This project was $5.9 million of which 32% was funded through an EFC Grant $1.9m or $500k more than the original budget. The Town bonded $3.9 million however $1.6m was not utilized and will be returned to the debt service fund. A budget amendment is recommended below to transfer the remaining funds to the Debt Service Fund. 2 Trails End in Rye-Water Main Replacement (H1404) An emergency replacement of 600 linear feet of asbestos cement water main on Trails End in Rye is needed due to a break in the line. Currently, the water main is out of service and the 10 impacted residences are being supplied with water through temporary overland water connections to a fire hydrant in the area. Plans for the replacement water main are being developed for submittal to the health department and, once approved, work will begin. The protocol for asbestos cement water mains is to replace impacted sections rather than doing spot repairs given the potential for the release of asbestos fibers. This will be a joint capital project as the water main is located in the Rye outside district. As with other outside district capital projects, costs associated with the financing of the project by the member municipalities will be recovered over time through a capital recovery charge to the accounts within the outside district, in this case Rye. The revenues generated by this charge are allocated to the members within WJWW's financial statements and then become part of the income distributions back to the members. A budget transfer is recommended below to fund the Towns share of the project from contingency.

Wasp, Town Engineer CC: Tracy YogmanTown Comptroller Subject: Award of Bid - TA-24-03 - Highway Yard Generator Replacement General: Bid procurement was completed for the installation of the recently purchased Highway Yard Generator. Based upon the extensive lead time for equipment, The Town purchased the new generator unit and automatic transfer switch (ATS) through the Sourcewell cooperative contract earlier in 2024. The advertised contract provides the installation of the new equipment provided by the Town and other required sitework related to the generator replacement. On August 15th, 2024, three (3) bid proposals were received as summarized on the attached bid tabulation table prepared by the Engineering Department. The lowest responsive bid proposal was received from J.T. Oronzio General Contracting + Development, Inc. in the amount of $47,095.00. References provided for J.T. Oronzio General Contracting shared positive feedback on their past completed contract work. No errors or omissions have been identified during the review process for the contractor's bid. The Engineering Department recommends the authorization of contract award J.T. Oronzio General Contracting + Development, Inc. based upon their submitted base bid amount of$47,095.00. Funding for the Highway Yard Generator Replacement project was budgeted as part of capital project H5103. Additional contingency for unforeseen field conditions encountered during construction have been considered in conjunction with the capital project. The available budget in the H5103 project is sufficient to fully fund the recommended contract award and contingency reserve. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I recommend setting a public hearing for the upcoming Town Board meeting on September 30, 2024. Action Requested: Resolved that the Town Board hereby sets a public hearing for "Limitation of Parking Boat Trailers on Public Highways" for the September 30, 2024 Town Board meeting. Attachment/s: Limitation on Parking of Boat Trailers on Public Highways Law9.13.24 Page 10 of 54 o -9 Town of Mamaroneck _ rcrIl County of Westchester •FOUNDED 1661 • 740 West Boston Post Road, Mamaroneck, NY 10543-3353 COUNSEL TEL: 914/381-7815 FAX: 914/381-7809 WMakerJr@TownofMamaroneckNY.org MEMORANDUM To: Members of the Town Board cc: Meredith S. Robson,Town Administrator Allison May,Town Clerk From: William Maker,Jr., Attorney for the Town Subject: Boat Trailer parking Date: September 13, 2024 I attach a proposed local law that will regulate parking of boat trailers on the public streets. The proposed law allows such parking for one-half hour, my thinking being that this period will allow a boat to be provisioned or a boat owner to drive to a companion's home to pick up that person for a day on the water. There is one point that undoubtedly will confuse you when you read the law. The section being amended, 219-22, currently has no subsections (copy attached). It is a listing of the streets in the Town where parking is time-limited. The proposed restriction cannot fit into the chart as if enacted,it will apply to every street in the Town. Hence,the proposed law divides section 219- 22 into two subsections. It retains the chart but now calls it subsection "A" (The addition of"A" is the only change from the prefatory language of the current law) and adds the time restriction on boat trailer parking as a subsection "B". Page 11 of 54 Local Law No. -2024 This local law shall be known as the "Limitation on Parking of Boat Trailers on Public Highways" law. BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck Section 1 —Purpose: The Town Board finds that boats carried by trailers parked on the public highways have an unsightly impact upon the character of the Town. Section 2—Amendment of a current section of the Mamaroneck Code: Section 219-22 of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is amended by repealing the words: "No motor vehicle shall be parked for longer