Mayor Cresenzi stated that the Board would be deviating from the
Agenda this evening dealing with the Budget Resolution first.
Administrator Russo explained that as per the Board's
deliberation, the proposed 1991-1992 Budget was revised. The
tax rate per thousand increase has been reduced to $5.80 from
the proposed Budget which in tax rate percentage is a 7.68% The
following changes in the tentative budget include the
restoration of the police officer position and a reduction in
the following areas: Shade trees, the elimination of one
Village vehicle, the elimination of a small portion of road
resurfacing funds, the transfer of catch basin cleaning to the
maintenance district, a reduction in both contractual terminable
costs and furniture and fixtures.
Trustee Ravich pointed out the items that are due for
restoration and stated that Mr. Russo might want to mention them
as they are a new aspect of this Budget.
Administrator Russo stated that should we have our state aid
restored or sales tax revenue realized, the Board would consider
restoration of such items as the Highway Foreman's position,
road resurfacing funds, the replacement of one police vehicle,
and additional funding in the Shade Tree program.

On Motion made by Trustee Ravich, seconded by Trustee Solomon,
the following Resolution was adopted:

Mayor Cresenzi reconvened the Public Hearing dealing with the
Rye Brook Village Code. He added that he would prefer to keep
the discussion limited to 1 hour this evening as the
codification process is lengthy and involved and will require
numerous meetings before it is adopted.
Attorney Beane stated that based on comments he has heard, and
read, he has concluded that the entire codification process is
misunderstood. What the Village is doing is taking all of the
existing Village ordinances, some of which go back to the
Village's formation in 1982, and compiling all into one single
volume. Also, they are updating certain sections of Local Laws
by changing definitional words and rewriting and amending
certain ordinances to reflect suggestions made by General Code
Publishing Corporation. General Code Publishing Corporation is
the official compiler of laws for a number of municipalities.
The oil burner law was passed as Local Law #32 of 1984, and
except for changing a 10 day period to a 15 day period, the law
appears verbatim in the code. Mr. Beane transmitted a letter to
Colleen White, who is our contact at General Code Publishers, on
March 9, 1990. The letter consists of nineteen pages,
highlighting the changes made to the specific laws. This letter
is available to anyone who wishes to view it. Mr. Beane stated
that the Board has decided to keep this discussion orderly by
dividing the process up into six sub areas, each including a
finite series of ordinances. Part one is the Administrative
'
legislation which includes definitions, various Boards and other
general provisions. Part two is divided into sections, ranging
from Alarms to Electrical Installation. The second ranges from
Erosion and Sediment Control to Oil Burning Equipment. The
third session incorporates Peddling and Solicitation to
Screening and Buffering facilities and the Final session we
would address Site Plan Review to Vehicle and Traffic.
Afterwards, depending upon how long the session lasts, the
appendix, where less prominent ordinances have been transferred,
would be addressed .

April_Ab,1991
Mr. Beane stated that the Board is anxious to listen to any
comments and input from the residents.
Mayor Cresenzi turned the meeting over to the floor for
comments.
Mr. Beane stated that they were going to start with part one,
which includes the general provisions, the Board of
Architectural Review, the Village Administrator, the Code
Enforcement, the defense and indemnification provisions, the
Code of Ethics, the adoption of Local Laws, Traffic Commission,
Zoning Board and definitions.
Mr. Heller stated that it was difficult for the Public to
comment on this as they do not have copies of the law, Mr.
Beane's letter or the Code Book.
Mr. Beane will go through the Code
Mayor Cresenzi stated that
section by section.
jAttorney Beane stated that part one is a definition section. He
explained that some of it is new and came from General Code
Publishers. It is a series of provisions which enables the
Village to explain, for example, certain duties of the Village
Clerk, guidelines for keeping the code up to date, penalties for
tampering with the code, etc. For example, the title
Superintendent t of Public Works was changed to Director of Public
Works.
There was an amendment dealing with the Village Administrator,
expanding his powers to permit him or her to represent the
Village in all arbitrations or other administrative proceedings
and also to determine the compensation for all non-union
personnel other than department heads after consultation with
the Village Board of Trustees.
Attorney Beane explained that this allows the Administrator to
set specific salaries for non-union personnel, within the
perameters set by the Board.
Mayor Cresenzi stated that the Administrator makes
recommendations to the Board but the Board determines what the
actual salaries will be. By law, these salaries are voted on at
a public meeting.
Attorney Beane stated that the next section is self explanatory
and nothing is being added to what already exists. Mr. Beane
stated that there is a change to number three of page 5, the
Defense and Indemnification Statute. Section 20-3 was amended
to make our Local Law identical to the State law. This covers
any lawsuits regarding the Village. Section 24-6 is the
acceptance of gifts section and has been changed from $25 to
$75.

