BOSTON POST ROAD, MAMARONECK, NEW YORK PRESENT: Supervisor Nancy Seligson Councilman Ernest C. Odierna Councilwoman Abby Katz Councilwoman Jaine Elkind Eney Councilman Thomas A. Murphy ALSO PRESENT: Christina Battalia, Town Clerk Stephen V. Altieri, Town Administrator William Maker, Jr., Town Attorney CALL TO ORDER - WORK SESSION On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney, seconded by Councilwoman Katz, the Work Session was unanimously opened at 5:00PM. TAKEN OUT OF ORDER Proposed Village of Mamaroneck Local Law-Affordable Housing Additionally Present: Anna Danoy, Director of Community Services and Housing The Town Board discussed the proposed legislation by the Village of Mamaroneck, noting that it places greater responsibility upon the Town’s Section 8 Office with respect to income certification and eligibility of applicants for affordable housing units. They heard from Ms. Danoy with respect to the laws effect on her office. Mr. Altieri and Ms. Danoy met with Village of Mamaroneck officials to address concerns and propose changes. It was stated that the new draft legislation seems to shift a considerable amount of work back to the developer/building manager/landlord. The Town Board heard from Ms. Danoy that her office would be able to handle the current additional workload, but should the number of units rise significantly then a future discussion of a possible IMA should be addressed. Supervisor Seligson stated that the Town should have a draft IMA in place before it could be an issue of needing one. Sanitary Sewer Primer The Town Board put off a full ‘primer’ on the sewer and sanitary system in order to discuss a more immediate, but relevant, memorandum from Robert Funicello, Environmental Project Director for Westchester County. The memo dated April 1, 2014 is Regarding: Long Island Sound Flow Monitoring Report and need for Municipalities in the County’s Long Island Sound Sewer Districts to develop sewer evaluation programs by July 1, 2014. The memo addresses a number of items including the County Sewer Act, a meeting with LISWIC on July 27, 2012, the Long Island Sound Flow Monitoring Report, a 2008 Order on Consent between the County and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, and the time lime for implementing the Consent Order. The first deadline for the Town to address is July 1, 2014. Supervisor Seligson gave historical context to the memo by stating that the intent for the sewer and storm water systems is for them to be separate pipe systems, but because these two systems are so old there is an issue with the systems’ water mingling called inflow and infiltration. This has been a County issue for many years. The County helped the municipalities begin to address it in 1998. The Mamaroneck and New Rochelle sewage treatment plants have had major renovations to improve effluent going into Long Island Sound. These large repairs have been the reason for higher County sewer taxes in the New Rochelle and Mamaroneck Sewer Districts. When it rains the sewage treatment plants are overwhelmed with excess water from infiltration of storm water. Overflow Retention Facilities (ORFs) in Larchmont and New Rochelle hold a certain amount of that excess until they can hold no more and then bypass discharge into the Sound. The County is under a consent order from NYS DEC to close down the bypass discharge from the ORFs. There is great concern that without 1 June 4, 2014 eliminating the inflow and infiltration of storm water into the sewer pipes, the sewage will back up into the communities if the bypass discharge is closed. The County installed flow meters at the trunk lines to determine the sewage flow from municipalities. It was determined that the municipalities are over the maximum of 150 th gallons per capita per day. Out of 11 municipalities over the maximum level, the Town is 8. The Town is currently working with the City of New Rochelle, Pelham Manor, and the Village of Larchmont to create a system evaluation and implementation mechanism. Supervisor Seligson, Mr. Altieri, and officials from the three other municipalities will be meeting with the County and NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation to discuss. Supervisor Seligson emphasized that addressing the greatest problem areas as a group will provide the best bang for the buck. Mr. Altieri added that the best alternative is for the County to take over the sewer system, as this is a much better way to handle the problems. Property Tax Freeze Legislation The Town Board reviewed a memo from Mr. Altieri dated May 30, 2014 outlining the latest information regarding the Property Tax Freeze legislation. Mr. Altieri added that the information is changing regularly and he will keep the Board apprised. 