PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. Rye Ridge Shopping Center/Merritt & Holby .-
Rezoning Approval and Preliminary Site Plan Approval
on motion duly made and seconded, it was unanimously
RESOLVED, that the Public Hearings be,
and they hereby are, declared open.
Bruno Gioffre, attorney for the applicants, stated that to
consider a further reduction in the size of the building was
unacceptable to his clients. As it stands now, it is 1/3 of the
original proposal, and it would be too limiting, he said. He
then requested the Board to consider the present proposal.
After polling the Board, Mayor Cresenzi stated that it was the
consensus of the members that a decision could not be rendered
at the present time.
Mr. Gioffre then respectfully moved to withdraw the application,
without prejudice, and all offers of previous commitments will
be withdrawn also. The application will be reevaluated, Mr.
Gioffre offered, adding that perhaps Merritt & Holby will
proceed with the "as-of-right" application and come back before
the Board for Site Plan Approval.
Since the application of Merritt & Holby has been withdrawn, the
Public Hearing shall be considered closed, Mayor Cresenzi noted.
2. Site Plan Approval - 211 South Ridge Street/Larizza
3. Subdivision Approval - Beechwood Blvd./Helbing
Because proper notice to adjoining neighbors was not made, Mayor
Cresenzi stated that these matters would be adjourned to the
meeting of July 26, 1988.

DISCUSSIONS/REPORTS
7. Westerleigh Court - Dedication of Road (Iorio Subdivision)
It was stated by Mr. Circosta that he provided the developer
with a list of items to be completed and that he was waiting for
a Maintenance Bond which would then be forwarded to Attorney
Kramer for review.
8. Brook II - Discussion and Proposed Resolution
Roger Herman, Shirley Rothenberg and Ruth Carlucci, members of
the Ad Hoc Committee, offered a slide presentation of the rocky
terrain on the excess Hilton property and voiced their concerns
on the proposal.
Mrs. Rothenberg submitted a typed report which stated, in
essence, that there should be diligent supervision of the
planning and construction of the project and suggested that a
special person be assigned to superintend the undertaking.
Also suggested by Mrs. Rothenberg was the adoption of a Regional
Land Use law by the Village and Mr. Herman was of the opinion
that the Village should have the right to specify what type of
clustering would be permitted. He also suggested that the Board
consider restricting the percentage of property that can be held
privately; the property should be held in common.
Ms. Carlucci spoke at length about the possible traffic problems
and the antiquated traffic lighting system at the corner of
Ridge Street and Westchester Avenue. It was then suggested by
Ms. Carlucci that the Rye Town Hilton be contacted concerning
the possibility of access to the site through their service
road.
- 5 -
June 28, 1988 00 1.09d
In answer to a question raised by Ms. Carlucci, Mayor Cresenzi
responded that this land has become very valuable and with land
costs, developers are exploring areas that were never explored
before; also, the property does allow for a shifting of the
parcels of land for clustering purposes. And, he said, common
ground is one of the points which will be discussed further as
the concept of clustering was to maintain as much of the terrain
as possible.
Site Plan Approval will encompass the location of the road --
where it comes in and where it goes out; to save a rock, a road
may have to be shifted, Mayor Cresenzi indicated.
Mrs. Rothenberg asked if there was enough space for sixty units
to which Mayor Cresenzi replied that the Professional Engineer,
Mr. Weiner, the Village Building Inspector, and the Consultant
for the Village, Frederick P. Clark, agreed upon the number of
units based on the fact that the developer could go in and
blast. These professionals are working towards the goal of the
development of the property with the least amount of impact on
the neighbors, Mayor Cresenzi announced, adding that clustering
would allow the units to be moved so blasting would not have to
take place.
Mr. Youngs stated that anything that can be done to shift some
of the traffic through the Hilton property would be helpful. He
then asked where the proposal went from here and Mayor Cresenzi
replied that it would go back to the Planning Board, then future
joint meetings between both Boards would be held with the
residents and eventually Site Plan Approval.
If the developer had a right to blast it would be very costly,
Mrs. Rothenberg mentioned, and Mayor Cresenzi noted that he
could not be denied permission to blast, if that were the only
alternative but with clustering, the sites could be shifted to
preserve green space and "gray" space (rock outcropping) .
When asked about dredging the pond, Mayor Cresenzi said that
issue would be addressed as the project progressed.
Former Village Trustee, Jules Harris, questioned the adequacy of
staffing in the Building Department, and thought that, if
necessary, the staff could be augmented, and Mayor Cresenzi
pointed out that the developer would be responsible for paying
for the building inspections.

