He added that the prices were much lower than they expected and that the price of asphalt was only $39 a ton, whereas two years ago, it was $55 a ton. Mr. Heller of Lincoln Avenue questioned if the Rye Hills Study has been completed and if it is included in this contract. Administrator Russo explained that the full Drainage Study of Rye Hills has not been completed but this contract includes resurfacing the road, concrete curbing, restoration of the sidewalk, grating, and filling and seeding the right of way in the area to Jennifer Lane. He stated that a line below and South of Sunset Road must be added. William Aughaven, a member of the Planning Board, questioned if proper retainages were figured into the contract to insure that everything will be done accordingly. Mr. Circosta stated that Performance Bonds are required in all contracts. As for retainage, there are no requirements after completion. Mr. Aughavin questioned if something were to go wrong, how would the Village be protected. Mayor Cresenzi stated that there will be inspections on a daily basis when the curbing and sidewalks are put in. Mr. Aughavin also questioned if the quality of asphalt is tested. Mayor Cresenzi stated that asphalt is tested differently than concrete. Mr. Circosta added that all plants are required to be state approved and they produce a state mix. He stated that he has yet to see any problems with the type of mix in this area. Administrator Russo added that Bilotta Construction Company operates their own plant, which many of the contractors do not. He has used the same mix in other communities during the past few years. 10 - 001")5�� July 23, 1991 Trustee Pellino stated that a few months ago there was water sprouting from the south bound lane of Lincoln Avenue. He questioned if that was9 oing to be corrected. Mr. Circosta stated that this problem has been incorporated into this contract. A pipe will be brought across and a curtain drain will be installed along the easterly side of Lincoln Avenue to catch some of the ground water. Trustee Solomon questioned if we require references and the Mayor informed the Board that we do.

HUMANE SOCIETY CONTRACT RENEWAL On Motion made by Trustee Daly, seconded by Trustee Ravich, the following Resolution was adopted: RESOLUTION WESTCHESTER SHORE HUMANE SOCIETY June 1, 1991 - May 31, 1992 RESOLVED, that Mayor Salvatore M. Cresenzi is hereby authorized to execute an Agreement on behalf of the Village of Rye Brook with the Westchester Shore Humane Society for providing animal control services to the Village of Rye Brook, for a one-year period of time, commencing June 1, 1991; and be it FURTHER RESOLVED, that pursuant to the terms of said Agreement, the Village shall submit the total sum of $14, 500 to the Society; payable in quarterly installments of $3,625. Administrator Russo explained that last month this agreement was tabled so that it may be changed from a two year contract to a one year contract so that the Village could negotiate with surrounding communities regarding dog control. Trustee Daly questioned section 10-B referencing the Village having to pay a yearly fee in the event the agreement is broken. Administrator Russo explained that it meant any monies that the Village may owe them would have to be paid. - 11 - j 001.95-i I July 23, 1991 He added that there have been recent deliberations with Rye City, and Port Chester and the Humane Society regarding this and the result is that the Village cannot do any better on this contract. They discussed eliminating patrol in the three communities and having an on call patrol five days in all communities. The Humane Society has only two vans and two drivers and are unable to reduce their costs any further. They run on a shoe string with a few volunteers and a few hourly people. The Village is mandated to have the services of the Humane Society. Trustee Solomon questioned the documentation of the Humane Society and how often they were going around the community. He suggested that perhaps the Police Department could keep a look out for them. Administrator Russo stated that he would speak to the Chief of Police on that issue.

PHILIP MORRIS MANAGEMENT CORPORATION By; Dated: THE ASSESSOR OF THE VILLAGE OF RYE BROOK AND THE TOWN OF RYE By; Dated: PORT CHESTER-RYE UNION FREE SCHOOL DISTRICT #4 Dated: President, Board of Education TOWN OF RYE By; Dated: Donald B. Gioffre Supervisor VILLAGE OF RYE BROOK By; Dated: Salvatore M. Cresenzi Mayor Attached to this agreement are copies of all resolutions of the municipalities involved authorizing their respective officers to execute the agreement. 15 - 0019 G. July 23, 1991 I Attorney Beane stated that the agreement that this authorizes the Mayor to sign was negotiated by representatives of the Town of Rye, the Village of Rye Brook, Philip Morris and both School Districts. The consensus was on behalf of the Village of Rye Brook, Town of Rye and both School Districts that the reductions for assessment that are included in this agreement were fair and equitable and were in line with what the Village's own experts believe would happen if the tax certiorari proceedings were brought to trial. They were based upon appraisals done for the Town and the Village in 1986 and they were examined by the Board and Mr. Beane himself, therefore coming to the conclusion that the reduction and assessments were well within the parameters of what our appraisers valued the property at. As a result of this agreement there will be no pay back or direct loss of revenue. This arrangement is for five years, up until 1996. It will be approved by Philip Morris and will bind any successors of Philip Morris, which means that if there is a merger or some type of acquisition, they will be bound by this agreement. Philip Morris has agreed not to challenge these assessments as long as they are maintained the same. Trustee Solomon questioned what the loss would amount to in real dollars. Administrator Russo stated that we will lose a little under $300,000 through 1996. Mr. Heller commented that the only School District that is being affected is District #4.

APPROVAL OF LITIGATION EXPENSES HIGH POINT HOSPITAL on Motion made by Trustee Ravich, seconded by Trustee Daly, the following Resolution was adopted: - 18 - 0019614 July 23, 1991 RESOLUTION LITIGATION EXPENSES - HIGH POINT RESOLVED, that the Village Administrator be hereby authorized to expend funds necessary to cover legal expenses associated with the claim against High Point Hospital regarding the ownership of property offered for dedication to the Village, by High Point Hospital in 1986. Attorney Beane stated the Village commenced an action to confirm the Village's title to 11 acres of property which the Village believes was dedicated by High Point Hospital. As of this evening we do not have in our possession a signed deed from High Point Hospital to the Village, however we have a Village resolution that was based on the dedication that included a deed that the Village passed after an enormous amount of negotiations in efforts to resolve this problem voluntarily without requiring any litigation. The Village was constrained to institute a lawsuit to secure the title to the property. That lawsuit is pending in the Supreme Court in the County of Westchester. High Point Hospital's Attorney has made a motion of summary judgement, which means based on the law we are not entitled to the property but instead High Point Hospital is entitled to continue to own, on record, the property. That motion is being currently litigated and will be fully submitted as of tomorrow. The Village will submit a Surplice answering specific actual allegations. We are very optimistic that we will be victorious and be able to confirm title to that parcel of property, which we have been entitled to since 1986.
