PUBLIC HEARING/DISCUSSION 1. VILLAGE OF RYE BROOK 1995-1996 PROPOSED BUDGET AND ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION Mayor Cresenzi re-opened the public hearing at 7:45 p.m. and asked if any member of the public would care to comment on the budget. There was no further comment so Mayor Cresenzi recommended the Board schedule another meeting for Friday, April 28, 1995 at 4:30 p.m. to deal with the budget and to approve it. Trustee Pellino stated that he received some information this afternoon from one of the Trustees from Port Chester regarding the Nutrition program. We did receive the statistics last Friday for a ten month period which brings us up to date. In terms of their numbers, they estimated that for the contract that we have with them for $15,000, only$7,500 has been received due to the participation level of Rye Brook residents. The Trustee also stated that he is anticipating that a figure somewhere around $7,500 is going to be allocated in their budget in revenue from the nutrition program so I would like the Board prior to our next meeting to consider whether or not we want to go with my previous suggestion of deferring our own program for another year. Mayor Cresenzi also asked Administrator Russo to obtain from the Village of Port Chester, any information that they would be willing to share regarding the Library contribution and the Fire Contract. Trustee Daly questioned if Mayor Cresenzi would prefer to wait until Friday to discuss the budget. Mayor Cresenzi replied yes. On Motion made by Trustee Solomon, seconded by Trustee Daly the public hearing was closed at 7:55 p.m. TRUSTEE DALY VOTING AYE TRUSTEE PELLINO VOTING AYE TRUSTEE SOLOMON VOTING AYE TRUSTEE ZUCKERMAN VOTING AYE MAYOR CRESENZI VOTING AYE On Motion made by Trustee Pellino, seconded by Trustee Zuckerman, a special meeting will be held on Friday, April 28, 1995 at 4:00 p.m. to deal with the budget. TRUSTEE DALY VOTING AYE TRUSTEE PELLINO VOTING AYE TRUSTEE SOLOMON VOTING AYE TRUSTEE ZUCKERMAN VOTING AYE MAYOR CRESENZI VOTING AYE 2 April 25, 1995 William Aughaven of 16 Mohegan Lane stated that with respect to the budget, he has been watching on Cable T.V. and listening to the board going back and forth on several issues. He heard a rumor that the police officer position was to be cut from the budget. He questioned when the Board will deliver information to the public that will determine what direction that they are going in so that the residents may speak as to whether or not they agree on such issues. Mayor Cresenzi stated that there was discussion about the police department at the previous meetings and a budget workshop was held with both the Chief and the Recreation Department that were televised. He asked during the public hearing if any residents had any comments. Mr. Aughaven stated that he liked to listen first, get an idea of what the board is going to do and then ask questions. Mayor Cresenzi stated that for the meeting on Friday, the Board is awaiting information from Port Chester which will provide a better handle on the budget rather than trying to estimate what our Fire contribution and Library contribution will be. Mr. Aughaven stated that if the Board is strongly considering to eliminate a police officer position, he would speak against that. Mayor Cresenzi stated that any budget cuts that the Village makes will impact all the departments and all of the services that the Village delivers to the residents, not just the Police Department. Mr. Aughaven can expound upon his statement regarding the police department on Friday, Mayor Cresenzi added. Trustee Zuckerman pointed out that Friday is not a public hearing. Mayor Cresenzi agreed but added that it is a public meeting so anyone wishing to speak would have the opportunity to do so. Trustee Zuckerman stated that on Friday, the Board should go over the tentative decisions made at the last worksession which brings the budget down to about 8'/2% increases. He added that this should be summarized for the public. Administrator Russo stated that after the second meeting on the budget, the items that we discussed which resulted in bringing the tax rate down to 8.6% were leaving the Assistant Building Inspector position, the Police Department secretarial position and starting grade patrolman position unfunded. Adjustment of assessed value resulted in a minor reduction of the rate. Road resurfacing was reduced by $20,000 and $20,000 was added to consulting fees to help with some additional building inspection services. A number of miscellaneous revenue items were increased, $800 was added to the police department equipment line, we reduced the library contribution to $10,000, the youth services line by $5,000, net service was reduced to reflect the use of a reserve to fund a payment on the debt service for the purchase on the King Street property and we increased the proposed bond anticipation note to include a large and a small dump truck. 3 April 25, 1995 00,978" +-a Administrator Russo added that we had the opening question of the nutrition program which Trustee Pellino just reported on. Trustee Daly pointed out that these things were not really decided upon, only discussed. 2. C & M SIGN CO./111 BOWMAN AVENUE Mayor Cresenzi opened the public hearing at 7:55 p.m. Mr. John Alleva, representing C. Jerry Ploss Co., the owner of the property located at 111 Bowman Avenue stated that this project has been to both the Planning and Zoning Boards in reference to size and location of the sign. He had with him an addition and some pictures for the Board to review. Mr. Circosta stated that they went through the Planning and Zoning Boards and needed a variance with regard to the front yard setback for zoning and that variance was obtained so now they are here tonight to obtain approval from the Village Board. He pointed out that the sign conforms to the Code. Trustee Zuckerman stated that in the Zoning Board approval, there is something that says that if the footprint of the building changes than the sign requirements would change. if Mr. Circosta explained that there was a question at the Zoning Board that if the building was enlarged that the applicant was to bring the sign into conformance, which the applicant is aware of. Trustee Pellino stated that Frederick P. Clark's January 6, 1995 memo refers to the fact that the Village approved a sign of similar size and type immediately across Bowman Avenue from the subject property, however that is a different C1P District, which is a different zoning district and he stated that the sign was grandfathered prior to the adoption of the sign law. Also, Frederick P. Clark Associates did not include in their memo that this was approved under the former sign code, not the current sign code, which is a key point. Mr. Circosta stated that there was some discussion at the Planning Board meeting about that, but what I think they meant was that the sign itself, appearance wise, would be somewhat similar to what is across the street so you would have some type of conformance with regard to the actual type of signage. Mayor Cresenzi directed Attorney Powell to prepare an approval resolution for the May 9, 1995 meeting. 