WORK SESSION ITEMS
1. Discussion - 2024 Budget
Administrator Meredith Robson introduced the budget and reviewed all of the changes
that are being considered for the adopted budget. (See list of Preliminary Budget
Changes Reducing the Tax Levy on Attachment A, page 4.) Administrator Robson
highlighted that the Town has just received the new medical insurance rates from
New York State including the retiree MediPrime rate which increased 18 to 25%; the
regular family medical insurance rate which increased 9%; and the rate for singles
which increased 10%. Comptroller Tracy Yogman went through various Tax
Scenarios (Attachment A, page 1). Then, Comptroller Yogman presented the same
Tax Scenarios but reviewed various outcomes utilizing fund balance instead
(Attachment A, page 2).
Councilmember Nichinsky commented that she is not comfortable with how
conservative the budget is and would prefer that the tax rate increase remains below
6%. Administrator Robson pointed out that the largest part of the increase is driven
substantially by the cost of litigation of $244,000. Comptroller Yogman noted that the
other main driver of the increase in tax rate is salaries and benefits.
Councilman King asked if Moody's had recommended that the Town maintain a
certain percentage of fund balance. Supervisor Elkind Eney responded that she
believes Moody's is comfortable with where the Town is currently. Comptroller
Yogman theorized that Moody's may be more concerned about whether the Town

maintains its upward trend in debt. Supervisor Elkind Eney added that Moody's also
seems to look at whether or not the Town can raise taxes to pay for necessary capital
improvements as well as what percentage of Townspeople actually pay their taxes.
Then, the Board discussed how the last major changes to the Town's tax rate took
effect right after the big recession.
Councilwoman Katz reiterated that the Town is doing so much with the taxpayers'
money. Administrator Robson agreed and then reviewed many of the capital projects
that are currently underway in the community. Administrator Robson suggested that
the Town may be doing more than other communities that are not raising taxes,
noting that we are taking care of and investing in our community. The Town's roads,
sewers, and equipment are all well maintained and in good shape, stated
Administrator Robson.
Comptroller Yogman then calculated that it would take $30,000 from the general fund
balance to reduce to a 5.99% tax rate. The Board discussed further and requested to
review a scenario that would achieve a 5.99% tax rate at their next meeting.
See Attachment A.
2. Discussion - Consolidated Fee Schedule 2024 - Town Code, Chapter A250
Administrator Robson reviewed the few minor additions and changes to the 2024 fee
schedule.
3. Discussion - Memorandum of Understanding - County Clerk's Westchester
Records Online (WRO)
Administrator Robson noted that this memorandum of understanding is the same as
that done for 2023.
4. Discussion - Acceptance of Donation to the Town of Mamaroneck - Virginia
McGuire Foundation
Administrator Robson explained that Ralph Engel has garnered the Town $50,000 for
the planting of one hundred trees along Town streets, and another $5,000 for ten
trees to be planted on Town property. The cost numbers estimated for the donation
were garnered from Larchmont Nurseries. Mr. Engel wants the trees planted by
spring. The Board had many questions about the project and discussed several
barriers to the planting of the trees in the Town by spring. Supervisor Elkind Eney and
Administrator Robson will discuss the donation further with Mr. Engel and plan to
discuss it again with the Board at the December 20th meeting. The Board is very
appreciative of this donation and would like to work with Mr. Engel to make it work.
5. Discussion - Management and Non-Union 2024 Salaries
As the Board had discussed this at length at meetings earlier in the year, they did not
discuss it further at this meeting.
6. Executive Session
Moved by Councilwoman Fiddelman, seconded by Councilman King, the Town
Board agreed to enter into Executive Session to discuss the employment
history of a particular individual as well as litigation with Westchester Joint
Water Works.
Carried
Moved by Councilman King, seconded by Councilwoman Nichinsky, the Town

7. Updates
Supervisor Elkind Eney presented that she had garnered a $225,000 BRIC (Building
Resilient Infrastructure and Communities) grant for the Town which will make up the
$67,000 needed for completion of the drainage study and there will be extra money
that can be used for design of the solutions.
In addition, Supervisor Elkind Eney mentioned that since Westchester County is
planning to pave Murray Avenue, the Supervisor has requested an additional
$500,000, for drainage repair while Murray Avenue is open, from County Executive
George Latimer and County Legislator Catherine Parker. County Executive George
Latimer and County Legislator Catherine Parker have put the funding in the County's
capital budget and will confirm to the Town shortly.
Lastly, Supervisor Elkind Eney mentioned that the owners of the BLD Diner property
want to build a thirty-two-unit, four story building on their property. The Board
discussed that the owner would be required to include ten percent affordable housing.
Councilmember Nichinsky mentioned the Housing Authority and reviewed some
issues related to future rent collection.