than the maximum time permitted, upon any of the public highways or parts of public highways described below:" and replacing them with the following: "A. No motor vehicle shall be parked for longer than the maximum time permitted, upon any of the public highways or parts of public highways described below:" and by adding the following new Subsection B: "B. No trailer carrying a boat or other watercraft, even if hitched to a motor vehicle, shall be parked for more than thirty (30)consecutive minutes,upon any of the public highways or parts of public highways." Except as so amended, the remaining text of section 222-22 shall remain unchanged. Section 3—Severability: Should any provision of this Local Law be declared invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration of unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect any other provisions of this Local Law, which may be implemented without the invalid or unconstitutional provisions. Section 4—Effective Date: This Local Law shall become effective upon filing with the Secretary of State. September 6,2024 Page 12 of 54 Town of Mamaroneck, NY Friday, September 13, 2024 Chapter 219.

The lowest responsive bid proposal was received from J.T. Oronzio General Contracting + Development, Inc. in the amount of $47,095.00. References provided for J.T. Oronzio General Contracting shared positive feedback on their past completed contract work. No errors or omissions have been identified during the review process for the contractor's bid. The Engineering Department recommends the authorization of contract award J.T. Oronzio General Contracting + Development, Inc. based upon their submitted base bid amount of$47,095.00. Funding for the Highway Yard Generator Replacement project was budgeted as part of capital project H5103. Additional contingency for unforeseen field conditions encountered during construction have been considered in conjunction with the capital project. The available budget in the H5103 project is sufficient to fully fund the recommended contract award and contingency reserve. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I recommend setting a public hearing for the upcoming Town Board meeting on September 30, 2024. Action Requested: Resolved that the Town Board hereby sets a public hearing for "Limitation of Parking Boat Trailers on Public Highways" for the September 30, 2024 Town Board meeting. Attachment/s: Limitation on Parking of Boat Trailers on Public Highways Law9.13.24 Page 28 of 54 o -9 Town of Mamaroneck _ rcrIl County of Westchester •FOUNDED 1661 • 740 West Boston Post Road, Mamaroneck, NY 10543-3353 COUNSEL TEL: 914/381-7815 FAX: 914/381-7809 WMakerJr@TownofMamaroneckNY.org MEMORANDUM To: Members of the Town Board cc: Meredith S. Robson,Town Administrator Allison May,Town Clerk From: William Maker,Jr., Attorney for the Town Subject: Boat Trailer parking Date: September 13, 2024 I attach a proposed local law that will regulate parking of boat trailers on the public streets. The proposed law allows such parking for one-half hour, my thinking being that this period will allow a boat to be provisioned or a boat owner to drive to a companion's home to pick up that person for a day on the water. There is one point that undoubtedly will confuse you when you read the law. The section being amended, 219-22, currently has no subsections (copy attached). It is a listing of the streets in the Town where parking is time-limited. The proposed restriction cannot fit into the chart as if enacted,it will apply to every street in the Town. Hence,the proposed law divides section 219- 22 into two subsections. It retains the chart but now calls it subsection "A" (The addition of"A" is the only change from the prefatory language of the current law) and adds the time restriction on boat trailer parking as a subsection "B". Page 29 of 54 Local Law No. -2024 This local law shall be known as the "Limitation on Parking of Boat Trailers on Public Highways" law. BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck Section 1 —Purpose: The Town Board finds that boats carried by trailers parked on the public highways have an unsightly impact upon the character of the Town. Section 2—Amendment of a current section of the Mamaroneck Code: Section 219-22 of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is amended by repealing the words: "No motor vehicle shall be parked for longer than the maximum time permitted, upon any of the public highways or parts of public highways described below:" and replacing them with the following: "A. No motor vehicle shall be parked for longer than the maximum time permitted, upon any of the public highways or parts of public highways described below:" and by adding the following new Subsection B: "B. No trailer carrying a boat or other watercraft, even if hitched to a motor vehicle, shall be parked for more than thirty (30)consecutive minutes,upon any of the public highways or parts of public highways." Except as so amended, the remaining text of section 222-22 shall remain unchanged. Section 3—Severability: Should any provision of this Local Law be declared invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration of unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect any other provisions of this Local Law, which may be implemented without the invalid or unconstitutional provisions. Section 4—Effective Date: This Local Law shall become effective upon filing with the Secretary of State. September 6,2024 Page 30 of 54 Town of Mamaroneck, NY Friday, September 13, 2024 Chapter 219.