June 28, 1988
Mr. Ken Heller contributed that developers have to abide by
certain rules; but once the homeowners move in, down come the
trees and in goes the blacktop. But by reducing the lot sizes,
and providing more common land, more green space would be left,
Mayor Cresenzi submitted.
Mr. Randy Solomon voiced his concern over potential flooding and
drainage problems around the brook and added that the Building
Inspector and his assistant should be right on top of this
issue.
Some discussion followed regarding the possibility of the
Village purchasing this virgin property for a park, but Mayor
explained that aside from the cost, it would not be feasible
from a municipal point of view and Trustee Mendicino pointed out
that park land would have to be open to the general public.
At this time, Mayor Cresenzi declared that short recess be held.
The meeting reconvened at 9:45 P.M. , and Mayor Cresenzi noted
that the Brook II matter would be brought up again shortly.
RESOLUTIONS/AGREEMENTS
9. Royal Executive Park - Phase III: Designation of
Lead Agency Status
Attorney Kramer requested that this matter be adjourned to July
26th because no supplemental FEIS has been received from the
applicant.
10. Expressing Interest in the Westchester County

Administrator Russo explained that this resolution was requested
in order for him to proceed to the next phase of determining the
Village's possible participation in the health insurance program
and on motion by Trustee Smith, seconded by Trustee Ravich, the

of New York.

Filipowski, with a unanimous vote of the Board, the following

BROOK II (Continued)
At this time, the Brook II project was again discussed.
- 10 -
June 28, 1988 001096
Milton Berner, the applicant's attorney, respectfully requested
that he be permitted a resolution specifying: 1) that 60 units
of housing being permitted; 2) specifying the clustering of
single-family homes; 3) Site Plan and Subdivision Plat review
procedures with the Planning Board commence; and 4) that the
SEQRA process be permitted to continue for the project.
Mr. Solomon was opposed to the Village locking itself into a 60
unit project and Mr. Berner explained that in order for the
project to proceed further, a site plan had to be prepared, and
some guidelines were necessary.
Mayor Cresenzi reminded everyone that the number (of units) was
higher to start with and that the three professionals agreed to
60 units -- not the placement of them -- just unit count.
Ms. Carlucci voiced her concerns and posed several questions to
the Board which Mayor Cresenzi stated had been previously
addressed at the special work session held in May.
Some discussion arose concerning the validity of the Frederick
P. Clark report and Mayor Cresenzi assured everyone that the
firm would not submit an incomplete report.
In answer to a question raised by Ms. Carlucci, Trustee Smith
said the road that was there now had to be ignored; it was only
used as land in determining building lots.
Attorney Kramer maintained that there could be an easement over
the driveway and the area used in determining building lots.
Bernie Klem, a Planning Board member, pointed out that the count
was arrived at by what was allowed in the Zoning Code and the
topography of the site and was not really open for negotiation
with the neighbors as to how many lots could be built.
Trustee Filipowski claimed that he did not have sufficient time
to review the proposed resolution since he just received it and
he did not want any mistakes being made.
This matter has been going on for almost two years now and these
particular items were discussed at the special work session held
on June 20th, so it could have been reviewed by now, Mayor
Cresenzi stated, adding that this resolution was just confirming
those discussions.
- 11 -
00109:
June 28, 1988
In answer to Trustee Filipowski' s question, Mr. Circosta replied
that the existing zoning code does not address the issue of
steep slopes. Submitted plans were worked from together with
zoning regulations (in determining lot counts) , Mr. Circosta
stated, adding that the area of the pond was also considered in
assessing building lots.
At time time, on motion by Trustee Smith, seconded by Trustee
Ravich, with a roll call vote of the Board, the following
resolution was unanimously adapted:
