Dangerous. 2. New J effers on & N. Chats worth: a)
becaus e you cannot turn left at N. Chats worth from Myrtle during peak hours , people take New
Jefferson as a s hortcut, t he road condition on New J effers on is awful. b) People leav e I-95
tends to tak e New Jef ferson, the road condition is awful. c) It is extremely difficult to make
right /left turn at that c orner, due to multiple f actors . 3. Please als o monitor traf fics at Maxwell

could be an is s ue with additional traffic. Low v isibility for pedestrian with the s hrubs that are
bloc k ing view when making the right turn Solution - again clear some gm amd mark ing on the
road. Also need to remov e s hrubs / flowers to inc reas e v isibility to s ee pedest rians/ bikers

166 Need room (width) for saf er bik e riding entering into this inters ection, es pecially trav eling on
Chatsworth to Nort h Chat sworth from t rain s tation. Also, the left turn light-up s ignal (for cars
traveling in the same direction as noted in my previous s entenc e) that is NOT part of the
ty pical traffic signal is v ery confusing, unless y ou have liv ed here a while and are us ed to it
and know what to look for. I hav e nev er seen any thing lik e it. While it is clear, once you know
how it works, it's s o atypical, that I have even gotten it wrong and I live here and go through
that intersect ion frequently.

167 The right turn lane from c hats worth onto my rtle (c oming from 95 ov erpas s) is often empty and i
cant get into it bc the middle lane is back ed up so far.

171 Crossing New Jefferson on foot is very dangerous as cars need to pull forward to see traffic
before turning onto N. Chats worth and do not always look for pedestrians. Cars t urning off N.
Chatsworth are often going too fast - especially if making a left turn onto New Jefers on
5/12/2021 11:26 AM
172 Close off New Jeffers on St at Madison and c onnect the two s ides of New J, just s hort of
Madison, so that it bec omes a sort of elongated U. That will eliminate the short c ut from New
Roc helle and I-95 and minimize the dangerous lef t turns on to North Chatsworth. Left turns will
need to be opened up f rom My rtle t o N Chat sworth going north but that's a muc h more open
space with better vis ibility. Conf lic ting streams of t raff ic at New J/Madison would als o be
reduced.

173 Right t urn on red from Myrtle Blv d onto N. Chat sworth eas tbound is often imposs ible due t o
drivers eit her unaware they can make the turn or bec ause they are going s traight but fail to

174 Cars c ome fly ing down New Jefferson coming off 95 approaching N c hats worth. We own an apt
in 21 chat sworth that my mother lives in. We live at another property in larchmont. I hav e three
kids under 7 and until I started parking on and around NÉW jefferson to vis it the apartment I
never apprec iat ed how unsafe it is. Cars do not look at all for adults let along kids. Getting k ids
in and out of a park ed car on new jeffers on is the most stres s ful/dangerous thing ever. Cars fly
almost taking doors off . All night long my mom hears cars racing down new jeffers on. People
cut through between larchmont and mamaroneck using new jef ferson and then c ontinuing onto
my rtle and vic e v ersa. They are s peeding with little regard f or any pedes trians around them.
The cars ripping down new jefferson t owards n c hats worth not only fly they don’t s top at the
actual stop s ign. The v ision to the left of cars coming down north c hats worth is diffic ult and the
plants and other items limit site to the right . Also - we pull out of the parking lot of 21 N
chat sworth and almos t get hit from cars fly ing and turning right from new jefferson. And when
I’m coming down north chatsworth towards new jef ferson I slow down to turn right into the 21 N
chat sworth parking lot and almost get hit by speedy driv ers turning right from new jef ferson.
It’s hones tly the worst s it uation in t own. And I wouldn’t f ully apprec iate how bad unles s I
park ed there regularly and walked with small k ids . Als o to note that the is land in new jefferson
has trees and uneven sidewalk. There is no way to push a s troller or walk s afely with k ids
down t he island. In fac t my mother tripped very badly on the roots of trees there. So to safely
walk with kids you hav e t o c ros s t he dangerous new jeff ers on to the sidewalk side and t hen
approach n c hats worth and cross new jeffers on at the crosswalk. It’s impos s ible and I c an’t
believe no one has been k illed

Memorandum
To: Meredith Robson, Town Administrator
Town Board Members
From: Tracy Yogman, Town Comptroller
Date: September 1, 2021
Re: Authorization- Commercial Building Maintenance Corp (CBM) Contract
The Town currently uses three vendors to clean the Highway Garage, Mamaroneck Village
Ambulance, Larchmont Volunteer Ambulance and the Police Department (Saturdays only).
The ice rink now requires additional cleaning services for the six new locker rooms that are
ready for use and the lobby area. It is in the Town’s best interest to continue to utilize an
outside vendor as they will provide consistent service at a reasonable price.
An RFP was issued to provide janitorial services on June 16, 2021 that included cleaning,
disinfection and floor care for all locations. Each of the locations other than the ice rink are
cleaned once a week. The ice rink lobby and locker rooms will be cleaned daily for ten months
a year.
The current annual cost to clean Highway Garage, Mamaroneck Village Ambulance,
Larchmont Volunteer Ambulance and the Police Department is $26,964 without the ice rink.
The Town received seven sealed proposals on July 23, 2021 in response to the RFP. The bid
prices for a three year period ranged from $94,731 to $337,740. The bid tabulations are
attached for your review. The vendors all confirmed that their prices were provided at
prevailing wages. The bids were evaluated on the three year price, responsiveness, experience
and responsibility. The Town will provide paper cleaning supplies and the vendor will provide
green cleaning products.
Commercial Building Maintenance Corp. has been identified as the lowest responsive and
responsible bidder for all locations including the ice rink. The first year cost will be $30,425
or $3,461 higher than the Town’s current cost. The second and third year increases are 3.5%-
4% annually. The contract will be a two year contract with an optional third year extension at
the Town’s discretion. The contract will also provide for additional services to be done on an
as-needed basis that includes floor scrubbing, window washing, power washing and other
similar services.
Commercial Building Maintenance Corp. is a national company with municipal clients and
many years of experience. We have checked references and have met with the vendor to
review scheduling, confirm pricing and review the ice rink requirements.
Page 66 of 87
Should the Town Board approve this contract, janitorial services shall commence on
September 15, 2021 for the ice rink and October 1, 2021 for all other locations.
Action Requested:
That the Town Board award a contract for janitorial services to Commercial Building
Maintenance Corp (CBM) at the costs below and for additional services on an as
needed basis at negotiated prices and that the Town Administrator be authorized to
sign this agreement.

