The first Europeans to visit the Westchester area - Giovanni Verrazano, an Italian exploring for France in 1524 and Henry Hudson sailing under the Dutch flag in 1609 - were just "passing through" in search of a water route to Asia. However, the region's beauty and abundant natural resources, as advertised by Hudson and Verrazano, drew other Europeans who acquired land and stayed. Colonial Westchester In the 1620s and 1630s,the first permanent white settlers, sponsored by the Dutch West India Company,began to congregate in the Hudson Valley between the earlier Dutch settlements in New Amsterdam (New York City) and Fort Orange (Albany). The Europeans found here several Indian villages occupied by members of the Algonkian tribes. The transfer of ownership of land from Native Americans to Europeans was not initially peaceful. Even after peace treaties - all primarily advantageous to the newcomers - were signed, injuries from land battles and diseases brought by the Europeans continued to plague and decimate the Native Americans who eventually disappeared entirely from the area. The English, seeking economic and religious freedom, appeared on the scene in the 1640s, moving west from towns in New England to Westchester and the Bronx. The earliest English settlements in what is now Westchester County were at Rye, Mamaroneck, Eastchester and Bedford. Simultaneously, large individual holdings called manors were established by royal grant. The largest of these was the property of Frederick Philipse along the Hudson, stretching upriver from Yonkers to North Tarrytown. During the late 1600s, life for most Westchester residents was primarily at the subsistence level. The few exceptions included the lords of the manors and their families. Roads were few and in poor condition and transportation was heavily dependent on water. The general standard of living began to rise in the eighteenth century. Although the economy was still primarily agricultural, farmers began to supplement income through cottage industries - shoe making and furniture crafting. These industries led to heavier use of local roads; heavier use necessitated road improvements which encouraged increased travel. Taverns providing accommodations for travelers were established, and ferries were launched. By 1775,Westchester was the richest, most populous county in the New York Colony. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 1 History and Land Use Revolutionary Transition Once the Revolution began, however, Westchester experienced more fighting and suffering than any other area in the colonies. Two major battles, Pelham and White Plains, were fought in the county in October 1776. Following these conflicts, the main American headquarters was located at Continental Village just north of Peekskill with the British headquarters in New York City. Westchester became "the Neutral Ground" between the two camps, with residents throughout the county subject to raids, pillaging and destruction by "irregulars" - unenlisted soldiers - of both sides. By the war's conclusion in 1783, Westchester was a wasteland with a depleted population. Five years later, in 1788, the county was officially divided into 20 towns. In 1798, the first federal census recorded a population of 24,000 centered in northern Westchester and the chief occupation was farming. Early Infrastructure Improvements As the population expanded the Albany, Danbury and Boston post roads, used for the transportation of produce as well as mail, proved inadequate to meet increased travel demands. In 1800,the first commercial toll road,the Westchester Turnpike which ran through Pelham and New Rochelle, was chartered. Other toll roads including the Croton (Somerstown) Turnpike were later established. During this same period, steamboats began to appear on the Hudson River. Expansion of transportation options encouraged economic expansion. Larger industries - iron foundries in Peekskill and Port Chester, brickyards in Verplanck and Croton, marble quarries in Ossining and Tuckahoe - were gradually established. Two developments in the 1830s and 40s - the construction of the Croton Dam and Aqueduct and the coming of the railroad-had enormous impact on Westchester's growth. The railroads contributed to a population shift from northern to southern Westchester. By 1860, the total county population was 99,000 and the largest city was Yonkers. Throughout the nineteenth century, most of Westchester's citizens were farmers or small business owners. Some of the well-known and very wealthy were also among the county's residents, too. John Jay, first Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, lived in Katonah and in Rye. Author Washington Irving built Sunnyside on the Hudson River in Tarrytown. Robert Havell in Ossining and Jasper Cropsey in Hastings were among the noted artists who had homes and studios near the Hudson River. The Civil War and the Turn of the Century The effect of the Civil War on Westchester was dramatic. At the beginning of the conflict, feelings concerning abolition were mixed among county residents. After the South seceded, however,Westchester sentiment became solidly pro-Union. The end of the war brought many readjustments, including the return of the soldiers, a sharply increased cost of living and slower overall growth in population. But at the end of World War I, Westchester's 1920 population was 350,000-more than three times the 1860 figure. 2 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 History and Land Use The railroads continued to shape local growth. As the New York Central's Putnam and Harlem lines brought rail service to the north and central sections of Westchester, the locations of stations often determined whether a town or village developed or declined. Expansion of the New York City water system also impacted local development. Between the 1880s and the 1920s the construction of the Kensico, Croton and Catskill systems created jobs, dams, bridges and new roads and in some cases prompted the relocation of entire villages. During the last half of the 1800s,Westchester's transportation system and labor force attracted manufacturing concerns,particularly along the Hudson River. Pills and patent medicines were manufactured in Ossining; automobiles in North Tarrytown; greenhouses in Irvington; beer in Dobbs Ferry; sugar, paving material and conduit in Hastings; and in Yonkers, elevators and carpets. New York City residents began migrating to the suburbs in the late 1800s; county municipalities incorporated and began collecting taxes in order to provide public services to residents. The period after 1865 brought vast fortunes to a new class of entrepreneurs in the New York City area. Many of the wealthy,now able to reach New York City from Westchester by rail in a matter of hours, built large estates along the Hudson River in places such as Tarrytown, Irvington, Hastings and Yonkers; as well as near Long Island Sound in Purchase, Rye and New Rochelle; and on hilltops in New Castle, Bedford and North Castle. None, however, matched the expanse and grandeur of the Rockefeller estates in North Tarrytown and Mt. Pleasant. Twentieth Century Development The primarily rural character of much of life in Westchester continued through the 1920s. The Depression, however, in combination with rising property taxes and increased competition from other areas of the region, forced many farmers to sell land that had in many cases been in the same family for generations. The development of the Bronx River Parkway and the rest of the County park and parkway systems supported existing residential communities and encouraged the established of new ones. The parkways were a boon for commuters, bringing middle class executives and professionals to Westchester. New homes being constructed on former estates and farms were purchased by these new residents. Other modes of transportation, intended to accommodate the growth in the county's population,included the Westchester bus system,established in 1937, and airports in Purchase and Armonk. New businesses appeared in response to expanded markets; White Plains, with branches of many New York City stores,became the county's central shopping center. With the need for new homes for new families following World War II,multi-story apartment houses appeared in the urbanized areas of the county, while the market for single family houses continued to expand. Lifestyle changes during this period included an increased emphasis on leisure time and a new focus on social, cultural and sports activities,particularly for young people. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 3 History and Land Use Sustainable Growth Major interstate highways constructed in the 1950s and 1960s - 287, described as Westchester's "platinum mile," and 95 and 684 - brought an increased corporate presence. Corporations such as PepsiCo, General Foods, Ciba-Geigy and IBM assembled extensive -- pieces of property on which they constructed massive buildings. These buildings were often designed by world-famous architects and enhanced by formal landscape design. Corporate support for the arts and non-profit social service activities proliferated. Economic progress generated prosperity, but resulting loss or compromise - of open space, air and water quality, and historic buildings - raised the general consciousness of the value of such resources and initiated the establishment of programs such as those carried out by the Westchester County Committee on Nonpoint Source Pollution in Long Island Sound and local Waterfront Advisory Committees and the founding of the Federated Conservationists of Westchester County, the Westchester Land Trust and the Westchester Preservation League. The County is also an active participant in regional conservation programs such as those of the Hudson River Valley Greenway. Striking scenic beauty, proximity to Manhattan, and a rich cultural history have produced an area unique in its combination of rural character and urban sophistication. The county moves toward the millennium with a heightened awareness of the need to protect Westchester's special character while assuring the well-being of its residents and the county's economic strength and stability. This awareness is developing in the context of shared responsibilities for Westchester's future.