Moved by Councilmember Fiddelman, seconded by Councilmember King, the Work Session unanimously opened at 5:02 p.m. WORK SESSION ITEMS 1. Discussion -Sale of Food Waste Truck Town Administrator Meredith Robson explained that prior to Steve Altieri's retirement as Superintendent of the Sanitation Commission, he submitted a grant to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYDEC)for the purchase of a truck to haul food waste from the sanitation yard collections for disposal. The grant could not be secured through the Commission, so it was done through the Town. The purchase and final grant closeout has been completed. The truck is now in use by the Commission—it is the small pickup truck used for food waste and miscellaneous pickups. Administrator Robson recommended that the Town transfer the title of the truck to the Sanitation Commission for$1 to finalize the transaction. She confirmed with the grant staff at the NYDEC that there is no issue in doing this, as the vehicle's intended use has not changed. Page 36 of 54 Town Board August 14, 2024 2. Discussion -2024 Capital Budget Amendments Administrator Meredith Robson suggested that the Board review only the Capital Budget Amendments at this meeting, then at the upcoming budget meeting on the 26th the Board can review the Capital Budget Reports. Town Comptroller Tracy Yogman presented the proposed 2024 capital budget amendments with the Town Board. The Board expressed their frustration with changes to costs for the Town's capital projects, noting that actual costs are coming in both overestimate and over bid. Administrator Robson and Comptroller Yogman explained that estimates are done one to two years ahead of the actual work, and it is the length of this process--from plan to budget to bond to work--that causes costs to escalate. On a positive note, Administrator Robson highlighted that the Town recently realized savings on the Sign Garage's roof through the use of an overlay membrane instead of a complete rebuild. That project is now coming in under budget. The Administrator reaffirmed to the Board that Town employees are always looking for savings for the Town. The Administrator added that she has never experienced this level of pricing volatility before during her career. 3. DEFERRED TO 26TH -Discussion -Q2 2024 Capital Budget Report 4. Discussion -Q2 2024 Operating Budget Amendments The Town Comptroller recommended the following 2024 Operating Budget amendments for the Town Board's approval, as they increase appropriations: • Ice Rink Trust Transfer(Fund A): The annual ice hockey tournament generated $22,028 in revenue and $9,135 in expenses, netting $12,893.32. A budget amendment was recommended to fund the transfer of the expenses from the Ice Rink Trust Fund. • LMC Media Renovation Project(Fund B): Upon the dissolution of the LMC Board of Control in 2023, the Town's share of Public Educational & Government Television (PEG)funds was transferred to the Town in the amount of$441,000. These funds are restricted for capital expenditures. A reimbursement of$113,000 was made to LMC Media for equipment, software, and renovation expenses of the new studio, leaving a balance of$328,000 in the PEG designated fund for future use. A budget amendment was recommended to reflect the transfer of funds to the equipment budget line designated for LMC Media. The Board then discussed the Town's PEG money allocation. Comptroller Yogman explained that the Town had initially received a portion of the Village of Mamaroneck's monies, and in addition the Village of Larchmont has now received more than they should have of both the Town and Village of Mamaroneck's PEG monies based on the corrected allocation. Comptroller Yogman had been advised that the municipalities should square up through Altice, rather than amongst themselves. 5. Discussion -2024/25 School Tax Warrant Next, the Town Comptroller presented the tax warrant authorizing the Tax Receiver to collect taxes for the 2024/25 Mamaroneck and Scarsdale School Districts, noting that the Town remits the full tax levy to the School Districts each year. 6. Discussion -KG&D Architectural and Engineering Proposal for LMC Offices Administrator Robson highlighted the proposal from KG&D Architects for the renovation of the LMC Media office space on the third floor of the Mamaroneck Town Center. The Administrator explained that this work falls under the Dormitory Authority State of New York(DASNY)grant originally initiated several years ago. LMC Media Page 37 of 54 Town Board August 14, 2024 currently has one suite on the third floor. The Administrator ensured that the