4 April 25, 1995 On Motion made by Trustee Solomon, seconded by Trustee Zuckerman, the public hearing was closed at 8:00 p.m. TRUSTEE DALY VOTING AYE TRUSTEE PELLINO VOTING AYE TRUSTEE SOLOMON VOTING AYE TRUSTEE ZUCKERMAN VOTING AYE MAYOR CRESENZI VOTING AYE 3. RYE HILLS PARK PLAN Mayor Cresenzi opened the public hearing at 8:00 p.m. Dan Paniccia of 14 Wilton Road and a member of the Rye Hills Park Study Committee gave a brief background that dated all the way back to 1966 when an original study was done by Rye Town, recommended that they acquire some land in the event that the old Marist Estate be developed, which is where the existing Hilton property is. They recommended that 6.4 acres be given to the Town for a park. Part of that donation was an easement which was given to the Town which gave them access from Ridge Street up the old driveway directly to the park. The balance of the Hilton land was undeveloped until the Hidden Falls Development. In 1974 the Town developed the park into a neighborhood park which was used up until the mid eighties until it fell into disrepair and was used much less. The access road was never maintained by the Hilton or the subsequent owner and it became a dirt trail through the woods. As a result the park was not used and not patrolled by police or maintained by the Village. In 1987 Rye Brook had Frederick P. Clark Associates prepare a Recreational Study of all of the Village parks and Rye Hills Park was found to be the largest in the Village which was mainly unused with little development. They made a recommendation to build a major central facility there such as a pool complex or a Recreational Center or to keep it as a low intensity neighborhood park. In July 1990, the Village formed a Rye Hills Park Study Committee and we met over the past five years working on our recommendations and eventually schematic plans for the park. We found the access to be a major problem and if there was access in the first place, the park never would have fell into disrepair. These findings were discussed with the Village Board in 1990 and afterwards, we received a letter from the Mayor stating that as part of the Hidden Falls Development, access had been gotten, a piece of land had been donated to the Village which would be located on the new public road in Hidden Falls and provide us direct access from a public road so we were given that as part of our charge, we now have access and we were then to come up with recommendations. In the Fall of 1991, the committee prepared a village-wide survey which was sent out as part of the Fall Newsletter and with the responses received, a report was compiled and presented to the Board in July 1992 which spelled out our recommendations. We recommended to keep it as a low intensity neighborhood park with an access road through Hidden Falls and we recommended a general purpose field, a new tot playground, a hard surface for basketball or other uses, a picnic area and a nature trail. Around the same time, there was a pool study committee also and ultimately, the recommendation was not to construct a pool facility or to build anything major at this park. 5 April 25, 1995 0 t$ � Mr. Paniecia stated that in November 1993, we met again with the Board and were given a new charge of interviewing architects and ultimately making a recommendation to the Board, which we did. The Board recommended that access through Crawford Park would be the preferred access even though we had access through Hidden Falls and our Committee agreed. Rye Town Councilwoman Eleanor Herman was at that meeting and the Mayor asked her to discuss with the Rye Town Board at that time whether or not we could do something together. Bids went out and three architects were interviewed and the architect chosen was Stephen Yarabek of Hudson Pacific Design. A schematic plan was given to our Committee in February 1995 and we reviewed and revised different schematic plans which brings us to this evening, with Mr. Yarabek presenting our best schematic plan to date. We feel it accomplishes everything we out in our original reports and the Frederick P. Clark report. Again, the access we have at this point is through Hidden Falls. We would prefer access through Crawford if possible. We have applied for a grant, which we understand we have a very good chance of receiving and we need to have working drawings ready for June if we are to receive the grant. Mr. Paniccia introduced architect Stephen Yarabek. Mr. Yarabek stated that this is the first year that the New York State Office of Parks and Historic Preservation is giving this type of Environmental Protection Fund Grant which is dedicated to public recreation, historic preservation and environmental projects in the State of New York. The funds are secure because this is a program where funding is locked up specifically for this purpose. In December, he and Mr. Hroncich attended a meeting regarding the grant at Bear Mountain. The Village had agreed to set aside $250,000 for the improvements of this park and the grant we applied for is a total of$390,000, with the Village's share being $200,000, thereby reserving $50,000 for future maintenance and programs at this and other parks. The preliminary cuts were done and we are still in the running as we are in the top 10%. Mr. Yarabek made j references to the site plan and explained that the most striking thing about the site is that it was part of a former grand estate with many specimen trees on the property, the topography is high which permits a view of the Long Island Sound. The design of this park is about the celebration of Rye Brook as a Community, the natural resources, woodlands, natural areas, great specimen trees, and the cultural history being a former estate, which we will try to reflect in the design of this park. The intent of this park is to be a passive use park. After we developed the first plan of the park, we approached some of the residents of Hidden Falls to see if we could switch the access because I had thought that an alternate route from Hidden Falls Parkridge Court would be less intrusive on the landscape. It was at that point that the Hidden Falls residents discovered that there was a road to a park. The plan submitted to the State was based on a photograph and the plan that we have now is based on the actual survey. The road is not very wide and we did not provide many parking spaces because we did not have access before although the park was still used. That there will be a planting buffer along the Hidden Falls property line and the entire residential sides will receive native plantings, shrubs and evergreens, to increase the buffer between the park and private properties. As we proceed up the hill into the park there is a circular drive to reflect the old estate era but most importantly, the ability for police and fire to get in there. The Committee suggested removing the old estate wall on the northern side of the property which is an 8 foot tall reinforced concrete wall. This would be much too costly so we decided to preserve the wall and use it as a delineation for the park to make it a separate park. 6 April 25, 1995 00578!.