Present were the following members of the Board: Mayor Salvatore M. Cresenzi Trustee Joseph Pellino Trustee Nancy Stein Tunis Trustee Gary J. Zuckerman Also present was: Christopher J. Russo,Village Administrator Lori Ann DeMarco, Ass't to Village Administrator Rocco V. Circosta, Director of Public Works Kenneth E. Powell, Village Attorney Robert J. Santoro, Chief of Police Elizabeth Bottali, Secretary to Village Board 1 PUBLIC HEARING October 24, 1995 J 4 1. MERRITT &HOLBY SOUTH RIDGE STREET APPLICATION FOR A DOCTOR'S OFFICE Mayor Cresenzi opened the public hearing at 7:30 p.m. Brian Dempsey, a professional engineer from Raymond Keys Associates stated that he was here representing this project. We are asking for a waiver on the parking of five spaces. Currently on the site there are 182 parking spaces provided in front of the site, along the side and in the rear of the site and also underneath in underground parking. As per the request of the Village's Planning Consultant, we did a traffic and parking lot count during the week and also on the weekend. We found that peak parking was lunchtime on Saturdays and also during the week which was about 66 vehicles. The majority of people were parking in the front. In the rear of the site, there was only at the most 9 spaces occupied at any one time and in the garage during the day there was 10 spaces occupied. There has always been more than 100 spaces available at any one time, With the addition of the Doctor's office,which by code would require 22 spaces but based upon our practice, it would probably require about 15 which is being conservative with 5 for employees and 10 for patients. There would be more than ample parking on the site. Trustee Pellino stated that according to the report, Monday and Tuesday was checked and clearly Thursday evenings and Saturdays around 2:00 p.m. is when there is the most traffic. Also,the report was done in the Summer when most people are away. Mr. Dempsy stated that in his professional opinion there is always ample parking on the site. Mayor Cresenzi pointed out that if usage were to change, the site could become much more crowded. There is talk of a very high volume tenant coming into the Rye Ridge Plaza and if this same kind of tenant came into 200 South Ridge,this could change dramatically. Mr. Dempsy stated that for retail use it is 5 spaces per one thousand square fee. Mayor Cresenzi questioned signage and landscaping. Mr. Miller stated that at the last planning board meeting signage and landscaping alternatives were discussed. They are proposing a total of 5 signs for just the Doctor's office with a total of 60 square feet in area. Certain signs do not comply with our code and need to be adjusted. We have received the applicants landscape plan and they are proposing 11 pine trees to be located between the existing fence line extending about 200 feet which is in addition to what is presently there. We have recommended that the existing shrubs not be relocated. Trustee Zuckerman questioned where we are with the signage and suggested that Mr. Miller put those comments in writing for both the Board and the applicant. Mr. Miller stated that he would do so as soon as possible. Trustee Zuckerman questioned the parking on the site and the number of spaces on the lower level. 2 October 24, 1995 U 0 O-9 4 o Mr. Dempsey stated that in the rear are 29 spaces and in the garage itself there are 36 and additional parking on ' the side. Trustee Zuckerman stated that most of the Doctor's parking would be on the lower level in the rear. Since very few people would want to park on the upper level to visit a doctor, we should review the lower level. Mr. Miller stated that if a new tenant were to come in,that new tenant would have to conform to parking standards regardless of what the use is. For this use, specifically, we have made the recommendation that a waiver of 5 spaces would not, in our opinion,present a problem, in terms of parking for that site and we have considered some of the impacts of new users coming on line. Trustee Pellino questioned tree preservation on that site which included two maple trees that were in decline and trees in the rear of the property that were damaged. Peter Albani,one of the partners of Merritt and Holby Associates stated that one of the large pines in the back near Mr. Benvenuti's property died and we took it down and did some other permitted work in his backyard which included a retainer wall but have not replaced that large tree. He did not know what the status of the two maple trees were. Trustee Pellino stated that for the next meeting, he wanted to know what the status of those trees were and if in fact they were going to be replaced if they are in decline because according to the standards of the site plan approval, when these trees die or are in the process of dying,it is clearly stated that they need to be replaced. Frank Lanzilli,29 Westview Avenue stated that there are 9 trees in the back that are all dead and the landscaper cut them down already and were not replaced. When the trees were planted, there was a double fence in place and we could not get any water to the trees. Mayor Cresenzi requested that Merritt &Holby work with Rocco Circosta and Steve Yarabek to review this tree replacement issue and development a punch list to solve this problem. Tony Mendicino of 29 % Highview Avenue stated that Crescent Place also has 6 pine trees that have also died and are just standing there. He also stated that he and his neighbors have difficulty getting out of Crescent Place and suggested that the right turn on red be stopped if it is feasible. Mayor Cresenzi directed Administrator Russo to refer Mr. Mendicino's suggestion regarding the no right turn to the Traffic Commission. On Motion made by Trustee Zuckerman, seconded by Trustee Pellino the public hearing was closed at 8:35 p.m. with an approval resolution to be ready for the November 14, 1995 meeting.

AUTHORIZING NEGOTIATIONS WITH RURAL METRO FOR FIRE SERVICES On Motion made by Trustee Pellino, seconded by Trustee Tunis, the following Resolution was hereby adopted: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING NEGOTIATIONS WITH RURAL METRO FOR FIRE SERVICES RESOLVED,that the Mayor, Village Administrator and Village Attorney are authorized to commence negotiations with Rural Metro for the provision of fire services to the Village of Rye Brook. 4 005945 October 24, 1995 Mayor Cresenzi stated that this item is on the agenda due to the lack of negotiations for the settlement of this mater between the Villages of Rye Brook and Port Chester. On October 10, 1995 I was authorized to enter into an agreement for a fire study to be funded jointly by Rye Brook and Port Chester and to date,there has been no response back from Port Chester as to whether or not they are willing to participate in this study. On October 6, 1995 we sent Port Chester and entirely new proposal where we made some maior concession in order to expedite a settlement to this contract and have received no response to that proposal to date. We have been planning for the worst all along and our alternative plan is currently in place. We are currently modifying the Village Highway Garage steel beam to allow us to house necessary fire equipment. There is a trailer down there that will be used as a temporary housing structure for fireman and it is being updated and renovated. We are on schedule if we need to make a move, we are prepared to do so. Also, we have requested the Village of Port Chester give a 90 day extension to the contract and a major portion of that request was based on the fact of getting the fire study back funded by both communities,do an analysis of the study and try to reach some concrete conclusion as how to better serve both communities with fire service. All we have gotten out of that, is that Port Chester has called for a public hearing on this matter for November 1, 1995 but other than that there has been no contact. If we have to move, we are prepared and we will do so,but at the same time we are trying to keep the door open for further negotiations in an attempt to reach an agreement. Unfortunately, it takes two parties to want to reach an agreement. TRUSTEE PELLINO VOTING AYE TRUSTEE TUNIS VOTING AYE TRUSTEE ZUCKERMAN VOTING AYE MAYOR CRESENZI VOTING AYE Rob Moore questioned on a more permanent basis, and what the selection has shown as he has heard mention of the County property that is on Ridge Street and the old compost site on King Street. Mayor Cresenzi stated that those are two that are being looked at but there are several others which is the reason for negotiating and I don't want to compromise now. Part of the overall fire study that we were hoping to jointly do would be to recommend types of equipment and location of a fire house in Rye Brook. We had a fire study done in 1992 which made specific recommendations as to needs and requirements. As far as specific sites, we are not ready to comment on that now other than to say that we are looking at several different ones. Mr. Moore questioned if the Board had a timetable. Mayor Cresenzi replied no. Aniela Moore of Woodland Drive questioned when the Mayor would be ready to comment on the sites and if the residents will know prior to it being decided and too late for input. Mayor Cresenzi stated that there will be a public hearing because a bond resolution will have to be passe. 5 October 24, 1995 00 59 4 j Trustee Zuckerman stated that the facilities committee will be looking into different sites and their meetings are open to the public. Currently,the nearest site is in the Village of Port Chester and we don't feel we are getting equal service for the money we are paying. Mrs. Moore stated that twenty years ago,Rye Town was serviced by the Village of Port Chester and there was never a problem and residents were as far away then as they are now. The only problem is that are taxes will go up. Mayor Cresenzi stated that the Village Board is trying to plan for the future growth of Rye Brook. There is a plan before the Planning Board as we speak at the old Atrium building for 192 rental units. There is also some significant movement at High Point Hospital which is 140 acres. Trustee Zuckerman stated that twenty years ago Royal Executive Park did not exist and they are growing more and more. Also, when Rye Brook was created,the bill that we paid to Port Chester for fire services was about $180,000 and currently, they are requesting $725,000. We are trying to negotiate with them to continue the service but it takes two to negotiate. Trustee Pellino stated that Port Chester informed us that at the end of a three year time period we would be paying $1,000.000 for fire service and based on this first year,they are on target with brining Rye Brook's level of payment to that level. Had we done nothing about it until this point,we would still have no equity, still have no say in how monies are generated or spent. I view this as a correction of a bad financial situation for the Village of Rye Brook but also a long range planning issue for the next five to ten year term when we can see a significant growth in development and population and one of our first duties is to see to public safety services for all the residents of this Village, Trustee Zuckerman pointed out that included in our share of the fire service bill,we are actually paying the salaries of Port Chester Officials such as the Village Manager and attorneys which we don't think is fair. We feel that we are starting to be forced out. For example,Port Chester Fire Department has served us for many years and yet we wonder why representatives of the Village of Rye Brook were not invited to their Annual Inspection. 4. APPROVING DROUGHT RESPONSE PLAN PREPARED BY CONNECTICUT-NEW YORK AMERICAN WATER COMPANY On Motion made by Trustee Pellino, seconded by Trustee Tunis,the following Resolution was hereby adopted: RESOLUTION APPROVING DROUGHT RESPONSE PLAN PREPARED BY CONNECTICUT-NEW YORK AMERICAN WATER COMPANY RESOLVED,that the Village of Rye Brook Board of Trustees approves the Drought Response Plan dated July 13, 1995 prepared on behalf of the Connecticut-New York American Water Company to be implemented by the Town of Greenwich, Town of Noroton, Town of Rye,the City of Rye, the Village of Port Chester and the Village of Rye Brook. 6 005947 October 24, 1995 Administrator Russo stated that the purpose of this was to give our Water District our general approval of the concept of equalizing the drought restrictions between the Connecticut side and the New York ones. Attorney Powell is working on a local law to have uniformly accepted by all the members of the water district to approve so we all have the same regulations in place when a drought is declared.
