PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. Site Plan Approval - 211 South Ridge Street/Larizza
On motion duly made and seconded, it was unanimously
RESOLVED, that the Public Hearings be,
and they hereby are, declared open.
John Colangelo who appeared for the applicant, Lou Larizza,
indicated that this matter was before the Planning Board and
they had concerns relating to the traffic on Ridge Street,
parking in front of the building, the side yard setback and the
height of the building. He explained that there would only be
six parking spaces in front of the building; two of which would
be for handicapped parking. Also, the building was moved in four
feet off the property line. As for the height of the building,
Mr. Colangelo pointed out that it met every zoning requirement.
When asked about the height of the rear elevation by Mayor
Cresenzi, Mr. Ralph Mastromonaco the Consulting Engineer,
displayed a drawing of Ridge Street showing the County Office
Building, a bank and travel agency. Mr. Mastromonaco mentioned
that this property was purchased from the person residing in the
home to the rear of the property on Ellendale Avenue and that
the building was designed so no variances would be necessary.
Trustee Mendicino asked about the tenancy of the building and
Mr. Mastromonaco said that there would be five as condominium
offices to be used by accountants, lawyers, etc.
In answer to Mayor Cresenzi's question, Mr. Circosta explained
that the Planning Board was concerned about the additional curb
cut on Ridge Street and also the appearance of parking in front
of the building; they wanted more of a "street-scape."
Evergreens could be planted for screening, Mr. Colangelo stated,
but some questions were raised regarding visibility.
Trustee Filipowski questioned the rear elevation and Mr.
Mastromonaco stated the building would be 34 feet high in front
and about 20 feet higher in the back. The parking area under
the building will be open -- not closed in -- so the measurement
started with the first floor of the building.

July 26, 198800 1 i 1.2
Trustee Ravich suggested that any cars exiting from the building
be permitted a right-hand turn only and Mayor Cresenzi agreed.
Mr. Logan, a local resident, questioned the setbacks and Mr.
Mastromonaco complied by stating the building would be set back
46 feet from the curb on Ridge Street and when Mr. Logan raised
objections to the proposal because of increased traffic, the
Mayor explained that this land was zoned for commercial use and
the applicant was entitled to build on it.
Mr. Mastromonaco continued that there was parking for 22 cars on
the basement level; 19 underneath the building, and spaces #18,
#20 and #1 were out from under the building.
Mr. Ken Heller stated that the overflow parking would wind up on
Ellendale Avenue and he suggested making Ellendale a one-way
street so it could not be used as a shortcut for traffic coming
from the shopping center.
Some local residents stated that the present "No parking from
here to corner" regulations were not being enforced and they
didn't need any added traffic problems. Mayor Cresenzi contended
that the traffic issues were valid and would require further
study.
Trustee Smith noted that Ellendale goes through .into Port
Chester and Bill Aughavin contributed that the ambulance corps
was on Ellendale and they would need the necessary access.
In answer to Trustee Filipowski's question, Mr. Circosta stated
the zoning requirements, which called for one space for each
tenant and one space per 300 feet of floor area, have been met.
To answer Mr. Heller's question, Mr. Mastromonaco said water
runoff would be handled. The site is graded down to two catch
basins which will go into the storm system on Ellendale.
When a resident complained that the existing storm drains could
not handle the water runoff now, Mr. Mastromonaco mentioned that
the problem could be because the catch basins were clogged.
The resident said that the catch basins were cleaned constantly
by the public works department and Mr. Mastromonaco stated that
the proposed building would not contribute to any existing water
runoff problems.

With the questions regarding the height of the building, and the
traffic concerns about parking in front, a right-hand turn only
when exiting from the building, the possibility of a one-way
street and drainage matters, Mayor Cresenzi suggested that this
application be deferred.
Thereafter, on motion duly made and seconded, with a unanimous
vote of the Board, the following resolution was adopted:
RESOLVED, that the application of Lou
Larizza for Site Plan Approval at 211
South Ridge Street, be and it hereby is
adjourned to August 23, 1988.
2. Subdivision Approval - Beechwood Blvd./Helbing
Jeff Cohen, Esq. , appeared on behalf of the applicants and
explained the proposed subdivision. The existing line juts to
the right in Lot B and what is being requested would straighten
the mid lot line in the rear, Mr. Cohen stated, adding that the
applicants would like to be able to build a home on Lot A.
Mayor Cresenzi asked if the left rear corner of the existing
home met the rear yard setback requirement and Mr. Circosta
explained that the rear yard setback requirement came off the
rear of the house; that the 15 feet depicted on the map was a
side yard setback_
When Trustee Filipowski questioned the driveway location, Mr.
Cohen said the driveway at the existing house would be changed
and that it would be eliminated over the new Lot A.
To answer Trustee Mendicino' s question, Mr. Cohen stated that
modifications to the existing house were not planned at the
present time -- the parents of Mrs. Helbing will occupy it in
the future.
Since Lot A will become nonconforming, Mayor Cresenzi asked if a
variance would be required to which Attorney Kramer responded
that the applicants would not have to go before the ZBA.

