addressed the Town Board on behalf of the Planning Board. The Planning Board’s concerns about the
current Residential Site Plan law include, the exemptions placed in the law, specifically for the Durham
Road subdivision, adding that the exemptions should be very narrow, for very specific situations.
Additionally, the Planning Board’s concerns about the 70% disturbance and would like to see that
percentage lowered as a trigger for site plan review. The penalties are also too low, there should be daily
fines.
Mr. Block stated that he will address the Board again during the Public Hearing.

program that we will talk about later this evening. We had an Employee Recognition Event in the
Town yesterday where we recognized those employees who have worked for the Town from 10 to
40 years. The Chief of Police, Richard Rivera, has been with the Town for 40 years. It was a great
opportunity to thank our wonderful employees and show our appreciation for the staff. We
continue to refine our greenhouse gas inventory. We continued to work on our communications
plan for the Town. We met with our consultant and have a proposal to start working on a tiered
st
communications plan. On April 1 the renovation of the TMPD will commence. The front desk will
th
be relocated during the renovation. There are two big events on April 10: one is the Town’s Bunny
Hop race that begins at Memorial Park and the other is the tri-municipal Grow It Green event at
Larchmont Temple.

BY ORDER OF THE TOWN BOARD
OF THE TOWN OF MAMARONECK
CHRISTINA BATTALIA
TOWN CLERK
Published: March 5, 2016
On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney, seconded by Councilwoman Katz, the Public Hearing was
unanimously opened.
Supervisor Seligson recapped the work the Town Board has done drafting this legislation, then asked if
anyone wished to comment on the proposed Local Law.
Meg Deshpande, 6 Acorn Lane, asked for clarification, specifically the requirement of obtaining a
topographical map.
Doug Bloom, 22 Myrtle Boulevard, would like to see the Tree Law incorporated into the site plan review
more fully.
Elon Midor, 4 Murdock Lane, objects to restriction on trees as it takes away homeowner rights. He thinks
the Planning Board does an excellent job and doesn’t need an added layer of work. He thinks the Town
needs a Board of Architectural Review.
George Roniger read a letter from Ruth Campanelli, 7 Barnum Road, in which she addresses the concerns
of her neighbor who lived next door to the recent home tear down on Little Farms Road. Specifically
complaints about developers.
Ira Block, speaking on behalf of the Town Planning Board, spoke of the Planning Board’s concerns in the
difference in the site plan and sub division approval process, specifically as it applies to the exemptions
in the draft law, adding the Planning Board has discretion built in to the draft law, and feels the planning
Board can address the ‘one offs’. Additionally, the 70% disturbance should be reduced. Finally, the fines
are financially too low, especially for after notice of violation.
Charlie Gottlieb, of Cuddy and Feder, representing Andrew and Emily Saines, the owners of the approved
subdivision at 1 Durham Road. Mr. Gottlieb stated that written comments dated March 10, 2016 have
been previously submitted. Mr. Gottlieb made additional comments to the written submission with
respect to the comments made by the Planning Board, adding that there was considerable consideration
made by the Planning Board for the sub division approval.
Mitch Green, 6 Meadow Place read from his written comments submitted to the Town Board. In general,
Mr. Green believes the law is not sufficient in its definitions and conditions for triggering site plan
review.
Additional Comments were received and noted for the record by:
Lori Kupferberg, of Rockingstone Avenue, in an email dated March 16, 2016, wrote addressing grading
issues, especially ones that cause drainage hardship to their neighbors.
Maura Carlin, in an email dated March 14, 2016, noting some comments and concerns in the proposed
law, specifically whether this law would have addressed the issues faced by the project at 305
Rockingstone/75 Vine.
Burton Corwin, Commander, VFW Post 1156, submitted written comments, dated March 15, 2016,
strongly favoring the law, and elaborating on three areas of concern within the law as written.
On motion of Councilwoman Elkind Eney, seconded by Councilman Murphy, the Public Hearing was
unanimously adjourned until April 6, 2016.