Town will be on the lookout for any available funding that could possibly be used on minor hallway and flooring work. 7. Discussion -Award of Bid-TA-24-14-Reflectorized Pavement Markings & Striping -2024&2025 Administrator Robson presented the award of bid for TA-24-14- Reflectorized Pavement Markings &Striping-2024&2025. This project's scope consists of placing permanent pavement markings along Town of Mamaroneck roadways, parking lots, properties, and other areas of rights-of-way in accordance with Town of Mamaroneck specifications. The Engineering Department recommends authorization of the contract award to K5 Corporation in the total contract amount of$13,635.50 for 2024 and $14,440.50 for 2025, subject to approval of the Town Budget. 8. Discussion -Award of Bid-TA-24-10A-Reconstruction of Municipal Sidewalks &Curbing The Town Administrator reviewed the requested consideration of the award of bid for TA-24-10A- Reconstruction of Municipal Sidewalks&Curbing for the amount of $405,570. The Administrator noted that the Engineering Department has extensive experience working with the proposed contractor on Town capital projects, including the most recent Memorial Park Walkways&Sidewalk Replacement. Work completed by Peter J. Landi Inc. has been consistently of good quality and conducted in a professional manner. No errors or omissions that could potentially impact the viability of their bid price have been identified at this time. The Engineering Department recommends authorization of the contract award to Peter J. Landi Inc. based on their submitted base bid amount of$405,570. The budget for the reconstruction of the sidewalk and curbing contract was planned as part of capital project H173 in the amount of$290,000. It was noted that the capital project did not include the planned crosswalk improvements at Colonial Avenue and Daymon Terrace as well as Daymon Terrace and Forest Avenue at the time of the approval for the Town Budget. These locations were added following the review of concerns raised by the community and then recommended for inclusion received by the Town Traffic Committee to the Town Board. 9. Discussion -Amendment to the Noise Ordinance Town Supervisor Elkind Eney noted the need to correct the mistake that was made when this law was first passed. Town Attorney William Maker Jr. explained that when Local Law No. 1 of 2024 was passed, its time restrictions on the use of power tools included the golf clubs in Town, which use power tools to maintain and prepare for daily activities. Such restrictions on golf clubs had not existed previously, so the proposed amendment simply eliminates this inadvertent restriction. 10. Discussion -"Prohibition of Parking of Trailers and Mobile Homes on Public Streets" Law A draft of this proposed law prohibiting public street parking for mobile homes and trailers was initially discussed during the July 17, 2024, Town Board Work Session.At that time the Board requested revisions be made by the Town Attorney. The Board discussed further concerns with this proposed law and requested that Attorney Maker review the possibility of amending the current Vehicle and Traffic regulations to read that only certain vehicles may be parked overnight. 11. Updates Supervisor Elkind Eney updated the Board that the WJWW water filtration plant has received approval from the Planning Board for the Town-Village of Harrison, with the October benchmark now complete. The Town Administrator and Town Supervisor, along with the Honorable Steve Otis, Page 38 of 54 Town Board August 14, 2024 Honorable Shelley Meyer, and managers from Village of Mamaroneck and Village of Larchmont, met with the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT)to discuss the planned construction of the Post Road. The NYSDOT has allocated $16 million in their budget for paving Post Road from the New Rochelle border to Rye Neck. There will be multiple public meetings, with at least four or five scheduled at various stages. The next public meeting will be held with elected officials and will be conducted by the NYSDOT in the Town courtroom. The public engagement process has been rolled out, and input from elected officials will be solicited at the first meeting. Each subsequent meeting will build on the previous one, with a total of five anticipated meetings.Available for review on the NYSDOT website, the plan focuses on pedestrian and multi-modal transportation. The NYSDOT plans to host a public open house in the spring of 2025, followed by the development of feasible alternatives. The Supervisor will send further details to the Board. The County recently held a