The county shares its northern boundary with Putnam County and its southern boundary with New York City. It is flanked on the west side by the Hudson River and on the east side by Long Island Sound and Fairfield County, CT. The Long Island Sound shore is generally rocky. Tidal mud flats and marshes as well as several natural and artificially-maintained sand beaches are interspersed on the coast. Several islands can be found offshore. The uses of these islands vary: Glen Island is a county park for passive and active recreation, Huckleberry Island is largely undeveloped and has one of the largest rookeries for some shore bird species in western Long Island Sound, and Hen Island contains a residential community. Public waterfront access is limited by residential and other development, although municipal- and county-owned parks provide access to public beaches, nature preserves, and passive and active waterfront recreational facilities. The widest section across the Hudson River, about 3.6 miles in width, is found between Westchester and Rockland counties immediately north of Croton Point in Croton-on-Hudson. In Colonial times, this area was called the Tappan Zee or Sea. The Hudson River is brackish through Westchester and contains a small number of estuarine marshes. Two bridges span the Hudson in Westchester; the Bear Mountain Bridge crosses at Cortlandt and the Tappan Zee Bridge at Tarrytown. Public riverfront access is limited by topography, development and public transportation facilities. Municipal, county, and state-owned parks as well as restaurants, provide access to waterfront landmarks and sites, including Croton Point in Croton,Kingsland Point in North Tarrytown, and JFK Memorial Marina in Yonkers. The county's interior generally is more hilly north of Interstate 287, which bisects the county. The highest point, at an elevation of 950 feet, is Bailey Mountain in the northeastern part of the county in the Town of North Salem. The lowest point is sea level on Long Island Sound. The county is divided into six primary drainage basins or watersheds, which are the Lower Long Island Sound, Upper Long Island Sound, Bronx River, Upper Hudson River, Lower Hudson River and Croton River basins. Within these primary drainage basins are approximately 60 smaller basins, or subwatersheds. The principal streams draining the southern part of the county include Beaver Swamp Brook, Blind Brook, Bronx River, Hutchinson River, Mamaroneck River, Saw Mill River, Sheldrake River, Stephenson Brook, and Tibbetts Brook. The primary streams draining the central part of the county include Byram River, Kisco River, Mianus River, Mill River, Pocantico River, and Silvermine River. And the principal streams draining the northern part of the county include Dickey Brook,Furnace Brook, Hallocks Mill Brook, Hunter Brook, Muscoot River, Peekskill Hollow Brook,and Titicus River. The county contains several major reservoirs: Croton Reservoir in Cortlandt, Yorktown, Somers, Bedford and Lewisboro; Cross River Reservoir contained largely in Bedford; Titicus Reservoir in North Salem; Amawalk Reservoir in Somers; Kensico Reservoir in Mount Pleasant,Harrison and North Castle; and Byram Lake Reservoir in North Castle. A number of other smaller reservoirs exist throughout the county. 6 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 History and Land Use DEVELOPMENTAL PATTERNS Westchester County's future growth is based on recognizing the pillars of its historic development, according to Patterns for Westchester: The Land and the People. This long- range plan for the physical development of Westchester concentrates on three distinct physical characteristics: centers, corridors and open space. The plan's general premise is that the health of the county's economy and environment depends on measures to protect and enhance these keystone components of Westchester's development. Land Use In general, the southern part of the county, along Long Island Sound and the lower portion of the Hudson River in Westchester, is more densely developed and populated than the northern portion north of Interstate 287. Development in the northern portion is largely comprised of large patches of low-to medium-density residential development and a much lesser extent of office development, whereas the southern part is a patchwork of development dominated by medium- to high-density residential development, and commercial/retail and manufacturing/ industrial/warehouse uses. The vast majority of tracts of undeveloped, privately-owned land exists in the northern portion of the county. The majority of protected open space also exists in the northern portion,particularly for passive recreational uses. Centers According to Patterns, Centers are focal points in Westchester's pattern of development. Although homes and work places increasingly have spread far beyond concentrated centers, dispersed residents and workers can relate to a center which remains a destination point for community life.There are four levels of concentrated centers found in Westchester: Hamlets The smallest centers, hamlets, are found in northern Westchester. They are often found at the crossroads of historic travel routes and offer such basic facilities as post offices, municipal buildings, houses of worship, and local retail stores. Because of their location, few have the infrastructure necessary to support substantial additional development. Local Centers Most local centers are adjacent to major road corridors. Many are served by north-south commuter rail lines, and almost all are served by the Westchester County bus system. Local centers typically have a well-defined downtown business district and include, in addition to the uses found in hamlets, small scale offices, more extensive retail stores, supermarkets, libraries and other public buildings. Intermediate Centers Intermediate centers are characterized by unmistakable urban activity. All have well developed infrastructure systems. Most, such as Mount Kisco, Tarrytown and Port Chester, provide essential services to a wide surrounding area. In addition to the services WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 7 History and Land Use and facilities found in local centers, intermediate centers are likely to have mid and high- rise apartments,large-scale retail stores,office buildings and light manufacturing. Major Centers Westchester County's cities comprise the major activity centers of the county's economy. The four major centers are in the cities of Yonkers, Mount Vernon, White Plains and New Rochelle. Each has high density development and extensive infrastructure compared to their respective surrounding areas. Major centers contain a small amount of vacant land but have many redevelopment opportunities.

Each corridor has one or more functions, but all to some degree serve a transportation role. Some have become sites for major development. Others are valued for their scenic qualities and the access they give to Westchester's major open spaces. Each influences the economy and environment of the county. Corridors serve transportation,development and scenic functions. Open Space Open space can be undeveloped land and shorelines, parkland for active recreation, also rare or ecologically valuable lands that need permanent protection. Westchester recognizes open space in all of these manifestations, including open space as a visual quality which gives character and contrast to developed areas. In the first decade of this century, foresighted planners recognized that some open space would have to be preserved in a systematic way. Their vision led to the land acquisition and preservation techniques that have insured preservation of Westchester County's open space character. The acquisition of the Bronx River Parkway lands in the early 1900s led to development of the first open space corridor - a scenic travel route linking concentrated centers and,eventually,additional County facilities and parks. Westchester County's open space systems, public and private, vastly enhance the quality of life in the county and are reflected in County and municipal policies aimed at maintaining the open space character of the land. From the perspective of Patterns,the open space system is a prevailing force in shaping development. Open space elements provide relief and contrast in urban and suburban settings and serve to define and buffer them from one another. The open space system has two components: 1. Definite Elements of Open Space Definite elements of open space are publicly or privately owned properties permanently protected from development. 2. Areas of Open Space Character Some land areas make important contributions to open space character but are not permanently protected. These sites include golf courses, campuses and lands that municipal comprehensive plans identify as significant for their open space and/or ecological or recreational value. Although subject to development, privately owned lands can retain their open space function through zoning and design techniques. 10 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 History and Land Use Land Area and Population Density, 1996 Westchester County, NY 1990 1996 1996 Population Census Population Density Municipality Square Miles Population Estimate (Persons/Sq.

Westchester's fiscal position continues to remain strong. Outstanding debt should increase modestly relative to that of other county governments. Sales tax revenue increased 8.5% between 1995 and 1996 reflecting the strength of the local economy. The county had an undesignated fund balance in the 1996 General Fund, which is a continuation of the trend in budget surpluses. Governing magazine's ranking of billion-dollar governments---state and local governments that generate more than a billion dollars in annual general revenue---lists Westchester County as#80. Sound fiscal and economic management has resulted in renewal of the highest ratings from Standards & Poor's, Moody's, and Fitch Investors Service Inc. The county has been rated triple A for all bond offerings since 1988. The county's high credit ratings enable it to pay less in interest charges to improve county facilities, services, and infrastructure. These lower borrowing costs lead to significant savings which can be passed on to local taxpayers. The county property tax levy has grown less than the rate of inflation in recent years. The county, however, currently operates in a difficult fiscal environment. As pressure continues to resist tax increases and the amount of federal and state aid lags behind program expenditures, spending levels need to be monitored and adjusted in order to hold the line on county property taxes. COUNTY FINANCIAL PROFILE 1994 1995 1996 General Fund Revenue(mil.) $915.1 $930.4 $937.3 Expenditures(mil.) $893.5 $905.1 $886.4 Fund Balance(end of year in mil.) $52.4 $39.8 $ 54.7 Source:Westchester County,Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, 1996 28 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Government COMPARATIVE BOND RATINGS Moody's Standard & Poor's Fitch's Westchester County,NY Aaa AAA AAA Nassau County,NY Baal A- A Suffolk County,NY Baa1 BBB+ A Putnam County,NY Aa3 Rockland County, NY Aa3 AA New York,NY Baal BBB+ A- Bergen County,NJ Aaa Passaic County,NJ A l AAA' New York State A2 A A+ New Jersey Aal AA+ AA+ Connecticut Aa3 AA- AA *with bond insurance WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1996 29 Government 30 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 c 0 CO 0. 0 0. v 1-T., JPopu1aruiion �} 6 Population Westchester is home to 893,412 residents, according to recent population estimates. Between 1990 and 1996, the county's population has grown 2.1 percent compared to the more modest increase of 1.0 percent in the decade between the 1980 Census and the 1990 Census. The increase of 18,546 persons since 1990 was the largest absolute population change in the Hudson Valley Region. The composition of population growth has changed between the 1980s and 1990s. Natural increase--the difference between births and deaths--has been relatively stable in recent years. This reflects a leveling off in the annual number of births during the 1990s in contrast to a decade of essentially steady growth during the 1980s. The population growth of recent years has been strongly affected by migration also. Westchester County's international migration between 1990 and 1996 amounted to 26,924, which significantly impacted the population dynamics. Among New York States's 62 counties, Westchester ranks sixth by rate of population change due to international migration. The prime working age population showed a moderate 0.5 percent increase since 1990. The civilian labor force, on the other hand, had declined between 1990 and 1994; but has been increasing since that time. The non-working age population has grown more significantly between the 1990 Census and 1996. The under 20 year old population increased 5.4 percent and the 65 and older group grew 3.5 percent during that time. The southern part of the county tends to be more densely populated and urban than the north. Westchester's four largest cities --Yonkers,New Rochelle, Mount Vernon and White Plains -- account for more than 40 percent of the county's population and are major business and employment centers. Population increases, however, have been greater in the towns and municipalities in the northern part of the county in recent years. Several major business relocations in northern towns account for at least part of this shift. The county's average household size is 2.6 persons, down slightly since 1980. The share of family households also has declined and now comprises 72% of all households, down from 75.6%in 1980. Westchester County is a multicultural community with a racial and ethnic composition not unlike that of the United States. In recent years, the largest changes have been in the growth in the number of Asian and Hispanic residents. Not unlike the rest of the metropolitan region, Westchester has become increasingly global as evidenced by the growth in the number of international firms and businesses, schools,and membership organizations.

The neighborhood settings and patterns of housing development are just as diverse. Thecounty's landscape ranges from an urbanized traditional type of residential development with smaller lots in the southern part of the county, to more suburban type of development, including large lot zoning in the northern part of the county. Its diverse land use setting offers urban lifestyles, village quaintness or rolling hillsides. The median price of a single family home in Westchester was$300,000 in 1997. The number of single family housing units sold have reached record volumes in 1996 and then again in 1997. Cooperatives and condominiums represented approximately one quarter of the sales volume with median prices of$60,000 and$162,000,respectively in 1997. Residential building permits soared in the mid and late 1980's and total units authorized rose to more than 3,000 annually. Housing construction, which had declined in the early 1990s, has picked up over the last three years. The largest number of permitted units were for mult- family housing in the cities of Yonkers and White Plains. Large increases in single-family residential permits since 1990 occured in many of the northern municipalities, notably, Cortlandt,Yorktown and Somers. The U.S. Census Bureau estimates 340,492 housing units in Westchester in 1996, a 1.1% increase since the 1990 Census. Proportionately, the greatest increases were registered in Elmsford, 13.6% Rye Brook, 7.3%, Somers, 7.0%, North Castle, 6.7%, Peekskill 5.2%, and Lewisboro, 5.4% between 1990 and 1996. Sixty percent of Westchester's occupied housing units are owner occupied and the balance,forty percent, are renter occupied. The average rents range from $675 for a studio to $1,625 for a five bedroom apartment. For a two-bedroom unit the average rents range from a low of$848 in Yonkers to a high of$1,375 in Rye.