2015 Budget Process Mr. Altieri stated that on the regular agenda this evening is the adoption of the 2015 Budget Calendar. At the upcoming Department Head meeting the Department Heads will receive their worksheets, and will be asked to provide on a conceptual basis, a budget with a 1.6 % increase. They will provide whether that means a change in services, and if so, what would those changes in services be: that will be the basis for beginning discussions. New Business Supervisor Seligson stated that she was contacted by the League of Woman Voters about the Town contributing $100.00 toward a tree to be planted in recognition of Elizabeth Radow. CALL TO ORDER - REGULAR MEETING The Regular Meeting of the Town Board was called to order by Supervisor Seligson at 8:00 PM, she then pointed out the location of the exits. Supervisor Seligson noted that the Town Board met for a worksession beginning at 5:00 o’clock this evening, adding this is an open meeting that all residents’ are welcomed to attend. PUBLIC HEARING – “Residential parking system for(a) Washington Square, (b) a section of North Chatsworth Avenue, (c) New Jefferson Street, (d) Old Jefferson Street and (e) Murray Avenue between Myrtle Boulevard and Leafy Lane” Law. The following Notice of Public Hearing is entered into the record as follows: NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING LEGAL NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that pursuant to Section 130 of the Town Law of the State of New York, and pursuant to a resolution of the Mamaroneck Town Board adopted on May 7, 2014 a Public Hearing will be held on Wednesday, June 4, 2014 at 8:00 PM or as soon thereafter as is possible at the Town Center, 740 W. Boston Post Road, Mamaroneck, New York to consider: “Residential parking system for(a) Washington Square, (b) a section of North Chatsworth Avenue, 2 June 4, 2014 (c) New Jefferson Street, (d) Old Jefferson Street and (e) Murray Avenue between Myrtle Boulevard and Leafy Lane” Law. Purpose: Washington Square, North Chatsworth Avenue, New Jefferson Street, Old Jefferson Street and Murray Avenue are public streets in the Town of Mamaroneck. Washington Square, New Jefferson Street, Old Jefferson Street, the section of North Chatsworth Avenue between Myrtle Boulevard and the northern boundaries of the lots on the opposite side of the street improved with the buildings known by the postal addresses of 35 North Chatsworth Avenue and 40 North Chatsworth Avenue and the section of Murray Avenue between Myrtle Boulevard and Leafy Lane (“Residential Parking Area”) have been developed with multi-family buildings, which either do not provide off-street parking or have insufficient off-street parking to accommodate vehicles owned or leased by their residents. These streets lie near the Larchmont train station and one of the Town’s commercial districts. Parking on these streets by commuters and by customers and employees of the businesses in the nearby commercial district has resulted in frequent occasions when persons living in the Residential Parking Area cannot find parking in the vicinity of their apartments. To alleviate that problem, the Town Board requested the New York State Legislature to pass special legislation creating a residential parking system for certain public streets within the Town, including the Residential Parking Area. Special legislation has been enacted in the past for other communities in Westchester, including sections of the Towns of Eastchester and Harrison, the Cities of Peekskill and Rye, the Villages of Bronxville, Irvington, Mount Kisco, Pelham, Tarrytown and Tuckahoe as well as other municipalities throughout the State of New York. The Legislature granted the Town Board’s request by enacting section 1662-d of the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law. This section authorizes the Town Board to adopt a residential parking permit system for the Residential Parking Area. By this local law, the Town Board is exercising the authority granted to it. The full text of this Amendment is stated below and can also be examined and copies obtained at the Town Clerk's office during regular hours, Monday - Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, In June, July and August until 4:00 PM at 740 W. Boston Post Road Mamaroneck, New York PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that at the Public Hearing all persons interested will be given an opportunity to be heard and that all persons are invited to submit written comments at or prior thereto. BY ORDER OF THE TOWN BOARD OF THE TOWN OF MAMARONECK CHRISTINA BATTALIA TOWN CLERK Published: May 14, 2014 Supervisor Seligson had the following Opening Remarks: The purpose of the meeting tonight is to hear from town residents about the proposed permit parking regulations. The town has received over 40 emails, phone calls and letters both in support of the law and opposed to it for the past few months, especially since this public hearing was announced. The board welcomes the feedback and that which it is about to hear. There are three things that could occur tonight in regard to the legislation. The Board could vote to accept it, modify it or decline to vote. I don’t think the Board intends to vote tonight because