meeting to review an analysis of potential sewer consolidation. They presented the possibility of integrating the County's sewer system, highlighting the benefits of economies of scale. Administrator Robson explained that each municipality would need to fund the initial debt for any capital improvement necessary to meet the a to-be-determined minimum standard, then the County would take over from there. Participating municipalities would continue maintain their individual sewer funds to pay the County for these services. More details to come on this opportunity. The Town recently achieved a Triple-A Bond Rating and an AA rating for the Fire District. The bond sale attracted numerous bidders, resulting in a 3.07% rate for the town-wide bond, 3.80%for water, and 3.78%for the Fire District. The rate savings amounted to$76,000 over 30 years. Moody's indicated that maintaining a high fund balance is crucial due to the Town's debt levels. Comptroller Yogman highlighted that the sale generated a$360,900 premium,which will further help reduce the Town's debt. During the Moody's call on July 24th, Supervisor Elkind Eney said that feedback was extremely positive regarding management and fund balances; however, now Moody's recommends maintaining a fund balance of 30-35% of revenues. See Attachment A. The Roundabout Grant initially secured $2 million from Congressman Bowman, with an additional $2.9 million requested. Efforts are also focused on the Momentum Grant, which requires that the Town be designated a Pro Housing Community and would cover 50%of the cost. Out of 54 applicants, only 15 will be selected. The Town is hopeful that the Honorable Steve Otis and the Honorable Shelley Meyer will be able to secure additional funding for this project and Supervisor El kind Eney noted that she had written a letter to George Latimer regarding a$2 million request. With the recent completion of the Town's Storm Water Sewer Study, a plan of action is the next step. There is a need to identify and begin working on relevant grants this fall, ensuring projects are soon ready for application. The Sheldrake River project, which involves multiple municipalities and Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC)funding, was also discussed. The Town Supervisor added that the Honorable Steve Otis had suggested local projects for DEC funding to help ensure proper sequencing from New Rochelle. Next,Attorney Maker updated the Board on changes to the in-rem foreclosure in tax law. The Town can only recoup the money that is owed to the Town and any other funds are returned to the owner. It was ruled by the US Supreme Court as an unconstitutional taking. An in-rem foreclosure will now be processed more like a mortgage foreclosure. Also, Attorney Maker noted that with the passing of the new Judicial Security Act, active and former judges can now request the names and other identifying information of theirs and their family members to be redacted from tax rolls. See Attachment B. Page 39 of 54 Town Board August 14, 2024 12. Community Programs of Westchester Jewish Community Services CDBG Application The Town Administrator introduced Beth Propper and Lauren Bassin of the Community Programs of Westchester Jewish Community Services (WJCS). Ms. Propper, Grants Manager, and Ms. Bassin,Assistant Executive Director of Community Programs, both introduced themselves to the Town Board and explained their intention to submit a Community Development Block Grant("CDBG")application to obtain funds for improvements to Palmer House which is located in the Town of Mamaroneck. Ms. Propper and Ms. Bassin presented an overview of the project and explained how not-for-profits are required to obtain the endorsement of the municipality in which the property is located in order to qualify for the CDBG funding. The Board unanimously supported the WJCS application for their CDBG grant, noting what an asset such a well-maintained and well-run property is to our Town. The Board thanked WJCS for bringing diversity to our Town population, our events, and our recreational offerings. 13. Changes to Regular Meeting Agenda Affairs of the Town Item No. 3 will be deferred to the Town Board meeting on August 26, 2024. 14. Request for Executive Session Moved by Councilmember Nambiar, seconded by Councilmember King, the Town Board entered into Executive Session to discuss the proposed acquisition or sale of property;the employment history of particular individuals;and the Tree Law litigation. Carried Moved by Councilmember Fiddelman, seconded by Councilmember King, the Town Board unanimously agreed to resume the Work Session.