Westchester County's highly qualified labor force is well utilized as evidenced by its high rates of employment and low unemployment rates over the last decade. Rates are similar to Rockland and Putnam counties,but significantly lower than New York City and for New York State as a whole. Westchester is a integral part of the region's workforce matrix. In addition to its high caliber resident labor supply, Westchester also draws workers from nearby areas. Increased merger and acquisition activity and small business growth have promoted the mobility of workers throughout the region. The county's pivotal location permits flexibility in terms of commutation as well as enhanced employment options to multi-career households. The county provides significant opportunities for resident businesses to recruit, train and upgrade their workforce. Graduates of the county's two dozen post secondary schools help fill the increasing demand for a well-educated workforce. Prospective employers can also hire qualified entry-level workers who have successfully completed training programs in technical, mechanical, service, clerical and other specialized fields offered through the New York State Board of Cooperative Educational Services. Westchester Community College provides additional sources of entry-level workers by teaching contemporary skills to job-seeking homemakers and retirees and language skills that enhance the productivity of foreign-born workers. The Professional Development Center at WCC provides low cost, customized employee training through seminars,courses,and educational programs. After several years of decline, Westchester's labor force has been growing. The number of jobs in the county has been increasing steadily since 1993, driven by high rates of growth in the services sector. More than one-third of the county's jobs are service positions and approximately 10,000 new jobs have been created in the health care field alone. The shift to service industries, not only in Westchester but throughout the region, has been accompanied by a decline in manufacturing activity. Manufacturing jobs peaked in the 1970s; one in ten jobs were in manufacturing companies in 1996, compared to one in five at the beginning of the 1980s. Nationwide, more than 15% of jobs are in manufacturing. Jobs in retail and wholesale trade, which have shown a modest increase during the decade, account for almost one quarter of the employees. Government sector employment has maintained a relatively constant share of the county's • jobs, approximately 15%. Job levels have remained fairly constant in state and local government with modest increases for local education. Jobs in education account for more than half of local government positions.

This represents an expansion rate of 8.4% between 1985 and 1995. Despite a period of considerable economic change since the late 1980s, the business sector as a whole is growing. The headquarters of six Fortune 500 firms arelocated in Westchester County. Downsizings, mergers and acquisitions have changed the profile of many of Westchester's major employers in recent years. In turn, the mix and composition-- in terms of size and types--of businesses here have also been changing. Outsourcing of functions which were formerly performed within larger organizations have generated many new entrepreneurial ventures. The number of business establishments continues to grow. Eighty percent of establishments have fewer than 10 employees and ninety percent of all firms employ less than 20. There are roughly 500 establishments in Westchester with 100 or more workers. Smaller businesses clearly have gained ground in the 1990s. Between 1990 and 1995, there was an increase of more than 500 firms with fewer than 20 employees, whereas the number of larger-sized firms has declined. With the exception of manufacturing, all major industry sectors have been expanding, each at varying rates. The service industries have experienced the highest rates of growth in recent years. Overall, the number of service firms grew 28% between 1985 and 1995. More than one third of all of Westchester's businesses are in services; within these, health services predominate. Health-related establishments expanded 28% during the same ten year period. Finance, insurance and real estate businesses represent approximately 12% of all firms and have also shown substantial rates of growth. Among the high growth industries are engineering and management services, security and commodity brokers, communications firms, insurance carriers, security and commodity brokers, business services, and motion picture businesses. As in other areas of the Northeast, the number of manufacturing business continue to decline and now number just over 1,000 establishments or just 4% of the total. The rate of decline in manufacturing jobs, though, has been faster, as productivity is more evident in these industries. In terms of job generating industries, the business services have outdone even health services in recent years. Business services have added almost 3,500 jobs between 1994 and 1996, particularly in computer and data processing firms, personnel supply and equipment leasing businesses. Special trade contractors and air transportation each added more than 1,000 jobs during the same time. Finns owned by women and minorities have been growing rapidly in Westchester. The 1992 Census of Business shows the number of women-owned firms to have increased more than 40% between 1987 and 1992. Minority owned firms showed considerable growth during this time; the number of hispanic-owned rums increased 83%,asian-owned grew 61%, and black- owned businesses increased 46%.

Median household income ranges from $44,538 to $154,412 among the cities, towns and villages according to 1996 estimates. Median household income for the county as a whole is estimated to be$61,861 for 1996. Estimates of income can vary based on methodology and assumptions, such as the unit of measurement (family, household, etc.), sources of income, and the definition of income itself. Market Statistics estimates Westchester's 1997 aggregate buying income- a purchasing power indicator-at$21.6 billion and 49.8% of households with$50,000 or more in buying income. Compared to surrounding counties, per capita personal income was $40,696 in 1995 and exceeded most other areas. The annual change in per capita income was 5.7%, exceeded in the region only by the increase of Fairfield County, CT. Westchester ranks second in per capita personal income among counties in New York State, surpassed only by Manhattan (New York County). Among all counties in the United States,Westchester County is the sixth highest and 75%higher than the national average income per capita. In recent years,inflation has moderated to the 2.5% to 3.0%range. This compares to 5.5% to 6.0% experienced in the early 1990s in the New York - New Jersey metropolitan region. Food price increases for Westchester County have been slightly lower than the overall rate of inflation. Average wages for jobs in Westchester are closer to New York State average wages than to other counties in the Hudson Valley Region. Wages in manufacturing industries are particularly high due to the presence in Westchester of several large corporate world headquarters of manufacturing companies. Service sector jobs in Westchester pay wages that are comparable to averages for the state. Jobs in finance, insurance and real estate, while averaging a relatively high annual wage in the county, are somewhat below the state average which is heavily weighted by high paying positions in New York City in these industries. • WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 111 Income and Prices 112 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Income and Prices Median Household Income Estimate Westchester County, NY Annual Year Average 1986 $39,886 1987 $42,295 1988 $45,810 1989 $48,405 1990 $51,334 1991 $53,669 1992 $55,596 1993 $57,264 1994 $58,635 1995 $60,119 1996 $61,861 Median Household Income Estimates Westchester County, NY $70000 $60000 1 f $50000 $40000 �e r $30000 $20000 $10000 — CO 1� CO O) O N M LO (O CO CO CO CO O) O) CP 01 O) O) O) Source:US Census Bureau and the Westchester County Department of Planning.

WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 123 d K • Taxes , Business Taxes Westchester County offers the following tax advantages to businesses: • no local corporate income tax • no local personal income tax(except in Yonkers) • no commercial rent tax • no unincorporated business tax Although a number of factors will ultimately determine an organization's tax liabilities, some generalizations can be made regarding taxes. New York State's maximum corporate income tax rate is 11.655% (including current tax surcharges). Most corporations, however,probably qualify for reduced rates as small business taxpayers in New York State. In addition, tax savings may result from investment income treatment. Unlike in New York City, Sub Chapter S corporations are recognized for tax purposes. Relative to its surrounding areas, the Westchester sales tax levy is quite favorable. State sales tax rates in the New York area are considerably less than in New Jersey or Connecticut. Most New York counties in the metropolitan area impose a local sales tax, ranging from 2.5% to 4.25%. Westchester s 2.5% tax rate* is less than the rate in New York City,Nassau,Putnam or Orange. *higher in Yonkers,Mt. Vernon,New Rochelle,and White Plains Resident Taxes Westchester County has no personal income tax*, a factor which helps companies attract skilled,highly-paid employees. The personal income tax is graduated in New York State. New York City has an additional graduated income tax on residents and nonresidents who work in the city. Connecticut also has a state income tax. Residential tax rates vary throughout the cities, towns, and villages in Westchester because each jurisdiction and school district has the authority to levy and collect their own taxes. Generally speaking, however, the greater proportion of the residential real estate tax supports each school district with the remainder remitted to some combination of city/town/village jurisdictions and Westchester County. Variations in these taxes in the county can reflect the presence of ratables (nonresidential tax base), the type and level of services provided, and the value of a community's real estate. *Except in Yonkers WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 125 Taxes 126 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING-1998 Taxes NEW YORK STATE AND LOCAL TAXES The following section outlines some of the more important provisions of the tax laws of New York State. It is designed to provide information in a convenient form and to facilitate comparisons of New York taxes with those of other states. This is not a complete listing of all taxes levied by the State, but does include those taxes and mandated costs which are most likely to affect business. Taxes on Corporate Net Income or Alternatives Franchise tax on business corporations New York State imposes a franchise tax on most domestic and foreign general-business corporations for the privilege of exercising its corporate franchise, doing business, owning or leasing property within New York State. (Utilities, banks, insurance, transportation companies, companies subject to the gross receipts taxes and other corporations which are taxed differently,are not covered under this outline.) • The corporate franchise tax is comprised of a.09%tax on subsidiary capital as well as the greater of the following taxes: • Net income allocated to New York at a rate of 9%. • A corporation's capital allocated to New York at a rate of.178%, subject to a maximum tax of$350,000; • Minimum taxable income allocated to New York at a rate of 3.5%. • Fixed dollar minimum tax that varies with the size of the taxpayer and ranges from $325 - $1,500. MTA Surcharge In addition to the franchise tax on business corporations, New York imposes a 17% surcharge on the State corporation tax liability for firms doing business in the Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District (comprised of several counties in New York, including Westchester). The surcharge is determined by allocating the State tax liability derived from doing business within the district through a three-factor formula (sales, property and payroll, all equally weighted).Payments are made along with those related to the state corporate franchise tax. Allocation New York permits a corporation to allocate income where that corporation has property, payroll or sales in another state. Income is allocated using a business allocation percentage is comprised of three factors: • Property within New York,over Property everywhere; • Payroll within New York,over payroll everywhere; and • Sales within New York,over sales everywhere. The business allocation ratio is calculated by adding the property factor,the payroll factor and twice the sales factor and dividing the sum by four. This method of allocation is most WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 127 Taxes beneficial to a firm having substantial property and payroll in New York, but delivering a large portion of its products or services to out-of-state purchasers. All firms, whether multistate or not, are allowed to apportion investment income and capital, and subsidiary capital. Investment income and capital are allocated on the basis of an issuer's allocation percentage.This percentage is based on the New York activities of the entity which issues securities. Subsidiary capital is apportioned by the New York allocation ratio of the subsidiary. (If a subsidiary does not do business in New York, and thus is not subject to State taxation,the ratio is zero.) Alternative Minimum Tax New York requires corporations to pay a tax on their minimum taxable income base. The Budget has allowed the Alternative Minimum Tax rate to drop to 3.5% in 1997 and years thereafter. The calculation of the minimum taxable income base is calculated by adding to entire net income certain federal tax preference items and reducing entire net income by certain New York preference items. Professional Service Corporation The alternatives used to compute the corporate franchise tax payable by such a firm are the same as a corporate taxpayer. Unrelated Business Income Tax The income of a religious, charitable or other tax-exempt corporation, association or trust, derived from activities unrelated to the purpose for which such organization was established, will be subject to an unrelated business income tax. Small business corporations Shareholders of small closely-held business corporation (as provided in Sub-chapter S, Chapter One, Internal Revenue Code) may by unanimous consent be taxed under a modified corporation franchise tax. The S Corporation Tax equals the difference between the tax calculated at the applicable corporate rate and the top personal income tax rate. The $800 fixed minimum tax for inactive corporations and the MTA surcharge does not apply. ■ Recent Changes to Subchapter S corporation Tax Law: New York has conformed to the Federal tax treatment for Subchapter S corporations ("S corporations") and in large part to changes in the treatment of qualified Subchapter S subsidiaries ("QSSS"). Under New York tax law separate corporate existence of the QSSS may be disregarded, which results in the QSSS being treated as a flow through entity. A QSSS is required to be included on the return of its parent, if the parent is a New York S corporation. 128 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING-1998 Taxes Returns,Declarations and Payments Every domestic business corporation, and every foreign corporation exercising its corporate franchise, having officers or employees in the State, doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, or maintaining an office in this State (except an office maintained by an officer who is not an employee of the corporation, if the corporation otherwise does not meet the foregoing criteria), is required to file an annual report with the New York State Tax Commission, whether or not subject to the franchise tax. The tax return must be filed within two-and-one half months after the close of the firm's fiscal year. The entire balance of tax due for the tax year, less any payment of estimated tax previously made,must accompany the tax return. If a corporation's preceding years tax liability is in excess of $1,000, the taxpayer must pay with its return an amount equal to 25 percent of the preceding year's tax as the first installment of the subsequent years' estimated tax payments. Taxes on other income Personal income tax This tax is levied against the taxable income of residents and the taxable income of nonresidents, allocable to New York. The starting point in computing New York taxable income is adjusted gross income as reportable for Federal income tax purposes, with certain modifications. In general, capital gains and losses are treated in the same manner as for Federal tax purposes except that no preferential tax rate applies. Taxpayers with annual incomes of$4,000 or less are exempt from filing of a tax return. • Exemption: The personal exemption deductible to arrive at net taxable income is $1,000 for each dependent other than the taxpayer's spouse. Taxpayers at least 59 ' years old may exclude up to $20,000 of pension and annuity income. Government pensions are fully exempt. • Deductions: Other deductions from gross income generally are those allowable for Federal tax purposes, with some exceptions. However, New York does not permit the deduction of New York State or local income taxes. Deductions or additions of certain interest expenses and income-production expenses must be adjusted to conform to State regulations. A state taxpayer may itemize deductions on his New York return if the deductions were itemized on the Federal return, or may take the standard deduction in lieu of itemizing. For 1997, the standard deduction is $13,000 for a married couple filing jointly, $7,500 for a single person,and$10,500 for a head of household. • Rates of Tax: Personal income tax rates effective for 1997 start at 4%, and increase to a maximum of 6.85% of income above $40,000 (married joint), $20,000 (single) or $30,000 (head of household). Bracket widths also increase by different amounts depending upon filing status. Taxpayers with New York adjusted gross income of over $100,000 pay a supplemental tax which recaptures the value of the graduated tax rates below the maximum. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 129 Taxes • Credits: Credits are deductible from the computed tax. Other benefits are: • Credits are deductible from any tax already paid for the year, whether withheld by an employer or prepaid by taxpayer. • Credit is available for an allocable portion of any income paid by a resident taxpayer to another state or locality on income which is both derived from such state or locality and is subject to New York state tax.Nonresident taxpayers may not claim this credit. • New York has an investment tax credit for tangible property used in the production of goods and industrial waste treatment facilities at a rate of 4%, and research and development property at a rate of 7%. • Twenty percent of the Federal credit for dependent-care expenses necessary for the gainful employment of taxpayer can be claimed as a credit. • A household credit is available, ranging from $90 if household gross income is less than $5,000 to no credit if such income is $28,000 or over(single) and$32,000(other filing status) • Certain taxpayers may be eligible for a credit up to stated maximums if real-estate taxes paid on their residences are in excess of a stated percentage of household gross income of up to $18,000. Any excess of credit over the personal income tax payable will be refunded. • Beginning after December 31, 1997 taxpayers will be allowed to contribute up to $5,000 a year (exempt from state tax) to a "Family Tuition Account"for their children's college education. Preferred income tax Certain Federal tax preference items are taxable at the rate of 6%. A specific deduction of $5,000($2,500 for a married person filing a separate return) applies. Any tax paid to the State on taxable personal income is also deductible. Returns and declarations Income-tax returns must be filed by April 15t of each year or three and one-half months after the close of the taxable year. Taxpayers must pay estimated tax on a quarterly basis of their annual tax exceeds $100 and their withholding is less than 90% of the current year tax. Taxes on Property or Other Assets Property tax Real-property taxes are levied only by local jurisdictions. Ad valorem taxation of both tangible and intangible personal property is prohibited by law. 130 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING-1998 Taxes Exemptions Real-property tax exemptions for business are available as follows: • Statewide_ Industrial or commercial facilities financed by a local industrial development agency (a tax-exempt organization) are exempt from ad valorem taxation.

All businesses may carry forward any unused portions of the credit earned for up to 15 years. Retail enterprises incurring investments in rehabilitation or renovating structures which qualify under Section 38 of the Internal Revenue Code may also claim this credit. In this case, credits are applicable to the investment in structures which have had no prior construction or rehabilitation for a period of 30 years.

Source Note: All tax information in this section(with the exception of real property taxes) was prepared by BDO Seidman,1997. 140 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING-1998 Taxes Comparative Local Real Property Taxes Rates in Westchester County Westchester County is composed of 46 municipal governments and 41 school districts each with the authority to levy and collect taxes. Many municipalities include portions of several school districts and most school districts contain portions of several municipalities. In only five cases are municipal and school district boundaries coterminous. Furthermore, eight of the 19 towns contain two or more villages. In all, the overlapping of municipal and school district boundaries requires the delineation of 99 separate geographic areas to list comparative property tax rates. The total tax bill of a residential property owner in Westchester County consists of several components. All will pay a County, town or city and school tax. Village residents will also pay a village tax. The town tax paid by residents of a village will be substantially less than that paid by residents of the town outside the village boundaries. Tax rates are established by dividing the total amount to be collected in the taxing jurisdiction by the taxable assessed value (expressed in thousands of dollars). New York State law allows municipalities to assess at any uniform percentage of market value, so the nominal tax rates (those that actually appear on a tax bill) cannot be directly compared. Given equal market value in each, a town that assesses at 5% of value will have to set a tax rate ten times higher than a town that assesses at 50% to raise the same tax dollars. In order to make comparisons it is necessary to equalize the nominal tax rates to bring them all to a full value standard. In this report, which is intended for use by owners of residential property, we have used the Residential Assessment Ratio (RAR) to equalize tax rates. This ratio is simply a measure of the percentage at which each municipality assesses residential property. In the example in the preceding paragraph, the tax rate in the town assessing at 5% must be divided by 20 and the rate in the town assessing at 50%by 2 before the rates may be compared. The result of this equalization process is the "effective" or "full value" tax rates per thousand dollars of full market value that appear on the following pages. A total effective rate of $25.00 per thousand means that a homeowner in a house worth $250,000 could expect to pay about $6,250 (25 x 250) in total taxes. Another way to look at it is that the effective tax rate is 2.5% of total market value. There are many reasons for differences in effective tax rates, not the least of which is the ability and willingness of the residents of a city, town or school district to accept a certain level of taxes in return for a certain level of services. Also,a school district with high property value per pupil will be able to raise more money with a lower effective school tax rate than a less wealthy district. Valuable commercial or industrial parcels, or even large tracts of vacant land, which pay taxes out of proportion to their requirements for services will help to achieve a lower effective tax rate.