-j Mr. Yarabek stated that at the great wall, there are 100 year old specimen trees which would be preserved and grading of the area would be done due to many sinkholes from the old foundation basement. In that area will be an open multi-use playing field. Next to the circular drive is a hard surface playing area for rollerblading, free play and possibly for ice skating. A new basketball court will be to the west of the front circle and then throughout the woodlands we would create a series of hard surfaced trails, with a gravel topping so they look natural to allow bicycling, hiking, jogging in a natural setting but also handicapped accessible. We are going to mark the trail with exercise markers and exercise structures. In addition, there will be signage describing the bird habitats and the trees and the history of Rye Brook as it pertains to this site. The trail sweeps around to the east side of the wall where a tot lot would be reconstructed. It will be for ages 2 to 5 which is very needed in the area. The trails continue to the southern end of the park and come to a belvedere which is a steelazebo open to the air but raised u and providing a view out to g p p P g Long Island Sound. Just below the tot lot, we are proposing a counsel ring. This park has been l heavily used by the day camp and this area can be used for storytelling or just a place where people can congregate. At the opening of the wall to Crawford Park would be a recreational building for storage of day camp or park equipment, small shop space to create signs, do repair work, etc. It will have a police emergency phone and allow access for a vehicle to pull into the building. On the second sheet handed out this evening, the first option shows the interdrive from the bend in Parkridge Court which travels through a wooded area behind one of the residential units of Hidden Falls. That would involve quite a bit of grading and tree removal and in essence provide a drive behind an existing unit. There already is an existing cul-de-sac, and in my opinion, it would be wiser to build a new park entry at the end of the cul-de-sac, where it is dead flat, doesn't require the removal of trees, and that way, minimize the impact on Parkridge Court in terms of site gradings. I was hoping to preserve this woodland. The residents of Hidden Falls stated that they are absolutely against access off of Parkridge Court and through the Hidden Falls Development. At the last meeting, we discussed one possibility, which was if the issue of access through Crawford Park could be reinvestigated. One possibility is to build the access road off the cul-de-sac and restrict it to Police, Fire and Maintenance vehicles with no public access, fulfilling the security process. For control, the best way would be signage or gates, but that would have to researched. Another option discussed recently is to build an access road off of the Crawford Drive which would be on the eastern end as you first come up the hill and turn the bend on Crawford Drive. A road would be built to access the park in that fashion. This would incur a great deal more of an expense but most importantly, it would have to be ironed out with the Town of Rye and they would have to check their covenants to see if there was a possibility for direct vehicle access to the park. The third option is to build additional parking at the existing Crawford Parking lot north of the mansion where there is a flat level area that is currently a lawn area that is in poor condition. Mr. Yarabek stated that the Village of Rye Brook could engage with the Town of Rye to expand the parking facility there and provide a handi-cap accessible pathway west of the mansion along the hedgerow between the tot lot and the ballfields from the new parking area into the park. In this case, I would strongly recommend the removal of the wall to permit greater visibility into the park. 7 005786 April 25, 1995 Mayor Cresenzi stated that the Village has been communicating to the Town on a daily basis and although it hasn't been resolved yet, there is movement in a positive direction. Trustee Zuckerman stated that the park design itself provides a unique blend of active use and passive use and commended the Rye Hills Park Committee and Mr. Yarabek, pointing our that the only thing we need to do is work out the access issue. Jay Rosen, a resident of Hidden Falls, thanked the Mayor and the Board for the opportunity to discuss the park plans. The residents of Hidden Falls support the plans developed by the Rye Hills Park Committee to substantially improve Rye Hills Park. Our concern is over the construction of an access road to Rye Hills Park through Longledge Drive instead of access through Crawford Park. Our concerns are over increased public traffic and safety issue. Longledge Drive and Parkridge Court are narrow streets and if cars are parked on both sides of the street, it is difficult for another car to get through. These streets are not built for through traffic other than for resident access to their homes. There are children who play in the streets, people walking their dogs or exercising and increased vehicular traffic is dangerous to them. Full access to Rye Hills Park through Hidden Falls is a disproportionate burden on the homeowners living there. The logical access is through Crawford Park and efforts should continue to accomplish this goal. We support the Mayor's efforts in this regard. If I were to summarize our views, it would be pro park, anti road. Trustee Pellino stated that the subject of an alternate access is a very complicated question because the Town of Rye owns Crawford Park which is open to Rye Brook, Port Chester and Rye Neck residents. Putting improvements into a Town Park creates a tax burden on Rye Brook taxpayers. In addition, that park was deeded to the Town of Rye upon the death of the landowner, Edna Crawford. There are very specific penalties in the will that deeded the property to the Town and one of those penalties of not using the property for it's intended purposes would I P g P P Y PrP be that the Town would lose the property and it would revert to the United Hospital for their use as they see fit. Rye Hills Park is a Village Park being underutilized and one of the things we wanted to accomplish prior to putting any capital improvements into our Village park was to gain proper access. Trustee Pellino pointed out that there was an access road many years ago prior to homes being built. The road fell into disrepair and in 1988 the proposal for Hidden Falls came about. At that time, I was a member of the Planning Board and we wanted to recreate that road as a safe and proper access for a low intensity use park which is what the 1987 Recreation Study called for. Through the entire planning process it was discovered that one of the primary benefits of having that development there was gaining access to the park. One of the requirements of the developer was to provide that access in the form of the land that is there and providing that the Village would then take over, in terms of dedication of those roads and the sewerlines. That was going to be payback to the Hidden Falls development for the access. If we had no intent of developing Rye Hills Park, there would be no real reason for the Village to take on the dedication of the entire road system that goes through what is now Hidden Falls. I hope we can come to a positive resolvement of this issue because the Village needs that ark. P P g P 8 April 25, 1995 0 0 5 7 V