measurements in decibels and urged the elimination/relocation of all residential construction and actively
used common open space to outside of the 75 Ldn noise contour. The last change was under land use
and zoning regarding noise sensitive uses and airport noise control and land use compatibility for
Westchester County Airport. Mayor Cresenzi asked Mr. Miller if 10 years ago the Westchester County
Airport was concerned with the residents of the community to have included the compatibility of the
Airport with surrounding residential projects.

1. A PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING THE SENIOR HOUSING APPLICATION AND
ZONING TEXT AMENDMENTS FOR THE GRANT STREET SENIOR HOUSING
APPLICATION:
Mayor Cresenzi announced that they would be returning to the public hearing section of the agenda now.
The first item on the public hearing section was an item regarding the Senior Housing application and
zoning text amendments for the Grant Street Senior Housing application. Christian Miller discussed why
there was a second hearing and some of the memorandums that he submitted to the Board last week.
The public hearing was reopened because of a minor inadvertent omission of circulation from the City of
Rye and the Town/Village of Harrison.
The public hearing was on the zoning text amendments themselves. Some additional analysis had been
done regarding noise and air quality impacts from Interstate 287. The noise analysis evaluated 8
locations. The highest decibel readings were adjacent to I-287 and they were 80 decibels. 15 feet back,
which is in the vicinity of the closest houses, they were 72.7-74 decibels. Another 120 feet back the
noise measurements were 62-63 decibels. Overall, they were 70 decibels. Measurements were taken on
a weekday afternoon when traffic was heavy. At the end of Grant Street the reading was about 72
decibels. North Wyman Street and Bowman Ave. and Westchester Ave. (a completed senior
development) were also looked at. Based on typical construction methods that the applicant would use in
this project, noise would meet the HUD standards for indoor requirements. He felt that this project
would not have a significant impact on future residents in terms of noise from 1-287.
A study based on National Ambient Air Quality Standards for carbon monoxide admissions was also
done. The computer model used was endorsed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S.
Dept. of Environmental Conservation, and the Federal Highway Commission. Christian Miller found that
the proposed development would not exceed the 1 hour and the 8 hour criteria for maximum emissions of
carbon monoxide.
Mayor Cresenzi asked the Board if they had any questions. Trustee Pellino asked about building heights
that were proposed at 35 ft. which must be corrected to 30 ft. to meet the Village's zoning ordinances.
Trustee Pellino also questioned the maximum potential development of the site under present zoning
because two 2-family houses would not be allowed under current zoning ordinances. Trustee Pellino
then asked about total anticipated water usage because in the plans it stated that 26 families would
probably use 500 gallons of water per day. Trustee Pellino felt families would use more water. Christian
Miller said he would make the necessary changes. Trustee Pellino asked for a document indicating the oil
tank that was on site was dealt with properly. Trustee Pellino has only seen a letter several years old
from the cemetery attendant to the Mayor stating that the tank was drained and would be filled with sand.
He wanted to see a more definitive document from the oil company or from an environmental agency.
Trustee Zuckerman referred to a document from the oil company stating that the tank had already been
removed. Trustee Zuckerman asked if they were detached one family houses or multiple family houses.
He also questioned the impact on air quality so Christian Miller discussed SEQRA. With respect to air
quality, he reiterated that impacts on air are minor.
Mayor Cresenzi asked Administrator Russo if he wanted to comment on the fuel tank. Administrator
Russo said that the EAF was revised. The zoning had been changed to 72 family units, the water flow
had been changed to 5200 gallons per day, and the height had been corrected. He had not received an
additional letter but discussed the matter with the consulting engineer about having verification. Mayor
4
January 7, 1997
Cresenzi asked Administrator Russo to read a letter from Lanec Fuel/Oil Company dated December 10,
1996. It stated that in 1991, they removed and disposed the gas pump and gas and that the oil tank was
filled with sand.
Mayor Cresenzi asked if anyone from the audience had any comments. Joe Siclare, a Grant Street
resident, asked how people could live with 80 decibels of noise all the time. Mayor Cresenzi said that
F.P. Clark did the analysis for the air, noise, and traffic studies to the satisfaction of the Board. Mayor
Cresenzi further stated that Mr. Miller is employed by F.P. Clark & Associates, and the Village contracts
his services through them. Mayor Cresenzi said that he would let Mr. Miller comment on Mr. Siclare's
question. Christian said that 80 decibels was measured at the property line facing I-287 and that it would
be the loudest. No units were proposed to be located in an area that would not meet HUD standards.
Based on HUD standards, 75 decibels would be permitted provided that the applicant could get an
interior noise reduction of 20-30 decibels. This is achievable through common construction practices.