The county is easily accessible to and from New York City as well as Connecticut, Rockland, New Jersey and points north such as Albany. The road network offers a system of interconnecting routes for direct travel. Alternate roads are generally available when needed - for efficiency or preference. Road maintenance is a priority and Westchester County coordinates with the N.Y.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration to promote optimal conditions on the roads. The Transportation Management Organization (TMO) and other organizations strive to assure safe and convenient communtation throughout Westchester. Public transportation is readily available intra-county and inter-county. Westchester's Bee Line system provides routes throughout the county, express service into Manhattan, and express service between White Plains and Stamford, CT. in cooperation with Connecticut Transit. Metro North operates three rail lines with frequent daily service between 44 Westchester stations and New York City. For longer distances, Amtrak services the Croton- Harmon, New Rochelle and Yonkers stations for points north to Canada, south to Baltimore and Washington,west to Chicago,and northeast to Boston. Westchester County's airport serves passengers in its newly renovated world-class terminal with service from a number of major U.S. airlines. The airport handles all types of aircraft and is the largest corporate terminal in the country. Power in Westchester County is transmitted and distributed by Consolidated Edison and New York State Electric and Gas. The utilities offer a number of special rate programs to qualifying customers, business and residential, which result in savings in dollars and energy. Power programs specifically for industrial and government customers are provided by and accessed through the Westchester County Public Utility Agency and The New York Power Authority. Westchester's water is provided by two major types of suppliers, municipal and private. The principal water source for both municipal and private suppliers is the New York City water supply system. The Catskill, Croton and Delaware systems are part of the New York City reservoir and aqueduct system and provide water to 85% of Westchester's residents. Seven county-operated wastewater treatment plants located along the Hudson River and Long Island Sound shores service approximately 90% of the county's population. The remaining areas in the north county towns depend on locally-based central sewage collection and treatment districts or on subsurface sewage disposal systems located on each lot. Most solid waste is processed at the Charles Point Resource Recovery Facility in Peekskill. Recyclables are received at the county's Material Recovery Facility which separates, processes and markets materials-a proven cost-effective method of waste management. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 147 In c:structure 148 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Infrastructure Roads Westchester County's road infrastructure includes more than 3,200 miles of local and state roads; approximately 860 miles are primary roads and 650 miles are secondary roads. There are about 180 miles of County-owned and 760 miles of New York State-owned roadway in Westchester County. These roads provide easy and efficient access to New York City, New Jersey, Connecticut,and Rockland and Putnam Counties. The east coast's major artery, I-95, the New England Thruway, runs through southern Westchester and gives residents and commuters easy access to New York and Connecticut. I- 87, the New York State Thruway, runs north to south along the Hudson River and is one of many routes linking Westchester with New York City. Northbound, I-87 provides a direct route to Montreal, Canada. The major east-west conduit is the Cross Westchester Expressway, I-287, which connects the Tappan Zee Bridge with the New England Thruway. I-287 intersects Westchester's county seat, White Plains, and many corporate headquarters and offices are situated along this corridor known as the "Platinum Mile." I-684 runs from White Plains north into Putnam County through many of the north and central suburbs and provides a connection to I-84. A network of six scenic parkways facilitates intracounty travel as well as connection with the larger roadways. This network includes the Bronx River Parkway (the first parkway to open in the United States), the Hutchinson River Parkway, the Cross County Parkway, the Saw Mill River Parkway, the Taconic State Parkway and the Sprain Brook Parkway. Traffic management strategies are an integral part of the road improvement process, and the county is actively involved in a number of activities aimed at minimizing potential road problems and maximizing the safe and steady flow of traffic. A number of highway improvements are planned over the next five years, most of which are relatively short-term projects. Major road and bridge improvement projects anticipated within the next five years include: ❑ Rehabilitation of Interstate 287 between I-87 and Route 120; design not yet determined. ❑ Route 9A reconstruction ❑ Route 35 widening from Peekskill City Line to Taconic Parkway ❑ Widening and bridge replacement on Taconic State Parkway between Route 202/Route 35 and Route 6 ❑ Route 6 widening from Strawberry Road to Route 132 from 2 to 4 lanes ❑ I-684 pavement rehabilitation between I-287 and Route 35. ❑ Renovation of the Woodland Viaduct Bridge over the Metro-North Harlem Line ❑ Replacement of the Haney Road Bridge over the Bronx River Parkway ❑ Rehabilitation of Hutchison River Parkway between I-287 and CT state line to meet current safety and design standards WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 149 Infrastructure Rail The Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) provides frequent and convenient service to and from New York City via the Metro-North Commuter Railroad, a commuter rail system serving 44 stops in Westchester County. Metro-North consists of three branches originating in New York City's Grand Central Terminal - the Hudson Line, the Harlem Line, and the New Haven Line. The trip from White Plains, the county seat and hub, to Grand Central Terminal takes 35 minutes. Three quarters of Westchester's municipalities are directly served by one of these rail lines, and the MTA estimates that on average of 100,000 people ride the railway each day. A growing number of persons make a "reverse" commute into Westchester. As part of a capital improvement plan, recent renovations have resulted in better platform and station facilities, newer equipment and larger parking areas. Monthly commutation discounts are available as well as lower fares for children and seniors. Reduced fare tickets can be obtained for rail and bus connections. Bus The Westchester County Department of Transportation's Bee-Line Bus System provides an extensive network of local, express and railroad feeder bus services. Ridership has grown on the Bee-Line from 22,272,000 passengers in 1978 to 29,265,839 in 1995. The Bee-Line utilizes a variety of vehicles to provide service, including 40 ft. transit buses, commuter coaches, shuttle vans and 60 ft. articulated buses. The Bee-Line operates between Westchester County and Manhattan, the Bronx and Putnam County with over 60 routes in the system. A number of Westchester BeeLine buses are wheelchair lift-equipped. The entire fleet of buses are expected to be totally accessible by 2003. ParaTransit vans are a shared-ride curb- to-curb transportation service scheduled by reservation which provided more than 150,000 trips in 1996. Fare Packages A monthly pass, Passport, and a Bargain Book, a 22-ride ticket book, are available which provide a discount to regular riders of the Bee-Line.

This central location serves as the gateway to Westchester and puts it in close proximity to one of the largest concentrations of company headquarters in the U.S. Many of the county's corporate executives cite the airport's accessibility and as its ability to accommodate both corporate and commercial aircraft as prime benefits to their business. Additionally, Kennedy, LaGuardia, Newark and Stewart Airports are within an hour's drive from most points in Westchester County. The Westchester County Airport is reached via Interstate 684,Route 120 or the county's Bee-Line Bus# 12. The airport handles all types of aircraft ranging from single engine aircraft to large corporate jets and commercial airliners. The Westchester County Airport serves more corporate fleets than any airport in the world. Commercial airlines provide service to major cities including Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Washington with connections to many others. In 1995, the Westchester County Airport moved to a newly constructed, state-of-the-art passenger terminal which provides covered parking facilities to accommodate 1,100 cars, modern baggage handling systems, restaurants and lounges. This 41,000 square foot terminal provides Westchester business travelers with a spacious, world class transportation facility. It replaces a former 50 year old, 10,000 sq. ft. terminal. There are 85 to 90 commercial flights and 550 corporate flights each day with 14 hangars currently in use. Private aviation modernizations scheduled for the coming years include a new corporate hanger, 36 new T- hangers and 182 new tiedowns for small craft. Investment in the Westchester County Airport has enhanced this facility as a vital economic entity in addition to improving its transportation services. A 1997 Economic Impact Study of the Westchester County Airport was conducted to measure and quantify the value of the airport and airport related activities. The study verified the jobs, payroll, operating expenditures and capital investments generated by businesses at the airport and off-airport firms dependent on airport activity which contribute substantiallly to the vitality of the region. Further, visitors using the airport bring dollars into the area to spend on lodging, meals, shopping,transportation,etc. The total annual economic impact was$614 million. According to the corporate survey component of the study, local business satisfaction with the airport makes the area attractive to relocating firms as well. 154 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 In frastructurc Westchester County Airport + Air Lines Serving Westchester County Airport American Continental United Express Business Express Northwest USAirways ComAir United USAirways Express + Destinations Baltimore Cleveland/Rochester, Pittsburgh Binghamton/Buffalo Cleveland/St. Louis/Detroit Poughkeepsie/Burlington, Boston Detroit/Chicago VT Boston/Binghamton Cleveland/Milwaukee Providence/Boston Boston/Ottawa Cleveland/Rochester,MN Rochester Boston/Portland,ME Detroit/Columbus Syracuse Burlington/Providence Detroit/Houston Pittsburgh/Grand Rapids Burlington/Plattsburgh Detroit/Indianapolis Pittsburgh/Charleston, Chicago Detroit/Kalamazoo WV Chicago/Minneapolis- Detroit/Memphis Poughkeepsie St.Paul Detroit/Saginaw Syracuse/Plattsburgh Chicago/Rochester,MN Minneapolis-St.Paul Syracuse/Ithaca Cincinnati Minneapolis-St. Paul/ Washington Cleveland Bozeman Washington/Norfolk Cleveland/Milwaukee Philadelphia WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 155 Infrastructure Transportation Systems Management Transportation Systems Management (TSM) is a process that coordinates individual elements of the transportation network through operating, regulatory, and service policies in order to achieve maximum efficiency and productivity of the transportation system as a whole. Typical TSM actions and projects ensure the efficient use of existing road space, reduce vehicle use in congested areas, improve transit service, and increase internal transit management efficiency. Westchester County government, the Westchester Transportation Management Organization, and service providers such as the Bee-Line and Metro-Pool are all members of the Mobility Advisory Committee of the Mid-Hudson South Transportation Coordinating Committee. This committee was created to develop overall policy with regard to all aspects of mobility management and provide a continuing and coordinated approach to transportation improvements in the lower Hudson Valley. The Transportation Management Organization is a public-private partnership of the Westchester County Department of Transportation and the Westchester County Association devoted to maximizing high occupancy vehicle (HOV) usage - buses, trains, carpools, vanpools to minimize traffic congestion on the Cross Westchester Expressway (I-287) and other major arteries. In addition to promoting ridesharing activities and public transit, the TMO coordinates overall transportation management activities. The Tappan Zee Bridge, which connects Westchester and Rockland Counties, currently has two HOV lanes which have been designated by the New York State Thruway Authority. The Smart Commute Program was introduced in 1996 to address traffic congestion. Westchester County, Metro-North and the TMO work directly with businesses to address transportation concerns. Westchester employers form voluntary partnerships with the Westchester County Department of Transportation. Staff members assess each firm's commuting patterns, educate employees on transit options and help create custom-tailored commuting plans. Westchester's efforts to promote the use of alternatives to drive alone commuting won a 1997 National Association of Counties Achievement Award for innovations in government programs. The various elements of Westchester County's transportation system management program include: ❑ MetroPool: Coordinated ridesharing activities of MetroPool, a non-profit commuter transportation management company, have increased considerably in Westchester. Its emphasis on minimizing people movement rather than vehicles makes it an important element of the transportation management program. Metropool offers over-the-phone, computer-based ride matching for carpools and vanpools, and personalized commuter consultations. Information and ridematching are also available at MetroPool web site www.metropool.com. ❑ TransitChek: TransitChek is a valuable tool in the campaign of reducing dependence on the single-occupancy vehicle. Its coordinated program of tax benefits to employers who purchase TransitChek as transit subsidies for their employees constitutes a tangible and attractive means to this end. Currently, an employer can provide $720, tax free, per month to employees to use for transit; employees are given vouchers to exchange for tickets, passes or tokens. TransitChek vouchers represent a tax- deductible program for employers and a tax-free commuting incentive for employees. 156 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Infrastructure 0 Park-and-Ride Master Plan: A county-wide park-and-ride master plan has been prepared. As its main objective, it identifies sites for park-and-ride facilities, taking into consideration commuter rail stations, potential sites along major roads, transit routes, shopping centers, etc. Implementation of several of the recommendations is now underway. In addition,the following activities are underway: Westchester Commuter Central, a public/private partnerhip between the County of Westchester and Metro Traffic Control, Inc. has been established to disseminate real time traffic information to the general public. In addition, the New York State Department of Transportation, in conjunction withe the New York State Thruway Authority, will be establishing a 24-hour Transportation Management Center (TMC) for the Lower Hudson Valley. The TMC will replace the current Traffic Operations Center and will gather highway/transit information through the use of closed circuit television cameras, roadway speed sensors(TRANSMIT Project),global positioning system transit vehicle tracking as well as other advanced technologies. In addition, the regional transportation agencies such as TRANSCOM are participating in a variety of projects to electronically link information from various TMCs while providing customized travel information services free and on a subscription basis. To assist stranded motorists,the NYSDOT"HELP"program provides emergency road service to vehicles and patrols the the following roadways: I-684 between I-287 and I-84 I-287 between Route 9 and I-95 Sprain Brook Parkway from Route 141 to Bronx River Parkway Bronx River Parkway from Sprain Brook Parkway to New York City line Radio stations in the county frequently broadcast information concerning road conditions,mass transit,congestion,hazardous areas,alternate routes,length of expected delays,accidents and construction activities within the New York metropolitan area. The county assists in these efforts through a grant from the New York State Department of Transportation for Transportation Systems Management activities.

