NOTO, COUNTY LEGISLATOR SHELLEY LAROSE, WESTCHESTER COUNTY NOISE ABATEMENT OFFICER RE: NOISE ABATEMENT SYSTEM County Legislator Paul Noto introduced Westchester County Noise Abatement Officer Shelley LaRose. Ms. LaRose gave a brief overview of where the noise monitors are in the Community today. We do have a noise monitoring system which has been set up for some time. She pointed out monitors number two, fourteen and six which are the closest to the Rye Brook area. There are thirteen original noise monitor sites plus one additional one that was added. They are as far out as five miles from the center of the airport. Our existing monitoring system is pretty comprehensive. The system discriminates and identifies what is aircraft noise and what is background or non-aircraft event noise. The noise from the monitoring site is fed into our office and we go through a very long process to identify aircraft event, what operator caused that event, was it a take off, landing and any additional information about it. We also feed it through different computer systems. On September 7th the County went out to bid for replacement noise monitoring system. There are few components to the system, however it is integrated and very automated and will allow it to measure noise and collect data and actually produce data more efficiently and effectively. We selected by bid, Batson Davis Systems and they have proposed an Airport Operations Monitoring System which is known all over the Country, several airports having this system currently. We will be receiving the most state of art equipment that is available on the market today. The County decided at this time to go forth and purchase this system because the current system that was installed in 1984 is very old and outdated. Some of the technological advancements that have been made are light years ahead of the system that we have today. The-new system will be more user friendly, is fairly compact, has an improved quality in terms of the hardware at the noise monitoring site, the equipment is stronger, built better for bad weather, is integrated and very automated. In addition, the hardware that is currently at the site is getting more and more difficult to replace and maintain because as the years go by, the replacement parts are becoming more obsolete. Also, we wanted to coordinate the installation of the system with the terminal construction because there are a lot of electrical wiring and other mechanics that need to happen so we could basically custom install the new equipment . In addition to that, there is some downtime that is required. We do have a payroll monitoring system so that when the new system comes on we will have the old system also running simultaneously to check the data that is being collected and verify that the system is working appropriately so this will minimize downsizing while changing the system. The recorder that we are going to be receiving will collect the air traffic control frequencies, the noise data and the complaint calls that are actually coming in to the office. 2 U0564-7 January 24, 1995 In the past, all of this had to be done on several pieces of equipment and we had to merge the information together. The 860 noise monitor will be located at each of the fourteen sites and the microphone will be on a telephone poll similar to what we have today and will record all of the noise data coming in. The computer system is called the Sun Spark Work Station which will allow us to collect a great deal of data and allows us to produce reports and things of that nature at a fast speed. With the noise monitor we get a lower noise floor. The noise floor currently on our existing system is 40DBA. The new system will be 28DBA which is the best and lowest one on the market today. On the computer, the software that we will be using is windows based and allows us to view multiple screens at one time so we can look at the airport environment, community, and noise data and any aircraft data that would correspond with that all on one screen. We also have graphics capabilities which allows us to produce color graphics and can be automatically printed overnight if they are routine reports. You can also view multiple bits of data all at once. We also will have a public display in our terminal which will be located on the first floor of the terminal facility. It is used as a learning tool for people who want to learn more about noise abatement. Its an interactive public display for passengers, visitors or airport operators who come through the terminal will be able to, by touching a screen to get answers to questions that they may have. Ms. LaRose concluded her presentation and offered to answer any questions. Mayor Cresenzi stated that now that the County has spent all this money on a new system, what are they going to do with the data. The only reason that complaints are down is because the people think that their complaints are being ignored. Ms. LaRose stated that she does not have a specific answer however explained what her office does, in terms of trying to reduce noise. We follow up with the operators regarding the complaints. There are some situations that we can help and some situations that we cannot change. In many cases we have had aircraft operators who have worked with our office to develop arrival and departure procedures to reduce the noise levels for that operator. She pointed out that overall there is a reduction. Mayor Cresenzi stated that over his home, there is no reduction. What the residents are looking for is for the legislatures to put some teeth in this law. We have now compiled a database and the residents would like to see the offenders made to pay for their violations so that they will learn not to do them and cooperate. Mayor Cresenzi asked Ms. LaRose to explain the benefit of the lower noise floor when the events that disturb the residents are at the higher end. Ms. LaRose stated that the Lower Noise Floor allows us to amend the noise starting at a lower level so it will pick up any noise whether it is non aircraft event noise or aircraft event noise. 3 005G4 January 24, 1995 Mr. LaRose stated that in a situation where the monitoring system identifies an event there is a threshold that that event must create so much noise above the threshold and it has to be for a certain duration and once it is over that duration, it is labeled aircraft or non-aircraft event. The noise floor is really not the big factor, the big factor is how our system currently measures noise and it is going to be the same in the replacement system. Mayor Cresenzi questioned if an average is still used over a twenty four hour period. Ms. LaRose stated that unfortunately, the LDN methodology is still the accepted methodology Nationwide. Trustee Daly stated that if there is an event and the noise is too great, what is currently done? Are fines imposed? Ms. LaRose stated that there are no fines, we have two programs which are the voluntary restraint from flying program and that is between midnight and 6:30 a.m. and those operators that fly during those hours get letters from our office and if we see that there is some sort of trend with the same operator, we call them and try to work it out. By law, we don't have any mandatory curfews and we cannot impose fines or anything further. Trustee Zuckerman questioned if there is any way for the Village to obtain the raw data from the noise monitors upon which the County compiles its reports. Ms. LaRose stated it is available by Freedom Of Information Request. She added that is would probably fill up an entire room is collected for a year as it is fairly lengthy. Mayor Cresenzi stated that this equipment is a great toy, but a total waste of money because he can't see any direct benefits to the residents around the airport with this unless the County creates a noise ordinance based on a single incident event and does something to help the residents. Trustee Zuckerman suggested that perhaps there is way we can access the information directly without disks, directly from the Village's computers to the County's computers. Ms. LaRose stated that some of that data is historical. County Legislator Noto stated that this is going to provide much greater detail in the compilation of the data and one of the reasons the noise ordinance was struck down was because it was not based on actual data. Everything we do there is pre-empted by the FAA so we don't have a lot of independence although we have one of the most stringent stipulations in the Country. We must have enough data to make an application to the Federal Department of Transportation, the Secretary would than have to approve a proposed noise ordinance, we would have to go through a fairly cumbersome procedure to have a noise ordinance in place and if the Village's want to do the same thing, they would be subject to the same requirements we are so it is not that simple, but this system will give us a much broader base upon which to make a case. 4 4 January 24, 1995 005G43 Mayor Cresenzi questioned how much more data do we need to compile to start to take action on. He asked Mr. Noto to inform the County Board that we would like to see some action start as soon as possible. County Legislator Noto stated that the County Attorney informed that there was not enough data to justify, based on federal requirements, because having a lot of data isn't always what you need. You need evidence that the noise is at such a level that it meets the standards that the federal government has set for allowing you to have a noise ordinance and according to the information that we have we are not there yet. The County Board agrees with the Village of Rye Brook, it is a question of being legally able to do this. Mayor Cresenzi stated that the average basis is not going to work. It must change from the LDN average to a single incident event. Trustee Zuckerman stated that as the aircrafts get quieter, the average noise level at the airport is going to decrease but single incidents will become more pronounced so that people will notice them more than if there is a general noisy background so that is should be easier at that point to punish those violators. County Legislator Noto stated that an occasional incident may not be an annoying as an ongoing consistently high noise levels. Trustee Zuckerman stated that they are all annoying but we don't want to advocate keeping all the aircrafts noisy in order to get a noise ordinance. County Legislator Noto stated that Northwest Airlines has agreed to install Hush Kits and we have adopted a resolution asking that the ones using Westchester be installed first and Northwest is contemplating that request. The Office of Noise Abatement Control in the EPA has been unfunded for twelve years and now, much to our surprise, after the 1992 Election it is yet to be funded. ONAC is a lot more stringent than the FAA and they would be much more sensitive to environmental concerns and they still aren't funded or up and running. At our request, Congresswoman Lowey has been actively lobbying the administration to refund ONAC so we can possibly get some help from them. The lobbying is going on at this level and the reason we are here to discuss this tonight is to update you on what is going on but to continue to reaffirm our commitment that if there are people getting out of hand, we talk to the airlines on a regular basis. The airport is here to stay, so with this updated equipment, we can continue to have the most advanced data to help us deal with this other levels of government and the FAA because airports are generally independent of local control. 5 005650 January 24, 1995 Trustee Pellino questioned what type of standards can there be to apply the data that we get to airports our size. It sounds like we are trying to be the trailblazer in terms of establishing a standard and trying to convince the federal government that our standard should get accepted. On the other hand, are we going to be trying to compete with our raw data with other airports such as LaGuardia or Stewart in order to determine, in terms of frequency of events, decimals levels, and so on, that we are some how on enough of a par with a large airport to justify having the noise ordinance in our Community. Do you think we are fighting a losing battle? Ms. LaRose stated that the FAA has come out and stated that airports are to impose a mandatory requirements to reduce or mitigate noise levels. That regulation came out in 1990 and is called the Noise and Access Restriction. There is one airport in the Country currently trying to impose mandatory restrictions to mitigate noise and it is San Jose in California. They will be the trail blazer of trying to get over this hump of how much noise can be generated. The FAA has come back and told them that they must be an airport that creates the most noise, must try to reach involuntary agreements with their operators first, go through an economic analysis of the transportation industries to try to make the comparison between their mitigation efforts and what will happen to the rest of the industry. Trustee Solomon questioned if the County could monitor the single events of noise on their own in addition to what they are doing now. Ms. LaRose stated that the County does monitor single event. All the data is recorded and comes into the system. The levels that you see produced are the average LDN because that is the accepted methodology. There is no methodology that will calculate and tell us something by measuring each single event that occurs. There is a committee known as the Ficon Committee that meets in Washington regarding the LDN issue because it is a concern of many communities. They are looking for a methodology that is different from LDN and not an average. They have gone through many steps in the past three years and have not come up with anything to date and-have not produced a file report, which was their charge. Trustee Pellino questioned if the Federal standards are based on the average noise LDN. Ms. LaRose replied yes. Trustee Pellino stated that there are companies in the business of electronically reducing noise levels by cancellation of sound waves in closed areas. Are there any companies that have the technology to do it in wide open areas. Ms. LaRose stated that it becomes difficult because of the frequencies that an airplane makes. For example, one airport, at a certain point along the ground will have a different frequency than another airplane so now you have this variety of frequencies that are being produced in sound levels and to develop some sort of a mechanical instrument that is going to cancel that sound level is fairly difficult. There is probably a company out there working on it, but it is not known to the public at this point in time. 6 005651. January 24, 1995 Trustee Zuckerman stated that if we can't persuade the FAA to change its standards to we need to go forward to establish our own standards and take on the FAA and see if what we believe is right will pass mustering the federal courts thus causing the FAA to change its standards to those that we deem appropriate rather than the other way around. County Legislator Noto pointed out that the courts have been known to be unsympathetic to try and control noise in airports. Trustee Zuckerman stated that this was prior to us having the information that we currently have. He added that in his opinion, the courts are much more sympathetic to environmental based arguments now, than twenty years ago and if we present the proper data and a rational way of viewing that data, we might find a more sympathetic ear. Ms. LaRose thanked the Board for the opportunity to speak and stated that she had some noise monitoring reports and noise abatement procedures. PUBLIC HEARINGS 2.

MONROE YALE MANN RE: WESTCHESTER SHORE HUMANE SOCIETY AGREEMENT Mayor Cresenzi announced that we would be deviating from the regular agenda to allow Mr. Mann a few moments to speak before leaving to attend another meeting. Mr. Mann stated that the Humane Society would like to get the agreement passed and out of the way and added that he would be happy to answer any questions that the Board may have. Mayor Cresenzi informed Mr. Mann that the Board needed to speak to Administrator Russo and would contact Mr. Mann very soon. 7 005652 January 24, 1995 PUBLIC HEARINGS 4. ST. MARY'S CEMETERY MAUSOLEUM EXPANSION SOUTH RIDGE STREET SITE PLAN APPLICATION Mayor Cresenzi opened the public hearing at 8:20 p.m. and introduced Robert Mascali of Gioffre, Gioffre and Mascali, attorney for the applicant. Mr. Mascali stated that Walter Rooney, the architect, whose plans are before the Board will be making the presentation. John Mastroanardi, who is here from the archdiocese is also present this evening. He stated that this matter has been favorably reported by the Planning Board and after a very detailed and exhaustive review of the application that was originally submitted by the cemetery with very helpful input by the planning board, the plans were revised in a number of respects, most significantly, the elimination of a proposed curbcut onto Ridge Street and the plan that you have before you this evening shows that the curbcut does not exist and there will only be one point of access where the existing access is. Mr. Rooney pointed out on the plan and stated that a small piece of property was purchased by the cemetery to be used for staff and visitor parking. The proposal is to make a small addition to the mausoleum of approximately 800 burial places to the total complex. In addition to that, we are embarking upon a rather ambitious landscaping plan. The parking area will be completely screened from Ridge Street with some evergreen shrubs that will top out at about eight feet. The screening with break the view of the expressway which is not pleasant to look at. We also made it so that the building appears to be lower than it really is. As noted in the scheme, it will be heavily screened with a large number of evergreens to supplement the ones that are right along the road. The trees that we have selected for the planting along the road is one that will mature somewhere between twenty five and thirty feet so fifteen years down the road we won't just have a row of tree trunks that don't really screen anything but we will have foliage during the Spring, Summer and Fall months and then the evergreens behind them in the Winter. The elevation on the cemetery side will provide some tombs that open directly at ground level rather than enter from the inside of the mausoleum. Administrator Russo stated that according to the fence that Mr. Rooney has, it looks as though the barbed wire fence around the cemetery will be removed. Mr. Rooney stated that the barbed wire is going to stay. Trustee Solomon suggested that the way the mausoleum is set up, they may be open to vandalism. Mr. Rooney stated that the mausoleum is completely open and the only security are the gates at the end of each entrance. 8 005653 January 24, 1995 Trustee Daly stated that the Frederick P. Clark Associates memo states that they calculated the allowable height of the proposed addition by breaking up the entire building into sections and based on this amount the proposed addition does conform with the maximum height requirements. Does this mean that without breaking it up into sections, it would not conform? Mr. Circosta stated that the law reads that the procedure that is followed is that you break up the perimeter of the mausoleum into different sections and then get your average grades and heights and fit them all together and get a maximum height. Based on what Mr. Rooney has submitted, the mausoleum meets the requirements. Mr. Mascali stated that this issue was raised at the Planning Board and as a result Mr. Rooney made many changes to satisfy the Building Department that is was completely code compliant with respect to the height and how your code provides how you go about calculating the height. Trustee Pellino stated that this property is in an R2F Zone and under a Special Use Permit. On page 250-24 of our Code, paragraph 4 it states that no portion of any fence or wall that is designed to inflict injury, including but not limited to barbed wire or razor ribbon fences shall be erected in a residential district or anywhere on a lot adjacent to a residential district. I have a problem when we make an exception on the special use permit. Mr. Mascali stated that it predates the Adoption of the Village Code as the cemetery has been there for one hundred years. He added that the Planning Board was anxious that the barbed wire be there as means of preventing people to get in, however, we can look into resolving the matter. On Motion made by Trustee Solomon, seconded by Trustee Daly, the public hearing was closed at 8:45 p.m. TRUSTEE DALY VOTING AYE TRUSTEE PELLINO VOTING AYE TRUSTEE SOLOMON VOTING AYE TRUSTEE ZUCKERMAN VOTING AYE MAYOR CRESENZI VOTING AYE Mayor Cresenzi directed Attorney Powell to work on an approval resolution for February 28, 1995 meeting taking into consideration Trustee Pellino's comment regarding the barbed wire fence. 9 January 24, 1995 005654 RESOLUTIONS 5.

APPROVAL OF SUBDIVISION APPLICATION GARY AND ANGELA STROMBERG 62 BOWMAN AVENUE SECTION 1, BLOCK 23, LOT 4 Administrator Russo read the resolution. Trustee Pellino stated that prior to signing the plat, a permanent easement shall be prepared satisfactory to the Village Attorney. This easement is for the turnaround and we have conditions for turnarounds in our subdivision regulations and questioned if the final plan submitted to the planning board have adequate diameter. Mr. Circosta stated that it does not meet the requirements regarding a culdesac. Trustee Pellino questioned if the Village is being asked to grant a waiver. Attorney Powell stated that there is no turn around. Their property line is going to remain exactly where it is but when they develop the lot, they are going to put a turn around area so people can get around easily, but it is not a culdesac under the code. 10 UU565 January 24, 1995 Mr. Circosta.stated that technically, it is going to improve a situation that exists. Essentially, they could have just put a driveway there and had access. This turn around area came out of the Planning Board and was probably something that we looked at as a benefit to us but in no case is it a public road. It is a permanent easement given to the Village for vehicular turn around but is not considered a public highway. Attorney Powell stated that there is no waiver required. TRUSTEE DALY VOTING AYE TRUSTEE PELLINO VOTING NAY TRUSTEE SOLOMON VOTING NAY TRUSTEE ZUCKERMAN VOTING NAY MAYOR CRESENZI VOTING AYE Attorney Powell explained that it is not really a disapproval until the Board states on the record why they voted no.