Christian Miller said that they measured a 30 decibel or more noise reduction. Joe Siclare questioned the
existence of a traffic survey. Christian Miller said that the survey was conducted in November and
contained additional information regarding where the cars were coming from and where they were going
and at what time they drove by. The traffic study was performed at various times during the day to find
the peak hour so as to record the worst possible conditions. Though Joe Siclare showed displeasure, the
Mayor said that the Board was very pleased and satisfied with the results.
Peter Tallerico of 64 Grant Street questioned the number of units of senior housing. Mayor Cresenzi
answered that the County established its recommendation of 114 units of standard housing Village-wide
and that Rye Brook would probably have less than that. The current 26 family configuration would have
less of an impact than two-family housing. Tallerico also spoke about the Federal Land Use
Compatibility Guidelines and how 70-75 noise decibel zones should be prohibited. He also asked if the
Village Clerk received a letter from him dated November 30th regarding the gas/oil tank and a request for
SEQRA notification. Administrator Russo said that the letter was received. Peter Tallerico also
questioned soil testing. Mayor Cresenzi said that if there were hazardous materials in the soil they have
been there for a long time and have remained static and stable. Mayor Cresenzi also said that the Board
might opt for an outside impartial environmental agency to perform some soil testing.
Ben Miloro of Hillcrest Avenue and Garibaldi Place questioned the amount of parking for the
development. Mayor Cresenzi said that there would be 35 off-street parking spaces for 26 units. Mayor
Cresenzi also said that the Town of Rye, the Village of Port Chester, the Town/Village of Harrison, and
the City of Rye were all notified of the zoning changes. Ben Miloro claimed no one was notified.
Carlo Mendoza, a Rye Brook resident, also questioned parking and traffic. Mayor Cresenzi said that the
current 26 single family units would have less of an impact on parking and traffic than two family housing
would have on traffic and parking.
Ken Heller of 22 Lincoln Ave. first said that the senior housing should be soundproofed because the noise
from traffic would be too loud. He then asked about soil testing and said that test borings should be
done.
Mr. Larizza said that there would be a minimum of 15 units that would be affordable. He said that his
statement could be put in writing.
5
January 7, 1997
Johanna Kmetz of 5 Genna Way in Port Chester asked if the units would be available for Port Chester
residents. Christian Miller spoke about the priority system where the units would first be available to Rye
Brook seniors through a lottery. Then they would be available to the relatives of Rye Brook residents,
then to Rye Brook employees, then to residents of the Town of Rye, then to residents of Westchester
County, and so on. The units would become available to Port Chester residents after the aforementioned
residents have been offered units. She asked why it was necessary to have two senior developments. The
Board said that the total between the two would be less than the 114 County recommendation.
Joe Siclare said that he asked the Chief of Police if he had taken a survey of the number of accidents.
Siclare said that the Police Chief has a record of reported accidents but is unaware of many more
unreported accidents. Joe Siclare said that the traffic problems should be attended to because safety is
important. Joe Siclare said that children walk to school alone and he urged the Board to think of safety.
Ken Heller questioned if there would be affordable units there. Mayor Cresenzi said that he would like to
see affordable units but that he was not sure. Trustee Strum said that the governing body of the
municipality determines where the 114 units would be located. The Village thought that the number was
high for the size and geographical distribution of Rye Brook. It was speculative as to how many
affordable units there would be. Ken Heller said that the units should be spread over the entire Village.
Mayor Cresenzi said that the High Point Village was preliminary and that he could not commit to that
tonight. Trustee Zuckerman commented on the designation of affordable units for Village employees.
Ken Heller said that senior housing and affordable housing are different. Trustee Zuckerman said they
are not sure how affordable and senior housing are counted under the 114 unit County recommendation.
Sam Greto of West Street said that if this was approved, the Village of Rye Brook should build sidewalks
from Grant Street to Garibaldi. Trustee Pellino said that the curb and half of the street are in Port
Chester. Trustee Pellino said that project was approved by the Village of Port Chester Board and that his
proposed sidewalks would be built in Port Chester. The side of West Street that has sidewalks was in
Rye Brook. Mayor Cresenzi asked if anyone else wished to comment. Mayor Cresenzi asked for a
motion to close the hearing. The Board members unanimously agreed to close the public hearing.
2. RE-CONVENING AND CONTINUING THE PUBLIC HEARING ON THE
SUBDIVISION APPLICATION FOR BLIND BROOK ESTATES BY PETER MURRAY
FOR THE PROPERTY AT 998 KING STREET:
Mayor Cresenzi announced that the next hearing on the agenda was reconvening the public hearing
concerning the Blind Brook Estates at 998 King Street. Peter Murray was the applicant. Mayor
Cresenzi called the meeting back to order. Ralph Mastromonaco asked the Board to hear comments and
then have the public hearing closed. Mayor Cresenzi asked Ken Powell for legal advice. Ken Powell said
that he didn't think you had to close the hearing for the review of an alternative plan. Mayor Cresenzi
reiterated some of the general comments such as another driveway onto King Street and no one really
wanting to see it, lot lines and their straightness, drainage, and water runoff. Mayor Cresenzi wished to
discuss the four lot plan. Ken Powell asked if he was applying for a four lot or five lot plan and if he was
applying for two separate applications. Mr. Murray said he would like to draw a five lot as an alternative.
