WORK SESSION ITEMS 1. OUT OF ORDER: Call for Executive Session Moved by Councilmember Fiddelman, seconded by Councilmember Nambiar, the Town Board agreed to enter into Executive Session at 5:02 p.m. to discuss matters which will imperil the public safety if disclosed and the employment history of particular persons. Carried Councilmember Nichinsky joined the meeting at 5:20 p.m. Councilmember King joined the meeting at 6:24 p.m. Moved by Councilmember King, seconded by Councilmember Nichinsky, the Town Board unanimously agreed to resume the Regular Meeting at 7:41 p.m. Carried 2. Discussion of - 2024 Operating Budget Amendments Comptroller Yogman presented a 2024 operating budget amendment to the Town Board in compliance with the Town's Budget Policy. The amendment includes a $5,431.23 insurance recovery (SL5182) for replacing a streetlight on West Boston Post Road that was knocked down in an auto accident. 3. Discussion of - 2024 Capital Budget Amendments Comptroller Yogman presented three 2024 capital budget amendments to the Town Board for approval. First, additional consulting hours were needed to complete the implementation of the Munis financial system's enterprise asset management module Town Board November 6, 2024 used by Highway and the Garage. Additionally, timeclocks and iPads must be purchased for employees to record their hours worked. A budget amendment in the amount of $44,000 is recommended for these items (H1689). Second, the cost of outfitting the Fire Chiefs car was slightly higher than planned. Therefore, a budget amendment of$688.56 is recommended to cover these additional expenses (H3472). Lastly, the Pool project is still in the early planning stages and likely won't require funding until 2026. Consequently, the originally planned funds will be returned to the General Fund, with the project's design funded through a grant that remains in place. A budget amendment returning $1 ,000,000 to the General Fund is recommended (H7125). 4. Discussion of - 2025 Tentative Budget Supervisor Elkind Eney shared several recent funding requests from community nonprofit organizations with the Board. The Board discussed maintaining the same funding levels for these organizations in 2025 as were provided in 2024. See Attachment A. 5. Changes to Regular Meeting Agenda Supervisor Elkind Eney added to the Regular Meeting agenda the reappointment of Lisa Collins to the Board of Assessment Review and the reappointment of three members of the Coastal Zone Management Commission. 6. Updates Councilmember Fiddelman reported that the Housing Authority had recently identified three Town signs around the Hommocks Park Apartments that require their posts to be painted. Additionally, the Housing Authority will be holding a tenant meeting on December 3, 2024.

The Town Board met today for a Work Session in Conference Room A, starting at 5:00 pm, which is open to the Public. I do not think it is appropriate for me in my role as chief elected official of the Town of Mamaroneck, at a Town Board Meeting, to comment on the national election results of last night. My Supervisor's Report this evening will be, as it always is, limited to my role as the chief elected official of the Town of Mamaroneck. First, I wish to congratulate County Executive George Latimer on his election to become our US Congressman, Shelley Mayer on her re-election as our State Senator, and Steve Otis on his re-election as our State Assemblyman. I also congratulate Larchmont Village Mayor Sarah Bauer and Larchmont Trustees Peter Fanelli and Terence Pare on their re-election. Finally, I congratulate the Village of Mamaroneck Trustees who were elected last night, Dan Kushnick, Ellen Silver and Maria DeRose as well as Justice Dan Gallagher who was re- elected. I look forward to working with all of you for the benefit of our community! Town Board November 6, 2024 The past two weeks were full of great events in the Town that I happily attended. On October 21st I attended Dedication of the Hillside Avenue Bridge in the Village of Mamaroneck. The bridge was dedicated to the memory of Assistant Village Manager Daniel J. Sarnoff. This past May, Dan passed away having served the Village for over 14 years. I had the pleasure of working with Dan on the construction of the Waverly Avenue Bridge and meeting