Julie Conner, a new resident of Hidden Falls, stated that when families chose to live in Hidden Falls, they did so deliberately, choosing a small, intimate neighborhood with access only to those who live there. This was done with a purpose, a safe place for children and pets. Although I live around the bend from the area where the proposed access to the park is designated, those families that live in the culdesac or dead end, did so with one overriding thought in their minds, the safety of their children. If one were to look at playgrounds and parks, they would notice that they have been planned with easy access to roadways outside the small community. We have a beautiful playground at the elementary school as well as playing fields at the high school. All of these do not intrude on private property, neither does the Bronx Zoo, Prospect Park, Central Park or the Botanical Gardens. All of the parks I have investigated do not go through quiet communities. Presently our children can play outside without fear of strangers or vehicles. This will no longer be the case if the public road goes past their homes. Our community was not built with this in mind. Properties are small, roads are narrow and our homeowners would not have moved their children into this school system if safety first had not been realized. At this time as we all weep at the tragedy in Oklahoma City and the travesty to the children and workers in day care, we must do all we can to safeguard our children. A busy road in their front yards is contrary to this belief. Therefore, may I suggest an alternate route through Crawford Park which will enhance our community, not impinge on our property and be safe for all. The existing road that accesses Crawford park is safe, one way and built in a manor which inhibits speed and recklessness. Trustee Zuckermanuestioned if the residents received documentation from the developer in the p p perspectives or in their closing documents that indicated that this road was planned. David Honessy a resident of Hidden Falls stated that the homeowners and the committee are not saying that it is not in their perspectives or that the Village did not do a lot of diligent work to prepare this park and this road. If the road was already in place when Longledge Road was built, we would not be here at this meeting. We are only asking the Village to work with us to resolve a problem that we felt could have been presented more openly. Trustee Zuckerman stated that we all agree that if we could gain access through Crawford Park rather than through Hidden Falls, it would be preferable. Mayor Cresenzi stated that he is hoping to have some agreement in place with the Town of Rye by June 1, 1995. He added that he will keep the public informed with an update on either May 9, 1995 or May 25 1995. John Silverman, a resident of Hidden Falls, stated that we understand the complexity of the issue. The Hidden Falls homeowners would like to work with the Village Board. A number of the homeowners were worried about the traffic and safety issues. We did do a lot of homework and are extremely appreciative of the efforts being taken to accomplish what all of us are in favor of. 9 i April 25, 1995 005 7F 4. HUTCHINSON RIVER PARKWAY AND INTERSTATE 287 IMPROVEMENT PLANS Mike Galante, the Village of Rye Brook Traffic Consultant from Frederick P. Clark Associates stated that this reconstruction is really the last section of the commitment when the New York State Department of Transportation took over the roads from the East Hudson Parkway Authority several years ago. This section of road is a 21/2 mile section of parkway and is a 20 million dollar project. They plan to begin reconstruction in the Fall of 1996 and the purpose of reconstruction is to upgrade the road, help improve safety and reduce accidents. The roadway will still be a four lane road, two lanes in each direction when it is completed, however, there will be 8 foot shoulders, a jersey barrier down the center and a center shoulder up against that jersey barrier. The best way to describe how that road will look is to drive down the hutch through Harrison, Mamaroneck, New Rochelle and Scarsdale What the state contemplates is to basically keep the new parkway in the same alignment as it is today except for two locations. The first location is a section in Harrison where they are softening up the curve in the roadway to meet today's design criteria. That is about a 1,000 foot section of road that is being shifted to soften the curve. The construction will include the ramps at Purchase Street, and Lincoln Avenue. The State will take two houses which are owned by the Department of Transportation today but the entire project is within State right of way. Mr. Galante explained that towards the Connecticut state line, we come to the Ridge Street interchange, that curve is probably the worst curve in the area and the concept is to soften up the curve and shift the road for 2,500 feet in the westerly direction. They will build a completely new bridge at Ridge Street and new ramps. Administrator Russo stated that there is currently a stockade fence and they are proposing to put noise barrier type fencing by the Arbors. That is the only place where we have fencing on the right of way to the Hutch. There is graffiti on the fence and they are proposing to replace the fence along the Arbors and put it in areas where it doesn't exist. Mr. Galante stated that the noise study in the document before the Board is not a final determination of noise impacts. They will have final conclusions at the public meeting in May. Mayor Cresenzi stated that he would be in favor of landscape berms which would be much better. Mr. Galante stated that as we approach the King Street interchange, there are two concepts to improve the interchange. The first one, alternate one, is to maintain all the ramps with reconstruction but to eliminate the arm ramp travelling towards Greenwich. The concept is that there is no room to have an acceleration lane, it is a difficult place to get on the parkway, many people going towards Greenwich turn left there anyway to get on that ramp. The concept is to remove that ramp and provide a double left turn onto the road in here and eventually onto the parkway into Connecticut. The other ramps would be reconstructed with the existing ramps today. 