Trustee Zuckerman said to put aside the five and look at the four lot plan. Mr. Mastromonaco said it was
the same road system and there were fewer impacts because there was one less house. Mr.
Mastromonaco added that the plan spoke for itself because it was just one less house.

January 7, 1997
Rhoda Fidler of King Street said that she knew she lived on a high traffic street near an airport, but she
believed that it was precious because it was beautiful and had character. She never imagined that
properties would go undeveloped, but never pictured a proposed road running by her side property just
because a developer wanted to make more of a profit. She added that the road would have a large
impact on the quality of living in her neighborhood. She also said that specimen trees in the area would
be affected. Mayor Cresenzi asked if anyone else would like to comment from the floor.
Milton Berner, a representative of the Blind Brook Club, spoke about the existing lawsuit between the
Blind Brook Club and Peter Murray& Harold Goldberg. He said that there was an injunction preventing
the construction of more than two dwellings. Milton Berner also said that the Blind Brook Club entered
into an agreement for two lots in 1957 and that the Blind Brook Club objected to the four and five lot
plans. He further said that there was drainage and sewer problems. Milton Berner urged the Board to
wait until the court decided on the covenant. He asked the Board to wait until the court decided on the
covenant restriction, before considering a more formal application of the alternative plan.
A King Street resident urged the Board to wait for a court judgement and he also spoke about dangerous
traffic on King Street that would hurt the precious ambience of that area.
Henry Morganbesser of 1007 King Street spoke about the increasing number of accidents occurring on
King Street due to high traffic volume and speeding cars. He also said that more driveways would add to
the confusion and increase the number of accidents.
Howard Bernstein of 39 Country Ridge Drive North spoke about the small sewer pipe that would add to
the poor drainage. He also said that there were no drainage or hydrology reports in the building file.
Trustee Tunis said that the cartons have not been unpacked from the Village Office move from 90 South
Ridge Street to 938 King Street.
Geri Chapman of upper King Street said that beautiful trees would have to be cut down on the Goldberg
property and that they should not be cut down.
Howard Bernstein read a section of SEQRA requirements concerning environmental impacts regarding
land use and community character. He asked if there was a federal or state law on cutting down trees.
Mayor Cresenzi said that there was a Village law.
Applicant Peter Murray of 762 King Street spoke about plans to mitigate concerns raised by neighbors.
He said that a four lot plan would have less impact. Lot 1 was made to face the new road. By removing
one of the houses, the impervious surface area was reduced which increased the drainage. Hydrology
reports were done regarding the four lots. The sewer was a public sewer which could be tied into by
joint property owners. Regarding the character of King Street, the Country Ridge Estate Subdivision had
already occurred; therefore there would be no dramatic changes because the development would fit in
well with the surrounding area. Mr. Murray asked that the hearing be closed after all of the public spoke.
Milton Berner said that the conditions for the four lot plan must be in writing. Christian Miller said since
this is a mitigation plan, it is encouraged by SEQRA. Christian Miller also said that the original EAF was
relevant and we should continue under SEQRA.
Phyllis Bernstein of Country Ridge Drive North wanted to see the hydrology report. She also suggested
7
January 7, 1997 00631..
the homeowners could take pictures and do their own hydrology report. She also asked that no action be
taken until the next Board meeting. Mayor Cresenzi said that there were a couple of issues at hand such
as on-going litigation between the Blind Brook Club and Mr. Murray. Mayor Cresenzi said that he
would prefer to wait for a decision from the court. However, the Board could not delay the presented
application until the court ruling was issued. The applicant had made a subdivision application based on
existing zoning laws, and he insisted that the Board must apply the Village codes to the application even
though a court of law could overturn the decision.
Mayor Cresenzi asked Dolph Rotfeld if he had any comments on the drainage. He said that there were
many comments that would be taken into consideration.
Steve Steinberg, a neighbor of Mr. Goldberg, spoke about drainage and flooding. He then said that he
had asked about a large construction trailer on the center of the property that had been left. He asked the
town to remove it but they refused. Mayor Cresenzi asked if there were any more comments. Since
there were none he motioned to have the public hearing closed. The Board members unanimously agreed
to close the public portion of the meeting.

Administrator Russo spoke about a report from Dolph Rotfeld about a proposed retainer. A section of
the proposal regarding the scope of the review services under the Village's environmental account under
the applicant's name was eliminated from the agreement. He said that it was recommended by the
Village's planning consultant, F.P. Clark. He also checked other outside references.