with him at Town Village School Meetings. He was knowledgeable, cooperative, creative and pleasant. He was a consummate professional. He is missed. October 23rd, I attended Larchmont Library Director Laura Eckley's Retirement Party. Laura was the Director of the Larchmont Public Library for the past 12 years. Under her leadership and vision, the Library became a dynamic center of the Community as she worked with the staff to reinvent and expand its offerings. The Library also became a refuge, particularly during the pandemic and Hurricane Ida. In addition, Laura inspired her staff while also fostering wonderful relationships with the Community and the Boards of the Town of Mamaroneck, Village of Larchmont, and Friends of the Library. Her achievements were unparalleled, and Laura Eckley will be greatly missed. On October 25th I attended the TMFD Inspection Dinner: The Town of Mamaroneck Fire Department Inspection Dinner celebrated, among other achievements, two new honorary Chiefs: Mike Pinto and Matt McCauley. Retiring Fleet Manager Mike Pinto was honored for being available to our Fire Department 24/7 to take care of whatever repairs were needed to our firetrucks any time of day. Matt McCauley, a Town of Mamaroneck Prosecutor and First Responder who reported for duty at Ground Zero on 9/11/2001, was honored for fighting for benefits and compensation for ill and injured first responders and civilian survivors through the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund. Just prior to the dinner, the Department's personnel and equipment were inspected by the Chiefs and our elected officials. This tradition, which occurs annually, ensures all are in excellent condition and ready for service for another year. Thank you, TMFD, for all you do for our community each and every day. October Halloween Events: LGCA, Ragamuffin, TMFD: Every year, I have a spooky good time at the Halloween events in Town which included the Larchmont Gardens Civic Association's Halloween Stroll, the Ragamuffin Parade and our Town's very own Harry Potter-themed Halloween event at our haunted Weaver Street Firehouse. Daylight Savings Time began this past Sunday. As a reminder, please check batteries in your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. I'll end on a happy note because we could all use a little cheer. We have had some big life cycle events in the Town this week. • Deputy Fire Chief Alex Rapp and his wife Cheryl are the proud parents of a baby girl, Sidney, born this past Monday! A great excuse for his missing our fire council meeting. Mother and baby are doing well! Congrats to all! • And I became a mother-in -law as my daughter got married this past weekend. It was a magical experience. Be safe! PUBLIC HEARING(S) 1.

BY ORDER OF THE TOWN BOARD OF THE TOWN OF MAMARONECK Published: October 25, 2024 Moved by Councilmember King, seconded by Councilmember Nichinsky, the Public Hearing was unanimously opened. Carried Attorney Maker introduced the proposed local law. Councilmember King added that the Town Board had discussed this proposed local law at length during Work Sessions for quite some time. Suzanne Techs, 1 Edgewater Place, was on hand to thank the Board for the this proposed local law. She had originally made the request for a change in the existing law she explained, because there is a boat trailer in the one available on-street parking spot near her home for 363 days the year. The only two days each year the trailer is not there is when it is in use with the boat going into the water or coming out of the water for the season. Ms. Techs provided the Town Board with photos taken of the trailer throughout the past year. She exclaimed if there were more street parking available, it would not be a problem. See Attachment B. Ms. Techs did have a question about the term 'public highway' used in the proposed local law. Attorney Maker reassured Ms. Techs that the law would apply to all public streets in the Town. Moved by Councilmember King, seconded by Councilmember Nambiar, the Public Hearing was unanimously closed. Carried Moved by Councilmember Nichinsky, seconded by Councilmember Fiddelman, the following local law was approved: Local Law No. 6 - 2024 This local law shall be known as the "Limitation on Parking of Boat Trailers on Public Highways" law.