The amount of available power is allocated to those industries which provide the largest number of new or retained employees per kilowatt of power. COWPUSA evaluates or vets applications for Con Edison's Business Incentive Rate. The New York Power Authority The New York Power Authority sells electricity to the Consolidated Edison Company of New York (Con Ed) and government customers. NYPA can provide lower cost economic development power to businesses that will create or retain permanent jobs and meet specified minimum energy demand requirements. The Power for Jobs program makes low cost electricity available to large businesses with an electrical demand of over 400 kilowatts. Small businesses under 400 kilowatts and not-for-profit corporations may apply with other similar organizations to reach the 400 kw threshold. Allocations are based on competitive factors and contracts are for three years. New York Power Authority's generated power is aimed at reducing the electrical cost of doing business in New York State. Consolidated Edision Electric power is distributed and transmitted by Consolidated Edison throughout most of Westchester and by New York State Electric and Gas in the northeast area of the county. Natural gas is supplied by Con Ed to.all Westchester municipalities except North Salem, Lewisboro,Pound Ridge and portions of Bedford and Yorktown. Con Edison's electric business has evolved since 1882 from Thomas Edison's company that supplied electricity in New York City. The gas business dates back to a gas lighting company founded in 1823. Con Ed's mission is to provide energy services to its customers safely, reliably and efficiently. Response to electric and gas customer needs is provided 24 hours a day. In Westchester County, Con Edison serves 333,000 electric and 220,000 gas customers. With the advent of deregulation of the electric power industry beginning January 1, 1998, Con Ed has reduced electric rates for its residential, commercial and industrial customers. Residential and small business customers will benefit from a 10 percent reduction in rates over a five-year period. Rates for large commercial customers also will be cut by 10 percent over five years and large industrial customers rates were reduced 25%on January 1, 1998. Con Edison created a holding company, Consolidated Edison, Inc. on January 1, 1998. As a holding company,Consolidated Edison,Inc. will initially contain several subsidiaries: Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc., a regulated subsidiary of the holding company and its largest affiliate will continue to provide energy generation, transmission and distribution services for electricity, natural gas and steam. The company will operate and maintain these facilities to serve its customers in New York City and Westchester County. The company will continue to be based in Manhattan. Consolidated Edison Development, Inc., a Manhattan-based company invests in energy infrastructure development projects and WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 159 Infrastructure markets technical services worldwide. Consolidated Edison Energy, Inc. is a company that will market specialized energy generation services to customers participating in the wholesale electric market in the Northeast. Business Incentives As a company concerned with the economic vitality of its service area, Con Edison's economic development specialists work closely with state, county and local economic development organizations to provide assistance to companies seeking to start up, expand or relocated within Westchester. Known as "Team Westchester," representatives will meet with firms and provide information on how businesses can benefit from state and local economic development programs and will help individual companies in locating sites that meet their specific needs. Con Edison's Business Incentive Rate offers reductions of up to 25 percent on electricity. It is a 15-year program with 10 years at full benefits and an additional five years at a declining discount. The Business Incentive Rate is available to businesses who are receiving a comprehensive package of economic development incentives from state, county or local government agencies. This can include development financing, workforce skills training and transportation services. The rate also is available to businesses who occupy new or vacant buildings that are receiving substantial real property tax incentives of at least five years duration. Con Edison's Northern Region (serving the Bronx and Westchester) is headquartered at 511 Theodore Fremd Avenue, Rye, NY 10580.

Municipal suppliers serve 43% of the County's land area; private suppliers serve 10%. Municipal suppliers are the local governments which, for the most part, have service areas corresponding to the boundaries of the municipality. Exceptions to this include properties outside a municipality which are more conveniently located to secure their water from the adjoining municipal or private supplier. Private suppliers are privately owned companies from which residential and non-residential consumers purchase their water supply. The principal water source for both municipal and private suppliers is the New York City water supply system. Exceptions to this are areas which rely on local ground water or surface sources either totally,or in addition to,the New York City source. According to the 1995 Annual Water Consumption Report for Westchester County Sources, provided by the Westchester County Water Agency, 41,860 million gallons (mg) of a total usage of 47,646 mg a year were provided to the County by the New York City water supply systems. Surface water supplies 2,635 mg, ground sources supply 1,243 mg. Other New York City sources account for 1,662 mg and other non-New York City sources account for 244 mg. The New York City reservoir and aqueduct system consists of three parts: the Catskill,Croton and Delaware systems. The reservoirs of northern Westchester are part of the Croton system; the balance of the system's reservoirs are in Putnam County. Most of Westchester's water is supplied by the Catskill and Delaware systems. In 1995, approximately 2,853 mg of water from the Croton system were used by Westchester. All of the Catskill and Delaware systems are located north and west of Westchester County; the Catskill-Delaware systems provided Westchester with 39,008 mg of water in 1995. Two intermunicipal water suppliers, the Westchester Joint Water Works (WJWW) and the Northern Westchester Joint Water Works (NWJWW), public benefit corporations, were established under intermunicipal agreements. The WJWW includes the Town of Mamaroneck, the Villages of Mamaroneck and Larchmont and portions of Harrison and the City of Rye. The NWJWW include the towns of Yorktown and Cortlandt and the Montrose Improvement District. Four county water districts, each covering several municipalities or portions thereof, have been established to distribute water and/or to provide benefits such as treatment, maintenance or administration of the water supply. CWD (County Water District) 1 serves the cities of White Plains, Yonkers, Mount Vernon, and the village of Scarsdale. CWD 2 serves portions of the Towns of Yorktown, Cortlandt and Somers. CWD 3 serves the Westchester Medical Center. CWD 4 covers the Town of Rye, the City of Rye, the Village of Rye Brook and the Village of Port Chester. Private suppliers vary greatly in size and range from homeowner associations serving a small area to the larger private water companies serving several municipalities. It is important to note that not all properties within an area served by a water supplier receive water from the supplier. Individual properties may instead receive water from on-site private wells, surface sources,or from a supplier in an adjoining area. Properties that are not within a service area obtain water from on-site wells and surface sources or, in a limited number of cases,from the supplier in an adjoining area as an "out of district" user. 162 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Infrastructure MAJOR WATER SUPPLIERS by Municipality Municipality Municipal Water Supplier(s) Private Water Supplier(s) Mount Vernon • Mount Vernon C .

Municipal collection systems connect with the county trunk sewers which serve 13 separate sewer districts. However, not all areas within districts are served by public sewers. The southern and central sections of Westchester are served by the County's seven wastewater treatment plants (Blind Brook, Mamaroneck, Port Chester and New Rochelle plants on the Long Island Sound shore and Yonkers, Ossining and Peekskill plants on the Hudson River shore). These seven plants are located where 90% of the Westchester's population resides. The plants are fed by 194 miles of trunk sewers and 40 pump stations. Most areas of the north county watershed towns are dependent on subsurface sewage disposal systems located on each lot or are served by a few locally-based central sewage collection and treatment districts. By land area, approximately one-third of the county is dependent on septic systems. Most of this land is in the Croton watershed in northern Westchester which encompasses five reservoirs that are part of the New York City water supply system. Also located in the watershed are 28 privately and municipally-owned wastewater collection, treatment and disposal systems that discharge 4 million gallons of treated effluent daily. The Charles Point Resource Recovery Facility in Peekskill processes solid waste from the 36 municipalities comprising the Solid Waste District. 166 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Infrastructure County Sewer Treatment Facilities Westchester County, NY Tributary County Year Built Design Flow/ Staffing Pumping District County Treatment Population Trunk Actual Flow Station Size Facility/Area Served Served Sewer BLIND BROOK City of Rye,Town of Rye, 25,700 27 Miles Primary 1962 4.2 MGD(Avg) 19 1 14 sq.miles Town of Harrison,Town Secondary 1985 5 MGD(Design) of North Castle, Westchester County Airport,State University at Purchase MAMARONECK Town&Village of 88,000 2 Miles Original 1931 18.9 MGD(Avg) 31 8 30 sq.miles Mamaroneck,Town of Primary 1965 20.6 MGD(Design) Harrison,City of White Secondary 1993 Plains NEW ROCHELLE City of New Rochelle, 71,000 2 Miles 16.9 MGD(Avg) 52 7 9 sq.miles Village of Larchmont,Rye Primary 1956 13.6 MGD(Design) City,Scarsdale,North Secondary 1982 Castle OSSINING Village of Ossining, 36,100 6 Miles Primary 1981 6.7 MGD(Avg) 34 10 13 sq.miles Portions of Village of Secondary 1982 7.5 MGD(Design) Briarcliff Manor,Portion of Village of Croton-on- Hudson,Portions of Town of Ossining,Portions of Town of Mount Pleasant PEEKSKILL City of Peekskill,Town of 42,800 14 miles Primary 1953 7.2 MGD(Avg) 19 2 19 sq.miles Cortlandt,Shrub Oak, Secondary 1980 10 MGD(Design) Lake Mohegan,Town of Yorktown PORT CHES'T'ER Village of Port Chester, 22,600 0 Secondary 1989 4.6 MGD(Avg) 32 0 2.5 sq.

