WORK SESSION ITEMS
1. Discussion - GovHR Compensation Plan
Joellen Cademartori of GovHR presented the Town Board an overview of the results
of the Town's recent comprehensive compensation study (see attachment A). This
GovHR study was conducted to determine competitive salary rates for Non-
Union/Management staff and to provide a system for internal pay equity.
The GovHR study involved a job evaluation and the development of a classification
system, as well as an in-depth compensation study of comparable communities.
During the job evaluation portion of the study, GovHR looked at 23 positions and
reviewed those positions against nine job factors. Then, GovHR conducted interviews
to develop a classification plan. Next, GovHR completed a benefits survey, which
showed that the Town of Mamaroneck was on par with other local communities when
it came to benefits. The Town Board agreed to discuss implementation at a later time.
See Presentation, Attachment A.

2. Discussion - Governor Hochul's Housing Compact
Town Supervisor Jaine Elkind Eney advised the Town Board of recent counter
proposals, one by the State Senate and one by the State Assembly, with regards to
Governor Hochul's Housing Compact. The Town Board agreed to discuss further at a
later time, once details of changes have been finalized in the State legislature.
3. Discussion - Public Housing Authority Resolution
Town Administrator Meredith Robson introduced the resolution to transfer the Town of
Mamaroneck Public Housing Authority Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8)
to the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal. Once transferred
the State will then determine what local agency will administer the program. The Town
of Mamaroneck Public Housing Choice Voucher Program will still remain a local
program within the County to serve qualified applicants for this voucher program. The
Town Board agreed to pass the resolution later this evening.
4. Discussion - Authorization of Supplemental Agreement #1 — NYSDOT Contract
D040017 Waverly Avenue Bridge Replacement
The Town Administrator Meredith Robson explained this supplemental agreement
with the New York State Department of Transportation which is necessary to amend
the contractual end date based upon the updated project schedule and to authorize
scheduled funding for pending work related to right-of-way acquisition and
construction.
5. Request for Executive Session
Moved by Councilman King, seconded by Councilwoman Katz, the Town Board
entered into Executive Session to discuss the employment history of a
particular individual or individuals, potential litigation, and the leasing of real
property.
Carried

unanimously agreed to resume the Regular Meeting.
Carried
6. Discussion - The Volunteer Firefighter and Volunteer Ambulance Worker Tax
Exemption Law
Town Attorney William Maker Jr. explained this proposed local law to the Town Board,
clarifying the criteria that must be met to qualify under the Volunteer Firefighter and
Volunteer Ambulance Worker Tax Exemption Law. Attorney Maker explained that the
Real Property Tax Law 466-a 1 allows a partial exemption from real estate taxes for
"an enrolled member" of a fire department or an incorporated voluntary ambulance
service. Attorney Maker reviewed the series of requirements to qualify for the partial
exemption. The Town Comptroller estimated the cost for the tax exemption in year 1
to be $17,635.23, if the exemption is set at 10 percent and the requirement is that
Volunteer Firefighters and Volunteer Ambulance workers be active for 2 years (see
Attachment B.) However, the State law requires that Volunteer Firefighters and
Volunteer Ambulance workers be enrolled, not necessarily active, in order to qualify.
The Town Board agreed that $2.29 on average for a homeowner tax increase was an
acceptable price to pay for the tremendous level of firefighting and ambulance service
that we receive in the Town. The Board agreed to set a Public Hearing on the
proposed law for April 4th.

March 15, 2023
7. Discussion - REALM Presentation — See Attachment C.
The members of REALM thanked the Town Board for their comments and feedback,
on the initial presentation of the proposed monument, and the opportunity to make
changes to the design to ensure it fits at the Town Center. REALM visited the Town
Center site many times, reviewing the three possible sites, but settling on the one in
the middle (B). Site B is visible from Route 1 and is also easily accessible for a
wheelchair or stroller from the back of the Town Center. REALM shared that they
intend to use red terracotta clay in parts of the installation, so that it will tie into the
Town Center building. The proposed monument will also tie into the entrance to the
old school, apropos as REALM intends to educate through the monument. REALM
also wants to incorporate the names of all the enslaved, for whom we have names,
that lived here into the monument, and as designed it would provide enough surface
area for that.
The proposed design also includes a bench that reflects the curve of the monument.
The monument will be a place for deep reflection. It might be backlit at night and could
have bigger imagery and/or relief on the back so that it might possibly be visible from
Route 1 as well.
Supervisor Elkind Eney asked about the surface and color of the proposed
monument. REALM responded that the monument would most likely be a concrete
structure with either concrete or ceramic relief. REALM intends to further develop the
design, including expanding on color and surface area after the basis of the
monument is agreed.
REALM then explained that the monument will be quite sculptural. There will be visual
stories, including perhaps names, dates, places, and significant words. The text will
be the names.
Councilman Jeffrey King asked if the monument might be oriented somehow to the
North, pointing out that the University of Virginia Memorial to Enslaved Laborer is
circular in its design but points in the direction of the North Star, which for the
enslaved led to freedom. REALM had not considered a northern orientation and
agreed to look into the idea.
The Town Board and REALM then discussed the educational component.
Councilman King asked whether REALM had discussed the project with Joe Liberti's
OCRA students or the Art Department at Mamaroneck High School. REALM noted
that part of their mission is to include the educational component, so they do intend to
pursue contacts and programs with the Mamaroneck schools.
The Town Board plans to visit the proposed site to review the selected location and
size of the monument, then will report back to REALM. The Town Board are looking
forward to being presented with the specifics of the design once the site and scale
have been approved.
8. IMA with MUFSD and Town of Mamaroneck regarding Love Your Food Grant
The Town Administrator explained that this agreement is necessary as the Town acts
as a pass-through for the Love Your Food grant. This intermunicipal agreement
simply allows the Town to pay the Mamaroneck Union Free School District for the
implementation of the grant program. The Town Board agreed to pass the resolution
later in the evening.
9. Millennium Strategies - Grant Writers
The Town Board requested that Town Administrator Robson check with Millennium
Strategies to see if they would extend the Town's contract on a month-to-month basis
at this time. The Town Board requested to review the contract renewal with
Millennium Strategies at a later date.
Town Board
March 15, 2023
10. Woodard and Curran agreement
Attorney Maker presented the revised proposed agreement with Woodard and
Curran. After Attorney Maker answered several questions regarding the agreement,
the Town Board agreed to authorize the agreement later in the evening.
11. Additions to Regular Meeting Agenda
The Board agreed to add two items to the Affairs of the Town at tonight's meeting: a
Certiorari and an intermunicipal agreement with the Mamaroneck Union Free School
District and Town regarding Love Your Food Grant Monies.
8:00 PM TOWN BOARD REGULAR MEETING

