MEMORANDUM
To:Meredith Robson, Town Administrator
From:PamelaValenza, Assessor
Date:October 19, 2021
Re:Proposed Increase to the Alternative Veterans Exemption, RP 458-afor 2022 Assessment Roll
The County of Westchester recently adopted an increase to the levelsforthe Alternative Veteran’s
Exemption, RPTL section 458-a. The Alternative Veterans exemption offersa limited exemption
from real property taxesfor Town, County and Schoolfor qualified owners who have rendered
military service to the United States during defined periods of war. The Town lawcurrently allows
for a qualifying wartime Veteran’s property to receive an exemptionequal to 15% of its assessed
value, witha cap at$54,000. Veterans who served in a combat theateror combat zone receive an
additional 10%, with a cap at $90,000. Additionally, those veterans who received a service-
connected disability compensation rating receive half (½) of their service-connected disability rating
as a percentage off their assessment, with a cap at$180,000. The newly adopted County level
maximums are $75,000(wartime), $125,000(combat) and $250,000(disability).
TheTownof Mamaroneck has 355Veteransthat benefit from theseexemptions; 63in the Village of
Larchmont, 139 in the Village of Mamaroneck and 153in the Unincorporated Town. The
approximate impactto ourtaxpayersby adopting these new levels would increasethe tax of an
average residential property in theUnincorporated Town by $3.78per year and.52¢per year fora
property located in one of the Villages, for a total town-wide impact of $15,200.
The most recent changesto these specified levels were in 1996 and 2006. Historically,the Town has
always mirrored the County’sadopted Alternative Veteran exemptionlevels.This proposed increase
would appear on the Town’s 2022 assessment roll and impact taxesextended in 2023.

Three concept alternatives were developed, with Alternative B-1 selected as preferred and
recommended for implementation. Alternative B-1 consists of additional pavement striping to
define positioning of legal parking spaces, and installation of additional signage and pavement
striping to increase pedestrian visibility and increase motorists awareness of the crossing point.
Improvements at this intersection will be completed entirely within the Town’s right-of-way, is
consistent with the NYSDOT Pedestrian Safety Action Plan (PSAP), and results in a net loss of one
(1) parking space.
Detailed Design / Construction Document Development
The final submittal (100% complete) will include but is not limited to a set of NYS
Professionally Licensed and Sealed Construction Documents suitable for construction by
Town forces.
o Title Sheet
o General notes, index, legends, and abbreviations
o Table of estimated quantities
o Signing and striping plans and details
Improvements will include:
o Removal of pavement striping depending on existing pavement and striping condition
o Pavement cleaning prior to striping application

SUBJECT: Website Redesign – Mood Board and Template
Based on the information and pictures submitted for the website redesign, the consultants
have provided us with two items: a mood board and a template. Prior to moving forward,
your feedback is requested. These two documents serve as the “bones” of the new
website.
The mood board provides a sample of the artistic foundation. If approved, these would be
the colors used throughout the website. The pictures provide an idea of how the colors
would tie in to the overall feel of the Town. While these pictures are being considered for
the homepage, we have the ability to change them at any time, including after
implementation.
The template is the bare structure of the website and is meant to be very high level. It
shows the general placement for items on the homepage. There are two versions
provided. The first is the version that is the true template in grayscale. The second is an in-
house mockup that provides a better feel for the placement of the items. As you review,
please keep in mind we are not at the step of discussing verbiage. This is simply a proposed
structure for the placement of key content.