10 April 25, 1995 005789 Mr. Galante stated that the King Street bridge will be a five lane bridge when it is finished. There would be a double left from King Street onto the Merrit Parkway and there would be no more right turn because the ramp is not there anymore and going towards Anderson Hill Road we would have a three lane approach at the North Ridge Street intersection, one lane will be for left turns, the middle lane will be for through traffic on King Street and the right lane would be to get on the parkway southbound towards 287. That section will be controlled by a traffic signal as well as one down further. The second alternative is very similar. The difference is that the off ramp is eliminated from this concept because it is a ramp that you can't see coming under the bridge. There was insufficient room to create a deceleration lane so you basically have to drop your speed while you are on the main line of the parkway which is a dangerous situation. If this ramp was eliminated, the change in the plan would be to re-add a lane on this off ramp and create a double left turn for someone going towards Anderson Hill Road. Both alternatives will have signals. Trustee Zuckerman stated that he did not see anything in the summary that stated that there would be traffic signals. Mr. Galante stated that he would double check, but on the yellow schematic plan, they show stop bars which is usually an indication of traffic signals and they also stated so. If you go through the analysis, where they show the traffic volume projections to the year 2016 they show that unsignalized areas do not work. Trustee Pellino questioned if the traffic signals at the King Street bridge have to be left turn arrow type delayed signals and if they would increase the waiting time either on the parkway ramp or on King Street. Mr. Galante replied yes and no and explained that when you have a double left turn you have to have what they call a protective left turn so it won't be a simple two phase operation. Trustee Pellino stated that since the Hutch and King Street are both State roads, how is traffic signal control handled-because in cases where there is a village road and a state road, the state road is given preference of the longer time. Mr. Galante stated that it has not been designed yet so I can't say for sure but these two traffic signals would work together. Trustee Pellino stated that what concerns him is the access foreo le coming out of the Arbors if p p g there would be too little green times allocated for the Arbors and to Glenville Road for those people to pass through those intersections. Mr. Galante stated that we have been looking at that, but we have no answers this evening. We need to deal with the State on the issue of whether we need to connect the parkway ramps and those traffic signals with the Arbors and Glenville, which is a real possibility. 11 April 25, 1995 5)7 Mayor Cresenzi stated that the traffic congestion on King Street in the morning is very bad and this could help if there is a way to tie in the Glenville and Arbors light but also to provide a left turn lane from King Street to Glenville Road, while allowing the right lane to continue to be a through lane and allow for continuous flow of traffic. Mr. Galante stated that the State went in and replaced the controller at the Arbors so things are working better because now the two traffic signals are working in conjunction with each other. The actual traffic volumes on King Street are still there. Trustee Pellino stated that we have enough delays on King Street and I am concerned about the backflow from the parkway down King Street near the school which is something that we should all be watching for. Mr. Galante stated that he and Mr. Russo had been discussing that issue and will be meeting with DOT in Poughkeepsie. Trustee Zuckerman questioned if the Ridge Street bridge will be closed at any time because if so, it would cause major traffic problems. Mr. Galante stated no and explained that during construction, one lane will be open in each direction, they are building a new bridge next to an old bridge, which is fairly wide right now. They will shift the roadway on the old bridge to one side and build the new bridge just beyond that on the other side and once they finish that part of the new bridge they will shift traffic back on the old side of the bridge and over the new bridge and then build the other side of the new bridge. The bridge will be built in two steps. Trustee Zuckerman stated that in the executive summary it mentions completely replacing the King Street structure and he questioned what that would accomplish. Mr. Galante stated that the state is looking at another alternative in addition to the ramp configurations, to replace the King Street bridge because currently, underneath the bridge, there are no shoulders. The rest of the parkway will have 8 foot shoulders and when you come under the bridge you loose those shoulders. If they replace this bridge, the main reason is to get more clearance under the bridge. If they build a new bridge, they can consider putting in a deceleration lane for this ramp if they decide to go with this alternative. The only difference is that the clearance under the bridge on the parkway will be wider to accommodate at least shoulders and possibly a deceleration lane going into Greenwich. The Connecticut State Department of Transportation's preferred plan is not to have this ramp. We want the ramp because it would help with the traffic congestion on King Street. In reality, we will probably end up with a diamond type interchange where you have a double left turn. Trustee Pellino questioned what Mr. Galante's opinion of noise impact was for the two homes that were going to be closer to the parkway due to the reconstruction. 12 April 25, 1995 0 a 73 j. Mr. Galante that stated l t at h e would have to find out how much closer the homes would be and in regard to the noise, he is not a noise expert, but he would assume that the noise impact would be increased. At the public meeting, they will have the final conclusions that they will have determined from their study pertaining to buffering, landscaping, etc. We need to stick together and say that we don't want wood fences because everywhere you install wood fences, graffiti follows. Mr. Galante pointed out that in their letter, they asked the Village for comments on the document that is before us by May 8, 1995 which is two weeks from now. What the Village should do is have some comments in writing. The purpose of my memorandum was to give the Village something to think about. The next step is to select a date for the State to come here for a public meeting where they will be prepared to talk about the noise abatement which wasn't included in this document. The idea of the public meeting is to get input from the Board and from residents. Trustee Pellino questioned when the State would be ready to discuss wetland issues at the public meeting. Administrator Russo stated that the plan affects very little wetlands in Rye Brook. There are 11 acres, they are proposing to eliminate 3 and replace 6. Most of this, if not all, is the Harrison section. We need to get on record and state all the areas that we have concerns with and schedule the meeting for May 25, 1995 and have them come here and give us a full presentation. In the meantime I will copy their environmental assessment report and get a copy to all the appropriate parties. Any Board members that have any comments, we will be sending a letter out by Friday to get these issues on record with the state, but we will have a month to develop questions to ask at the public presentation. Mayor Cresenzi directed Administrator Russo to drop off plans to the Arbors, Ridge Street School, Ridge Street Country Day Nursery School and to notify the area residents that will be affected. Trustee Solomon suggested that Royal Executive Park be notified because they will be affected while the construction-is under way. He also questioned if the 287 bridges are going to be rebuilt the same time the Hutchinson River Parkway will be reconstructed. Mr. Galante replied yes and stated that it will be a two year project and they will rebuild the High Street bridge, the South Ridge Street, Bowman Avenue, Westchester Avenue overpass, Route 120n K a d e nnil worth Road which are in Purchase. All the bridges will be closed for a two month period, not at the same time except the South Ridge Bridge which will remain open the entire time because it is a four lane bridge. The State is planning detours and we suggested that we meet with them to voice our concerns. They will also be rebuilding the bridge on 287 that crosses over the Hutch that is a 22 million dollar project. Eugene Grant of 39 Garibaldi Place questioned if any progress was made regarding the information that he submitted to the Village Board regarding the parking on Garibaldi Place. 