SUPERVISOR'S REPORT
Welcome to the December 6, 2023, meeting of the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck.
The Town Board met today for a Work Session in Conference Room A, starting at 5:00pm,
which is open to the Public.
On December 1 , I, along with Town Administrator Meredith Robson and Town Engineer
Robert Wasp had the pleasure of attending the Westchester County Senior Hall of Fame
Awards Luncheon to celebrate the induction of none-other than our own Ralph Engel. There
are no words to describe how much time over many years that Ralph has spent in service to
our community, from his service as chair of the Planning Board to his service on the Comp
Plan steering Committee to his service on improvements to the Senior Center and safety
improvements in the Washington Square area, and so much more... Those of us who know
him know how meticulous and persistent he is, but it is always in the best interest of the
community. We are lucky to have him in our community.
On December 4, we attended the swearing in of the new Mayor of the Village of
Mamaroneck, Sharon Torres, and trustee Nora Lucas to another term on the VOM Board;
then we raced down the Boston Post Road (obeying the speed limit, of course) to attend the
swearing in of Village of Larchmont trustees Dana Post and Brigid Brennan. We wish them
all luck and look forward to working with all of them.
The Town of Mamaroneck Fire Department (TMFD) is having a drive-thru Toy Drive, this
Saturday, Dec. 9th from 10am — 2pm at TMFD Headquarters at 205 Weaver Street, in the
back parking lot. There will be giveaways, fire trucks and some holiday cheer. Please drop
off an unwrapped toy. (If cannot make that date, can drop off toys anytime at lobby of
Firehouse through Sunday, Dec. 17th )
Councilman King will have some more events he will mention a bit later.
Town Board
December 6, 2023
I want to wish those who celebrate a Happy Chanukkah, which starts tomorrow evening!

BY ORDER OF THE TOWN BOARD
OF THE TOWN OF MAMARONECK
Published November 24, 2023
1. 2024 Preliminary Budget
Moved by Councilwoman Fiddelman, seconded by Councilwoman Nichinsky
the Public Hearing was unanimously opened.
Carried
Administrator Robson introduced the preliminary budget, then Comptroller Yogman
presented the 2024 Town Budget summary verses 2023, see Attachment B, page 8.
Administrator Robson presented the Fund Balance, noting the use of $1 .8 for capital
and $1 .19 for operating. Administrator Robson also reviewed the history of the Town's
fund balance, see Attachment B, page 14. Comptroller Yogman stressed the need to
maintain a certain level of fund balance noting that taxes are collected in April, and we
must pay both the school district and County the full measure of taxes they are owed
regardless of whether the full measure of taxes are collected or not. We need money
to operate until our own Town taxes are collected in April. A healthy fund balance
permits us to do this without having to borrow short-term.
Supervisor Elkind Eney thanked both Administrator Robson and Comptroller Yogman
for their hard work reviewing the budget numbers and considering the Town's
residents and safety. The Town Board thanked them both as well and mentioned the
robust discussions they had held about the budget during their work sessions in the
past few months. Then, the Town Supervisor asked if there was anyone in the
audience that wished to comment.
Town Board
December 6, 2023
Ms. Anna Shofat of 2 Colonial Lane thanked the Town Board for moving the
crosswalk on Colonial Lane to an improved location and also for adding the stantions.
Ms. Shofat was excited to see the importance of the goal of maintaining residents'
safety in the Town Budget. Ms. Shofat then asked what plans were included to
improve pedestrian safety in the Town and specifically around Murray Avenue School.
Administrator Robson reviewed several of the safety improvements included in the
2024 capital budget, noting that most projects have been initiated in the Traffic
Committee. Comptroller Yogman recapped several of the capital improvement
projects for 2024, including the Rockland Avenue Bridge, sidewalk improvements in
various areas, a new traffic light at the intersection of Palmer Avenue and Richbell
Road, a crosswalk on New Jefferson Street, crosswalk improvements at Chatsworth
Avenue, and a sidewalk on Weaver Street from Sheldrake to Murray Avenue.
Ms. Shofat then asked if there was anything else specifically around Murray Avenue
School that was included for 2024. Administrator Robson mentioned that we are
applying for another grant to add sidewalks to Colonial Avenue. With regards to curb
extensions and speed humps, Administrator Robson noted that the Town is
developing a policy for speed humps and curb extensions in order to review their
implementation consistently throughout the Town. There will be concrete criteria or
standards for when and where they go into place and when they don't, which should
hopefully be developed in the next few months. There was a discussion about the
traffic speed analysis recently completed in the area, and Administrator Robson said
that she would send the complete analysis over to Ms. Shofat.
Ms. Shofat believes that the speed limit, which is 30 miles per hour on Colonial, is
simply too high. Ms. Shofat said that cars are still rolling through the stop sign and
there is a lot of bad driving behavior. She would advise a 15 mile per hour speed limit
in the area, where cars are parked on both sides of the street and there are no
sidewalks. She stressed that leaving it up to drivers is not appropriate or working. The
issue is not yet fixed. The area residents will continue to document and push for
signage and parking restrictions. Ms. Shofat noted that there are now two large
construction projects going on Colonial, so the situation is even worse.
The Town Board stated that the Traffic Committee is the most appropriate forum to
continue to discuss the situation. The Town will continue to monitor change now with
the revised crosswalk. The Town plans to install a bump out in late summer possibly
and will monitor the effect of that as well. With signage listed for Daymon Terrace,
changes to Perry crosswalk, and a possible extension of the sidewalk more on
Weaver Street/near Daymon, the Town Board suggested waiting to monitor
implementation and then see how well these changes are working.
See Attachment B.
Mr. Michael Gottfried was the next resident to comment on the preliminary budget.
First, Mr. Gottried thanked Supervisor Elkind Eney, Councilmember Fiddelman and
soon-to-be-Councilmember Nambiar who came to the Village of Larchmont to support
their organizational meeting on Monday. Next Mr. Gottfried thanked Comptroller
Yogman for answering his questions courteously and promptly, adding that
Comptroller Yogman is amazing and has his utmost respect. Then, Mr. Gottried
passed out and read the attached 'Public Comment to the Mamaroneck Town Budget
for 2024'.
See Attachment C.
Supervisor Elkind Eney then asked if there was anyone else in the audience that
wished to comment on the preliminary Town budget for 2024 and there was none.