Re: Proposed amendment of §192 of the Town Code
---------------------------
In the course of reviewing applications for both residential site plan approval and
wetlands and watercourse permits, the Planning Board has recently encountered a
number of applications seeking to locate a swimming pool in close proximity to
protected wetlands and watercourses within the boundaries of the Town.
In connection with its consideration of those applications, the Planning Board - -in
consultation with and relying upon the professional staff of the Town - - has made
findings that placement of swimming pools that utilize toxic chemicals to sanitize pool
water in close proximity to wetlands and watercourses holds the potential for creating
unique and serious hazards to environmentally-fragile habitats that are required to be
protected under Chapter 114 of the Town Code entitled “Wetlands and Watercourses.”
A number of express conditions were drafted initially to address these particular
hazards to wetlands and watercourses. Most of the conditions center upon
requirements that would be imposed upon applicants to maintain their pool properly and
to discharge wastewater in a manner that would not harm the surrounding environment.
In reviewing the proposed conditions, however, the Planning Board realized that the
proposed conditions have more general applicability, i.e., they should apply to all
swimming pool applications that come before the Planning Board. Accordingly, on
recent applications, the Planning Board has imposed conditions on its approval of
swimming pools,whether or not they are located near a wetland or watercourse.
Applicants have accepted these additional conditions and they have been made part of
the approval resolutions. It is recognized that applications for swimming pools that
come before the Planning Board represent only a small subset of the pool applications
processed by the Buildings Department pursuant to § 192 of the Town Code.
In connection with the Planning Board’s review of § 192 of the Town Code, we have
worked closely with Richard Polcari, the Town’s Building Inspector, Robert Wasp, the
Town’s Engineer, Elizabeth Aitchison, the Town’s Environmental Planner, Anthony
Oliveri, the Town’s Consulting Engineer, and Lisa Hochman, Counsel to the Planning
Board.
The purpose of the review was to seek a more comprehensive regulation of swimming
pools within the Town, without regard to whether the pool application comes before the
Planning Board or not. The Planning Board identified a limited number of changesthat,
if adopted (1) would address issues that are not expressly covered by existing
regulations, (2) are specifically aimed at protecting the environment of the Town, (3) are
reasonable and would not place an undue burden onan applicant seeking a pool
construction permit, and(4) represent best practices that would benefit residents of the
Town generally.
Accordingly, the Planning Board recommends consideration and adoption by the Town
Board of the following amendments (Items labeled 1-3) to the Town Code of the Town
of Mamaroneck:
- - - - - -
Current Title:
192-5. Design and Construction Standards
Proposed amendment:
1. The title of § 192-5 shall be amended to read: “Design, construction,
maintenance and wastewater-discharge standards;”
Current Subsection H:
H. Disposition of wastewater. All wastewater shall be discharged into
a public storm drain or sanitary sewer. Where wastewater cannot
be disposed of because of the lack of the above-mentioned facilities,
it shall be disposed of by means of dry well or series of wells,
provided that such wastewater will not overflow in any instance onto
abutting property or flood the existing leaching fields of a septic tank
system.
\[Amended 7-17-1996 by L.L. No. 14-1996\]
Proposed Amendment:
2. Subsection H of §192-5 shall be amended in its entirety to read: “Disposition of
wastewater. All wastewater from a swimming pool shall be discharged in a
manner to protect the environment (including, without limitation, the protection of
any adjacent wetlands or watercourses) from harmful chemicals and other forms
of contamination. In the design of swimming pools, first preference shall be
given to the discharge of wastewater into a sanitary sewer. If a sanitary sewer is
not available, wastewater shall be discharged into a public storm drain. If neither
a sanitary sewer nor public storm drain is available, wastewater shall be
discharged into a dry well or series of dry wells of sufficient capacity. Finally, if
none of the foregoing options are available or feasible, with the prior approval of
the Town Engineer, discharge is permitted onto the pool owner’s property
immediately adjacent to the pool, provided (a) such discharge point is not within
250 feet of a wetland or watercourse and (b) such discharge is not under site
conditions or other circumstances that would require, if it were a public pool,
issuance of a State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit.
On-site discharge of wastewater shall be undertaken at a rate and in a manner to
reduce soil erosion, including, as appropriate, through use of an energy
dissipation device designed for such purpose. In lieu of on-site discharge,
wastewater may be discharged into an appropriate tank vessel for handling,
transport and disposal off-site by a licensed waste hauler. Without regard to the
method of discharge and removal, in no instance may wastewater be permitted
to flow onto a wetland or watercourse, onto existing leaching fields of a septic
tank system, into a street (either directly or indirectly) or onto any other property.
Pool water to be discharged (other than into a tanker vessel) shall be tested prior
to discharge and have a pH level between 6.0 and 9.0 prior to discharge. If
chlorine is used for sterilization, the chlorine level of the water to be discharged
shall be tested prior to discharge and be less than or equal to 0.1 ppm (parts per
million) and not cause foaming, discoloration or other degradation of the
receiving waters.”
Current Subsection I:
I.Filtering, sterilizing and auxiliary equipment. Filtering, sterilizing
and auxiliary equipment shall be adequate to maintain the
sanitary quality of pool water during each period the pool is in
use. Equipment containing gases or disinfectants capable of
giving off irritating, toxic or flammable fumes shall be located in
ventilated rooms or structures. All rooms or structures shall be
well lighted and equipped with safeguards in case of chlorine
leaks. All equipment shall be so constructed or housed so that it
may be used without causing any noise or disturbance to persons
residing adjacent to or near the pool.
Proposed amendment:
3. Subsection I of §192-5 shall be amended to read in its entirety: “Filtering,
sterilizing and auxiliary equipment; Filtering and sterilizing procedures. Filtering,
sterilizing and auxiliary equipment shall be a type of re-circulating, closed filter
system approved by the Building Inspector, Town Engineer or other duly-
appointed representative of any other state or local regulatory body with
jurisdiction, as applicable, and adequate to maintain the sanitary quality of pool
water during each period the pool is in use. Chemicals for disinfecting pools and
any other pool-related chemicals capable of giving off irritating, toxic or
flammable fumes shall be stored in sealed containers. Pool filters shall be
cleaned and organic waste removed in a manner that avoids any contamination
of the property immediately adjacent to the swimming pool or of any abutting
property, including, if applicable, any wetland or watercourse. All equipment
shall be constructed or housed in a manner to minimize any noise or disturbance
to persons residing on properties adjacent to the pool to the greatest extent
practicable.”