STAFF COMMENTS/PRESENTATIONS 1. Community Programs of Westchester Jewish Community Services CDBG Application The Town Supervisor welcomed Beth Propper and Lauren Bassin of the Community Programs of Westchester Jewish Community Services (WJCS)to speak. Ms. Bassin, Assistant Executive Director of Community Programs, and Ms. Propper, Grants Manager, introduced themselves to the Town Board and explained their intention to submit a Community Development Block Grant(CDBG)application to the County Urban Consortium to obtain funds for improvements to a property within the Town of Mamaroneck. Ms. Propper said that she and Ms. Bassin were here today to talk about one of their Page 40 of 54 Town Board August 14, 2024 group homes, "Palmer House,"located in the Town of Mamaroneck. Palmer House, she said, needs renovations, rehabilitation, and capital repairs. From the outside, Palmer House looks like its neighboring homes on Palmer Avenue. Inside, however, it houses ten unrelated adults with IDD, and at least three awake adult Direct Support Staff, present at all times,from a larger staff of 12 who work 24 hours a day to attend to resident needs. Palmer House has been in the community for quite some time, and WJCS is now looking at submitting this CDBG grant for the funding to do some necessary repairs. They would like the house to continue to look and function well in the community. Ms. Bassin then mentioned that WJCS had submitted some information to the Town Board on their intended repairs at Palmer House, which further details how they would spend the grant money (see Attachment C). Ms. Bassin welcomed any questions about WJCS or their plan for Palmer House renovations. The Town Supervisor thanked Ms. Bassin and Ms. Propper for their presentation as well as their service. The Board stated that they unanimously supported the WJCS application for their CDBG grant, noting what an asset such a well-maintained and well-run property is. The Board stated what an honor it is to have WJCS work in our Town and bring diversity to our population, our events, and our recreational offerings. Moved by Councilmember Nichinsky, seconded by Councilmember Nambiar, it was RESOLVED that the Town Board hereby endorses the submission of the application by Community Programs of Westchester Jewish Community Services for CDBG funding for improvements to the Palmer House in the amount of$200,000. Carried SUPERVISOR'S REPORT Welcome to the August 14, 2024, 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. Great Financial News! We just heard from Moody's Investor Services that the Town will maintain our AAA bond rating, which permits the Town to borrow at the lowest possible interest rate. Moody's stated that they considered the Town's solid financial position further supported by prudent budget management and solid reserves typically between 35% and 40% of total revenue. I'd like to thank Town Administrator Meredith Robson as well as Town Comptroller, Tracy Yogman and her staff for running a tight ship here at Town Center We received word late last month that the Town's 2024 Budget was awarded the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award from the Government Finance Officers Association. This award is the highest form of recognition in governmental budgeting and represents a significant achievement. In order to receive this award, a governmental entity must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as a financial plan, as an operations guide, and as a communications device. It reflects the commitment of the governing body and staff to meeting the highest principles of governmental budgeting and sets an example for other governments to follow. This is the 5th consecutive year that the Town has received this award. Kudos to Town Comptroller Tracy Yogman as we go for six in a row! Events: Wonder ribbon cutting: I attended the ribbon cutting for the grand opening of a new type of take-out restaurant in our community. Wonder, located in the Ferndale Shopping Center on Boston Post Road, has a unique concept. Their menu actually contains several different menus from restaurants across the nation offering varying types of cuisine. We wish them a successful run here in the Town. Welcome, Wonder! Last concerts in the park: Each year, on Monday evenings in July, the Town's Memorial Park is temporarily transformed into an outdoor concert arena with residents enjoying dinner out Page 41 of 54 Town Board August 14, 2024 on the field while watching and listening to terrific bands that our Recreation Department books. The last concert of the season was Monday, July 29th with "Seeing Red Band." Though the concerts have concluded for the summer, our Rec Dept does have one more movie to come to Memorial Park on Sept. 6th, "The Spy Next Door." TVS meeting July 23: Each year on a quarterly basis, representatives from both school districts in our community, along with elected officials and administrators from all three municipalities meet to discuss issues involving and affecting the Town/Villages and