In re: Public Comment to the Mamaroneck Town Budget for 2024
To:The Members of the Mamaroneck Town Council
Reference is made to the 2024 budgets(together,the"2024 Town Budget")for the nine Town
funds,which provide services to families in the Unincorporated Area of the Town,the Village of
Mamaroneck,and the Village of Larchmont.
"What's the headline of the 2024 Town Budget:"
Sustainability.Not the sustainability of the environment kind,but rather the
sustainability of living in Larchmont and Mamaroneck. A$60,000 salary is
required just to pay all the property tax on the average house,and the Town part is
going up by 4.87%. Villagers are getting socked again by allocations of Town
costs they have to pay along with similar costs they pay in their village taxes.
Whenever a taxpayer rises to ask a question of this body,there are a plethora of rules
invoked which have the effect of reducing public discourse. "Five minutes,""no
speeches," "Put your questions in writing and you will get an answer,"which doesn't
come in time. And so,a$53 million annual budget that sports a 4.87%increase is borne
with little taxpayer input and little discussion about the growing burden that homeowners
in our tri-municipal community are facing from all levels of government.
Forgive me for saying this poorly,but it seems as though our leaders have deafened
themselves to the fact that the average taxpayer has to earn an amount that is double the
minimum wage just to pay the property taxes on the average home in our community.
Add on the interest costs which have climbed immensely in 2023,utilities,home repair
costs,home owners and other insurances school,vehicle and other costs,and there's no
wonder there is a growing level of food insecurity in parts of this community.
Reading the budget,a citizen might come away with the impression that all's good in
Larchmont and Mamaroneck because the average price of our homes increased a
1
Town Board

whopping 9%. "What we are doing must be working,because home prices went up."
And no one should deny that the Town provides a wide array of valuable services or that
the fine men and women who provide police and fire protection,sanitation,public works
and general services are honorable people who deserve our respect and appreciation.
So we pay the cost. And we fancifully continue thinking"home prices will increase
forever,"but we all know deep down that they don't.And while a growing tax base helps
insulate our leaders from criticism that comes from overspending,it doesn't help the
taxpayers who are on fixed incomes or who lost their job or who chose to get a variable
rate mortgage a few years back to be able to afford to live in our community and send
their children to our fabulous schools. And then if the assessment roll goes down,heaven
forbid,the tax levy increases that were approved in the heady days don't go down and we
will get a huge spike in the tax rate,not just the tax levy. But alas,for many in our
community,it's a hobson's choice----take it or leave it,or may I say leave.
What are the struggling members of this community entitled to? Do they have the option
of choosing leaders who will govern with an austere command? No,because we don't do
contested elections in the Town. As such,there's no opportunity for real discourse about
the ideal priorities for our tri-municipal community.And then we come to nights like
these,where the public is invited to comment on the budget under the fear of a five
minute timer. Who can speak to you about the complex issues of fund balance use or
thorny legal and accounting questions surrounding the effect of interfund allocations
between funds and districts in five minutes? Lord knows I can't.
And then there's the question about the data that is used,mostly is it possible to get an
apples-to-apples comparison or do we have to draw inferences that may or may not be
relevant? Let me give you an example. In years past,some of you heard me kvetch
about the level of fund balance projected to remain at year end and heard me urge you to
consider unrestricted fund balance as"taxes your homeowners have overpaid"and not a
"no cost no worries funding source." I asked you to sharpen your pencils and re-examine
the practice of conservative budgeting,where revenue is systemically under-budgeted
and appropriations projected with a bent to err on the side of caution,all in the name of
fiscal prudence and responsibility. All the while,these practices tax your citizens more