April 23, 1991
In regard to Section 24-05 Trustee Solomon stated that the
Village does business with his company. He is a commissioned
salesman and does not deal with the Village because it is not
his account. Will this effect him being that he is a Trustee
for the Village.
Attorney Beane explained that it does to the extent that he is
affiliated with the company but he would not be involved in any
For example le he would
business with his company and the Village. P
not state bu
this company and not from that one". If in
Y an
from P Y
fact your company had a matter before the Board, you would
obviously disqualify yourself.
Mr. Heller questioned if this impacted any officials of the Town
of Rye.
Attorney Beane stated that the Code does, however this
particular sub-section, Disclosure of Interest, does not.
Attorney Beane stated that Section 35-3 states that the time
limitation for a Public Notice is at least five days prior to
Public Hearing. In this compilation there are other sections
that require ten day notice. They are looking at the
possibility of making all of the Notice provisions uniform.
Attorney Beane explained that after the Local Law #1-1991 Public
Hearing process is completed, they will appear before the Board
and say that based on all of the comments of the Board and the
Public, this is the final version of what is going to be
codified, and this final draft will be available for Public view
for any comments.
Chapter 39, dealing with penalties and offenses, was deleted
because we already have uniform penalty and offense provisions
and they put them in the Appendix rather than have them in the
code. In this way they don't have to literally amend and update
the code every time a penalty is changed. Number seven the
Traffic Commission, was deleted and put into the Appendix. Page
six, regarding the Alcohol and Beverage section, was changed by
creating a better definition of the term "Consume". This became
somewhat difficult to enforce because it was not clear. This
definition is one that a number of municipalities use.
Mayor Cresenzi stated that copies of this law would be made for
the following meeting so that the audience would be able to
share and follow along.
Attorney Beane stated that the first substantive law was the
Alarm Law. The only change made, was the insertion of section
70-20. The penalty was $250 or 15 days imprisonment or both,
with each separate instance being a separate offense.
The original law pertaining to Bicycles was changed in that
everything in the original law was deleted except for specific
sections. They created a new definition section 83-1. Attorney
Beane explained that a bicycle cannot be ridden on any sidewalk
in the Village.

April 23, 1991
Mr. Heller questioned the use of sidewalks for the Handicapped.
Attorney Beane stated that it would not apply to them, but a
provision can be included dealing with handicapped people.
The next section Attorney Beane addressed was Blasting and
Explosives. There were some significant changes made to
strengthen the Village's ability to regulate these activities.
The changes appear in sections 87-3, regarding the amount of
bonds. This gives the Director of Public Works the authority to
regulate the bond, depending upon the type of blasting in a
certain area. The fees were modified and raised to $25 to an
amount to be determined by the discretion of the Village Board.
Section 87-5c empowers the Director of Public Works/Building
Inspector to hire, within his or her discretion, an outside
expert to review the permit application and monitor the
activity. If this is necessary, the cost of that outside expert
will be added to the permit fee of the particular person doing
the blasting.
Trustee Solomon questioned if there was a provision in the Code
stating that a Village Official must be on site when blasting is
being done.
Attorney Beane replied that there was no provision, and is up to
the discretion of the Director of Public Works.
Mayor Cresenzi questioned if there was a provision regulating
the storage of explosives and the quantity permitted on a site
on an overnight basis.
Attorney Beane stated that this was not in the Code but they
would look into putting it into the Code.
Attorney Beane also indicated that there is liability
insurance. - A homeowner can sue the blaster directly. In
addition, a bond or a letter of credit with respect to Village
property is also required.
Mayor Cresenzi recommended that the Board adjourn the Public
Hearing until May 28, 1991.
on Motion made by Trustee Daly, seconded by Trustee Solomon the
Public Hearing was adjourned until May 28, 1991.