Carried RESIDENT COMMENTS Mr. Umar Mian addressed the Town Board to share his and his neighbors' concerns about flooding issues around their properties. Mr. Mian has lived at 6 Adrian Circle for the past seventeen years. For the first ten years that he lived in the Town, there were no flooding problems. However, now all four houses on his block become isolated during heavy rains due to water streaming from Griffin Avenue and the Winged Foot Golf Course that then converge on his property. Although his basement remains dry, his neighbors are not as fortunate. He expressed frustration and anxiety over the increasing flooding, describing it as post-traumatic-stress-inducing for his family. Mr. Mian described how floodwaters from a hill on Winged Foot Golf Course create flash floods, exacerbating the issue. He urged the Town Board to address this problem soon. Mr. Mian emphasized the psychological impact on his family, who anxiously monitor rainfall due to past experiences. Ms. Yana Rozovsky, who resides at 9 Kolbert Drive, presented a packet to the Town Board with a letter from the group of neighbors and photos spanning several years. Ms. Kerry Graff, Ms. Rozovsky's neighbor at 11 Kolbert Drive, recounted experiencing four severe floods since 2011 . She stated that the most recent two flood brought four feet of water, debris, and wildlife into her home, traumatizing her children. Ms. Graff requested the Town prioritize flood mitigation in the 2025 budget and seek additional measures to manage the water flow behind Mr. Mian's house, through Ms. Rozovsky's property, down the street and its progression into Murdock Woods. The group urged the Board, for their benefit and that of their neighbors, to consider advancing the Stormwater Management Report's recommended actions to mitigate flooding in the Town. They added that addressing the problem 'upstream' at their location, where water from Scarsdale converges with Winged Foot runoff, as doing so could potentially alleviate issues further 'downstream' in the Town.

Meg Margaret Kaufer President,The STEM Alliance Creating a network of STEM learning opportunities www.theSTEMAlliance.org rn ufer@theSTEMA1Uance.org 914.419.1733 Town Board November 6, 2024 Attachment A (Cont'd) C 01120p CONTACT DETAILS NAME Margaret Kaufer BECAUSE SUMMER MATTERS ORGANIZATION: The STEM Alliance/MUFSD Co-Op Camp EMAIL: mkaufer@thestemalliance.ora NUMBER: 914.419.1733 A'STEM ALLIANCE PROGRAM WEBSITE: www.coopsummer.ora TOWN OF MAMARONECK BUDGET REQUEST FISCAL YEAR 2025 BUDGET REQUEST FOR 2025: $60,000 PROJECT DESCRIPTION In 1966, Mamaroneck educator and community organizer, Dee DaBramo, had a vision of raising the self-esteem of Mamaroneck teenagers by employing them to create an affordable summer enrichment experience for young children. With that vision, he launched "Summer Co-Op."As its name implies, the program was always a "cooperative"- an investment in both the lives of underserved young children and in the lives of our teenagers through a cooperative commitment of funding from the school district, local philanthropic dollars and the Town and Village of Mamaroneck. Today, Co-Op reaches over 270 Mamaroneck School District children, the majority of whom (90%) qualify based on financial need (free/reduced lunch). The majority of the children attend the five week elementary program for grades 1-5. There is also a five week leadership development program, RISE, for 7th and 8th graders and a two week Middle School transition program for 6th graders. Families pay a small registration free but no family is turned away if they can not pay. Each year, we have between 10-25 families who cannot afford to pay at all. Co-Op is unique because it is a local, affordable program that provides both a classic day camp experience and academic enrichment program. Over the decades, Co-Op has served thousands of children and become part of the fabric of our community with generations of children from the same families attending and/or working at the program. Today, Co-Op's mission is to create equal access to quality summer programming because summer matters in the lives of children. We provide a blend of summer learning and summer fun. The program provides weekly STEM "majors," swim instruction (86% of Co-Op children can not swim at summer start), recreation, field trips and traditional summer experiences like our Color Wars competition. Our standards of excellence recently earned us a national prize, the 2023 NY Life and National Summer Learning Association's Excellence in Summer Learning award. (View a short video produced for those awards via this iink.) Co-Op was one of only 8 programs recognized nationally and we received our award from Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona. Co-Op is a high impact, results