the board will use this feedback to determine the next steps to best serve all the residents of the neighborhood. To understand how we arrived at this proposed legislation I would like to provide background of the steps taken to craft this statute. The Town has been addressing Washington Square parking issues for many years and has made many attempts to alleviate the parking problems to help residents in the area. The Town created a Parking 3 June 4, 2014 Committee around 2004 requested NYS to pass enabling legislation to allow for resident permit parking in the area around 2005, created a Parking Taskforce, conducted a parking survey, and reconstituted the Parking Committee in 2012. The Town required the developer of the Cambium apartment project to build a parking facility on Myrtle Blvd. After the parking deck on Myrtle Blvd was built, the parking problems in the area seemed ameliorated. The Town received very few complaints. The State finally passed the enabling legislation in 2007. As of 2007, there no longer seemed to be the need for resident permit parking. In 2013 a few residents approached the Town to voice serious concerns with parking problems facing the Washington Square area. They asked the Town to reconsider passing legislation to enact resident permit parking. The Town Board discussed the idea of proposed legislation at Town Board work sessions which are open meetings and open to the public. The Town Board then referred the matter to the appropriate Town Committee, in this case the Traffic Committee. The Traffic Committee first discussed the resident permit system at its public meeting on January 15, 2014 meeting. There were approximately 50 residents present and all but one appeared to be in support of a resident permit system. The traffic committee held a work session meeting on February 14 to discuss the parameters of a permit system and came up with what they believed was a workable model based on the Eastchester system. This system allows the permit holders to park for lengths of time which exceed the limits set for non-permit holders. The state legislation calls for a minimum of 15% non-permit spots but having all spots available, although some with time restrictions would fulfill this obligation. At the regular traffic meeting held on February 19, the committee presented its initial recommendations regarding the permit system. A much smaller number of residents were present and they indicated that they wanted the system implemented 24/7 as opposed to the weekday-only option that was presented. Following this meeting, Town Attorney Bill Maker drafted a statute for the proposed law. This was reviewed in a meeting on March 21 with The Town Supervisor, Town Administrator Steve Altieri, Traffic Committee Chair Doris Block, and Councilwoman and TB Liaison to the Traffic Committee, Abby Katz. The Town Board discussed the proposal at its work sessions on February 26, April 23, and May 7. At these meetings the discussions focused on the problems that such legislation would create for the various types of visitors to the area. The legislation has made provisions for home health care aides. The need for a visitor pass system needs to be balanced against the possible abuses that can arise from such a system. The town board requested that the draft be modified to eliminate the overnight parking restrictions and retain the current hours of three-hour parking which is weekdays from 9-5. This change was made to accommodate the overnight guests of residents of the area. The goal of this system is to create more parking opportunities for the residents of the area buildings. There currently are three hour parking restrictions in place but they are enforced sporadically. The hope is that this resident permit system would provide a mechanism which would allow for the enforcement of the existing regulations in a manner that would exclude the residents from receiving tickets. The highlights of the proposed law are on the slides on the screens. I’m going to ask Bill Maker, the Town Attorney to review the slides and then we will move to the public comment period. Bill Maker… On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney, seconded by Councilwoman Katz , the Public Hearing was unanimously opened. Since there are many people here tonight who would like to speak and we would like to give everyone a chance to speak who wants to, I will ask everyone to talk for only 2 minutes. I ask that you address me and not others in the room. We want to get your comments for the record. Please try not to repeat at length points that have already been made. You can simply state that you agree with a certain point. I also ask that you speak respectfully. Since there are so many people who wish to speak we will not be able to respond to your comments tonight, but please feel assured that we will capture them tonight and discuss them at a future meeting. 4 June 4, 2014 Sarah Grabel, 2 Washington Sq., Has nanny that requires parking from 8 AM- 7 PM.