13 A ri125, 1995 p 0 15 7q�¢ Mayor Cresenzi stated that what he thought was a very good suggestion that Mr. Grant made, the creation of a fire lane in front of the Posillipo Center, was referred to various boards and we are currently awaiting a report back. The Mayor stated that he is well aware of the traffic situation on Garibaldi and is willing to recommend one side parking only on the street as a means to free up that narrow road but that will eliminate parking spaces for the residents. Mr. Grant stated that a recommendation was made to this Board by the Traffic Commission for three lane parking. Trustee Zuckerman stated that he never received that report nor has he seen a report from that commission in months and from what he understands, they have meetings regularly and keep minutes of those meetings which I have not seen in six or eight months. Mayor Cresenzi stated that he heard the report verbally. Administrator Russo stated that he has not seen the minutes either. He did see the Acting Chairperson of the commission who stated that they did support putting a fire lane in front of the Posillipo center and he also stated that he would look into the issue of their minutes and how things were getting back to this Board. Trustee Zuckerman questioned if all the minutes were supposed to be given to the Village Administrator. Administrator Russo replied yes. Mayor Cresenzi suggested that we formally contact the Acting Chairperson and have the commission address parking on one side of the street only. He has no problem dealing with the fire lane issue, but it will not be the end solution to eliminate congestion on Garibaldi Place. Trustee Pellino explained to Mr. Grant that this is a long process because it will need a public hearing. Administrator Russo stated that certain things we can do by resolution and certain things we need a public hearing amending the law, but he would check the Village Code. Mr. Grant also inquired of the new house that is being put up on the corner of South Ridge Street and Garibaldi Place. The permit that they received is supposed to be on a Ridge Street address. It would be zoned differently if the address was Ridge Street. Mayor Cresenzi stated that the first 100 feet on either side of Ridge Street is zoned commercial. Mr. Grant questioned if Garibaldi Place is residential. 14 April 25, 1995 0L5 7 9 i Trustee Daly questioned if the point that Mr Grant was trying to make was whether or not the property is going to be used for commercial or residential. Mr. Grant replied yes. Mr. Circosta stated that the property is zoned two family residential and as part of that zone, it allows for a professional to operate a business in the house that he resides in as long as he doesn't employ more than one non resident employee. Mr. Kilpatrick of 7 Garibaldi Place complained that the signs at West Street and Garibaldi Place that state no dogs, golfing, parking, and park closes at sundown have all been taken down. A few weeks ago there were adults playing baseball in the park and they hit their ball over the Village fence behind my house. I politely told the gentlemen that no ball players are allowed at their age in this park, gave them their ball and stated that the next time their ball comes in his yard they will need a police officer to get it. The fence is falling down and in disrepair. The maintenance men come out there and cut the grass, but they do not maintain that park as far as dog feces in the sandbox. The area neighbors go in there and clean it up and it is not our job to do so. More concern should be given to that park. What is going on with the updating of the park. He rarely sees the police officers policing that park. The police department will not react unless there is a sign up there. Mayor Cresenzi stated that we spent 4,000 to rebuild the ballfields this year and the substantial amount to rebuild the tennis courts a few years ago. Administrator Russo stated that we spent about $25,000 during the past couple of years and we also have the $53,000 grant for the playground which is in the cycle of the county funding which will start in August 1996. Trustee Zuckerman pointed out that the grant was obtained through the efforts of Lori Ann DeMarco who worked very hard to obtain it. Administrator Russo stated that the signs were all taken down because they were illegal and also because they stated "By order of the Recreation Commission" which is not based on any laws of the Village of Rye Brook as that commission has no legal authority to regulate any of those things. We reviewed all that signage and the new signage has been ordered, is more aesthetically pleasing and will be installed soon. Mr. Kilpatrick stated that when people trespass on his property, he has a right to shoot them. If he were to be struck by a baseball that is hit by an adult, he will sue the Village because it is legally a little league field only. Trustee Pellino questioned if the money in the grant includes a provision for maintenance of that fence. Administrator Russo stated that there is some provision, but he does not recall the extent. 15 April 25, 1995 0057(a4 Mr. Kilpatrick stated that the park is an atrocity and the Board should visit some time and take a look at it. The equipment is also very antiquated. Mayor Cresenzi stated that he has been to the park and does not think that it is an atrocity. The antiquated equipment is going to be replaced when the grant money comes through in August 1996. RESOLUTIONS 5. APPROVING AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 158-NOISE Mayor Cresenzi stated that the manager of Pizza and Brew has requested to address the board regarding the matter. Steve Spadaccini stated that he was informed by certified letter from Mayor Cresenzi that Rye Brook was going to be passing an ordinance that we would not be able to use the dumpster after 9:00 p.m. Pizza& Brew is open until 10:30 p.m. on the weekdays and until 11:30 p.m. on the weekends and have been maintaining those same hours for eleven years now. He stated that he does not know what to do because he does not know where he can store his garbage and at the same time be in compliance with the proposed law. Trustee Daly stated that the Rye Ridge Merchants were all asked to attend our last meeting to discuss this issue and they did not attend. She questioned if that dumpster has a storage area where garbage can be stored but not compacted. Mr. Spadaccini stated that there is room on top where the last person can leave their garbage but there is no storage area. I spoke to the owner of the Deli today