WORK SESSION
Visitors from Namibia
Representatives of the African Nation of Namibia visited the Town Board work session
to make the Board aware of the serious shortage of water in their country. They are
currently looking for sources of funding for the construction of wells to deliver water to
the people of their nation. Members of the Town Board asked various questions of the
representatives regarding their mission and suggested other agencies that may be able
to assist Namibia.
Attendees were:
Margaret Da Rocha, Pastor and Chairwoman of Pen African Christina Alliance,
Michael Sikongo, Translator and Advisor
Christian Nazire, Secretary to the Queen
**Queen Angelina Libribebe Matumbo— unable to attend due to hospitalization
Emergency Management Plan
The Town Administrator and Ambulance District Administrator reviewed a report to the
Town Board to inform them of efforts to bring our Emergency Management Plan into
compliance with the consultant's recommendations on our response to the April 15,
2007 storm.
The Town Board also discussed the potential of creating a Citizen Emergency
Response Team (CERT) Program in the Town to utilize residents willing to volunteer
their time during a storm event. One of the Town Administrator's summer interns will
focus on the feasibility of developing a CERT Program.
Property Revaluation Report
The Board received the revised version of the Impact Study Report regarding a possible
property revaluation in the Town of Mamaroneck. Most of the discussion focused on
the process to be followed to distribute the report in the community and to properly
educate the residents as to why the Town was investigating a possible property
revaluation.
It was decided that the first step would be to compose an executive summary for the
report that could provide a quick reference for residents regarding the purpose and
findings in the report. Once the executive summary is prepared the report will be
distributed first to the two Villages.
There was also discussion of the possible cost of a revaluation and the means by
which a request for proposal would be prepared. At this point it is unclear if the Town's
staff has the expertise to prepare an RFP for property revaluation. The Town
2
JUNE 4, 2008
Administrator will obtain the RFP's used by the Town of Pelham and Village of
Bronxville, to get an idea with regard to the complexity of the document.

Report, attend the Town Board work session on July 9.

5
JUNE 4, 2008
Commissioner O'Keeffe mentioned that over the Memorial Day weekend there was a
leak in an underground propane tank at a home in the Murdock Woods area. The
Hazmat Unit from the County was called to the home as was the Town Highway
Department to support the Town Fire Department. A number of homes in the area were
evacuated. As part of the containment process propane fuel was released and burned
in large water barrels; this process took 27 hours to complete. Commissioner O'Keeffe
thanked the Town of Mamaroneck Fire Department Volunteers for their generosity in
serving these long hot hours.
Councilman Odierna mentioned the Town will be setting a public hearing regarding this
matter as an added item to this evening's agenda.
Commissioner Wittner reminded the Fire Council that they will meet with Chief
Commender on June 18, 2008; as requested by Commissioner Seligson, he will prepare
a six month report on fire truck expenditures.
Commissioner Wittner announced that the Weaver Street Fire Department will have its
Open House on June 7, from 12:OOPM — 3:00 PM.

Councilwoman Seligson read the following:
Global Warmin_a and the Town of Mamaroneck
The Town of Mamaroneck has made a great start in combating global climate
change. We've replaced regular diesel oil with a bio fuel mix to heat the Town
Center. With diesel fuel costing over$5 a gallon, we've converted a diesel
garbage truck to run on used vegetable oil that the Town gets for free from local
merchants. These are just a few of the many actions the Town can take to reduce
its carbon footprint and energy use which in turn will help reduce global
warming. Reducing energy use helps promote energy independence, national
security, economic competitiveness, public health and protects the environment,
as well as reducing global warming. In addition, reducing the Town's energy
consumption will save it money.
Hundreds of local municipalities and most states have recognized the failure of
the federal government to act to address global climate change. As a result,
local governments, like ours, have been the cornerstone of our country's
response to global climate change. And it makes perfect sense for local
governments to be so important. Local governments control land use and
building codes, and are and will be the first responders to deal with the
consequences of climate change such as floods, storms and rise in sea level.
Local governments can reduce vehicle miles traveled(VMT) as they administer
transportation and vehicle fleets. Local governments can enhance markets for
renewable energy through their purchasing. We in the Town are just beginning.
Last week the Bush administration bowed to a court order and after a three year
delay, released a summary of federal and independent research pointing to the
harmful impacts of human-caused global warming in the US. The report included
new projections of how the poor, elderly and communities with lagging public
health systems will face large health risks from warming.
8
JUNE 4, 2008
Four hundred mayors representing 61 million Americans in 50 states have
signed the US Mayors Climate Protection Agreement to decrease greenhouse
gases, especially)CO2 pollution, to 7% below 1990 levels by 2012. We, in the
Town, have committed to reducing our carbon output by 5% by 2012.
A key reason for preparing to address this problem on the local level now is that
it's clear the federal government will begin funding energy reducing actions in
the near future, and the cities and towns that are prepared will receive the first
and lion's share of those funds. The U.S. Senate is scheduled to take-up the
Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act of 2008 (S. 3036) next week. This
landmark legislation would provide billions of dollars in Conservation Block
Grants to local municipalities to reduce greenhouse gases. It is also expected to
create a carbon tax on the production of greenhouse gases.
Specifically, some of the eligible activities for funding that could affect the Town
include grants for efficient buildings, drinking water utilities, clean vehicle fleets,
vehicle miles traveled reductions, and coastal community adaptation. Basically,
the grants will be for energy efficiency, renewable energy, traffic management
and projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
All of these reasons made me interested in attending the ICLEI Local Action
Summit 2008 North America conference in Albuquerque, NM a few weeks ago. It
was an excellent conference with 400 representatives (I sat with the mayor of
Santa Cruz, CA and West Palm Beach, FL for dinner) from 37 states who shared
presentations, ideas and actions on municipal energy saving and climate change
projects. ICLEI's an international nonprofit organization working with
municipalities to reduce global climate change. They work with many partners in
the industrial, commercial, nonprofit and governmental arenas.
I brought home a list of actions for the Town to move forward in its efforts to
reduce global warming. The most important and overall step the Town must take
is to review each and every municipal decision with an eye toward energy
reduction. Could we do this using less energy or with a renewable kind of
energy? Let's think about the way we run our Town business to see where we
can reduce energy use. Let's use recycled materials as much as possible, let's
turn off motor vehicles whenever possible, and let's regulate the temperature in
our buildings. It's not only good for the environment, but we'll save taxpayer
money as well. This should all be part of a Town comprehensive energy and
carbon reduction program including goals for energy reductions in different
sectors.
Then we need to better document and track our carbon footprint and reductions.
We should get credit for every change we make and set an example for the
public. We want to contribute to the overall improvements in Westchester
County and be counted in the region because climate change is not just a local
issue, it's a regional, national and global issue.
ACTIONS for Town of Mamaroneck to reduce its carbon footprint-
I .Update building code for energy conservation. Include all new buildings and
renovations of 50% and more.

ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
George Roniger, Larchmont Gardens' Civic Association (LGCA), announced their Fifth
Annual Spring Fling on June 14th, from 1:OOPM-4:OOPM; all are invited.
George asked the Town Board for an update on the train station stairwell.
Mr. Altieri said the shop drawings are in the approval process. The project is set to
begin in July and will be completed by August 14, 2008.
George asked if the Town had looked at the pillars located on Myrtle Blvd and Weaver
Street.
The Town Board responded that they had reviewed the pillars and would receive a cost
for repairs. It was noted that the cost should be incurred by the Association, with help
from the Town, similar to the Rouken Glen project. Supervisor O'Keeffe noted the
importance and safety concerns of having the Town assess the pillars, separate and
aside from who will pay for the repairs.
Councilman Odierna reminded George that a member of the LGCA should attend the
Work Session scheduled for June 18, 2008; the Board will be discussing the County
Project for the Duck Pond.

SUPERVISOR'S REPORT
Supervisor O'Keeffe attended the Gold Girls Scout Award. Devon Sheri Aronowitz,
Kathryn Howard, Devon Serrano and Elise Sjostedt were praised for reaching this
highest level in Girl Scouts. Supervisor O'Keeffe noted some of their outstanding
accomplishments.
Supervisor O'Keeffe noted the many Memorial Day events she and her colleagues
attended.
REPORT OF COUNCIL
Councilman Fishman noted the Little League event in memory of Stephen Spina; funds
were raised for Mr. Spina's daughter's education. Councilman Fishman noted the
community awareness, as well as fundraising events taking place for Darfur. There are
very active community groups, through school organizations and resident groups, who
are bringing the tragedies in Darfur to the forefront in hopes of raising awareness and
monies.
Councilwoman Seligson said she attended the Zoning and Planning Board Meetings
recently, noting she gave the Town Board a full briefing at their last Special Meeting.
Councilwoman Wittner attended the Coastal Zone Management Commission Meeting
and read the following:
The Coastal Zone Management Commission (CZMQ met on Tues. May 27
to determine the consistency of the Mamaroneck Union Free School
District's projects as described in the Environmental Assessment Form
under SEQRA, and the Coastal Assessment Form provided to the
Department of State. The latter was the referring agency. While the school
district is not subject to planning or zoning review because the Village of
Larchmont the Town of Mamaroneck and the Village of Mamaroneck each
16
JUNE 4, 2008
have a Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP), they are subject
to Consistency Review. In other words, is their proposal consistent with
our LWRP? Projects were described for Mamaroneck High School(MHS),
Mamaroneck Ave School, Central School, Chatsworth Ave School, Murray
Ave School and Hommocks- all to be done at the same time. By and large,
the projects, which must be put to the voters for approval of funding,
were renovations plus the addition of turf fields and expanded parking
areas. Some grass areas were to be converted to asphalt for parking; for
example, creating 32 spaces at Central and 27 in the now existing grass
area in the front of MHS; replacing grass with artificial turf would create 6
new fields measuring 6.12 acres. According to the project information,
there are currently 8.94 acres of Grass (field), soil and wood chipped
areas. After proposed construction this number would change to 0.4
acres. Non-porous track is now 0.6 acres and after completion would
measure 7.55 acres and as previously stated, the new artificial turf would
occupy 6.12 acres; and we wonder why there is an increase in flooding!
The consultants recommended repair of the underground storm water
piping near Murray Ave. School. The large Westchester County project
was brought to their attention.
Councilwoman Wittner quoted from the comments made by the
Mamaroneck Union Free School District and said there is a
misunderstanding in the following statement:
"The School District will coordinate with the TOM so during the short
period of reconstruction when access is limited or restricted, there will be
no significant impacts to the Town from loss of access to parking areas
and facilities such as the skating rink. Alternative forms of access,
potentially over Hommocks fields, will be coordinated during this period."
It is highly unlikely that the Town Board would allow vehicles access across
Hommocks grass fields.
Councilman Odierna noted the many Memorial Day events the Town Board attended.
He attended the LMC-TV Awards on May 29; always an exciting community event. On
June 22, the Village of Mamaroneck will hold its Harbor Street Fair and on July 1 the
Fireman's Parade will be held. Councilman Odierna praised and noted the many
wonderful Senior Citizen's upcoming events.
ADJOURNMENT
On motion of Councilwoman Wittner, seconded by Councilman Odierna, the meeting
was unanimously adjourned 10:25 PM.