oriented program that is changing the lives of children, tweens and teens through the transofrmative power of high quality summer enrichment. Town Board November 6, 2024 Attachment A (Cont'd) FY 2025 REQUEST To support the Summer 2025 Co-Op Summer Enrichment program, we are seeking $60,000 of support. This funding helps to pay for: • Bussing costs for field trips, swimming, to/from the program • Staffing costs for our aquatics team, counselor team and management team • Equipment for all programming including teaching supplies and recreation equipment NEED In 2017, The STEM Alliance started as the Lead Administrator for Co-Op. Since then, The STEM Alliance has been a committed partner working to ensure that the highest quality of programming teaches the highest possible number of campers. Our full impact metrics are summarized in our Annual Report which can be found on our website: https://coopsummer.org/annual-report.html. Overall, our Co-Op data shows that the program supports critical social, emotional growth along with school preparedness skills. Campers indicate that as a result of attending Co-Op, they feel more ready for school in September. Co-Op campers are also more likely to hold their reading scores or have reading gains when they return to school in September. Finally. another data point of significance is that later in their school career. Co-Op campers are more likely than their same socio-economic peers to be in honors and AP classes at the high school. These results align with research that shows that participating in summer camp programs has long term positive benefits for children. Over this same time period, we also grew the program to reach not just rising 1st to 5th graders but also rising 6th, 7th and 8th graders. This resulted in a 19% overall program growth. Beyond adding children, we have also increased the number of young adult staff members whom we hire, increased their pay, added bonuses and added a focus on inclusion. Annually, we now hire young people with special needs including at least one student from the Transitional Academy at Mamaroneck High School. As a final part of our public-private partnership commitment to this work, The STEM Alliance leads an annual fundraising campaign to raise all of the money needed to supplement our MUFSD contract dollars. The MUFSD monies-which include the Town of Mamaroneck(TOM) monies-do not cover all program costs. At this time, annually, we need to raise a minimum of$200,000 in philanthropic dollars in order to cover all program costs. The challenge is that the MUFSD monies and municipal dollars have not followed in line with our increased expenditures caused by both program expansion and inflation. In 2017, the MUFSD dollars covered 58% of the program costs. In 2024, the MUFSD dollars covered only 47% of the program costs. For this reason, at this time, we are requesting an increase in budget commitment in the TOM budget in order to provide $60,000 in support for Co-Op. This would be the first increase in TOM dollars in the past 10 years. Funding will support high inflation costs for trip entrances, busing and salaries as well as ensure that no family is turned about due to cost.

They recommend widening the stream and renovating the bridges to increase capacity and flow of the stream. We were also told the town can apply for a grant to have this work completed. 6 Adrian Circle has the first bridge over the stream and it acts as a bottleneck placing our homes at extreme risk for problems. In addition, we would like to draw your attention to the rain water that flows from the Winged Foot golf course and from 165 Griffen Avenue. During heavy rains, this forms a tributary to the stream and flows at the back of our houses. It then cuts across the backyard of 9 Kolbert, and then goes back into the stream between 9 and 11 Kolbert Drive. We strongly request the town address this problem as well. Our backyards constantly flood. We are extremely concerned because we continue to see unprecedented rain events happening here and all over the country. The recent downpour in Monroe, Connecticut is a very frightening example. Fortunately, Mr. Wasp has been very helpful as he is completely aware of this situation. Since these projects take time for completion, we urge the Town to fast track our case and have the work done as soon as possible. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help expedite it. If it is helpful to have an in-person meeting or our presence at any of the board meetings, please let us know. We thank you in anticipation of your efforts to fix this concerning issue. Every time there is any amount rain forecasted we all live in fear that we will have flooding issues once again. We look forward to hearing from you as to what the next steps should be.
