1 6. POOL FEASIBILITY STUDY PROPOSAL
The Mayor asked Trustee Filipowski,who has voluntarily. been
involved with the Pool. Study Proposal, to open the meeting.
Trustee Filipowski. explained that several. people have been
meeting on a voluntary basis and have come up with the name of a
man who does pool planning for municipalities throughout the
country and in Westchester County.
He then introduced Lori Landes, also a member of the group who
has met with Mr. Raffaelli to speak of her interactions with
him.
Lori expressed her concerns about the lack of a Pool. in our
Village. The group contacted other Municipalities which have a
pool and all recommended the same individual: Larry Raffaelli.
He was highly recommended as a Pool Consultant and Engineer.
Mrs. Landes stated that a pool in the Vill-age would be well
received and very popular. She feels it would enhance our camp
program, property value and also the desire to live in Rye
Brook. She also felt that it would be a way to bring the
community together, since we have two different school districts
in Rye Brook.
John Haley, also a member of this volunteer group, was also very
impressed with Mr. Raffaelli, who has been in this field for the
past thirty years, working throughout Westchester and also in
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Connecticut. He stated that Mr.
Raffaelli would be able to be our Consulting Engineer and has
proposed to do a formal study for $3000.00. The study would
involve an inspection of sites within the Village in order to
recommend what size pool would be appropriate for our Village.
Somers, who has just built a pool, has provided us with
information from thirteen communites who have a pool. Each of
these communities uses the pool in their summer camp program.
Mr. Raffaelli will also provide us with information on the cost
of development.
Mayor Cresenzi suggested that the Board invite Mr. Raffaelli to
one of the June Board meetings at his convenience and have him
speak to the Board. lie can answer questions that we need
answered at that time.

Ken Heller suggested that we do a survey and find out what our
potential use is.
Trustee Ravich stated that before a survey we must do a
feasibility study.
Ken Heller suggested a Town Pool. The Mayor stated that would
be counter.-productive and would destroy the lifesyle that this
Village is accustomed to.