From: Tracy Yogman, Town Comptroller
Date: September 1, 2021
Re: Draft Investment Policy
Attached is an update of the Town’s Investment Policy that was adopted in 1994. The
policy outlines the allowable investments, eligible collateral and other banking
requirements in compliance with General Municipal Laws. Periodically, General
Municipal Laws are revised and the Town’s policies should be updated accordingly to
reflect the changes.
The following updates have been made to the current version of the Town’s Investment
Policy:
1.The Objectives of the policy have been outlined in more detail.
2.The authorized list of banks that the Town may do business with has been
updated as many of them have merged.
3.Removes the maximum limit of $15 million per bank since the Town collects
over $200 million in tax levies. Currently, the Town has investments in Sterling
National Bank and NYCLASS. The policy includes various possible banks that
may offer advantageous yields on a short term basis.
4.Updated the list of eligible securities that banks may use as collateral in
compliance with General Municipal Law § 10.
Requested Action:
Adopt the attached Investment Policy effective immediately.

Resident Feedback Requested on New York’s Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act
Come to the Wednesday, September 1 or Wednesday, September 22 Town Board meeting to
express your opinion on the decision of whether the Town of Mamaroneck should opt out or not
from the sale and on-site consumption of cannabis in regard to the recent New York State
cannabis legislation, Marihuana Regulation and Taxation Act (MRTA).
Background:
On March 31, 2021 Governor Cuomo signed into law New York’s Marihuana Regulation and
Taxation Act (the “MRTA”), which was enacted with the purpose of creating a regulated and
taxed cannabis industry in New York. While sale of adult-use cannabis is not expected until late
2022 or early 2023, the following provisions took effect immediately. Any individual 21 or older
may:
(a) possess, display, purchase, obtain, or transport up to 3 ounces of cannabis and up to 24 grams
of concentrated cannabis;
(b) transfer, without compensation, to another person 21 or older, up to 3 ounces of cannabis and
up to 24 grams of concentrated cannabis;
(c) use, smoke, ingest, or consume cannabis or concentrated cannabis unless otherwise
prohibited by state law;
(d) possess, use, display, purchase, obtain, manufacture, transport or give to any person 21 or
older cannabis paraphernalia or concentrated cannabis paraphernalia;
Under the MRTA What Can Local Municipalities Control?
Local municipalities have been granted little control under the MRTA. Essentially municipalities
have two options:
Ban retail dispensaries and on-site consumption establishments within their jurisdictions
by opting out of the MRTA
Set parameters in which these types of business could function within their boundaries. If
such establishments are allowed within a municipality, a municipality may pass
regulations governing the time, place and manner of the operation, as long they do
not make the operation of such licensed retail dispensaries or on‐site consumption sites
unreasonably impracticable. Municipalities will receive 75% of the local excise tax
related to the sale of cannabis in the municipality.
Page 76 of 87
What Does it Mean for a Municipality to “Opt-Out”?
• Local municipalities have the right to opt-out of the MRTA, which means that retail
dispensaries and on-site consumption establishments may not be established within their
boundaries. In order to opt-out, a municipality must pass a local law to that effect prior to
December 31, 2021.
• If a municipality opt-outs of the MRTA, it still has the ability to opt back in at a later date.
• If a municipality does not opt out before the December 31, 2021 deadline, then the municipality
does not have the ability to opt-out in the future and is required to allow licensed retail
dispensaries and on-site consumption establishments indefinitely.
What Restrictions does the MRTA Impose and What are the Benefits to Municipalities?
• The MRTA calls for the creation of a Cannabis Control Board and Office of Cannabis
Management that would function in a similar manner to the New York State Liquor Authority.
These agencies would set the rules for operation and permitting requirements for cannabis
related establishments.
• These two agencies do not have members appointed yet. It will take time before they will be
able to promulgate rules or regulations. As a result, it is expected that cannabis related
establishments will not be operational until late 2022 or early 2023.
• A local excise tax will be imposed on the sale of cannabis products by a retail dispensary. The
tax will be 4% of the product’s price. This tax is distributed to local governments based on where
the retail dispensary is located. The municipality in which the sale takes place will receive 75%
of the taxes collected and the County government will receive the remaining 25%.
Where is the Town of Mamaroneck in the decision making process?
• The Town Board has not made a decision yet. Before making the decision, we want to hear
from residents of the Town about what they think and feel about the sale of cannabis. Please
come to the September Town Board meetings (Wednesday, September 1 or Wednesday,
September 22) to share your feedback during the Citizen Comments portion of the Town Board
meeting at 8:00 pm in the Town Center Court Room.
• Residents may also provide feedback directly to Nancy Seligson, Town Supervisor, via email at
supervisor@townofmamaroneckny.org . All email submissions should be submitted by close of
business Wednesday, September 22.
More information regarding the MRTA can be found on the Office of Cannabis Management’s
website.