The County's Department of Environmental Facilities, Division of Solid Waste, is a resource and guide for municipalities to create their own plans for the separation and collection of waste. All municipalities submit annual reports on the volume of materials collected to be recycled and the volume of materials collected for disposal. Businesses and institutions with more than 100 employees, and all Westchester municipalities, are required to have their own solid waste management plans. Violations of the recycling laws can incur fines up to$1,000 per offense. The Material Recovery Facility (MRF) opened in 1992 and its utilization has increased steadily since. The MRF receives conmingled recyclables from 35 municipalities, all members of the Solid Waste District. (The Solid Waste District is a consortium of 36 municipalities and is responsible for handling,transportation and the disposition of solid waste including yard waste and leaves, as well as recyclables.) At the MRF, the materials are separated by the MRF operator who markets various items for the County, such as paper, glass, plastics and metals. In 1996, a banner year, the MRF processed and marketed an average of 240 tons per day - or 64,000 tons per year - which generated income of nearly $3 million. The MRF provides the county with a cost effective method of waste management. The cost per ton for management of recyclables varies according to market conditions, but even under poor circumstances is substantially less than disposal costs at the waste-to-energy- plant. Between public and private efforts,a total of 1.3 million tons of generated waste was collected in 1996. Both residential and nonresidential generators are required to source separate certain items, including newsprint, glass and metal food and beverage containers, some plastics, used motor oil and bulk metals. Westchester County publishes recycling guides for citizens, businesses and municipalities and updates them as recycling programs expand and change to include more items. Outdated phone books,magazines and junk mail as well as empty aerosol cans and aluminum foil recently were added to the list of items acceptable for recycling. Total per person recycling participation at the MRF averaged 165 pounds in 1996. Westchester County residents recycled 37 percent of their garbage, a major step toward achievement of the goal of 40 percent recycling by 1997. Markets for recyclables, once hard to identify, have become so prevalent that the Materials Recovery Facility now is able to choose among many potential buyers. The revenue received goes toward lowering the operating cost for the Solid Waste District. Westchester County sponsors annual Household Chemical Clean-Up Day events at various locations within and around the county for residents to voluntarily bring chemicals for proper disposal. No fee is assessed to individual residents participating at an event, and the program is available to residents countywide. Licensed hazardous waste collection firms are hired to collect, package, transport and dispose of the chemical waste, and funding is provided by the Solid Waste Disposal District. Most properly labeled household chemicals are accepted for disposal, including but not limited to: pesticides, insecticides, and herbicides; paint thinners and solvents; photographic and swimming pool chemicals; automotive fluids like gasoline, antifreeze, and brake fluid; fluorescent light bulbs; rechargeable and button cell batteries; and up to 10 used car tires per household. Materials that are not acceptable include: all types of paint; empty containers; WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK- 1998 169 Infrastructure non-rechargeable batteries; compressed gas cylinders and propane tanks; explosives, ammunition and flares; pharmaceutical and medical wastes; smoke and fire detectors; and materials from commercial and institutional users. Oil and latex paint should be disposed of with household trash in solid form. Motor oil should be taken to service stations or motor oil retail outlets. Vehicle batteries should be taken to any vehicle battery retail outlet. Non- rechargeable batteries should be disposed of in the trash. Information on the disposal of other chemicals, and for the dates and locations of annual Clean-Up Day events may be obtained by calling the County's Household Chemical Info Line at 914-637 - 3037. The County's recycling efforts continue to expand, and each year there is greater participation on the part of municipalities. Increased focus now is directed toward reduction of generated waste, compliance, and the enforcement of the Source Separation Law. Educational efforts are geared toward changing people's buying habits so that they will consciously choose products with less packaging and also select reusable, recyclable items. Westchester's firm commitment and involvement in recycling is well established and aims to save resources and money and preserve the environment.

The county's outstanding educational facilities provide excellence at all levels,from pre-school to post-graduate, and include technical and vocational skills development. Westchester's forty (40) school districts reflect the diversity of the county in many ways, and all share a mutual commitment to excellence and achievement. School districts vary in enrollment size,from smaller village districts to larger urban systems. Expenditures per pupil are substantial throughout the county. Pupil/teacher ratios are kept low, and support personnel and services are extensive. Westchester continues to attract well- qualified professionals to staff its schools. Many teachers are educated at the master's level and beyond and continue to participate in ongoing professional activities. Four Westchester schools were among the 12 in New York to win recognition in the 1994-95 Blue Ribbon Schools Program sponsored by the US Department of Education. Westchester's school districts are in the vanguard of innovative educational concepts and programs. Involvement, commitment and support on the part of teachers, administrators, parents, local business and government leaders have created dynamic and stimulating learning environments to accommodate the plurality of needs and talents in the student population. Within New York State, Westchester students excel in the Regents examinations, pupil evaluation programs and preliminary competency tests. SAT scores in the county exceed state and national averages, and an exceptionally large proportion of students take the exam. Most Westchester high school students go on to college, with some districts reporting close to or 100 percent enrollment. For those students wishing to enter the workforce directly, many vocational programs are offered within local school districts and through the Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES). These programs include Occupational Education, Special Education, Instructional Services, Information Systems and Interscholastic Athletics and Transportation Services. In addition, Westchester County contains several Special Act Districts, which provide unique educational and therapeutic opportunities to students, between the ages of five (5)and twenty-one(21),who have experienced difficulty in previous school settings. Westchester County offers a choice of private elementary and secondary schools as well. Among these are a number of culturally-oriented institutions, such as the German School, the French-American school and Keio High School, a Japanese high school, indications of Westchester's increasingly global population. The county is home to more than twenty post-secondary schools, almost all of which grant degrees. In addition, several business schools offer certificate programs. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 171 Education Libraries Westchester's vast library resources serve the information and recreational needs of its residents as well as academic and business communities. The Westchester County Library System (WLS), organized 35 years ago, is comprised of 38 independent member public libraries (several of these have multiple branches). The WLS maintains on-line catalogs for more than 30 academic and school libraries. In addition to the public libraries, Westchester has 18 academic libraries that permit on-site use by outside users. Many of these libraries house unique collections in literature, art, music or law. There are also a number of smaller, special interest libraries throughout the county , most of which can be accessed by appointment. 172 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Education C O U N.:T. :Y - P - T N A M 24 NORTH SALEM 19 I SOMERS 26 PEEKSKIL 34 n O //-\ LEWISBORO 2 r YORKTOWN _--- 18 m Buchanyn 40 '� -A CORTLANDT \\ 16 Croton-',28 I UN�` BEDFORD \ POUND RIDGE on O \ .udson iKISCO/ 2 NEW CASTLE L25''-\ 7 ..--- OS OS /NG _.---- •.

Quality child care has been a focus of both families and organizations in the Westchester community. Corporations have responded in various ways - from work/family packages as an employee benefit to corporate sponsorship of independent child care centers. Some companies have on- site day care; others have formed consortia to fund and support child care centers where priority slots are allocated to employees and the remainder serve the general population. In addition, several colleges offer child care school programs to serve the needs of student populations. The County of Westchester, as well, actively supports child care services and appropriates funds for a range of programs. Many school districts sponsor after-school centers and some allow for early morning activities to accommodate working parents. The Child Care Council of Westchester The Child Care Council of Westchester is a private, non-profit agency that provides a referral service for parents in need of child care. Trained specialists educate parents on child care options, state regulations governing child care providers and programs, and indicators of quality care. Based on individual needs,families are given referrals to child care providers and programs in Westchester County. The Council also helps low income working parents to access public funding that might be available to help them pay for their child's care. The Child Care Council provides an expanded referral service for Westchester based companies that want to assist their employees in balancing the demands of work and family. Both child and elder care referral services and seminar are available by contract. Some of the companies that have contracted for services with the Child Care Council of Westchester are: Carl Zeiss,Inc. id Castle Oil Corporation 'd Diversified Investment Advisors • EMI Industries ' ' New-York Hospital-Westchester Division Lia' Oxford Health Plans ' ' PepsiCo.,Inc. Yah Philips Laboratories 'd Texaco,Inc. ifai Transamerica Leasing,Inc. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 199 Child Care The Council works with individuals who are interested in providing child care in their home or opening a center-based program. Technical assistance and training is provided throughout the year to facilitate the development of child care resources and enhance the quality of care being offered. The Council also conducts research on family and child care issues for dissemination to policymakers and the community at large. For further information contact the Child Care Council of Westchester, phone 914-761-3456, fax 914-761-1957,or e-mail at CCWNY@aol.com. Types of Child Care Programs The early years are a time of rapid growth and development for children. There will be new ideas to explore, skills to master and many new people to meet. A good early childhood program should nurture children's development on all levels. There is both regulated and non-regulated but legal care in Westchester. Regulated care is required to be licensed or registered by the Department of Social Services. The following types of care are required to be regulated in New York State. Child Care Centers: New York State licensed care for six or more children between the ages of six weeks and 12 years for more than three hours per day,not in a personal residence. Family Child Care: New York State registered care for up to six children in the home of another family for more than three hours per day. Group Family Child Care: New York State licensed care by a provider with an assistant to care for seven to 12 children. School-Age Child Care Program: Programs that provide care for more than six children, for children in Kindergarten through age 12 during non-school hours. Pre-Kindergarten Programs: Part day programs that serve children three and four years of age and are usually located in public schools, supervised by the State Education Department. Summer Day Camps: Programs that offer summer activities, usually for school-age children. Regulated by the Department of Health. 200 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Child Care Non-regulated care includes: Nursery Schools: Part day programs that care for children for less than three hours a day. Programs usually follow the school calendar. Informal Family Child Care: Care for up to two children in addition to the provider's own children, in a provider's home. To be included on the Child Care Council's referral database, these programs must meet minimal health and safety requirements. In-Home Care: Care in a child's home by a person hired specifically for that purpose. Task Force on Child Care A recently-formed Westchester County Child Care Task Force will examine Westchester's child care resources to ensure that child care is available and affordable to all county residents and to explore options to enhance access to this vital service. The twelve-member task force is comprised of government officials, child care providers, parents, school officials, and representatives of the business and not-for-profit communities. It will also examine possible new funding sources, including potential partnerships with the private and not-for-profit sectors.