than necessary. I suspect that no one caught the auditors report for the period ending
December 2022. Allow me to repeat their keynote summary:
• As of the close of the current year,the Town's governmental funds reported combined
ending fund balances of$39,493,874,an increase of$5,076,365 from the prior year.The
increase in fund balance is primarily the result of an increase in real property taxes,
sales tax and Federal aid as well as various expense savings. (emphasis supplied).
• At the end of the current year,the total fund balance for the General Fund was$10,054,861
or 76%of total General Fund expenditures and other financing uses for 2022 Total
fund balance for the Town Outside Villages Fund was$6,878,876 or 42%of total fund
expenditures and other financing uses for 2022.
• Total fund balance for Special Districts Funds is$4,513,872 or 40%of total fund
expenditures and other financing uses for 2022.
• The Town adopted a formal fund balance policy...on March 20,2013 which prescribes that
a minimum of 15%to 25%of the subsequent year's budgeted appropriations be retained...
There's a lot more that needs to be said to put the highlights into context. I can't do it in
the time I have left. So,I will just fast forward to the third quarter operating report which
projected that the unrestricted fund balance of the general fund is expected to be 43%at
year end,and the part town ratio is expected to be 28%. The Highway fund ratio,the
third largest source of appropriations,is expected to close at 34%.And so we can forecast
with high degree of confidence that the year will end with a ton of money in the Town's
many rainy day funds. That's a good thing except to those who are less flush in our
community and whose pocketbooks are silently protesting that we were overtaxed
in 2023,just like we were in 2022. And the same will happen again in 2024 unless
you choose to apply more fund balance to reduce the tax levy from 4.87%.
And yet the mantra will continue,"the fund balance is needed in order to guarantee a
AAA rating and to lower interest costs." And"we use it prudently for'one shot
expenses,"'which when one looks closely enough is not always non-recurring items.
And,if you delve even deeper into the Auditors report,you will find the"pocket"where
a bunch of our fund balance resides in the Capital projects fund,which the auditors
reported had$10,459,081 at the end of 2022. Looking back ten years,the corresponding
number was$1,957,483. That's an 18.24%compounded annual growth rate for monies
that could have been used to slow the pain that homeowners are facing because of the
constantly increasing tax levies all around us.

Town Board

And there can be little doubt that this money has been taxed prematurely from
homeowners under the auspices of"being conservative"or that some homeowners who
paid up might never see the benefit of the finished capital project. But,there is no voice
speaking for them. Nobody saying,you know maybe we should not yet have shuffled$1
million from the general fund balance for an estimated$3 million pool renovation that
had no plans last year and may still have no plans or budget visible in the public domain.
And maybe we should pay for a bridge that will last for decades with grant money and
debt service rather than grant money and"overpaid taxes"that equitably belongs to the
taxpayers who paid it and not the ones who will use the bridge. And maybe we should
pay attention to the inflationary times we are living through and slow down until the soft
landing happens and interest rates decline. Because,after all,it can be argued that
government spending should be the driver out of a recession not into a slow down.
I know I cannot be that voice,no one taxpayer can. Last year,I urged you to appoint a
finance committee of volunteers from our tri-municipal community. I think it is safe to
say that there were issues that could have been discussed in due course in 2023. Those
issues and a new one,related to the allocation methodologies employed for shared
services,will exist again in 2024.
Let me finish where I began:needing a$60,000 salary just to pay the taxes on the
average home,and have the Town portion go up 4.87%is not sustainable for many
in our tri-municipal community. Maybe you can defer some capital spending until
the projects that are already teed up can finish or maybe you can apply more fund
balance in the Garbage District and repatriate the funds from the Joint Commission
as was done two years ago. Even if you can't do that,please think about appointing
a finance committee to help you navigate next year's budget.