CALL TO ORDER
The Regular Meeting of the Town Board was called to order by Supervisor Elkind Eney at

Supervisor Elkind Eney noted that the Town Board met for a Work Session beginning at five
o'clock this evening in Conference Room C and that it was open to the public.
SUPERVISOR'S REPORT
1. Welcome to the March 15, 2023, meeting of the Town Board of the Town of
Mamaroneck. The Town Board met today for a Work Session here at the Town
Center in Conference Room C starting at 5:00pm, which is open to the Public.
Update on the Governor's Housing Compact: The State Senate and the State
Assembly have each been deliberating on the Governor's proposed budget. They
have presented substantially different versions of the Governor's housing compact to
her. Now it's time for resolution.
Upcoming Events:
On March 19, 2023, the Sound Shore St. Patrick's Day parade will kick off at 1:30
from Mamaroneck Avenue School in the Village of Mamaroneck and proceed along
Mamaroneck Avenue to the Harbor. This is a fun-filled event for children of all ages.
Looking Back:
On March 4, Abby and I attended a coffee with State Senator Shelley Mayer, State
Assemblyman Steve Otis, County Executive George Latimer, and County Legislator
Catherine Parker. The meeting was well attended. They each spoke about issues
they are involved in and then fielded a robust Q and A Session. We are so lucky to
have elected representatives on the State and County level who are so responsive
and available to us.
On March 6, I was asked to participate in the County Executive's weekly press
briefing. I got to speak about my favorite topic...the Town of Mamaroneck!
On March 9, I attended a Mamaroneck Chamber of Commerce Meeting. All of the
members introduced themselves and spoke of their businesses.
Later that evening I, along with members of the Town Board attended a Westchester
Municipal Officials Association monthly meeting which was hosted by the VOM. The
topics: electrifying the NYC fleet, EV programs SmartChargeNY, and PowerReady at
ConEdison. The program was informative and helpful.
On March 11, I attended a community concert at Saint Thomas Episcopal Church.
The group, the Wild Life, was really wonderful. One of the members, Nicole Alifante,
is on our Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee. The place was packed, and
everyone had a great time.

PUBLIC HEARING(S)
There were no Public Hearings.
RESIDENT COMMENTS
Supervisor Elkind Eney asked if anyone in the audience wished to address the Town Board.
Brad Kellogg, of 70 North Chatsworth Avenue, spoke to the Town Board about a fence near
his property line but actually built on Town property. Mr. Kellogg explained that the fence
was built before he purchased his home. His children are 7 and 9, and for safety, Mr. Kellogg
requested that the Town Board allow the fence to remain. Mr. Maker remembered receiving
Mr. Kellogg's email and confirmed that the fence is indeed on the Town's right of way.
Generally, the Town would not approve this request. As the fence was installed before Mr.
Kellogg bought the property, and in addition because there may be a legitimate safety
reason to let the fence remain, Attorney Maker thought the Town Board should consider
allowing the fence to remain.
The Town Supervisor reviewed a survey that Mr. Kellogg presented to the Town Board, and
the Town Supervisor noted that the fence was only one foot past the property line on one
side, but quite a bit beyond on the other side. Councilman King mentioned the
grandfathering in the Town's Zoning laws, noting that that the vast majority of homes would
now not be allowed to be built. Councilman King suggested that perhaps the Board could
'grandfather' in the fence. Supervisor Elkind Eney noted that if the Town needed the fence to
come down in the future, then it would need to be removed within a certain period of time by
the homeowner and at the homeowner's expense. The Town Board agreed to allow the
fence to be 'grandfathered in' with the provision of owner of property to repair the fence as
necessary. The Town Attorney will draft an agreement. Mr. Kellogg thanked the Town Board
and requested that the Town undertake a traffic study of the adjacent intersection, as it is
fairly dangerous.
Next to address the Town Board was Marianne Hardart of the Larchmont Civic Gardens
Association. Ms. Hardart requested an update on the work on the arches. The Town
Administrator agreed to send an update to Ms. Hardart.

with the idea of moving the Town's Public Housing Choice Voucher Program to the
