Re: Fence at 30 Roanoke Avenue (SBL: 141.35-2-39)
Dear Mr. Lagana:
I understand you requested that the Village of Rye Brook repair a fence located on or near your
property at 30 Roanoke Avenue. I spoke to Superintendent of Public Works/Engineering Michal
Nowak who informed me that it is your position that the Village of Rye Brook installed the subject
fence along the rear yard of 30 Roanoke Avenue years ago, in the 1990's during former Mayor
Salvatore Cresenzi's term, for screening and safety purposes due to the adjacent State highway (I-
287).
Even assuming the Village of Rye Brook installed the fence years ago, we have no documentation
regarding the installation and, more importantly, no evidence that the Village assumed any ongoing
maintenance obligations with respect to the fence. Therefore, it is the Village's position that it does
not own the fence and it does not have any maintenance obligations concerning the fence. To the
extent the fence is located on your property, you should contact the Building Department to determine
any requisite permit application(s) that may be needed for the demolition, repair or replacement of the
fence.
If you have any questions,please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
l�
Christopher J. Bradbury