The variety of cultural offerings ranges from first-class art museums to dinner-theater featuring Broadway shows. Westchester's history can be relived within the context of its many historic sites. Mansions of earlier centuries can be toured, including Philipse Manor Hall, Van Cortlandt Manor and Lyndhurst, belonging to the Gould family. Famous estates of more recent significance also mark Westchester's place in history. Among these is Kykuit, the Rockefeller home and property recently opened to the public. Tourism has become an important element in the local economy. A number of Westchester communities have begun to establish programs and activities to promote tourism,particulary in the Hudson River towns and villages. Because of the abundance of unique historic and cultural assets, there are a number of groups in Westchester active in the preservation of these resources . Many of these historic treasures are officially recognized,registered or otherwise designated by one or more levels of government. The Westchester Arts Council successfully coordinates a broad range of services for artists and arts organizations. Created in 1965, it is a private nonprofit organization committted to providing a culture-friendly environment in Westchester County. The Westchester Arts Council is an umbrella organization that brings the arts to everyone from children to seniors, the Council helps to provide arts education for county schools; cultural opportunities for families, teens, the elderly and the underserved; and support for Westchester artists and community-based organizations. Supported by individual and corporate donations and by grants from foundations and the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA), the Westchester Arts Council is the leading such organization, in terms of funding received,in the entire state. Among their many services, the Westchester Arts Council provides cultural services to schools, supports artists' residencies, offers technical assistance workshops, runs collaborative arts advertisements in the media to increase the visibility of arts offerings and to respond to the demand for cultural information. For more than 30 years, the council has been active in leveraging grants to fund arts organizations and artists and broadening the base of cultural education and is committed to providing a culture friendly environemnt in Westchester County. Arts organizations continue to flourish and enjoy public,private and corporate support. Many partnerships have been formed to promote and leverage the investments of the county's various arts organizations, which include the cooperation of companies such as the AT & T, Texaco, PepsiCo, Bell Atlantic, Fuji Photo Film, USA, Inc., UNISYS, Citibank and Chase Bank. In addition to financial support, in-kind contributions are a valuable source of assistance; the Business Volunteers for the Arts provides consulting services to the arts and is another example of corporate commitment to the arts. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 227 Culture and Tourism A recent report An Economic Impact Study...The Arts at Work in Westchester demonstrates the contributions of the nonprofit arts industry. The report found that in 1995, these nonprofit institutions were a $54.2 million industry that supported 2,047 full-time jobs. Local governments collected $4.5 million and state government $5 million through sales taxes and other tax payments and fees as a result of arts related activities. The study confirms that the arts not only enrich the lives of residents, but generate multiple returns that stimulate economic activity throughout Westchester County. Several areas in Westchester have used the arts to enhance and revitalize downtowns with artists housing and arts activities. The City of Peekskill has encouraged and successfully developed an artists district within its core downtown area. A number of "new media" firms have been attracted to this area where a satellite campus of Westchester Community College that concentrates on traditional graphic and digital arts programs has been established. In the City of Port Chester, the Capitol Incubator, in the Capitol Theater building, provides an innovative and affordable work environment for growing arts, communications and entertainment businesses or organizations. Hotels In addition to gracious accommodations, virtually all major hotels offer a variety of meeting rooms and ancillary services such as concierge and local transportation services to suit business needs. Three extended-stay hotels are in the planning stages in the county. These new hotels will ofer suite accommodations with kitchen amenities plus other types of services to assist visitors. Several popular conference centers are available - the Tarrytown House Executive Conference Center and Arrowwood Resort and Conference Center - each with theater and classroom style meeting facilities, guest rooms, health and athletic conveniences and restaurant/catering amenities. Most hotels offer exercise and fitness centers and are in close proximity to public golf courses and major country clubs. The Westchester County Center, owned and operated by the County Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation, has professional business exhibition facilities including a main hall and a major exhibit hall to accommodate booths. The County Center, a magnificent Art Deco style facility,was renovated to increase meeting and exhibition space, offers an in-house catering facility,and provides state of the art sound and lighting systems. Westchester's rich cultural heritage is the backdrop for a number of architecturally interesting sites which can provide a unique setting for special events. Reid Castle at Manhattanville College and Lyndhurst in Tarrytown are among some of these outstanding facilities which offer accommodations for parties and groups. Further information on travel, accommodations, or tourism activities can be supplied by the Westchester Convention and Visitors Bureau,Ltd., (800) 833 -WCVB. 228 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Culture and Tourism Tourism Offering some of the finest accommodations and scenic historical and cultural attractions in the tri-state area, tourism in Westchester is a revenue-producing industry that benefits the county's businesses and residents. The industry consists of many diversified businesses of varying sizes which service and derive income from the leisure business and convention traveler. Westchester has almost 3,000 businesses and more than 30,000 employees in travel and travel-related industries. Hotel revenues have grown steadily in recent years reaching $138.0 million in 1996. Associated expenditures at restaurants and retail establishments as well as tax revenues also grew as a result of this increase in visitors. Special events held in Westchester County generate considerable income for tourism and related industries. The 1997 PGA Championship was held at Winged Foot Golf Club in Westchester and generated an estimated$80.3 million in economic activity for the county,according to a study conducted for the Westchester Convention and Visitors Bureau. 4 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 229 Culture/Libraries N_____ A----A M C p LI N r Y 0 z,, P u zoz �� I �. p2 NORTH SALEM I .:.16 o 1 �-� l._- C3 ,...13 ' OMERS ,; l 4.4 ,12 ,5 202 \ :.'IW, n 0 I I 35 i1 ,LEWISBORO \y P� SKILL / ;2, 2 \ \ YORKT• N ' ;; 35 �3s \�, B hanam 7 g ,} r;.

Awareness of the presence of architecturally and historically significant buildings, streetscapes and landscapes has been strengthened by Westchester s proximity to New York City. Conferences, workshops and programs sponsored by such groups as the Westchester Preservation League,Historic Hudson Valley,the Preservation League of New York State,the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Westchester County Historical Society also have enhanced this awareness. Tools, techniques and methods by which preservation can be complementary to and integrated with general community concerns such as economic development, open space and central business revitalization are becoming increasingly familiar to both property owners and municipal planning and preservation boards. Within the county, many important culturally and historically significant resources are designated - officially recognized - on one or more of four governmental levels: federal, state, county and local. The protection afforded by such designation varies from level to level. Resources designated through the National Historic Landmark, the National Register or the New York State Register programs are protected from projects that are financed or otherwise assisted by the federal or state government. Listings on the Westchester County Inventory are provided with recognition only. Protection at the municipal level is defined by the local ordinance under which local landmarks are designated.

Prepared by the Westchester County Department of Planning. 232 WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING DATABOOK-1998 Culture and Tourism At the federal level there are two forms of official recognition for sites that meet specific criteria of significance: National Historic Landmark (NHL) designation or listing on the National Register of Historic Places. In Westchester there are currently 16 NHL sites and 136 sites listed on the National Register. All of these are also listed on the New York State Register of Historic Places which has criteria very similar to those of the national programs. The third level of governmental designation in the county is the Westchester County Inventory of Historic Places. This program has resulted in the separate listing of 49 sites on the County Inventory. In addition, all NHL's and National and State Register sites are automatically included in the Inventory. On the local level, 16 Westchester communities have passed some form of protection for resources deemed by the municipality to be significant and worthy of preservation; the type of protection varies from community to community. Westchester municipalities with active, government-appointed, preservation-oriented groups separate from other boards or commissions include Bedford, Katonah, Mamaroneck, New Rochelle, North Castle, North Salem, Ossining Village, Pound Ridge, Rye City and Yonkers. The Village of Pleasantville and the Town of Somers utilize zoning techniques that have historic preservation as a goal but have no separate administering groups. One of the county's earliest historic preservation ordinances, in the Village of Tarrytown, is administered by the Board of Architectural Review.

Business Improvement Districts (BIDS) have become a valuable revitalization tool,particularly in downtowns and central business districts. These self-taxing districts maintain and upgrade business communities in an effort to increase profitability, improve property values,add jobs, and produce revenues. A Business Improvement District (BID) is an organizing and financing mechanism used by property owners and merchants to influence the future of their retail, commercial and industrial areas. The BID is based on state and local law, which permits property owners and merchants to band together to use tax collection powers to assess themselves. In general, the BID creates a special district, similar to a water or sewer improvement district. Rather than absorb the costs of improvements in a municipal budget, the taxing authority assesses all of the properties in the legally-constituted district that directly benefit for their share of the total obligation. Thus,resources are pooled to improve the environment that affects the value of the investments of those with real estate and business interests. The funds are used to purchase supplemental services (e.g., maintenance, sanitation, security, etc. ) and capital improvements (e.g., trees, signage, lighting) beyond those services and improvements provided by the municipality. There are six main categories of benefits to BIDs: •Supplementary government services, such as security personnel and cleaning and maintaining public areas. •Nongovernment services, such as snow removal,marketing,promotion and advertising. •Advocacy, to speak collectively to develop and promote unified positions on issues affecting the local economy. •Cooperative enterprises which allow businesses to engage in joint advertising and purchase of services. •Capital improvements financing which allows BIDS to borrow to pay for streetscape programs. •Research and planning services can be engaged to analyze economic and demographic data, set goals and develop multi-year redevelopment programs. Currently, two municipalities in Westchester--White Plains and Peekskill--have created BIDS in their downtown areas and a number of other municipalities are pursuing their potential. The process of establishing a BID generally consists of several steps. A planning phase involves local outreach and the preparation of a plan.
