Winding Brook Road Bridge Additionally Present: Brett Schneider and Robert Cyruli,Winding Brook Road residents Mr. Altieri reported that along the Town owned bridge located at Winding Brook and Fenimore Road an 8" inch hole in the asphalt has been discovered. Upon further inspection it appears the bridge is in very poor condition. The Board reviewed a memo prepared by Mr. Altieri in which two alternative methods for the repairs were discussed. Estimates of construction are being prepared for future review by the Town Board. Mr. Altieri stated that construction will not be able to begin for six weeks and would take approximately three weeks to complete. ADDED ITEM Public Hearing—Zoning Amendment Supervisor Seligson emphasized that at this evening's Public Hearing it will be important to outline for the residents how this legislation developed and remind residents that this is a Generic Environmental Impact Statement, and not specific to any development. This means that any specific application would be required to meet all SEAR requirements and undergo specific site plan review. Six Month Financial Review Additionally Present:Tony Siligato,Town Comptroller The Town Board reviewed the Mid-Year Financial Report January—June 2013 in detail. New Business Supervisor Seligson stated that the Sustainability Committee met and they reported that the Town's greenhouse gases are down by 50%. Supervisor Seligson also reported that Steve Karell has completed the carbon footprint data. 2 September 18, 2013 Supervisor Seligson met with the Howell Park residents and reported that it was generally a very positive meeting. Supervisor Seligson reported with disappointment that the Town did not receive the Transportation Enhancement Program (TEP) grant the Town had hoped to receive for a round-about on Madison and New Jefferson. With respect to the Westchester Joint Water Works it was reported that the County has not moved forward with analysis on the effects of tapping into Shaft 22, and they appear to be in severe delay mode with respect to moving forward on a solution for UV treatment. Westchester Joint Water Works is discussing whether they should move forward with their own solution, specifically whether they should install smaller UV filters along the water pipes. This could be seen as a proactive step by the Federal Government; an enhancement that would make the Westchester Joint Water Works on the same level as New York City. Mr.Altieri reported that the Ambulance District and the Town are discussing whether to fund renovation of the MEMS Building on North Barry Avenue. Per bond counsel the Town would need to have a financial interest in the building,therefore,a lease would need to be in place. Supervisor Seligson noted receipt of complaints about the placement of generators on properties. This issue is similar to the discussion and subsequent law regarding air conditioning units. Proximity Rule for Conflicts of Interest The Town Board continued their discussion.The Board agreed that a Board Member whose residence falls within the proximity rule for land use application should,at minimum, recuse themselves.Should they wish to speak, they should do so publicly as a resident and not a Board Member. Mr. Maker was asked to do a re-write of the law for discussion. Expansion of Mailing Area for Notification of Certain Land Use Applications Mr.Altieri was asked to look again at software that would determine the number of homes affected versus a distance radius for notification. Update—Energy Service Contract Proposals Mr. Altieri reported that last Friday the Town received four proposals. The Town's consultant has begun the lengthy evaluation process and the Town Board will probably not receive the final evaluation until the end of October. Councilwoman Elkind Eney asked again about the Ice Rink and whether if a decision has not been made in sufficient time then would the Ice Rink be spun off and done separately. Mr. Altieri responded,yes. Supervisor Seligson added that the Sustainability Committee has begun preparing a Sustainability Plan. This will create a bench mark for the Committee to move forward. Update—Strategic Plan-Department Work Plans The Town Board reviewed the templates for the Work Plans so they would be familiar with the format during budget discussion. These plans will outline routine activities as well as special projects and will require quantitative and qualitative metrics in order to evaluate and measure performance. Currently the Department Heads are working on these plans for submission with their Budgets. Mr. Altieri stated that these plans will be very useful in determining how Departments are doing year after year. 3 September 18, 2013 On motion of Councilwoman Katz,seconded by Councilwoman Elkind Eney,the Board unanimously agreed to enter into an Executive Session to discuss collective bargaining with the Firefighters'and a contract with outside counsel to the Land Use Boards. EXECUTIVE SESSION Collective Bargaining with the Firefighters' Union Contract with outside counsel to the Land Use Boards On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney,seconded by Councilwoman Katz the Board unanimously agreed to resume the Regular Meeting.