who was unable to attend so I am speaking on behalf of him also, stated Mr. Spadaccini. Mr. Holby stated that he was not notified and asked Mayor Cresenzi to explain the amendment. Administrator Russo read the amendment aloud. Mr. Spadaccini stated that his interpretation of the law is that he can bring his garbage down but not compact it, only leave it there. That is not a good idea because we have a sizeable amount of trash after 9:00 p.m. Trustee Daly stated through having these public hearings and meeting with the area neighbors we found that they are concerned with the fact that the restaurant has a cart that sounds like it has iron wheels on it and makes a clanking noise and then they take the garbage and make a loud banging sound when putting it into the compactor. Ms. Spadaccini stated that he spoke to the Chief of Police when there were complaints and he has been present when they take the trash to the compactor and it is impossible to do this without any noise involved. It is commercial property and we have been doing it this way for eleven years. If there is a way to get around this, he would like a suggestion. 16 I April 25, 1995 005 7 2 5 Trustee Daly we had more than one meeting and Pizza and Brew was contacted so that this could be discussed with all of the neighbors and this has been ongoing for months. Mayor Cresenzi stated that if Pizza and Brew is open until 10:30 or 11:00 and if they would be putting out trash after that time to get it out of the restaurant, it would be a problem if we enact this ordinance. Trustee Daly stated with all due respect, we did have more than one hearing on this issue and Pizza& Brew as well as other restaurant owners, were notified by certified mail and I think that it is unfair that at that time, they did not attend and now, when a decision has already been made it is being brought up again. Mayor Cresenzi stated that Mr. Spadaccini is here expressing his concerns and deserves the Board's consideration and it is the Boards pleasure. Mr. Spadaccini stated that he can abide by this law and take the trash and leave it on top of the dum ster but I am sure that the Health Department will be at my restaurant to find out why. I don't mean to start this process all over again, but it is not a little bit of garbage. There is a cleaning crew who is out there 11:00 p.m. every night. Warren Holby stated that he would like to speak. Trustee Daly stated that we already held a public hearing on this. Mayor Cresenzi stated that this is not personal with him, if this Board wants to cut off discussion, let the Board vote to call the discussion off. He questioned if the Board wanted to move to cut off discussion off on this ordinance. Trustee Daly stated no, she would like to hear what he has to say. Mayor Cresenzi interrupted Trustee Daly and repeated if anyone would like to make a motion and if there was a second to his motion to terminate discussion and vote on the resolution. The motion was not seconded so he asked Mr. Holby to please continue. Mr. Holby stated that the wording of the law states that they can't operate the compactor. The operation of that compactor makes very little noise, no more than a automobile driving by. If anyone is concerned with it, they should come by, I will turn on the compactor, fill it up and you will have to put your hand to your ear to listen to it. The Board insisted that we put the compactor in and questioned what good it is if we are not allowed to use it. Perhaps the wording could be changed but to prohibit the operation of it in your noise ordinance when it doesn't make any noise is ridiculous. The residents take delight in harassing us for no reason while we bend over backwards to do everything they request which costs us much more money. Trustee Daly reiterated that the problem with noise has to do with the procedure in which it is brought down to the compactor. The reason we had several meetings was to see if we could come up with some options to lessen that noise such as rubber wheels on the carts, etc. 17 it April 25, 1995 005'- Trustee Zuckerman stated that if the compactor is not the actual problem, than we should not be banning its operation. Trustee Daly stated that at the time, that is what we wanted to discuss and that is why we had the public hearings and that is why we sent out the letters. Mr. Spadaccini stated that if the neighbors want to meet at the trash compactor, he would be happy to do anything to resolve the matter. Trustee Solomon questioned why Merritt &Holby did not receive a registered letter or copy of the ordinance. He suggested that the Board table this matter until a meeting takes place at the trash compactor. Attorney Powell stated that the Board directed that the letters be sent out to the Rye Ridge Deli, Edwards and Pizza&Brew. Administrator Russo added that a copy went out to Mr. Sisca and also to the maintenance people at the Philip Morris Building. Trustee Zuckerman added that he supports Trustee Solomon's suggestion of tabling this until the residents, Pizza& Brew and the Board can get together on this issue. Trustee Pellino agreed but added that he would like to see a meeting take place between Pizza& Brew, The Rye Ridge Deli and Edwards and some kind of a compromise on the compactor be made whereby perhaps the compactor would be allowed to continue to be used but at the same time, the merchants try to mitigate the noise levels that they make late at night when depositing the materials into there, for example, rubber tires on the carts. He added that he supports the tabling of this now, but added that this is a very important law to all areas of the Village and there should be a time limit set on it. q Mayor Cresenzi questioned what the merchants did with their trash before this compactor was Y there. Mr. Spadaccini stated that each store had its own dumpster outside its door. Trustee Pellino stated that the compactor seems to be the central issue. Mayor Cresenzi stated that a while back, by request of the neighbors, the bins were removed and we had Mr. Holby install a compactor with a wooden fence around it to reduce the noise and now that is problematic. Mayor Cresenzi questioned if Mr. Spadaccini could meet with a few members of the Board and the residents at the compactor on Friday, May 5, 1995 at 4:00 p.m. Mr. Spadaccini stated that he would be available. Administrator Russo stated that he would contact the area residents. 