Schools. At this meeting, we discussed traffic safety issues in light of the tragic death of a kindergartener and his mom while walking to school. DOT meeting July 31: Meredith and I met with our NYS elected officials, Sen Mayer and Assemblyman Otis, along with representatives from the two villages and NYS DOT to discuss the project for resurfacing US Route 1 from the New Rochelle city line to Beach Avenue and from Alden Avenue to the City of Rye, while making considerations for drainage, pedestrian improvements, and curb work as funding allows in the Towns of Mamaroneck and Rye, and Villages of Larchmont and Mamaroneck, Westchester County. The current status of the project is In Development. The Bid Opening is expected to be in Summer 2026 with construction expected to begin in Summer 2026 and expected to be completed in Spring 2028. Several public meetings and opportunities for public comment are planned throughout the process Police night out August 13: "National Night Out" Last night, the Town of Mamaroneck Police Department and community members enjoyed a fun-filled evening with games, music and the opportunity to interact with our local police departments. This national event, sponsored here by the Village of Mamaroneck and held in Harbor Island Park is an annual community- building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. Westchester Power Information Session: Next Tuesday, August 20th, representatives from the non-profit Sustainable Westchester's Westchester Power program will host an info session here in the Courtroom at 7:00 pm. Westchester Power is a municipal electricity supply program that helps residents and small businesses here in the Town as well as 28 other municipalities in the County access renewable energy at competitive fixed rates.

Discussion -Complete Streets Project-Mike Smeets, Resident Town Supervisor Jaine Elkind Eney introduced Mr. Mike Smeets, noting that the Town would provide feedback to the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT)on the Complete Streets project following Mr. Smeets' presentation and the Board's subsequent meeting with a proposed consultant. The Complete Streets project encompasses the stretch of Boston Post Road (BPR)from the New Rochelle border to the Rye border. Mr. Smeets outlined the key points of his presentation, advocating for the Town Board to consider a bike lane connecting Hommocks Middle School (Hommocks)with Mamaroneck High School (MHS), noting that would displace only approximately 10 parking spots. Mr. Smeets recommended that the Town of Mamaroneck request the following from NYSDOT: • Reducing the speed limit to 30 mph or below on the Town's sections of BPR. • Narrowing and adding bike lanes with buffers to the BPR between Hommocks and MHS to slow traffic. • Consider redesigning the Hommocks Road/BPR intersection to support a road diet to the west. Councilmember Robin Nichinsky joined the meeting at 5:10pm. In response to whether Mr. Smeets would advise single or bi-directional bike lanes on the Town of Mamaroneck portion of the Post Road, Mr. Smeets deferred to the engineers'expertise. Mr. Smeets mentioned the current budget for the project stands at$20 million,which Supervisor Elkind Eney suggested needed to be increased. Page 47 of 54 Town Board September 4, 2024 Councilmember Jeffery King joined the meeting at 5:24pm. Mr. Smeets then addressed the road diet concept, which is designed to slow traffic. He observed that both the Village of Larchmont and Village of Mamaroneck are considering implementing the road diet strategy. In the Town of Mamaroneck's section of the BPR. He suggested ample space exists for a buffered bike lane, rendering a road diet unnecessary. Mr. Smeets also mentioned the complexity of the Hommocks Road/Weaver Street/BPR intersection. When prompted to clarify the objective, Mr. Smeets stated it includes enhancing cycling routes between Hommocks and MHS, improving safety through traffic calming measures, and fostering a safer commuting perception to encourage more cycling to both schools. Town Supervisor Elkind Eney anticipated the DOT meeting, the forthcoming phase of the project,would occur later in the fall. See Attachment A. 2. Discussion -Amendment to the Noise Ordinance Town Supervisor Elkind Eney clarified that this proposed amendment is identical to what the Town Board reviewed in the last meeting, thus it has met the timing criteria allowing the Town Board to schedule a Public Hearing for September 18th. 3. Discussion -2024 Capital Budget Amendments In accordance with the Budget Policy, the Town Comptroller had proposed multiple amendments to the 2024 capital budget for Town Board consideration. Town Supervisor Meredith Robson stated that this included extra funding for the Brookside Place Water Main Replacement(H1401)and the Waverly Avenue Bridge (H5162).An increase of$392k from the General Fund's balance is necessary to address out-of- scope activities related to utility coordination, traffic impacts, and mitigation strategies, along with extended services to align with the construction timeline. Administrator Robson confirmed that the intermunicipal agreement with the Village of Mamaroneck specified no accountability for the Village of Mamaroneck for these additional costs on the Waverly Avenue Bridge project. 