MAY 28, 1991 - REGULAR MEETING
Ben Miloro, of Hillcrest Avenue stated that on March 25, 1991,
he approached Robert Gerardi, the Ass't. Building Inspector with
a problem. His neighbors are doing illegal work on their home,
and have too many people living there. Mr. Gerardi went to
investigate and stated that there was only one person living in
the house. Furthermore, in regard to the plumbing work being
done, as long as a kitchen is not installed it is legal. Mr.
Miloro stated in regard to the windows they are installing, a
5.7 square foot open area is required. He measured the windows
and they are only 3.9, which are in violation of the fire code.
He stated further that after measuring the windows, he returned
to the Village Office and reported this to Rocco Circosta,
Director of Public Works. This was two weeks ago and Mr.
Circosta has not yet been there to check, Mr. Miloro added.

April 23, 1991
Mr. Miloro inquired how he may protect himself and the
neighborhood from these people making a multiple family dwelling
out of this home.
Mayor Cresenzi stated that this matter would be looked into.
Trustee Daly stated that these people have built two bedrooms
and a bath without a permit.
Mr. Miloro explained that they are doing some plumbing which
will probably require an ejector pump, because it is below the
ground.
Mayor Cresenzi informed Mr. Russo that to verify the many people
living in that space, we will have to get plate numbers and run
them.
Mr. Heller stated that he contacted Dr. Mix regarding space for
the children of both districts to gather.
Mayor Cresenzi stated that it was a great idea to contact Dr.
Mix and he will call him also.
Trustee Daly questioned that a while back the Village Board
approved funding for Allison Maida but has not heard anything
regarding that recently.
Mayor Cresenzi stated that the funding will not begin until June
1, 1991.
Trustee Solomon stated that he spoke with a few of the Trustees
in Port Chester and there is every indication that they were
going to keep the Youth Council, but to what level, he was not
sure. He also stated that the Village of Port Chester is
counting on the $10,000 that the Village appropriated for this
program.
Trustee Pellino stated that the Tree City Awards Ceremony will
be held on Thursday, April 25, 1991 at 12:00 p.m. at the
Arrowwood Conference Center. The Village will be receiving it's
second Tree City Award and are being recognized for the
preservation of trees. Trustee Pellino inquired whether there
would be any representation from the Board.
Trustees Daly, Solomon and Ravich stated that they will be
attending.
Trustee Solomon questioned the status of a variety of items
including the paving of Lincoln Avenue, the Block Grant, the
lighting on Ridge Street, the reimbursement of the Ice and Snow
agreement, and the status of High Point Hospital.
Administrator Russo explained in reference to Lincoln Avenue,
that they have been working on a contract and must wait to see
what bids they receive. The paving will be completed this
Summer.

April 23, 1991
Mayor Cresenzi stated that the Drainage Study must be completed
before any paving is done. He questioned when it would be

Administrator Russo explained that he has a proposal, which is
broken down in phases. This will be sent out to the Village
Board on Friday.
Ms. Demarco, Senior Citizen Coordinator, stated, in regard to
the Block Grant, that they should be hearing from the County
very soon.
Administrator Russo explained in regard to the lighting on Ridge
Street, that the hardware was just received last week so over
the next few months it will be installed.
Administrator Russo stated that we received a reimbursement
check for two years from the Ice and Snow agreement. We still
have more coming to us.
Attorney Beane stated that other than the fact that we have
received an answer from the Attorney representing High Point
Hospital, the matter is in litigation.
Trustee Solomon inquired if there was anything else the Village
could do for the Miller family.
Administrator Russo replied that he would speak to Mr. Gerardi,
who really was instrumental in organizing everything that took
place with regard to that.