When asked by a resident how far back the house would sit from
the street, Mr. Cohen replied approximately the same as the
existing house -- about 75 feet.
In order for Attorney Kramer to draft a proposed resolution for
the Helbing Subdivision, Mayor Cresenzi deferred this matter to
the end of the agenda.
3. Local Law #6-1988 - Animal Control
Mayor Cresenzi explained that this law incorporated a much
needed "pooper scooper" provision into the existing law.
Bill Aughay.in suggested that an enforcement officer be appointed
-- aside from the police department -- to effectuate this law.
Thereafter, on motion by Trustee Filipowski, seconded by Trustee
Ravich, with a unanimous vote of the Board, the following
resolution was adopted:
WHEREAS, this Board has met on this date
at the time and place specified in the
Notice of Public Hearing to consider the

DISCUSSIONS/REPORTS
5. Westerleigh Court - Dedication of Road (Iorio Subdivision)
Mr. Circosta explained that the developer did not have all the
necessary items as yet and Mayor Cresenzi adjourned this matter
to August 23, 1988.
6. Accessory Apartments - Discussion
Trustee Smith stated there was a need for affordable housing by
older persons on a fixed income as well as young people in the
Village and thought that by allowing accessory apartments, that
need could be met.
A resident asked what the difference would be between an
accessory apartment and a two-family house, and Trustee Smith
replied the size of it; the accessory apartment would be small.
A speaker said that would eliminate the one-family zoning and
Mayor Cresenzi stated that under the present zoning code, two
boarders could be taken in in a one-family home; the addition of
kitchen facilities makes it a two-family home.
Trustee Smith stated that both families lose their privacy in
the "boarder" situation.
Mayor Cresenzi said that lot sizes would have to be considered
as far as the impact was concerned.
Another speaker said that it would need a great deal of study
before Rye Brook was turned into a two-family area.
Bill Aughavin suggested that accessory apartments be limited to
a single person or a couple, if the tenant was not a family
member.
Randy Solomon asked how this could ever be enforced and Mayor
Cresenzi said that was a concern as well as that it could change
the character of the area.
- 29 -
July 26, 1988001131
Trustee Smith said this would be done by a Special Use Permit
and there would be certain requirements that had to be met; one
of them being parking.
Mr. Heller said there was already a problem with parking; in
some areas of the Village it would work fine, but in others it
would be terrible, he stated.
A speaker said that this should be researched very carefully and
Mayor Cresenzi was in total agreement, adding that it was a very
interesting concept but needed a lot of study.
At this time, Mayor Cresenzi set the discussion aside for
further review.
7. Deer Run Subdivision - Discussion
Mr. Circosta stated that presently eight building permits have
- been issued as well as four certificates of occupancy. He
continued by saying that the recent rains have caused some
complaints and inspections revealed that some deficiencies to
the swales as they were constructed on Lots 3, 5 and 10.
Mayor Cresenzi asked what the time frame was and Mr. Circosta
replied that the residents were notified on Friday and they were
asked to expeditiously correct the situation.
Mayor Cresenzi then asked Mr. Circosta to stay on top of the
situation and requested a report on Friday (7/29/88) afternoon.
Mr. Ken Heller stated that trees still have not been planted and
the builder promised to finish the stone wall along Lincoln
Avenue. He also said that the area between Lincoln Avenue and
the stone wall needed cleaning up.
Mr. Randy Solomon asked why the Deer Run problems come after the
fact and not before, and Mayor Cresenzi explained that the
project was not complete -- neighbors have removed trees, curbs
are not in and the Army Corps of Engineers has control over the
stream bed.

Mr. Solomon said he did not think that preventative steps were V V L l
taken, and Mayor Cresenzi stated there were problems with two
homes on that site where certain items were not put into their
deeds, and those problems are being looked into, he concluded.
8. Anthony J. Posillipo - Parking Report
Mr. Circosta presented a sketch he drew from the tax maps of
proposed parking for 14 cars on Garibaldi Place and 10
additional spaces which would access off Ridge Street.
Many objections were raised to this proposal from the residents
of Garibaldi Place and they requested to see an alternate plan.
j Administrator Russo explained that he had written a letter to
New York State regarding a right-of-way over their land near the
Posillipo Center but he had not as yet heard back from them.
Mayor Cresenzi stressed that this land was purchased for the
park and if that meant providing parking for the park, that is
what it would be used for.
Gloria Bevonia stated that cars would be parked up against her
fence and it now took her ten minutes just to get out of her
driveway.
Bill- Aughavin asked what the parking would be used for and Mayor
Cresenzi explained that it would not be for overnight parking;
it would be strictly for the park and building which at present
cannot be used because of the existing parking situation. This
would make the park more usable and relieve the residents at the
same time, he concluded.