4. Discussion -GAR Associates Agreement The Town Supervisor said that since 2013 GAR Associates has been providing revaluation services to the Town of Mamaroneck. With the expiration of the previous agreement(2020-2024), a new multi-year plan is crucial to maintain assessment equity at full market value, in compliance with the New York State Office of Real Property Tax Services guidelines for cyclical assessment programs. The new contract spans 2025-2028. Despite the prices remaining the same since 2017, and most terms unchanged except for updated dates for upcoming tasks, the Board sought clarification on pricing. Administrator Robson confirmed that the cost per property review has not changed. Town Attorney William Maker noted a decrease in certioraris since we began working with GAR. The Town Attorney now handles only a few each year which reflects GAR's effective performance. 5. Discussion -DTS Provident Design Engineering, LLP Proposal The Town Supervisor explained DTS Provident Design Engineering, LLP is an engineering group that the Town is considering hiring to develop a brief proposal for traffic engineering services relating to the Complete Streets project on the Boston Post Road to present to the Town Board. Administrator Robson noted that DTS will charge hourly, and this proposal development would involve only a few hours of their time. Page 48 of 54 Town Board September 4, 2024 6. Updates Town Supervisor Elkind Eney announced that she and the Town Administrator have developed a Community Development Block Grant(CDBG)application for a Senior Center generator. Administrator Robson highlighted the cost differences between diesel and natural gas generator options. Councilmember Nichinsky inquired about the possibility of installing solar panels at the Senior Center,while Councilmember Nambiar asked about storing the generated power with batteries. Supervisor Elkind Eney noted that the Senior Center also serves seniors from the Village of Mamaroneck and the Village of Larchmont, in addition to the Town's seniors. The Town Administrator mentioned that the CDBG grant proposal is for a natural gas generator, which has a higher cost of$188,550, with the Town responsible for a 50% match. This allows the Town to ultimately pursue either option.

RESIDENT COMMENTS Supervisor Elkind Eney asked if anyone in the audience wished to address the Town Board and there was no one. STAFF COMMENTS/PRESENTATIONS 1. CDBG Application -Senior Center Generator Town Administrator Robson presented the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)application for a generator at the Senior Center, emphasizing its many objectives. Firstly, the generator will enable the Town to maintain services for low- income seniors by ensuring the facility remains operational during adverse weather conditions and power outages. Additionally, the generator will support the continuation of the Meals on Wheels program. The Administrator further noted that the Town has been enhancing the storm resilience of its buildings by planning for generators to sustain services during prolonged power outages. This particular generator is intended for the Senior Center,which serves over 350 individuals. The installation of a generator at the Senior Center would facilitate warming and Page 50 of 54 Town Board September 4, 2024 cooling services, as well as the continuation of various other services for our senior population, of whom over 45% are estimated to qualify as low to moderate income based on records for nutrition and transportation services. It is estimated that an additional 15% may also qualify, although their incomes are not recorded as they do not utilize these services. The services provided would include security, general assistance, and companionship at the center, and would ensure the continuation of current meal services to 25 frail and homebound seniors. Furthermore, the generator would enable the Town to offer a suitable warming and cooling site and emergency shelter for the entire community during major weather events and extended power outages. The estimated cost of the generator is$188,550, which encompasses design, purchase, and installation. Given the three-year cycle of the CDBG program, the Town Administrator and Town Supervisor proposed including this request now to avoid waiting for the next cycle. Moved by Councilmember Fiddelman, seconded by Councilmember Nichinsky, it was RESOLVED that the Town Board hereby authorizes the Town Administrator to submit the CDBG grant application for the Senior Center Generator for a total project cost of$188,550, 50%of which will be the Town's responsibility, and hereby authorizes the Town Administrator to execute the agreement and any related documents necessary to carry out its implementation.