18 i April 25, 1995 6. AUTHORIZING MAYOR TO ENTER INTO AGREEMENT WITH DOLPH ROTFELD ENGINEERING Trustee Pellino stated that he did not see anything in the agreement that would cover a situation where the engineering firm could come before the Village Board representing a private interest that would forego them doing that or setting up a mechanism for determining the conflict of this. Mayor Cresenzi questioned if a disclosure section would take care of that. Attorney Powell stated that a disclosure section would bring to the Board's attention that there are private applications but it wouldn't prevent them from representing someone. Administrator Russo stated that it would give us the opportunity to decide whether or not we wanted to continue with Mr. Rotfeld's services if there was a matter that we could not resolve. Trustee Zuckerman asked Administrator Russo to go over the fee schedule. Administrator Russo explained that this is the same agreement that Mr. Rotfeld has with Mamaroneck and Port Chester. The fees which have been the basis for his work with us in the past are based on the total expenditure for different types of engineering projects that we would do in the course of the year. We have him working on multiple things now that we need approvals for to get started such as the Rye Hills Drainage, Bowman Avenue Sidewalk, Sewer line at Village Hall, sewer rehabilitation program, Garibaldi Parking lot so it makes more sense to have an annual retainer agreement than to have to come up with a new agreement for every little project. Trustee Zuckerman questioned when we would know that we were going to use him for a project as opposed to having Mr. Circosta give us his opinion on something that may not be very complacent. Would the Board have the authority to ask him to handle a certain item. Administrator Russo stated that if it is within budget, he would have the authority to go ahead and use him as a professional. If it is something that doesn't have a budget, then I would have to propose it to the Village Board. Trustee Zuckerman stated that basically, the Board is giving the Village Administrator a blanket consulting line for his use. Administrator Russo stated that the line is within budgeted amounts in the area that he would be working. Trustee Zuckerman stated that it is good that we have an engineer that we can call on and I would appreciate the services that Mr. Rotfeld would render but currently the Village Board approves these agreements as they come up and I really don't know if I am in favor of changing this. 19 April 25 1995 005798 8 Administrator Russo stated that we always entered into individual agreements and this provides us with the ability to enter into this in a more efficient way instead of having to make separate agreements each time. That would be like hiring Allen Bader individually on every lawsuit or claim that comes up that requires an insurance company to see that we have coverage. Mayor Cresenzi stated that the Village Board would have to approve payment for this so Administrator Russo would be entering into an agreement for the engineering for the project. Trustee Zuckerman stated that it gives the Administrator a lot more flexibility in going forward with these things but on the other hand it takes away from the Board the ability to determine if we should enter into that particular contract. Mayor Cresenzi stated that it has nothing to do with the contract. Administrator Russo stated that he would have to come back to the Village Board to award a certain project after it goes out to the bid and if for some reason we don't award a project, his fee will be based on his cost estimates. Mayor Cresenzi added that Administrator Russo has to stay within the Board's budget for consulting fees. Trustee Zuckerman stated that Administrator Russo doesn't have to come to the Board to get their opinion for a particular project. Administrator Russo stated that it has to be a project that has been approved to go forward. Trustee Zuckerman stated that he does not recall saying no to a request for professional studies on a project that we already approved. Mayor Cresenzi stated that the only change he has heard so far was Trustee Zuckerman's concern and Trustee Pellino's concern about the disclosure section being added to the resolution. Administrator Russo stated that Attorney Powell mentioned that we make it a section in the agreement that would require him to disclose beforehand his consideration taking any work in Rye Brook, Mayor Cresenzi questioned if this had to be approved tonight because he would like to see the agreement prior to approving it. Administrator Russo stated that we could wait until May 9,1995. 20 April 25, 1995 0057911 7. CHECK REGISTER On Motion made by Trustee Pellino, seconded by Trustee Zuckerman, the following Resolution was hereby adopted: RESOLUTION CHECK REGISTER RESOLVED, that the following checks, representing payment for services rendered, have been submitted to the Treasurer's Office for payment and have been certified to by the Village of Rye Brook Administrator: On-Line Checks: 11412-11498 Pre Paid: 10994-10996 & 11408 Payroll Checks: 15566-15992 Environmental: NONE Capital: 2305-2310 Capital Pre Paid: NONE Birthday Run: NONE NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board hereby approves payment of the above-mentioned claims and authorizes payment thereof. Trustee Zuckerman questioned a section pertaining to Recreation's Spring Newsletter and questioned why it came out of the Ice Skating budget. Administrator Russo stated that it was charged under Ice Skating because Mr. Hroncich ran out of money in central supplies and we told him he had to find the money somewhere. Trustee Zuckerman questioned if there will be a budget modification line on that at some point. Administrator Russo replied no. Trustee Zuckerman questioned if when the computer system if totally installed, this would be done in house. Administrator Russo stated that the 1995-1996 budget is predicated upon that because it is $5,000 less appropriation under print mail. Trustee Zuckerman questioned in reference to the 1995 sewer tax, what we are paying sewer tax on. 21 00580o April 25, 1995 Administrator Russo stated that it is for Garibaldi Place and the Highway garage. Trustee Zuckerman requested that a list be provided as to what we are paying the tax on. Trustee Solomon informed the public that he is receiving a $5 refund for overpayment on midget baseball in this check register.

NORMAN ARKAWAY, 12 ELM HILL DRIVE RE: ELM HILL PARK Administrator Russo stated that Mr. Arkaway was concerned with the area at the Elm Hill Park and wanted it cleaned up stating that it could cause a fire. Trustee Solomon stated that a while ago he asked Administrator Russo to have our men go in and clean it up and he said it was a financial burden to do so. Administrator Russo stated that this is an acre of land that we have never touched and the Board will really have to make a decision as to what to do with it because anything that is there was put by people in the Village and is roughly and acre of overgrown land. Trustee Solomon stated that it has become a dumpsite. The property is land locked and is becoming a health hazard as well as a fire hazard. Mayor Cresenzi asked Administrator Russo to speak to Rocco Circosta, Tom Hroncich and Frank Errigo and give us an idea what would be needed to rectify the situation. 10. SAMUEL ACERBO, CHAHIMAN COLUMBUS DAY CELEBRATION COMMITTEE RE: VILLAGE CONTRIBUTION Administrator Russo stated that they are asking for a $500 contribution and we are currently paying $250. After discussions, with today's budget demands, the Board decided to raise the contribution from $250 to $350. Trustee Zuckerman requested that the Treasurer provide the Board with a list of all the contributions that we give money to. He questioned what budget line this comes out of. Administrator Russo replied that the contribution comes out of the Recreation budget. 23 April 25, 1995 005S02 Trustee Zuckerman stated that it would be beneficial to the Board to have a master list of all the entities that we contribute to.
